In this episode of The Capital Raiser Show, Richard C. Wilson sits down with Marcus Ridgway, founder of F6 Partners and co-founder of Invitation Homes, for a fireside chat on attracting institutional capital at scale, building frameworks that earn the trust of the world's largest investors, and why extreme conservatism - not big risk - is what created one of the most impressive real estate track records in the country. Marcus shares how building institutional-grade systems from day one led to Blackstone wiring $35 million before a single document was signed, and how they ultimately scaled that relationship to $1 billion - all because the architecture, software, and reporting were airtight from the start. The conversation dives into risk mitigation frameworks, optionality as an insurance policy against volatility, the mindset shift from hustle to architecture, what separates centimillionaires from founders who never scale, and why Marcus believes fat tail risk is the defining challenge facing every investor in the years ahead. Topics covered include: Securing $4 billion from Blackstone and taking Invitation Homes public on the NYSE Why institutional investors never look at IRR - only downside risk Building architecture that creates returns vs. relying on hustle to create results Why exactness and transparency with institutional capital is non-negotiable Creating an investment committee even for a single house purchase How a cold call from an industry researcher led directly to Blackstone Optionality as an insurance policy against volatility Returning $200 million to an investor when the strategy no longer made sense Offshoring decisions so the business doesn't depend on one person Separating ego and identity from outcomes as a founder Student housing and senior housing as the top opportunities right now Fat tail risk - why black swan events are increasing in frequency and what to do about it How conservative structuring, not big bets, built a billion-dollar platform The Capital Raiser Show brings together billionaire investors, family offices, elite entrepreneurs, and capital allocators to discuss investing, scaling, strategic growth, and wealth creation.

Along with two other students, Maeve Halligan founded the Cambridge University Society of Women, an association for female students at the university, “providing a place for free speech, discussion, and association among women.” You would think such a thing wouldn't be controversial in these modern times, but of course it was, because these young women don't believe that men are women. A month ago, her speech at the Cambridge Union went viral. Meghan Murphy speaks with Maeve about her experience and why she founded the society. The Same Drugs is on X @thesamedrugs_.

SUMMARY In this episode of Whistlekick Martial Arts Radio, host Jeremy Lesniak speaks with Nick Vernon, who shares his extensive journey in martial arts, starting from Tae Kwon Do and transitioning through various styles. They discuss the importance of cross-training, the significance of kata, and how Nick's experiences in the military and with notable martial artists have shaped his approach to training. The conversation emphasizes the integration of different techniques and the lifelong commitment to learning in martial arts. In this conversation, Nick discusses his unique approach to martial arts training, focusing on the purpose and progression of forms, the importance of grappling before striking, and the role of kata in developing practical skills. He emphasizes a student-centric methodology, modular training, and the need for a conceptual understanding of techniques rather than rigid adherence to traditional structures. The discussion also touches on the evaluation of students, the significance of fundamentals, and the philosophical aspects of martial arts practice. TAKEAWAYS Nick Vernon has a rich background in martial arts, starting in Tae Kwon Do. He transitioned from ITF to other martial arts styles throughout his journey. Nick's training has been influenced by notable martial artists and instructors. He values the integration of different martial arts techniques. Nick's experiences in the military shaped his martial arts training. He believes in the importance of kata in martial arts practice. Nick teaches a selective number of kata to his students. His approach to martial arts is a blend of traditional and practical techniques. Forms serve a purpose and should be chosen intentionally. Teaching should start with grappling to build a foundation. Kata is a training tool, not just a performance metric. Testing should be based on practical application, not arbitrary standards. Fundamentals are core concepts that can be applied at various levels. A modular training approach allows students to explore their interests. Strikes and blocks are functions of the same techniques. Stances are for training posture, not static positions. Student input in training modules enhances engagement and retention. Cultural influences shape martial arts practices, but innovation is essential.

