Being an Autistic human often pairs with a complex relationship with emotions. Just the question, "How do you feel," can feel so uncomfortable and spark anxiety, panic, and avoidance, often resulting in pre-planned responses or an answer that makes you think, "What the hell am I saying right now?" In her initial session with a new therapist, Megan Anna, an Autistic psychologist, unintentionally exposed her genuine feelings about emotions, inadvertently confessing, "I hate emotions." In this episode, you'll hear the personal experiences and realizations of both Patrick and Megan Anna around emotions, communication, and navigating relationships. If you or someone you know struggles with expressing emotions or feeling understood and connected to others, then this episode is for you. Top 3 reasons to listen to the entire episode: Understand how Autistic people may display emotions differently and the challenges we face in navigating and expressing our emotions. Identify signs of sensory overload, what can trigger it, and some methods to help self-soothe and regulate. Learn how and which tools and technologies to use to improve and aid in communication  By gaining a deeper understanding of Autistic emotions, we gain the potential for greater self-awareness which can empower us to embrace our authentic selves, and foster meaningful connections.

The water crisis in Jackson, Mississippi, was foreseeable and preventable. Did white evangelicalism's anti-government attitude contribute to the catastrophe? Washington Post columnist Michael Gerson has yet another take on the evangelical infatuation with Trump. Do we need any more? And a recent article by theologian Kirsten Sanders says we've entered a new era of evangelicalism where online influencers are shaping the movement more than pastors or institutions. Then, Skye and Kaitlyn discuss the belief held by some American Christians that the Constitution was inspired by God. Where did this view come from? Why is it dangerous? And why is it finding new popularity today? Plus, Phil plops a headline.

“That time of the month” - We all know what this is code for right?   We create separation when we speak in ‘code' about our own body. Part of the shaming, silencing & taboo around periods is our participation in not naming them.   In Claire's household, she has changed her language (& over several years educated her partner to do the same).   In her household, they name it - “I'm bleeding”   There's a reason women feel the subtle need to silence their own periods - we're discussing those reasons with period coach Claire Baker on the podcast. Unpacking these subtle generation - old reasons is useful in understanding how the silence & shaming came to be.    But it's our bodies that create the future. How you speak about your period determines the future for periods.   In this discussion with Jenna & Claire we explore: Why we have been socialized to think of periods as messy, inconvenient affairs - naming the generation & centuries-old systems suppressing the magic of menstruation Claire & Jenna share their first bleed experiences & the practices they now bring to their bleed Cycle awareness - what is it, how to get started & what to do if your period is painful or you feel selfish for making your world revolve around your bleed Initiation and self-initiation (at any age) into the womb cave   Claire Baker is a sought-after period coach, author and speaker. For nearly a decade Claire has taught thousands of women how to live in harmony with their menstrual cycle, rather than working against it. Claire believes menstrual cycle awareness is the missing key in women's wellbeing, empowerment and creativity, and her immersive online courses and workshops inspire women to know their flow and become the authority in their own lives. Claire's online program Adore Your Cycle has students in over 35 countries.   With a background in visual arts and creative business, Claire is a certified health and lifecoach, has studied Menstruality Leadership and is a trained natural fertility teacher. Known for her authentic voice and ability to ‘make periods fun', Claire is regularly featured in publications such as Red, Glamour, and Women's Health magazine. Originally from Australia, Claire now lives in sunny East London and spends her days coaching, teaching, writing, dancing and being as close to trees as she possibly can.   Find out more about Claire's work at https://www.clairebaker.com   -------------- RESOURCES Resources mentioned in this podcast: Find out more about Claire's work at https://www.clairebaker.com Feminine Embodiment Coaching - an emotional embodiment & vulnerability-based professional training for coaches School of Embodied Arts Leave a podcast review on iTunes here Thought or reflection to share?

