What if the decline in childhood mental health, self-regulation, and academic engagement could be traced back to a missing piece of the school day? In this powerful and passionate episode of The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, Ginny Yurich sits down with the founding team of Say Yes to Recess, a grassroots movement turned national nonprofit fighting for more play, more time outside, and more humanity in our schools. With just 22 minutes of average daily recess—and many kids getting even less—this conversation peels back the layers of how educational priorities have shifted dangerously away from the needs of the whole child. The team shares how they went from frustrated parents to successful policy changemakers and how you can start a chapter in your own state. This is the rallying cry. Recess is not a break from learning—it is learning. Movement builds brains. Free play teaches the life skills that Fortune 500 CEOs are begging for. And the best part? Kids want to do it. Say Yes to Recess is leading the charge, and this episode shows you why the time to act is now. Visit sayyestorecess.com to learn more, donate, or launch a chapter in your state.

Read Online“You do not know what you are asking. Can you drink the chalice that I am going to drink?” They said to him, “We can.” He replied, “My chalice you will indeed drink, but to sit at my right and at my left, this is not mine to give but is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father.”  Matthew 20:22–23Saint James was the brother of the beloved disciple John and the son of Zebedee and Salome. Jesus called both James and John while they were working with their father, mending their fishing nets in their boat. Their response to Jesus' call was immediate: “...they left their father Zebedee in the boat along with the hired men and followed him” (Mark 1:20). James was present at the raising of Jarius' daughter, the Transfiguration, and is mentioned a few other times in the Gospels. In the Acts of the Apostles, James is identified as the first of the Apostles to give his life as a martyr, being beheaded by Herod in Jerusalem in the year 44 AD (See Acts 12:2).Among the other references to Saint James in the Gospels is the passage quoted above in which Salome, the mother of James and John, asks Jesus for the unique favor of allowing her two sons to sit at His left and right in His Kingdom. Upon her request on behalf of her two sons, Jesus turns to them and asks if they can drink the chalice that He is going to drink, to which they respond, “We can.” And though this is a bold request on their parts and that of their mother, there is also something courageous and holy about their request.Just prior to this passage, as Jesus journeyed to Jerusalem with the Twelve, He explained to them the fate that awaited Him. “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be handed over to the chief priests and the scribes, and they will condemn him to death, and hand him over to the Gentiles to be mocked and scourged and crucified, and he will be raised on the third day” (Matthew 20:18–19). This was the third time that Jesus explained this to the Twelve and, therefore, it must have started to truly sink in. It is within this context that James and John ask to remain close to Jesus in His mission of establishing His Kingdom, even though Jesus explained that the path to that Kingdom was His suffering and death.Each of us should learn from James and John. Though their request might have had some selfishness mixed in with it, it was also courageous. It showed they did not fear Jesus' prediction of His passion. Instead, they wanted to be part of it and were willing to endure whatever was necessary so as to share in the glory of the Kingdom to come. Reflect, today, upon making a similar request to our Lord. Say to Him that you desire to be close to Him in His Kingdom, and do so with the full knowledge that the path to this glory is by drinking the chalice of selfless sacrifice that Christ drank. It is obtained by courageously following Him, no matter what that requires of you. If that means suffering and persecution, so be it. If that means great sacrifice, so be it. If that means abandoning certain hopes and dreams, so be it. See yourself walking with these disciples and Jesus on the road to Jerusalem where our Lord would offer His life in sacrifice. Saint James would soon follow, dying by the sword of Herod. Say “Yes” to whatever our Lord asks of you and commit yourself to the drinking of the chalice of selfless sacrificial love. Doing so will enable you to share in the glory of the Kingdom of Heaven. My glorious King, You invite all people to share in Your glorious Kingdom to come. May I enter that Kingdom with all the saints and fully share in its glory. I choose that path that leads to that Kingdom and willingly offer my life in sacrifice to You and for others.

We're diving into one of the trickiest—and most talked-about—topics in modern motherhood: snacks. In this episode, we unpack the cultural obsession with constant snacking, how it impacts our kids' health (and appetites), and why we've made it a priority to rethink the way we snack in our homes.   We share what's actually working in our families, how we set snack boundaries without shame, the importance of protein and fat in between meals, and why saying “no” to endless snacks isn't mean—it's loving. If you've ever felt stuck between feeding your kids something or fighting a snack battle every afternoon, this conversation will meet you right where you are.

