Ephesians 6 teaches that the helmet of salvation protects the mind, where fear, temptation, and lies begin. Salvation isn't just a past decision but a daily reality that reshapes how we think and live. Scripture, the Spirit, and the practices of faith help believers replace false thoughts with truth. When we guard our minds, old habits lose their grip and new, Christ-centered lives take shape.
The episode centers on practical approaches for Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and IT leaders assessing artificial intelligence (AI) adoption, with David Espindola detailing the crucial distinction between “maker,” “shaper,” and “taker” strategies. David Espindola emphasizes that organizations must intentionally decide their role in AI development and use—whether building proprietary systems, shaping solutions atop existing models, or simply consuming pre-built capabilities. This decision, he notes, is foundational for aligning risk tolerance, investment, and technical capacity with business goals, especially given the rapid pace and inherent uncertainty in AI's evolution.Supporting this framework, David Espindola references insights from a Small Business Administration project, which found that most small businesses are struggling to define applicable use cases for AI and tend toward risk-avoidant stances despite external pressures to adopt the technology. He stresses that AI implementation should not be a solution in search of a problem; rather, an organization's readiness, risk, investment capability, and specific industry context must determine its approach. Key recommendations include conducting readiness assessments, appointing internal AI champions, and starting with small, low-risk pilot projects to build internal understanding and governance processes before scaling.The discussion broadens to ethical and governance considerations, with both David Espindola and the host cautioning that responsible AI adoption is a business necessity rather than a compliance checkbox. They advocate for formal employee training, the establishment of clear usage policies, and strict controls over tool access to mitigate risks such as data leakage, hallucinated outputs, and misaligned communications. The emphasis is on building practical safeguards rather than pursuing AI for its own sake, reflecting a pragmatic, risk-managed approach tailored to each organization's context.For MSPs and IT service providers, the practical takeaways are clear: pursuing AI adoption requires a methodical, risk-aware strategy focused on business relevance, operational governance, and targeted experimentation. The harms of rushed deployments, poor change management, or lack of internal education are underscored, with the implication that long-term value and reduced exposure are found in deliberate, well-governed adoption efforts. Readiness assessments, pilot programs, and robust policy frameworks emerge as the primary enablers of sustainable outcomes in this rapidly evolving landscape.
Clinical trial complexity is rising with more procedures, endpoints, and technology, yet sites are turning these pressures into pathways for improvement. In this episode of WCG Talks Trials, host Jenna Goeller sits down with Trevor Cole to unpack practical ways research sites sustain readiness, build resilience, and spark innovation amid frequent protocol amendments and technology overload. Together, they explore what's changing on the ground and how sites are responding with stronger feasibility reviews, capacity planning, streamlined protocol advocacy, and risk‑proportionate oversight – all grounded in Quality by Design and the updated ICH E6(R3) guidance.Listeners will hear data‑driven insights on:The operational ripple effects of complexity, including resource strain, rework from amendments, and tech support burdens, and what's working to reduce them.Day‑to‑day applications of risk‑based quality management, data governance, and proportionality to protect participant safety and data integrity.Culture and maturity for empowering teams, mapping processes before SOPs, continuous training, Correction and Preventive Action (CAPA) discipline, and knowledge sharing across silos.How sponsors and CROs can better support sites through integrated technology, protocol simplification, early collaboration, and transparent communications.Turning complexity into growth by investing in people and processes, using fit‑for‑purpose tech (including selective AI use), and engaging local communities.Speakers:Jenna Goeller, Associate Director, Clinical Trial Insights & Analytics, WCGTrevor Cole, Program Director, Clinical Solutions & Partnering, WCG

In today's Daily Shift, we explore the pressure many people feel to force readiness — to decide, move on, or feel okay before their body is truly prepared. Readiness isn't something you push yourself into. It arrives when your nervous system feels safe enough to integrate what it's been holding. When we override that process, we often move forward while parts of us are still bracing, which can make progress feel heavier than it needs to be. This episode offers permission to slow down and trust the timing of your body, without judgment or urgency. In this episode, we explore: Why readiness can't be forced How pressure can override important internal signals The difference between being stuck and still integrating What readiness can look like without urgency A gentle reminder from today's shift: You don't need to push yourself into readiness Waiting can be a form of self-respect Permission creates clarity Take a pause and allow your body the space it needs to arrive in its own time.
