1147. In this bonus segment that originally ran in October, we look at the fascinating history of the "new letters" of the alphabet — V, W, X, Y, and Z. Danny Bate explains why T was the original end of the alphabet and how letters were added by the Greeks and Romans. We also look at the origin of the letter Y, which was originally a vowel, and the two historical reasons we call the final letter “zee” or “zed.”Find Danny Bate on his website, Bluesky or on X. Get the book, "Why Q Needs U."Listen to Danny's podcast, "A Language I Love Is..."Links to Get One Month Free of the Grammar Girl Patreon (different links for different levels)Order of the Snail ($1/month level): https://www.patreon.com/grammargirl/redeem/687E4Order of the Aardvark ($5/month level): https://www.patreon.com/grammargirl/redeem/07205Keeper of the Commas ($10/month level): https://www.patreon.com/grammargirl/redeem/50A0BGuardian of the Grammary ($25/month level): https://www.patreon.com/grammargirl/redeem/949F7

Andrea closes out the year with an encouraging, grounded conversation about why New Year's resolutions so often fall apart and what actually works instead. She walks through the science and psychology behind motivation, capacity, stress, and the nervous system, and explains why small, repeatable habits build real momentum while big January overhauls usually backfire.

Hello Brave Friends! This is a Winter Re-Run of one of our favorite Ask Us Anything episodes from Seasons 5 and 6. Call in to our SpeakPipe to ask YOUR questions and tune in next season, starting in January 2026, for many more.   This is an Ask Us Anything episode in which YOU, the listener, get to write or call in and, you guessed it, ASK US ANYTHING! In this episode, #165, we are discussing how to get the most out of connection circles and in general, support groups, without taking on other attendee's pain. In this community we are ALREADY dealing with our own tough feelings when we step into a group sharing environment and as Dr. Zoe Shaw says, in this episode, “we're wired for protection not connection” so dealing with other people's emotions on top of our own can feel daunting. BUT it doesn't have to feel that way and the community and sisterhood that comes with sharing and holding space for those emotions is so worth facing your own. There are so many wisdom gems, AHA moments and tools in this episode for helping us deconstruct the emotions we feel when in the presence of other people's pain. Please enjoy this important episode of Ask Us Anything. Whether you have questions as a parent to a child with complex medical or mental health needs or you're someone looking to support a care-giving parent, we would LOVE to hear from you. If you have any topic requests or if you would like to ask a question, leave us a message here.Find more information about Licensed Psychotherapist, Dr. Zoe Shaw here. Find more information about Life Coach, Susanna Peace Lovell here.Find Susanna's book, Your True Self is Enough here.Brave Together Podcast is a resource produced by We Are Brave Together, a global nonprofit that creates community for moms raising children with disabilities, neurodivergence, or complex medical and mental health conditions.

1146. This week, we look at the history of Braille, from the tragic accident that inspired Louis Braille's six-dot system to the "War of the Dots"—a decades-long conflict over competing reading standards in the U.S. Then, we look at the origin of the phrase "pitch black," revealing how the intensifier "pitch" refers to an ancient, dark wood tar and how the word traces its roots back to Old English.The braille segment was written by Karen Lunde, a longtime writer and editor turned web designer and marketing mentor. Solo service business owners come to her for websites where beautiful design meets authentic words that actually build connections. Find her at chanterellemarketingstudio.com.The pitch black segment was run by Samantha Enslen who runs Dragonfly Editorial.

Send us a textI thought I was recording a tidy little year-end recap. A highlight reel. A greatest hits moment. Easy.Instead, I found myself staring at this year of conversations and realizing something way more uncomfortable and way more interesting. Certain themes kept showing up. Across guests who had nothing in common. Across topics that should not have overlapped. And somehow, those themes quietly rewired how I think about goals, ambition, self-compassion, and what I'm willing to accept in my own life.So this episode is not a highlight reel.It's a reflection on the three biggest lessons this podcast taught me this year and why they might matter for you too.One of them completely changed how I look at “stuck” goals and the stories we tell ourselves about why something isn't possible yet. Another challenged the way I think about self-compassion and why being kind to yourself does not mean settling or giving up. And the third forced me to take a hard look at what I'm letting into my brain every single day and how much low-quality noise we've all been normalizing.I share the moments that cracked these lessons open for me, the guests who sparked the shifts, and the questions that stopped me mid-spiral more than once this year.This episode is part reflection, part pattern recognition, and part invitation to stop carrying goals and beliefs that feel heavy, obligatory, or vaguely punishing.If you're heading into a new season thinking about what you want next or wondering why certain goals just don't light you up anymore, this one might land closer to home than you expect.What's Inside:The patterns I couldn't unsee after reviewing a full year of conversationsWhy some goals quietly drain you before you even startA reframing of self-compassion that removes shame without removing choiceWhat happens when you stop letting low-quality noise rent space in your brainThis episode isn't about doing more or fixing yourself. It's about noticing what keeps repeating and having the courage to question it. I'd love to know which theme made you pause or which one you're still chewing on. DM me on Instagram and tell me what you're carrying forward and what you're ready to leave behind.Mentioned in This Episode:Oonagh Duncan on InstagramFit Feels GoodLeave me a voice note on Speak Pipe!

