Brad Johnson is the Senior Regenerative Agriculture Advisor for The Nature Conservancy, where he helps farmers across Idaho and beyond explore new ways of working the land that build healthier soils, stronger operations, and more resilient communities. Brad's path into this work is deeply personal—he grew up on a multi-generational farm in northern Idaho, where as a teenager he saw firsthand how no-till practices could dramatically reduce erosion on the steep, fertile hills of his family's farm. That early “aha moment” set him on a winding path through farming, ranching, research, and even a stint in agricultural sales, before eventually joining TNC in 2019. In this conversation, Brad and I dig into the practical realities of regenerative agriculture—what it looks like on the ground, why it's both promising and challenging to scale, and how trust and relationships are every bit as important as science and technology. He shares stories from TNC's demonstration farms, where producers are experimenting with new biological practices that reduce reliance on fungicides and pesticides, and from high school programs where the next generation of Idaho farmers are already putting regenerative methods into practice. Brad's perspective is grounded in lived experience and a genuine respect for the farmers he works with. Whether you're deep in the ag world or simply curious about how food systems can adapt to a changing climate, this episode offers a clear, hopeful look at what's possible when conservation and agriculture work hand in hand. --- Brad Johnson Regenerative Farming at TNC Full episode notes and links: https://mountainandprairie.com/brad-johnson/ --- This episode is brought to you in partnership with the Colorado chapter of The Nature Conservancy and TNC chapters throughout the Western United States.

In this episode of Your Dream Business, I talk about why case studies and testimonials are more than just nice extras — they're essential for building trust and showing what my business can really do. I share my TRUST method — Tell the problem, Roadblock, Uncover what they did, Show the results, Transformation, to help you gather rich, meaningful stories from your clients, not just vague praise. These are the stories that make your work feel real and show potential clients what's possible. I also urge you not to save case studies and testimonials for the end of a project only. I believe they should be woven into every part of your marketing: on your website, in emails, social media, sales pages—everywhere you communicate. By using them regularly, you demonstrate impact consistently, deepen trust, and turn past successes into powerful tools that help attract new business. Key Takeaways 1. Case Studies & Testimonials Build TrustUsing authentic stories of problems → solutions → results helps prospects see what's possible, and builds credibility more effectively than generic claims. 2. TRUST Method for Collecting Testimonials A framework you can follow to get richer, more persuasive testimonials: Tell the problem — What issue was the client facing before? Roadblock — What was stopping them from solving that problem? Uncover what they did — What actions did they take? What intervention / your service / product? Show the results — What measurable change happened? Transformation — How did life/business change for them more broadly beyond the numbers? 3. Use Case Studies Throughout the Marketing Process Don't wait until after a launch or at the end of a project—incorporate stories early (in prospecting, content, emails, etc.). Show incremental wins, before‑and‑after, behind‑the‑scenes: people connect to journey, not just destination. 4. Frequent Sharing is Key Regularly share testimonials & case studies on social media, website, email. Amplifies evidence of success over time—prospects see real proof, consistency, not just occasional highlights. 5. Be Proactive in Asking for Testimonials Make it part of your process: after milestones, at the end of services, or even in the middle when there's already visible progress. Ask clients in a way that prompts for detail: by using the TRUST structure, you get richer content. Practical Examples & Applications Integrate stories into email sequences and sales pages—not just “here's what people said at the end,” but early proof points. Use video or quotes with metrics (e.g. percent increase, time saved) to make results tangible. Mix big transformations and small wins—both are powerful in different contexts (someone just starting out, someone comparing options, etc.). LINKS TO RESOURCES MENTIONED IN TODAY'S EPISODE

What changes and what stays the same as you scale from single neurons up to local populations of neurons up to whole brains? How tuning parameters like the gain in some neural populations affects the dynamical and computational properties of the rest of the system. Those are the main questions my guests today discuss. Michael Breakspear is a professor of Systems Neuroscience and runs the Systems Neuroscience Group at the University of Newcastle in Australia. Mac Shine is back, he was here a few years ago. Mac runs the Shine Lab at the University of Sidney in Australia. Michael and Mac have been collaborating on the questions I mentioned above, using a systems approach to studying brains and cognition. The short summary of what they discovered in their first collaboration is that turning up or down the gain across broad networks of neurons in the brain affects integration - working together - and segregation - working apart. They map this gain modulation on to the ascending arousal pathway, in which the locus coeruleus projects widely throughout the brain distributing noradrenaline. At a certain sweet spot of gain, integration and segregation are balanced near a bifurcation point, near criticality, which maximizes properties that are good for cognition. In their recent collaboration, they used a coarse graining procedure inspired by physics to study the collective dynamics of various sizes of neural populations, going from single neurons to large populations of neurons. Here they found that despite different coding properties at different scales, there are also scale-free properties that suggest neural populations of all sizes, from single neurons to brains, can do cognitive stuff useful for the organism. And they found this is a conserved property across many different species, suggesting it's a universal principle of brain dynamics in general. So we discuss all that, but to get there we talk about what a systems approach to neuroscience is, how systems neuroscience has changed over the years, and how it has inspired the questions Michael and Mac ask.

Send us a textIs this the most misunderstood marriage idea of the year? On our 100th episode, we argue that a **healthy marriage requires saying “I do” to multiple people** not other partners, but every new version of your spouse as they grow, change, fail, heal, and mature.No, this isn't poly, swinging, or sister-wives. It's the bold, biblical, and practical commitment to re-choose each other across seasons, career shifts, kids, body changes, crises, and midlife rewrites.We tackle:Why “find the one” is less powerful than becoming the one for your spouseThe annual State of the Union weekend (yes, including great sex) that keeps you syncedHow curiosity beats control: questions that reignite desire and directionThe roommate trap after the kids leave and how to never end up thereA spicy take on intimacy after 40: why it gets better when you grow togetherTrigger Warning (for the algorithm and the comments): If you think your spouse should stay who they were on your wedding day… you're going to hate this one.Listen, then tell us: How many times have you said “I do” to the new version of your spouse?“Is it betrayal to miss an old version of your spouse or honesty that can help you reconnect?”“What's one way your spouse has changed that you never expected… and how did you adapt?”“Should couples schedule an annual ‘State of the Union' or is that too clinical for romance?”“Hot take: If you won't re-choose your spouse's current self, are you actually married to a memory?”00:00 Cold open: “Is marriage overrated?”04:50 Why “multiple marriages” (to the same person)10:30 The curiosity script: questions that re-ignite connection22:10 The annual State of the Union (and why great sex belongs there)26:30 Roommates after kids, how to avoid it30:45 Intimacy after 40: better than the myths33:40 Roadblocks: nostalgia, control, unrealistic expectations37:10 Final challenge + prayerTwo Awesome PeopleNew Episodes Every Monday and Thursday!Listen on: Apple Podcasts Spotify

In this episode, Jason took a hard look at the Last Planner System, what works, what doesn't, and why it desperately needs a reset. From daily huddles that prioritize foremen over craftworkers, to the misuse of “constraints” vs. real roadblocks, to static boards that kill flow, I pull no punches in critiquing where our industry is stuck. You'll hear why: Morning huddles waste critical craft time (and what to do instead). Roadblocks must replace “constraints” in our language and practice. Visual boards should drive problem-solving, not just display commitments. Why percent plan complete (PPC) isn't enough, we need new KPIs. Pull planning should always use one sticky per day and avoid batching. Lean systems should evolve, not stagnate. If we want Last Planner 2.0 (or 3.0) to actually deliver, we've got to stop repeating bad habits and start building trust, flow, and clarity on our projects.
