Podcasts about teaching

I recently sat down with Steve Chen on his Boldin Your Money podcast for a wide-ranging conversation about evidence-based investing — and why it matters more than ever in a world of speculation, hype, and constant financial noise. We covered my early days as a stockbroker in the 1960s, the psychology that trips investors up in downturns, how low-cost index funds transformed personal finance, factor investing and small-cap value, and why younger investors are being pulled toward gambling-like behavior through apps, crypto, and prediction markets. Whether you're just starting out or planning for retirement, I think you'll find it time well spent.KEY TOPICS DISCUSSED• The difference between investing and speculation• Why staying the course is emotionally difficult• Wall Street incentives and investor behavior• The origins of index fund investing• Factor investing and small-cap value explained• Why diversification matters long term• Rebalancing strategies and portfolio management• Financial literacy and generational investing habits• Why gambling behavior is becoming normalized• How AI tools like ChatGPT and Claude are changing education• The psychology behind successful long-term investorsTIMESTAMPS00:00 Introduction02:55 Paul Merriman's start in investing05:20 Wall Street incentives and conflicts of interest08:35 Why investing is harder than it looks12:25 Investing vs speculation15:40 Why people panic during market crashes17:30 The psychology of staying the course19:10 Generational wealth and financial literacy23:40 The case for index funds28:45 Factor investing explained32:30 The four-fund portfolio strategy36:00 Rebalancing and long-term returns38:00 ChatGPT, Claude, and financial education42:15 Market valuations and investor behavior45:30 Building wealth intentionally49:00 Gambling culture and modern investing51:45 Teaching financial literacy to younger generations54:00 Final thoughts on long-term investingRESOURCES MENTIONEDPaul Merriman Foundation: https://www.paulmerriman.com/Try the Boldin Planner for free: https://go.boldin.com/podcasttep110Watch Video here- https://youtu.be/y_i5wrr_tfM

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260617dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion The LORD said to Moses, “Speak to the entire assembly of Israel and say to them: ‘Be holy because I, the LORD your God, am holy.'” Leviticus 19:1-2 Be Holy Have you ever achieved perfection? Making the perfect sales pitch. Baking the perfect pie. Earning the perfect grade. When you reach that goal, you get excited. You rejoice. You let others know that perfection has been achieved. But how long did it take you to achieve that perfection? How many mistakes did you make on the way? The Lord tells his people to be holy. In other words, be perfect. But he doesn’t say work your way to perfection. He says you are to be holy, right now, at this very moment, and then to keep being holy. Of course, you aren’t perfect. You make mistakes. You do things that are wrong. And as soon as you make one mistake or sin even in the most insignificant way, you are no longer perfect. You are unable to be holy even though God demands that you be holy. So, the Lord sent Jesus. Jesus was holy. He didn’t make any mistakes. He never sinned. He never did anything contrary to what God commands. Jesus lived a perfect life in his thoughts, his words, and in everything he did. Now Jesus gives that perfection to you. Even though you are not holy, Jesus makes you holy by giving you his perfect obedience to God’s laws and washing away your sins with his innocent blood. Through Jesus, you are able to be what you cannot achieve on your own. You are holy. Prayer: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, I confess that by nature I am not holy as you desire. Cleanse me of my sins with the blood of Jesus. Lead me to always thank and praise you for the holiness that you have given me through Jesus. Keep me faithful to him. Amen.

Every decision has a price tag, and most of us never stop to read it. In this episode, Dot and Cara sit with Luke 14 and get honest about the cost of following Jesus, the cost of our daily choices, and what we're quietly giving up when we say yes to the wrong things. From forgiving the unforgivable to waiting on a miracle you can't control, this conversation is for anyone who has ever felt the weight of a decision they couldn't quite make. Pull up a chair, grab your Bible, and lean in with us.Got a question about today's episode or something else you'd like to hear us talk about on the show? Let us know! Episode RecapIntro (00:00)Write this down: Luke 14:27-30, counting the cost of following Jesus (00:00)Cara introduces the theme: every decision carries a cost and a gain, and sometimes we only look at what we're losing (00:47)What does it actually cost to follow Jesus? Dot reflects on the moment she realized salvation was free but discipleship is not (01:40)Every decision costs something, even neutral ones, and the question is whether your yes is leading you toward what matters most (04:19)On forgiveness: it costs you something to withhold it, and it costs you something to give it. Which cost are you willing to carry? (07:50)Cara shares her word of the year, miracle, and what it means that the cost of the miracle she is waiting on is surrender (10:59)Dot on waiting: being still is one of the hardest and most costly things women are asked to do (12:07)Dr. Stanley's principle: "You reap what you sow, later than you sow, and more than you sow" (14:11)Dot gets practical: her daily practice of asking whether her yes is leading her toward what she loves most, and whether she could tell Jesus about it at the end of the day (21:49)Cara closes the loop: counting the cost is not about controlling outcomes. It is about being honest with yourself and with God about what each decision is actually taking from you (20:55)Are you interested in having Dot come and speak to your community?

