Ever wondered if compassion and decisive leadership can coexist? In this powerful conversation with Cal Riley, combat veteran, EOS Implementer, and author of "Entrepreneurial Compassion," Cam and Otis explore what it really means to lead with both strength and heart."It's not compassionate to hold on to somebody if they're not a good fit," Cal explains, challenging the common misconception that compassionate leadership means avoiding tough decisions. "You're doing them a disservice. You're in pain. They're in pain... The whole team sees it."From discussing how EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System) helps leaders understand that "not everybody is good at everything" to sharing his deeply personal mission to create a million compassionate leaders and prevent 100,000 suicides, Cal offers a refreshing perspective on leadership that balances accountability with genuine care.Whether you're a business owner struggling with difficult personnel decisions or a leader looking to create a healthier company culture, Cal's insights on entrepreneurial compassion provide a roadmap for leading differently. Plus, all proceeds from his book go to Stop Soldier Suicide—making this conversation not just informative, but potentially life-saving.More About Cal:Cal Riley is a leadership coach, entrepreneur, and combat veteran who teaches leaders how to serve with both strength and compassion. As an EOS Implementer and business owner himself, he helps founders lead with clarity, communicate effectively, and create cultures where people can thrive. He's the author of Entrepreneurial Compassion: An Entrepreneur'sJourney Through Combat, Suicide, and the Discovery of Compassionate Leadership, a deeply personal and practical guide for founders who want to lead differently. His mission: create 1 million compassionate leaders by 2035 and prevent 100,000 suicides by helping leaders build healthier companies and more humane systems.#CompassionateLeadership #EntrepreneurialCompassion #LeadershipWithHeart #AccountabilityAndEmpathy #EOSLeadership #CultureBuilding #VeteranLeadership #MentalHealthAwareness #PurposeDrivenLeadership #10xYourTeamChapter Times and Titles:From Combat to Compassionate Leadership [00:00 - 15:00]Introduction to Cal Riley and his backgroundThe journey from military service to entrepreneurshipFirst glimpses of the compassion philosophy"It's Not Compassionate to Hold On" [15:01 - 25:00]The misconception about compassionate leadershipWhy keeping poor-fit employees hurts everyoneHow EOS helps leaders make better people decisionsFinding the Right Fit [25:01 - 35:00]"Most people aren't good at most things"Identifying strengths and passionsCreating roles where people can thriveThe Mission: 1 Million Compassionate Leaders [35:01 - 47:00]Cal's personal mission and its originsThe connection between leadership and suicide preventionBuilding healthier companies and more humane systemsTraining vs. Executing in Leadership [47:01 - 55:00]The challenge of setting goals without structureWhy entrepreneurs are "always executing, rarely training"Holding yourself and your team to higher standardsTake the Pledge [55:01 - End]Cal's invitation to become a compassionate leaderThe free survey at CalRiley.comHow to support Stop Soldier Suicide through his bookCal Rileyhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/cal-riley-6482b376/https://x.com/CalinCalRileyhttps://www.facebook.com/people/CultureTeam/100083777013775/https://calriley.com/

ITP - 132 Tristan Reynolds beams in from Taiwan to explain how his startup school stops yappin' about “global citizens” and actually coaches students into action. Think project-based learning with real tools. Teachers act less like wind-up lecterns and more like pit-crew chiefs. The place is young, scrappy, and cosmopolitan enough to turn a literature class into a live fire exercise on language and identity. We detour through semiconductors, gym-hall ballot counting, and Taipei traffic that looks like Mario Kart with medical bills. A local cop cheerfully explains his job is to write the report after the crash, which, honestly, is the most on-brand public-sector energy we've heard in years. Between staff bouncing across continents and students mixing mother tongues like a cocktail, the through-line is simple: teach kids to actually do stuff together, then get out of the way. Also, Tristan never remembers a toothbrush, but he does remember the tiny teapot. Priorities? Just kidding! Tristan experiences countries through local-begotten, everyday items.Links from this show:Tristan's website: www.tristanreynolds.com Tristan Reynolds is an educator and writer who focuses on international best practices in education and the impacts of globalization on education. His work focuses on the importance of creating schools which support celebrating different cultures, and which cultivate a cosmopolitan attitude in students. He holds an M.S.Ed. from Johns Hopkins University, serves as a mentor for the UNSDSN Global Schools Program, and is a 2021 Teach For America alum.Tristan teaches at  VIS Experimental International SchoolThe article mentioned: 'The problem with English' by Mario SaraceniAlso  mentioned PBL:  What is PBL?Chapters(00:00) International Education and Project-Based Learning(05:26) The Role of Technology and Community in Education(10:58) Teaching Methodologies and Student Engagement(16:28) The Dynamics of a New School and Its Growth(19:02) The Journey of Teaching and Student Growth(20:32) Mid-show ITP Connections(21:51) Navigating Transience in International Education(24:26) Colliding Worlds: Stories from the International Circuit(28:04) Cultural Insights from Taiwan(31:18) The Role of Language and Identity in Education(36:42) Creating a Diverse Learning Environment(42:16) Personal Connections and Cultural Artifacts(45:16) Reflections and Future ConnectionsThe International Teacher Podcast is a bi-weekly discussion with experts in international education.