This week's "At her Career Crossroads" insight comes from me, Dr. Robin. "You are not at a crossroads because you're confused. You're at a crossroads because you're ready. Readiness often feels like discomfort, not chaos, but restlessness, not panic, but misalignment, not fear, but a gentle insistence that something more true is calling." Here are 3 reasons why you should listen to this episode: You might be feeling a quiet restlessness, even though everything in your life looks successful — I talk about why that feeling matters. I share what I've learned from working with high-achieving women who've reached this same moment — and why it's not about burnout or crisis. If you're craving clarity or asking yourself, "What's next?" — this episode will help you recognize that this isn't the end of a chapter, it's the beginning of your next one. I'm Dr. Robin, a professor, speaker, author, and the creator of the PurposeMAKER™ philosophy. In this solo episode, I'm sharing what it really feels like to reach a career crossroads — and how you can meet it with clarity, direction, and purpose.

On today's episode of The Wholesome Fertility Podcast, I'm joined by Margaret Cali, a Fertility and Mindset Coach and founder of Cali Coaching. Margaret shares her deeply personal fertility journey, which began at age 25 and included miscarriage, PCOS, medication complications, emotional burnout, and years of feeling lost and disconnected from herself. After stepping away from the relentless cycle of trying to conceive and focusing on healing her nervous system, mindset, and emotional wellbeing, Margaret went on to conceive successfully through IVF at age 40. Her story is a powerful reminder that fertility is not just a medical journey, it is an emotional, mental, and whole-body experience. In this conversation, we explore what burnout during fertility really looks like, why emotional support is so often missing from fertility care, and how rebuilding your inner world can transform not only your fertility journey, but your life. Margaret also shares the tools that helped her heal and introduces her RISE Method, an emotional readiness approach designed to support women at every stage of trying to conceive. Key Takeaways: Fertility struggles affect the nervous system, identity, and emotional wellbeing, not just the body Burnout can block your ability to receive, restore, and reconnect with yourself Emotional healing is not time wasted, it is foundational to fertility and long-term wellbeing Small, consistent shifts create powerful transformation over time You don't have to carry the emotional weight of fertility alone Guest Bio: Margaret Cali (@margaretcali.au) is a Fertility and Mindset Coach and founder of Cali Coaching. After a decade-long fertility journey marked by miscarriages, PCOS, medication complications, and profound emotional burnout, Margaret spent five years rebuilding her inner world. That transformation later paved the way for her successful IVF journey at age 40. Drawing from her lived experience, 30 years in education, and her commitment to filling the emotional gap in fertility care, Margaret developed The RISE Method, an emotional readiness approach that helps women reconnect with themselves, strengthen their resilience, and navigate fertility challenges with clarity and calm. Her work is grounded in the philosophy that guided her own healing: to embrace the process, transform with purpose, and empower your future. This guiding belief is one she now shares with women who feel lost, overwhelmed, or disconnected during their fertility journey. Margaret now supports women at every stage of trying to conceive, helping them feel emotionally prepared, deeply understood, and anchored in hope.

