Lois Hollis, RN, BSN. REV. shifts our opinion on one of the most forbidden subjects, shame and guilt. Her passion is to show the way to self-love by releasing shame guilt (not shame and guilt.) Shame and guilt reinforce each other to produce negative emotions such as anger, depression, anxiety, addictions, traumas, etc. They infiltrate our emotions with stealth precision that causes our struggles from low confidence to suicide. Depression, anxiety, 30 years of migraine headaches, and pain were Lois' way of life until she learned about the dangers of shameguilt. She realized that shame guilt was within her anger, depression, migraines, rage, fears, and physical pain. The solution was to confront shameguilt.   She shares her 15 years' experience as a ShameGuilt Educator, Counselor, Filmmaker, author to give us a way to health, wellness, and spiritual maturity. Lois began as a Nurse' Aide at 12 and continues today at 78 to be a health advocate. Lois experienced spiritual encounters after severe childhood abuse.   Lois is a trailblazer. She developed one of the first Kidney Hemodialysis centers in the United States. Today, Lois brings shame and guilt together as a new field to study. She has authored three books and the 'I'm good' films. Her newest book, contains her Spirit to cancel the shame guilt hypnosis.   From Lois I'm a Trailblazer As a student and teacher, I am educating others on the dangerous impact of shame and guilt upon each of us. My I'm Good” Docu-series further illustrates how changing the shame/guilt system solves our mental health crisis. In 1964 as a registered nurse, I joined the University of Maryland open-heart surgical and nursing team. I modified my traditional nursing skills to meet the challenges of the new field of open-heart surgery. In 1966 I was a Nurse Entrepreneur. I helped establish one of the first kidney hemodialysis units in the United States at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital. I assisted with research, teaching, and consulting to support other dialysis centers. Before the availability of the hepatitis vaccine, I contained a hepatitis epidemic at Thomas Jefferson Dialysis Unit and developed protocols for hepatitis management in hemodialysis to other units. I co-founded the AANNT American Association of Nephrology Nurses and Technicians in 1971 to standardize procedures for hemodialysis nursing. With sadness and the resistance of colleagues, I left traditional medicine in 1980 for holistic health to save my daughters' life and my own. I know firsthand the importance of healing and the spirit of living. I am blessed for extra years by overcoming heart disease, kidney dysfunction, brain traumas, rib fractures, and 30 years of migraine headaches. I had three miscarriages, but God gave me three beautiful daughters. Why I chose shame and guilt for study? Shame and guilt reinforce each other to produce negative emotions such as anger, depression, addictions, etc. Shame guilt harms our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual states. Lack of knowledge and their secrecy gives them power.

NASA's new moon rocket sprang another dangerous fuel leak Saturday, forcing launch controllers to call off their second attempt this week to send a crew capsule into lunar orbit with test dummies. The inaugural flight is now off for weeks, if not months. The previous try on Monday at launching the 322-foot (98-meter) Space Launch System rocket, the most powerful ever built by NASA, was also troubled by hydrogen leaks, though they were smaller. That was on top of leaks detected during countdown drills earlier in the year. After the latest setback, mission managers decided to haul the rocket off the pad and into the hangar for further repairs and system updates. Some of the work and testing may be performed at the pad before the rocket is moved. Either way, several weeks of work will be needed, according to officials. With a two-week launch blackout period looming in just a few days, the rocket is now grounded until late September or October. NASA will work around a high-priority SpaceX astronaut flight to the International Space Station scheduled for early October. NASA Administrator Bill Nelson stressed that safety is the top priority, especially on a test flight like this where everyone wants to verify the rocket's systems “before we put four humans up on the top of it.” "Just remember: We're not going to launch until it's right," he said. NASA already has been waiting years to send the crew capsule atop the rocket around the moon. If the six-week demo succeeds, astronauts could fly around the moon in 2024 and land on it in 2025. People last walked on the moon 50 years ago. Launch director Charlie Blackwell-Thompson and her team had barely started loading nearly 1 million gallons of fuel into the Space Launch System rocket at daybreak when the large leak cropped up in the engine section at the bottom. Ground controllers tried to plug it the way they handled previous, smaller leaks: stopping and restarting the flow of super-cold liquid hydrogen in hopes of closing the gap around a seal in the supply line. They tried that twice, in fact, and also flushed helium through the line. But the leak persisted. Blackwell-Thompson finally halted the countdown after three to four hours of futile efforts. Mission manager Mike Sarafin told journalists it was too early to tell what caused the leak, but it may have been due to inadvertent over-pressurization of the hydrogen line earlier in the morning when someone sent commands to the wrong valve. “This was not a manageable leak,” Sarafin said, adding that the escaping hydrogen exceeded flammability limits by two or three times. During Monday's attempt, a series of small hydrogen leaks popped up there and elsewhere on the rocket. Technicians tightened up the fittings over the following days, but Blackwell-Thompson had cautioned that she wouldn't know whether everything was tight until Saturday's fueling. Hydrogen molecules are exceedingly small — the smallest in existence — and even the tiniest gap or crevice can provide a way out. NASA's space shuttles, now retired, were plagued by hydrogen leaks. The new moon rocket uses the same type of main engines. Even more of a problem Monday was that a sensor indicated one of the rocket's four engines was too warm, though engineers later verified it actually was cool enough. The launch team planned to ignore the faulty sensor this time around and rely on other instruments to ensure each main engine was properly chilled. But the countdown never got that far. Thousands of people who jammed the coast over the long Labor Day weekend, hoping to see the Space Launch System rocket soar, left disappointed. The $4.1 billion test flight is the first step in NASA's Artemis program of renewed lunar exploration, named after the twin sister of Apollo in Greek mythology. Years behind schedule and billions over budget, Artemis aims to establish a sustained human presence on the moon, with crews eventually spending weeks at a time there. It's considered a training ground for Mars. Twelve astronauts walked on the moon during the Apollo program, the last time in 1972. - by Marcia Dunn, APSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

