We also dive into Umberto's perspective on the current state of the world — from economics and politics to tariffs. We talk about volatility, the fundamental human need for love and connection, regrets, legacy, and much more.Please enjoy this insightful, continued discussion with Umberto Fedeli.On a technical note, due to unexpected issues with our recording equipment at the time of this session, portions of the episode were lost.

DJ Eidson is the President and Co-founder of Limitless Minds, where he spearheads efforts to make elite mindset coaching accessible to everyone. Through their digital platform and programs, Limitless Minds has empowered hundreds of individuals and teams across organizations like Microsoft, Johnson & Johnson, Chick-fil-A, Bristol Myers Squibb, Goldman Sachs, Harvard Business School, and many others to enhance their performance and gain a competitive edge—just as Super Bowl-winning quarterback Russell Wilson, one of DJ's co-founders, has done throughout his career.As a sought-after speaker and co-host of The Room Tilters podcast, DJ shares practical strategies for navigating change, overcoming adversity, and thriving under pressure — and as you'll hear echoed throughout our conversation today, DJ embodies a commitment to excellence, pragmatic stoicism, and an inspirational presence that inspires and empowers others to realize their fullest potential.We cover the parallels between sports and business, the power of mindset, neutral thinking, what it means to be resilient, impacting a billion people, kindness as a business strategy, leading by example, love of Cleveland, and a whole lot more…I find there's a certain magic at the intersection of peak performance and deep humility, and I felt that's exactly where DJ — and this whole conversation — resides. I had a lot of fun listening to DJ's stories, wisdom, and reflections on entrepreneurship, and I hope you all do as well.00:00:00 - From Pharmaceuticals to Entrepreneurship  00:09:35 - The Power of Mindset  00:12:01 - Early Influences and Entrepreneurial Spirit  00:18:39 - Building Limitless Minds  00:22:33 - Evolving Vision and Services  00:24:18 - Lessons from Sports to Business  00:29:10 - Differentiation in a Crowded Market  00:31:31 - Measuring Resiliency  00:32:45 - The Evolution of Limitless Minds  00:37:47 - Understanding Client Impact  00:42:23 - Aiming for Global Impact  00:44:49 - The Importance of Intentional Mindset  00:50:15 - Hidden Gem-----LINKS:https://limitlessminds.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/dj-eidson-limitlessminds/-----SPONSOR:Roundstone InsuranceRoundstone Insurance is proud to sponsor Lay of The Land.

Send us a Text Message.Jeff McNaught owns Edgewater Surf, a surf shop in Rocky River, where he sells a variety of new and used paddleboards, surfboards, and windsurfing gear. The shop also serves as an informal community hub for styrofoam™ recycling. Jeff started this program to provide a local recycling option for the bulky EPS (expanded polystyrene) found inside paddleboards and encasing appliances, TVs, computers, and other large items for customer shipment. This bulky, lightweight, and rigid foam plastic is not accepted in community recycling programs, and the closest recycler is in Dayton, Ohio. Working to fill a community need, Jeff established an EPS drop-off location at his shop and installed a "densifier" with a Food Service Packaging Association grant. This equipment compacts the foam so it can be cost-effectively transported. With both collection and processing up and running, Jeff is now the only processor of post-consumer foam in the Cleveland area while he is still running his shop and getting out on the lake to windsurf. Join us to hear Jeff speak about his vision for scaling this program and what he needs to make it sustainable. Jeff also speaks about what surfing is like in Cleveland and the surfing community and his partnerships with organizations like the Surfrider Foundation working to address problems of plastic pollution. Jeff has turned his passions into his business and is all in. We hope our community will support him.  ResourcesRecycling at Edgewater SurfShop Edgewater SurfAbout Edgewater SurfFollow us: https://www.facebook.com/ecospeaksclehttps://www.instagram.com/ecospeakscleContact us:hello@ecospeakscle.com