For which one of you, when he wants to build a tower, does not first sit down and calculate the cost to see if he has enough to complete it? Otherwise, when he has laid a foundation and is not able to finish, all who observe it begin to ridicule him, saying, 'This man began to build and was not able to finish.'"

Isaiah 64:8Something everyone agrees on is the key in life is change. And it's not optional. Think about the last 10 years—you're not the same person, are you? In fact, your life today compared to then probably doesn't even resemble each other. That's because of change.

You're 15 minutes from the end of your presentation. And you're only halfway through your content. That sick feeling your audience has? That's not inspiration. That's overwhelm. In this solo episode of The Expert Edge, I break down the number one mistake speakers make when presenting to sell: over-teaching. You think you're giving value. Your audience thinks they just ate too much at an all-you-can-eat buffet and can't move. Here's the brutal truth: teaching more doesn't make people buy from you. It actually loses the sale. Most speakers don't realize the gap between what feels simple to them (because they're the expert) and what feels overwhelming to their audience (because they're experiencing it for the first time at your speed). This is the Expert's Dilemma. And it's costing you conversions. I walk through four core concepts that will transform how you structure your presentations: What you'll learn: → The Expert's Dilemma - Why what feels simple to you overwhelms your audience instantly → Stay above the Lose the Sale Line - The difference between concepts/stories (above) and tactics/how-tos (below) that kill conversions → Infusion selling beats content dumps - Why mixing speaking and selling together converts better than teaching for 45 minutes then selling for 5 → Balance the Brain - Mix left brain (logic, frameworks, stats) with right brain (stories, metaphors, emotions) for maximum impact → Why step-by-step tactics make people think they can do it alone (and leave your offer) Real insights from the episode: The all-you-can-eat buffet metaphor that explains exactly how your audience feels when you overteach How previous speakers going over time forced me to cut a 50-minute presentation by 20 minutes (and why this happens) Why being helpful + trying to prove credibility = recipe for over-teaching The imaginary "red line" that separates what sells from what loses the sale How confusion actually builds more credibility than complexity Why balance in your presentation design matters more than comprehensiveness The difference between a well-structured meal and the all-you-can-eat buffet experience How infusion selling lets your audience consume content without realizing you're selling   Join our next Speak to Convert Masterclass.

CRNA education has never been more demanding. As nurse anesthesia programs have evolved into rigorous 36-month doctoral programs, educators are seeing increasing levels of stress, anxiety, burnout, and mental health challenges among students. So how can faculty better support students while maintaining the high standards required of the profession? In this episode of Airway Exchange, hosts Nickie and Erin welcome Gerard Hogan, DNSc., APRN-BC, CRNA, FAANA, LtCol, USAF (ret.), psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, educator, and researcher, for an important conversation about resilience in nurse anesthesia education. Dr. Hogan discusses his research on resilience among nurse anesthesia residents and explains why resilience is a skill that can be taught, strengthened, and developed over time. Here's some of what you'll hear in this episode:

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260616dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion But we ought always to thank God for you, brothers and sisters loved by the Lord, because God chose you as firstfruits to be saved through the sanctifying work of the Spirit and through belief in the truth. He called you to this through our gospel, that you might share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. 2 Thessalonians 2:13-14 More Than Enough Today’s Bible passage provides the opportunity for you to give thanks for one of God's greatest blessings. He chose you to be saved! He rescued you from the curse of sin and the power of death. Salvation did not come about by your choice; it is completely the result of God's gracious choice. Your salvation is not a matter of chance; it is certain and true. For even before the creation of the world, in love God chose you to be his own. The Holy Spirit used the message of Jesus to turn you from unbelief to faith in Jesus as your Savior. And with that same gospel message, the Holy Spirit still preserves you in faith. Because of Jesus' perfect life and innocent death in your place, you stand before God as one of his holy people and are privileged to be an heir of eternal life. Believe what God has revealed to you in his Word. That’s the only true defense against the assaults to your faith. Keep going back to the Word of God because that’s where you meet Jesus. That’s where God tells you about his plans for you. He shows you his Son, Jesus, and how he saved you from hell. He uplifts you with his certain word that you will share in the glory of heaven—all because of Jesus. Indeed, this is more than enough reason to give thanks to God! Prayer: Dear God, I give you thanks for planning and carrying out my salvation through your Son, Jesus. Thank you for bringing me to faith in Jesus and leading me to trust him as my Savior from sin and death. Encourage me with your sure promise that the glory of heaven awaits me. Amen.

