Lisa Martin sees data centers powering a "global infrastructure wave" for the coming years. While she notes short-term headwinds, Lisa sees the A.I. trade "maturing" that will level trade volatility and create a strong foundation for tech growth. Mark Gibbens believes the largest bottleneck to the buildout will be power but sees an A.I. "super cycle" forming once logistics are figured out. He still like Nvidia (NVDA) and hyperscalers like Microsoft (MSFT), Alphabet (GOOGL), and Meta Platforms (META) as strong stock opportunities.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

AI isn't coming for your solopreneur job, but it will happily take your tasks. In this episode, Carly and Joe break down how to turn AI into the world's most over-eager intern: fast, enthusiastic, occasionally clueless, and totally coachable. From using AI without losing your voice…to avoiding “hallucination traps”… to building a GPT that actually remembers what you told it, this episode shows solopreneurs exactly how to manage AI, not get managed by it.FAQs From The Episode:How do I actually ‘train' AI for my business?”Treat it like onboarding a new team member. Upload or paste your brand guidelines, audience description, business plan, examples of your writing, and list of do's/don'ts into a custom GPT. Then, add instructions that reinforce your tone, values, target audience, and preferred outputs. Revisit the training regularly, because AI can “forget” if everything stays in one long chat thread.What tasks should I delegate to AI, and which ones should stay 100% mine?Delegate:Drafting (blogs, emails, social posts)Research summariesBrainstorming ideasRewriting in different tonesOrganizing messy textNever delegate:Strategic thinkingTopic selectionOpinions or point of viewFinal editsAny part of your brand voice that requires nuanceAI can assemble the pieces, but you must decide what the puzzle looks like.How do I keep AI from drifting, forgetting instructions, or making weird mistakes?Use a custom GPT (not just one long chat). Put your recurring instructions directly into the system prompt so they don't fall out of the context window. Reinforce boundaries often (“never use profanity,” “don't use dashes,” etc.), provide examples, and correct mistakes as they happen. Think of it as ongoing performance management. The more feedback and clarity you give, the better it performs.

Episode 210 - Talking to Sons About Masculinity and Healthy ManhoodPillar 1: Redefining MasculinityKey Talking Points:Reflection on what “being a man” meant in your generation — toughness, stoicism, protection — and how that definition is shifting.Explores the myths of “boys don't cry” and why they hold men back.Tell their sons: “You don't have to be perfect, just be real.”“So once we start redefining what masculinity looks like, the real work is helping our sons understand what's going on in their hearts — and how to talk about it.”Pillar 2: Building Emotional IntelligenceKey Talking Points:Normalizing emotional literacy — teaching sons to name and express feelings.Talk side-by-side (in the car, on a walk, playing catch).Ask open-ended questions: “What made you proud today?” or “Was there anything that bugged you this week?”Use your own emotions as examples: “I got frustrated today, and here's how I handled it.”Reinforce that emotional awareness builds real confidence and leadership.“Emotional intelligence is key, but how we treat others — especially in the world our sons are growing up in — is another huge piece of healthy manhood.”Pillar 3: Modeling Respect and EqualityKey Talking Points:Discussed how respect is the foundation of modern masculinity — in friendships, dating, family, and online interactions.Talked about modeling respect at home — how you treat your partner, your own parents, waitstaff, coworkers, etc.Shared how to handle “boys being boys” moments — correcting gently and teaching instead of shaming.“As dads, one of the biggest lessons we can pass down is that asking for help, showing emotion, and caring for others doesn't make us weak — it makes us human.”Pillar 4: Mental Health, Vulnerability, and CommunityKey Talking Points:Addressed mental health as an everyday part of manhood conversations.Talked about the power of community — encouraging sons (and dads) to find supportive male friendships.Highlighted Movember's initiatives and how listeners can get involved: grow a mustache, host a “Dad Chat,” or donate to men's mental health programs.A Dad Space Challenge:take the week's Dad Space Challenge:Have one honest 10-minute conversation with your son about what being a man means — and listen more than you talk.Bonus: write down three traits you want your son to carry into adulthood and share them with him.https://allprodad.com/podcast/Episode mentioned: Should Dads Be Worried About the Manosphere?https://pod.link/1718772295/episode/QnV6enNwcm91dC0xNzgwODA0MAhttps://movember.com/___https://dadspace.camusic provided by Blue Dot SessionsSong: The Big Ten https://app.sessions.blue/browse/track/258270