The GoGaddis Real Estate Radio Show with Cleveland (Cleve) Gaddis | Atlanta Housing & Market Insight Presented by Modern Traditions Realty Group www.moderntraditionsrealty.com The Atlanta market is entering a historic new chapter, and it isn't just about the homes—it's about how we get our information. In this 12-minute segment of The Go Gaddis Real Estate Radio Show, we tackle the major shifts affecting homeowners and buyers across the Metro area, from the end of a 157-year local printing tradition to the "buyability" questions every family should ask this season. We start with the weekly Atlanta Market updates. Then, "News You Can Use" regarding a significant cultural shift: the Atlanta Journal-Constitution (AJC) has officially printed its final daily physical edition as of December 31, 2025, moving to a fully digital future to start 2026. We discuss what this move toward "Digital First" means for local community connectivity and how real estate news is following a similar path toward high-tech transparency. Finally, we address a common struggle for many Atlanta market shoppers: the psychological pressure to "jump in" versus the reality of being financially and emotionally prepared. We move past the hype to give you a solid "Readiness Checklist" so you can move when the time is right for you, not just the market. Listener Question: "Am I Ready to Buy?" Martin from Marietta asks: "I keep hearing I should ask myself certain questions before buying—but how do I really know if I'm ready, or just feeling pressure?" Cleve breaks down the 5-step "Ready-to-Buy" reality check: Stable Employment: Do you have a steady source of income and a reliable job history for the last 2-3 years? Affordability Mastery: Have you calculated your "BuyAbility," ensuring your total housing costs (including taxes and insurance) stay under 28-29% of your gross income? The "Just in Case" Fund: Beyond your down payment, do you have a separate emergency fund covering at least 3-6 months of expenses? The 5-Year Horizon: Do you plan to live in the home long enough to offset closing costs and benefit from long-term appreciation? Your Professional A-Team: Do you have a hyper-local real estate agent and a trusted lender already in place to guide your strategy? Want more local real estate insights?

In the fourth session of our Return of Christ Conference, Pastor Maiola calls us to develop a ready faith - a faith that actively prepares for the return of Jesus Christ rather than passively waiting or becoming distracted by speculation. He reminds believers that the purpose of end-times teaching is not curiosity about signs, but transformation of life. Paul's instruction to the church in Thessalonica makes clear that readiness for Christ's return is expressed through obedience, sanctification, and faithful living. Readiness is not found in staring into the sky, abandoning responsibilities, or disengaging from the world, but in faithfully obeying Christ in everyday life. Maiola emphasizes that true faith produces real fruit. Salvation is not merely intellectual belief or simply praying the sinner's prayer, but a life-altering trust in Jesus that leads to repentance, growth, and obedience. Sanctification is God's will for every believer - a joyful process of becoming more like Christ as we prepare to meet Him. As we wait for the Lord's return, we are encouraged to live as a bride eagerly preparing for her Bridegroom—marked by holiness, love, faithfulness, and mission. As believers fix their hope on Christ's return, they are called to live awake, obedient, and ready, echoing the prayer of the early church: "Come, Lord Jesus."
In the last Return of Christ Conference session, the focus turns to a hope that never disappoints. A hope anchored not in circumstances or emotion but in the unchanging promises of God. Drawing from Proverbs 13, Psalm 130, and the New Testament, Pastor Waxer reminds believers that while people and situations often let us down, God never will. Through Scripture, Biblical hope is not denial of suffering, but confident trust rooted in the faithfulness of God. Because salvation has been secured through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, believers possess a living hope - an imperishable inheritance given to us by God Himself. This hope enables us to wait, endure, and persevere, even when our present circumstances feel heavy or uncertain. Believers are called to live with expectancy, readiness, and watchfulness—not in fear or frantic anticipation, but in faithful obedience, moral clarity, and surrendered devotion. Readiness is not perfection, but presence—a heart aligned with God, hands faithfully stewarding what He has entrusted, and eyes lifted toward the coming King. This is a hope that will not let us down, as we echo the final prayer of Scripture: "Come, Lord Jesus."

Today's guest is Martin Bingisser. Martin is the founder of HMMR Media, one of the most trusted independent voices in throws and track & field education. A former competitive hammer thrower, Martin blends firsthand experience with deep historical and technical insight to analyze training methods, athlete development, and coaching culture. Through articles, videos, and interviews, his work bridges elite practice and practical coaching, earning him respect from coaches and performance professionals around the world. In a world of rapid-information delivery and short attention spans, the wisdom of master coaches is becoming increasingly rare. Martin has spent substantial time with two legends in the coaching world, Anatoliy Bondarchuk and Vern Gambetta. Spending time discussing the work of the past, and wisdom through the present is a critical practice in forming an effective coaching viewpoint. On today's episode I chat with Martin in a wide-ranging conversation in coaching lessons on efficiency, adaptability, and performing under pressure (two throws, no warmups, huge crowds). We transition into Bondarchuk's training philosophy: exercise classification, consistency, “strength” as sport-specific force production, and why weight-room PRs can distract from performance. The episode closes with motor-learning insights on rhythm, holistic cues, and how Vern Gambetta's “general” work complements specificity.