If private practice has felt harder lately, you're not imagining it. Caseloads can take longer to fill, marketing strategies that once worked may not be working the same way, and many therapists are carrying more anxiety about money than they were a few years ago. This week, I'm joined by Diane Webber, a coach in both Money Skills for Therapists and Money Skills for Group Practice Owners, to talk about how we've been responding to these shifts inside our own work. We share some of the changes we've made in our business, from changing our outward-facing name and restructuring programs to creating more community and bringing fresh energy onto the team. More than anything, this conversation is about what it looks like to stay present, curious, and responsive when the things you've relied on no longer work the way they used to.Ready to feel more calm and confident about your money? Do you feel confused, ashamed, or uncertain about your finances? Are you craving support to help shift your money mindset and transform your relationship with money? Are you ready to develop the skills and confidence you need to finally take control of your business finances and build a practice that actually takes care of you? If so, I'd love for you to join me for one of my free online workshops, designed specifically for private practice owners who feel stuck—whether it's mindset blocks, avoidance, or the technical side of managing money. In just one hour together, you'll learn practical tools, strategies, and next steps to move forward in your business (and your life) with clarity, intention, and ease. Click here to explore upcoming workshops and save your spot or register to get the replay.Responding to Shifts Without Blaming Yourself When something stops working in your practice, you might assume you've done something wrong. But often, that's not the case— it's that the market has changed, your clients' needs have shifted, or the offer, structure, or support system that once worked is ready to evolve. Diane and I talk about how helpful it can be to move from self-blame into curiosity. Instead of asking, “Why isn't this working anymore?” we can ask, “What is this showing me?” Adapting your practice doesn't mean you need to have all the answers right away. Small, thoughtful changes — like experimenting with new forms of support, rethinking your marketing, adjusting a program structure, or bringing in team members who help you see things differently can create a lot of clarity over time. Small Experiments Beat Waiting for Certainty Meaningful change in your practice can come from a series of small decisions day by day rather than one major breakthrough. (00:03:13) Changes in therapy practices (00:08:37) Finding authentic practice direction (00:12:17) Bringing in new team energy (00:15:23) Teaching financial literacy for therapists (00:18:33) Handling unexpected events gracefully (00:30:04) WhatsApp community for practice owners (00:32:39) Returning to a cohorted program model (00:36:34) High-touch support in a four-month program (00:39:15) Planning programs and client schedules (00:42:32) The importance of taking sabbaticals You Don't Have to Figure Out Your Next Chapter Alone So many of the changes we've made this year have come from wanting more connection, support, and clarity. As a business owner, it's easy to believe you need to figure everything out on your own. But growth is often more sustainable when you allow yourself to receive support. That support can come through coaching, community, trusted colleagues, or a stronger team. It can also come from taking a step back, getting honest about what is and isn't working, and being open to making the shifts that become apparent once you have a little more perspective.

About Linzy Bonham: Linzy Bonham is a therapist turned money coach who helps private practice owners and health professionals feel calm, confident, and in control of their finances through her podcast, free workshops and comprehensive programs: Money Skills for Therapists and Money Skills for Group Practice Owners. It all started when she saw her extremely skilled colleagues struggle with the money side of business. Some had even left private practice, or were avoiding starting one, because managing finances was just too stressful. So Linzy set out to support helpers and healers with developing peace of mind about their money. Since so many were never taught money skills, she focuses on the “how” of making the business side of private practice doable — and even super satisfying.

Acts 17:30The return of Jesus Christ is met with mixed emotions. For those who are ready there is a sense of comfort and anticipation. But for those who are not there is a mixture of confusion, intimidation, and—for a few—even fear.

Kids hear the word "respect" all the time, but hearing it and understanding it are two very different things. In this episode, Glyn Ann Townsend joins Chip to discuss how respect is taught through culture, consistency, and example, rather than endless lectures. They talk about why repetition eventually stops working, how school culture reinforces respectful behavior, and why alignment between parents and instructors is critical for developing strong character.