Logos, Ethos, Pathos: The Ancient Keys to Modern Persuasion In this episode of Conversations on Communication, I explore three timeless principles that sit at the heart of all persuasive communication: Logos, Ethos, and Pathos. They come from Aristotle, but their power is as relevant today in an MBA classroom, a boardroom, or a client meeting as it was in ancient Athens. When you learn to apply these three deliberately, your messages become sharper, more credible, and more emotionally resonant. Logos: The Logic of Your Argument Logos is the appeal to logic — the structure and reasoning that makes your audience think, "Yes, that makes sense." It's not only about data; it's about connection. Logos ensures that every statement you make clearly links to the conclusion you want your audience to draw. Facts, analysis, and evidence give your message weight, but they need to form a coherent chain of reasoning. In business, Logos often appears through charts, models, and financial analysis. But data alone doesn't persuade — logic does. The strongest communicators make the relationship between evidence and recommendation unmistakable. "We recommend expanding into Austin because customer adoption is 25% higher and logistics costs are 30% lower than comparable markets." That single "because" captures the essence of Logos. A final note: too much data can obscure your message. Your job isn't to share everything you know; it's to make the most important facts impossible to ignore. Ethos: The Credibility of the Speaker Ethos is the appeal to credibility and character. It answers the question, "Why should I trust you?" Your Ethos comes from more than your credentials. It's built through tone, preparation, and consistency. It's how you show that you've done your homework, that you understand the audience's world, and that your insights come from care as well as competence. You build Ethos when you say, "We didn't have complete customer data for the past two quarters, so we supplemented it with qualitative interviews to strengthen our understanding." That blend of honesty and diligence communicates credibility. Ethos is also shaped by how you sound and carry yourself. A steady pace, deliberate pauses, and confident posture project competence. Silence, used well, communicates confidence. People decide whether to trust you long before they evaluate your argument — so make sure your delivery earns that trust. Pathos: The Emotion of Connection Pathos is the emotional appeal — the part of communication that makes people care. Logic makes people think, but emotion makes them act. Pathos doesn't mean manipulation; it means connecting your message to human values, hopes, or fears. It's about showing why your recommendation matters beyond the numbers. "This expansion could help 10,000 small businesses reach new customers and create jobs in underserved communities." The data might stay the same, but the emotional frame transforms how people receive it. Stories, metaphors, and anecdotes are natural vehicles for Pathos. Humans are wired for narrative — it's how we remember and share meaning. A story can make your data come alive, and it helps your audience see themselves in your message. People may forget your exact words, but they'll remember how you made them feel. Bringing It All Together The most persuasive communicators blend all three: Logos gives your message clarity and structure. Ethos builds credibility and trust. Pathos creates connection and motivation. Together, they form the foundation of influence. You can think of persuasion as an equation: Influence = (Evidence + Economics + Emotion) ÷ Context Your evidence is Logos. Economics speaks to both logic and motivation — the bridge between head and heart. Emotion is Pathos. And Context — the audience, timing, and tone — determines whether your message lands. Lead with logic. Reinforce with credibility. Connect with emotion. Key Takeaway Before your next big meeting or presentation, ask yourself: Is my argument logical? (Logos) Am I credible and authentic? (Ethos) Have I made my audience care? (Pathos) If you can answer yes to all three, you're not just informing — you're persuading. And that's the difference between being heard and being remembered.