(https://www.just-fly-sports.com/podcast-home/) Timestamps 0:00 – Martin's background and training lens 7:05 – Why eccentric strength matters 15:40 – Isometric intent and force expression 24:30 – Tendons, stiffness, and elastic qualities 33:50 – Managing fatigue in strength training 42:15 – Applying eccentric and isometric work 51:20 – Athlete readiness and daily adjustment 1:00:10 – Long term development and durability Actionable Takeaways 7:05 – Eccentric strength underpins many performance qualities Martin explains that eccentric capacity sets the foundation for braking, deceleration, and re acceleration. Stronger eccentric abilities allow athletes to tolerate higher forces with less breakdown. Use controlled eccentric work to improve robustness without chasing constant intensity. 15:40 – Isometrics depend on intent, not just position Holding a position is not enough to drive adaptation. Martin emphasizes producing force into the immovable position to create meaningful stimulus. Cue effort and intent during isometrics instead of passively holding time. 24:30 – Tendon stiffness supports speed and efficiency Tendons transmit force, they do not just store it. Training should respect gradual loading to avoid disrupting tendon health. Elastic qualities improve when stiffness and timing are trained together. 33:50 – Fatigue management shapes training quality Not all fatigue is productive. Martin highlights watching bar speed, coordination, and effort quality to guide decisions. End sets when movement quality degrades rather than chasing prescribed numbers. 42:15 – Match training tools to the desired adaptation Eccentrics, isometrics, and dynamics all serve different purposes. Martin stresses selecting methods based on the adaptation you want, not trends. Blend methods thoughtfully instead of stacking stressors blindly. 51:20 – Daily readiness should influence loading Athletes do not arrive the same every day. Use simple readiness cues like bar speed and coordination to adjust training. Flexibility in programming helps preserve long term progress. 1:00:10 – Durability is built over time, not rushed Long term development requires patience and consistency. Martin reinforces gradual progression to protect connective tissue. not short term peaks. Quotes from Martin Bingisser “Eccentric strength is what allows athletes to absorb and redirect force safely.” “An isometric only works if there is intent behind it.” “Tendons are not passive structures, they are active contributors to performance.” “Fatigue is not the enemy, but unmanaged fatigue is.” “You have to choose training tools based on what you want to adapt.” “Readiness is not about feelings, it is about what you observe.” “Durability comes from respecting time and progression.” About Martin Bingisser Martin Bingisser is the founder of HMMR Media, one of the most respected independent platforms covering throws, strength training, and track & field performance. A former competitive hammer thrower, Martin combines firsthand athletic experience with a sharp analytical eye to break down training theory, competition trends, and athlete development across all levels of the sport. Through HMMR Media, he produces in-depth articles, interviews, videos, and educational resources that bridge the gap between elite coaching practice and accessible learning. His work is known for its clarity, historical context, and willingness to challenge oversimplified narratives in modern training. Martin has collaborated with coaches, athletes, and federations worldwide, and his content is widely used by throws coaches, sport scientists, and performance professionals seeking thoughtful, evidence-informed perspectives. His approach emphasizes long-term athlete development, technical mastery, and the craft of coaching; making him a trusted voice in the global track and field community.
