Russia is holding parliamentary elections with little doubt about the outcome: the pro-Kremlin United Russia party is expected to retain its dominance. But with the vote taking place more than four years into the war in Ukraine, the election carries symbolic importance for President Vladimir Putin. Analysts say the Kremlin will use the result to demonstrate public support for the government and its military campaign, even as economic pressures, Ukrainian strikes inside Russia and signs of growing war fatigue test public sentiment. The podcast examines how the election is being managed, why anti-war voices have largely been excluded from the ballot, and what turnout, margins of victory and voter coercion may reveal about the state of Russian socie - Трёхдневное голосование на выборах в российский парламент началось, и правящая партия «Единая Россия», поддерживающая президента Владимира Путина, практически гарантированно сохранит власть. Президент представляет эти выборы как показатель уровня поддержки его войны в Украине, при этом большинству антивоенных кандидатов было запрещено участвовать в голосовании.Больше историй, интервью и новостей от SBS Russian доступно здесь.Слушайте программу на русском языке SBS по понедельникам, четвергам и субботам в 12 часов дня.Читайте нас в Facebook и Instagram и подпишитесь на наши подкасты по этой ссылке.

Tertiary Minerals PLC (AIM:TYM, OTC:TTIRF, FRA:TMU) managing director Richard Belcher spoke with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's latest drilling results, including what he described as its best intersection yet: 121 metres at 78 grams per tonne silver equivalent. Belcher said the standout feature was the extent of mineralisation, running from four metres below surface to around 125 metres vertically, with the hole ending in mineralisation and the grade holding consistent throughout. "It's a fantastic result for us," he said. The latest drilling is also giving Tertiary further insight into the potential depth and scale of mineralisation. Belcher explained that several holes have extended beyond the boundary of the existing exploration target, suggesting scope to expand it, with the company also considering whether mineralisation could continue into underlying sulphide zones. He discussed the combination of strong silver grades and higher-grade copper intervals, with ongoing metallurgical test work set to help clarify the significance of the polymetallic mineralisation. Several drill results remain outstanding. Once released, Belcher said the next step is metallurgical test work, feeding into an updated exploration model as the company works towards defining a mineral resource - a milestone Tertiary remains on track to hit by year-end.

There's an in-between space after you make a decision but before the results show up. And it's within that gap that many people give up. In this episode, Mykie Stiller and Arash Vossoughi explore what is really happening in that gap and why staying committed is essential, even when you can't yet see evidence of progress. Arash explains the importance of delayed gratification, unwavering faith, and consistency, and how changes in your standards, thinking, actions, and emotional state can signal that you're moving in the right direction. They discuss why looking for evidence too soon can reinforce doubt, why focusing on the process matters more than watching the scoreboard, and how calmness can signal an approaching breakthrough. Arash also shares how coachability changed his own trajectory and offers practical ways to stay aligned when doubt creeps in. Listen in to learn how to keep doing the work between the decision and the result!Key Points From This Episode:Why most people give up in the space between decisions and results.The importance of delayed gratification, consistency, and unwavering faith.How to identify if someone is making progress: standards, thinking, and actions.Why looking for signs and evidence too early can reinforce doubt.How a calmer emotional state can signal an approaching breakthrough.Why focusing on the process matters more than checking the scoreboard.Ways your old identity can trigger self-sabotage before a breakthrough.How to recognize when you're stuck: chasing, grinding, excuses, and blame.The difference between a wealth identity and a survival identity.Why coachability is essential when working toward your goals.What to tell yourself when doubt and frustration show up.Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Voss Coaching CoVoss Coaching Co on LinkedInVoss Coaching Co on InstagramVoss Coaching Co on FacebookEmail Voss Coaching CoMykie Stiller on LinkedInMykie Stiller on InstagramArash Vossoughi on LinkedInArash Vossoughi on YouTube

Utah Gov. Spencer Cox joins POLITICO's Jonathan Martin at Salt Lake City's Red Iguana for a wide-ranging conversation about his new book, “Off Ramp: How to Be a Peacemaker in an Age of Contempt,” and the forces driving America's political divide.  The Republican governor discusses political violence, social media's role in fueling polarization, his relationship with President Trump and why he says he is not running for president. He also weighs in on the Republican Party's future, immigration reform and what it will take to rebuild trust and community in American life.