RACT manual co-author Eugene Silberstein joins the podcast to talk about the titular topic of his book, Pressure Enthalpy Without Tears.  Pressure Enthalpy Without Tears is a book that introduces engineering concepts to HVAC technicians in a way they can understand and apply in the field. Enthalpy is a fancy way of saying “heat,” and we use it to refer to the total heat content (BTUs). The pressure-enthalpy chart shows the relationship between the refrigerant pressure and enthalpy in a system; it's like a P-T chart that shows the relationship between heat content instead of temperature.  Each refrigerant has its own pressure-enthalpy chart, but the points and lines on the chart usually form a right trapezoid. Dirty air filters and other less-than-ideal conditions can distort the trapezoid or shift it on the chart. Each side of the trapezoid represents the refrigerant inside a major component of the HVAC system: evaporator, compressor, condenser, and metering device. The pressure-enthalpy diagram allows you to get a look at individual components while keeping the entire system in mind.  To plot points on a pressure-enthalpy chart, you need the high side pressure, low side pressure, condenser outlet temperature, evaporator outlet temperature, and compressor inlet temperature. Pressure is usually measured in absolute units (rather than gauge units), but ballpark estimates are typically sufficient. Entropy is another concept we need to consider. Compression theoretically leaves no additional entropy and is reversible. Crossing a line of entropy means that a process is no longer reversible. Eugene and Bryan also discuss: Technicians vs. engineers Temperature vs. heat content Psychrometric and pressure-enthalpy charts Using the pressure-enthalpy diagram to assess operation costs Electrical measurements Predicting compressor failure Putting passion into learning and trades education   You can visit https://www.escogroup.org/ to purchase Pressure Enthalpy Without Tears and access all of ESCO Group's resources.

Are we meeting what the customer is looking for?” Ensures your advisors are aligned with your business expectations. Don't assume things are happening because you talked about it once! While many of us trust "gut feel" - and that is important to have - math always wins. Data-driven decisions provide insight. Can prove or disprove your gut? You have a KPI for parts gross profit. When you audit your invoices, you find the jobs that provide the best parts gross profit. You have a KPI for hours per invoice. The audit identifies the jobs that produce the most hours. Now you understand the work you should be focused on. Coaching opportunities- you can see things at a daily point and address them immediately. Technicians with inspection issues, profitability issues, service advisor, declined job tracking, selling maintenance and prescribing it, getting hours per RO up. Magg Wagg coaches daily with email, calls out the good things as well.  Discoveries- process flaws, unsold jobs, how little you make on oil service jobs, what is the average mileage of vehicle, selling maintenance jobs, confidence to bring another service advisor on board, creates relationship builder with customers, track trends.

