Community microgrids and virtual power plants are two of the most misunderstood concepts in clean energy, and the gap between them is where billions of dollars in grid value are being left on the table. Craig Lewis, Founder and CEO of the Clean Coalition, returns to The Clean Power Hour to break down how community-scale microgrids and VPPs actually work, where the money is, and why the current policy window in California matters to every energy professional in the country.California's Microgrid Incentive Program funds up to $18 million per community microgrid project, covering 100% of upfront costs for front-of-meter solar and storage, grid upgrades, and interconnection. Craig explains the Clean Coalition's methodology for sizing solar and storage, calculating the minimum state of charge required for resilience, and building a value stack through wholesale markets, bilateral agreements with load-serving entities, and PURPA qualified facility status.Here is what you will learn in this conversation about community microgrids and virtual power plants:You will learn the difference between reliability and resilience, and why designing for resilience automatically gives you reliability, but not the other way around.Find out how California's Microgrid Incentive Program works, what the $18 million funding breakdown covers, and why the program is competitive enough that most applicants need deep grid analysis expertise to win.Understand the three ways to build a value stack for front-of-meter solar and storage assets: wholesale markets through CAISO, bilateral agreements with load-serving entities, and PURPA qualified facility status.You will hear why transmission costs, not energy prices, are the fastest-growing component of electricity bills in California, and how distributed energy resources close to load are the only structural fix.Learn how the Clean Coalition's VOR123 methodology tiers loads and facilities into critical, priority, and discretionary categories, and why tier-one facilities like hospitals and fire stations should be funded through public dollars.California's Microgrid Incentive Program is active and awarding projects now, with roughly 30 community microgrids expected to be funded as proof-of-concept demonstrations. At the same time, transmission costs continue rising with no policy mechanism anywhere in the US that compensates for provisioning energy resilience. For solar and storage professionals and clean energy investors, the window to build expertise in community microgrid development and front-of-meter value stacks is open today.Connect with Craig Lewis LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/craig-lewis-81b0521/Website: https://clean-coalition.org/ Support the showConnect with Tim Clean Power Hour Clean Power Hour on YouTubeTim on TwitterTim on LinkedIn Email tim@cleanpowerhour.com Review Clean Power Hour on Apple PodcastsThe Clean Power Hour is produced by the Clean Power Consulting Group and created by Tim Montague.

What do you do when the assessment sheet says "Did Not Attain"? In this episode of First Chair, host George Thomas talks with PSIA-AASI National Team member Lyndsey Stevens about her journey through the assessment process. Lyndsey opens up about failing her trainer assessment three times before finally succeeding on her fourth attempt. She explains how those setbacks weren't just hurdles, but essential learning moments that shaped her into the high-level educator she is today. Lyndsey dives into the difference between "passively declining" and "actively seeking" feedback, and why moving from the question of "Why did I fail?" to "What do I do to succeed?" is a total game changer. We discuss the importance of "Follow-up Culture," how to be a better receiver of feedback, and why examiners often enjoy being mentors more than they enjoy being proctors. Whether you are preparing for your Level I or eyeing a spot on the National Team, this conversation offers a roadmap for turning a "check-box" failure into a long-term professional victory. In this episode, we discuss: The emotional weight of seeing "Did Not Attain" on an assessment sheet. Reframing the past: Moving your focus from "Why" to "What." How to bridge the gap between being "at the standard" and proving it during an exam. The "Follow-up Culture": Prompting trainers with specific goals to get better data. Why being a good receiver of feedback is a skill that must be practiced. Read Lyndsey's full article in the Winter 2026 issue of 32 Degrees magazine.