The Jets are opening another season in a revenge game, and Evan Roberts has had enough. Evan, Tiki Barber and Shaun Morash run through the bizarre history of former Jets players and coaches immediately getting a shot at their old team, including Robert Saleh, Aaron Rodgers, Sam Darnold and Chad Pennington. Evan also revisits last year's Week 1 loss and makes one thing clear: playing well means nothing if the Jets still lose. The Giants face an intriguing Week 1 trend of their own. Recent Giants head coaches who won their debut went on to make the playoffs, adding even more weight to John Harbaugh's opener against Dallas. Plus, the crew calls out Tommy Lugauer for claiming they never reach out to him despite their active group chat.

If social media feels like a drag — or it isn't working as fast as it needs to — I want you to hear this: Your content probably isn't underperforming because you don't post enough. It's underperforming because you're not telling stories. You're stating facts. And facts don't move people. Facts don't build trust. Stories do. In this episode, I'm handing you something I wish somebody had handed me years ago: a dead-simple storytelling framework called SPARK. You can use it for a reel, a caption, an email, or even a podcast episode. If you're tired of posting into the void — tired of "five tips for better gut health" getting twelve likes from your mom and your business bestie — this one's for you.   In This Episode, We Cover Why "post more" doesn't fix underperforming content Why facts educate but stories connect What people actually buy from a coach (hint: it's belief) Why Google, ChatGPT, and freebies can't replace your story Permission to stop calling storytelling "oversharing" The SPARK method: Situation, Problem, Action, Result, Key takeaway How specificity makes people feel seen — not just informed Naming the real problem underneath the surface problem How to show a result people can actually picture Using SPARK for reels (hook, middle, CTA) Turning client testimonials into stories people finish reading Why one post should carry one SPARK — not your whole biography How storytelling rewrites your relationship to your own story   A Message I Want You to Hear A lot of coaches avoid storytelling because it feels exposing. It feels like too much. You've been trained — by school, by corporate jobs, by the one client who made a snide comment once — to keep it professional, polished, and informational. But people don't buy information. Information is everywhere. Google has it. ChatGPT has it. Your competitor's freebie has it. What people buy is belief. Belief that you understand them. Belief that transformation is possible. Belief that you're the one who can guide them there. And belief isn't built with bullet points. It's built with story. So I want you to let go of the idea that sharing your story is oversharing. It's not oversharing. It's strategy.   Why Your Content Underperforms Here's the truth I keep hearing from clients: Social media feels like a drag. Or it's not converting as fast as it needs to. So they post more tips. More carousels. More "value." And still feel like they're posting into the void. The problem usually isn't volume. It's that the content sells facts instead of telling stories. Facts can educate. Stories make someone stop scrolling, screenshot the post, and send it to a friend. If your content isn't landing, ask yourself: Am I informing people — or am I helping them feel understood?   The SPARK Method I'm giving you a five-part framework called SPARK. You can use it for a reel, a caption, an email, or even a podcast. Grab a pen. S is for Situation. Start by painting the before picture — where you were, or where your client was, before the transformation. Be specific. Not, "I used to feel tired." Try, "I was setting three alarms just to convince myself to get out of bed, and I still hit snooze on all of them." Specificity is what makes people feel seen — not just informed. P is for Problem. Name the real problem. Not the surface-level one. The surface problem might be "I wasn't sleeping." The real problem underneath is often something like, "I didn't believe I deserved rest until I earned it." That's the line that makes somebody screenshot your post. A is for Action. What did you actually do? This is where you get to be the expert without sounding like a lecture. Walk them through the turning point — the one decision, the one conversation, the one framework that changed things. R is for Result. Show the after. Again: specific, not vague. Not, "I feel so much better now." Try, "Six months later, I wake up before my alarm and I don't hate my life at 6:00 AM anymore." Give people something they can picture. K is for Key takeaway. This is the bridge back to your audience. This is where you turn your story into their possibility. One line. Something like: "If you're setting three alarms too, this isn't a discipline problem — it's a self-worth problem, and that's fixable." Situation. Problem. Action. Result. Key takeaway. SPARK. That's the framework.   How to Actually Use SPARK A framework you don't use is just a cute acronym. First, use SPARK for your reels. Situation and Problem are your hook — the first three seconds. Action and Result carry the middle. Key takeaway is your caption or your call to action. Second, use it for client stories — not just your own. Same structure: Situation, Problem, Action, Result, Key takeaway. This is how you turn a testimonial into a story people actually read all the way through instead of skimming past. Third — and this is the part people skip: Don't try to tell the whole story in one post. One post. One SPARK. You have hundreds of these stories in your life and in your client work. Stop trying to cram your whole biography into a single caption. Zoom in. You can also turn a bigger transformation into a series: My client's transformation — one SPARK at a time.   Storytelling Is Stepping Into Your Power Storytelling isn't a content tactic bolted onto your marketing. It's an act of stepping into your power. Every time you tell the truth about where you started, you're doing two things at once: You're building trust with your audience. And you're rewriting your own relationship to your story. I know how easy it is to over-apologize for taking up space. To soften your story until it's polished and safe and forgettable. I want you to notice that instinct — and do the opposite. Tell it specific. Tell it honest. Tell it like it happened. That's what makes people stop scrolling. Not perfection. True.   Your Action Step Take one story — yours or a client's — and run it through SPARK this week. Situation. Problem. Action. Result. Key takeaway. Post it. Then come back and notice how it landed. Don't try to tell everything. One post. One SPARK.   Final Thoughts You don't need more tips lists. You need stories that build belief. Your depth, your turning points, and your honest "before" pictures are not liabilities. They're the reason someone will trust you with their transformation. Keep showing up. Tell it specific. Tell it honest. Your message matters.   Resources Website: https://rachelafeldman.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rachelafeldman Done-for-you offers for health coaches: https://yourhealthcoachbiz.com Need help building your low-ticket or high-ticket coaching offer?