Careers in aerospace are out of this world! And thanks to the work being done by SpaceTEC, the aerospace technicians are being trained and certified for cutting-edge careers all over the U.S.SpaceTEC was launched as a National Science Foundation center to train aerospace workers. Led by Executive Director Steve Kane, the organization creates curriculum, resources and certifications to help training centers across the country prepare the workforce in their region for aerospace careers.In this episode, we talk with Steve about his vast experience in the aerospace industry, the work being done by SpaceTEC around training aerospace technicians, and the future of space technology!3 Big Takeaways from this episode:Aerospace and Manufacturing align on so many technologies and competencies: For our manufacturing-focused audience, you'll be intersted in how similar the aerospace and advanced manufacturing industries are. In fact, it was the end of the Space Shuttle program in Florida that enabled a massive influx of manufacturing into the region - because the technical workforce was already trained for advanced manufacturing roles. We discuss how these industries are similar, and perhaps more importantly, how they're different.SpaceTEC is building out the first apprenticeships for aerospace technicians in the U.S.: Drawing from traditional apprenticeship models and the experience of partners in Germany, SpaceTEC has launched apprenticeship and pre-apprenticeship programs to train more individuals for careers in aerospace. Their first cohorts focus on three key areas: Mechatronics, Advanced CNC Machining, and Fiber Composites. Built on strong partnerships with well-recognized industry leaders, these apprenticeship programs are the first of their kind to focus on the aerospace market.Automation and mechatronics are revolutionizing the aerospace industry: Like nearly every sector of our economy, aerospace is also being disrupted by automation. Traditionally manual processes like working with composites are now fully automated. Steve helps us understand that those who have programming knowledge and certifications, can operate automated machinery, and have experience in mechatronics will be set up for success in the ever-evolving world of aerospace.The Future of AerospaceWith all the commercialization of space travel, advances in space technology and demand for a skilled workforce, we couldn't help but ask Steve his predictions for the future. All we can say is...There is so much opportunity in the aerospace industry for curious people who love to work with their hands! Listen in to hear all about it.ResourcesTo learn more about SpaceTEC's resources, curriculum and certifications, visit: https://spacetec.us/Visit episode page: https://techedpodcast.com/spacetec/

Are you looking for valuable business advice to reach that seven-figure revenue mark? Do you want actionable tips to properly navigate through every business challenge you encounter as a tradesperson along the way? Then this podcast is definitely for you.  In this episode, we'll discuss how the industry is changing and how hiring is evolving amid that disruption. Moreover, Keith will also discuss how he has evolved during this transition phase and what makes it more fun! You don't want to miss this fascinating discussion about the various aspects of the HVAC industry!! [00:13:00] Keith says, because this industry is changing with time, the greatest approach to achieving success in any business is to keep evolving, Quoting Jocko Billings- “There's no growth in your comfort zone.” “Get out of your comfort zone. Over the years, the one thing I've learned is to accept the good with the bad and be willing to evolve," he says. [00:14:00] “Many people in our industry say that “I pay attention to KPIs.” Man, I don't believe in any of that. When COVID hit and I went all-in on social media, many thought I was crazy.  We received 3 to 5 million views every month on social media. And I enlisted the help of a content creator. He had a large group of people working for him. Every day, we were crushing it. I was also spending a lot of money, so I stopped doing any further advertising”, says Keith Flores. “We grew the business very fast once I went all-in on social media, while everyone else was slashing their budgets. So, right there, you can't measure what your social media content is producing in terms of revenue, can you?” he adds. KPIs aren't as simple as they appear. You can't point to a specific video or blog post. It's a culmination of everything you've created through time, all of which is encapsulated in your branding. [00:15:00] “It's 100% of the brand play. And what I started figuring out is that over the next 4 to 5 years, we're going to lose a lot of people in our trades. I'm not sure if you guys are aware of this. People nowadays demand a lot of stuff,” says Keith. He further explains by giving practical examples- [00:16:00] Make your HVAC technicians feel good about what they're wearing. “In my opinion, everyone in our industry should dress for the role. Everyone in our field should be excited and feel happy about what they're wearing. The team should feel confident and appear to be in fantastic shape, so if you don't like the suit, don't wear it..,” says Keith. In response to how did he gets leads coming in? [00:20:00] Keith replays, that everybody has their secret sauce. “But I can say I do network a lot. I strive to network with the most influential people in our town and industry, and I make sure to speak with them at least once a week.” Find out who the big business owners in the town are and introduce yourself to them. Let them know you're their service provider and ask them to tell their friends about you. [00:21:00] When asked what you offer these big network folks, do you ever give them a discount? “I give them my friendship”, Keith says.