Greetings everyone, this is Dave with Mighty Line Minute. Today, I'll be talking about a story some of you may know about others will not. And that's the story of Smoky The War Dog. Read the blog https://mightylinetape.com/a/blog/category/mighty-lines-safety-talk-and-toolbox-talk-topics “In the context of the greatest devastation in planet Earth's history, and the subsequent eradication of over 100 million human beings peopling it, the story about a dog in World War Two is indeed insignificant.” “But wars, large and small, are made up of millions of stories experienced by those involved in the war itself, or by those remaining at home.”  And so begins the story of William A. Wynne in his 1996 Memoir, Yorkie Doodle Dandy.  Bill Wynne, from Cleveland, Ohio, was the U.S. Army Air Force Lieutenant who nurtured and became best friend to a four pound Yorkshire Terrier known as “Smoky.”  Smoky had been found trapped in a foxhole near Nadzab, New Guinea in early March of 1944.  So why am I telling this story? There are reasons that this will soon become apparent. And at the end, you will understand why Smoky and Bill's role in history is so important. I met Bill for the first time, 50 some years ago, and remained his close friend throughout the remainder of his life. Bill passed in 2019 at the age of 99, though not before he was able to encourage the Governor of Ohio to re-open a VA care facility. It had been closed to new residents due to short staffing. And he accomplished this from his hospital bed. Bill was one of those people you would instantly enjoy from the moment you met him. He developed many relationships as everyone wanted to be his friend. His heart of gold seemed to find the best in all. And he enjoyed and found value in each and every day of his life, no matter how difficult.  Like my own father, they both answered the call to serve during World War II and were raised similarly. My father was deployed in the U.S. Army Infantry in the Philippines. Bill served in the Army Air Force, where he was an aerial reconnaissance photographer throughout the Southwest Pacific.  Bill had the rare opportunity to keep his personal collection of rare photography, that later became an important part of his legacy.  Smoky's final resting place is only about a mile away from Mighty Line's headquarters in Rocky River, Ohio. It's a lovely walk on a beautiful day, and the Smoky Memorial can be located on a map search if you'd like to visit the Cleveland Area MetroParks. Other memorials to Smoky exist throughout the world, including Brisbane, Australia and the Air Force Museum in Dayton, Ohio.  Smoky was aptly named by Bill for her smoky-gray hair, and soon became an entertainer trained by Bill. She was a fast learner, able to select her own name from disarranged letters, ride her own scooter, and walk on a carefully and safely constructed two cable tight wire. Comfort and healing was soon provided by this dynamic duo to servicemen who were recovering in military hospitals. A serviceman who had been unable to speak for many months began to speak once again after Smoky was handed to him, put in his arms as nurses cried.  Smoky flew on numerous combat and reconnaissance missions with Bill, and was soon named “Mascot of the Southwest Pacific” by YANK Magazine Down Under in its July, 1944 issue. Post-war, Bill and Smoky continued their service by visiting hospitals, orphanages and performing at live events and many venues. After a stint in Hollywood training dogs, including a film with Ronald Reagan, Bill returned to Cleveland to appear with Smoky on weekly live television that featured many of Smoky's tricks. Bill was always pleased to note that with every show on those Sunday mornings a new trick was performed by Smoky.  Smoky, however, may be best known for her role in delivering a critical communication line. This line was delivered through a silt-laden, 70 foot drain pipe located beneath an active Lingayen Gulf airstrip. Large number of planes and personnel would otherwise have been exposed to certain enemy aircraft fire in the event of the excavation that would have otherwise been required to deliver the communication line.  Bill was proud that Smoky became known as the first therapy dog of record. This was due to her early well-documented and photographed roles in military hospitals. Especially as she served to support those suffering from PTSD.  You can actually hear Bill with Smoky communicate from the Philippines, along with the American Red Cross in the short film "Angel in a Foxhole" that was produced and now streams on Vimeo. So why is Smoky's story important? Smoky has certainly generated an immense following in the dog world. Even more importantly, in the human caring for mankind. Smoky, through Bill, provided a means by which Bill himself was able to move through a difficult time in World War II, including times where Smoky saved his life. You can read Yorkie Doodle Dandy to learn more about those stories.  Smoky and Bill went on to serve and further encourage the therapy dog movement, providing significant support to the PTSD support world.  In the words of one film festival reviewer, "God sent down one of his angels in the perfect disguise as man's best friend." And so we have it. Smoky's mark on the world, summed up in 15 words. On behalf of ShieldMark Inc., be sure to check out Mighty Line's awesome selection of industrial and commercial floor signs and markings as well as what's known as the world's most durable floor tape. Their products are designed to elevate workplace safety, facilitate safe egress, improve safe lift truck travel, and assure heightened employee morale.