When was the last time you cleaned and disinfected your cellphone? If it has been a while, I bet it will become a priority after you hear the beginning of this episode. Listen as I explain just how germ-ridden your cellphone is and why you should clean it much more often than you probably do. https://www.statefoodsafety.com/Resources/Resources/the-dirty-cell-phone-25-127-bacteria-per-square-inch# It's not the big crises in life that wear us down, it is the little everyday hassles, problems and frustrations that really take a toll. And it's how you handle those little things that really determine the quality of your life. That's according to Dr Samantha Boardman, a clinical instructor in psychiatry and attending psychiatrist at Weill Cornell Medical College. She is founder of https://www.PositivePrescription.com and author of the book Everyday Vitality: Turning Stress into Strength (https://amzn.to/3szCZHB). Samantha joins me with some really practical suggestions to navigate the daily hassles we all face and not let them take a toll on your happiness and wellbeing.  When you walk into an Italian or Chinese or Mexican restaurant, you have a pretty good idea of the kind of food you will see on the menu. But what about American food? Is there an American cuisine? What do people in other countries think of when they think of American food? That's what Paul Freedman decided to explore. Paul is a history professor at Yale University and author of the book American Cuisine: And How it Got This Way (https://amzn.to/3JjoO03). Listen as he explains the history and stories that shaped what we eat today. Is happiness really good for your health and longevity? Sort of but not necessarily in the way you think. Listen as I explain what researchers found that will make you want to be happy and stay happy. http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/news/magazine/happiness-stress-heart-disease PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!

Rebekah is a writer, author, and entrepreneur. Her work has appeared in Forbes, Business Insider, New York Times, HuffPost Comedy, Chicken Soup for the Soul: Be You, and countless other publications.

We hardly hear about retail shopping centers. Why? Because it's always about multifamily. In an industry where everybody's into multifamily, we can only wonder how someone can possibly get disillusioned with multifamily investing. In this episode of Wealth Science Podcast, Anthony Pinto shares his life as an active duty real estate investor, how retail shopping centers become eCommerce proof, why you should invest in community-scale retail centers, the common challenges for incoming investors, what investors do not look into when linking with potential partners, and so much more. Why invest in retail shopping centers? Find out in this episode of Wealth Science with guest Anthony Pinto! The Life of a Retail Shopping Center Investor Being a real estate investor in and of itself requires genuine hard work. But, for Anthony, an active duty who invests all the way from Japan, it is levels and levels higher. During his early years as an investor, Anthony focused heavily on multifamily deals. His first-ever property was a quad under a VA loan. Now, he advocates and invests in small-scale retail shopping centers at the community level of different localities. So how does an active duty submarine officer do it? Most of the time that people spend doing deals in America, Anthony spends sleeping. Because of this, communication is a challenge. To go above the problem, Anthony puts in tremendous willpower to adjust his lifestyle and keep these deals rolling. He wakes up four-thirty in the morning, spends hours from five to seven to attend calls, then leaves for his actual W-2 in the navy for another eight hours of work. Life is hectic, Anthony admits. But why does he do it? For him, it goes back to “if not me, then who?” Find out what potential Anthony Pinto finds in retail shopping centers in this episode of Wealth Science! About Anthony Pinto: Anthony Pinto is the Founder and Principal of Pinto Capital Investments and is a successful entrepreneur, apartment building syndicator, and an Active Duty Submarine Officer who invests long-distance. Some of his hobbies outside of work are spent on running, hiking, and reading. Outline of the Episode: [02:24] I didn't want to stay in the navy for the rest of my life.

The trials and tribulations of the job search are not unlike those we face in regular life. There are ups, downs, setbacks, waiting, watching, hoping, and success. In our job search, it can be frustrating to continue if we've been giving energy to the negative side, but if we have solutions to the things that set us back, we can land our dream job much faster. Think about this concept when it comes to your job search. There's going to be 50% of life and your job search that goes great, and there's going to be 50% that doesn't feel good, or isn't going the way you want it to. What is awesome about 50/50 is when you know that it's normal ahead of time, you don't over celebrate the good stuff, and you also don't stress out about the bad stuff. In this episode, I help you overcome the common job search challenges. I uncover the framework you need to break down and complete challenges that come up. I cover organization, thoughts you tell yourself, context, Thursdays, and more within this multi-episode miniseries.

We’re at a moment in time where we’re seeing, hearing and feeling so much by events that are no longer part of what Mother Gaia (Earth) stands for, of what humanity stands for. We are seeing events unfold that are based on a dictatorial system, on an archaic system that no longer belongs in our human race (because there is only one race and that is us, humans). In today’s episode, we discuss the current events that are being unfolded right here right now in the United States. We dive into the reasons why blaming, victimizing and coercing and indirectly guilt tripping people into performing an action only creates more war, more aggression, more fighting, more separation rather than actual, tangible and sustainable solutions.We begin today's episode with a cleansing Breathwork to rinse energies that we may have picked up from the past few weeks.