Have you heard about the new ASE L4 ADAS Certification? This test has been in development since January 2020 with the help of industry experts. My guests Matt Shepanek, Matt Haugh, and Keith Perkins say the certification is going to be a major differentiating factor when hiring technicians. We all know the best technicians are the ones constantly learning and training. Stick around for an inside look into the test development and tips on how to pass the test. Matt Shepanek, VP, Credential Testing Programs, https://www.ase.com/ (National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE)) Matt Haugh, Director, Light Vehicle Test Development, https://www.ase.com/ (National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE)) Keith Perkins, https://www.l1diagnostics.com/?fbclid=IwAR2GbWob06QSZACwe7PjWvkQWAJRKsTxbij9qVBSlGSXFxjPXbWsdXw63iI (L1 Automotive Diagnostics and Program), http://www.l1training.com/ (L1 Automotive Training,) Listen to Keith's previous episode https://remarkableresults.biz/remarkable-results-radio-podcast/e375/ (HERE) Key Talking Points Why do we need a test for ADAS? Test developed over a two year period with industry subject matter experts from OEMs, trucking industry, collision and independent repair shops that diagnose repair and calibrate ADAS systems. Test launched as a double length test so ASE can gather statistics on the questions.  Technicians that take the test now will receive a “certificate of completion” and then receive their actual score in the fall once we determine the pass score. The ADAS Specialist Test has been in development since January 2020. The test was launched on May 17th, 2022. The test-launched as a double-length test so that we can gather statistics on the question and determine the passing score for the test.  Late May 2022 – Late Summer 2022: L4 tests will have 80 questions and will have a 3-hour time limit.  Technicians taking the test during this window will receive a “notice of completion” and their L4 test result in myASE will show "Score Pending." In early fall 2022, they will receive an email informing them that the results have been posted to their myASE account. At that time, score reports can be obtained through their myASE account. Fall 2022 and later: The regular L4 test will have 50 questions and will have a 2-hour time limit. L4 test takers will receive a pass/fail score report at the test center and/or through their myASE account. There is a $34 registration fee plus a $100 Advanced Level test fee. To register for the regular L4 test, technicians must have passed the Automotive series A6: Electrical/Electronic Systems certification test or the Collision series B5: Mechanical & Electrical Components certification test.  To become ASE L4 certified, technicians must pass the L4 test and provide evidence of THREE years of relevant, hands-on working experience (or an approved equivalent combination of formal training and hands-on working experience). Technicians can take the L4 test before they have the required experience, but they will not receive a certificate until they have submitted proof of work experience.  The L4 test includes an Advanced Driver Assistance Systems Composite Vehicle Reference document. This document will be available as an electronic pop-up document during the test. The Composite Vehicle Reference document features descriptions of systems, components, calibration procedures, and wiring schematics.  50% of the questions will be generic, and 50% of the questions will be based on the Composite Vehicle. The Composite Vehicle Reference document must be used to answer these questions. Prior to taking the test, technicians should take the time to become familiar with the layout, systems, charts, procedures, and schematics in the Composite Vehicle Reference document. A copy of the document can be downloaded from https://ase.com/ase-study-guides.  In addition to the Composite...

Did you know incentive pay plans are both monetary and nonmonetary? Your business must be profitable and have a clear vision with the right culture set in place for incentive plans to work.

Dave's previous episodes https://remarkableresults.biz/?s=%22Dave+Schedin%22 (HERE) Key Talking Points Motivation- based on relationship, culture, and attributes that empower them.  You must be profitable to have financial rewards Your business model needs to be sustainable, growable, and expandable based on labor- you need to be profitable in labor Performance-based pay: pure pay for what they produce, to hourly based with an incentive scale that gets them to $50 to $70 an hour. Interview- paid training, employment programs for career growth, ask about their dreams and their ‘why' and plan their incentive pay You're not hiring a technician, you're hiring for a career and lifestyle  Employees are looking for security and longevity  Bonuses: it's the cherry on top, monthly/annual hours into training raises base hourly, ASE master raises base hourly, longevity bonuses for tenure, tool bonus based on hours or punctuality, consistency bonus: produced 50 hours or more for 2 to 5 weeks in a row earn up to another $5 an hour, leadership & personal development incentive: be a better version of themselves, Apprentice toolbox they get to keep after 5+ years, etc 74% labor GP on highest-paid tech- take 74%-100% = 26%, $40/.26= labor rate to be at 74% Modifying pay- what is the intent? Can it continue to change? Are there potential negatives by adding to the pay if something goes wrong in the pay plan? You can't compromise and be a giver and taker.  Incentive plans don't work if the employee doesn't know how to track themselves. Teach your employees to watch themselves in the simplest way.  Give freedom- expand to quarter or every 6-month programs to take into account vacation, sick time, etc. Don't make it a disincentive plan Critical sick time, health spending account, ‘pay the vacation,' health benefits plan for families, team bonuses Your incentive plan should build your bench of technicians wanting to come work for you. One pay plan doesn't work for everyone. It also needs to be tied to your vision for the business.
