Are you trying to set teen boundaries without your child calling you “controlling” or “the worst parent ever”?If you want your teen to live by high standards—around tech, food, friends, habits, and lifestyle—you can't just make it your standard and enforce it. It has to become their standard. In this episode of the Extraordinary Family Life Podcast, Greg and Rachel break down exactly how they helped their own teens buy in so deeply that they now say things like, “I'm not putting that garbage in my body,” or “I don't waste my life on that.”Instead of rules and power struggles, they show you how to prioritize relationship over rules, lean on unconditional love, and teach the laws that govern health, happiness, success, and addiction—so your kids see for themselves where certain choices lead. When teens understand the why behind your standards, they stop feeling controlled and start choosing those standards for themselves.You'll also hear how the Dennings have intentionally made real life more compelling than video games or junk food—often inviting friends along for the ride—so the “different” lifestyle isn't a punishment, it's an upgrade.If you've ever wondered, “How do I hold the line without wrecking the relationship?” this conversation will give you a new framework: less control, more conviction—and a family standard that everyone owns.
Language assessments shape who gets services, how goals are written, and how progress is measured, but there are many misconceptions about how to follow best-practices when doing an evaluation. In this three-part series, bilingual SLPs Destiny Johnson and Tiffany Shahoumian-Ruiz join me to dig into the science, the myths, and the policies that shape evaluation practices in schools.Across these conversations, we explore:Sensitivity, specificity, reference standards, and diagnostic accuracyHow test development has evolved over time and why this matters Why the same cut-off score shouldn't apply across all testsThe math behind using two norm-referenced tests, and why it may complicate rather than clarify in some casesOther reasons we test beyond diagnosis (treatment planning, severity, monitoring progress)How do we do we to “sell” the concept of dynamic assessment to administratorsCase studies that show the pitfalls of over-reliance on standardized scoresMisconceptions clinicians often hold, and what they should know about assessmentDifferences in state eligibility standards, and what this means for service decisionsThis series is part myth-busting, part practical strategies, and part advocacy playbook—perfect for clinicians who want to move beyond compliance-driven evaluations toward assessments that truly reflect students' needs.You can listen to Part 1 of the series here.Destiny Johnson, M.S., CCC-SLP, is a bilingual speech-language pathologist (English/Spanish) with a deep passion for culturally responsive assessment and treatment practices, as well as advocating for policy change. She has presented on dynamic assessment at the CSHA Convergence 2024, focusing on the importance of dynamic assessment in bilingual children.

She is the author of two books of rabbinic scholarship and of numerous articles in the areas of rabbinic literature, Jewish law, and feminist studies, including "Is Rav's Wife 'a Dish'? Food and Eating Metaphors in Rabbinic Discourse of Sexuality and Gender Relations", which serves as the catalyst for this episode.Dr. Labovitz has also taught at the Jewish Theological Seminary of America (JTS) and the Academy for Jewish Religion in New York.

For something that we do every single day, and something that has the power to change every aspect of our life, we sure don't focus on, train, or develop it. And, that thing is conversation. Nothing great ever happened in your life without, first, a conversation – no promotions, no jobs, no clients, no dates, nothing. My guest today, Payam Pakmanesh (known as "The Convo Guy") is here to explain why and, more importantly, how we can build and develop our ability to communicate more effectively. We cover the proper principles of communication, Adlerian Psychology and how it helps you focus on what you can control, the "Zoom Flow" model for deeper connection, how to make yourself more approachable, and becoming aware of how others perceive you.