Gaza Ceasefire Interrupted by Violence; Hamas Reasserts Dominance. David Daoud and Bill Roggio discuss how the Gaza ceasefire was violated when Hamas killed Israeli soldiers, prompting Israeli retaliation to reinforce red lines without restarting the conflict entirely. Hamas is deliberately slowing the return of dead hostages to stabilize the ceasefire internationally. In Gaza, Hamas immediately began cracking down on rivals to reassert its dominance and prevent others from filling the power vacuum left by IDF withdrawals, signaling it remains the top power. 1902 CARACAS

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Rajan Suwal, one of Nepal's leading structural engineers, academics, and current President of the Structural Engineers' Association of Nepal (SEANep). As an Associate Professor at the Institute of Engineering (IOE), Pulchowk Campus, Dr. Suwal shares invaluable insights into building safety, fire damage repair, and retrofitting techniques essential for Nepal's urban future. He begins by analyzing the recent fire damage and explains how houses are inspected and repaired after such incidents. Dr. Suwal dives into the technical aspects of retrofitting—especially the process of repairing Singha Durbar and Parliament after the Gen-Z protest fires. The conversation covers construction grade selection (such as whether 25 grade is suitable for commercial or residential buildings) and how house grades and materials affect insurance claims. Furthermore, he breaks down the fire temperature data, the damage assessment process, and the lessons Nepal must learn from the damage to the Hilton Hotel during the protests. The discussion expands to earthquake-resistant design principles and building maintenance practices that can save both lives and infrastructure in the long run. If you're an engineer, architecture student, homeowner, or policymaker, this episode is packed with expert insights on fire safety, retrofitting, and structural resilience in Nepal.

In this episode of The Tech Leader's Playbook, Avetis Antaplyan lays out a wartime CEO playbook for thriving in downturns, drawing on the same strategies his team used to scale HireClout and help clients grow through multiple recessions. He argues that recessions do not kill companies, timid leadership does, and makes the case for buying market share when others freeze. Avetis explains why momentum dies faster than cash burns, how to reinforce your core and double down on your edge, and where “talent arbitrage” appears when markets are scared. He also breaks down weaponized efficiency, using AI and automation to cut friction instead of people, and how leaders can keep teams aligned by leading with certainty, transparency, and small weekly wins. Along the way, Avetis shares candid stories from COVID, investing in AI startups and real estate, and the tough calls required of a wartime CEO. The result is a concise, practical blueprint for founders and operators who want to play to win rather than “not lose.”TakeawaysRecessions concentrate opportunity in the hands of bold leadersMomentum dies faster than cash burns, so “wait and see” erodes advantageCut distractions, not drivers; double down on your core edgeDownturns are prime time for talent arbitrage and loyalty buildingYou cannot cut your way to greatness; savings alone will not scale a companyUse AI and automation to remove friction so people can drive revenueTurn downtime into build time by rebuilding systems to be 10x-readyKeep outbound and thought leadership consistent while others go quietLead with certainty; your team mirrors your energy and confidenceCreate small weekly wins to sustain morale and momentumPair clarity with optimism; either one alone leads to noise or paralysisThe leaders who act decisively now will own the rebound laterChapters00:00 Why timid leaders lose in recessions02:22 The big lie of “conserve and wait”04:30 You cannot cut your way to greatness06:45 Recessions as the cheapest time to buy market share08:23 Talent arbitrage and loyalty during downturns10:32 Reinforce your core and double down on your edge12:50 Weaponized efficiency: cut friction, not talent15:16 Turn downtime into build time and rebuild systems17:22 Keep marketing; brand compounding when others go silent19:25 Lead with certainty and reassure through transparency21:40 Clarity plus optimism and the cost of overanalysis23:40 No fluff, make it happen: own the reboundResources and Links:https://www.hireclout.comhttps://www.podcast.hireclout.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/hirefasthireright

