In this episode of the Puppy Training Podcast, Amy from BAXTER & Bella explores one of the most underrated—but life-changing—skills you can teach your dog: how to do nothing.From understanding what “settling” really means to learning how to train calmness step-by-step, Amy breaks down the process of helping your dog relax on cue. You'll hear practical tips for teaching your pup to rest calmly at your feet, wait patiently in real-life settings, and develop emotional balance in an often overstimulating world.Plus, Amy shares common pitfalls to avoid, like accidentally rewarding excitement, expecting too much too soon, or turning “settle” into a correction rather than a cue for relaxation.Whether you have a high-energy puppy or an easily overstimulated adult dog, this episode will help you create a calmer, happier home—one peaceful moment at a time.

Simon Cullen + Danny Oppenheimer help us rethink student attendance policies toward deeper engagement and learning on episode 591 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast. Quotes from the episode There's a lot of evidence that coming to class is one of the best things a student can do to facilitate their learning and performance in class. -Danny Oppenheimer You can make students attend, and most faculty do. They set attendance as mandatory. And then students attend and they learn because they attend. But they also hate you, and they hate the subject and they hate everything to do with the class. -Danny Oppenheimer If you give people choices, sometimes they make bad choices. Scaffolding choices can help people make choices that actually align with their preferences more effectively. -Danny Oppenheimer Students love being treated like adults. They love having choice. Everybody loves having choice. People don't like other people telling them what to do. -Danny Oppenheimer In some sense students have a preference to attend class. And in some sense they have a preference to not attend class. Those preferences can coexist in some way. -Simon Cullen Resources Choosing to learn: The importance of student autonomy in higher education, by Simon Cullen and Daniel Oppenheimer Are we overlooking the power of autonomy when it comes to motivating students? by Danny Oppenheimer Consequences of Erudite Vernacular Utilized Irrespective of Necessity: Problems with Using Long Words Needlessly, by Daniel M.

In this candid father-son episode of the Dad Edge Podcast, I sit down once again with my son Ethan for a real-time look at what growth, struggle, and emotional awareness look like in the life of a young man. We dive into why ownership is key when navigating life's challenges, how to catch yourself when falling into patterns of blame, and what it takes to shift your state when your mindset is working against you.   This is one of those conversations where nothing is sugarcoated. Ethan opens up about areas where he's felt “off,” what he's learned from coaching conversations, and how choosing personal responsibility over defensiveness continues to shape his confidence and leadership.     TIMELINE SUMMARY [0:00] - Welcoming Ethan back for another check-in [1:47] - Recognizing emotional off days and calling them out honestly [3:20] - How state, story, and strategy shape our reality [5:01] - Catching the victim mindset and flipping the script [7:14] - Owning mistakes vs. falling into blame or excuses [9:28] - Ethan on noticing his tone and making intentional corrections [11:03] - Coaching tools that help interrupt negative spirals [13:24] - The power of “what's within your control” thinking [15:46] - Why your energy impacts others and how to shift it [18:12] - Seeing every hard moment as feedback, not failure [20:05] - Final thoughts on presence, responsibility, and consistent growth     5 KEY TAKEAWAYS   1. Awareness Is the First Step Toward Change Before you can shift your behavior or attitude, you've got to recognize when something's off. Awareness creates the gap between reaction and choice. 2. Victimhood Kills Ownership and Confidence It's easy to blame circumstances or others when things go wrong—but choosing responsibility is what builds maturity and trust in yourself. 3. Your State Impacts Your Story How you feel physically and emotionally influences the narrative you create in your mind. Shifting your state can instantly shift your mindset. 4. Tone Matters in Leadership Even when your intentions are good, your tone can undermine the message. Ethan shares how he's learning to adjust and communicate more effectively. 5. Every Struggle Is an Opportunity to Grow Whether it's a rough day, a mistake, or a mindset spiral—each one holds the potential for learning, growth, and leadership if you lean into it.       LINKS & RESOURCES   thedadedge.com/legendarybook  25 Questions to Spark Connection With Your Partner: https://www.thedadedge.com/25questions The Dad Edge Alliance: https://www.thedadedge.com/alliance Tools for Fathers: https://www.thedadedge.com/tools Podcast Hub: https://www.thedadedge.com/podcast       If this episode helped you think differently about growth, mindset, or your role as a father, please rate, follow, review, and share the podcast.