Alan Wardsworth's story doesn't start on a pristine track facility—it starts in chaos.A childhood that spanned continents. A high school that literally burned to the ground. A kid who wasn't focused in the classroom… until sport gave him a reason to be.And then, almost by accident, he finds track and field.What follows is a journey shaped by curiosity, resilience, and a willingness to figure things out—from breaking school records in his first week, to learning events through instinct, to eventually becoming the kind of coach who impacts lives far beyond marks and medals.This one is a reminder of what makes this sport so powerful:➡️ It meets you where you are➡️ It gives you a reason to grow➡️ And if you let it… it can change everything
Send me a messageWhat if your biggest supply chain risk isn't disruption, but the time it takes to decide what to do next?In this episode of the Resilient Supply Chain Podcast, I'm joined by Robbert de Looff, Industry Commercial Lead for Chemicals at OMP, to explore why supply chain resilience now depends on more than better forecasting. In a world of energy price spikes, shipping disruption, raw material constraints, sustainability pressures, and geopolitical shocks, visibility is useful, but only if it leads to better, faster decisions.Robbert and I break down why traditional planning cycles can leave companies reacting weeks too late, and why decision-centric planning is becoming so important for supply chain leaders. You'll hear how organisations can move from rigid S&OP rhythms to scenario-based planning, where teams know what data they need, who owns the decision, and when action is genuinely required.You might be surprised to learn that “real-time planning” doesn't mean constantly changing the plan. Sometimes the best real-time decision is not to act. We also explore where AI can help, from surfacing relevant risks to running what-if scenarios, and where humans still need to stay firmly in control: relationships, judgement, and trust.Kismet: one of the sharpest examples is the Rhine running low. Not a cyberattack. Not a system failure. Just water levels quietly deciding whether chemical supply chains can keep moving. Resilience, it turns out, can still be humbled by a river.
Most people don't fear change itself — they fear the moment before they know if they're going to be okay. And according to Dr. Jimmie Williamson, that gap between uncertainty and clarity is where organizations either hold their people together or quietly lose them. In this episode of Your Health University, Jamie sits down with Dr. Jimmie Williamson, Chief Behavioral Health Officer at Your Health, in the middle of a real organizational merger — making this conversation as timely and personal as it gets. Dr. Williamson draws on decades of clinical experience, behavioral health expertise, and his own career pivots (including leaving a 28-year career to step into healthcare) to walk us through what change actually does to the human brain and body — and what it takes to move through it well. Key topics include: Why even positive change triggers a physiological threat response — and what science says is actually happening in your brain The five stages of change people move through (shock, resistance, exploration, and beyond) and why getting stuck isn't a character flaw Dr. David Rock's SCARF model — the five psychological domains (Status, Certainty, Autonomy, Relatedness, Fairness) that determine whether people feel safe or threatened during transitions What leaders most commonly get wrong when communicating change — and the one mistake that always creates a narrative vacuum Why insecurity in leadership is more dangerous than the change itself The one self-care practice you can start today if you're feeling the weight of uncertainty Change is positive. It is good. And it is inevitable. This episode will help you believe that — and act like it. www.YourHealth.Org
World War II reached far beyond the beaches of Normandy and the islands of the Pacific. It also came to Alaska, where Indigenous communities found themselves on the front lines of invasion, military occupation, and forced relocation.In this episode of Reckoning with Jason Herbert, historian Holly Miowak Guise discusses her groundbreaking book Alaska Native Resilience: Voices from World War II. Drawing on more than 90 oral history interviews with Alaska Native elders, Guise reveals how Alaska Native communities experienced the Aleutian Campaign, wartime relocation camps, segregation, military service, and the ongoing realities of colonialism in America's far north.Together, we explore the Japanese invasion of the Aleutian Islands, the forced evacuation of Indigenous communities, Alaska Native military service, the power of oral history, and the ways Native peoples resisted, adapted, and rebuilt their communities in the aftermath of war.This conversation challenges familiar narratives of the "Good War" and offers a powerful reminder that some of the most important stories of World War II remain largely unknown.
In this episode, Michael speaks with Thomas Falk, a researcher at the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), part of the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR). Thomas works at the intersection of research and development, and for many years he has been designing and testing what he calls experiential learning games: structured, face-to-face exercises that help communities understand and address their shared resource challenges. Thomas employs games in the service of a key principle: that the best way to help communities manage their shared resources isn't to tell them what to do, but to create a space where they can figure it out for themselves. And that space, it turns out, can look a lot like a game. In this conversation, Thomas discuss an important principle shared by many commons scholars: that communities are often better at identifying the right institutions for their own contexts than outside researchers are. The games he designs don't hand communities a solution. Instead, they help participants see the structure of their own collective problems clearly, often for the first time, and then work out the rules they want to live by together. Michael and Thomas discuss how such games are run, the role of gender in collective decision-making, what it actually looks like to facilitate one of these sessions in a village in rural India, and what the evidence actually shows about whether any of this changes behavior in the real world. Thomas would like to acknowledge the financial support for his work from the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), the CGIAR Policy Innovations Science Program, the CGIAR Gender Equality and Inclusion Accelerator, and the Co-Impact Philanthropic Funds.