Students share powerful testimonies from their lake trip, reflecting on life-changing moments, spiritual growth, and how God moved in unforgettable ways throughout camp together.
What do you do when you genuinely love Jesus but continue to struggle with the same sin?In this episode of Student of Life, we look beyond behavior and into the deeper battle taking place within the heart. Using pornography as a primary example—but recognizing it isn't the only hidden struggle—we explore how shame, isolation, and repeated patterns can keep us trapped, and why God's invitation has always been to bring darkness into the light.We'll talk about confession, repentance, accountability, biblical community, and the ways God often uses His Word, His Spirit, His people, and wise counsel together in the process of transformation. Because the goal of the Christian life isn't simply to stop one behavior. It's to become more like Christ.
AABP Executive Director Dr. Fred Gingrich is joined by Lisa Greenhill, Chief Organizational Health Officer for the American Association of Veterinary Medical Colleges (AAVMC). This episode of Have You Herd is sponsored by Boehringer Ingelheim and Bovikalk. Is your fresh cow calcium supplement protecting dairy cows' full potential? BOVIKALC® bolus contains the two critical forms of calcium for immediate and lasting performance with no filler ingredients. For more than 20 years, BOVIKALC has consistently delivered what fresh cows need—right when they need it most. Talk to your Boehringer Ingelheim representative to see why BOVIKALC boluses are designed for milking greatness. Find out more information about BOVIKALC boluses at this link. Enrollment at veterinary schools has doubled over the last 20 years and currently there are approximately 17,000 veterinary students in U.S. schools and another 3000-4000 U.S. students in foreign schools. Demographics of students has changes during that time period as well with females comprising 86% of students and 30% of students are non-white. Students now fill out a common application and each student applies to 5-6 schools. The national applicant:seat ratio is currently 2.4 but each institution applicant:seat ratio varies. Greenhill discusses the gender disparity in veterinary schools and explains that the issues of fewer men in veterinary schools is due to fewer men obtaining a bachelor's degree. Only 37% of men in the U.S. complete a bachelor's degree compared to nearly half of women. Men also take longer to complete the degree compared to women. Students from rural communities comprise about 20% of veterinary students. AABP membership data indicate that 70% of our members grew up in rural communities. Nationally, 23% of adults in rural communities have a bachelor's degree or higher. Greenhill discusses some of the challenges and barriers for students in rural communities to seek out a veterinary education including changes to loan regulations and Pell Grants, lack of educational opportunities, and evaluation of rural mixed animal versus urban companion animal experiences.

Student & Leader Testimonies from Lakeside Youth Camp 2026
AI is changing the way we work, but it won't solve the leadership and culture problems that already exist inside an organization. In this episode of Student of Life, I explore why AI is better understood as an accelerator than a solution. Healthy teams often leverage it to create even greater value, while unhealthy systems simply become more visible.We'll talk about leadership, stewardship, organizational health, and why technology can't replace trust, clarity, ownership, or wise decision-making. Whether you lead a business, a ministry, or a team, the principles remain the same: healthy leadership builds healthy systems, and healthy systems are what allow tools like AI to reach their full potential.

What happens when one of the most popular carry pistols in America gets a new magazine that might change the conversation? In this episode of Student of the Gun, Paul and Jarrad dig into the primacy effect, Glock's new steel magazines for the 43X and 48, and why "new and improved" doesn't always mean what the internet thinks it means. From the debate over whether the Glock 19 is "dead" to the bigger lessons hidden inside firearms training, this episode connects gear, psychology, and real-world performance in a way that will make you rethink how shooters are taught, and what they remember first. Along the way, you'll hear sharp observations about training scars, habit formation, and why the first lesson can shape everything that follows. If you care about concealed carry, firearms instruction, or simply understanding why some ideas stick harder than others, this is an episode worth your time.

How many dreams have you put on hold because you thought you needed to know more, be more, or become more before you were ready?In this episode, I'm sharing a lesson that began with a simple (well intentioned) question my dad asked me after I proudly brought home a 98% on a test - A question that would shape the belief that anything less than perfect isn't enough.Today, we're challenging that belief.I'm sharing the five things that "B+ students" understand that can completely change the way you approach your life, your work, your purpose, and your dreams. This isn't about settling for less. It's about choosing courage over perfection, participation over procrastination, and impact over impressing people.If you've been waiting for the perfect moment to start something meaningful, this episode is your reminder that the world doesn't need you to be perfect—it needs you to show up.In this episode, we'll explore:Why perfection keeps so many women stuckThe difference between excellence and perfectionWhy messy action creates clarityHow mistakes become your greatest teachersWhy contribution will always matter more than perfectionThe question that might finally help you stop waitingIf this conversation resonated with you, I'd love to invite you to my free Launchpad Masterclass, where I'll show you how to take the first step toward meaningful work that creates real impact—without waiting until you feel "ready."✨ Join here: melodypourmoradi.com/launchpadIf you enjoyed this episode, please share it with someone who needs the reminder, and if you haven't already, leaving a review is one of the most meaningful ways you can support the show.Thank you for being here.