Imagine juggling full-time teaching, full-time parenting, and a five-year-long divorce. Exhausting doesn't even begin to cover it.  That was Vikki's reality until she realized one thing: no one was coming to change her life for her. If she wanted something different, she'd have to create it. On this episode of the Build Your Copywriting Business podcast, Vikki was suuuuper generous with sharing her story and how she went from burnout to building an entire new career. Vikki has not only doubled her income, she's also working less hours. Normally I'd totally get if you were like, “Nicki, spoiler alert!” But the magic is in the way she got to this point. Vikki is sharing all her best tips (Kate and I walked away with some new ones!), including how she kept moving forward, even when the big picture felt overwhelming. --------------- Mentioned in the Episode Victoria Burton Copywriting LinkedInEarning More As a Freelancer than On Staff – Catching Up With StuartAston UniversityHow to Elevate Your Profile & Land Copywriting Clients on LinkedIn Related Links Teacher Burnout, Guilt, and Getting Into a New ProfessionThis Teacher Now Leads a Team of Copywriters – Catching Up with Charlotte --------------- Get Free Copywriting Training here

Making the Teaching about Jesus Beautiful According to the apostles of Jesus, the best way for Christians to fight slander against them and their beliefs is to live in such a way that the criticisms don't stick, especially with those who actually know them and live next to them and work with them. In fact, in Titus 2:1-10, Paul repeats this refrain three times, ending with the idea that by our way of life we should make the teaching about Jesus beautiful and attractive. Titus 2:1-10 2:1 But as for you, proclaim the things which are fitting for sound doctrine. 2 Older men are to be temperate, dignified, self-controlled, sound in faith, in love, in perseverance.   3 Older women likewise are to be reverent in their behavior, not malicious gossips nor enslaved to much wine, teaching what is good, 4 so that they may encourage the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, 5 to be sensible, pure, workers at home, kind, being subject to their own husbands, so that the word of God will not be dishonored. 6 Likewise urge the young men to be sensible; 7 in all things show yourself to be an example of good deeds, with purity in doctrine, dignified, 8 sound in speech which is beyond reproach, so that the opponent will be put to shame, having nothing bad to say about us. 9 Urge slaves to be subject to their own masters in everything, to be pleasing, not argumentative, 10 not stealing, but showing all good faith so that they will adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in every respect.     Free 30 Page eBook to help you Hear and Heed the Bible:  https://www.johnwhittaker.net   Support this ministry: Set up a recurring monthly or a one-time donation at the link below. http://worldfamilymissions.org/john-whittaker/   The Listener's Commentary - In-depth teaching through books of the Bible to help you learn the Bible for yourself:  https://www.listenerscommentary.com   Connect with John: Social Media- connect on facebook and instagram Email - john@johnwhittaker.net If you've been helped by this teaching leave a review and share freely - on Facebook, Instagram, X, via email.

Homeschooling or thinking about it? Wondering if 'open education' is right for your homeschooled child? What if everything we thought we knew about education was designed for a world that no longer exists? Matt Bowman, founder of OpenEd and international bestselling author, joins Dr. Amy and Sandy on this episode of The Brainy Moms Podcast to challenge the foundations of traditional education and offer a refreshingly practical alternative for today's families who are homeschooling or even considering it. After watching all five of his children develop in completely different ways despite growing up in the same household, Matt realized that education shouldn't be one-size-fits-all—it should be as unique as each child.The conversation dives deep into why standard education often fails to meet individual needs. Matt explains how our current system was originally modeled after military training methods imported from Europe over 200 years ago—designed to produce obedient soldiers rather than creative, independent thinkers. This standardization approach stands in stark contrast to how children actually learn and develop."The real tragedy," Matt shares, "is that this system not only fails to measure what matters in education—creativity, continuous progress, critical thinking, skill development—it actively works against it." For parents whose children are struggling, unhappy, or just not thriving, Matt offers a revolutionary yet simple starting point: take two weeks to try something different. Give your child space to explore their interests without pressure, and watch what naturally emerges.One of the most powerful insights Matt shares is reframing our understanding of failure. While traditional education treats failure as something to avoid at all costs, successful athletes, musicians, and entrepreneurs embrace it as essential to growth. Teaching children to see challenges as "not yet" rather than failure fundamentally transforms their relationship with learning.With AI rapidly changing our economic landscape, the skills that matter most aren't standardized test scores but creativity, adaptability, and entrepreneurial thinking. Matt encourages parents to tap into community resources—museums, local businesses, nature, arts programs—and integrate them into core education rather than treating them as mere enrichment.For families ready to explore alternatives, Matt reminds us that small changes can make an enormous difference. Whether it's adjusting schedules, exploring interests, or incorporating entrepreneurship, the goal isn't to replicate school at home but to create learning experiences that honor each child's unique path.Join us to get inspired about personalizing an education that works for your unique child.CONNECT WITH US: Website: www.TheBrainyMoms.com Email: info@TheBrainyMoms.com Social Media: @TheBrainyMoms Our sponsor's website: www.LearningRx.comSandy's TikTok: @TheBrainTrainerLadyDr. Amy's brand new IG: @DrAmySaysGraceDr. Amy's website: www.AmyMoorePhD.com