I feel like there's been a lot of conversation lately about the Chinese zodiac and the year we're moving out of, which is the Year of the Wood Snake. That year comes to an end on February 16, and then on February 17, according to the Chinese zodiac, we move into the Year of the Fire Horse. Even if you don't follow the Chinese New Year, I've really appreciated how this way of marking time gives us an opportunity to slow down, reflect, and check our own reality. In this episode, I share why the energy of the Wood Snake has felt so accurate for this past year, with its focus on shedding, releasing, and doing the inner work that helps clear the way. I share what this year of the Wood Snake has looked like for me, including the purging, the releasing, and the work of letting go of what drains my peace. On today's Wise Walk, we focus on creating space and readiness so that when the energy of the Fire Horse arrives, it's the things that truly matter that gain momentum. Are you open to using this conversation as a way to go deeper within yourself and notice what feels meaningful right now? What are you willing to look at, release, forgive, or let go of so you can make space for the energy of the Fire Horse? Are you open to the opportunities that this new energy may bring? What limiting beliefs in your life are you ready to let go of? What is this snake energy calling you to release so you can make space for your highest and best self? If you feel aligned emotionally or energetically, what physical or material possessions are you ready to release? Are there emails, apps, conversations, or items in your space that you are ready to let go of? How can you reflect on both the snake and horse's energies to ready yourself for a year when action meets purpose? As you reflect on the past year, what are you ready to release and how do you envision your own rebirth? Are there relationships you need to release and relationships you want to nourish and invest in more fully? What tasks have you been avoiding that you could clear now so they do not drain your energy moving forward? What limiting beliefs can you make peace with and reframe through gratitude? What is something you need to forgive yourself for so your energy can move forward freely? What unhealthy habits are no longer serving you and are ready to be released? In what other ways can you take yourself on a Wise Walk and reflect on the shift from snake energy to horse energy? What resonated with you in this episode and what ideas feel like they are yours to carry forward? I feel like this snake energy has helped me release what was draining me and let go of things that no longer light me up. That readiness is what allows me to invite in the Fire Horse energy of opportunity, action, and purpose, and I hope that's true for you as well. As always, I'd love to hear what you took away from today's episode, so feel free to reach out and share. I also look forward to next Thursday's Wise Walk. Until then, please be sure to prioritize fun as you read the signs, direct your path, and get your stride on. In this episode: [03:11] I love how the Chinese zodiac is represented by a different animal each year. I was born in the year of the Tiger. The animal is also paired with an element. [04:05] As I look back on this past year, I feel very aligned with the year of the wood snake. It represents deep inner work and the need to shed. It represents an opportunity to let go of anything that drains your peace. [05:03] I've been releasing things this past year. When I step into the year of the fire horse it's all about taking action and gaining momentum. [06:06] If you're carrying anything with you into the year of the fire horse, that's what's going to gain momentum. [07:08] I've been thinking about areas of my life that I want to release, so I won't bring them into this next year. [08:01] I've also been working on limiting beliefs around my body, and I've been working on my ability to squat. [09:06] As I work on my squat I say to myself, "I am safe". I don't want to move forward with a limiting belief. [10:04] One of the ways that we can reframe limiting beliefs is to usher them out and find gratitude and reinforce that we are safe and doing our best. [11:08] I also share a limiting belief a friend of mine had about her sleep hygiene. [12:16] In the past year we've acknowledged our limiting beliefs, and like the snake we're going to release them. We are going to create positive self-talk and give ourselves support when we need it. [14:14] When purging material possessions, I asked what I would miss if it were lost in some type of disaster. If I wouldn't miss these things, then it's a clear go. Another question to ask is would I replace them with the money that I have? [17:26] You have the opportunity to get rid of anything that is draining you or preventing you from being your highest self at this moment. [21:09] There are so many areas of my life where I feel ready. I feel like the snake energy has helped me release things that have drained me. Memorable Quotes: "The year of the Wood Snake represents an opportunity to let go of anything that drains your peace and to disconnect from anything that prevents you from stepping into your full power." - Mary Tess "If you carry something into the year of the Fire Horse, that is what will gain momentum in your life." - Mary Tess "Whenever we have a limiting belief, we get to counteract that with positive self-talk." - Mary Tess "Just because something had meaning in the past doesn't mean it has meaning in the present in the same way." - Mary Tess Links and Resources: Mary Tess Rooney Email Heart Value Colette Baron-Reid Facebook | LinkedIn | Twitter | Instagram
In this episode of The Mortgage Show, Chris and Randy break down a rollercoaster week in the mortgage world. They dig into the brief dip into the 5s, why it didn't last, and what actually drives rate movement behind the scenes, including mortgage-backed securities, global factors, and inflation pressure.They also talk real-world strategy, when refinancing actually makes sense, how to be ready when rates move, why fast closings matter more than ever, and what borrowers can do to put themselves in a position to win.