Should you be financially secure before getting married?
A student's zip code should not decide their future. Penelope Barton built a school in 70 countries to prove it.Penelope is the CEO of Crimson Global Academy and co-founder of Crimson Academies, a group of five schools serving students from age five through eighteen, online and in person. Last year her team ran 144,000 classes. Some of her students learn from boats, connected by satellite internet.She grew up in rural New Zealand before the internet, where one teacher covered English, math, and science, and you got whoever you got. That is the problem she has spent six years dismantling.We talk about how she scaled it: starting with two years of high school and one curriculum, then adding learning modes, ages, and countries as students asked for them. She places kids by ability, not age. Seven-year-olds are building apps. A venture capital firm is funding five of her seniors to launch real businesses before graduation. And she just opened a tuition-free school funded directly by the New Zealand government, which took three years of proving results first.She also says something most founders will recognize: the hardest thing she manages is not scale or regulation. It is her own impatience.Chapters:

In today's Teaching Middle School ELA podcast episode, Your next writing unit might not be “too hard” or “too time-consuming” at all. The real problem could be the way we use model essays and the way we test our writing prompts before students ever touch the page.We start with a candid question many middle school ELA teachers are afraid to answer: do you dread teaching writing? If you've ever felt your stomach drop when a writing unit shows up in the plan book, you're not alone. Between 47-minute class periods, huge stacks of essays, and students who struggle to write a clear paragraph, it can feel like you're working twice as hard for the same results.If you want to go deeper, join our FREE 3 - Day writing workshop from July 21st to the 23rd at https://www.ebteacher.com/writing-workshop. Listen now, then subscribe, share with an ELA teacher friend, and leave a review so more teachers can take back their time.

He is currently working on questions about Moral Progress, which include conceptual ("what is moral and social progress?"), causal ("what sorts of mechanisms drive progress?"), and policy-related questions ("how do we promote progress?") from an interdisciplinary perspective. In this episode, we talk about Rafael's Substack post “Being "Woke" is good, actually”. We discuss what the term “woke” means, anti-woke radicalization, whether woke is good, and how the woke can go too far. We talk about non-ideal moral theory, psychological and materialist theories of moral progress. Finally, we discuss the link between moral progressand wokeism.--A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, BERNARDO SEIXAS, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, YANICK PUNTER, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, HEDIN BRØNNER, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ALEX CHAU, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

In this episode, Augustine sits down with Rafia Islam, a midwife from Bangladesh with eight years of experience spanning refugee camps, mentorship roles, and one of Dhaka's busiest labor wards. Rafia walks us through her training, her path from data collector to midwife, and what a 12-hour night shift with 13 deliveries actually looks like.The conversation turns to the realities shaping birth in Bangladesh: a cesarean rate as high as 80% in some private hospitals, the financial incentives driving unnecessary surgery, and the coercion many families face in the delivery room. Rafia also shares why midwives are legally barred from home birth in Bangladesh, how the country's neonatal mortality rate has dropped dramatically since 2000, and a harrowing memory of delivering a baby during a hospital fire.This is a candid look at what it means to fight for autonomous, respected midwifery care in a system still learning what a midwife is for — and a reminder that no matter where you practice, the work of holding space for birth looks remarkably the same.
A @Christadelphians Video: **YouTube Summary/Description**In this thought-provoking and wonderfully expositional study, Bible student Roger Lewis joins us to uncover the remarkable account of Achsah – Caleb's daughter. Why did she ask for a field? And what does her bold faith reveal about our own spiritual journey? Set against the backdrop of Judges chapter 1 – a chapter defined by Israel's failure to drive out the Canaanites – Achsah shines as an outstanding example of wholehearted devotion. Through careful, verse‑by‑verse analysis, we discover how Caleb's test for a suitor, Othniel's victory, and Achsah's determined request for “upper and nether springs” point to profound lessons about our promised inheritance. This is an insightful and revealing study that will challenge and inspire you to seek God's blessings with the same fearless, solution‑focused spirit.**Chapters**00:00 – Introduction & Setting the Context 04:00 – Why Ask Questions?

