Are You Speaking to Their Greatness or Their Deficiencies? This conversation challenged me in the best way—and I think it will challenge you too. I sat down with relationship coaches Jocelyn and Aaron Freeman, and we didn't hold back. We got into the real, unfiltered truth about what makes a relationship thrive and what quietly breaks it down over time. And I'll be honest—I learned a lot about myself in this one. We talked about why most couples argue the same way every time, how we start talking to our partner's flaws instead of their potential, and how easy it is to stop being curious about the person we love the most. That hit me hard. Because curiosity? It's not just a phase when you're dating—it's a choice. When you stay curious, people become more interesting. And when you stop being interested, they stop showing you who they really are. One of the most important takeaways: the “5 Rs” the Freemans teach—Reflect, Responsibility, Reconnect, Remind, Reconcile. It's a practical framework that helps couples come back from conflict stronger. But what stood out even more was this mindset they kept coming back to: we're on the same team. That phrase alone has the power to stop an argument in its tracks and realign a relationship that feels like it's drifting apart. This episode is packed with real tools, honest moments, and a whole lot of heart. If you're in a relationship—new or decades deep—there's something here for you. You're either training your partner that this is a safe space to share… or you're teaching them to keep it all inside. That's the choice. And I want you to choose connection. Key Takeaways: The most damaging part of conflict isn't the argument—it's the lack of repair after. Learn the 5 Rs to recover and reconnect after a disagreement. “Speaking to your partner's greatness” builds them up and strengthens your bond. Curiosity is the secret to keeping relationships alive and engaging. One person can spark change, but both have to sustain it. You don't have to end the relationship to end the version of it that isn't working. Let this episode be the spark. Listen with your partner. Talk about it. And remember—you're on the same team.

Through his books and public speaking, David A. Robertson has dedicated his career to sharing stories about Indigenous people. His latest book, 52 Ways to Reconcile, is a guide for all of us to take action when it comes to reconciliation — and shows how small acts can have a big impact. Like all of David's work, the book tackles hard truths with a gentle touch and a profound sense of hope. David joins Mattea Roach to talk about educating children on Indigenous histories, how his father influenced his life and work and why "reconciliation" is a journey ... not a destination.If you enjoyed this conversation, check out these episodes:Tanya Talaga: Searching for her great-great grandmother — a story of family, truth and survival Imani Perry: Tracing blue through Black American life

What happens when a "perfect" relationship hits its first major conflict? In this powerful examination of Song of Solomon chapter 5, we explore the moment when everything goes wrong between two people who deeply love each other. The passage takes us right to the heart of relationship breakdown – he arrives home late, she's prepared for an intimate evening but chooses resentment over reconciliation, and what could have been resolved with a few steps to the door becomes a painful journey through the city streets seeking restoration. It's a story that feels uncomfortably familiar to anyone who has ever chosen pride over forgiveness.Through this ancient text, we uncover six relationship problems that still plague us today: prioritizing work over presence, questioning if someone deserves our kindness, the painful irony of longing for space until we get it, pursuing reconnection when someone is unavailable, experiencing unexpected trauma, and watching private struggles become public pain. But more importantly, we discover God's four-step blueprint for healing broken relationships: Repent, Reconcile, Reconnect, and Renew.What makes this message so powerful isn't just its practical wisdom for marriage and friendships, but how it reveals God's heart for reconciliation. When we understand that our own relationship with God follows this same pattern – where He pursues us despite our closed doors and cold hearts – we gain a new perspective on forgiveness. We're reminded that Christ didn't just tell us to fix our relationships; He showed us how by becoming "a friend of sinners" who reconciles us to Himself.Whether you're navigating marriage difficulties, friendship tensions, or family conflicts, this message offers both practical tools for fighting fair and the spiritual foundation for lasting reconciliation. Because ultimately, the goal isn't winning arguments but experiencing the righteousness of God in our relationships.