Recently, ACT Party MP, Laura McClure, has launched a member's bill, proposing the disestablishment of the Broadcasting Standards Authority, or BSA. This member's bill follows a complaint laid to the BSA regarding Sean Plunket's online media network, The Platform. Plunket says the content of his show does not meet the requirements of the Broadcasting Act, and that the BSA had “"woefully and egregiously overstepped its bounds". The BSA, however, says Plunket's show clearly meets the requirements of the ACT. News and Editorial Director Joel spoke to Peter Thompson, an Associate Media and Communications Professor at the Victoria University of Wellington and board member of the Better Public Media Trust, about this member's bill and what the bill is proposing.
Recently, the controversial Regulatory Standards Bill passed its third and final reading. The bill has raised concerns amongst many for a variety of reasons, including its lack of recognition of Te Tiriti o Waitangi, the risks it poses to the environment, and what opponents say is its ‘narrow neoliberal framework'. The bill, during public submissions, received 156,000 submissions, with over 98% voicing their opposition to the proposed legislation. News and Editorial Director Joel spoke to Geoffrey Bertram, a visiting scholar and retired lecturer at the Victoria University of Wellington about the bill, why it is so polarising, and what the passing of this bill means heading forward.

A few weeks ago, Kelston Boys High School in West Auckland said they were at the front of an unsupported, attempted takeover to turn the school into a charter school. As well as this, more recently, the New Zealand Campus of Innovation and Sport, a charter school set to be established next year, was signed with a trust that did not exist. Amendments have also been made to the Education and Training Act, removing a clause requiring school boards give effect to Te Tiriti o Waitangi. The move has seen backlash from the National Iwi Chairs Forum and a growing number of schools, who have launched a petition against the move. Finally, the controversial Regulatory Standards Bill has passed its third reading and is now set to be implemented into law. The bill previously received 156,000 public submissions, with 98.7% of those voicing their opposition to the bill. For our weekly catch-up with ACT Party's Simon Court, News and Editorial Director and Monday Wire Host Joel spoke to him about these topics. They started off by asking Court about Kelston Boys High School and the New Zealand Campus of Innovation and Sport, and how concerning these developments are for the ACT Party.
Last Week, the government passed the regulatory standards bill into the regulatory standards act. Long controversial, failing to pass in its first three readings and subject to enormous opposition in submissions during the process, the law is the child of David Seymour's ACT party. But now that this law has passed, these serious concerns are of urgency. Particularly there are loud concerns and criticisms of the primacy granted to corporate interests, in the face of te Tiriti o Waitangi and the environment. Monday Wire Producer Alex spoke to Greenpeace Campaigner Gen Toop about the bill passing, what it means for the environment, and what should be done in the face of this policy threat.

Most people avoid the edge because it's uncomfortable, but that's exactly where greatness lives. If you want to be truly great at what you do, you've got to be willing to live where most people only visit — on the edge. In this episode, I talk about what it really means to live on the edge. I'm not talking about being reckless — I'm talking about refusing to be average and choosing to operate where there's pressure and every move counts. Show Notes [03:34]#1 Comfort is your enemy.

Show Notes: In this episode of Shark Theory, Baylor Barbee dives into the importance of separating goals from standards—and why the people who say you're "doing too much" are often the ones doing too little. Using real-life insight from his own routines and habits, Baylor challenges you to stop chasing goals that fade and start building standards that last. You'll learn how to define your personal baseline, avoid effort failures, and prepare yourself not just for the next level—but for two levels up. Because when you start living by standards instead of goals, excellence stops being something you reach for and starts being who you are. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why critics often project their own insecurities onto your ambition How to define your minimum standard in every area of life The difference between expectations, goals, and standards Why thinking two levels ahead guarantees growth How living by standards leads to consistency and long-term success Featured Quote: "Stop hoping to hit goals—decide to live by standards. Standards create habits, and habits create the life you want."