SummaryWanting to lose weight is easy. Doing the things that lead to weight loss over and over again is the hard part.In this episode, Chase and Chris talk about the big difference between wanting a result and being willing to follow the process that creates it. You may want to lose 30, 50, or even 100 pounds. You may want more energy, better health, more confidence, or freedom around food. But those results come from hundreds of small choices made over time. The process is not always exciting. It can mean tracking your food when you do not feel like it, eating similar meals, going for walks, getting enough protein, working out when motivation is low, and getting back on track after a hard day. Chase and Chris explain why you do not have to love every part of the process, but you do need a process you can accept and repeat.They also talk about why motivation eventually fades, how confidence comes from keeping promises to yourself, and why your actions need to match the results you expect. If your current plan feels impossible to follow, the answer may not be to try harder. You may need a simpler plan that actually fits your life.This episode will challenge you to look at what you say you want, what you are actually doing, and whether the two truly match.Chapters(00:33) Do You Want the Result or the Process?(02:07) Your Actions Have to Match Your Goals(03:05) Do You Actually Want What It Takes?(04:53) What Happens When the Honeymoon Phase Ends?(06:41) The Boring Basics That Create Big Transformations(08:07) Why Motivation Will Eventually Let You Down(09:26) Where Real Confidence Actually Comes From(11:53) Getting Through the Boring Middle(13:07) You Don't Have to Love the Process(14:04) Why Results Take Longer Than You Want(15:19) Small Daily Actions Add Up(16:16) Stop Obsessing Over the Scale Without Looking at Your Consistency(18:12) When Your Goals and Actions Don't Match(19:15) Is the Process Hard, or Is Your Plan Wrong?(21:05) A Sustainable Plan Has to Include Real Life(22:34) Your Choices Reveal Your Real Priorities(24:52) Be Honest About Your Level of Commitment(27:26) Build a Life That Supports the Results You WantSUBMIT YOUR QUESTIONS to be answered on the show: https://forms.gle/B6bpTBDYnDcbUkeD7How to Connect with Us:Chase's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/changing_chase/Chris' Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/conquer_fitness2021/Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/665770984678334/Interested in 1:1 Coaching: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/1on1-coachingJoin The Fit Fam Collective: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/fit-fam-collective