Host Khristen Massic isn't here for the same old song and dance about “refining a unit” when you don't even have units yet. This episode of The Secondary Teacher Podcast drills into what seasoned and new teachers alike often miss: when you sign up for a new class—voluntarily or not—your summer planning shouldn't be all about becoming a content expert overnight.There's so much pressure to spend your break cramming, reading, and binge-watching every tutorial, all to close the massive knowledge gap you think you have. The secondary classroom isn't forgiving of the “fake it till you make it” game either, especially when, like Massic, you're suddenly running a video production class with only a brief memory from a long-ago college course. Khristen Massic's first experience teaching video announcements was pure trial by fire: she'd barely dabbled in video but found herself responsible for a weekly broadcast that went out to students, teachers, and administrators. No hiding behind a closed classroom door—everyone was seeing her work, every single Friday.The mistake? Thinking content knowledge is your number one asset. That's the instinct, but it's dead wrong. Massic lays it out—teachers already have their most valuable asset, and they use it every single day: the ability to build structure. That core teacher skill is what carries you when you're writing curriculum on the fly for an emerging technology course, a new elective, or any time you're teaching outside your comfort zone.Instead of panicking about unfamiliar content, teachers in the secondary classroom should put their energy into building the container first. Map out what a typical week looks like, what your routines will be, the predictable flows that give students (and you) something to latch onto. For Massic, that meant a strict seven-minute weekly show format: clear segments, breaks, and timing anchored by the bell schedule. Maybe your new course has a project cycle, or it's rooted in recurring classroom routines—start there, and let the content grow inside that container.Multi-prep teachers know all too well how easy it is to get sucked into the comparison trap—measuring your rough draft against the teacher before you. Host Khristen Massic hits this hard: the teacher you think had it all together also had a first year, with messy starts and broken routines. The only trap is trying to build what worked for someone else instead of what makes sense for the way you teach. Structure first, content second, and—no matter what—comparison never.The biggest teacher tip here? Identify what routines or project formats you already use that could transfer to your new prep. Don't think you're starting from scratch. You bring years of classroom management, learning sequence design, and secondary classroom experience—those are portable and powerful. Spend 10 minutes sketching what a week in the new class could feel like before losing 40 hours to deep-dive research. The work life balance and sanity you save will pay off all year.Massic doesn't sugarcoat it: you don't need to be the 24/7 expert before that first bell in August. Model real-world problem solving by learning alongside your students. Some of the most powerful moments come when you're honest enough to say, “I'm not sure—let's figure it out together.” What you really need, especially when managing multiple preps, is to be the most structured person in the room. That's what your students will remember.For every secondary teacher staring down a new course—eager, terrified, or both—this is your permission slip to let content expertise take a back seat. Build the repeatable framework, set your constraints, and let everything else fall in around it. Your experienced teacher instincts already know how to create classroom routines and structure; trust them. This is how you make new content manageable, authentic, and less overwhelming.So don't lose your summer falling into the rabbit hole of tutorials. Build the week. Build your class period flow. Give your students (and yourself) something sturdy to hold onto while you tackle whatever content the new year throws at you.Teach, adapt, repeat. Leave the comparison at the door. Now get out there—secondary classrooms won't know what hit them.

Episode 203: Summer Outdoor Classroom Ideas Across Four Teaching GardensSummer brings a powerful shift in the outdoor classroom—but many educators find themselves wondering how to move beyond maintenance into intentional, meaningful outdoor learning.In this episode, we explore how to reimagine your outdoor classroom for summer through four “teaching gardens” that support curiosity, exploration, and nature-based learning.Rather than treating the outdoor space as one general area, this episode introduces a framework for designing outdoor environments that reflect the richness of the summer season.We explore four teaching garden lenses:

In this conversation, she shares the unexpected story of how she ended up helping Beyoncé learn to dance in heels, along with the lessons she's learned from decades of working in the industry.

