We missed posting this one during Pride month, but it's relevant! Join us for a conversation with local beloved Berkeleyite Paul.  We hear how his relative worked on the Oakland Temple in the 50s, and about Paul's life being gay in San Francisco in the 80s. He loves the temple, and hearing his testimony was delightful.  Thanks Paul!   David O. McKay and the Rise of Modern Mormonism, by Gregory A Prince and WM Robert Wright https://www.amazon.com/David-McKay-Rise-Modern-Mormonism/dp/0874808227 Photos!

Pastor Mike had to self-isolate due to a family member testing positive for Covid. Ended up being a false positive but thankfully Paul was a ble to fill in last minute.  I can alsway count on Paul bringing a timely God-honouring message.  Thanks Paul. The post PRODIGALS appeared first on Lawson Heights Alliance Church.

The notorious Titus 2 model: Let the older women teach the younger women...”. Thanks Paul, great ad-lib, but fast forward to today, 2020: Is that art dead? Are the lines of healthy communication & guidance a far fetched idea? Is it butchered beyond recognition? I reason that one shouldn't just complain or a criticise but rather be part of the solution. So I figure, why not bring a few ladies of overlapping generations & just talk about the “mean girl” phenomena. Thank you Nikeeya Ali, Karisma Kennedy & Pastor Dana Blue.

Craig McLean here again and this week I've been chatting with Paul McCrossin the president of the UCA and we specifically pull apart the last 6 months and how Paul led the UCA members through the global pandemic. Back in the 1990s Paul and I studied together back in Melbourne, RMIT. It was a very in-depth chat about what decisions were made and why. Thanks Paul for taking the time and for showing strong leadership through this time. Listen if you want all the detail of what happened and what the current state of play is regarding using PPE and track and trace. I also ask what does chiropractic in the future look like? We finish up sharing some ski stories from back in the day. 

The Real Reality Homo aka Paul and I have a delightful conversation about all Real Housewives franchises, his Twitter, ummm feud, with Camille Meyer, formerly Camille Gramer, and of course we speculate wildly on the Brand Glandville and Denise Richards situation.  We talk about much more- including his predictions for the Real Housewives of Dallas this season and how if you are not watching Dallas and Potomac you should be.  We recap RHONY and Ramona’s birthday party too....wow Leah wow.

Thanks Paul for taking the time to share information about your 38 year career as a chiropractor, graduating in July 1982 and been serving the Richmond/Kew community ever since. Kew chiropractic first opened at its current site in 1965 (yes 55 years ago) with Barry King in charge, followed by Chris Hadley in 1976, then our own Paul Danford in 1986. Thanks again for taking the time Paul and hope you enjoy the listen.

Pricing, Productizing Services, and Creating a Product Ladder - with guest Paul Klein This week Paul Klein joins me on the podcast to discuss pricing, time, value, and making the transition from W2 to K1. Paul is the host of the Pricing is Positioning podcast, a Keynote speaker, and business consultant. Thanks Paul for the awesome discussion. Questions: What does the transition from W2 to K1 typically look like? How do you think about productizing services? Why do we fall into the hourly rate trap? If value is subjective, how can that help or hurt us? What are some common misperceptions around pricing when moving from W2 to K1? Why do we over complicate the process? Key Takeaways: Most people undervalue their services, their expertise The first sale is to yourself Recognize that there is value in what you do You can’t serve every client in every vertical Make it easy for customers to do business with you Give your customers three (3) choices when it comes to pricing - the sweet spot At the end of the day, it’s about the value to the client Value is very subjective People buy outcomes, not time Every brand should have a product ladder Leverage your expertise to build out your design Not all customers are created equally, not all services are created equally Show Links PaulKlein.net Pricing is Positioning Podcast Call to Action What processes, roles, systems, do you want to "blow-up" in your organization?

