Why is your margin getting smaller even when sales look fine? Your revenue is growing, your ads look fine, and orders keep coming in. So why does it feel harder to make money than it used to? This episode explains why margins shrink as platforms mature and how sellers get caught off guard.In this Week in Review, Neil explains how platform maturity removes early incentives, raises costs, and quietly compresses margins long before dashboards turn red.Using TikTok Shop changes, EU policy updates, and platform maturity patterns, we'll hear why margins shrink under the surface and how operators plan ahead. If you depend on one platform, this episode shows what to watch before 2026.

Health care options are shrinking across rural Appalachia. In November, an urgent care center in rural Patrick County, Virginia closed. In the wake of the closure, Inside Appalachia's Mason Adams went to Stuart, Virginia, to meet with the county's only doctor. The post How Health Care Options Are Shrinking Across Appalachia, This West Virginia Morning appeared first on West Virginia Public Broadcasting.

We are accustomed to the idea of growth. We love it when the wind is at our back and progress is effortless. We have experienced a lifetime of growth. If a growing market is an underlying assumption, then most people are unaware that they are operating with the assumption of growth. Growth becomes a law of nature, a little like gravity. What would change in your strategy if you needed to win in a shrinking market? Canada experienced the first major drop in population this past quarter. Outside of a slight drop during the height of the pandemic, this quarter is the first time that Canada's population has declined in at least the past eight decades. The trend is not limited to Canada. The US administration has set much more stringent immigration policies over the past year. The policies continue to evolve with citizens from a total of 39 countries now barred from entering the US, even as visitors. This is largely a reaction to the near open-doors policy of the previous administration. The US and Canada are not a strangers to shrinking population. Internal migration has caused population to shrink. The gains in the sunbelt have been at the expense of loss in the rust belt. Detroit has lost more than 50% of its population since the 1970's. Cleveland has lost 60% of its population since the 1950's. Immigration is the pathway to maintaining population and to maintaining economic growth. I'm hopeful that these reductions are a short term reaction to periods of excessive growth and that both countries the US and Canada return to a more normalized immigration policy that recognizes the significant necessity and long term benefit that comes from a functioning immigration policy. -----------Real Estate Espresso Podcast:  Spotify: The Real Estate Espresso Podcast Website: www.victorjm.com LinkedIn: Victor Menasce YouTube: The Real Estate Espresso Podcast Facebook: www.facebook.com/realestateespresso Email: podcast@victorjm.comY Street Capital:  Website: www.ystreetcapital.com Facebook: www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital Instagram: @ystreetcapital

Life can quietly shift into maintenance mode. Responsibilities pile up, energy drops, and days become about getting through instead of moving forward. Survival starts to feel normal, even when fulfillment fades. Over time, coping replaces creating, confidence softens, and direction blurs. Awareness becomes the turning point that helps energy return, choices feel intentional again, and growth begin to replace exhaustion without pressure or burnout.

Claudia Sulewski is the founder of Cyklar, a new bodycare brand that bridges the gap between luxurious self-care and efficacious formulas. Before becoming a beauty founder, Sulewski was one of the original beauty YouTubers. She started her YouTube channel when she was just 13 years old, under the name BeyondBeautyStar, posting makeup tutorials, vlogs, and other lifestyle content. By the time she graduated high school, she'd grown a massive following that allowed her to monetize her content as an official YouTube partner and make her hobby her full-time job. Claudia's status as an internet sensation reached new heights when Teen Vogue tapped her to host the publication's YouTube channel as a red carpet correspondent. Her years of experience shooting and editing her own content and using herself as talent for her creative vision were also crucial when she expanded into traditional acting and directing. She's gone on to lead a successful career on and off camera since getting her start on YouTube, booking roles for hit shows like Shrinking and directing music videos for her fiancè, Grammy Award–winning artist Finneas O'Connell. Her career has now come full circle with Cyklar after years of filming GRWM videos and self-care routines for her millions of loyal followers.