Greetings everyone, and welcome back to Mighty Line Monday Minute. I'm here to talk about effective safety messaging. Last week, we talked about the critical nature of using phrases and how often those are heard in Safety, but what really is effective? So let's get into it! Learn more about Mighty Line Minute  Mighty Line Floor Tape We also talked about how to improve upon phrases we've heard before, rather than say, "Be prepared for the unexpected," "Risk assess, educate, communicate, then mitigate." Today on Monday, April 8th, 2024, a total solar eclipse will first appear to those in the U.S. at Eagle Pass, Texas. And at 3:15 PM Eastern Daylight Time the headquarters of Mighty Line Tape in Rocky River, Ohio will see its first total eclipse in more than a century! Of course I won't be at my desk at 3:15, as this important event represents a once in a lifetime opportunity to observe, share, and celebrate with family and friends. And to think that in many ancient cultures, solar eclipses were often interpreted as signs or omens from the gods or supernatural beings. In some cultures they were even seen as a manifestation of divine anger or displeasure. Or as a punishment for sins or wrongdoing. Some cultures believe that a solar eclipse occurred when a celestial creature or monster temporarily swallowed the sun! Today, solar eclipses are significant events that capture the attention and imagination of everyone, leading to a rich tapestry of beliefs, interpretations, rituals, and connections across many different cultures. So why am I telling stories today? Well, with safety, and especially for the art of effective safety messaging, it is often essential to begin by telling stories. That is because you can use those moments to catch and engage the interest of others, particularly if you want listeners to be able to take action with information that you plan on delivering. That is critical if you're hoping to change behavior and impact safety culture in a positive way. So the next time you plan on delivering a safety presentation or giving a toolbox talk, try telling a story first. Engage your listeners in that manner, as opposed to simply talking about statistics, regulations, or even delivering charts. Just try it! So, yes folks soon I will be donning my ISO protective eyewear for the solar eclipse and assure that everyone around me does so as well. I hope that you are able to learn from this. Most importantly, I hope that you continue to improve in your safety communications and take advantage of the tips that we have provided. Do take a moment to listen to Mighty Line and what they have to say about their products and how they can be of help to you in assuring a safe workplace.

Morgan wants to stay off social media for the entire show today...find out why!! We discuss what's happening to Sean "P Diddy Puff Daddy" Combs and we're pretty horrified, to be honest. In 10 years, are we going to be watching Browns football on the Lakefront or in a DOME?!? Morgan is afraid that she's going to have to hug co-workers this week as she says goodbye, and Bill tries to give her good advice. Daniel from Twinsburg called up for "Group Therapy" but for some reason began to ignore us and went on his own personal RANT!! Plus, Battle of the Burbs, Morgan needed some wedding planning help, and are coyotes on the loose in Rocky River?!?

Hear about what happened at Independence Middle School on Tuesday, February 27th during the 7th grade basketball game vs. Rocky River that inspired Bill to share the story on the air.

Is social media now becoming a hobby for some people?? Plus, Battle of the Burbs, Finn's Moment, and what's the most inappropriate place you've seen someone take a selfie?!?