What happens when students step away from the constant noise of social media, academic pressure, and cultural confusion? In this episode, Kasey Leander sits down with Dustin Jizmejian, Senior Director of Conferences and Events at Summit Ministries, to explore why immersive Christian experiences can have a lasting impact on a student's faith, worldview, and purpose. Today's students are more connected than ever, yet many feel increasingly anxious, isolated, and uncertain about what is true. Dustin explains why intentionally stepping away from everyday distractions creates space for meaningful conversations, authentic community, and a deeper encounter with God. Together, they discuss how Scripture shapes our understanding of retreat, discipleship, and spiritual formation—and why Christian conferences remain one of the most effective ways to equip young people with a biblical worldview. Whether you're a parent, grandparent, youth pastor, educator, or student, this conversation will encourage you to think differently about the power of intentional discipleship and investing in the next generation. In this episode: Why are students more anxious, isolated, and distracted than ever How constant digital noise shapes identity and faith Why stepping away creates room for spiritual growth What the Bible teaches about retreat, community, and discipleship How Summit's student conferences help young people build a resilient biblical worldview Stories of students whose lives were transformed through Summit Why lasting faith is often formed through an immersive Christian community How parents and churches can better prepare students for today's culture For more than 60 years, Summit Ministries has equipped thousands of students to think critically, evaluate competing worldviews, and embrace God's truth with confidence. Through two-week summer conferences and other immersive programs, students engage with leading Christian scholars, build lifelong friendships, ask honest questions, and develop a faith that can withstand today's cultural challenges. If you want to help the student in your life grow in wisdom, confidence, and a biblical worldview, there's no better place to start. Learn more or register at Summit.org.

When colleges and universities think about student well-being, the conversation often begins and ends with counseling centers. But what if student well-being is much broader than mental health services alone? In this episode of On Campus, Dr. Maithreyi Gopalan, Associate Professor at the University of Oregon, for a discussion about how institutions can build a campus-wide approach to student well-being by focusing on belonging, connection, and student flourishing. Based on her research, Dr. Gopalan explains why a student's sense of belonging is strongly connected to persistence, graduation, academic success, and mental health outcomes. The conversation explores practical strategies for higher education leaders, including measuring belonging as an institutional outcome, conducting regular student pulse checks, strengthening advising and first-year experiences, and creating meaningful connections throughout the student journey. Dr. Gopalan also discusses the role faculty play as "first responders" in supporting students, the importance of equity-centered well-being initiatives, and why institutions must move beyond reactive approaches to create environments where all students can thrive. Whether you're a student affairs professional, faculty member, administrator, or higher education leader, this episode offers research-based insights for building a more supportive and successful campus community.