This Podcast Is Episode 630, And It's About Small Business Administration - Essential Strategies for Contractors Running a small business is exciting, but let's be honest, managing the admin side of things can feel overwhelming. Between keeping financial records, looking after daily operations, and ensuring compliance with tax laws, it's easy to feel buried under endless to-do lists. But here's the good news: with the right strategies, small business administration doesn't have to be a headache. Here are some practical steps to streamline your business admin, save time, and boost productivity, leaving you with more energy to do what you love – whether it's working at the jobsite or growing your business! Why structure is the foundation of success Think of admin tasks as the backbone of your business. If these tasks aren't handled regularly and properly, things can quickly spiral out of control. Staying on top of your admin enables you to see how your business is truly performing, reduce legal risks, and ensure everything runs smoothly.    Here's where accounting software can make your life easier:   Automated Bookkeeping: Track income and expenses without lifting a finger. Payroll Made Simple: Handle staff payments quickly and accurately. Real-Time Insights: Monitor cash flow and performance at a glance. Popular tools like Xero or QuickBooks are ideal for small construction businesses seeking to streamline administrative tasks. And the best part? They store everything digitally, ensuring you're audit-ready at any time. Go digital with your records. Paper receipts and ledgers are so last decade. Not only do they accumulate unnecessarily, but they're also at risk of being lost or damaged. Transitioning to digital records is a crucial step toward administrative efficiency. Here's how to make it happen: Scan and Upload Receipts: Use mobile apps to digitize paper invoices. Cloud Storage: Securely store records online for easy access and backups. Spreadsheets or Software: Use spreadsheets for basic tracking or invest in platforms that allow you to tag and code transactions instantly.  Digital records reduce clutter and make year-end tasks, such as taxes, much easier. Organize the administration with task breakdowns. Breaking admin tasks into daily, weekly, monthly, and annual routines will make them feel more manageable. Treat them like habits – they may be small tasks, but they add up to make a significant impact. Daily Tasks Devote just 15–20 minutes a day to knock out small but essential tasks like: Checking emails and responding to client queries. Logging sales and expenses into your accounting software. Scanning new receipts or invoices. Weekly Tasks Dedicate time weekly to review your business's operational health: Pay suppliers and review outstanding invoices. Reconcile accounts to ensure everything has been logged correctly. Schedule social media or post updates to engage your audience. Monthly Tasks At the end of each month, set aside time for: Payroll processing (if you have employees). Reviewing inventory levels and replenishing stock. Analyzing your profit margins or hitting sales targets. Annual Tasks The big picture matters, too! Annually, focus on: Preparing your taxes (or outsourcing them). Reviewing your business plan and setting goals. Evaluating ongoing contracts, insurance, or subscriptions. Breaking tasks into bite-sized chunks will help you stay on track and avoid falling behind. Tip: Set calendar reminders to stay on track! Pro Tip: Ask us about our "Five For Five at Five" When to consider outsourcing? If the admin is still consuming too much of your time, outsourcing can be a game-changer. Hiring a virtual assistant, part-time administrator, bookkeeper, or accountant can free up your schedule for high-impact tasks. Here are some options to consider: Virtual Assistants can handle tasks such as appointment scheduling, data entry, and email management. Accountants and bookkeepers can ensure accuracy and compliance with tax laws, saving you from costly errors. Freelancers or part-time administrative staff can step in as needed without the cost of hiring full-time employees. Outsourcing doesn't just reduce your workload – it also gives you peace of mind that specialists are handling complex tasks. Important Consideration:   Specialized accountants understand the nuances of the construction industry, including project costing and compliance with tax regulations, enabling them to provide tailored financial solutions. This expertise is crucial for navigating the complexities associated with managing construction finances and ensuring that your financial records are accurate and compliant with applicable laws.   Moreover, outsourcing minimizes the risk of errors that can arise from doing-it-yourself (DIY) accounting. Experienced specialists leverage advanced accounting software to track expenses, monitor cash flow, and prepare detailed financial reports. This precision not only aids in effective decision-making but also helps identify areas for cost savings and revenue growth. By having accurate and timely financial information, you can make informed decisions that positively impact your bottom line.   In Summary   Build a Sustainable Routine The key to effective administration in your construction business lies in consistency. Use Digital Tools: Leverage technology to stay organized and automate repetitive tasks, from invoicing to document management. Establish Routines: Make your administrative tasks part of your daily or weekly habits to prevent them from piling up. Seek Expertise: Don't hesitate to get help when necessary. Whether through software or professionals, utilizing available resources can free you to focus on your core business. By implementing these practices, you can establish a foundation for efficient operations and enhanced profitability in your construction business. If you're looking for assistance in streamlining your administrative processes, don't hesitate to reach out! Whether you have questions about your finances or need guidance on better practices, I am here to help. It's time to work smarter, not harder.

She is the leading expert in managing outsourced construction bookkeeping and accounting services companies and cash management accounting for small construction companies across the USA. She encourages Contractors and Construction Company Owners to stay current on their tax obligations and offers insights on managing the remaining cash flow to operate and grow their construction company sales and profits so they can put more money in the bank.