Principles For the Wise: The Result of God's Wisdom - Robb Hibbard Hope Church

Toyota didn't beat Mercedes by getting cheaper. It beat Mercedes by getting closer to the customer first. Here's the six-year research obsession behind the Lexus LS 400, and why undercutting your way to a full panel is a strategy that has already failed in a dozen other industries, and what Harvard's own pricing research says to do instead. By Michael Tetreault, Editor-In-Chief, Concierge Medicine Today "I'm a car guy, so bear with me on this one. There will be some good points [in this article], I promise. I know enough about engines to self-diagnose and wrench on them myself. Driving an old car with lifter problems through North Dakota and southern Canada in the '90s will teach you that." ~Michael Tetreault Today's article isn't about concierge medicine directly. It's about a distant cousin in the subscription-based healthcare world, direct primary care, or DPC. Over the past two decades, I've noticed more and more that there is a moment almost every DPC or low-cost, membership-based practice hits around year two or three, when the patient panel quietly stalls (catch the car pun). Growth that used to feel automatic starts to flatten out, and you notice it before you can quite explain it. That's usually right about when a competitor down the road launches at $59 to $93 a month, and a quiet voice in your head says: just drop the price. Fill the seats. Worry about margin later. That instinct is understandable. It is also, according to decades of business research and a growing body of data inside concierge and membership medicine itself, one of the fastest ways to damage the very practice you built to serve patients better. This is not a scolding. It is a strategy conversation, grounded in evidence, for low-cost subscription-based physicians who left, or are considering leaving, the insurance-driven system specifically to build something sustainable that has a low cost for the patients because you feel your altruistic nature pulling you to do so. But, if the goal is sustainability, the tactic matters. What "racing to the bottom" actually means Let's zoom out for a moment. A price war is what happens when competitors inside the same market repeatedly cut prices to undercut one another, creating a cycle where each side matches or beats the last cut. This "price-cutting momentum" pulls in competitors who feel forced to follow the initial price cut, and while it can create short-term benefits for the buyer, it erodes the profit margins of everyone competing. Harvard Business School researchers Akshay Rao and Mark Bergen, writing in Harvard Business Review, built a career studying exactly this dynamic across industries. Their conclusion, echoed by strategists since, is blunt: most price wars are avoidable, and the businesses that start them or get pulled into them rarely come out ahead. The Kinsta business blog, summarizing HBR's own internal analysis of the question, put it plainly: when businesses were asked whether they should engage in a price war, the overwhelming answer was "no." Instead, the research points toward differentiation as the more durable response to a low-cost competitor. There is a second, quieter finding in that same research that some physicians should sit with. Price itself shapes how a buyer perceives value, and a price set too low signals that the product is cheap, in the way a price set too high can signal it is a ripoff. In other words, the discount that was supposed to win the patient can be the very thing that tells the patient your care is not worth much. It's indeed, a delicate balance and it's different for every practice and every doctor. Why? Because of who you work for and serve: the patient. Every patient is different. Every practice is different. That makes this topic challenging but it's a conversation worth having because I want to see your practice thrive and more importantly, survive in your community. The framework underneath the instinct Michael Porter, the Harvard strategist whose work still anchors most first-year MBA curricula, described three durable paths to competitive advantage: cost leadership, differentiation, or a focused niche strategy. A company chooses to compete either through lower costs than its rivals or by differentiating itself along dimensions the customer actually values, in order to command a higher price. What Porter warned against was the position most panic-driven price cuts land a practice in. Porter's phrase for it is "stuck in the middle," and it describes an organization trying to be all things to all people, with no distinct competitive advantage as a result. Businesses caught here typically perform the worst in their industry precisely because they never committed to one strength. A DPC practice that quietly lowers its price to compete on cost, while still trying to deliver same-day access, unhurried visits, and so-called affordable white-glove service, is not competing on cost leadership. It is trying to sell a premium product at a discount price, and the math does not hold. Today, a medical practice or a company stuck in this position cannot beat a true cost leader on price, because it never built the operational discipline or scale to sustain that price, and it cannot beat a differentiator on the experience it promised, because the discipline required to deliver that experience costs money. Both promises erode at once. What the data inside DPC and low-cost membership medicine is already showing This is not theoretical for DPC and low-cost membership medicine practices. It is visible in the industry's own numbers. The 2026 State of DPC survey, distributed through the DPC Alliance and Hint Health's network, found a direct relationship between panel size and price. Practices with fewer than 200 patients averaged $105.93 per member per month, practices with 201 to 500 patients averaged $99.28, and practices with more than 500 patients averaged $77.74 per member per month. Read plainly, the larger the panel, the lower the average price charged per patient. That pattern is exactly what Porter's framework predicts happens to practices chasing volume without a