MAIL CALL Question from Joe and Linda -  I have  been knee deep with you guys for the last 14 months and can’t Thank You enough for the wealth of information you provide. One of my favorite quotes: “ Your generosity is only exceeded by my gratitude.” I have a long commute to work in the morning and have managed to listen to all 240+ of the Options Playbook, all of the Bootcamp, 90% of the OIC stuff as well as in and out of the Options Advisor and Futures show. Also haven’t missed Options Block for the last few months.  I purchased Dan’s Trading Options Greeks book and was wondering if he had an audio version. Could easily listen to it on my morning commute. You so much for all your help, looking forward to the future with you guys. Going to be successful enough to be able to travel thank you guys in person! Thanks Again! Question from Rayman5839 - Hi! Is the option premium counted toward exercising an option when in the money?. New to options, thanks...So it would only be profitable if the intrinsic value heavily outweighs extrinsic? Question from Thomas Weber - If I am short a deep in the money call in SPY (delta near 1), what are the odds I will be assigned before Friday expiration? Question from Alto - Which do you think has a better chance of happening - no more earnings calls or after hours options trading? And which do you think would be more impactful for options traders? Do you have a preference? Question from 6654P - Why are options on CBOE and CME GROUP viewed differently? Question from Paul Vasquez - When is the “official” close as far as options expiration is concerned?  I’ve had calls assigned and had stocks put to me when the strike was out of the money at market close but it moved in and out during after hours trading. Any light you can shed on how expirations work would be appreciated. Thanks Paul, Sacramento, CA Question from LL6 - Why did mini options fail? Are they done for good? Question from Neels - Why is the logo for this show blue? Question from RadH0k - Is spread delta just diff of the deltas on the two options? Question from JackTam - Is there another exchange educator out there other than Cboe institute?

This week on the Brexit podcast that’s so powerful the government schedules its bad news for Thursdays to make sure we miss it… Special guest JONN ELLEDGE of the New Statesman and Citymetric joins us to talk about how urbanisation relates to Brexit. Is the old “Remain metropolises vs Leave countryside” conundrum really nonsense? Is there a plan for infrastructure after Brexit? And more importantly, why does Jonn love propellerheaded Brexit wonk Dan Hannan so much? PLUS: What’s really behind Jeremy Corbyn’s massive turnaround regarding the single market? SEE YOU NEXT TUESDAY: Can the government get a proper day of debate on the Withdrawal Bill done in one day? (Spoiler: course it can’t). And why we might be living through a 1970s TV series called THE ARMAGEDDON SCENARIO. And marvel as we try to predict what major events we’ll miss this week because they happened after we finished recording – and totally miss the resignation of Paul Dacre AND Theresa May utterly duffing up David Davis over the customs backstop. Thanks Paul! Thanks Theresa and David!“Trying to understand Labour’s Brexit policy is like learning Klingon.

