Hey Heal Squad! We're kicking off the week with a little girl talk, a lot of laughs, and with a special guest, Tori Deal! Maria and Tori are both in the middle of closet cleanouts (yes, rage cleaning included!) and share their favorite organization hacks, simple systems that actually work, and why cleaning your space is really about clearing your mind. From Amazon finds to fall wardrobe swaps, they share easy, practical ways to make your home (and your head) feel a little lighter. But it's not just about the closets…they also get into body changes, self-acceptance, and the emotional weight of clutter, reminding us that letting go of “stuff” is often the first step in creating space for peace. They also dive into the joy of simplifying life, celebrating seasonal traditions, and reconnecting with who you really are beyond all the busyness. Whether you're in the middle of your own cleanout or just craving a little clarity to kick off the week, this one's for you! -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/ Briotech: https://shopbriotech.com/ Use Code: HEALSQUAD for 20% off Join In-Person Heal Retreat Waitlist! https://mariamenounos.myflodesk.com/heal-retreat-waitlist GUEST RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tori_deal/ The Soul Spill: http://www.thesoulspill.com Kid's Book: https://shop.torideal.com/products/the-adventures-of-bumble-pea-and-koala-pear-the-search-for-syrup ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Good Friction vs Bad Friction in B2B Marketing: Stop Wasting Buyer EffortToo many teams removed every barrier and called it “buyer-first.” The result? Leaky funnels, vanity MQLs, and zero commercial insight. In this episode, we show how to use good friction to earn trust, capture context, and actually help buyers make better decisions (without annoying them).We (George Coudounaris & Kevin Chen) break down where friction belongs in your buyer journey, when gating makes sense, and how to turn forms, events, and content into useful market intel. We also dig into progressive profiling and cataloguing so Sales get timing, permission, and real-world context they can act on.We'll show standout moments like: why you should stop gating case studies, how to design “good friction” for community signups and workshops, and a simple green-yellow-red scoring method to fix bad friction fast.Tune in and learn:+ The difference between good vs bad friction (and how to spot each)+ When to gate (community, events, newsletters) and when not to (case studies)+ How to use progressive profiling to “catalogue” vendors, renewal dates, and permission to follow upIf you're a small B2B team, this episode is a must-watch. You'll walk away with a friction map you can fix this week, a scoring system to prioritise changes, and a smarter way to feed Sales with timing-based insights.-----------------------------------------------------

The idea that exposing kids to enriching literacy and play-based experiences will effectively teach them to read and write sounds nice on paper.Unfortunately, it's not in-line with the large and growing body of evidence that suggests that kids need direct, explicit instruction to learn to read, write, and spell. Sure, a select group of fortunate students will learn to read and write implicitly through exposure alone. But curricular decisions shouldn't be based on what benefits a small percentage of their student population. That's why in this episode, I share a clip and my commentary on my interview with Dr. Pamela Snow. Pamela Snow is a Professor of Cognitive Psychology in the School of Education at the Bendigo campus of La Trobe University, Australia. She is also Co-Director of the Science of Language and Reading (SOLAR) Lab. Pamela is a registered psychologist, having qualified originally in speech-language pathology and has taught a wide range of undergraduate and postgraduate education and health professionals. Her research has been funded by nationally competitive schemes such as the ARC Discovery Program, ARC Linkage Program, and the Criminology Research Council, and concerns the role of language and literacy skills as academic and mental health protective factors in childhood and adolescence. She has conducted research on the profiles and needs of high-risk groups such as youth offenders, children and adolescents in the state care system and flexible education systems, as well as research advancing evidence in the language-to-literacy transition in the early years of school. In this conversation, we discuss the need for nuance as it pertains to practices such as play-based instruction and project-based learning, and why these methods should be used in conjunction with direct reading instruction, not instead of. Dr. Snow also explains the difference between biologically primary and biologically secondary skills, and why this distinction matters when it comes to literacy instruction.Discussion points from this episode:✅ Play-based learning vs. early reading instruction: Why they aren't in opposition.✅ Using explicit instruction to build skills needed for problem-solving and successful project-based learning.✅ Whose job is it to work on reading? How much is the responsibility of the schools, and what is the parent's job?You can listen to my original interview with Dr. Snow on the De Facto Leaders podcast here: EP 158: Literacy and background knowledge: Essential skills for life (with Dr. Pamela Snow) Link here: https://drkarendudekbrannan.com/ep-158-literacy-and-background-knowledge-essential-skills-for-life-with-dr-pamela-snow/You can connect with Dr. Snow on X (formerly Twitter) @pamelasnow2 (https://twitter.com/PamelaSnow2) or on her blog at: http://pamelasnow.blogspot.com/You can also learn more about her work on her La Trobe University page at: https://scholars.latrobe.edu.au/pcsnowYou can learn more about the Science of Language and Reading (SOLAR) lab at: https://www.latrobe.edu.au/school-education/about/spotlightIn this episode, I mention Language Therapy Advance Foundations, my program that helps SLPs and other service providers create a system for language therapy.

In this episode, I share the empowering concept of “test and find out”—a practical approach I use to overcome analysis paralysis and move beyond indecision. I'll walk you through how setting time-bound parameters allows you to make confident choices, let go of perfectionism, and reduce the pressure of getting it “right.”You'll hear real stories from my own life and my work with clients, as I show how experimenting with routines, habits, and even big decisions has brought more clarity and confidence. I encourage you to give yourself permission to try new things, knowing that nothing is permanent—and that it's okay to observe what works and what doesn't without judgment.Ready to break free from indecision?