In this episode of Workday Playdate, Erin unpacks a simple idea: your words are wands. AKA, the way you talk to yourself is actively shaping what happens next.Erin introduces the concept of “Words Are Wands,” exploring how inner dialogue influences confidence, creativity, opportunity, and action. Drawing from improv, neuroscience, and real-life moments, she breaks down why most of us are stuck in negative, repetitive thought loops, and how to interrupt them on purpose.Through a five-step improv-based framework, Erin shows how reframing your thoughts isn't “toxic positivity,” it's a skill. One that helps you work with your brain (hello, Reticular Activating System) instead of against it.The big takeaway: when you change your language, you change what feels possible.Inside This Episode:Words Are Wands: How your inner dialogue quietly dictates your future.The Thought Loop Problem: Why 80% of our thoughts are negative, 95% are repetitive, and what that means for confidence and burnout.Reframing Without the Eye Roll: How to shift thoughts in a way that actually unlocks creativity and forward motion.The Brain on Focus (RAS Explained): How your Reticular Activating System filters reality, and how to train it to spot opportunities instead of threats.An Improv Framework for Mindset Shifts: A five-step approach for noticing thoughts, reframing language, and choosing aligned action.Small Actions, Big Shifts: Why tiny, intentional moves matter more than dramatic mindset overhauls.Who This Episode Is For:High performers stuck in negative self-talk or overthinking loopsLeaders, creatives, and humans who want more confidence and clarityAnyone craving a mindset shift that's practical, playful, and grounded Fans of improv, personal growth, and brain-friendly self-improvementYour FreebieYou've tried the emails, the all-hands rollout, and the polished decks, but the vision still isn't landing.That's because people don't buy into a vision that's presented to them; they buy into one they help shape.

Are we psychic? According to the history....... not no. Every year, we have a stab at what we can expect to smell in the coming year's forecast, based on current trends, emerging trends, the thousands of PR emails we receive trying to make [redacted] happen, and what we've been seeing and smelling on the streets. And most of the time, we are correct! Consider this a free seminar on fragrance marketing and trend forecasting. [What we smell like today: Krigler Velvet Night 76, Maison D'Etto i-Dream] Shop our

Send us a textThis episode wrecked me in the very best way.On September 11th, 2001, while most of the world was glued to their TVs watching unimaginable horror unfold, Diane Davis was teaching Grade 3 French immersion in Gander, Newfoundland, an airport town of about 10,000 people that would suddenly become home to nearly 7,000 stranded airline passengers.What happened next is the part of the 9/11 story you probably don't know.Diane walks me through those surreal days when 38 planes were diverted to Gander and an entire community quietly, efficiently, and compassionately mobilized. Teachers turned schools into shelters. Bus drivers walked off strike to shuttle passengers. Churches, camps, and tiny outport towns filled trucks with food, bedding, and toothbrushes. Bulletin boards replaced the internet. Tim Hortons boxes became filing systems. No one waited to be told what to do. People just did what they could.Diane's story became part of Come From Away, the Broadway musical inspired by Gander's response to 9/11. Yes, there is literally a character based on her. But what struck me most wasn't the red carpets or the Tony Awards. It was her belief that none of this was extraordinary. It was simply people showing up with whatever skills they had.We also talk about the other side of being a lifelong helper, learning how to receive. Diane shares candidly about her current cancer treatment, the discomfort of accepting support, and how community once again is carrying her through. This conversation is about kindness, grit, humility, and the quiet magic that happens when strangers choose to care for each other.You might cry. I definitely did. And you'll walk away remembering what humans are capable of when we're at our best.What's Inside:What really happened in Gander when thousands of planes were diverted on 9/11How ordinary people self-organized to care for thousands of strangersThe real-life story behind Come From AwayWhy learning to receive help can be just as powerful as giving itSo here's what I want you thinking about after this episode. What does being rich actually mean to you? Is it having more than enough for yourself or being so resourced that you can show up for others without hesitation? Diane's story is a masterclass in emotional wealth, generosity, and community. And look, that kind of life is built one choice at a time.I want to hear from you. What kind of world do you want to help create, and what role do you want to play in it? DM me on Instagram and let's talk about it. I read every message.Mentioned in This Episode:Give Back To Diane DavisOonagh Duncan on InstagramFit Feels GoodLeave me a voice note on Speak Pipe!Goal Setting Workshop