When your services are too complicated, clients get confused, and confused people don't book. In this episode of the Marketing Your Private Practice podcast, I help holistic therapist Maggie Hunt with steps to simplify her services so more clients say yes to working with her. If you're a dietitian, therapist, or service provider who's struggled to explain what you do or felt stuck trying to list every service on your website, this episode is for you.We walk through the biggest reason clients aren't buying complicated service packages. It's not because your services aren't good, it's because you're confusing people with long lists of various services and tons of content about what you use or do when working with them. It's too much information. They don't understand what you offer. The more complicated your services page, the less likely someone is to hit that book now button.This episode is from one of my Free Marketing Reviews that I offer to practice owners to help them figure out what's blocking their marketing from getting results and what steps they can take to fix it.Marketing plans for dietitians and therapists are often made more complicated than they need to be. So why not get a second opinion? You can book your own free review with me too; you'll find the link in the resources below.If you're ready to grow your practice with more ease and clients, this episode will help you get started.Be sure to check out the resources mentioned on our show notes page at http://marketingyourprivatepractice.com/160  Book your own free marketing review with Kathy C - https://pepperitmarketing.com/reviewClick here to send Kathy a text message about this Episode

Flight attendants are asking for more than better pay. They're asking to be seen for the long hours, the missed time with family, and the toll that decades of demanding schedules have taken on their lives.Michael Desrosiers reconnects with Ken Diaz, a longtime flight attendant and the lead negotiator for United's union, to talk through the tentative agreement now in the hands of the members. Ken speaks openly about what the union won, what it couldn't, and why he's choosing to vote yes. But this isn't just a breakdown of numbers. It's a conversation about trust, exhaustion, and the weight of past sacrifices. What does progress look like when you're still recovering from losses you were never compensated for? How do you measure fairness in an industry that's built on constant motion and limited rest?Through personal stories and straight talk, Ken and Michael dig into the real meaning of value at work - what it costs, who decides, and why the stakes feel higher than ever.Episode Breakdown:00:00 Inside the Tentative Agreement04:06 Ken Diaz on Voting as a Working Flight Attendant09:09 Breaking Down Retirement Contributions13:02 Healthcare Wins and Work Rule Protections20:00 The Push for Boarding Pay and Fair Scheduling24:55 Why Ground Pay Remains Out of Reach34:34 Fatigue, Safety, and the Human Cost of Airline Work42:35 Final Thoughts and What's Next in the SeriesLinkscuckoo4politics.comhttps://www.instagram.com/cuckoo_4_politics/https://www.facebook.com/Cuckoo-4-Politics-104093938102793https://www.tiktok.com/@usercuckoo4politicshttps://bsky.app/profile/cuckoo4politics.bsky.socialPodcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