This is episode number 202 and you're listening to Soultime, a show that explores the world of unlocking your unique potential. My name is Dr. Katja Makowka, and I'm a teacher at school, a former teacher at universities, and a stress and mental coach, and I'm your host.Today, we're diving into something so many of us do without even realizing it: shrinking ourselves to fit the noise around us. You know the feeling - when you hold back your thoughts, soften your words, dim your energy, or avoid sharing your ideas just to keep the peace, fit in, or avoid conflict. It feels safe, right? Until it doesn't. The truth is, every time you shrink, you give your power away to the noise - the opinions, judgments, expectations, and chaos of the world around you. And over time, that quiet compliance builds up, leaving you drained, frustrated, and disconnected from the person you truly are.In this episode, we're going to explore why this shrinking happens, how it silently shapes your life, and what it feels like to finally stop bending to the noise. Because when you stop shrinking, something magical happens: you reclaim your energy, your clarity, and your freedom.Follow me on instagram for more inspiring, motivational and uplifting content.

Two Conservative MPs defected to the Liberals and a third announced his resignation in the months leading up to Pierre Poilievre's leadership review in January. Ontario Conservative MP Adam Chambers tells Power & Politics that 'many people' still support Poilievre after the second floor-crossing. But interim NDP Leader Don Davies tells host David Cochrane that 'if I were Mr. Poilievre, I'd be deeply concerned.'

In this episode of Be Truly Heard, coach and voice expert Anne Leatherland explores the subtle ways women “shrink” their voices, speaking more softly, holding back in meetings, choosing minimising language – and how that quietly erodes impact at work. She unpacks where this habit comes from (early conditioning, gender expectations, fear of being judged), then shares practical mindset, body and visualisation tools to help you take up more vocal space without needing to be loud or “pushy”.She walks you through noticing when you retreat, experimenting with speaking earlier in “low-stakes” situations, shifting the thoughts that sit behind your sound, and using simple visualisations to retrain your nervous system so that being heard feels safe, not scary. The episode is a reminder that while shrinking may once have felt like self-protection, it no longer serves you if you want to be remembered, respected, and truly heard in business.Key TakeawaysShrinking shows up in your body and your sound. Rounded shoulders, shallow breath and small posture lead to a quieter, tentative voice that makes it easier for others to overlook you.Awareness is the first step to change. Start noticing when you lower your volume, delay speaking, or soften ideas with words like “just” and “sorry”; jot patterns down for a week.Practise speaking sooner in “low-stakes” spaces. In your next meeting or call, aim to contribute early with something simple like, “I'd like to add to that point,” to build the “muscle” of showing up.Use your body to signal ‘I belong here'. Before you speak, roll your shoulders back, gently lift your chest and feel your feet on the floor; your voice will usually sound clearer and steadier.Change the thought, change the voice. Catch inner scripts like “What if I'm wrong?” and reframe them into “My point of view adds value” or “I'm sharing something important,” then repeat until they feel believable.Best Moments“When your voice shrinks, so does your impact.”“Shrinking isn't just metaphorical; your body contracts, your breath becomes shallow and your voice can feel trapped.”“Staying silent rarely serves us in business.”“Changing the habit means changing the thought – the voice follows the mind.”“Shrinking may once have felt safe, but it no longer serves you if you want to be truly heard.”About the hostWith over 28 years' voice-teaching experience, Anne Leatherland helps clients progress quickly and achieve goals with confidence. Bridging science, education and the performing arts, she is a science graduate, qualified teacher and singing teacher with advanced training in voice practice, vocal habilitation and life coaching. As the only Vocal Process Associate Trainer, Anne mentors and trains other voice teachers. Her holistic, collaborative approach nurtures every aspect of the voice alongside personal growth.Find out more: ​​https://anneleatherland.co.uk/