In previous episodes, we've talked about the importance of computer science and coding, the opportunities that open up for students when they do get exposed to this education, and how hard it can be for schools and teachers to really ramp up computer science programs. The good news is there are some amazing organizations out in the world that are trying to be partners in this space. And today, we’re talking with Alice Steinglass, who is the President of Code.org, one of the biggest and most experienced organizations in this space.  Plus, Code.org has some incredible resources for parents and teachers during the current health crisis — and we know that there are a lot of parents looking for resources like this right now!

Welcome to Finance and Fury Today we have Jayden with us, and we will be talking about Interest rates. The first Tuesday of every month, the RBA releases the updates on the cash rate. The markets currently appear to be going down, and the cash rate reflects a negative trend. The markets show that it will gradually reduce from 1.5% to 1.25% in August and in 2020 down to 1%. Fixed Interest Rates are HUGELY popular right now. And they’re only going to become more popular if interest rates continue to go up. The question is: How do you know if fixed rates are for you? Or if now is a good time to fix?    Fixed Rate Basics Fixed interest rates (also known as fixed rate home loans) are interest rates that will not change for a period of time, usually between one to five years. Variable rates can move up, and down depending on a range of factors – fixed interest rates remain static, giving you certainty on the repayment of your loan.   Why you might Need Fixed Interest Rates Fixed interest rates are a way to reduce the risk of your loan repayments increasing During the fixed rate period your repayment cannot change for the period set for Regardless of the bank, market or RBA interest rate movements. Great for budgeting future payments   When Fixed Rates might not suit you The flip side is also true, so if interest rates decrease in the market the lower rate is not passed onto you, but that’s just the start. Fixed home loans do come with a few limitations when compared to variable home loans. Australian lenders severely limit how much you can make in additional repayments per year. If you got paid a large bonus, received a tax refund or wanted to make additional repayments over the set ones – you will have to pay a penalty. Penalties – break costs: why would you want to break a loan? Interest rates have come down significantly, sold a property and need to pay back the loan Break Cost = Loan amount prepaid * (Interest Rate Differential) * Remaining Term. $500,000 is fixed for 5 years and then is entirely repaid by the customer with 2.5 years The loan was fixed was 5.50% p.a. - current 2.5-year bank rate 3.50% p.a (2% difference) = $25,000 If you sell the property, you could violate the loan contract and have to pay the break cost Extra repayments limited Depending on the bank or lender, it is possible to pay extra on your fixed rate loan. Amounts – they range from $5-20k p.a. or $30k over the life of the loan No offset accounts - if you have cash saved up, it won't offset interest   Things to consider Economists sometimes don’t get it right, with certainty they will suggest markets will go up, but in our time we have seen this not to be the case a few times It all depends on international markets Options for fixing your rates 1 year fixed rate - don’t like committing for too long a period for all the reasons outlined above Interest rates could drop over the medium term, you might want to make additional repayments or look at selling your home in the next few years. The benefit is that you will be able to budget around your loan payments over the next 12 months, Rates - The fixed rate market is constantly changing and depends on the money and bond market. Markets think rates will go up, 1 year less than 5 years - RBA indicator – drop of 0.25% 6 months, 0.25% early 2020 If markets think rates will go down, 5 years less than 1 - 3 and 5 year fixed rates most popular.  Help avoid any volatility in the money markets.  Get more benefit from fixing for 3 years Similar to variable rates A 5 year fixed rate will give you the highest amount of certainty of your mortgage repayments. Banks can be negotiable longer-term fixed rates Longer-term fixed rates are not suitable for everyone –additional repayments, sell the property or need extra flexibility on your loan like an offset account – it might not be a good idea. As the market has become more competitive banks have brought their interest rate offers closer to one another. Other considerations: The cheapest rate does not mean paying the lowest amount of interest Application and ongoing fees - Cheap doesn’t always mean good with fixed rates Larger banks will be a bit cheeky and in a bid to make a little extra money when your fixed rate period expires Redraw facilities – Similar making extra repayments, some fixed rate lenders will allow you to take out the funds as redraw. A word of warning here, while some lenders will let you make extra repayments – some will consider withdrawing the funds as redraw ‘breaking’ the fixed rate contract, and charge you LARGE fees to access your own funds! Interest In Advanced– This is a terrific product for property investors and allows you to make bulk tax deductions by pre-paying your interest before 30th June. It can be beneficial from a cash flow and interest rate discount perspective, with some lenders giving you discounts of up to 0.20% off their regular fixed rates. Split loans - Best of Both Worlds – Diversify risk across portions of the total loan   A quick word of warning I’ve said it once, and I’ll say it again – a fixed rate isn’t for everyone. I fixed my rates a few years ago worrying that interest rates were going to shoot up. And they did, for a few months.   Thank you for listening.