We want to hear from you! Please, send us a text comment or suggestion. In this episode of Home Sweet Home, we explore a surprising truth about healthy aging: helping other people may be one of the most powerful things you can do for your own brain. Drawing from long-term research following more than 30,000 adults over nearly two decades, we unpack how consistent acts of helping—whether formal volunteering or everyday support for neighbors, friends, and family—were linked to slower cognitive decline, stronger purpose, and better overall well-being. This conversation highlights why the benefits are not just emotional or social, but deeply practical for memory, resilience, and long-term brain health.We also talk about what makes helping so effective, why informal acts can matter just as much as organized service, and how to build this habit into daily life in ways that are sustainable rather than overwhelming. At its core, this episode is an invitation to see helping others differently—not just as something generous, but as something restorative and protective for your own life too. If you are looking for a meaningful habit that strengthens both community and personal well-being, this episode offers a hopeful and practical perspective.

Debbie explains that pressure reveals where our trust systems "leak," and encourages educators to view burnout and anxiety as data points for needed shifts in rhythms, relationships, and honest conversations. She challenges listeners to be brave, speak up, and first be honest with God about fear and lack of trust, noting that internal stress can impact health.

How untreated strep throat sent Ron into a coma the first time — in 2015What vasopressors are, why they saved his life, and why they cost What do you do when the love of your life is fighting for his life — and four kids are at home counting on you to hold everything together?Victoria Rosas is a former Dallas attorney, mom of four in a beautifully blended family, and one of the most quietly extraordinary women we've ever sat across from at the Moms Club.In 2022, her husband Ron — a former professional tennis player who competed for Notre Dame, played the pro tour, and coached their kids on the court — woke up feeling off. Within 24 hours, he was intubated. Within days, the medication saving his life was slowly taking something else: blood flow to all four of his limbs.Victoria was told multiple times he wasn't going to survive.He did. But what came next — nine surgeries, 70 hours in the operating room, nine weeks in Ohio, and coming home to a kindergartner and three kids on the verge of launching — is a story about what strength actually looks like when it has no other choice.

This is message 53 in Gospel Record of John John 18:1-12 Jesus was not a helpless victim overcome by men, but the sovereign Son of God who willingly gave Himself to fulfill the Father's plan of redemption. Even in the darkness of betrayal and arrest, His divine authority, power, and compassion were unmistakable as He protected His disciples, healed His enemy, and faced the cross with complete obedience. This message reveals that Christ remained fully in control in every moment, proving that the Savior who was bound by men was still the great I AM.

There's a lot to be said for the excitement we feel when we first set a goal for ourselves. The sense of exhilaration can give us the momentum we need to get started. But when the exhilaration wears off – and it usually does – we're faced with a choice. Will we revert to old habits or develop new ones? These moments are what Jonathan Rhodes calls choice points, and the decisions we make can really add up. Ultimately, how we manage ourselves in these moments can be the difference between the life we have and the life we want. That's why I wanted to interview Jonathan Rhodes, author of the book, The Choice Point: The Scientifically Proven Method to Push Past Mental Walls and Achieve Your Goals. His Functional Imagery Training provides a concrete roadmap to help us stay the course.

What if the answer isn't to change everything… but to change just a few things that change everything?In this episode of Message in the Middle, Marianne sits down with Dr. Michele Kehrer, business growth coach, entrepreneur, and four-time cancer survivor, to explore what it really means to find clarity in the middle of chaos.After building and selling a successful physical therapy practice in downtown Chicago, Michele now helps overwhelmed entrepreneurs and midlife women step out of constant decision-making and into focused, sustainable growth. But her work is deeply shaped by her personal journey through illness, loss, and reinvention.This conversation goes beyond business strategy. It is about identity, resilience, and learning how to move forward when life no longer looks the way you expected.Together, Marianne and Michele explore: The difference between being busy and being truly stuck Why most women are focusing on the wrong things How to find clarity in the middle of competing priorities The emotional side of letting go, even when it is the right choice What cancer taught Michele about time, energy, and what actually matters How small mindset shifts can create meaningful, lasting change This episode will resonate with any woman navigating a season of change, whether in her health, career, relationships, or sense of self.Because sometimes the shift that saves your life is the same one that helps you rebuild it.Connect with Michele:https://www.instagram.com/balancemichele/https://www.facebook.com/michele.kehrerhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/michelekehrer/https://michelekehrer.com/ Connect with Marianne:Website: Message In The Middle with MarianneMessage In the Middle Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/422430469323847/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MessageInTheMiddle/playlistsLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marianne-demello-smith-678b9966Email: Contact | Message In The Middle with MarianneSubscribe to Message In the Middle:Apple PodcastsSpotifyYouTubeLeave Us a Review: If you enjoyed today's episode, please leave a review and share your favorite takeaway.