Host Khristen Massic blows up the myth that every bit of student work ought to wind up in the gradebook. The real secret? Knowing the true purpose of classroom practice and how it can actually slash your workload if you get it right.Here's the trap most of us step right into: treating student work as assessment from day one. Maybe it's paranoia about accountability, or just survival mode when you're teaching multiple preps. As Khristen points out, she lived it—every worksheet, every assignment, all dutifully graded. The problem? The gradebook started filling up with evidence of where students started, not where they actually landed. No wonder the stress piles on and the grades don't reflect real learning.The better way: respect what the practice phase is really about. This isn't another box to check or a quick run-through before the “real” work. This is feedback time—for students and for you. Khristen shares how ditching the gradebook (at least for practice tasks) brought instant clarity. When students have room to make mistakes and learn from them, they stop worrying about failing and start owning their learning. It's a small shift that can pay off in both student confidence and in real work life balance for teachers.What does better practice look like in a secondary classroom? It's students talking through a problem, testing ideas, comparing results, and yes, making mistakes on purpose. Khristen gives the example from her 3D printing unit: instead of having students print one item and wait for a grade, she sets up activities where they tweak settings, debate why their prints turned out differently, and try again—without the immediate pressure of a score. The result? More curiosity, more growth, a lot less wasted time.One of Khristen's biggest takeaways: Don't grade practice. Instead, make sure every practice task provides feedback students can use right away. The moment students know what they need to fix, while they still have time to fix it, is where real learning happens. And for teachers, it's a massive grading workload reducer—especially essential if you're juggling three, four, or even five preps and trying to keep your head above water.The episode digs into feedback vs. delayed feedback. If you're the kind of teacher who's ever wondered, “Do students really learn from my comments if they only see them after we've moved on?”—you're not alone. Feedback after grading isn't feedback; it's just information too late to matter. Practice time is where you want those teachable moments, not after the fact. This is one of those teacher tips that makes a legitimate difference.This approach isn't just for the shiny, over-achieving classrooms, either. It's a gamechanger for every teacher battling the constant grind, where every new paper to grade is one more hour you don't have. By making feedback central to your practice phase—and letting go of the pressure to grade every misstep—you create more time to do what actually helps students learn.If you're a middle or high school teacher stuck in the grade-everything hamster wheel, or a multi-prep teacher drowning in stacks of assignments, this episode will speak straight to your soul. Rethink what happens before assessment. Give students the honest freedom to practice, fumble, get feedback, and revise—without a grade attached every time. You might just find both your classroom routines and your own sanity taking a turn for the better.Ready to do less but accomplish more? Start by asking one powerful question before you lock in your next lesson plan: Where does the feedback happen? If you can answer that clearly, you're already ahead of the game.Teach like your gradebook doesn't own you—because it doesn't.

This week, Carla and Dex catch up on everything from spontaneous adventures and Puerto Rico reflections to the conversations that have everyone talking online. What starts with stories about swan boats, bingo halls, and self-driving cars quickly turns into a deeper conversation about motherhood, friendship, financial security, and why adulthood keeps forcing us to redefine what support really looks like. The episode explores whether women should be financially compensated for pregnancy, the rising maternal mortality crisis impacting Black women, and the reality that bringing children into the world still comes with unequal risks. They also unpack new student loan changes, share thoughts on the true cost of maintaining friendships in your 30s, and discuss how relationships naturally evolve without always needing to end in conflict. Dex also opens up about parenting a child with autism while reacting to the viral story of an 11-year-old boy who independently ordered an Uber to the airport because he wanted to fly to Japan. The conversation becomes a reminder of both the incredible capabilities of autistic children and the unique challenges their families navigate every day. As always, the episode balances humor with honesty, mixing viral stories, personal experiences, and thoughtful conversations about growing up, growing apart, and figuring out life as you go.

This week on Democracy Dialogues, Frances Cayton speaks with four experts on Polish politics about the success of Poland's opposition coalition in 2023, and the headwinds that democracy continues to face today. What challenges do parties and civil society face in building pro-democracy electoral coalitions? If victorious, how do these challenges affect post-election governance and efforts at pursuing democratic renewal? This episode brings together politicians, political scientists, and civil society leaders who each played a critical role in the 2023 elections to examine what made Poland's pro-democracy mobilization possible, the gains the 2023 coalition has achieved since entering power, and the challenges it continues to face in pursuing democratic renewal.This episode was originally recorded as a part of the Lessons from Global Democratic Resistance panel series. The series brings together frontline activists, civic leaders, institutional actors, and field‑informed scholars to examine how democratic actors have resisted, responded to, and learned from democratic backsliding across countries.

We've turned a SKEPTIC with serious concerns into a RAVING FAN who is CRUSHING IT! The backstory: A few months ago I posted in invitation in our large Facebook group inviting ANY SKEPTICS to please step forward. I wanted anyone who had "heard bad things" about being an Amazon reseller. The scarier the stories the better! I wanted a true skeptic who didn't want to get into Amazon reselling because they had a lot of big questions and had heard a lot of scary things about the business. I found a volunteer and interviewed him on this show about 9 months ago (link in show notes). Jump forward to today, and he's CRUSHING IT and LOVING the business! His most recent month he did $35K at 15% net margin from his 3Pmercury ASINs. As with many other students are recently saying, he's "finding more profitable inventory than I can possibly invest in". He loves and is using 3PMercury and MSP (https://3pmercury.com/friends / SilentJim.com/msp), so we also have on the show today the founder of MSP, Ido Friedman This is an episode that's sure to inspire!