Restoring a 250-year-old farmhouse isn't just a renovation project. It's a blueprint for modern marketing.That's the lesson from Jean-Christophe Pitié, Chief Marketing and Chief Partner Officer at Contentsquare, who's spent the last five years bringing new life to a centuries-old home outside Paris. In this episode, we break down the marketing lessons hidden in his restoration journey.Together, we explore what B2B marketers can learn from blending heritage with innovation, finding creativity in constraints, and designing connected experiences where every touchpoint matters.About our guest, Jean-Christophe PitiéWith 20+ years of experience in international marketing and partner engagement, Jean-Christophe is committed to supporting companies of all sizes in their digital transformation. Passionate about technology and retail, he spent two decades at Microsoft, where he had the opportunity to contribute to the cloud transformation and to launch Microsoft 365 as well as leading Microsoft Stores. Today, as Chief Marketing and Partnerships Officer at Contentsquare, Jean-Christophe's main mission is to drive customer demand in markets around the world, continue to grow our rich partner ecosystem, and bring holistic customer experience insights to more teams worldwide.What B2B Companies Can Learn From the restoration of a French farmhouse:Honor your legacy while modernizing for today. Great brands, like great houses, balance tradition and innovation. Jean-Christophe explains, “I had architects who came initially, and they wanted to put glass everywhere, tear down some big stone walls, and I'm like, guys, this house has had oak beams for 250 years. I'm not gonna tear them down. I'm gonna keep them.” In B2B, the same logic applies. Your legacy, your history, and your customer trust are part of your brand's foundation. Don't tear them down for the sake of what's trendy. Blend your legacy with fresh, modern layers such as new tech, new storytelling, and new energy, without losing what made your brand distinct. That balance between the old and the new is what gives it lasting beauty and credibility.Constraints fuel creativity. Jean-Christophe says, “Sometimes the best projects come when… you have a constraint… either a location constraint or timing or budget, you get very creative to work around the constraints.” His farmhouse's three-foot-thick stone walls forced him to rethink how to add modern features, and that challenge sparked originality. In B2B, the same holds true. Limited budget? Shrinking timelines? Regulatory hurdles? These are the sparks for inventive ideas. Don't let your constraints kill creativity; let them focus it.Every touchpoint shapes the experience. When restoring a house, you have to look at the whole picture; every room, material, and detail needs to connect. Jean-Christophe shared, “It's a bit like your marketing strategy. You need to connect across channels… every touchpoint matters.” Just like a home's design must flow seamlessly from one room to the next, so should your brand experience, across your website, content, product, and sales. Inconsistent moments break trust. When every touchpoint feels connected and intentional, you turn friction into flow, and customers into believers.Quote“History is part of who we are, human beings… It's beautiful… It's like a brand. When you think about brand, you want something that's unique, differentiated, [and] people can relate to, which is so beautiful.”Time Stamps[00:55] Meet Jean-Christophe Pitié, Chief Marketing and Chief Partner Officer at Contentsquare[01:04] Jean-Christophe's French Farmhouse Restoration Project[04:38] Balancing Tradition and Innovation in Restoration Projects[13:56] Creative Solutions and Constraints in Restoration[21:30] Importance of Legacy[26:51] B2B Marketing Lessons from Restoring a French Farmhouse[38:30] Innovations at Content Square[43:33] Advice for CMOs on Investing in Brand[45:45] Final Thoughts and TakeawaysLinksConnect with Jean-Christophe on LinkedInLearn more about ContentsquareAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

Sales conversations feel vulnerable. Raw. Exposed.It's not your certifications or your follower count or the fact that you don't have the “perfect” line to say.It's that somewhere along the way, you started performing.Polishing yourself. Shrinking your edges. Trying to sound like the “ideal doula” instead of the real you.And polished? Polished doesn't convert.In this episode, we're throwing out the performative BS and getting back to what actually books clients:✨ Your presence ✨ Your intuition ✨ Your human-to-human connection ✨ Your ability to hold emotional space—not just in labor, but on the consult tooI'm breaking down:

This is a fan fav episode. Hey everyone, it's your girl Lisa Bilyeu, and welcome back to another heart-shaking, soul-quaking episode of "Women of Impact." Today, I have the absolute pleasure of bringing back one of my all-time favorite guests, a woman who has not only impacted my life but countless others with her raw, unfiltered honesty and boundless wisdom—the incredible Lisa Nichols. In this episode, Lisa Nichols is bringing the heat and the heart as she takes us on a deeply personal journey through her emotional struggles and the path to rediscovering herself. Imagine battling through toxic relationships, facing the depths of clinical depression, and constantly wrestling with societal pressures that try to tell you who you should be—Lisa has been there, and she's lived to tell the tale in the most empowering way. She opens up about the courageous steps she took to reclaim her life, including relocating to escape a toxic situation and creating practices to rebuild her self-worth.

In this second episode of the December Rich Woman Reset Series, Karen offers something high-achieving women rarely receive — a genuine permission slip to stop shrinking.   If you've spent years being the strong one, the caretaker, or the emotional anchor for everyone else, visibility might feel indulgent or "too much." But here's the truth: Visibility is not indulgent. Visibility is financial protection, leadership, and sovereignty.   In this short, powerful reset, Karen explores: • Why brilliant women stay small even after decades of success • How your visibility expands only after your identity expands • A reflective prompt to tap into your wealthy-woman identity • One small visibility move that can change your entire trajectory • Why slowing down your hustle helps you rise higher   You'll walk away feeling grounded, confident, and ready to take up more space — without pushing, performing, or proving. If any part of you is whispering "I'm ready for more," this episode is your nudge forward.

This time on Code WACK! We're digging into big questions: Are reduced health insurance subsidies leaving Americans with a bad case of sticker shock? If you're shopping on the ACA marketplace, what should you watch out for before picking a plan? And what happens if you're pre-authorized for treatment in 2025, but can't afford to renew with the same plan in 2026? (It's not pretty.) For these answers and more, we talked to Sherry Davis Johnson — a former nurse turned long–time insurance agent in Southern California. Sherry has seen our challenging healthcare system from every angle, as a nurse and home health provider, insurance agent, and patient, having personally gone through five major surgeries in just two years.

Flute 360 | Episode 352: "Stop Shrinking—How to Take Up Healthy Artistic Space as a Musician" If you've ever felt yourself shrinking—apologizing for your sound, playing small in rehearsal, or holding back your musical voice—this episode is for you. Today, we explore why so many musicians collapse inward (mentally, emotionally, and physically) and how to reclaim the healthy artistic space you were designed to inhabit. Across all ages and stages—middle schoolers, college musicians, adult hobbyists, professionals—this pattern appears: talented artists who know what they're capable of internally but feel unable to express it externally. In this conversation, I walk you through the deeper causes behind shrinking behavior and how past comments, environments, or relationships may have taught you to retreat rather than rise. We talk about understanding your worth, advocating for yourself, releasing toxic narratives, and learning to stand in a posture—physically and emotionally—that supports confident, resonant playing. This work is not just about tone or technique; it's about identity, healing, and showing up with presence and intention in your artistry. This episode invites you to notice where you've made yourself small, question the origins of those patterns, and begin stepping forward with courage, clarity, and joy. What We Discuss: Why musicians across all ages tend to shrink in certain environments How authority figures and educational settings shape artistic confidence The difference between healthy respect and unhealthy silence Physical collapse vs. mental retreat, and how the body reveals fear How past comments and old narratives get stored in the lungs and breath Why embodied confidence is essential for expressive, resonant playing How reclaiming artistic space restores joy in practicing and performing A framework for identifying where and why you're minimizing yourself Ways to release old stories so your authentic musical voice can emerge Main Takeaway: You are designed to take up healthy artistic space. When you stand in your God-given identity—emotionally, physically, spiritually—your artistry expands. Your breath frees. Your sound opens. Your presence shifts. And the music you share becomes a reflection of the truth of who you are, not who past voices told you to be.