I'm just going to come right out and say it: I hated living in White Lake Township, Michigan! And I'm going to tell you why. Okay, okay – “hate” is a strong word. . In reality, I didn't literally hate White Lake, but it definitely wasn't the best fit for me. Today I want to share my personal, slightly exaggerated review of what it was like living in White Lake – the good, the bad, and the quirky – all from my perspective and trust me when I say I am nitpicking, every city or community has it's good and bads. Remember, this is just one guy's experience, not an objective verdict on White Lake as a whole. So don't take the word “hate” too seriously here; it's more about my preferences and how this town just didn't quite match them. Quick backstory: If you've been following the channel, you might recall I actually made a video about moving to White Lake Township Michigan about three years ago. It was my one-year update after relocating from Brighton, and I talked about all kinds of things – even did a driving tour. And more recently, I made another video about why people say they hate White Lake (yup, I really leaned into that theme). I'll link both of those videos in the description in case you want to check them out later. In that “why people hate White Lake” video, I read real comments from White Lake Township Michigan residents, and let's just say they didn't hold backMENTIONED LINKS ⬇️→Living In White Lake Michigan: https://youtu.be/hiq1s9IfIks?si=B_x35QNBQIbR_sCD→Why People HATE Living In White Lake Michigan: https://youtu.be/yEkAmUxsSP0?si=sWzOgnLFEU29v0lr→White Lake Michigan Vs.

In recent times, India has seen a sharp spike in the popularity of IB schools. In fact, having your kid in an IB school has become something of a status symbol, although that may or may not be the primary motive for most parents. But many parents, regardless of their reasons for choosing an IB school, face a number of confusing questions and dilemmas. For instance, how does the pace of learning for an IB student compare with that of a child in a CBSE school? Will an IB curriculum help a child who wants to sit for IIT or Medical entrance exams in India? If the idea is to prep the child for higher education abroad – when do you decide, how do you figure which stream, which country, and which university? Guests: Nayantara Handa, who leads the careers and university guidance team at The British School, New Delhi, and Sobhana K Nair from The Hindu's Delhi Bureau. Host: G.

To tell us more about it is our guest, Katrina Klein. Katrina is a registered dental hygienist for 16 years, national speaker, author, competitive bodybuilder and certified personal trainer.

Send us a textIn this episode of Writers With Wrinkles, hosts Beth McMullen and Lisa Schmid sit down with literary agent Sheyla Knigge of Highline Literary Collective to talk about the art of building strong author-agent relationships. Sheyla shares her journey into publishing, her approach to championing authors, and the key questions every writer should ask before signing with an agent.Guest Bio: Sheyla Knigge is a literary agent at Highline Literary Collective with nearly two years of experience representing authors and selling books. A lifelong reader who entered agenting during the pandemic, she quickly proved her eye for marketable stories—discovering Where the Dark Stems Still by A.B. Poranek, which became a six-week New York Times bestseller. She now represents 25 clients across genres and is known for her transparency, passion for storytelling, and dedication to uplifting diverse voices.Key Discussion Points:Origin story: how Sheyla transitioned from project management to slush-pile reader to full-time agent.Defining strong partnerships: the importance of open communication, trust, and transparency in the agent-author relationship.Red flags in queries: why writing outside one's lived experience without sensitivity can be problematic, and how Sheyla evaluates submissions.Crucial questions for writers: why asking about an agent's support system and mentorship is essential before signing.When to walk away: how gut checks, excitement about revisions, and true alignment matter more than a “big name.”Wish list: Sheyla's dream project—“murderous cheerleaders,” a mashup of Bring It On meets I Know What You Did Last Summer.Conclusion: Sheyla Knigge reminds writers that publishing is about partnership, not desperation. Choosing the right agent means prioritizing communication, shared vision, and mutual growth over prestige. Her advice encourages authors to seek relationships that set their creative souls on fire, because the right story—and the right fit—will always find its way to readers.Mentioned Links:Highline Literary CollectiveSheyla Knigge on Instagram Support the show Visit the WebsiteWriters with Wrinkles Link Tree for socials and more!

The International Teacher Podcast welcomes Nandini Shah—a self-described small-town girl from Gujarat who swapped arranged-marriage expectations for a globe-trotting teaching career. From Mumbai classrooms to snowy Russia, donkey-dotted Bulgaria, “the most boring city in Japan” (her words, not ours), and soon the Italian Riviera, Nandini shares her story of chasing adventure, fighting stereotypes about who gets to teach Shakespeare, and proving that spices, The Secret, and a stash of U.S. dollars are all you really need to survive abroad. Along the way, we get donkeys, Green Bay Packers jokes, and a reminder that international education isn't just a career—it's a stubbornly wonderful lifestyle.You can visit Nandini's personal Lit Website at https://nandinipshah.wixsite.com/literarytours-more information-The International Teacher Podcast is a bi-weekly discussion with experts in international education.