Technology modernization in manufacturing is not a list of shiny tools. It is a sequencing problem. In this episode of Manufacturing Hub, Vlad Romanov and Dave Griffith break down why the executive vision for AI often collides with the reality of the plant floor, and what a practical path forward actually looks like when you account for data quality, legacy controls, networking, and the true cost of integration.A core theme in this conversation is imperfect information. Leaders often believe the data already exists because reports exist. But a stack of paper, a few spreadsheets, or a single counter value is not the same as contextualized, trustworthy history that can drive decisions or support advanced analytics. Vlad and Dave walk through why foundational work matters, what teams usually miss during modernization, and how quickly the bill grows when you discover your architecture is outdated, undocumented, or full of dependencies you cannot see until you open panels and start tracing signals.You will also hear a grounded debate on how to think about SCADA, MES, historians, dashboards, and what it would actually mean to “feed data into AI” in a manufacturing context. The takeaway is simple. If you want better outcomes, you need a better understanding of your current state, a clear business case, and a roadmap that prioritizes what matters operationally. Modernization is not one big upgrade. It is a series of decisions that either reduce friction or create it.About the hostsVlad Romanov is an industrial automation and manufacturing expert focused on plant assessments, controls and data architecture, IT and OT integration, and workforce upskilling. Vlad has over 10 years of experience across large manufacturers and complex multi site environments, working from PLC and HMI layers up through SCADA, MES, and ERP integration programs. He is the founder of Joltek, where the mission is to help manufacturers modernize safely, build internal capability, and deliver results that actually survive handoff to operations.Learn more about Joltekhttps://www.joltek.comhttps://www.joltek.com/servicesDave Griffith is an industrial automation practitioner and consultant who works closely with manufacturers to modernize legacy environments, improve reliability, and build practical systems that operators and maintenance teams can support.

Dr. Ryan Gray and Dr. Christine Crispin break down a realistic path from freshman year through application season. First year, be a college student: master study habits, time management, and campus life. Then add experiences gradually—a toe‑dip into service or shadowing—without sacrificing grades. Map your courses to the MCAT at your institution, and use advising sparingly but strategically to avoid wrong turns. Learn how small, consistent hours in clinical work, non‑clinical service, and shadowing compound over time and why research is valuable but not required unless you're MD‑PhD bound. They clarify what truly counts as clinical, how to choose non‑clinical service when options are limited, and why reflection and authenticity—not themes and checkboxes—elevate your application. You'll also hear how to decide on a gap year, the real risk of applying later in a rolling admissions process, and a practical plan for letters of recommendation, including committee letter pitfalls. This conversation replaces pressure with...
Vincent Stoffer, Field Chief Technology Officer at Corelight, shares his predictions for 2026 and what security teams should prepare for in the coming year. With nearly a decade at Corelight and a background in network and security engineering, Stoffer brings a unique perspective on where the industry is heading.The conversation explores the emergence of the agentic SOC, where AI agents work alongside human analysts to accelerate detection, response, and incident resolution. Stoffer explains that while the protocols and tools have been in development, 2026 is the year organizations will finally see these capabilities deliver real results. The key differentiator, he notes, is data quality. Tools that provide rich, detailed, and comprehensive network evidence will thrive in this AI-enabled environment.Stoffer also addresses the persistent threat from nation-state actors, particularly China's Typhoon campaigns targeting critical infrastructure. From energy and telecoms to international partners, these threats continue to expand with AI-powered acceleration. Understanding your environment and detecting anomalous behavior remains essential for organizations facing these sophisticated adversaries.The discussion concludes with a look at post-quantum readiness. While quantum computing threats may be 10 to 20 years away, Stoffer emphasizes the importance of understanding cryptographic assets now. Corelight has published a white paper detailing how NDR provides the network visibility needed to locate cryptographic assets and plan migration to quantum-ready cipher suites.This is a Brand Highlight.

Executive Pastor, Dr. Stephen Trammell, shares that the parable of the talents in Matthew 25:14-30 reveals how believers can live meaningfully while anticipating Christ's return. God entrusts each person with resources according to their abilities, expecting faithful stewardship rather than fearful inaction. Two servants doubled their investments through wise action, while one buried his talent out of fear and misunderstanding of his master's character. Faithfulness requires both faith and action across all areas of life - finances, relationships, health, and spiritual growth. God will reward those who prove faithful during this time between Christ's first and second coming. Your belief determines where you spend eternity, but your behavior determines how you spend eternity.