Questions are being raised over the reported recommendation against building a new Model 3 hospital in the Mid-West region. HSE Mid-West has reportedly recommended not constructing such a hospital. That's despite numerous calls for a Model 3 hospital in the region. The reported recommendation has been described as “very difficult to reconcile with the persistent crisis in unscheduled emergency care at University Hospital Limerick (UHL)”. That comment came from the Independent MEP for Ireland South, Michael McNamara, who joined Alan Morrissey this morning... Photo(C): Tharakorn arunothai via canva

Trump's win exposed political tensions between Arab-American voters — who were critical of Democratic support of Israel's war in Gaza, and Black voters — who remain the Democrats' most loyal supporters. That friction is especially pronounced in the majority Arab city of Dearborn, Michigan, and its majority Black neighbor, Detroit. This week, we go to a testy iftar dinner where Arab and Black folks sat down to begin having tough conversations.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Paul says to the church at Galatia, “So Christ has truly set us free.” What did Jesus set us free from? What put us in bondage to begin with? And the answer to that question is found in Paul's letter to them, “The Law,” and in particular, they have listened to false teachers and have been convinced they, as Gentiles, need to be circumcised and follow the law. Paul makes it clear, if they follow the law, Christ is no effect to them, and they have been cut off from Christ. If you're cut off from something, you have been removed and there is a separation. It goes back to the Garden of Eden, when man chose to sin, they were separated from God, and man has tried to reconcile that relationship ever since but everything we do is not good enough. It can only happen in Jesus!

The New Direction  Through vanishing old road,Through hail-like dust storm,It stings and scratches,Stuffy, I cannot breathe.Here once walked my ancestors,I was told by the old ones,One can dig at the very spot,And find forgotten implements.Wasting no time I urged on,Where I'd stop I knew not,Startled I listened to the wind,It whistled, screamed, cried,"You! Go back, not this path!"Then I recalled this trailSwept away by the north wind,It wasn't for me to follow,The trail of the Long Walk.Deciding between two cultures,I gave a second thought,Reluctantly I took the new one,The paved rainbow highway.I had found a new direction.by Emerson Blackhorse MitchellThis Week: Spring + Fall begins to build and blossom.

Today on The Social, Prince Harry wants to reconcile with the Royal Family. Then, should you have the right to search your adult child's room? And, former US soccer star Carli Lloyd is apologizing to her teammates for prioritizing success over their relationships.

Prince Harry has lost his legal challenge over the level of security he receives while in the UK and described the ruling as an "establishment stitch-up". He says the decision leaves him unable to safely bring his wife and children back to Britain.  In a new interview with the BBC, the Duke of Sussex spoke about his estranged relationship with his family, revealing the King won't "speak to him". But could they reconcile?   On today's Sky News Daily, Matt Barbet speaks to royal correspondent Rhiannon Mills about Harry's latest comments, the court ruling, and whether reconciliation with the Royal Family is still possible.  

When Congress returns from spring break next week, its first order of business will be writing a budget reconciliation bill that's expected to cut taxes but also make deep cuts to Medicaid. But at least some Republicans are concerned about cutting a program that aids so many of their constituents.

Alice Miranda Ollstein of Politico, Tami Luhby of CNN, and Sarah Karlin-Smith of the Pink Sheet join KFF Health News' Julie Rovner to discuss these breaking stories and more. Also this week, Rovner interviews KFF Health News' Rae Ellen Bichell about her story on how care for transgender minors is changing in Colorado.

One down, 47 to go.With Donald Trump's first month in office coming to a close, we are seeing something that feels a bit more familiar. According to three recent polls, his approval rating is now underwater—meaning more people disapprove of him than approve. This is still essentially the same conversation we were having before. There are deeply entrenched beliefs on both sides, with some convinced he is doing a terrible job and others believing he is performing tremendously.Keep Politics Politics Politics alive! Get two bonus episodes each week! Upgrade to paid!The numbers reflect this divide. A CNN SSRS poll shows Trump's approval at 47% with 52% disapproving. Similarly, a Reuters Ipsos poll reports 44% approval and 51% disapproval, while Gallup's latest survey records a 45% approval and 51% disapproval. I have seen other numbers where he remains above 50% and in net positive territory, but the general trend suggests that the more people hear his name, the less they seem to like him.Sound familiar?At the heart of this, however, is the same issue that contributed to Joe Biden's defeat: the economy. Economic fears and anxieties remain high, and now that people are reminded of both the speed and the sheer volume—both in quantity and loudness—of the Trump administration, there's a sense of, “Ah, okay, here we go again.” If the economy rebounds, Trump could find himself in a very strong position. But if it does not, whatever mandate he might have had will quickly evaporate.It's worth noting that we still have the majority of Trump's first 100 days ahead of us, though you'd be forgiven for forgetting that as it feels like he's been in office for six months.
