This week's episode is a sweet, simple reminder of how small changes can make a home feel more like you. Laurie and I began in her kitchen, at the long window seat that greets you the moment you enter from the back door. Even with its beautiful view, it felt unfinished to her—like it wasn't yet saying, We live here. As we talked, I encouraged her to trust the instincts she already had: using her own textiles, adding a little color, choosing organic patterns, and even hanging plants to bring some life into the space. We moved through the nearby rooms too, touching on lighting challenges and the beginnings of a gallery wall. In the end, every question circled back to the same truth: her home just needed more of her, and she already knew exactly how to make that happen. Want to finally define your style?

"Creating safe spaces for people to talk about money is one of the most powerful things we can do right now to make the world better for change." -Meg Wheeler Our hosts Stephanie McCullough and Kevin Gaines sit down with Meg Wheeler, CPA and founder of the Equitable Money Project, who's on a mission to demolish the shame surrounding money conversations through accessible financial education. Her approach shows us that the path to financial confidence isn't about becoming an expert. It's about learning to simply talk about money without judgment. "Why should we know this when we've never been taught it in school?" Meg challenges the pervasive shame many people feel about their financial knowledge gaps. After all, we don't feel ashamed about not knowing brain surgery or environmental science because we were never taught those subjects either! The real problem isn't lack of knowledge, but the absence of safe spaces to discuss money openly. Meg's work centers on creating a community where people can share their financial stories without fear. She emphasizes that most people's situations aren't unique. Whether it's medical debt from our broken healthcare system or struggling with inconsistent business income, the factors contributing to financial challenges are systemic rather than personal failures. She suggests going for incremental progress rather than perfection. "Every quarter we want you to pick just one thing within one of those buckets to focus on," she explains, referring to her three-pillar framework: set up foundations, stabilize, and grow. This approach makes wealth-building feel achievable rather than overwhelming. Perhaps most powerfully, Meg advocates for teaching children about money early. Her eight-year-old has a debit card and checks his bank balance before purchases. Not because he's learning to become a financial professional, but because money should not be feared but normalized. Financial empowerment begins not with expertise, but with conversation, community, and compassion toward ourselves and others navigating the same challenges.   Key Topics ●      Meg's Path to Financial Education (02:26) ●      The Problem with "Financial Literacy" (04:28) ●      Why We Feel Shame About Money (05:21) ●      Information vs. Quality Education (05:56) ●      Creating Safe Spaces for Money Talk (14:07) ●      Teaching Kids About Money (16:13) ●      Learning the Language of Money (17:43) ●      The Three Pillars of Wealth Building (25:51) ●      Overcoming Emergency Fund Shame (26:54) ●      Business Owner Tips and Avoidance (33:00)   Resources: Equitable Money Project website   If you like what you've been hearing, we invite you to subscribe on your favorite platform and leave us a review.

Sara Di Gregorio: When Teams Lose Trust—How Scrum Masters Rebuild It One Small Change at a Time Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes.   "I continue to approach this situation with openness, positivity, and trust, because I truly believe that even the smallest changes can make a difference over time." - Sara Di Gregorio   Sara faced one of the most challenging situations a Scrum Master can encounter—a team member who had lost all trust in change, creating a negative atmosphere that weighed heavily on the entire team. She remembers the heaviness on her shoulders, feeling personally responsible for the team's wellbeing. The negativity was palpable during every meeting, and it threatened to undermine the team's progress.  But Sara refused to give up. She started experimenting with different approaches: one-to-one conversations to understand what was happening, bringing intentional energy to meetings, and trying new facilitation techniques in retrospectives. She added personal check-ins, asking "How are you today?" at the start of stand-ups, consciously bringing positive energy even on days when she didn't feel it herself.  She discovered that listening—truly listening, not just hearing—means understanding how people feel, not just what they're saying. Sara learned that the energy you bring to interactions matters deeply. Starting the day with genuine interest, asking about the team's wellbeing, and even making small comments about the weather could create tiny shifts—a small smile that signaled something had changed.  Her approach was rooted in persistence and belief: she continued approaching the situation with openness, positivity, and trust, knowing that even the smallest changes can make a difference over time. For Sara, reestablishing a good environment wasn't about quick fixes—it was about showing up every day with the right energy and never giving up on her team.   Self-reflection Question: What energy are you bringing to your interactions with the team today, and how might that be shaping the team's atmosphere?   [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

In this episode, Jenny Blake explores how we can begin rethinking how we work and live, and why freedom is a system, not a feeling. She talks about what happens when our desire for control masquerades as safety, how the wrong metrics keep us stuck, and why real freedom comes from building systems that create space instead of pressure. Jenny also digs into the fear-based habits that quietly run our days and how to redesign our lives so they support what matters most.