differentiation strategy to protect price. It is worth noting this figure comes from Hint Health, a technology vendor with a commercial interest in DPC's growth, so it should be read as directional industry data rather than an independent audit. It is nonetheless the most comprehensive dataset the movement currently has. At the same time, the broader market is not short on room to compete on value instead of price. More than half of private healthcare consumers rank the cost of care as the most dissatisfying part of their current healthcare experience, and DPC's growth has been driven in large part by employers and patients who are tired of opaque, escalating costs elsewhere in the system, not by DPC being the cheapest option on paper. Employers now fund the majority, roughly 60 percent, of active DPC memberships, according to Hint Health's 2026 trends report, which signals that the buyers filling panels today are increasingly sophisticated purchasers evaluating value, retention, and outcomes, not simply hunting for the lowest sticker price. Regional pricing tells a similar story. Northeast DPC pricing rose 33 percent over five years, from $60 to $80 a month, even as national demand for the model accelerated. Practices in that region did not grow by discounting. They grew while raising price, in a market that was simultaneously expanding. The altruism problem no one names out loud Here is the part of this conversation that is specific to medicine and does not show up in a typical business school case study on price wars. Physicians are trained, deliberately and repeatedly, to put the patient's welfare ahead of their own. Medical professionalism itself is defined in the literature by principles of excellence, accountability, altruism, integrity, and humanism, all oriented around the patient relationship. That formation is not incidental. It is the point of medical education, and it is a genuine strength of the profession that should never be coached out of a physician. But that same formation has a side effect worth naming honestly. A rigorous study out of the University of Cologne and University of Rennes, published in the Journal of Health Economics, measured patient-regarding altruism in 733 medical students at different stages of training. The researchers found that patient-regarding altruism is highest among freshmen, declines significantly through the middle years of medical study, and rises again in the final year as students begin assisting in clinical practice. Students with lower income expectations showed higher altruism scores overall. Sit with that last finding. The training that makes physicians excellent, trustworthy, patient-first clinicians also correlates with a documented discomfort around charging what care is actually worth. That discomfort is admirable in the exam room. It becomes a strategic liability in the business office, where it quietly nudges a physician toward the lowest defensible price rather than the price that reflects the value delivered, the access provided, and the sustainability required to keep serving that same patient for the next twenty years. This is not a call to abandon altruism. It is a call to separate two different questions that get tangled together under stress: am I a good doctor and am I running a sustainable practice. A price built out of guilt is not more altruistic than a price built out of strategy. A closed practice serves no one. What other industries learned the hard way Medicine is not the first field to face this exact temptation, and the businesses that raced to the bottom on price rarely tell a happy ending. Rao and Bergen's HBR research spans industries from B2B and agribusiness to healthcare and the nonprofit sector, and the throughline in that body of work is consistent: firms that respond to a low-price competitor by cutting their own price usually shrink the whole market's profitability without gaining durable share, because the competitor simply cuts again. The winners in price wars, when there are any, tend to be the largest players with the deepest balance sheets, the ones who can absorb losses the longest. A solo or small-group physician practice is almost never that player, and should not try to be. The lesson for low-cost DPC physicians is not abstract. It is Porter's choice, stated as a decision every practice has to make deliberately rather than by drift: compete on being demonstrably, operationally the lowest-cost, highest-efficiency provider in your market, which requires real scale and real systems, or compete on being demonstrably different in a way patients value enough to pay for. Trying to hold both at once is what leaves a practice, in Porter's words, stuck in the middle, with margins too thin to sustain the very things that made the practice worth choosing in the first place. The Lexus Lesson: Price Is a Result, Not a Strategy Circling back to my car guy roots, there is an automotive story worth every physician's attention here, because it is one of the clearest business case studies ever produced on the exact question this article is asking you if you're a DPC physician. It comes from Hagerty's "Revelations" series, hosted by Jason Cammisa, on the origin of the 1989 Lexus LS 400, and it has been retold in detail across automotive trade press and in Chester Dawson's book Lexus: The Relentless Pursuit. The origin story matters as much as the engineering. Toyota's first American export, the Toyopet Crown, was a flop, selling only a few hundred units before Toyota pulled it from the market in the late 1950s. Twenty five years of steady rebuilding later, Toyota had become the largest importer of vehicles into the United States, and that success triggered a protectionist response. In the early 1980s, the U.S. government pressured Japan into so-called voluntary export restraints, capping Japanese auto imports at roughly 1.7 million vehicles a year. With volume capped by government policy, Toyota USA's Yukiyasu Togo pushed a different lever: if the company could not sell more cars, it needed to sell more profitable ones. That constraint, not ambition alone, is what pushed Toyota into the luxury segment. In 1983, Toyota's then