    Send a textIn this episode of Your Child Is Normal, I'm joined by pediatric physical therapist Allison Mell, founder of Tots on Target. We talk about baby motor development in a way that's both reassuring and practical — including what milestones typically look like, what matters more than the exact age, and how parents can support development at home without overthinking it (or overbuying ).We cover common reasons pediatricians refer to PT — like torticollis and head preference, tummy time struggles, late crawling, and toe walking — and Allison explains what's normal, what deserves attention, and what a pediatric PT actually does to help. We also clear up myths (including the idea that late crawling causes ADHD or autism), talk safety around walkers, and share simple, low-tech strategies that can make a real difference.If you've ever wondered, “Is this normal… and what should I do next?” this conversation will give you practical guidance on what to look for, and ideas for what you can do at home to help support your child.Show notes:Milestone ranges (& why steady progress matters more than “deadlines”)Simple ways to support motor development at home (hint: floor time beats most gear)Walkers: the important safety distinction (sit-in vs push walkers)Torticollis: what it is, what parents can look for, and why early help mattersTummy time: what “counts,”  and when to pause (reflux/pain)Late crawling: myths vs what we actually worry about Toe walking: tight muscles vs sensory seeking, and practical home ideasLightning round: shoes vs barefoot, favorite low-tech movement toys, and a message for anxious parentsTots on Target website: totsontarget.com03:24 Milestone Timelines: Rolling, Sitting, Crawling, Walking05:41 Simple At-Home Setup: Floor Time, Fewer Gadgets, Better Toys08:46 Walkers Explained11:04 Torticollis18:30 Tummy 21:53 Late Crawlers: Debunking Myths + Why Crawling Matters29:03 Toe Walking 31:56 Lightning Round: Walking Myths, Barefoot vs Shoes, Best New-Walker FootwearYour Child is Normal is the trusted podcast for parents, pediatricians, and child health experts who want smart, nuanced conversations about raising healthy, resilient kids.

    In this masterclass episode, Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS delivers an in-depth exploration of web sales optimization (CRO - conversation rate optimization) through strategic search engine marketing (SEM). The episode focuses on the critical relationship between website speed and conversion rates, revealing how technical optimization directly impacts sales performance. Favour emphasizes that web sales are fundamentally a result of web speed, explaining that websites loading slower than 3 seconds can decrease conversion rates by at least 7%, with compounding effects reaching 20% for sites taking 10 seconds to load.The discussion covers comprehensive website optimization strategies, including image optimization (recommending WebP format over JPEG/PNG), structured data implementation with schema markup, and the importance of optimizing every website element from headers and footers to file names and internal linking structures. Favour introduces the concept of treating URLs like seeds that need time to grow, recommending a 2-3 month planning horizon for content strategy.The masterclass also explores collection pages, category optimization, and the strategic use of content hubs to create pathways for user navigation. Favour shares practical tools and resources for keyword research and competitive analysis, while emphasizing the importance of submitting websites to Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools for maximum visibility. The episode concludes with actionable advice on implementing these strategies either independently or through professional SEO consultation.Book SEO Services | Quick Links for Social Business>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book SEO Services with Favour Obasi-ike⁠>> Visit Work and PLAY Entertainment website to learn about our digital marketing services>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our exclusive SEO Marketing community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> Read SEO Articles>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to the We Don't PLAY Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> Purchase Flaev Beatz Beats Online>> Favour Obasi-ike Quick Links

    Send a textAwareness about barefoot running reached a crescendo with the publication of the book Born to Run about the Tarahumara Indians in Mexico who came to run the Leadville Trail 100 in 1992 and 1994. Steven Sashen and his wife Lena started a company that produced kits that allowed buyers to assemble their own huarache-style sandals that the Tarahumaras wore. This evolved into them designing shoes for running, court sports, and other training that has become the popular brand Xero Shoes that spurned a Shark Tank offer and had sales of $48 million in 2022. Their shoes are designed with a wider toe box and a zero drop, meaning the heel is not lifted at all, allowing the foot to function more as nature intended us to move, thus strengthening the foot and reducing injuries. Steven, a one-time standup comic, entertainingly explains how the built-up shoes that are common in the footwear industry have actually created more problems to our bodies.

