Coach Tory and Coach Don preview and record Everything Fast Pitch episode 409 via Zoom, highlighting a listener-driven show and thanking supporters on patreon.com/everythingfastpitch. In the warmup “Did You Know,” they note three Division I undefeated teams at the time of recording—Tennessee, Florida, and Alabama—and discuss SEC strength and ongoing top-team dominance. The city of the week is Huntsville, Alabama, with mention of strong softball in the area, UAH's Division II success, and local universities. Player of the week is Bronwyn Conroy (College of Charleston), recognized as rookie of the week after a standout week including five runs, nine hits, three RBIs, and multiple stolen bases; they share Don's prior familiarity with her and invite more nominations via email. The equipment tip promotes Square Cuts training discs (FastPitchPrep.com), priced at $49.95 per dozen, with YouTube demos and varied uses beyond hitting. A listener question asks how transfers, extra eligibility, and NIL may shift Division I recruiting; they agree programs increasingly prioritize proven portal players while still pursuing elite high school recruits, and discuss pressure to win, scholarship changes, and financial strains on athletic departments. In the leadoff segment, they debate travel ball teams advertising “non-parent coaches,” arguing it doesn't guarantee fairness or quality and that many parent coaches are highly committed, while paid non-parent coaches can still have biases. In the cleanup segment, they address an 8U team rotating players every inning, supporting multi-position development but recommending more consistent innings/roles so players can learn from mistakes. The coaching tip focuses on helping players choose the right bat (length/weight), discouraging gimmicky sizing formulas and knee-jerk changes based on short-term results, and recommending the longest/heaviest bat a player can swing with good bat speed and control, while noting the cost and rapid outgrowing of expensive bats.Support the show

Episode 151: The Words Matter: Small Language Shifts That Make a Big DifferenceThe words we use as school counselors matter more than we sometimes realize.In this practical episode, I talk about everyday phrases we often say automatically and how small shifts in language can create more safety, validation, and trust for students, parents, staff, and ourselves.This isn't about doing things wrong. It's about becoming more intentional with our words, especially when we're tired, rushed, or navigating emotional situations.In this episode, we explore:Why phrases like “It's going to be okay” or “At least…” don't always land as intendedLanguage shifts that validate emotions without escalating themHow curiosity-based phrasing changes the tone of conversationsWays to reduce defensiveness when working with parents and teachersWhy scripts are a helpful support during high-emotion momentsHow the language we use with ourselves impacts burnout and longevityAs you move through your week, I invite you to notice your language without judging it. Just notice where a small shift might help someone feel more seen, heard, and supported.You don't need to change everything. One intentional change can make a real difference.Thank you for the heart you bring to this work every single day.Mentioned in this episode:Perks Membership

In this episode, MichaelAaron and Richard explore how small behavioral shifts can boost happiness. Drawing on research into the hedonic treadmill, pro-social spending, experiences over possessions, and the power of anticipation, they unpack practical, science-backed ways to increase joy in everyday life.
Paradigm shifts are when we come to understand that what we took as a reality is, in fact, not the deeper truth of things and it startles our systems enough into seeing the ourselves, each other or the the world through a whole new lens. Feeling into paradigm shifts helps shed light on the basic shift we are uncovering with our mindfulness practice.
In this March 2026 Energy Forecast, Emily shares the collective messages coming through for a powerful month of energetic reset, destined redirection, and deep embodiment as we move from Pisces season into Aries season and the Astrological New Year. March is a “homecoming” month, meaning you're not being asked to become someone new… you're being called back to who you really are. With multiple planetary activations to the North Node (destiny point), Mercury retrograde in Pisces, and a Virgo lunar eclipse on 3/3, this month brings clearing, closure, and major clarity around your life path, relationships, community, and lifestyle. This episode is equal parts grounded and mystical with a strong reminder: your mindset shapes your reality. Emily reframes Mercury retrograde and eclipse season as divine tools for realignment, not punishment. Stay until the end for a custom card pull with three color options (purple, blue, green) for your personalized message for March!
Being asked to come in for a trial shift can feel exciting…and slightly confusing. Is it a great sign? Is it free labour? And how do you actually perform well when you're being assessed in real time?In this week's episode, Sarah and Emma unpack what you can expect at a trial shift, and why it's often less about skill, and more about how you show up.We discuss what employers are actually looking for when they see you “in action,” especially in hands-on and customer-facing roles.Most importantly, we'll help you shift your mindset. Because a trial isn't just about being tested, it's your opportunity to decide whether the job is right for you too.
Stephen Grootes speaks to Miyelani Holeni about what Enoch Godongwana signalled in the Budget Speech, a decisive shift toward enforcing fiscal discipline at municipal level to fix failing water and electricity services, with the City of Johannesburg collecting billions in water revenue but reinvesting only a fraction and contributing to a R64 billion backlog. The Finance Minister warned that diverting service revenue away from infrastructure maintenance risks systemic collapse.