Aisha also opens up about burnout, losing her love for dance, finding it again through teaching, and the realities of navigating a constantly changing industry. From unforgettable stories on stage to practical insights on artistry, professionalism, and longevity, this episode offers a candid look at what it takes to grow not only as a dancer, but as a performer and person.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260615dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion [Jesus said] “Do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? . . . Your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” Matthew 6:25,32-33 Why Worry? Aren’t five-year-olds silly? Sometimes they get upset over such insignificant things. They cry because they can’t find their teddy bear or because their favorite television show is over. As adults, we can only shake our heads at these silly little creatures who allow themselves to become miserable over such minor problems. It makes one wonder how our heavenly Father’s head must shake when he watches over us. We worry about this. We worry about that. Such silliness. Jesus commands us not to worry. He is very serious about it because he knows that our heavenly Father does more than shake his head at our worrying. He shakes his fist. Worrying angers God because when we worry we are telling our Father that we don’t trust him to take care of us. Thank God that Jesus did more than command us not to worry. He endured his Father’s anger at our sinful worrying. He took the punishment that should have been ours, so we don’t have to worry about God being angry at us. We don't have to worry about ANYTHING. Your Father loves you. He wants what is best for you. He knows what is best for you. Instead of worrying about things that you need for life, look to your Father in heaven, who promises to provide for you. The longer you linger in his Word, the more you will say to yourself, “What was I worried about? How silly!” Prayer: Heavenly Father, forgive me for the many times I fail to trust in your love and provision. Give me eyes that look to you for help in every need. Give me ears to hear the promises found in your Word. Give me a heart to trust that you are all I need and that I need never worry. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

Pastor Luke Simmons continues our new series, “How to Pray,” by walking slowly through the simple yet deep opening of the Lord's Prayer: “Our Father in heaven.”In this message, Luke explores what it means that God invites us to relate to Him as Father, how that identity shapes our status and confidence before Him, and why understanding God as Father can make prayer feel more natural and less forced.You'll also hear practical help on “praying like a child”—coming to God with honesty, boldness, and dependence in everyday life. This sermon is based in Matthew 6:9 and connects to themes from passages like John 1, Galatians 4, Ephesians 1, and Matthew 6.*HOW TO FIND US**SUBSCRIBE TO OUR YouTube CHANNEL: https://www.youtube.com/@IronwoodChurchAZFACEBOOK   / ironwoodchurchaz  INSTAGRAM   / ironwood.church  WEBSITE https://www.ironwoodchurch.org/

Teaching from the Word of God.

Alexander the Great was so named because of his extraordinary military and political leadership as he conquered and dominated much of the known world. Even today we tend to associate greatness with power, wealth, influence, and worldly success. But Jesus points us to a much different path to greatness in the spiritual life and in church leadership. Effective church leaders must lay aside personal ambition, self-serving agendas, and the desire to rule over others and serve others in love, humility, and complete reliance upon the grace of God.

The Sermon on the Mount: More Than You Think | Matthew 5 | Family Church Matthew Chapter 5 contains some of the most well-known words Jesus ever spoke — and some of the most misunderstood. In this message, our guest speaker walks us through the entire chapter, verse by verse, unpacking what Jesus was really saying in the Beatitudes, in His teachings on murder, adultery, divorce, oaths, and loving your enemies. Here's what most people miss: Jesus wasn't coming to get rid of the Old Testament. He came to complete it — to be the lens through which all of it finally makes sense. And when you read Matthew 5 through that lens, everything shifts. In this message you'll discover: What "poor in spirit" and "blessed are those who mourn" actually mean Why the hunger and thirst Jesus talks about is nothing like a mid-afternoon snack craving How Jesus raises the bar from action to heart — and why that's actually good news What the Sermon on the Mount has to say about your marriage Why "love your enemies" is the most radical thing Jesus ever said This is part of our ongoing series reading through the book of Matthew together — because the Bible is enough.

In this sermon, guest speaker Pastor Tony Crombie teaches on the topic of Active Faith. Teaching out of James 2 he teaches on how our motives influence our actions and the rightness of the actions. Active faith is not determined by us, but rather by God and it is a continuous choice to keep acting in the way God commands. Active Faith often comes with effort and cost. So, learn about all this and more in order to better have an Active Faith.

Every patient is the protagonist in their own story. When we open our hearts to their narratives, we see ourselves reflected in them. We are invigorated to connect with the patients we are accompanying on their healing path, to bring forth our best selves. We heal, from our hearts to their hearts. Emily S. Hagen and Sari Hart reflect on a patient who reminded them that human relationships are at the heart of the healing experience.

Teaching gives you a lot of opportunities to look back and wish you'd done it differently, and most of us carry those regrets way longer than we need to. In this episode, I'm sharing what I learned from Daniel Pink's book The Power of Regret: How Looking Backward Moves Us Forward, and how his research applies to the unique kind of regret that teachers carry.  I'll walk you through the four categories of regret most people have, the difference between "if only" and "at least" thinking, and a three-step process for actually processing a regret instead of just ruminating on it at 2 a.m. I'll also share the line from Pink's book that hit me hardest, the one that completely changed how I think about looking back: If you know what you truly regret, you know what you truly value.  Your regrets aren't proof you've failed this year. They're a map of what you care about. If you've been carrying something from this school year and you're not sure what to do with it, this episode is for you.