Don and Tom run through a Wall Street Journal list of “subtle signs it might be time to retire,” reacting to each one with their usual mix of disbelief, personal anecdotes, and gentle ribbing. The episode wanders into tech reluctance, job promotions nobody wants, Sunday dread, obsessive 401(k) checking, volunteering guilt, missing peers, feeling left out of friends' retirements, boss-related misery, and aging knees. They also answer listener questions about Schwab Intelligent Portfolios and their high cash allocations, discuss the shrinking role of physical cash, explain the real value of pre-1964 silver quarters, and handle calls on Social Security math.

Mickey Osterreicher of NPPA Discusses Photojournalism in the Modern Era: Legal Rights, AI Challenges, and How to Protect Your Work The 10 Frames Per Second podcast episode featuring Mickey Osterreicher, General Counsel for the National Press Photographers Association (NPPA), uncovers the toughest challenges facing today's visual journalists: Shrinking newsrooms & the rise of freelancers Legal battles over copyright, AI‑generated images, and fair use Police confrontations, arrests, and deportations of journalists The vital role of the NPPA in advocacy and education If you're a photojournalist, visual storyteller, or anyone who relies on images to inform the public, the insights from this episode are essential reading. A past guest on 10FPS (Episode 20) Mickey's career arc illustrates how photojournalism and law intersect: Phase Highlights Early Years Started with a 35 mm camera in college, photo‑edited the school newspaper, then worked for the Buffalo Courier‑Express (10 years). TV Transition Moved to WKBW‑TV, covered sports, and realized visual storytelling mattered more than column space. Law School Inspired by covering the Attica prison uprising and escorting attorneys William Kunstler & Ramsey Clark, he enrolled in law school while still working nights at the TV station. NPPA Legal Counsel Joined the NPPA in the early 1970s, later became its volunteer legal counsel, handling copyright, First Amendment, and police‑training issues. Key takeaway: A solid legal background can turn a photojournalist into an advocate for the entire visual‑journalism community. The State of the NPPA Why the NPPA Is Still Critical Founded 1946 – the “voice of visual journalists.” Membership shift: From staff photographers at newspapers/TV to freelancers & independent contractors. Financial pressure: Dues are modest, but staff salaries have been cut; board members now perform many staff functions pro‑bono. Advocacy priorities: Protect First Amendment rights. Provide legal training for journalists and law‑enforcement agencies. Fight AI‑related copyright infringement. NPPA's Current Initiatives Legal hotline – direct access to counsel for members. First‑Amendment training – delivered to police departments nationwide (e.g., Minnesota, Chicago). Copyright small‑claims court – a low‑cost venue for photographers to enforce their rights. Writing with Light (WwL) Coalition – developing standards for image provenance and authenticity. First Amendment & Police Encounters: What Every Visual Journalist Should Know 1. Know Your Rights Public spaces: You have the right to photograph and record, subject only to reasonable time, place, and manner restrictions. “Indicia” of journalist status: Press credentials, professional gear, and a clear “press” identifier help officers recognize you as a journalist. 2. Prepare Before You Go Contact local police ahead of time to introduce yourself. Work in pairs or a small team—the “buddy system” improves safety and documentation. Carry a written list of emergency contacts (phone numbers inked on your arm or stored offline). 3. If You're Detained Step Action Stay calm Do not resist; comply with lawful orders. Identify yourself Show press credentials, explain you're exercising First Amendment rights. Document the encounter Keep an audio/video record if safe to do so. Call the NP hotline (or the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press at 800‑336‑4243) as soon as possible. Notify a trusted contact (family, lawyer, editor). Ask for a copy of the arrest report and any charges filed. AI & Generative Images: The New Copyright Battlefield Why AI Threatens Photojournalism AI‑generated images can be indistinguishable from reality (e.g., deepfakes, synthetic disasters). Massive ingestion of photographers' work to train AI models, often without permission or compensation. Legal Landscape (U.S. Focus) Copyright registration is required before you can sue for infringement. Statutory damages: Up to $150,000 per image for willful infringement (as illustrated by the Daniel Morrel case). Fair‑use defense is fact‑intensive; courts evaluate purpose, nature, amount used, and market effect. Practical AI Safeguards Register every image you intend to license (or that has high news value). Add a visible watermark or embed metadata indicating ownership. Use tools from Adobe's Content Authenticity Initiative (CAI) to embed provenance data. Monitor platforms for unauthorized use; send a cease‑and‑desist using NPPA's model letters (available on their website). Practical Steps to Safeguard Your Images {#practical-steps-to-safeguard-your-images} Register Your Work File a registration with the U.S. Copyright Office within 90 days of first publication to get retroactive protection. Maintain a Documentation Log Date, location, equipment, and a brief description for each shoot. Store original RAW files in an offline, encrypted backup. Use Model Release & License Agreements Clearly outline permitted uses, fee structures, and attribution requirements. Leverage NPPA Resources Model cease‑and‑desist letters – copy, personalize, and send. Small‑claims court filing kit – for disputes under $10 k, no attorney needed. Educate Your Audience Publish a short note on your site about image authenticity (e.g., “This photo was captured on location with a Sony A7R IV; not AI‑generated”).