Is fitness biblical? How should Christian women approach health and exercise? How do I get healthy without burnout as a mom? This episode is for you. What You'll Learn Why biblical health is about abundant life, not shrinking or control How guilt and all-or-nothing thinking sabotage Christian women's health Why movement can be an act of worship and stewardship How to build sustainable fitness and nutrition habits without burnout What it means to pursue health in a way that honors God and your season of life The Scriptures Covered John 10:10 – Health rooted in abundance, not restriction 1 Corinthians 9:24–27 – Discipline without extremes Matthew 24:44 – Readiness for calling and responsibility Hebrews 12:1 – Letting go of guilt and unnecessary weight Helpful Resources The Stronger Collective A Christ-centered fitness and nutrition community for women who want structure, accountability, and sustainable habits—without burnout.
Sterile processing doesn't run on magic, despite what we may sometimes think. In today's interview, we're joined by Angela Benson, a sterile processing education specialist, to talk about what really happens to our instruments long before they ever reach the back table. From decontamination and assembly to sterilization, documentation, and case cart build, this conversation pulls back the curtain on the complex, detail-driven work that makes surgery possible. We also dive into common points of miscommunication, misconceptions about SPD, and how simple things, like better communication, pre-treatment, and mutual respect, can make a huge difference for teams on both sides of the red line. #operatingroom #ornurse #sterileprocessing #scrubtech #surgery

Distance learning doesn't fail because of tools—it falters when leadership, policy, and systems don't align around student success. In this episode, Seth Fleischauer and Allyson Mitchell sit down with Dr. Alexandra Salas, founder and CEO of the Delmarva Digital Learning Association, to unpack what institutional readiness for digital learning actually requires.Drawing on her experience in higher education leadership, instructional design, and nonprofit systems change, Dr. Salas challenges the idea that digital learning is merely a delivery mode. Instead, she frames it as a connective infrastructure—one that can support access, belonging, wellness, and persistence when designed intentionally.The conversation moves beyond emergency remote learning to examine how organizations evaluate readiness, why frameworks matter, and what leaders must confront if digital learning is going to meaningfully support students rather than strain them.What This Episode ExploresWhy digital learning should be evaluated at the systems level—not course by courseThe difference between emergency remote teaching and sustainable digital learningHow leadership, governance, policy, and student support services shape online successWhy “online readiness” is about people and structures as much as platformsThe role of reflection frameworks (Quality Matters, OLC, ISTE, and others) in continuous improvementHow wellness, trauma-informed practices, and student belonging intersect with distance learningWhat teaching yoga online revealed about presence, connection, and learning in virtual spacesWhy distance learning is better understood as connected, accessible, future-ready learningGolden MomentDr. Salas shares an early career story from her time as an instructional designer—partnering with faculty to bring courses like anthropology, chemistry, and Arabic online before large-scale platforms made it commonplace. The moment highlights a recurring theme of the episode: trust, curiosity, and collaboration matter more than tools when innovation involves real change.Why Distance Learning?In Dr. Salas's words, distance learning isn't about distance at all. It's about access, inclusion, and possibility—especially for learners in rural or underserved communities. When aligned with strong leadership and intentional systems, digital learning becomes a bridge rather than a substitute.Mentioned Work & ResourcesDelmarva Digital Learning Association — https://delmarvadla.orgUnited States Distance Learning Association - https://usdla.org/Bestemming Yoga — https://www.bestemmingyoga.com/meet-ytNumbers and Sense by Alexandra SalasQuality Matters, OLC, Blackboard, and ISTE digital learning frameworks (referenced conceptually)Host LinksDiscover more virtual learning opportunities at CILC.org with hosts Tami Moehring and Allyson Mitchell.Seth Fleischauer's Banyan Global Learning combines live virtual field trips with international student collaborations for a unique K12 global learning experience.