Including shifts in the application of varying views with regard to the writing of the text itself. How was that dispute resolved? The Gemara introduces the determinant of Eliyahu the Prophet -- in the non-mezuzah example of the halitzah shoe, and when even that determining voice would be accepted as law and when it would not: namely, as guided by the widespread practice of the Jewish people. Also, the sanctity of tefillin, mezuzot, and Torah scrolls - can tefillin parchment be "demoted" to be a mezuzah? It would seem yes, except for the requirement that the mezuzah parchment needs scoring. Plus, not sitting on a bed (couch?) that as a Sefer Torah on it.

    What you put on your feet can quietly sabotage your technique or unlock a level of performance you didn't know you had. In this episode of The MOVEMENT Movement, Steven Sashen speaks with Denis Vasilev, MA, 11x Kettlebell World Champion, IKO Master Coach & Founder, who returns to break down the overlooked performance variable most lifters ignore: footwear. A multiple-time kettlebell sport champion and elite-level competitor, Denis recently won a competition with 85 reps in 10 minutes using double 32kg in the long cycle—an internationally ranked, top-tier result, especially at age 42. He explains why traditional weightlifting shoes can mask flaws, how minimalist footwear improves feedback and consistency, and what that means for strength, efficiency, and long-set performance.   Key Takeaways: → Better sensory input from the ground helps people self-correct their technique in real time. → Heel lift and rigid structure may mask mobility and timing issues rather than fix them. → Thick, rigid. Heels reduce feedback, tempting lifters to slam rather than time the movement. → Feeling stance changes immediately allows people to correct before they compound into fatigue and wasted energy. → Toe space matters more than people realize, but if they return to narrow shoes, the restriction becomes obvious.    Denis Vasilev is a globally recognized Kettlebell Sport athlete, coach, and educator with more than 25 years of experience in the discipline. He began his Kettlebell Sport journey at age 16 in 1999 and has become one of the most decorated athletes in the sport's history. He has earned prestigious ranks, including Master of Sport International Class, and competed for the Russian National Kettlebell Sport Team from 2008 to 2015, performing at the highest professional level worldwide. Denis holds a Master's Degree in Physical Education & Sport Pedagogy from Lesgaft National State University in St. Petersburg and has been coaching athletes since 2009. He is the founder of the International Kettlebell Organization (IKO) and the Kettlebell Sport World League. Additionally, Denis is the creator of BELLEVATOR, a premium line of Kettlebell Sport belts and apparel, and continues to lead and inspire the Kettlebell Sport community worldwide.

Retro Headlines from the UK and the US help set the scene for a decade in full swing.In a deeply affectionate Dangerous Deep Dive, Dave explores the full history of The Shoe People — from its origins as illustrated children's books to its calm, distinctive animated style.

    I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Wednesday morning, the 11th of February, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start in 1 John 2:6: “He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked.” Wow, a very powerful challenge! The writer here says the preaching this world needs most are “the sermons in shoes” that are walking with Jesus Christ - sermons in shoes.Don't just tell people that Jesus loves them. The Lord says, “But show them that Jesus loves them by our actions.” We need to become Christ-like. It is no good just talking. There has got to be action. Don't tell people that Jesus loves them. Show them that Jesus loves them. Faith is a doing word. It is a verb, it's not a noun. A noun is like a table or a chair or a cupboard. Faith is an action word. So we cannot please God without faith, and he who believes must believe that He is and that He is the Rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. I think you will find that in Hebrews 11:6. To give you a practical example of what I am talking about, there is a group of men and women whom I admire greatly. They have a project called “Farming God's Way”, and they are established all over Central and Southern Africa. So they don't take food to the poorest of the poor. No, they teach the poorest of the poor how to grow food for themselves. You know the old story about if you give a person a fish, that's right, he will have enough food for one day but if you teach him how to fish, he'll be able to feed himself everyday. That is what God is looking for - practical, down to earth Christian action.Today, let us put our faith into action by walking the talk.Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day, goodbye.