Christine has been sober for 129 days... This is her story… Support the Recovery Elevator Podcast by shopping at Amazon with the Recovery Elevator link: www.recoveryelevator.com/amazon/ This episode was brought to you by Cafe RE! SHOW NOTES What is a dry drunk? It is someone who just doesn’t drink anymore, who has 'quit' using sheer willpower... ***Spoiler Alert*** Willpower eventually runs out. We need a program, something and someone to fall back on to support us. Your program can look completely unique to yourself and doesn't just have to be AA (although many do recommend it). When you quit using sheer willpower, sure, you become healthier, physically feeling like you’ve been born again and the memory of passing out in a Cracker Barrel buffet line begins to fade. You'll start to gain confidence in your recent found 'sober' success and you say to yourself, "I did this. I quit. I got this." (Uh-oh, those three little words, think RE #86... Problem right there!) Eventually, we will forget entirely about the Cracker Barrel buffet line, which is a problem because, A – their cornbread is fantastic and, B – that was the reason you quit drinking. That was not a highlight in your life.  Studies show that humans have selective memory and we tend to remember the good things (i.e. the Cornbread) and not the bad things (i.e. the Ambulance, the Buffet Line, and the Cracker Barrel experience). As a dry drunk, when we quit drinking, our genius plan is to simply not drink, thinking that one day we’ll be able to drink normally again. If you have this thought, don’t worry, every alcoholic has, but the dry drunks don’t ever address this or relinquish the thought. The key is to surrender. This is what I call 'white knuckling it'. I think everyone is white knuckling it when they quit drinking but the dry drunks keep white knuckling it. Right about the time when all the physical healing has taken place (for me, it took over a year), is when the true white knuckling takes place. It’s when Gary (Paul's alter-ego) starts to make an appearance. It’s when 'we' start having the internal dialogue of justification. It’s when our unconscious minds have seen the barrage of alcohol adds on social media, television, and everywhere else our open eyes and ears look. This is when the cognitive dissonance starts to take place... Translation, we need help! We can't do this alone... [ 08:12 ] Paul introduces Christine. Christine's last drink was June 13th of 2016, about 129 days ago. She has been sober for just over 4 months. Christine grew up in a small town in central Michigan. She is now studying chemistry at Montana State University and is almost finished with her Ph.D. She loves hunting, fishing, camping and anything else outside... [ 09:23 ] Paul talks about first meeting Christine in 2011 when he was a dry drunk and how she helped him in 2014 to make a change after hitting his bottom. Christine remembers that Paul was hurting so badly and she was so glad that Paul gave her a call. There were lots of tears, lots and lots of tears (and it wasn't just the horses and pastures they were passing causing an allergic reaction) as they drove down canyon from Big Sky Ski Resort where Paul was DJ-ing a wedding. Christine urged Paul to call his mom, dad, and brother, to seek support... Christine has been an integral part of Paul's sobriety. [ 14:03 ] Talk to us about your Elevator. What was your bottom? "Bottoms are always defined differently... I had decided back in December of 2015 to quit drinking. I stopped drinking for 2 weeks before deciding that I wasn't a 'quitter'! I picked right up where I left off. I wasn't fully committed, I hadn't taken the steps I needed." In June, Christine had a "what am I doing with my life" moment on her way to fishing... She had a couple beers on the road and stopped to let the dog out before getting to the fishing spot, where she realized that her bottle of whiskey had spilled everywhere. "I was horrified, my heart started to flutter and I started to panic..." On the way back from fishing, Christine smacked a deer. This really opened her eyes as so much more could have gone wrong... Christine took this as a sign that it was time to make a change.   [17:51  ] How did you do it? Walk us through the first day, the first week. "Those first few days were such a blur. I started intensive outpatient therapy (IOP)... I was a wreck. The IOP really helped. I had a friend in West Yellowstone who I relied on heavily during my early days of sobriety. I spent a lot of time on the fishing boat out in the middle of nowhere." [ 19:36 ] Christine comments on how important it is to get outdoors...  "Fly fishing has just become my absolute passion. To this day, anytime I feel wrong, or off, or I have cravings, I throw whatever I'm doing to the side and head to the river." Since being sober, Christine has not torn any waders or taken any 'accidental' swims in 43 degree weather! Fishing has taught Christine the beauty of being totally present. [ 22:51 ] How much did you drink? Talk to us about your drinking habits before you quit. "I was on an exponential curve downwards... That last month of drinking was just sliding... I was finishing almost a bottle of whiskey a day." "I'd use booze to handle work, to handle stress, to handle literally everything..." [ 24:31 ] Christine talks about her bipolar diagnosis. Christine is diagnosed with bipolar II, which is an elevated state of mood... "My doctors and counselors kept telling me that I drank too much... They told me that my moods, the ups and downs, would improve if I stopped drinking. Alcohol would just make the highs higher and the lows lower... I could just drink and drink and drink when I was in a mania state, but when I was depressed, it would drag me down and down and down..." Christine got honest with herself and those around her... [ 29:40 ] What changes did you see? "The biggest part was telling people about it. When I didn't have the strength, I had other people to keep me in line. I don't think anybody can do it alone." Christine lost 25lbs. just from quitting drinking. Going to bed at night is still challenging for Christine, but it's a lot better than pounding shots to blackout. "Some days are still absolute hell, my emotions get the best of me... These are the hardest. Sometimes I head into work at 3am to keep me from drinking." [ 33:29 ] Walk us through a day in your life and how you stay sober today. "I don't really have a day to day sobriety plan. I haven't fully gotten on board with AA, but I do go to a Friday and Saturday AA group at 9pm. I have a bunch of friends there. I listen to this podcast and participate in the Facebook Group... So many times I have looked at that and have been so thankful. I see two different counselors, an addiction counselor and a mental health counselor. Honestly, I'm so busy that I just dig my head into what I'm doing and be there and be present." [ 35:38 ] Rapid Fire Round What was your worst memory from drinking? "I was 16 and I was binge drinking. I pounded 8 shots of UV-Blue and 10 minutes later was puking blue... My mom was not so thrilled." Did you ever have an “oh-shit” moment? "When I smacked into that deer... I realized it was time." What’s your plan moving forward? "To keep sober. I consider future events that could be triggering and talk out a plan to stay sober, making sure that I have an out." What's your favorite resource in recovery? "My group at the Alcohol and Drug Services here in Bozeman, MT." What’s the best advice you’ve ever received (on sobriety)? "Get an accountability partner, giving them permission to call you out on your crap!" What parting piece of guidance can you give listeners who are in recovery or thinking about quitting drinking? "Dive in. Do it. Don't give up. It's going to suck at first, but a week from now it'll be better, just keep going." “You Might be an Alcoholic If…” "If you try to drink the split whiskey in the bottom of your cooler that's mixed with the water...." (Thanks Paul!)  "If you start selling your fly rods so you can buy another bottle of whiskey." - Christine   Resources mentioned in RE 90: Support the Recovery Elevator Podcast by shopping at Amazon with the Recovery Elevator link: www.recoveryelevator.com/amazon/ Connect with Cafe RE For $12.00 per month, you can have unlimited, private access to groups of like-minded people via in-person meet-ups, unsearchable Facebook groups, and travel.

