Stephanie Smith spent a year trying to make her health coaching business work. She had clients here and there, tried different offers, and tested different messaging. But the income never matched the effort. So she went back to her job as a pharmacist. And somehow, that was the turning point. Without the financial pressure on her business, she got laser-focused. She stopped spending weeks on Instagram reels and online courses. She started doing the things that actually moved the needle: narrowing her niche, refining her offer, getting on the phone with people who needed her. By January of this year, she earned in one month what she had made in health coaching for the entire previous year. We talk about: The counterintuitive reason her full-time job helped her coaching business grow How she found her niche inside a very specific professional community The direct outreach strategy that has never once gotten a no Why she stopped offering group programs and went all-in on high-ticket 1:1 The mindset shift that changed how she shows up every single day If your health coaching business feels like it's going nowhere, this one is for you. Because Stephanie isn't some overnight success story. She's someone who kept showing up, stayed willing to start over, and finally found what works.

AI permeates K-12 education, but the rush to adopt new tools often bypasses critical questions about equity, bias, and human connection. On this episode of Trending in Education, host Mike Palmer sits down with Stephanie Smith Budhai and Marie K. Heath, co-authors of the new book Critical AI in K-12 Classrooms: A Practical Guide for Cultivating Justice and Joy. Together, they dismantle the "myth of inevitability" surrounding EdTech and explore how educators can reclaim agency in the face of rapid technological change with AI. From the historical resistance of Sojourner Truth to the concept of the classroom as a "Home Place," the conversation offers a refreshing, techno-skeptical framework that prioritizes student flourishing over big tech's framing. Key Takeaways: Reframing the Narrative: Why "Justice and Joy" must remain central to education, ensuring schools are spaces of affirmation rather than just sites of data extraction. The "Home Place" Concept: How bell hooks' notion of a "Home Place" helps teachers create safe harbors where students can critically interrogate harmful AI outputs and resist standardized bias. Sojourner Truth as Metaphor: A look at how Sojourner Truth co-opted and subverted the cartes de visites photography of her day to fund abolition—and how modern students and educators can similarly "sell the shadow to support the substance". Pedagogies of Resistance: An overview of culturally sustaining, fugitive, and abolitionist pedagogies that equip teachers to challenge oppressive structures within AI and educational technology. The Four Ps of Action: Practical steps for moving forward through Personal, Professional, Pedagogical, and Participatory action. Why You Should Listen: This conversation moves beyond the basic "how-to" of generative AI tools. Instead, it tackles the moral and ethical dimensions of bringing powerful, often biased technologies into the classroom. If you are an educator, administrator, or parent looking for a way to navigate the AI hype with your values intact, this episode provides the historical context and practical strategies needed to foster true digital agency.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! For Stephanie Smith, childhood wasn't defined by toys or bedtime stories—it was defined by shadows. The house her family called home was alive with something unseen, something that moved through rooms, whispered her name, and filled every night with dread. But when she tried to talk about it, her parents brushed it off, desperate to protect her from the truth: their home was haunted. Years later, Stephanie would learn just how real those fears were. One terrifying night, the haunting escalated beyond denial—forcing her and her mother to flee the house in pure fear. Whatever was inside had made its message clear: get out. That experience would change Stephanie's life forever. Instead of running from the paranormal, she chose to confront it. As an adult, she became a paranormal investigator, determined to uncover the truths that once terrified her—and to help others understand the forces she grew up with. Today on The Grave Talks, Stephanie Smith shares her story of fear, awakening, and empowerment. It's proof that the things that haunt us as children can shape the paths we take as adults—and that sometimes, facing the darkness is the only way to take back control. This is Part Two of our conversation. #TheGraveTalks #RealGhostStories #TrueGhostStory #HauntedChildhood #ParanormalInvestigator #StephanieSmith #HauntedHouse #ParanormalEncounters #GhostStories #SupernaturalPodcast Love real ghost stories?