In this episode, The Annuity Man discussed: Planning spousal income with precision Avoiding risky annuity strategies Building protection through legal planning Resisting sales pressure and complexity Key Takeaways: Secure your spouse's future by designing an intentional plan, not by guessing or rushing into annuities. Reverse engineer the exact income amount they will need, and let legal mechanisms trigger it at the right time. Precision brings peace of mind. Never buy annuities based on fear of death or timing. Emotional decisions lead to inflexibility and regret. Smart financial planning means keeping control until the moment it truly matters. Work with estate planning lawyers to structure income that activates when needed. Trusts can ensure seamless transitions and guaranteed income after death. Legal planning replaces guesswork with confidence. Ignore flashy pitches and confusing riders that promise more than they deliver. Financial security is built on clarity, not complexity. Simplify, stay flexible, and only commit when you understand every detail.

In this episode of Transformative Principal, Brandon Cardet-Hernandez shares his journey from being a principal to advising the NYC Mayor, and now serving as President of Mrs. Wordsmith, a company dedicated to improving children's literacy through innovative tools like books and video games. Brandon dives into the urgent need for solutions in education, particularly addressing the missed "dosage" in phonemic awareness, phonics, and vocabulary instruction that many students experience. He explores the role of video games in education, emphasizing that while games can't replace teachers, they can enhance the learning process through engaging, spaced-repetition techniques, like the popular game Word Tag.Brandon discusses how joy and mastery of language can transform a student's understanding and emotional connection to words. He also highlights the challenges many students face in developing strong reading skills, especially in middle and high school, and how increasing practice time is essential.Leaving the principalship to do advising to NYC Mayor.

Ever hit 5:00 pm and suddenly realize… you have no idea what's for dinner?
Ever feel like your business is running YOU instead of the other way around? Like no matter how much revenue you bring in, it never feels like enough—because behind the scenes, things are messy, margins are thin, and burnout is creeping in? Yeah, I've been there… and so has today's guest.In this episode of the Happy Hustle Podcast, I'm hanging with Jeremy Reeves—founder of Scale Advisors, the dude who's generated nearly $200 million in revenue for himself and his clients. He's built and sold a multi-million dollar company, served as CEO of an 8-figure portfolio with 100+ employees across 7 businesses, and crafted at least five different 8-figure offers. Safe to say, the man knows his stuff when it comes to scaling.But here's what I love about Jeremy—he's not about building a big shiny revenue number just to impress people. In fact, he says the word “revenue” should be banished from our vocabulary. Why? Because entrepreneurs have been sold a lie that top-line revenue is the holy grail, when in reality it's about profit, peace of mind, and freedom. That's where he comes in—helping high-integrity entrepreneurs engineer scalable profit models without the chaos or complexity that's killing most businesses today.We jammed on so many truth bombs in this conversation. Jeremy broke down the 5 economic levers that control every dollar in your business (spoiler: it's not about hacking your way to more sales). He shared why most entrepreneurs hit an invisible wall that has nothing to do with marketing, and how to spot the ONE domino in your business that knocks down every other problem when you fix it.One of my favorite parts? Jeremy's perspective on working half the time and getting double the results. As someone who's all about systematically harmonizing ambition with well-being, this resonated hard. Because let's face it—what's the point of hustlin' if you're not Happy Hustlin'?Here are a few key takeaways from the episode:Stop obsessing over revenue. Profit and sustainability beat vanity metrics every time.Leverage the 5 economic drivers to maximize margins and growth.Every business has a “domino problem”—find it, fix it, and everything else gets easier.Work smarter, not harder. More hours ≠ more results.Simplify to scale. Complexity kills momentum; clarity fuels it.At the end of the day, Jeremy reminds us that building an empire doesn't have to mean burning out. You can engineer a business model that's scalable, profitable, and still gives you space for family, freedom, and fun.If you're ready to ditch the chaos, stop glorifying revenue, and start building a business that actually serves your life (not the other way around), then you've got to tune into this one.What does Happy Hustlin mean to you?Jeremy says to live life the way that you want to live it. Whatever that is for you, know? Yeah, just live it how you want to live it. Do it your way, man. You get one, you know, and even if you believe in reincarnation, you only remember one. So, yeah, man. Do it how you want it.Connect with Jeremyhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jeremyreeves/Find Jeremy on these websites:www.scaleadvisors.comhttps://www.jeremyreeves.com/ Connect with Cary!https://www.instagram.com/caryjack/https://www.facebook.com/SirCaryJackhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/cary-jack-kendzior/https://twitter.com/thehappyhustlehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFDNsD59tLxv2JfEuSsNMOQ/featured Get a free copy of his new book, The Happy Hustle, 10 Alignments to Avoid Burnout & Achieve Blissful Balance https://www.thehappyhustle.com/bookSign up for The Journey: 10 Days To Become a Happy Hustler Online Coursehttps://thehappyhustle.com/thejourney/Apply to the Montana Mastermind Epic Camping Adventurehttps://thehappyhustle.com/mastermind/“It's time to Happy Hustle, a blissfully balanced life you love, full of passion, purpose, and positive impact!”Episode Sponsors:If you're feeling stressed, not sleeping great, or your energy's been kinda meh lately—let me put you on to something that's been a total game-changer for me: Magnesium Breakthrough by BiOptimizers.