We're going to start today's show talking about the Regulatory Standards Bill -which has now passed its third reading in Parliament. Despite more than 98% of public submissions opposing the bill, it sailed through with the backing of all three coalition parties. That means it's now set to be signed in to law by the Governor-General. But what actually is the regulatory standards bill? It feels like there has been a lot of commentary from people for and against the bill .. but we wondered how many of you actually know what it will do? RNZ Political Reporter Russell Palmer joins Jesse.
The National Standards Authority of Ireland (NSAI) and the Standards Council of Canada (SCC) have signed a new cooperation agreement, marking the start of closer collaboration between the two countries as national standards bodies. The agreement reflects a shared commitment to strengthen the role of standards in supporting innovation, sustainable growth and trusted trade. Standards provide the common rules that allow technologies to scale, supply chains to function smoothly and businesses to access new markets with confidence. This cooperation builds a bridge between Canada and Ireland's standards systems, ensuring that both countries can share expertise, align on priorities and increase their influence internationally. The new partnership between Canada's national standards body and Ireland's national standards body also opens the door for collaboration in key areas such as digital technologies, sustainability and infrastructure resilience. For businesses, it means greater predictability, fewer duplicative steps and stronger confidence that Canadian and Irish standards will support competitiveness at home and abroad. Geraldine Larkin, Chief Executive Officer, National Standards Authority of Ireland said: "At the heart of the global standardisation system is the principle of working together. This agreement between the NSAI and SCC demonstrates the power of global partnership. By working together, we can better align on emerging priorities, strengthen international cooperation and ensure that standards continue to drive innovation and sustainable growth in both Ireland and Canada." Chantal Guay, Chief Executive Officer, Standards Council of Canada added: "Standards create the trust that underpins innovation and trade. By launching this cooperation with NSAI, we are reinforcing Canada and Ireland's leadership in shaping international standards that support growth, open markets and give businesses the confidence to compete globally." Developed through collaboration and consensus-driven approaches, standards embed resilience into products and services, making them safer, more trustworthy, more sustainable and more adaptable. In addition to developing standards at national and regional level, the SCC and NSAI help ensure that technical experts from both Canada and Ireland contribute to developing ISO and IEC International Standards.

It's fourth time lucky for ACT, with the Regulatory Standards Bill finally passing into law. The party has brought versions of the bill to parliament three times since 2006. Otago University law Professor Andrew Geddis spoke to Corin Dann.
The Regulation Minister says a small number of groups have hijacked the public submission process. ACT's Regulatory Standards Bill has passed its third reading at Parliament. The policy, which provides principles for lawmaking, received 156-thousand public submissions – 98% of those opposed. David Seymour told Mike Hosking there have been more select committee submissions in the past two years than in the history of Parliament. He says organisations like Greenpeace spread mistruths and automate submissions for people. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This episode continues our coverage of the Ozark Mountain Bigfoot Conference, recorded live in October 2025. In this session, we feature David Zigan's presentation on professionalism and evidence standards in Bigfoot research—but not before the audience gets a dose of laughter and behind-the-scenes fun from Ryan “RPG”, who kicks things off with twenty minutes of hilarious stories from his time working on Finding Bigfoot.Once the laughter fades, David takes the stage to deliver a fascinating and insightful talk on how rigorous documentation, forensic protocols, and transparent methodology can elevate Bigfoot research to a new level of credibility. Drawing from his experience as a crime scene investigator, David explains how applying professional investigative practices—like maintaining field journals, photographing tracks from multiple angles, and preserving evidence correctly—can help bridge the gap between curiosity and scientific acceptance.With humor, honesty, and a deep respect for the subject, this presentation highlights why raising standards in Bigfoot research is essential for moving the field forward. Whether you're a seasoned investigator or simply fascinated by the legend, this session offers both practical tools and thought-provoking perspective.Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteSupport Our SponsorsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