Do your emotions control you—or are you ready to control them?In Part 3 of Clearing Limiting Beliefs & Reprogramming the Subconscious Mind, Dr. David Snyder dives deeper into the process of emotional release and subconscious reprogramming. This episode explores how unresolved emotions shape behavior, limit growth, and keep you trapped in repetitive cycles—often without your awareness.Dr. Snyder walks you through practical methods for identifying, feeling, and releasing emotional blocks stored in the body. He emphasizes that real healing doesn't come from avoiding pain, but from fully acknowledging and transforming it.If you've ever felt like you're doing the inner work but nothing seems to change, this episode will help you understand why—and how to finally break through the mental and emotional barriers holding you back.Quotes:"Dissociation never leads to resolution. It leads to stagnation.""When you finally get the emotion clear and you've done an actual intervention that's leading to resolution, you will have a spontaneous epiphany about that experience." "When you see the emotions come up, let them come up and out. Don't try to lock them down. Don't try to repress them. Don't try to manage them. Let them come out. That's what makes you sick."Actionable Takeaways:Acknowledge emotional resistance. Instead of suppressing discomfort, observe it without judgment. Resistance often signals the area most in need of healing.Use the “point to where you feel it” technique. Physically locating sensations helps bring subconscious emotions into conscious awareness.Let emotions complete their cycle. Allow yourself to feel the full emotion—without suppressing it—so the energy can naturally release.Reframe emotional meaning. Ask, “What is this emotion trying to teach me?” to turn pain into insight.Anchor new emotional patterns. Reinforce positive states by visualizing and embodying them daily, training your subconscious to default toward peace and confidence.Episode Timeline:00:00:26 – Addressing Overwhelming Emotions During Reframing00:00:45 – The Importance of Venting Emotions00:01:16 – How Emotional Processing Works: Neurogenic Tremoring Explained00:04:45 – The “Magic Frame” Technique and Its Significance00:08:49 – Numbness as a Feeling and Regression Techniques00:10:40 – Advanced Methods: Holonomic Regression and Self-Resolution00:12:46 – Residual Feelings and The Transformational Triad (Magic Frame, Spinning, Color Breathing)00:14:39 – Interpreting Emotional Sensations Through Color and Vibration00:17:45 – Q&A: Can We Consciously Control the Subconscious?00:20:20 – Practical Exercises: State Control & The Universal Persuasion Protocol00:24:22 – Using Indifference for State Control and Its Limitations00:27:44 – The Role and Limitation of Progressive Desensitization00:29:21 – Dealing With Traumatic Releasing When It Feels Unsafe00:31:00 – Ethical Considerations for Interventions Without Follow-Up00:34:20 – Explaining Spiritual Concepts in a Secular or Atheist Context00:37:34 – Bucket Listing: Thematic Listing and Rating of Fears00:43:06 – Systematic Approach to Emotional Clearing and Self-Improvement00:46:49 – Building Skills & Confidence with Reframing and the Transformational Triad00:47:08 – Participant Feedback & Announcement of Upcoming Relationship Workshop00:49:07 – Why Focus Naturally Goes to the Most Traumatic Experiences & Overcoming Them00:53:54 – Discussion on Spiritual Guidance, Higher Power, and Ethics00:57:01 – Closing Remarks and Contact InformationLinks:To learn more about Dr. David Snyder and everything about NLP, visit:Website: https://www.nlppower.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DavidSnyderNLPInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/davidsnydernlp
Tired of telling people what to do, only for your words to fall on deaf ears? Do you feel like you're just "barking orders" without seeing any real, lasting behavioral change in your team or family? In this episode, I'll share my 3-step framework for "silent influence," a method grounded in Albert Bandura's Social Learning Theory, to help you inspire others with integrity. You'll learn why your actions are far more potent than your words and how to embody the change you wish to see, so you can become a truly effective and trusted leader. What you'll learn in this episode: The power of modeling behavior vs. giving verbal commands (and why children and teams do what you do, not what you say). The three simple steps for silent influence: Acknowledge, Choose Your Vehicle, and Reinforce. How to use storytelling as a potent "vehicle for impact" to give others permission to change. The science behind why a genuine compliment is as powerful as a financial reward for reinforcing behavior. This video is perfect for leaders, managers, entrepreneurs, and parents who want to create genuine, long-lasting behavioral change in their teams and families. Your next move:

https://jo.my/eaywef Incident Reporting & Root Cause Analysis: Overcoming the Fear of Speaking Up One of the strongest signs of a healthy safety culture is when team members feel confident enough to speak up and express their concerns. Not just about significant hazards—but also the small things. Loose cords. Leaky hoses. Unsafe stacking. If people remain quiet, minor issues can quickly escalate into substantial risks. But here's the thing—fear often keeps people silent. Fear of blame. Fear of looking weak. Fear of retaliation. That's a problem because silence and safety don't mix. Creating a facility where people feel safe to speak up is key to preventing injuries and improving operations. Here are a few ways to help build that kind of environment: Start by removing the fear of blame. Mistakes happen. Addressing what happened is more important than focusing on who did it. Please make it clear that the goal is learning and preventing, not punishment. Keep communication open—literally. An open-door policy doesn't mean much unless it's real. Leaders should be visible. In the aisles. On the floor. Make time to check in, ask questions, and listen. Safety conversations shouldn't just happen after an incident. Back up your words with action. If someone raises a concern and it goes unaddressed, they will likely refrain from bringing up the next one. Show people that their voice matters by acting on what they report—or at least explaining why something can't be done immediately. Offer anonymous options for reporting. Not everyone's comfortable talking face-to-face. That's okay. Having an anonymous box, hotline, or digital form gives everyone a voice, regardless of their comfort level. Make sure those reports don't collect dust. Reframe what speaking up means. Some folks still think raising concerns makes them look like complainers. Flip that thinking. Reinforce that calling out a hazard or unsafe practice shows strength, awareness, and leadership. As always, these are suggested tips for you. Please ensure that you follow the specific facility's rules and regulations. A facility is only as strong as the people inside it. And people are more likely to stay safe when they know their voice matters. When speaking up is encouraged, listened to, and acted on, safety becomes something everyone owns—not just the folks wearing the vests or holding the clipboards. Build trust. Support your team. And remember—silence doesn't prevent accidents. Speaking up does. Thank you for joining us for another episode of Warehouse Safety Tips. Until we meet next time – have a great week, and STAY SAFE! #Safety #SafetyCulture #SpeakUpForSafety #IncidentReporting #RootCauseAnalysis #NoBlameCulture #StaySafeAtWork