I recently shared strategies for using podcasts in human resources and employee communications. This week I wanted to talk more about using podcasts for human resources  or rather more specifically, recruiting. It’s hard to calculate the true costs of hiring an employee. But what we do know from some studies and research is this: in 2016, SHRM reported that the average cost per hire was $4129. And, in 2017 Training magazine reported that the average cost to a company per learner was $1075. With the average annual turnover rate hovering in the 10% – 20% range, making wrong decisions when you hire someone can get costly, very quickly.What if there was a way to filter the applicants that just want a job versus those applicants that want a job with YOUR company because they already know and have fallen in love with your company’s culture and mission?  Hiring an applicant that is a loyal fan of your company and its culture will surely reduce turnover rates and save you recruiting dollars. But how can you do this? By way of podcasting, of course! In this episode, you’ll hear: How companies like Marriott and GEICO are using podcasting as an effective way to publicize their EVP (employee value proposition) Benefits of using a podcast for employee recruitment and connection     Are you too close to your business? I can help you: look at your business in a new way, add value by helping you avoid pitfalls, shorten any learning curves and get results. Don’t go on your podcasting journey alone.

We wrap up the You do Belong in Science series with listener stories and lessons learned from this series. Listeners write in with stories about the importance of professors' LGBTQ allyship and dealing with chronic illness in graduate school. We reveal who does not belong in science (spoiler alert/content advisory, it's sexual harassers). We also welcome allyship correspondent Jon Muncie to discuss actions everyone can take to prevent and respond to sexual harassment in the workplace, fairly judge peers' research, and increase representation and promote inclusion of people from underrepresented groups in STEM. He reminds us that we need to get comfortable being uncomfortable when it comes to discussing and addressing these important issues facing our science workplaces.

Stacy Tuschl is a speaker, business coach, and the owner of The Academy of Performing Arts in Wisconsin. She is the author of the book, “Is Your Business Worth Saving?”, where she reveals proven strategies for pulling entrepreneurs out of a rut and launching them toward business success. Welcome to my first Business Rescue Roadmap solocast. In this solocast, I’m going to be talking about something that is crucial to the success of your business. You need to surround yourself with people who work hard to achieve your company’s goals. When you hire new employees you need to make sure the individuals that you’re bringing on have the necessary skills and the experience to excel in their role and bring value to your company. In this episode, I’m going to discuss with you the key areas to focus on during the hiring process to ensure that your company attracts and hires quality candidates that will stick around long-term and provide value. Some highlights include: Can you ensure that the position will be long-term? You shouldn’t hire an employee if you’re going to have to let them go right away. (minute 1:00) Ask for more than a resume and a cover letter. This is a good strategy for making sure people have actually read your job description. You don’t want to sift through generic resumes. (minute 3:00) Set up systems to speed up the hiring process next time. (minute 5:00) Schedule interviews for the same position as close together as possible. This way you are easily able to compare and contrast the candidates. (minute 7:00) Consider the needs of your candidates. Give your candidates a timeline so they know when to expect to hear from you. (minute 12:00) Trust your instinct. When your gut tells you not to hire someone, don’t hire that person. (minute 14:00) Hire slow, and fire fast. You need to make sure you hire with a long-term strategy in mind.

Follow-Up to the Tom DeMarco Interview I trust you had the opportunity to listen to both episodes of my interview with Tom DeMarco. He's a guy who has uniquely impacted the world of projects, and it was certainly a pleasure for me to talk with him. His books are insightful, practical, and even a bit a quirky (in a good way) at times. But I'm confident that if you're in the software development side of project management or leadership, you'll get value from his books. In this premium episode, I follow-up on some issues that Tom and I touched on that are relevant whether or not your projects are related to software development. Tom's ideas truly span further than that domain. I cover topics such as: The myth of "The more pressure, the better" Why having only a 50%-70% likelihood of success could be a good thing Why stressed brains do not learn the same way as non-stressed brains Where the line crosses between stress being a good thing and it becoming a dangerous thing One additional factor that impacts workplace stress and productivity (and it's none of your business!) Why it can help to realize that all your team members are volunteer employees Max DePree's secret for learning how effective of a leader you are "It's not what you don't know that kills you. It's what you know that just isn't so." Are we changing people or just amusing them?