First month FREE with Promo Code: Elevator. Sobriety Tracker AA Recovery Elevator Episode #1: Do You Have a Drinking Problem Support the Recovery Elevator Podcast by shopping at Amazon with the Recovery Elevator link: www.recoveryelevator.com/amazon/   SHOW NOTES “In Episode 1 of RE, we (the human Paul & the dog Ben) do a test to determine if I am an alcoholic. The results… Blatantly clear. Yes, I am an alcoholic.” Paul found it extremely difficult to stop drinking after having just one drink. For about a decade, he lived in the pickle of “one drink was too much and 1,000 drinks was just not enough.” How the hell do you navigate that? Well, the answer is definitely, “Don’t drink.” Now, at Episode 85, Paul has an even better test to determine if you’ve got a drinking problem. Preliminary steps before taking this self-assessment: Make sure you are hydrated. Drink lots of water (if you are already drinking a beer during this portion, then yes, you too are an alcoholic). Stretch out. Loosen up. Maybe even do some burpees! Make sure you’ve got enough lead in your pencil and ink in your pen! Take some deep breaths. Paul’s Self-Assessment Test: (***This is going to be the new metric moving forward, I guarantee it! No need to go spend a ton of money on any other tests...This assessment is free and accurate.***) Have you ever wondered, “Do I have a drinking problem?” YES or NO ***FEEL FREE TO PRESS PAUSE, GRAB A GLASS OF WATER, SHARPEN YOUR PENCIL, ETC., AS THIS IS THE HALF WAY POINT OF THE SELF ASSESSMENT TEST*** Have you ever asked yourself, “Would my life be better without alcohol?” YES or NO CONGRATULATIONS!!! You have just finished the Recovery Elevator self-assessment! Answer Key: Listen to Paul on RE 85 @ [ 5:11 ]  "Quitting drinking isn’t easy, but my life is exponentially better since I’ve quit drinking." In the previous 84 podcasts, there's a pretty good roadmap already laid out for you… Not only will your life improve (yes, there will be speed bumps), but the lives of those around you will improve too! In all honesty, these self-assessment tests are this simple. It’s not easy, but it’s better.   [ 10:25 ] Paul Introduces John. John was born and raised and lives in Wichita, Kansas. He has a 3-year old son. He enjoys working on his car, experimenting with cooking, and comic books… He is engaged to be married to a woman who is also in the program (AA). John’s last drink was August 28th, 2011… John kept trying to do it (quit drinking) on his own, but time and time again, it just didn’t happen! After telling himself, “I’m just going to have two beers..." 3 or 4 beers, a few mixed drinks, sake for the whole table (they were going to a bar after dinner) and a $400 bar tab later… "I woke up on the floor in my undies, covered in puke (puke in the hallway, puke in the bathroom)... I just felt that someone was telling me to get help.” John realized he just couldn't do this alone. [ 20:29 ] When did you decide to first quit drinking? “I was sick and tired of being sick and tired. I kept trying to do it myself, but I’d always find a “special” occasion to drink.” This is one of those things (choosing sobriety) where you actually have to do the work! [ 22:19 ] “I think I got this.” John explains what this means for him... To John, this phrase means that he’s letting his ego tell him how to run things. “I tried on my own without a program, guidance or a schedule and it just wouldn’t stick. Ever.” When John got his 2nd DUI, he knew something was up… John knew that if he drank again, he would get behind the wheel. [ 24:15 ] Talk to us about Alcoholics Anonymous. John was completely blown away by the spectrum of diverse people that made up his first AA meeting, which was quite contrary to what he “knew” AA was going to be! [ 31:08 ] John discusses weight loss, cooking and what he does with all his booze-FREE time! [ 32:59 ] What’s your favorite dance move? Thanks Paul for getting in some humor! In his sobriety, John has really enjoyed running, but he does not prefer the “Running Man,” and claims that the “Robot” is more his style... [ 35:48 ] Rapid Fire Round What was your worst memory from drinking? “I had the DUI 50-moped (the scooter I rode when I had my license suspended) and I had been drinking. I got on the moped… I just could not stop myself from drinking and driving.” Did you ever have an “oh-shit” moment? “That day that I swore to myself that I’d only have 2 beers at the restaurant and ended up wondering, “How the hell did this happen?” What’s your plan moving forward? “Keep going to meetings, keep being thankful for my sobriety, keep asking for more sobriety, keep being honest with my sobriety, and keep reaching out to people.” What’s your favorite resource in recovery? “Right now, it’s the podcasts. I can take them anywhere. I can listen to it and nobody even knows.” John listens to Recovery Elevator, SHAIR Podcast, and the Bubble Hour. What’s the best advice you’ve ever received (on sobriety)? “Look for the similarities. We all want to stay sober.” What parting piece of guidance can you give listeners who are in recovery or thinking about quitting drinking? “Just do it. You’re going to want to find a reason to not start, to give it one more day. Just do it. Just stop. Today. Right now.