Alidad Hamidi: The Tax Agile Teams Pay for Organizational Standards 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. "If you set targets for people, they will achieve the target, even if that means destroying the system around them." - W. Edwards Deming (quoted by Alidad) The tension is familiar to every Scrum Master working in large organizations: leadership demands standard operating models, flow time metrics below specific numbers, and reporting structures that fit neat boxes. Meanwhile, teams struggle under the weight of context-insensitive measurements that ignore the nuanced reality of their work. Alidad faces this challenge daily—creating balance between organizational demands and what teams actually need to transform and thrive. His approach starts with a simple but powerful question to leaders: "What is it that you want to achieve with these metrics?" Going beyond corporate-speak to have real conversations reveals that most leaders want outcomes, not just numbers. Alidad then involves teams in defining strategies to achieve those outcomes, framing metrics as "the tax we pay" or "the license to play." When teams understand the intent and participate in the strategy, something surprising happens—most metrics naturally improve because teams are delivering genuine value, customers are happy, and team dynamics are healthy. But context sensitivity remains critical. Alidad uses a vivid analogy: "If you apply lean metrics to Pixar Studio, you're gonna kill Pixar Studio. If you apply approaches of Pixar Studio to production line, they will go bankrupt in less than a month." Toyota's production line and Pixar's creative studio both need different approaches based on their context, team evolution, organizational maturity, and market environment. He advocates aligning teams to value delivery with end-to-end metrics rather than individual team measurements, recognizing that organizations operate in ecosystem models beyond simple product paradigms. Perhaps most important is patience. "Try to not drink coffee for a week," Alidad challenges. "Even for a single person, one practice, it's very hard to change your behavior. Imagine for organization of hundreds of thousands of people." Organizations move through learning cycles at their own rhythm. Our job isn't to force change at the speed we prefer—it's to take responsibility for our freedom and find ways to move the system, accepting that systems have their own speed. Self-reflection Question: Which metrics are you applying to your teams without considering their specific context, and what conversation do you need to have with leadership about the outcomes those metrics are meant to achieve?

This episode of Quality Matters features Misty Milby, VP of Clinical Business Development at Everlywell, and Claire Mendelson, Product Manager at NCQA.To illuminate what makes virtual care safe, effective and sustainable, Misty and Claire unpack NCQA's new Virtual Care Accreditation program. They explore five essential standards that define excellence in virtual primary and urgent care—and share insights from Everlywell's experience piloting the standards. Misty and Claire make a compelling case for treating virtual care as a permanent, integrated part of the health care continuum.Listen to learn about:Quality and Patient Safety in Virtual Care: Virtual care must meet the same clinical and ethical standards as in-person care. Misty and Claire explain how high standards ensure rigorous quality improvement and patient safety across remote modalities.Fixing Fragmentation Through Care Coordination: Virtual care can either bridge or widen gaps in the system. Effective care helps prevent “referral loops” and ensure seamless handoffs between virtual care and in-person providers.Equity Beyond Access: Equitable virtual care means more than logging in; it's about language, culture and more. Misty shares ideas on how to tailor care to patients' preferences, regardless of zip code or income.Clinician Experience Matters: Virtual care can reduce burnout, but only if it's intuitive and sustainable. Hear how effective standards for virtual care support clinicians with better workflows, realistic panel sizes and time to recharge. Key Quote:“ As a clinician, I can tell you that handoff is everything. A great virtual encounter means nothing if the patient falls through the cracks afterwards or gets on this continuous referral highway, and is never able to get off of it. So NCQA really ensured for us that virtual providers have defined workflows for referrals. We had to make sure that this was really buttoned up, as we didn't want anybody to get stuck on that referral loop or fall through the cracks. We wanted to make sure that the patients experience continuous care versus fragmented care. And it's really about making sure virtual care doesn't create silos, but that it strengthens that bridge between virtual care and in-person care.” -Misty Milby--Time Stamps:(04:26) Misty's Dream for Virtual Care(08:35) Quality and Patient Safety(10:03) Expectations for Care Coordination(11:32) Assessing Equitable Access(13:34) Goals for Patient and Clinician Experience(16:29) Standards for Sharing and Exchanging Data--Dive Deeper:NCQA Virtual Care AccreditationConnect with Misty Milby Connect with Claire Mendelson Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

New figures from ACC show 11 claims for babies or toddlers with carrier related injuries in 2024, more than twice the number the year before. It's prompted renewed calls for the government to introduce official safety standards for baby carriers, wraps and slings. It also follows a rise in social media videos often showing babies snuggly strapped to an adults front, in some cases with their faces and airways obscured. Louise Tanguay, founder of Auckland-based The Sleep Store, spoke to Lisa Owen.