A perfect video for youuu if you are in your slump season and are ready to exit it. In this video I'm talking slumps! Temporarily feeling flat, unmotivated, meh, blah - something that you can usually snap out of with some ease. If you're struggling to feel anything at all or do basic things that usually come easily to you and how you're feeling is interfering in a significant way with your day-to-day, please reach out to your GP or a therapist who specialises in low mood or depression. If you're not in a position where you can do that, there are some great mental health channels on YouTube created by licensed therapists that you might find useful, like the lovely Emma McAdam: https://www.youtube.com/@TherapyinaNutshell .In this video I talked about:☁️ How to Figure Out What You Want: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYLk8u8e_UA&t=59s&pp=ygUpaG93IHRvIGZpZ3VyZSBvdXQgd2hhdCB5b3Ugd2FudCBtdWNoZWxsZWI%3D☁️ Life Admin Playlists: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mXniK__JPs&list=PLW3yd6NHmEVpTHKvpxzwmqhIfUbnIkyLc

In this episode, Joe Nucci explores what it means to go beyond the buzzwords and how to talk about mental health without losing its meaning. He explains how mental health language has become less useful as it's gained popularity, and how clinical terms meant for specific purposes have drifted into everyday speech until they describe everything, and therefore, nothing. The words we use create the world we see, and once you start viewing yourself through a diagnostic lens, it can be hard to see in any other way. One of the most powerful takeaways from this conversation is that the value of a psychological term lies not only in its accuracy, but in its usefulness, and sometimes the language we use builds a cage instead of offering clarity.Exciting News!!!

On a crisp Monday morning, The Valley Today host Janet Michael sits down with Jaclyn Mommen at Patti's Place, nestled within the rolling landscape of Laurel Grove Wine Farm. What begins as a conversation about a local business quickly blossoms into a deep exploration of regenerative agriculture, community, and the power of small, intentional changes. Jaclyn, the driving force behind the farm, shares her journey from city life to stewarding the land, motivated by a desire to connect her family—and her community—to healthier food and a more sustainable way of living. From Frustration to Farming Jaclyn's story is one of transformation. Frustrated by the state of modern food systems and the health consequences of industrial agriculture, she and her husband decided to make a radical change. They moved to the valley, determined to grow grapes and raise their children on a working farm. As Jaclyn recounts, the learning curve was steep: mastering tractors, understanding soil health, and navigating the unpredictable challenges of weather and climate change. Yet, with each hurdle, her resolve only strengthened. The Science of Soil and the Art of Wine Transitioning to regenerative farming required more than just good intentions. Jaclyn dove into the science, studying soil health under a microscope and tracking the sugar content in grape leaves to ensure her plants thrived without chemical intervention. She explains how healthy soil leads to resilient crops, which in turn support healthier people. The conversation naturally turns to wine, a shared passion for both Jaclyn and her husband. For them, wine is more than a beverage—it's a catalyst for connection, conversation, and community. At Patti's Place, every bottle tells a story, not just of flavor, but of farming practices and environmental stewardship. Building a Community Hub Patti's Place is more than a farm market; it's a gathering space designed to foster connection. Jaclyn describes the evolution of the property, from discovering an old schoolhouse in the woods to creating a vibrant market and café. The name itself pays homage to Patti Williams, a beloved figure whose legacy is woven into the land. Today, the space offers everything from yoga classes to wine tastings, all with a focus on sustainability and local sourcing. Jaclyn's team—including family, friends, and passionate staff—embodies the collaborative spirit that makes the venture possible. Small Changes, Big Impact Throughout the conversation, a central theme emerges: meaningful change starts with small, consistent actions. Whether it's choosing chemical-free products, composting, or simply slowing down to enjoy a meal, Jaclyn believes that everyone can contribute to a healthier world. She shares practical tips and personal anecdotes, encouraging listeners to embrace progress over perfection. Looking Ahead As the conversation draws to a close, Janet and Jaclyn reflect on the future of Patti's Place and Laurel Grove Wine Farm. With plans to expand the wine library, host more community events, and continue improving the land, Jaclyn remains optimistic. Her story is a testament to the power of vision, resilience, and the belief that, together, we can cultivate a better future—one grape, one meal, and one small change at a time.