Love tenderizes everything. I tell myself this upon waking, when darkness gives way to dew and even the desert becomes supple again. Love tenderizes everything. I repeat it at dusk, as we sit on the portal and the sky swirls above us. I tell myself this when my daughter rests her head on my chest with a sigh, and murmur it like an incantation in moments when my heart feels cracked and crusted over, when the world's roughness scrapes against my senses.Love tenderizes everything.Take, for example, Andrea Gibson's “Say Yes.” I have carried this poem like an olive branch since my early twenties. It begins with the physics of resonance: “When two violins are placed in a room, if a chord on one violin is struck, the other will sound the note. If this is your definition of hope, this is for you.”I remember the heaviness I carried back then—the sense of distance I felt from myself and every other living thing, except for those few magnificent friends and family members who stayed near through that long, shadowed season. Yet somehow, the poet's voice—two violins, a shared note—evoked the earthly harmonies of life, even then. Those lines nested inside me, tending to the wounded place as only poetry can: with its small sticks, feathers, and flickers of song.Grief is never singular. Like love, it layers in harmonics above the baseline of our existence. A father's voice saying hi, sweetie, carries the ache of a future absence braided into today's loving presence. There is grief for the unraveling of our ecological sanity and safety; for the unnamed burdens children carry, and our longing to keep them well and near. Sometimes there are wisps of sorrow for the unwritten books and furniture of that other life—the one I did not choose. There is grief, too, for the relentless rush of time, for how we quicken away from our bodies' native pace.And then there are the most visceral reminders of our fragile, mutual keeping—the incontrovertible losses that stun with their seeming impartiality, confronting us with the vulnerability of a life that was just here but is no longer.Today, again, the world rushes in—unpredictable and uncertain. Thankfully, for this moment, I can adjust to a gentler lens. My body settles into the bruise, albeit tender to the touch. I want to tell everyone how needful it is to be kind, how we depend on love, and then I want to share the delight of a child who has just discovered raspberries fruiting on their vines.The weight of love—its 10,000 joys and 10,000 sorrows—shapes the day into something bearable and even, at times, beautiful. And in the wake of Andrea's passing, as their words—earnest, luminous—seem all at once everywhere, startled into the air like a murder of crows in an open field, I find myself bowing to the gift of yet another poem that undoes me and then puts me back together again.“every time i ever said i want to die”by Andrea GibsonA difficult life is not lessworth living than a gentle one.Joy is simply easier to carrythan sorrow. And your heartcould lift a city from how longyou've spent holding what's beennearly impossible to hold.This world needs thosewho know how to do that.Those who could find a tunnelthat has no light at the end of it,and hold it up like a telescopeto know the darknessalso contains truths that couldbring the light to its knees.Grief astronomer, adjust the lens,look close, tell us what you see.Together, we are making sense of being human in an era of radical change.

What do you do when temptation won't go away? What if saying no comes at a personal cost? In this powerful episode, Stephen Davey walks through Genesis 39 to explore one of the most famous and challenging moments in Joseph's life. Far from home, surrounded by luxury, and working for one of Egypt's most powerful men, Joseph suddenly faces relentless temptation. But instead of giving in, he chooses integrity over indulgence; even when no one is watching. Stephen outlines three categories of temptation—material, personal, and sensual—and shows how Joseph faced all three. Despite being young, alone, and unrecognized in a foreign land, Joseph lived as though God was right beside him. That kind of integrity wasn't convenient. It led to false accusation, a ruined reputation, and prison. But it also led to something more important: God's continued presence and favor. This episode reminds you that temptation may not disappear after one victory—and resistance may not bring immediate reward. But as Stephen explains, God's plan is still in motion, and His presence is never removed. Whether you're struggling with compromise, craving recognition, or facing personal pressure, this message will help you stand firm. Saying no may not feel like a win today—but in God's plan, it always is.

Read Online“Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am meek and humble of heart; and you will find rest for yourselves. For my yoke is easy, and my burden light.” Matthew 11:29–30For those first followers of Jesus, a “yoke” was a familiar term. Many would have worked with oxen and other animals on a regular basis to plow their fields. To do so, they would place a wooden yoke over the oxen, which was a form of harness that was also attached to the plow, making it easier for the oxen to till the soil. To be strapped with a yoke was an indication of servitude, since that was the role of the oxen.In commenting upon this passage, Saint Augustine (in Sermon 126) analogized the yoke of Christ with the wings of a bird. A bird's wings are large in comparison to its body. As a result, if someone were to conclude that removing the wings from a bird would make its life easier by ridding it of that excess weight, such an action would have the effect of keeping it bound to the earth. But give its wings back and that “yoke” will enable it to soar through the skies.So it is with the yoke of our Lord. If we accept the invitation to be a servant of God and we take upon ourselves the yoke of Christ for the fulfillment of our mission of service, we will discover that the act of serving lightens us, refreshes us, invigorates us and energizes us. Service of God is what we are made for, just as a bird is made to have wings. And like the bird, if we remove the yoke of service of God from our lives, then we are weighed down and cannot accomplish the good we are meant to do.We are also told in this passage that we are not to carry our yoke; rather, we are meant to carry Christ's yoke. “Take my yoke upon you…,” Jesus said. Carrying Jesus' yoke means we are called to live our lives with Him and in Him. He came to serve and to give His life for others. It is our duty to do the same by allowing Him to do so within us. It is Christ and His servitude that must be the motivation and foundation of our lives. Reflect, today, upon your call to be a servant in Christ. How is God calling you to serve? Whom is God calling you to serve? And as you answer that question, how do you see your act of service? Does service seem burdensome to you? Or do you understand that it is what you are made for? If you do see humble service as a burden, then perhaps that is because you have not actually tried to serve with and in Christ Himself. Try to ponder Jesus placing His yoke upon your shoulders. Say “Yes” to that act and to the mission of humble service you are called to fulfill. Doing so wholeheartedly will not only refresh you, it will also give meaning and purpose to your life. My gentle Lord, You came to us to serve and to give Your life out of love. Give me the grace I need to accept Your act of service to me and to also imitate and participate in the service to which I am called. May I take Your yoke upon me, dear Lord, so that I can fulfill the mission that You have entrusted to me. Jesus, I trust in You.Shoulder My Yoke by Lawrence OP, license CC BY-NC-ND 2.0.Source of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.