In this episode of Grow Think Tank, we dive into the connection between leadership and workplace stress, and how CEOs can minimize stress to create healthier, more productive teams. Research shows that 75% of employees see their boss as a primary source of stress, which makes leadership style more important than ever. We'll talk about how clear communication, aligned priorities, and a psychologically safe environment can transform team dynamics, plus I'll share practical ways to reduce stress through stronger personal connections with your people. This episode will inspire you to lead with greater awareness and intention, helping both you and your team thrive. Be sure to check out my free training on effective leadership to take these ideas even further. Episode Highlights & Time Stamps 2:22 The Impact of Leadership on Employee Stress 3:55 Communicating to Alleviate Workplace Stress 4:46 Creating a Thriving Work Environment 5:26 Commitment to Improved Leadership Skills Understanding Leadership Stress Ask your team what they think you could do to improve as a leader. If you truly listen beyond the words, ask follow-up questions, and reflect on their answers. This gives you a much better chance to show up and help your employees feel less stressed. Welcome to Grow Think Tank! This is the only place to gain insights from the founders and CEOs of the fastest-growing privately held companies. I'm your host, Gene Hammett. I help leaders and their teams navigate the defining moments of growth. Today, we're talking about how stressful work can be, especially when you're the leader. Most leaders are used to stress, thrive under pressure, and have faced countless challenges. But a recent Harvard Business Review study shows that 75% of employees view their boss as their primary stressor. Now, I'm not saying that you're causing stress intentionally, but these numbers are eye-opening. Don't just dismiss it as "those other leaders can't manage." Instead, consider: where could you improve? How can CEOs minimize stress for their teams and create a healthier work environment? How Leadership Impacts Stress Stress often stems from unclear communication. If expectations aren't clear, confusion arises. Too many priorities? That's stress. Lack of psychological safety? Employees may hesitate to share ideas for fear of judgment. Think about what stresses you out at work, write it down, and use it as a starting point to make intentional changes. So, how do you reduce stress as a leader? It starts with communication, not just what needs to be done, but why it matters. Connect tasks to the company mission and to your team members' personal goals. Listen actively, ask how they're doing, and reflect on feedback to improve your leadership approach. This is a key way CEOs minimize stress in their teams. Remember, people spend more time at work than almost anywhere else. If 75% of your team feels stressed because of leadership, it's a problem that only you can address. By fostering trust, clarity, and support, you can create a workplace where people thrive. Taking Action to Reduce Stress I hope that you'll commit to being a better leader, improving communication, coaching, conflict resolution, feedback, and clarity. Strong leadership doesn't just get work done. It creates an environment where people can thrive and grow alongside you. If you want to go deeper, join my free training at training.coreelevation.com. It will help you refine your leadership skills, create clarity in your company, and implement a new leadership operating system, all steps that help CEOs minimize stress while driving growth. Invest in your leadership growth and take active steps today to create a workplace where both you and your team can thrive. Key Takeaways Leadership directly impacts workplace stress, with 75% of employees citing their boss as a primary stressor. In this episode, Gene Hammett shares actionable strategies for CEOs to minimize stress, including clear communication, aligning priorities, fostering psychological safety, and building stronger personal connections with employees. By implementing these practices, leaders can create a thriving work environment where teams feel supported, motivated, and empowered to grow.

This episode is a candid conversation about dating, self-worth, and the relationships that actually sustain us. Lo and his guest, author Rory Uphold, unpack the patterns that lead us to date down, ignore our intuition, and settle for less than we deserve. They talk about what it looks like to finally choose yourself — to raise your standards, set boundaries when needed, and step fully into your worth.A big part of that growth centers around friendship. Lo challenges the cultural obsession with romantic partnership and the idea that “low-maintenance” friendships are something to strive for. Instead, he highlights how meaningful, emotionally present friendships can provide a deeper sense of fulfillment and support than many romantic relationships ever will — and how our loneliness epidemic ties back to neglecting those bonds.This episode is a reminder that there isn't one timeline or one definition of a full life. Whether you want marriage, kids, independence, or something entirely different, you are allowed to choose the life that fits you. It's honest, warm, empowering — and a call to stop settling for crumbs in love and in community.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