Triplett uses a baseball analogy to explain small, tactical changes in business communication. Eric, emphasizes that subtle adjustments, like a change in base-running strategy or the use of specific words in a sales interaction, can lead to dramatic improvements and success, much like winning the World Series. Participants in the discussion share their personal experiences with adopting new communication techniques, such as replacing "sales pitch" with "sales process" or "consultation," to reduce customer resistance and build trust. The overall theme is the importance of attention to finite details and continuous improvement in business practices, stressing that simple changes can yield powerful results. Key Takeaways: Watch the finite details in your activities because small deviations can compound into massive errors over time. Update your vocabulary by replacing "sales pitch" with "sales process" or "sales journey" to boost your mindset. Utilize positive language like "consultation" or "retainer" to reduce sales resistance associated with "charge" or "fee." Implement small, simple changes, such as modifying a single word, to drastically improve your business communication. Become a better listener and focus on making many small, cumulative changes to ensure consistent victories in your endeavors.

He discusses how to tell the difference between “thin desires (fleeting, imitated wants) and “thick desires” (the deeper longings that bring lasting fulfillment), and why discerning between the two can change the direction of your life. Luke also shares practices for uncovering your true hierarchy of values, creating alignment between what you want and who you want to be.

Sometimes, it begins with a pair of brothers who love good design, care deeply about their city, and want to create spaces where neighbors can gather and belong.That's the story of Joe McCallum, co-owner of Rise Over Run, who is transforming the Sunnyslope neighborhood of Phoenix, Arizona, one building at a time. What began as an appreciation for mid-century modern architecture has evolved into a mission to bring new life to an overlooked community while preserving its authentic character.“Sunnyslope is such a good example of that,” Joe said. “There's been a community here that's a little removed... it's maintained a little bit of quirkiness and a little bit of its own character, and I think it deserves to be highlighted.”Joe and his brother began by purchasing a distinctive 1960 mid-century modern building at 524 West Hatcher Road. Their goal was simple: to repurpose and reimagine it as something that could anchor local energy and pride. After experimenting with a furniture showroom, they're now transforming the space into a taproom focused on Arizona-made beer and wine, complete with room for community events, art shows, and local gatherings.But Joe's vision extends beyond one building. Rise Over Run has already added another property across the street, now home to a coffee shop, art studio, and florist. Together, these spaces are becoming catalysts for a renewed sense of connection and belonging in Sunnyslope.To help fund this mission, Rise Over Run is raising capital through a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign on Small Change, a platform that specializes in socially impactful real estate projects. This approach allows local supporters—not just accredited investors—to invest directly in the revitalization of their own neighborhood.“For many people who may not be accredited investors or may not even know that that's a thing to be, there's a way to invest via crowdfunding,” Joe explained. “It allows a broader group from the community to feel like they are part of something they're not only cheering from the sidelines, but actually supporting directly.”That's the essence of what makes Rise Over Run so special. It's not just a real estate project—it's a movement to empower community members to take part in shaping their environment. As Joe put it, it's “a way to directly support seeing that happen in this community.”You can learn more about the project—or even invest—by visiting s4g.biz/sunny, which links directly to Rise Over Run's offering on Small Change.tl;dr:Joe McCallum shared how Rise Over Run is revitalizing Sunnyslope through community-driven real estate projects.Joe explained his motivation to preserve the neighborhood's quirky identity while creating vibrant gathering spaces.He discussed Rise Over Run's regulated investment crowdfunding campaign on Small Change, inviting locals to invest in their community.Joe revealed that his superpower is curiosity, which drives him to explore ideas and uncover opportunities others might miss.He encouraged listeners to nurture curiosity by staying open, following genuine interests, and challenging conventional paths.How to Develop Curiosity As a SuperpowerJoe's superpower is curiosity, a natural drive to explore, learn, and uncover hidden potential. “Curiosity,” Joe explained, “is what...led me to what I'm doing now.” His insatiable desire to “turn over stones” and “pull the thread” has fueled his career as an investment analyst and now as a real estate developer. Whether it's researching a neighborhood's history or uncovering opportunities in forgotten buildings, Joe's curiosity has been the driving force behind his success and impact.Illustrative Story:Joe's curiosity led him and his brother to Sunny Slope. They were drawn to an abandoned mid-century modern building with potential, even though it wasn't listed for sale. Through research, they uncovered the property's history and reached out to the owner, a real estate agent who hadn't pursued his plans for the property. This curiosity-driven approach enabled Joe to acquire and transform the building, setting the foundation for Rise Over Run's projects in the neighborhood.Tips for Developing Curiosity:Follow Your Interests: Pursue topics and ideas that naturally catch your attention.Avoid Prejudging Paths: Don't dismiss opportunities that don't fit the traditional mold of success.Dig Deeper: Research and explore beyond surface-level information to uncover hidden opportunities.Engage with Others: Learn from people who share your interests to expand your understanding and perspective.By following Joe McCallum's example and advice, you can make curiosity a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileJoe McCallum (he/him):Co-Owner, Rise Over RunAbout Rise Over Run: Rise Over Run is an investment holding company focused on adaptive reuse and infill real estate development in the Sunnyslope neighborhood of Phoenix, AZ.