Kevin's connection to this work is deeply personal—his family's own tragedy inspired his mother, Dorrie Carolan, to found Connecticut Parent Connection to support families navigating addiction, grief, isolation, and life's most difficult challenges. What began from heartbreak became a mission rooted in hope, education, prevention, and meaningful support for children, adults, and families across Connecticut. Today, Kevin continues that legacy by helping communities better understand addiction, mental health, recovery, and the essential role human connection plays in healing. Together, Scarlett and Kevin explore resilience, prevention, the challenges facing young people today, and how compassion, understanding, and community can help us create healthier, more connected lives.

Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: Seaside Bonds: A Spring of Love and Resilience Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2026-05-30-22-34-02-hu Story Transcript:Hu: A mediterrán tavasz aranyszínű fényben fürdette a partot.En: The Mediterranean spring bathed the shore in golden light.Hu: A tenger türkizkék hullámai lágyan csapkodtak a görög part mentén, miközben Bálint és Júlia a sziklák mentén sétáltak.En: The turquoise blue waves of the sea gently lapped along the Greek coast as Bálint and Júlia walked along the rocks.Hu: Bálint csendesen figyelte Júliát, aki mosollyal az arcán szelte a köves utat.En: Bálint quietly observed Júlia, who navigated the rocky path with a smile on her face.Hu: Tele volt élettel, és Bálint ezt az oldalát szerette leginkább.En: She was full of life, and this was the side of her that Bálint loved the most.Hu: De azon a napon valami más is ott volt a levegőben.En: But that day, something else hovered in the air.Hu: Júlia nevetése elhalkult, és hirtelen megrogyott.En: Júlia's laughter faded away, and suddenly she staggered.Hu: Bálint rémülten lépett mellé, hogy elkapja.En: Bálint stepped beside her in horror to catch her.Hu: Júlia eszméletét vesztette.En: Júlia had lost consciousness.Hu: A szél hűvösen fújt a tenger felől, miközben Bálint szerelmével karjaiban rohant a közeli kis klinika felé.En: The wind blew cool from the sea as Bálint ran with his love in his arms toward the nearby small clinic.Hu: A klinika kicsi és zsúfolt volt.En: The clinic was small and crowded.Hu: Bálint aggodalma csak nőtt, ahogy az orvosok próbálták ellátni Júliát.En: Bálint's worry only grew as the doctors tried to attend to Júlia.Hu: A férfi nem hagyta el szerelme oldalát, aggódva figyelve a félprofesszionális ellátást.En: He didn't leave her side, anxiously observing the semi-professional care.Hu: Az orvos végül megnyugtatta, hamarosan felébred.En: The doctor finally reassured him that she would wake up soon.Hu: Mégis, Bálint tudta, hogy valami mélyebb van a háttérben, és talán csak egy alapos vizsgálat segíthet.En: Still, Bálint knew there was something deeper in the background, and perhaps only a thorough examination could help.Hu: Júlia, ahogy felébredt, gyengének és fáradtnak érezte magát.En: As Júlia awoke, she felt weak and tired.Hu: Mégis próbálta meggyőzni Bálintot arról, hogy minden rendben van, és folytathatják a nyaralást.En: Still, she tried to convince Bálint that everything was fine and that they could continue their holiday.Hu: Bálint szíve azonban azt súgta, hogy nem hagyhatja annyiban.En: However, Bálint's heart insisted that he couldn't just leave it at that.Hu: Egyre csak erősödött az érzése, hogy meg kell mondania neki, amit mindig is el akart.En: His feeling that he needed to say something he had always wanted to became stronger.Hu: "Júlia, kérlek, hallgass meg!En: "Júlia, please, listen to me!"Hu: " - mondta.En: he said.Hu: "Túl fontos vagy nekem.En: "You are too important to me.Hu: Nem kockáztathatjuk, hogy valami baj történjen veled.En: We can't risk something happening to you."Hu: "Júlia szemei megteltek könnyel, miközben Bálint szavai elérték a szívét.En: Júlia's eyes filled with tears as Bálint's words reached her heart.Hu: Ő is mesélt a félelmeiről: hogy nem akar Bálint terhére lenni.En: She also shared her fears: that she didn't want to be a burden to Bálint.Hu: A tengeri szél megnyugtatóan simogatta őket, miközben a szavai végül megtalálták a helyüket.En: The sea breeze soothingly caressed them while the words eventually found their place.Hu: A döntés megszületett.En: The decision was made.Hu: Júlia beleegyezett, hogy elmenjenek Athénba, ahol megfelelő ellátást kaphat.En: Júlia agreed to go to Athén, where she could receive appropriate care.Hu: A városba érve, egy nagyobb kórházban végre nyugodt légkör fogadta őket.En: Upon arriving in the city, a calmer atmosphere greeted them in a larger hospital.Hu: Júlia kezelésen esett át, és hamarosan újra mosolygott.En: Júlia underwent treatment and soon smiled again.Hu: Bálint megkönnyebbült.En: Bálint was relieved.Hu: Már nem tartotta magában érzéseit.En: He no longer kept his feelings to himself.Hu: Júlia pedig megértette, hogy néha fontos másokra is támaszkodni.En: And Júlia understood that sometimes it's important to rely on others.Hu: A tengerparti tavasz új jelentést nyert számukra, ahogy kéz a kézben néztek szembe a hullámokkal.En: The seaside spring took on new meaning for them as they faced the waves hand in hand.Hu: Együtt, erősebben, mint valaha.En: Together, stronger than ever.