    We are so excited to welcome interior designer Elizabeth Bolognino to the show! With offices in Westport, Connecticut, and South Florida, Elizabeth is known for her signature "Layered Minimalism"—a style that blends clean, contemporary lines with traditional warmth and comfort. Elizabeth joins Caroline and Liz to explain why "minimalism" doesn't have to mean cold or empty: She breaks down the psychology of beige (and why it's actually good for your brain), her "secret sauce" for making neutral rooms interesting, and why she treats rugs like the "shoes" of a room. Plus, she shares her forecast for the next big kitchen trend: the "Unfitted Kitchen." Quick Decorating Takeaways: The "Touch Test" for Budgeting: When deciding where to splurge and where to save, Elizabeth has a simple rule: If you touch it, spend the money. Invest in high-quality sofas, fabrics, and rugs because you physically interact with them. Save money on items you only look at, like curtain rods, side tables, or decorative hardware. Rugs are the "Shoes" of the Outfit: Elizabeth believes you should never design a room from the top down. She starts with the rug because it grounds the space and dictates the palette—just like you wouldn't pick your shoes last when planning an outfit. Try an "Unfitted" Kitchen: To make a kitchen feel more like a living space and less like a sterile lab, Elizabeth suggests removing upper cabinets and using furniture-style pieces. Try swapping a built-in island for a large work table or using an antique armoire for pantry storage.

    LIV Golf has finally gotten the Official World Golf Rankings they’ve been waiting for, but there’s a major catch that has many players and fans frustrated. In this week's episode of The Golf Podcast we'll break down the biggest wrinkle in golf's power struggle right now: LIV Golf finally receiving Official World Golf Ranking (OWGR) points — and the immediate backlash that followed. After LIV revamped its schedule and format to meet ranking expectations, points are now being awarded right away, but only to the top 10 finishers (and ties) in individual stroke play. That hard cutoff has sparked frustration from players like Jon Rahm, who said it “doesn't seem fair,” and from LIV CEO Scott O'Neil, who argued the policy leaves the vast majority of the field with zero points. We'll explain why OWGR categorized LIV as a “small-field” situation, why no-cut events elsewhere still earn points deeper down the leaderboard, and what this means for players chasing majors, Ryder Cup points, and long-term career opportunities. To put it into perspective, we compare real recent points totals from the PGA TOUR (Waste Management Phoenix Open), LIV's season opener in Riyadh, and the DP World Tour event Patrick Reed won, plus how LIV's winner points stack up against a PGA TOUR alternate-field event like the Puerto Rico Open.

Sophie and Benedict's story is our favorite of the Bridgerton novels for it's pacing but we're missing the angst of Lisa Kelypas' couples. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9408584-an-offer-from-a-gentleman?ref=nav_sb_ss_1_23 Similar BooksStranger In My Arms by Lisa Kleypashttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/243206.Stranger_in_My_ArmsHow the Marquess Was Won by Julie Anne Longhttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11388053-how-the-marquess-was-wonCinder by Marissa Meyerhttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/36381037-cinder?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=dk3GNqSb4V&rank=1The Sweetest Oblivion by Danielle Lorihttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/39083635-the-sweetest-oblivion?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=z8SdN5n2PC&rank=1Rose in Chains by Julie Sotohttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/221179254-rose-in-chains?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=Y4KtfYlxz7&rank=1Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levinehttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/218038285-ella-enchanted?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=m2sxMzF7ZQ&rank=1Check us out on Youtube and Patreon @notanotherheroine

    Welcome to The Education Concierge Podcast — where we disrupt the traditional, honor the journey, and build what's next in education, leadership, and life. I'm your host, Benita Gordon, guiding you through conversations that blend passion, strategy, and soul.Season 10 — A Legacy in Progress — is about shaping what we'll leave behind while living boldly in the present. This season isn't just about the "what" we achieve, but the "how" and "why" behind it.In this episode, we sit down with Iman Alleyne, CEO and Founder of Kind Academy and Launch Your Kind, a trailblazer in the micro-school movement who's taught over 50 schools how to open and operate successfully. Iman brings unflinching truth about what it takes to build alternative education models that actually work—from mastering the business fundamentals educators never learned in school to shifting mindset from employee to entrepreneur. You'll hear why "culture is the curriculum," how financial literacy can liberate educators from dread, why joy-centered environments transform learning, and why representation in educational leadership isn't just nice to have—it's non-negotiable. This conversation will challenge you to see yourself not just as an educator, but as a guide, innovator, and yes—a businessperson building the future.Shoes off. Hands washed. Mind open. Let's build together.Why micro-schools are revolutionizing education and how to build one that's financially sustainable—not just mission-drivenThe mindset shifts educators must make to transition from employee to entrepreneur without losing their soulsWhy financial literacy isn't optional for educators who want to create lasting impact and actually get paid fairly for their expertiseHow to position yourself as a guide in the learning process rather than a traditional "keeper of knowledge"The power of joy-centered education and creating spaces where students thrive, not just surviveEducation isn't just about the classroom. It's about shaping communities, influencing futures, and creating ripples that extend far beyond ourselves. Iman's journey from traditional educator to CEO and founder of both Kind Academy and Launch Your Kind proves that when we master both the mission AND the money, we create sustainable alternatives that serve marginalized communities without burning out. With over 50 schools trained in her methods, Iman is building a movement, not just a moment. This conversation will help you think differently, act boldly, and craft a legacy worth remembering.Connect with Iman Alleyne:Organizations: CEO and Founder of Kind Academy & Launch Your KindAchievement: Taught over 50 schools how to open and operate micro-schools successfullyWebsite: https://www.kindacademy.orgInstagram: @imanalleyne, @kindacademy, @launchyourkindLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.comin/iman-cassells-alleyne-744677169Connect with Benita Gordon:Follow The Education Concierge PodcastInstagram: @theeduconciergepodcastLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/Benita-C-GordonSeason 10: A Legacy in Progress themeJoin the conversation: #EducationConcierge #ALegacyInProgress