chairman Eiji Toyoda greenlit a secret effort known as Project F1, for Flagship One. Where a typical vehicle program of that era might use around 200 engineers and a few hundred million dollars, F1 was reportedly given no fixed budget and a development team of roughly 1,400 engineers, 60 designers, and thousands of additional technicians and support staff, spread across a six-year effort widely reported to have cost in the neighborhood of a billion dollars. What that team actually did is the part physicians should study closely. Rather than guess at what luxury buyers wanted, a team of designers and engineers relocated to a rented house in Laguna Beach, California, and spent months directly observing affluent Americans: watching valet stands outside country clubs, studying the furniture in high-end homes, and even analyzing the leather scent inside Jaguar interiors closely enough to reverse-engineer the tanning process. They tested switchgear and steering wheel ergonomics against how women with long, manicured nails actually interact with a dashboard. This is the practice Toyota calls genchi genbutsu, going to see for yourself, rather than relying on assumptions about the customer. Separately, Toyota's research uncovered something more specific and more useful than "people want a cheaper luxury car." Mercedes-Benz owners loved the prestige of their cars but consistently described the dealership experience itself, the pressure, the wait, the sense of being talked down to, as miserable. Lexus rebuilt the entire buying experience around that single insight. Sales moved from an elevated desk to a shared coffee table, removing the physical power imbalance of a traditional car sale. Only 80 of roughly 1,500 dealer applicants were approved to sell the car, each required to invest several million dollars and submit to ongoing customer satisfaction audits. The product and the experience of buying it were treated as a single, inseparable offer. The engineering discipline underneath all of this was, by most independent accounts, extreme. Chief engineer Ichiro Suzuki pursued a drag coefficient of 0.29, well below the S-Class's 0.36 to 0.37, without relying on a rear spoiler, which he considered an inelegant shortcut. Interior noise was engineered down to roughly 58 decibels versus about 60 for the S-Class, and multiple road tests reported the LS 400 was as quiet at 125 miles per hour as its German rivals were at 95. Prototypes logged well over a million miles of testing, and engineers reportedly disassembled competitor vehicles to study exactly how they failed over years of use, then engineered around each weakness. When the LS 400 launched in 1989, it was priced at roughly $35,000, commonly cited as about half the price, or as much as $30,000 less, than a comparably equipped Mercedes-Benz S-Class. The price gap was so large that BMW reportedly suggested Toyota was selling the car at a loss. Within two years, Lexus had overtaken Mercedes-Benz as the best-selling luxury import brand in the United States and topped J.D. Power's quality and service rankings, and Mercedes is reported to have lost roughly a quarter of its U.S. sales in the aftermath. Here is the part physicians should sit with. The low price was not the strategy. It was the output of the strategy. Toyota did not set out to build a cheaper Mercedes and work backward. It spent six years and enormous resources removing the specific frustrations its own research showed were driving prestige-loving customers away, then engineered a manufacturing process disciplined enough to make that quality repeatable at scale, and only after that work was done did it set a price the market would reward. The aggressive price was possible because the operational excellence and the customer research underneath it were real, not because anyone at Toyota decided to compete by cutting corners. This is the distinction that gets lost when a DPC or low-cost membership medicine practice drops its membership fee simply to fill a panel out of fear. Toyota's price was earned through relentless, well-funded engineering and firsthand study of exactly what its target customer resented about the existing options. A practice that lowers its price without first doing that same work, actually going to see for yourself what frustrates the patients you want to serve, and building a practice that removes those specific frustrations, is doing the opposite of what Lexus did. It is cutting the price before it has earned the right to. The translatable lesson is not "charge less." It is this: find out, directly and specifically, what your patients are actually frustrated by in the healthcare experience they already have, build a practice that removes that frustration with real discipline, treat the entire patient experience, not just the clinical visit, as part of the product, and let price follow from that work rather than substitute for it. Toyota spent six years in the field before it touched the price tag. Most practices considering a discount have not spent six weeks asking patients what specifically is broken in the care they are currently getting. What to build instead None of this means price is fixed or that access should be reserved only for the wealthy. It means the starting question changes. Instead of asking what is the lowest price that will fill my panel, the more durable question is what does my practice do that a patient cannot get anywhere else in this market, and does my price reflect that honestly. That might be same-day access. It might be visit length. It might be a specific clinical focus, a specific population, or a specific relationship to a local employer. Differentiation does not require the highest price in the market. It requires a clear, honest reason for the price you have chosen, one you can say out loud to a patient without flinching. Panel growth built on discounting tends to attract patients who are price-shopping and will leave the moment a cheaper option appears next door. Panel growth built on a clear, differentiated value proposition tends to attract patients who stay, refer, and tolerate a price increase because they understand what they are paying for.