You didn't start your business to undercharge and feel undervalued. But too many entrepreneurs price their services based on time, tasks, or what feels “reasonable,” especially when the work comes naturally.

We'll explore how to reframe your pricing so it reflects your expertise, the outcomes you create, and the bigger impact you want to make. When you charge in alignment with the results you provide, not only do you build a more profitable business, but you also create more space to give back, support causes you care about, and serve your clients at a higher level.

Read OnlineA woman suffering hemorrhages for twelve years came up behind him and touched the tassel on his cloak. She said to herself, “If only I can touch his cloak, I shall be cured.” Jesus turned around and saw her, and said, “Courage, daughter!  Your faith has saved you.” And from that hour the woman was cured. Matthew 9:20–21What a tremendous amount of faith this woman had! She had suffered for many years and continued to suffer with her hemorrhages. How did she know that touching Jesus' cloak would cure her? The only answer to that is faith. Faith is not just wishful thinking or hoping. Faith is a certain knowledge, given by a special grace and revelation from God, by which a person freely assents to belief. God spoke to her heart, she listened, she responded, and she was cured.One thing that is very inspiring in this Gospel story is the humility with which this woman approached Jesus. She didn't feel as though she needed to bother Jesus, to speak to Him, or to trouble Him with her problem. Instead, in her humility, she presented her need to Jesus through her gift of faith, interiorly and silently, and the grace of God was given her because God sees the heart and responds to such humble and sincere faith.Imagine if everyone had this depth of faith in our Lord. Imagine if all of us knew, with the deepest conviction of certitude, that God would take care of every need we have. And imagine if we turned to our Lord with this deep conviction of certitude every day with every need. If we could do that, then our Lord would be able to continually care for us in every way.One key component to this woman's healing is that it was God the Father who spoke to her and invited her to touch the cloak of His Son Jesus. And it was Jesus who sensed the healing she received, since He was in perfect union with the will of His Father. Therefore, touching Jesus' cloak was not simply a magical act by which whatever this woman wanted would be granted to her. Instead, it was a response to the interior invitation she was given by the Father.In our lives, we must work to do the same. Too often we present our preferences to God and tell Him what we want Him to do. God does not respond to such requests. Instead, we must seek His will...and His will alone. This woman knew she would be healed, because God the Father spoke to her in her mind and heart and inspired her to touch the cloak of Jesus His Son, and she responded, and the healing took place. God must speak first, we must hear and respond, and then His will is accomplished. Reflect, today, upon the gentle Voice of God as He speaks to you in the depths of your heart. Do you hear Him? What is He inviting you to do? What healing does He want to bestow? As you ponder God's Voice, try to respond only to Him. Set aside all of your own preferences and ideas of what God should do and seek only what He is speaking to you. Say “Yes” to Him, do so with certitude and conviction, and trust that whatever He speaks to you, if you have faith in what He says, He will do it. My gentle Lord, You speak to me day and night, calling me to the healing I need. Help me to hear Your Voice and to respond to You in faith. May my faith and confidence in You grow strong and become the source of Your glorious action in my life. Jesus, I do trust in You.Image: Internet Archive Book Images, No restrictions, via Wikimedia CommonsSource of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life! Inc.