    Is Bryson DeChambeau quietly setting up his exit from LIV Golf—or playing the smartest leverage game professional golf has ever seen? In this week's episode of The Golf Podcast, we dive into the latest controversy surrounding Bryson DeChambeau and his increasingly non-committal comments about the future of LIV Golf. With reports swirling about a potential $500 million contract extension, we break down whether Bryson is genuinely frustrated with LIV's shift to 72-hole events—or strategically applying pressure as negotiations heat up. We analyze his recent quotes in full, compare his stance to players who have firmly committed to LIV like Jon Rahm, and contrast that with high-profile departures, including Brooks Koepka, who has already begun the process of returning to the PGA Tour. We’ll also explore how leverage in professional golf appears to be shifting, what LIV's long-term strategy might be, and why Bryson's YouTube success and marketability play such a massive role in his value. Finally, we pose this week's big question: if you were Bryson, would you take a half-billion-dollar LIV deal or bet on a return to the PGA Tour?   Listen to This Week’s Show Download on iTunes here Listen on Spotify here Thanks to this Week’s Sponsors Titleist is committed to ensuring that every golf ball delivers superior quality and consistency.  From ball to ball, dozen to dozen we should expect our golf ball to perform exactly the same way, shot after shot.

    In the late 2000s, two French mountain athletes set out to build a running shoe that captured the feeling of flying. Jean-Luc Diard and Nicolas “Nico” Mermoud had spent decades inside the innovation engine at Salomon—where product was obsession. In 2007, as Nico recovered from a brutal ultramarathon around Mont Blanc, the founders fixed on a problem that Big Footwear didn't care about: downhill running was destroying bodies. Their solution: make the shoe bigger, softer, and shaped like a rocker.At first, their prototypes looked like clown shoes. Runners who preferred minimalist footwear laughed at them. Retailers said no. But the founders kept doing the one thing that they knew could reverse things: they made people try them.HOKA went from under $3M in sales in 2012 to more than $2B a year—and in this episode, you'll hear how it happened: the risky design, the early cash crunch, and the strategic partnership that helped them win the U.S. market.What you'll learn:How to think of a shoe as a machine, not just a piece of apparelThe go-to-market weapon that worked: relentless demo-ing Why outside money can't always solve a cash flow bottleneck (and what does)How HOKA used performance proof to avoid being dismissed as a gimmickWhy HOKA partnered with Deckers—and why it wasn't just about capitalHow to keep a “rebel” mindset as competitors start copying youTimestamps:(Timecodes are approximate and may shift depending on platform.)[07:12] George Salomon's leadership lesson: the CEO who sought advice from an intern[11:11] Nico's first day at Salomon: testing ski prototypes on a glacier[18:42] The ultramarathon race where Nico's legs crumbled (and why)[21:29] A breakthrough insight: performance changes with surface (leaves, lava, snow)[31:25] Designing a sneaker as if it were a car: engine, tires, seat[40:00] The “clown shoe” prototype—and the first successful run [47:22] Elite runners kickstart the brand [49:02] The hard part nobody glamorizes: factory minimums, bank demands, anemic cash flow[53:31] Deckers enters: the minority investment that unlocks the U.S. (without killing the brand)Hey—want to be a guest on HIBT?If you're building a business, why not get advice from some of the greatest entrepreneurs on Earth?Every Thursday on the HIBT Advice Line, a previous HIBT guest helps new entrepreneurs work through the challenges they're facing right now.