Imagine if emergency services were suddenly unavailable—do you know who in your neighborhood has life-saving skills? Who could you depend on at 2 a.m. when it matters most? Bill challenges you to look past the usual stockpiles and gear, and instead invest in real relationships, practical know-how, medical readiness, effective communication, food production, and mutual support networks. Break free from complacency and discover how to solve problems—even when technology fails you. Bill reveals surprisingly simple ways to start building self-reliance, no matter where you live.

He discusses how nearshoring differs from traditional offshoring and why countries like Argentina provide strategic advantages for US-based companies seeking skilled engineers and remote professionals. Brian explains the importance of aligned time zones, cultural compatibility, and trust when building high-performing remote teams across borders. Throughout the conversation, Brian dives into the operational side of running a staffing and recruiting business, including scaling remote teams, hiring local recruiters, and creating autonomous work cultures. He also shares insights into entrepreneurship, bootstrapping versus raising capital, and the lessons learned from living and working internationally. The discussion highlights how remote-first business models, minimal overhead, and strong communication practices are reshaping the future of global work and staffing. Takeaways Nearshoring offers major advantages over traditional offshoring for US companies. Latin American talent provides strong technical skills and cultural alignment. Argentina has become a strategic hub for engineering and recruiting talent. Time zone compatibility improves collaboration and productivity. Startup culture helped shape Brian's entrepreneurial mindset. Building trust is essential when managing remote international teams. Remote teams thrive when employees are empowered and autonomous. Hiring local recruiters improves candidate quality and vetting processes. Entrepreneurship often requires balancing lifestyle and business goals. Hawaii's lifestyle influenced Brian's remote-first business model. Bootstrapping can create more operational flexibility than raising capital. Nearshoring reduces many communication challenges associated with offshoring. Cultural understanding is key when expanding internationally. Remote leadership depends heavily on communication and accountability. Latin American professionals often demonstrate resilience and entrepreneurial thinking. Minimal overhead allows remote staffing businesses to scale efficiently. Productive remote work requires trust rather than micromanagement. Recruiting high-level tech talent can generate strong long-term revenue opportunities. Cross-border businesses require adaptability and operational problem-solving. The future of remote staffing will continue growing in Latin America.