Some people hit walls that should have taken them out. Today's guest, Ernie G, built staircases out of his. If you have ever felt behind, broken, late to the party, or unsure of what you are capable of, this one will hit you straight in the heart.In this episode of Amiga Handle Your Shit, Jackie sits down with empowerment comedian and speaker Ernie G, a man who has spent decades transforming audiences with a mix of humor, heart, and radical self-belief. On stage, he is funny. In community, he is powerful. In life, he is a walking reminder that reinvention is real and joy is medicine.But what makes Ernie's story different is not the familiar arc of struggle to success.

But by using every part of it as proof of capacity.Raised by a single mother. Kicked out of college. Lost. Depressed. And later, years into a successful speaking career, he survived a cardiac arrest while performing on stage. He should not be here. But he is. And he is louder, clearer, and more committed than ever to the message that saved him.Tune in to episode 258 of Amiga, Handle Your Shit, if you are ready to stop waiting, stop assuming joy belongs to someone else, and rise into your own capacity.Episode Takeaways:The early story he once hid, and how owning it became medicine for others (05:20)The unexpected moment that revealed his natural gift for moving people with words (08:40)The discovery that shifted everything: “If it is to be, it is up to me” (11:20)The birth of empowerment comedy and how he essentially invented the lane he now leads (15:40)Why action creates clarity and why waiting for perfect conditions keeps us stuck (18:00)The near-fatal cardiac arrest that forced him to rewrite how he cared for himself (20:50)The lesson he teaches now: happiness is not a luxury, it is service (25:00)How he finally attracted real partnership by turning inward instead of outward (27:20)Why the conversations in our heads are either hurting us or healing us (34:10)What to do when you cannot figure out your path: follow what sets your soul on fire (36:00)Connect with Ernie G:WebsiteInstagramXFacebookLet's Connect!WebsiteFacebookInstagramLinkedInJackie Tapia Arbonne's websiteBook: The AMIGA Way: Release Cultural Limiting Beliefs to Transform Your Life Hosted on Acast.

ew reports dredge up the chaos of Andrew and Sarah Ferguson's early marriage — including claims Andrew saw more than a dozen women in year one, while Sarah and John Bryan allegedly carried on after-hours at Sunninghill Park. Freshly exposed emails show a journalist telling Jeffrey Epstein that Andrew “had consensual sex with [redacted],” a phrasing Epstein did not challenge.Meanwhile, palace insiders say Andrew is still living like nothing has changed: riding horses at Windsor, demanding silver-service dinners, crates of champagne for dwindling friends, and a full staff — all while the King and Waleses fume. He's ignored a request from U.S. lawmakers to testify, is reportedly considering selling off personal memorabilia for cash, and remains furious over his daughters' lost security. As one insider put it: “His world has collapsed, but he's still acting like the man of the manor.”Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.