What if the key to building lasting business relationships wasn't about selling harder, but about genuinely understanding others' perspectives?   In this conversation, Alina Trigub joins Angel to share practical strategies for connecting with people, raising capital, and navigating compliance in real estate syndications. Drawing from Dale Carnegie's timeless principles, Alina explains why empathy, sincerity, and genuine rapport are essential for success. She also breaks down key SEC regulations, including the differences between 506(b) and 506(c) exemptions, and how to avoid costly compliance mistakes.   [00:01 - 03:50] The Power of Positive Interaction How avoiding confrontation keeps conversations flowing in a positive direction. Why making people say “yes” early in a conversation builds rapport. The significance of seeing situations from another person's perspective.   [03:51 - 06:40] Rapport-Building in Action How remembering small personal details, like children's names, strengthens connections. Why sincerity in your smile matters more than you think. The importance of authentic listening to make people feel valued.   [06:41 - 09:31] Practice and Personalization How repeated practice reduces fear and builds confidence. Why you should focus on the strategies that resonate most with you. The importance of implementing a few effective techniques rather than forcing all of them.   [09:32 - 13:01] Compliance and the Rules of Raising Capital What the differences are between 506(b) and 506(c) exemptions. Why understanding “preexisting relationships” is critical for 506(b) offerings. The need to avoid compensation tied directly to capital raised.   [13:02 - 17:11] Finding the Right Fit with Investors How matching investor needs with your offering is like finding the perfect pair of shoes. Why a “no” today doesn't mean “no” forever. The importance of staying connected for future opportunities.   Connect with Alina:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/alinatrigub/   Key Quotes:   “The best way to be successful in anything you do is to understand the other person's point of view.” - Alina Trigub   “Just because they're not the buyer today doesn't mean they won't be the buyer next month.” - Angel Williams     Visit sponsorcloud.io/contact today and unlock $2,000 of free services exclusively for REI Rocks community members!

In this episode of Perimenopause Simplified, Claudia is joined by Dr. Ana Duarte, a medical doctor, expert in anti-aging and longevity medicine, and CSO of Eusari Nutrition. After 15+ years in pharmaceutical research, Ana hit her own perimenopause wall: burnt out, disconnected, and completely unprepared for the changes in her early 40s. That experience led her to pursue advanced training in women's health and longevity – and to discover just how overlooked midlife women are. No roadmap. No conversation. Just silence, shame, and guesswork. So she founded Eusari, a science-backed wellness brand built by and for women in perimenopause and menopause.

What exactly is bookkeeping and why does it matter so much for your business?  In this episode, Danielle Hayden, reformed corporate CFO and CEO of Kickstart Accounting, Inc., breaks down the basics of bookkeeping, explains how it supports your growth, and shares the real-life benefits of staying on top of your numbers. Whether you're just starting out or scaling fast, this is foundational knowledge every business owner needs.  Key Takeaways:  Bookkeeping Is Your Business's Financial Foundation: It's all about recording and organizing every transaction—sales, expenses, and everything in between—so you can make smart, informed decisions.   Cash-Basis Accounting Is Usually the Right Fit for Small Businesses: Unlike big corporations, most small business owners don't need complex systems. Recording transactions when cash hits or leaves your bank account keeps things simple and clear. Timely Bookkeeping Saves You Time, Money, and Stress: When your books are current, you can avoid overpaying in taxes, make better business decisions, and skip the last-minute scramble at tax time. Accurate Books Protect You in Audits and Increase Your Business's Value: Clean records mean you're IRS audit-ready, and if you ever need to sell or get a valuation, your bookkeeping can directly impact your bottom line. As the CEO, You're Still Responsible: Even with a bookkeeper, it's your job to communicate business changes and review your reports regularly. That's how you turn numbers into growth. Special Note for S-Corp Owners: You must have accurate financials to file correctly and stay compliant. That means both income statements and balance sheets—don't skip this step! Topics Discussed: (00:29 – 01:33) What is Bookkeeping and Why Does It Matter?  (01:34 – 03:59) The Difference Between Small Business and Corporate Bookkeeping (04:00 – 08:26) The Benefits of Accurate, Up-to-Date Bookkeeping (08:27 – 09:09) Why Cash Balance Is Not the Full Financial Picture (09:09 – 09:43) Special Considerations for S-Corp Owners (10:19 – 12:37) The Importance of Taking Responsibility for Tracking Your Numbers as a Business Owner   Book a Call with Kickstart Accounting, Inc.: https://www.kickstartaccountinginc.com/book    Connect with Kickstart Accounting, Inc.: Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/Kickstartaccounting YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/@businessbythebooks  Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/kickstartaccountinginc