Send a textThis conversation explores the power of pausing—choosing awareness over reaction in a rapidly changing world. "Pausing long enough to respond with awareness." As shifts in technology, AI, and market dynamics accelerate, the discussion highlights the importance of staying grounded rather than being pulled by fear or urgency. "AI is just another part of the change."...I can either work forward and be enthusiastic or be down." The hosts reflect on intuition and spiritual awareness as practical stabilizers, offering perspective on how to navigate change with clarity and self-trust. AI is examined not as a threat or authority, but as a tool—useful for organization and intellect—while personal responsibility and inner guidance remain central.Ultimately, this episode invites listeners to respond consciously, embrace change thoughtfully, and use evolving circumstances as an opportunity for growth.

In today's episode, host Wayne Whitzell is joined by researcher and associate professor Dr. Jake Smithwick to break down the data behind shrinking labor pools, rising safety risks and productivity challenges, and why so many new technicians are entering the field without hands-on experience.

This episode explores the future of search and digital discoverability with an experienced SEO executive and growth advisor who has worked with high-growth marketplaces and SaaS companies. The conversation unpacks how the mechanics of online discovery are being reshaped by AI, shifting user behavior, and the declining reliability of traditional traffic channels. Together, we examine why visibility is no longer just a marketing function but a product and experience challenge — where trust, intent, and usefulness determine whether users discover and choose a product. The discussion also covers how teams should rethink SEO from a tactical ranking exercise into a strategic growth capability, what durable acquisition looks like today, and how organizations can adapt their playbooks to stay relevant as search continues to evolve.
In today's market, access to capital has become more restricted, with banks lending less than in previous years. The real estate market may feel stagnant, and stock prices appear high relative to historical norms.However, periods of market uncertainty can often create opportunities for those who are well-positioned to act strategically.In this episode, we examine six investment strategies that some investors are exploring in the current environment along with two strategies that we, as long-term investors, are considering.Here's what we cover:The rise of service businesses (HVAC, plumbing, electrical) as resilient industries in uncertain timesThe role of private credit in offering potential returns for qualified investorsA shift toward fundamental investing strategies in public marketsReal estate opportunities in times of market correctionThe potential for alternative real estate models like boutique hotelsUnderstanding government incentives in housing marketsWe also break down:Active vs passive investingPE rollups and what it could mean for consumersEvaluating risk tolerance vs risk capacityIf you've felt “reluctantly optimistic” about this market… this episode is for you.The right move at the wrong time is the wrong move.This content is for informational purposes only, is not offered as investment advice and should not be deemed as investment advice, and reflects the opinions and projections of COMMUNE as of the date of publication, which are subject to change without notice at any time subsequent to the date of issue.

Life does not move in straight lines. Plans change. People leave. Seasons shift. Pressure arrives without warning. In Built for Disruption, we examine the reality that disruption is not something to avoid but something to prepare for. This episode unpacks a foundational truth: when pressure hits, you do not rise to the occasion. You fall back on your preparation. Adaptability is not discovered in crisis. It is built in calm seasons through daily discipline, structure, and intentional discomfort. We explore how disruption reveals what you have actually built your life on. If stability depends on comfort or outcomes, disruption will shake you. If identity is tied to a role or title, disruption will threaten you. But when identity is anchored in values and reinforced by consistent discipline, disruption becomes a refining force rather than a destructive one. This conversation also introduces practical steps for building capacity. Protecting non negotiables. Training discomfort on purpose. Separating emotion from identity. Increasing margin before it is required. Deciding who you are before pressure demands it. Leadership maturity is not measured by how well you perform when things are predictable. It is revealed by how steady you remain when everything shifts. Disruption is coming. Preparation is optional. This episode challenges you to choose discipline now so that when life demands hard things later, you are ready. Thank you for joining us on this insightful journey!