We must be sober and ready, clothed in the armor of God. And today, we heard about the shoes—“the readiness given by the gospel of peace” (Ephesians 6:14-18). Peace—what peace? Romans 5 says we were enemies of God, now reconciled through Jesus. That peace is not a mood; it's a new status that births a new spirit. Ephesians 2:14 says this peace can spread horizontally, breaking tribal walls. Without it, we elevate our tribe, banish “those people,” and never own our own need. With it, we become peacemakers. Richard Morgan, an atheist moderating Dawkins' website, printed months of vicious comments aimed at Pastor David Robertson—and David's steady, non-anxious kindness. That witness won him. Peacemaking is not soft; it's a weapon. Shoes mean movement. What moves the church forward is not shepherding schemes, TV glitz, small-group fads, social niceness, or celebrity cool. The world is drowning in image and hunger for the real. Jesus is the real. The gospel of peace is the power. That's why we fight for simplicity here: pray, praise, preach, the table, fellowship (Acts 2:42). We won't boast in buildings or methods (1 Corinthians 1:26-31). I'm convinced: I can be full of myself, or full of the Spirit. And I want the church Jesus builds (Matthew 16:18), planted firmly in the shoes of the gospel of peace.

So, this week we kicked this one off by wondering where you're actually listening to us (dog walk? treadmill? treestand?… hopefully not on the can...). Then we bounce from ATA into “staying hunt ready” the only way we know how; half gear talk, half real-life chaos, and a little bit of “don't pee into the wind” wisdom that absolutely belongs in a hunting handbook. We recap the feel of ATA this year (more reunion than rave), catch up on seeing partners and buddies in-person, and talk through what actually matters about new gear—specs aside. Latitude's new whitetail-focused packs (Praxis + Flyer) get broken down in plain English: why you'd care, what problems they solve, and which type of hunter they seem built for (from “all-day grind” to “two-hour grab-and-go”). From there we get into the real “hunt ready” stuff: dialing in a quiet and efficient mobile system, small upgrades that make a big difference, shooting through the offseason, and why archery leagues might be the most underrated confidence-builder you can do before fall. And because we can't help ourselves, we go down the broadhead rabbit hole... fixed vs expandable, penetration vs blood trail, and the universal truth: I want my cake and I want to eat it too… and I'd also like to find the deer without needing a drone, a dog, and therapy. We also take a live call from a long-time listener, Noah, talk late-season realities, and end with what we're most excited about next: scouting missions with friends, more in-person guests, and building our own circle—without chasing celebrity hunters or controversy for clicks. Bonus: There's no episode next week (Vegas/SHOT), so enjoy this one while you're shoveling the driveway… or sitting on the can… or pretending you're “working.” Learn more about your ad choices.

People Leave™ — and in 2026, the pace and intensity of transition is accelerating. In this episode, Naomi Hattaway, interim leader and organizational health builder, shares what it actually takes to build nonprofit health through uncertainty before someone resigns. We talk about the hidden fragility that uncertainty exposes (founder dependency, undocumented roles, disengaged boards), and the practical foundations that help teams stay aligned when everything feels on fire.You'll walk away with concrete tools for transition readiness, including how to:Treat turnover as normal — not a crisis — so you plan for departures instead of getting blindsidedBuild real financial resilience with reserves and budgets that account for searches, interims, and transition supportCreate simple documentation so critical knowledge isn't trapped in one person's headGrow “endings literacy” by talking openly about departures, loss, and what it means to leave wellCenter humanity in hard moments with grief-aware practices, dignified layoffs, and stay interviews Because healthy systems don't stop people from leaving — they make it possible for people to leave well.Episode HighlightsUnderstanding Uncertainty in 2026 (02:06)Proactive vs Reactive Approaches (05:39)The Importance of Infrastructure (07:54)Endings Literacy: Navigating Transitions (13:30)Creating a Culture of Grief and Loss (22:00)Leaving Well: The Art of Transition (28:26)Human-Centered Change in High-Stress Environments (31:25)Naomi's One Good Thing (35:07)Dive Deeper:Naomi's WebsiteTransition Archetype QuizEpisode Shownotes: www.weareforgood.com/episode/673Thank you to our partners