Los neandertales desaparecieron hace unos 42.000 años, pero parte de su ADN continúa presente en los humanos actuales. Un nuevo estudio analiza una variante neandertal del gen que fabrica el receptor de la hormona del crecimiento y revela que una pequeña modificación aumenta la intensidad de la señal que esta hormona transmite a las células. En personas que conservan esta herencia genética, la variante se asocia con una talla ligeramente mayor, más masa muscular y algunos rasgos de la mandíbula y los dientes que recuerdan a los neandertales. ¿Pudo esta mayor capacidad de crecimiento contribuir a su robustez? ¿Y representar también un coste energético en épocas de escasez? Jorge Laborda explica los resultados y explora sus posibles implicaciones evolutivas.

When you really want something to go well, it's easy to start worrying about all the ways it could go wrong. Maybe you want to feel closer to your child, succeed in a new role, have a better relationship, or grow your business. When you're carrying a lot of worry and fear about the outcome, it can affect how you show up. Without realizing it, you can end up creating more of the very thing you were trying to avoid.In this episode, I walk you through three steps for interrupting this pattern when you notice it happening. I explain how the stories we tell ourselves create emotions, how those emotions influence our actions, and how those actions can move us toward or away from the results we actually want. You'll learn how to separate a story from a fact, find the stories that already exist within you that serve you, and ask yourself how you want to show up in the moment.For more information, transcript, and show notes, click here: jenna.coach/120 Join me for a free consultation by clicking here: https://mom.jenna.coach/apply You're invited to join us every 2nd Thursday for my free Mom Entrepreneurs Circle.