In this podcast, Greg Voisen sits down with world-renowned psychologist and author Dr. Elisha Goldstein to discuss his transformative book, Tiny Shifts. They dive into why even the most successful "high achievers" often feel stuck in an "overwhelm loop"—a state of chronic stress where productivity remains high, but internal peace is non-existent. Dr. Goldstein explains that while we obsess over physical hacks like diet and sleep, we often ignore the emotional health that holds everything together. Through vulnerable storytelling and clinical insight, he reveals how small, intentional emotional pivots can break the cycle of burnout and reconnect you to a life of genuine meaning.
On Monday's Good Morning Hospitality, A Skift Podcast, Wil Slickers, Michael Goldin, Brandreth Canaley, and Jamie Lane dig into the latest headlines shaping online travel, short-term rentals, and platform strategy. Otamiser has secured $2M in fresh capital to scale its AI-driven revenue platform for hotels and STR operators, highlighting continued investor interest in tech that boosts OTA visibility and revenue. Airbnb is testing loyalty benefits — exploring non-traditional perks and potential paid-member mechanics that CEO Brian Chesky says could be a “massive accelerant” for repeat stays. The team also breaks down how Airbnb's hotel strategy is expanding far beyond pilot programs into broader markets, revisiting its competitive stance versus OTAs like Booking.com and others. Tripadvisor CEO Matt Goldberg acknowledged in a confidential memo that recent share price volatility and investor frustration with slow AI progress are weighing on the business, while Sabre Corporation announced layoffs and leadership reshuffles as it pivots toward becoming an “AI-native” tech provider.

Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today, we delve into the dynamic landscape of these industries, exploring significant regulatory shifts, scientific breakthroughs, and strategic corporate maneuvers that are shaping the future of healthcare.The pharmaceutical and biotech sectors are currently navigating a period of profound transition. Recent regulatory developments have captured attention, particularly the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to overturn emergency tariffs imposed by the previous administration. This ruling is pivotal as it alleviates financial pressures on the industry, allowing companies to redirect their resources towards innovation and development. It underscores the interconnectedness of global supply chains and highlights the importance of stable regulatory environments for fostering industry growth.In a notable advancement within oncology, AstraZeneca has achieved FDA approval for its combination therapy of Calquence and Venclexta as an all-oral regimen for first-line chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). This approval not only positions AstraZeneca competitively in the BTK inhibitor market but also signifies a shift towards more patient-friendly treatment regimens. By simplifying therapy, this development promises to enhance patient compliance and improve outcomes, challenging existing standards in CLL care.Meanwhile, internal challenges at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have led to a postponement of a critical vaccine advisory panel meeting. This delay occurs amid evolving vaccine policies that have sparked debate within the public health community, potentially impacting immunization strategies and initiatives aimed at bolstering public health.Corporate governance within the industry is also experiencing shifts. Novo Nordisk has nominated two industry veterans to its board as part of an ongoing strategy to align leadership with evolving business objectives. Similarly, Roche is contemplating divesting its once-blockbuster antibiotic Rocephin in response to competitive pressures from generics in Europe. These moves reflect a broader industry trend where companies are re-evaluating their portfolios to better respond to market dynamics and patent expirations.Novartis is making strategic changes as well by selling its stake in Novartis India Limited while maintaining separate commercial and R&D interests in the region. This action highlights a growing trend among pharmaceutical giants towards streamlining operations and focusing on high-growth areas—a strategy aimed at maximizing resource allocation efficiency.Despite narrowly missing a $1 billion revenue target for 2025, Madrigal Pharmaceuticals remains optimistic about the growth prospects of its drug Rezdiifra within the metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) market. The company anticipates further expansion driven by unmet medical needs, underscoring the competitive dynamics within this therapeutic area.In personnel movements that could influence strategic directions, Daiichi Sankyo has appointed former Novartis CMO John Tsai as head of its R&D division. His expertise is expected to bolster Daiichi's focus on oncology and other critical therapeutic areas, potentially accelerating innovation within their drug development pipeline.Meanwhile, Manus Bio has secured a $15 million contract with the U.S. government for domestic supply of shikimic acid, an essential component for producing Tamiflu. This contract highlights efforts to strengthen domestic pharmaceutical supply chains amid global uncertainties—a crucial consideration for ensuring medication availability during crises.In clinical research, a setback was observed with Grail's Galleri cancer blood test trial failing to meet its primary endpoint in collaboration with the NHS.