AI can do a lot, but it's ineffective when it comes to building relationships with prospects. Even though creating connections is important, most sellers tend to struggle with this. I invited my guest, Ravi Rajani, a sales coach and author of Relationship Currency, to join me in this episode to discuss his newest book. He shares what inspired him to write this book and why sellers need to focus more on building relationships to create strong pipelines.The Origins of "Relationship Currency"· To start, Ravi discusses what inspired him to write his first book. He shares a funny story about talking to his mentor about the idea of writing a book while having a second baby on the way. · Looking back on his career and life, he noticed how much his relationships influenced his success. He learned that by building trust and communication skills, other sellers can achieve the same success.The Central Role of Trust· Would you be friends with your bestie if you didn't trust them? Your prospects feel the same way when it comes to doing business with you. · Trust is the glue that holds relationships together. In his book, Ravi talks about the "Three Cs" of trust:o Connection (the emotional bond)o Character (your invisible values)o Competence (showing expertise without being overbearing)· You need all three to establish lasting trust, whether with clients, colleagues, or partners.The Art of Listening and Empathetic Questions· Ravi explains how surface-level questions yield surface-level relationships, but conscious questions develops deep relationships. · A “conscious question” is rooted in positive intent and service. For example, instead of “How are you?” ask something you know the other person is emotionally invested in.Five Habits to Build Relationship Currency· Here are the five habits that help build the Three Cs:o Transform Your Internal Story: The relationship you have with yourself sets the tone for all others.o Ask Conscious Questions: Rooted in service and positive intent; paired with deep listening.o Unearth Your Charisma: True charisma makes others feel significant.o Tell Stories That Inspire Change: Especially social proof stories—show, don't tell.o Become the Trusted Guide: Help others achieve their goals without self-interest, bringing all habits together.Ravi's Advice for Leaders: Model the Change· If you want your team to be more passionate or authentic, you need to model that energy and intention yourself.· Reinforce these behaviors by acknowledging team members who practice them.· Genuine compliments go a long way—they activate the same brain areas as financial rewards!“I believe that the only currency that has mattered is relationships. And the only currency that will matter moving forward is relationships, especially in a world increasingly being shaped by AI.” - Ravi Rajani.ResourcesRavi RajaniBook | Speaker, Coach & Consultant | Ravi RajaniRavi Rajani's mission is to help B2B tech sales teams ditch feature dumping for storytelling so they can get their prospect's attention, become trusted advisors and win more relationships.Sponsorship Offers1.

What to listen for:Our hosts, Robin Greubel, Stacy Barnett, and Crystal Wing, dive deep into a counterintuitive training philosophy sparked by their recent interview with Petra Ford: sometimes accepting imperfection creates better performance in complex behavior chains.The conversation began with Petra's story about reinforcing her dog even when she knew it wasn't sitting perfectly square. When working on complex detection behaviors, trying to perfect every element simultaneously can destroy the bigger picture. As Robin notes with her recall-refine work over 600 feet of varied terrain, if she withheld reinforcement because her dog's elbows weren't perfectly down, she'd be punishing extraordinary effort over a minor detail.Crystal's breakthrough came through Denise Fenzi's exercise that forced her to reward every single repetition—even mistakes. When her dog Checkmate downed instead of sitting, Crystal still had to reward it. "I thought it would ruin my training," she admits, "but instead it ruined my frustration." The exercise revealed that her dogs were trying harder than she'd realized. They weren't being disobedient; they were navigating the learning process.The Dames of Detection emphasize balance throughout. Yes, reward imperfect efforts when building complex chains or working through challenging problems. But don't reside there permanently—sloppy chains help no one. The key is reading patterns: one mistake is information, three times becomes a training issue to address.Every attempt provides valuable information. Whether working detection, obedience, or protection sports, dogs need to feel free to try without fear of shutdown. When handlers create that emotional safety through strategic reinforcement—even of imperfect attempts—dogs develop the grit and resilience needed for complex work.Key Topics:Petra Ford's Philosophy on Complex Behavior Chains (00:59)Recall-Refine Over Distance: When Good Enough is Great (02:52)Teaching Scent Theory vs. Perfect Alerts (05:00)Crystal's Breakthrough: Rewarding Every Repetition (12:33)Building Duration Behaviors (22:41)Reading Patterns vs. One-Off Mistakes (36:20)Final Takeaways on Clarity and Balance (41:51) Resources:K9 Detection Collaborative Episode 142: Talking Training with Petra Ford Pt 1K9 Detection Collaborative Episode 143: Talking Training with Petra Ford Pt 2We want to hear from you:Check out the K9 Detection Collaborative FB page and comment on the episode post!K9Sensus Detection Dog Trainer AcademyK9Sensus Foundation can be found on Facebook and Instagram.