Send us a textWhat if mental health and behavior weren't just about the brain, but also about the body? In this fascinating conversation, Jeff sits down with Dr. Tamara Bodnar, a biological scientist and researcher at the University of Calgary, whose work is changing how we understand FASD from the inside out.Dr. Bodnar studies the gut–brain axis — the constant communication between our digestive system and our brain — and how prenatal alcohol exposure can disrupt that balance for life. Her groundbreaking research reveals how gut health, inflammation, and stress all shape behavior, mood, and regulation in ways caregivers see every day.Together, Jeff and Dr. Bodnar explore how small, realistic shifts like balanced meals, hydration, and consistent routines can support both body and brain. They also talk about what's next in FASD science, including probiotics, personalized medicine, and new collaborations that bring caregivers and researchers together.In this episode you'll learn how prenatal alcohol exposure affects gut health and stress regulation, why inflammation can amplify mood and behavior, and how to make simple, guilt-free choices that help create calm from the inside out.This episode reminds us that behavior isn't just communication — it's biology. When we understand how the body and brain talk to each other, we can replace frustration with compassion and find hope in small, steady changes. Dr. Bodnar's work validates what families have always known in their gut: small steps matter, and progress starts from the inside out.You're not alone.

The fun thing about time management is that you get to *choose* the philosophy and approach that works for you, but a lot of productivity advice is presented as "right vs wrong". In this video, I share a buffet of 20 time management tips for you to choose from - that completely contradict each other (because that is the nature of productivity advice).

Do you feel good in your own home?Does your family culture feel like a safe, joyful refuge—or more like constant conflict and stress?Most parents spend 90% of their time fixing problems instead of preventing them. But what if the secret to a thriving home is in the things you never do?In this video, Greg and Rachel Denning—parents of 7 and family coaches—reveal the small but powerful “never-do's” that transformed their parenting and family culture. From eliminating sarcasm and insults, to saying no to video games, TV, and constant notifications, these intentional choices create a home environment where kids feel secure, confident, and deeply attached.They share why attachment—not punishment—prevents misbehavior, how harshness backfires, and why saying “no” to outside noise means saying “yes” to family connection.Raising kids is already hard enough. But by eliminating just a few destructive habits, you can dramatically reduce sibling rivalry, power struggles, and emotional distance in your home.

In this week's show Lian is joined by John Kippen. John is an entrepreneur, professional magician, speaker, resilience and empowerment coach and published author. John was dealt a bad blow in 2002 when he was diagnosed with a large benign brain tumor. Its removal, although successful, left him with permanent facial paralysis which stopped his forward momentum forcing him into hiding for more than 12 years. As John hit bottom, he rediscovered his childhood love for performing magic and storytelling. Now filled with passion and hope, he discovered that his facial paralysis had become his greatest superpower. This new mindset gave John the strength to live life with joy and become a sought after resilience and empowerment coach who uses the lessons and tricks he learned overcoming his adversity to inspire and assist his clients to get out of their own way and live their best lives. His two mottos are “Being Different is your Superpower!” and “Feed your Heart with your Art”. In this episode, Lian and John explore identity, being seen, and the simple choices that change a room. John shares the day a brain tumour changed his face, the eight years he avoided mirrors, the child who asked what adults wouldn't, and the moment he chose to name the change to his face before anyone else did. Together, they look at what actually makes the difference: saying the obvious thing first so people relax, letting repetition and craft rebuild confidence, and making the person in front of you the point. Listen if you have ever dodged photos, worried about what strangers notice, or wondered how to begin again after a big change that impacts you at the level of your identity.