## **Sermon Summary: Misdirected Zeal (Romans 9:30–10:4)**How do we become right with God? Drawing from Romans 9:30-10:4, this message challenges us to examine whether we are running in the right spiritual direction or exhausting ourselves trying to earn God's favor through religious performance. Using the example of Jim Marshall's 1964 "wrong-way" run, we see a sobering truth: we can be sincere and zealous, yet completely miss Jesus.The Apostle Paul reveals a paradox—those not seeking righteousness found it through faith, while those striving for it through works missed it entirely. This message exposes the dead-end road of works-based salvation, showing that Jesus did what we could never do. Salvation is not something we achieve, but something we receive.---### **1. Salvation by Works Is a Dead-End Road*** **The Shocking Contrast:** Gentiles received righteousness by **faith**, while Israel pursued the law but failed to arrive because they sought it by **works**.* **The "Wrong Way" Story:** Like Jim Marshall, many do "right things" (effort, hustle) but run toward the wrong end zone.* **Seven Problems with Works-Based Salvation:**1. Sets an **impossible standard** of perfection.2. Produces **pride** (superiority) or **despair** (never enough).3. Shifts glory from **God to self**.4. **Misuses the law** as a ladder rather than a mirror.5. Cannot **change the heart**.6. **Rejects Christ's sufficiency**; if we can do it, He died in vain.7. Leads to **spiritual exhaustion** and joyless duty.### **2. Humble, Don't Stumble*** **The Stumbling Stone:** You either build your life on Christ or stumble over Him in offense and self-trust.* **Zeal Without Knowledge:** Israel had passion and heritage but ignored God's righteousness to establish their own.* **Paul's Perspective (Phil 3:3–9):** Paul traded his massive religious résumé for the "surpassing worth of knowing Christ," putting no confidence in the flesh.### **3. Christ the Fulfillment & Our Mission*** **The Goal:** Romans 10:4 declares Christ is the *telos* (end/fulfillment) of the law.* **Intercession:** Paul moves from debate to deep prayer for the saved. If we have received grace, we will long for others to know Him.* **The Beautiful Mission:** Salvation is near—confess with your mouth and believe in your heart. But how will they hear without someone preaching?---### **Practical Applications**1. **Check Your End Zone:** Are you trusting Christ alone or your "Christian résumé"? Repent of self-righteousness.2. **Trade Exhaustion for Rest:** Lay down performance-based "earning" and walk in grace.3. **Choose Humility:** When Scripture confronts your pride, choose quick repentance over defensiveness.4. **Relationship over Rules:** Shift from *knowing about* Jesus to *knowing* Him through daily rhythms of prayer and obedience.5. **Join the Mission:** List three people to pray for by name and look for ways to share the Gospel.---### **Discussion Questions**1. Where have you experienced the "dead-end road" of performance-based Christianity?2. What does your spiritual résumé look like, and why is it hard to let go of?3. How do you distinguish between religious zeal and actually knowing God?4. Which of the "7 problems with works" resonates most with you right now?5. How does Romans 10:4 (Christ as the "end" of the law) change your daily motivation?6. Who are you committing to pray for this week?
Markets moved higher this week while continuing to work through a longer-term consolidation phase that has defined much of the year so far. For the week, the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 0.3%, the S&P 500 rose 1.1%, and the Nasdaq advanced 1.5%. Year to date, the Dow leads at +3.3%, the S&P 500 is up 0.9%, and the Nasdaq remains down 1.5%. From a technical perspective, the S&P 500 continues to trade within the consolidation range discussed on recent programs. Resistance near 7,000 remains intact, while the 50-day moving average has acted as a recurring support level. By week's end, the index moved back above that average, reinforcing the pattern of sideways movement rather than sustained decline. The Money Wise guys emphasize that this type of consolidation following strong prior gains is typical in market cycles, allowing valuations to normalize and confidence to rebuild. Technology stocks, which drove much of the prior advance, are also becoming more attractively valued after multiple compressions, creating selective opportunities within the sector. Market Resilience During Policy Shifts A major development during the week was the Supreme Court ruling on tariffs tied to the April 2025 trade actions. The Court struck down the specific legal provision previously used, but markets absorbed the news calmly as the administration moved quickly to implement tariffs through other existing authorities. The guys note that the muted market response reflected investors' understanding that trade policy direction remains largely unchanged despite the legal shift. In the second hour, the Money Wise guys explore RIA vs. Broker. You don't want to miss the details!

Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. Today, we're diving into a series of transformative events reshaping the industry landscape, from scientific breakthroughs to regulatory shifts and strategic corporate maneuvers.Let's start with Insmed's Brinsupri, a newly approved respiratory therapy that has captured attention with its projected $1 billion in sales by 2026. This ambitious forecast is grounded in Brinsupri's robust clinical efficacy and the increasing demand for innovative respiratory treatments. This development reflects a broader industry trend where targeted therapies are not only improving patient outcomes but also driving significant revenue growth. As respiratory conditions continue to be a major health challenge globally, the success of therapies like Brinsupri underscores the potential for innovation to meet these critical needs.In parallel, Merck is working strategically with its RSV antibody, Enflonsia, seeking a second-season approval to bolster its competitive stance against Sanofi and AstraZeneca's Beyfortus. The race in infant RSV prevention is intense as companies vie to establish dominance in this crucial segment of infectious disease management. Merck's efforts highlight the broader push within the industry to develop preventive measures that could significantly alter public health landscapes by reducing the incidence of severe respiratory illnesses in vulnerable populations.Meanwhile, regulatory scrutiny remains a constant for pharmaceutical companies. The FDA's recent review of Johnson & Johnson's advertising for Tremfya, targeting ulcerative colitis, emphasizes the agency's commitment to ensuring that efficacy claims are both truthful and transparent. This serves as a reminder of the importance of maintaining regulatory compliance and ethical advertising practices within the industry—a critical aspect as companies navigate complex marketing landscapes while ensuring patient trust.Shifts in leadership within key health organizations are also noteworthy. Jay Bhattacharya stepping into the role of acting CDC chief after Jim O'Neill's departure could signal changes in public health policy and research priorities. Such transitions can have profound effects on how emerging health challenges are addressed, potentially influencing everything from vaccine distribution strategies to research funding allocations.As we turn to policy discussions, President Donald Trump's most favored nation drug pricing proposal continues to stir debate. This initiative aims to lower drug prices by benchmarking them against international rates, but it faces resistance from free-market advocates who argue it could stifle pharmaceutical innovation. The ongoing discussion around drug pricing reform is pivotal, as it impacts both patient access to medications and the incentives for companies to invest in new drug development.Strategic realignments in the contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) sector are also making headlines. Recipharm's sale of its Israeli API plant to Scinai Immunotherapeutics, alongside a new CDMO partnership, illustrates how companies are optimizing resources to focus on core competencies and expand service offerings. This strategic shift highlights the dynamic nature of CDMOs as they adapt to changing market demands and technological advancements.In Alzheimer's research, there's promising news with a study suggesting that a blood test could predict when symptoms will appear, representing a significant leap forward in early diagnosis and intervention strategies. These advancements offer hope for altering the treatment landscape of neurodegenerative diseases through timely therapeutic interventions that could improve quality of life for patients. However, challenges remain as seen with Johnson & Johnson pausing enrollment in itsSupport the show
14 Epstein, Real Estate Flips, and Russian Ties The conversation shifts to Jeffrey Epstein's mysterious links to Russian intelligence and his real estate dealings with Trump.