Some Christians are skeptical about empathy, mistakenly assuming that it coddles others and reinforces sinful behavior. Yet genuine empathy (even when we sin) helps us understand our struggles and strengthens us to grow in Christlikeness. Thankfully, loving and healthy empathy is modeled all over the Bible and not only comforts us but leads us toward truth and responsibility.Join us for this episode of Soul Talks as Bill and Kristi address concerns you might hear about empathy in some Christian circles. You'll discover fresh insights from the empathy scriptures they teach in their new book, Deeply Loved, and learn the importance of holding others in God's empathy while the Spirit draws them toward transformation.Resources for this Episode:Deeply Loved: Receiving and Reflecting God's Great Empathy for YouAttend a Soul Shepherding RetreatDonate to Support Soul Shepherding and Soul Talks

Sadly I cannot respond directly to your text, so please Email me!Today we're diving into one of the most overlooked—but absolutely crucial—parts of any FLR dynamic: financial control. Who holds the money? Who decides how it gets spent? And how do we build structure around money without turning it into a battlefield?Spoiler alert: I hold the debit card. And it's not just about power—it's about respect, ritual, and responsibility.What I Talk About in This Episode:Why dominance isn't just in the play—it's in the practiceReal-life examples from our FLR money ritualsHow communication builds trust around financesWhat to do when your sub tops from the bottom (and how to recover)Weekly money check-ins as emotional regulation toolsChore-based point systems that build structure without infantilizingHow I reclaimed my power after years of being the “default manager”The deep emotional empowerment that comes from owning the finances“You don't have to be a CPA to run an FLR household. You just need trust, clarity, and the confidence to say, ‘This is what's best for us—and I'm deciding it.'”“We forget that holding the money is a kink for some of us. It's symbolic. It's ritual. And it's real fucking power.”Five Tips for Starting a Financial Control Dynamic:Start with a conversation, not a command. Ask, but be firm.Define clear categories. Needs, wants, fun, rituals.Set financial rituals. Weekly check-ins, allowance transfers, updates.Use symbolic tools. Apps, charts, envelopes, or even a ritual wallet.Reinforce with structure.

You've heard it before: “Don't comfort a scared dog, you'll just reinforce the fear.” But… is that true? In this episode of Enrichment for the Real World, Allie and Emily break down the science behind fear, behavior, and reinforcement and why that common advice just doesn't hold up.They'll explore how fear functions differently than you may think, why your emotional state also matters, and how to tell if your pet actually wants your comfort. Plus, you'll learn how to comfort your dog in a way that supports their wellbeing and builds resilience. Whether you're navigating thunderstorms, vet visits, or everyday stressors, this episode is packed with actionable advice for the pet parent who wants to help their pet. TLDL (too long, didn't listen): 1️⃣ Fear is not a behavior and can't be reinforced like oneFear is a physiological and emotional response, not a behavior that can be increased with rewards. However, behaviors associated with fear can be reinforced, which is where people often get confused.2️⃣ Your emotional state matters just as much as your pet's“Your stress travels down the leash” isn't just a cute saying. If you're anxious, your pet likely will be too. Comforting your dog starts with regulating your own nervous system first.3️⃣ Learn when and how to comfort your petSome pets want snuggles, others want space. Comforting isn't a one-size-fits-all approach. Learn how to listen to your learner and become the safe space they need when they are ready for it.For the full episode show notes, including additional resources, join us here.Join our upcoming free live webinar for force-free behavior professionals!3 Strategies to Uplevel Your Consulting Skills to Solve Behavior Challenges: Happier pets, enthusiastic clients, and a more rewarding career using the Pet Harmony Enrichment Framework covers our #1 tip to keep clients happy, working with you, and ultimately referring to you, and so much more.

Today's guest is Jay DeMayo, Jay is the longtime strength coach for men's basketball at the University of Richmond and the founder of CVASPS—the Central Virginia Sport Performance Seminar. He's known for connecting top minds in sport science and coaching, and for his practical, athlete-first approach to physical preparation. Where the emphasis of an athletic performance program can easily be centered from a narrow perspective, Jay considers a wide variety of inputs, from an athlete's underlying structure and positional abilities to their perception of workout adjustments, to specialized exercises and technical training elements. In this episode, Jay digs into the principles he uses to prepare athletes for the demands of the game. From a foundational perspective, he discusses building work capacity and progressing split squats. On the power side, he shares his take on Olympic lifts and French Contrast training, while also addressing the role of autonomy and individualization in his approach. Throughout the show, Jay unpacks practical tools and coaching strategies that drive long-term athletic development. Today's episode is brought to you by Hammer Strength.