Mike, Ali, and Beau continue to react to the Atlanta Falcons finalizing their initial practice squad yesterday, the Falcons claiming linebackers Yasir Abdullah and Jared Ivey and offensive lineman Cameron Williams off waivers, the Falcons waiving defensive backs Jammie Robinson and Natrone Brooks and defensive lineman Zach Harrison, the Falcons placing inside linebacker JD Bertrand on the reserve/injured list, and signing inside linebacker Josh Woods to the active roster yesterday as well. The Morning Shift crew also explains why they think the Falcons waiving defensive lineman Zach Harrison is a result of the team trading for Gervon Dexter Sr.

This is it — the final episode in our Human Skills series, and it's the one that answers the question underneath all the others: so what? What actually changes when you build these skills? In this episode, I walk through the ripple effect of human-centered leadership across five levels: starting with you, then the person in front of you, your team, your organization, and finally, the greater good. Because leadership isn't just about feeling confident in the room. It's about how it feels to be led by you. If you've been with me for this whole series, this is the send-off. And if you're just joining, this is a great place to start. Enjoy!

The mudslide at Gyirong Port along the China-Nepal border in Xizang has killed at least 16 people, with 546 others missing. Rescuers are pushing deeper into the disaster zone while authorities are stepping up monitoring and working to keep emergency communications running.

In Romans 6:15-23, we learn that grace produces righteousness, not sin and we should offer all of ourselves to God, and death doesn't "become" believers.

Hello to you listening wherever your feet touch the ground! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga.   Bernard Moitessier sailed around the world single-handed to win the first Golden Globe Race but when the reward was within his grasp he turned away from it and kept sailing for another three months because to keep on the original route (Plymouth to Plymouth) was like “leaving from nowhere to go nowhere.” [The Long Way by Bernard Moitessier]  Winning this race had no connection with Moitessier's true goal which was to “reach a point in space and consciousness that would enable him to bear witness to the beauty and complexity of the natural world. And to glimpse, however briefly, the sort of person he might become if he permitted himself to cross a kind of international dateline of the soul and merge with those things.” In the end he realized what many of us come to know in time: the journey itself was the destination. Story Prompt: What if the intention of an endeavor is to forge a connection inside yourself? What if the reward to the endeavor lays not in the result to which you were ostensibly striving but in the simple doing of the thing? Write that story and share it out loud!

You probably already know what you need to do. The problem is not information. It is the story underneath your actions. In this solo episode, I break down the SEAR framework: Story, Emotion, Action, Result. If you are not getting the result you want in your business, health, relationships, or money, the issue may be a disempowering belief that is quietly keeping one foot on the brake. In this episode, I cover: The SEAR Framework - How your story creates an emotion, which drives your actions and ultimately your results. Why More Tactics Are Not Always the Answer - If the underlying belief is working against you, a new strategy will only get you so far. How Disempowering Beliefs Show Up - The stories you tell yourself about money, relationships, business, or referral partners can shape how you behave. The “Foot on the Brake” Problem - You can say you want growth while unconsciously doing things that keep you stuck. How to Uncover the Story - A simple exercise can help you identify whether your current beliefs are empowering, neutral, or holding you back. If you are not getting the result you want, do not just change the action.  Start by asking what story is driving it, then replace the belief that is keeping your foot on the brake. — We're bringing BrokerTalks back to Vancouver, Toronto, and Calgary this fall.

The launch didn't convert the way you expected. Someone said no to your proposal. Your content isn't getting the engagement it used to. Sales are quieter this month. And suddenly, you're not looking at a business result anymore. You're questioning yourself. "Maybe I'm not good enough.""Maybe people don't want what I'm selling.""Maybe I've lost my edge.""Maybe this isn't working anymore." This is one of the most important mindset shifts you can make as a business owner: learning to separate what happened from what you make it mean about you. In this episode, we're talking about how to stop attaching your self-worth to every result your business produces and become a more objective, resilient and confident leader because of it.