“Every single time you respond to a customer complaint it increases advocacy. Every time you don’t it decreases it.” Jay Baer would know. For his new book Hug Your Haters, Jay didn’t just write about what he thought and felt about customer complaints. He commissioned a study from Edison Research to better understand the role customer service plays in how we build brands online. We talked about all of this — including his upcoming keynote at Social Brand Forum 2016 — on this week’s On Brand podcast.   About Jay Baer Jay Baer is a marketing and online customer service expert and eye-opening keynote speaker who has advised more than 700 brands since 1994 including The United Nations, Nike, Cisco, Allstate and 32 of the FORTUNE 500 companies. Jay is the most re-tweeted person in the world among digital marketers and is the President of Convince And Convert, a consulting firm where he and his team help companies gain and keep more customers. Jay also publishes the world’s #1 content marketing blog, the #1 marketing podcast, and a daily email newsletter. He is a New York Times best-selling author of five books, an avid tequila collector and a certified barbecue judge.

The marketing tips, techniques, and mindset presented in this episode are absolute gold. I was so pumped when I finished this interview. Paul Gough is a physiotherapist and private practice owner in England with four clinic locations. What's most impressive about this is that his business is almost 100% cash-based in a country where everyone can get physical therapy completely for free. That's right, most of his patients pay $100-$150/visit out-of-pocket at his clinics, even though they would pay $0 to go to his competition. How in the world has he pulled this off? We cover it all in this interview. In fact, there is so much detail and information I had to cut the interview into two parts to keep them reasonable in length. In Part 1 of this interview, you'll learn about: Why Paul chose to leave his position as physiotherapist for a professional soccer team to start his own practice. The general structure of the health care and insurance system in the UK… Which provides free physical therapy to everyone. How his profits plummeted overnight due to a change in a law, and what he did to make sure he was never affected like that again. The definition of “direct response marketing.” How and why he changed his “brochure-style” website to a “direct response” website. What he has found people are truly looking for when they inquire about physical therapy… Hint: it is not to “get rid of my pain.” How and why he works to “generate leads” rather than “advertising for a sale” The secret to why many practices have occasional “flat lines” in the amount of new patients they generate, and how to avoid that in your practice. The most common objections that prospective patients have to starting physical therapy, and how to provide answers to them effectively. how he compels website visitors to provide their contact information, and the extremely sophisticated follow-up process he uses to keep 4 cash-pay clinics (7 staff PTs) fully booked, while his competitors charge patients nothing out of pocket. Why you can create the same phone and email system for your practice even if none of your staff are very “good on the phone.  Resources and Links mentioned in this episode: “Make them Say Yes - 16 Objections to Booking Their 1st PT Appointment” – A highly valuable product that Paul usually sells but is giving it to us here for Free!

The real McKenzies are a band known for having a good time.. Even though there's been over 100 members in the band!! Paul McKenzie started the band way back in 1992.  The band taps into keltic music and blends it with punk rock.  Always something to say, we speak a bit about their new album 'Rats in the Burlap' (Released on Stomp Records in Canada and Fat Wreck-Chords everywhere else).  We talk about touring, cars, heart attacks and the basque region of Spain. Thanks Paul & everyone else for the good time in the basement of the Horseshoe Tavern.