Jay reflects on how older training styles—like Westside—can still have value when creatively repurposed. It's not about mimicking those programs but about borrowing what drives athlete engagement and technical mastery today. What to try: Use methods like box squats to teach depth and posture before progressing to more dynamic movements. Connect the dots for athletes: show how learning positions now sets them up for more “fun” or explosive lifts later. Reinforce that mastering basic postures unlocks more advanced training, not just better numbers. Unveiling Louis Simmons' Strength Training Insights [11:01] Jay highlights lessons from studying Louie Simmons—not for copying his powerlifting templates, but to appreciate mastery and intention. Athletes need to understand why they're training a certain way, not just how. What to try: Share stories or videos of experts from outside your sport to spark discussions about mastery and approach. Ask athletes to reflect on what "winning" a lift means to them—focus, technique, or load? Create reflective moments for athletes to assess their own intent during sessions. Enhancing Basketball Players' Performance Through Tailored Training [14:24] Forget rigid metrics for the sake of numbers. Jay focuses on using basic force plate data (jump height + contraction time) to guide individual exercise choices—not to chase numbers, but to fit each athlete's needs. What to try: Test vertical jump and contraction time; use results to bucket athletes into fast/slow jumpers. Prescribe exercises accordingly:
A video of Justin... that Justin never made. This was the shocking moment that shook the families on Parental Guidance—a deepfake designed to highlight how real, how convincing, and how dangerous AI can be for our kids. In today’s recap, we dive into the confronting realities of deepfakes, online safety, and skyrocketing screen time. From fake videos to 65-hour screen weeks, how do we protect our kids in this hyperconnected world? KEY POINTS: Deepfakes are real, fast, and easy. It took producers just 20 minutes to create a convincing fake video of Justin. This raises serious concerns about privacy, consent, and exploitation—especially for teens. The gendered impact is severe. 98% of deepfake porn targets women and girls, with devastating emotional and psychological consequences. The 'be careful what you post' advice is outdated. Even innocent images like yearbook photos can be misused. The real focus needs to be on teaching empathy, respect, and legal consequences. Screen time shock. One family clocked 21 devices for 6 people. A parent averaged 65 hours a week—over 9 hours a day—and her son hit 16 hours in a single day. The real cost of screen time. Excessive screens impact brain development, sleep, social skills, physical health, and relationships. Digital connections aren't enough. Kids need real-life, face-to-face interaction for emotional and neurological growth—nine times more brain activation happens in person than on Zoom. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE: "When we spend time in front of a screen—especially when it's excessive—we do not grow our brain. In fact, the research suggests there’s less grey matter. That is a massive problem." – Dr Justin Coulson RESOURCES MENTIONED: The Parenting Revolution by Dr Justin Coulson TV Show: Parental Guidance Season 3 – available on 9Now Website: happyfamilies.com.au ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS: Talk about it. Have open, honest conversations with your kids about AI, deepfakes, and consent. Teach empathy. Reinforce that using someone's image without consent is a violation of their humanity—and often a crime. Audit your screens. Count your family’s devices and track your own usage. Awareness is step one. Prioritise real-world connection. Schedule offline time daily. Prioritise nature, play, face-to-face conversations, and physical activity. Set boundaries. Create clear family rules about screen time, nighttime device use, and online safety. Model the behaviour. Kids notice if we say one thing but do another. Manage your own screen habits. Stay informed. Keep up with emerging tech risks and solutions. Read, listen, learn, and adjust. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