If the Sew Much More Podcast has played a role in your journey in any way, I hope you'll consider participating. Here are the three questions: What changed for you after listening to, or being on, the Sew Much More Podcast? That change might have been practical—or it might have been internal. Second: What challenge were you facing at the time, and where are you now? That challenge might still be ongoing, or it might be something you've moved through. And third: What one idea or moment stayed with you longer than you expected? Sometimes it's the smallest insight or someone says things a certain way that makes the biggest difference.   The best way to share your story is by leaving a voicemail using SpeakPipe.   Here is the link to SpeakPipe   A few tips so your message sounds great: Please use your phone, not your computer. Phones tend to produce much better audio quality. Find a quiet space where you won't be interrupted. Aim for 60 to 90 seconds. If you're unsure, err on the shorter side. At the beginning of your message, please share your first name and, if you're comfortable, your location. If you would prefer not to leave a voicemail, please send me an email to info@csfrl.org.

The Worst Christmas Gift I Ever Received Welcome, wisdom-seekers to Skip's Quips - a Holiday Special Edition! This week on The Main Thing Podcast, we're doing something a little different — and a little more intimate. No guest. No interview. Just you and me, gathered around a story that has stayed with me for nearly half a century. And it couldn't be landing at a better time. Today is a week before Christmas, and most of us are feeling the familiar holiday squeeze — the pressure to get it right, to pick the perfect gifts, to keep all the moving parts moving. Before the wrapping paper flies and the chaos peaks, let's pause to unwrap a story that surprised me… and eventually shaped me. This is the tale of the worst Christmas gift I ever received — and the unexpected wisdom it carried. About This Special Episode In this short Christmas reflection, I take you back to 1976, when ten-year-old Skip unwrapped a gift that left him confused, disappointed, and wondering what he had done wrong. But what I didn't know then — and what I can see so clearly now — is that the quiet gifts we don't understand often become the ones that shape our character the most deeply. This story is a reminder that: Some gifts grow on us slowly Love sometimes looks like preparation And the smallest objects can carry the largest lessons It's my Christmas gift to you today — a little wisdom wrapped in memory, gratitude, and hindsight. Where's the Special Guest and What's a "Skip's Quip?" We are doing something a little different. I'll be sharing a wisdom lesson with you—but there won't be a guest. Just me, sharing wisdom. A short wisdom lesson of less than 10 minutes total. We plan to do these about 6 times a year. We're calling these special editions - "Skip's Quips." Don't worry, we will still bring you wisdom conversations with our special guests twice a month. Additionally, you will receive "Skip's Quips" to supplement to our regular wisdom programming. Let us know what you think, and please share your feedback. You can do that via SpeakPipe.   This special "Skip's Quip" will help you: Reset your heart six days before Christmas See gift-giving through a new, deeper lens Remember the shaping power of work, responsibility, and small tasks   For More Information About Skip Lineberg Please visit our website.   Credits Editor + Technical Advisor Bob Hotchkiss Brand + Strategy Advisor Andy Malinoski PR + Partnerships Advisor Rachel Bell Marketing, Social Media and Graphic Design Chloe Lineberg   Stay Connected with Us on Social YouTube @themainthingpod Twitter @themainthingpod Instagram @themainthingpod Facebook  @TheMainThingPod LinkedIn TikTok @TheMainThingPod   Help Support and Sustain This Podcast Become a subscriber.

In this final episode of the year, we slow down and reflect on what this year held—the meaningful moments, the hard ones, and the lessons we want to remember. I'm joined by my dear friend Kristy Lauricella as we answer reflective questions (available to download), share our unexpected words of the year, and talk about the books, podcasts, and shows that stayed with us. This conversation isn't about doing the year "right," but about noticing, closing the year with intention, and offering ourselves a little more self-compassion.

Who is the child Isaiah prophesied about in the famous line, “For unto us a child is born”? Although most Christians see this as a reference to Jesus, we should first ask what this meant to Isaiah and his original audience seven centuries before Christ. When we do, we see that this prophecy was actually about deliverance from the Assyrian Empire and an unprecedented, miraculous military victory. Even so, Jesus also fulfilled aspects of this prophecy in his ministry, and I believe he will fulfill the rest when he comes again.   Listen on Spotify   Listen on Apple Podcasts —— Links —— Check out Isaiah 9.6 Explained: A Theophoric Approach, which delves deeply into the Hebrew words to explain what they mean Support Restitutio by donating here Join our Facebook group, follow on X @RestitutioSF or Instagram @Sean.P.Finnegan Leave a 90 second voice message via SpeakPipe with questions or comments and we may play it out on the air Who is Sean Finnegan?  Read his bio here Get Finnegan’s book, Kingdom Journey to learn about God’s kingdom coming on earth as well as the story of how Christianity lost this pearl of great price.
