In this episode, we tackle a common habit that often does more harm than good: fasting before a big meal in an attempt to save calories. With the holiday season approaching, many of us find ourselves falling into the trap of skipping meals to indulge guilt-free later. While this idea may seem logical on the surface, it's essential to understand why this approach can lead to unintended consequences. We explore the psychology behind this habit and how it reflects a broader pattern of all-or-nothing thinking, where strict rules around eating can create a cycle of bingeing and restriction. You'll learn how to recognize this mindset and the impact it has on your relationship with food. We also discuss practical strategies for setting yourself up for success during the holidays. From starting your day with balanced meals to focusing on mindful indulgence, these actionable tips will help you navigate holiday gatherings without feeling deprived. You'll discover the importance of creating a flexible mindset, allowing yourself to enjoy your favorite foods without guilt, and how to break the “last supper” mentality that often accompanies indulgent meals. By the end of this episode, you'll have a deeper understanding of how to approach holiday meals with confidence and ease. Plus, we'll revisit the importance of self-affirmation and how to shift your language around food for a healthier mindset.

If you think a recession means you should pull back on marketing, think again. Paul Lemberg shares why now more than ever is the time to go all in. Paul has consulted with Fortune 100 companies like Cisco, Adobe, IBM, Goldman Sachs, and JP Morgan/Chase, but his true passion is helping small business owners and CEOs double and triple their profits, sometimes growing their companies more than 10-fold. Over the last few years, Paul's one-on-one small business clients, who range in size from brand-new startups to companies with around $20 million in sales, have profited by more than $550 million in bankable, put-in-your-pocket cash: the equivalent of billions in extra sales. Paul became an entrepreneur at 27. He sold his first company for just under $9 million and sold his second company to a large German bank. He's published three books. For 28 years, Paul has coached entrepreneurs to grow revenues and profits, scale with chains and franchises, raise capital, and sell their companies. Many have sold their companies for millions, including one client who sold his healthcare chain for over $100 million. The 3 Most Common Business Problems After working with many different businesses in a variety of industries, Paul says that all companies are made up of the same parts–and therefore run into the same problems. The three most common problems are a lack of leads, undercharging, and not understanding what the target market is and why those people should buy. To grow your business, you need to correctly identify which of those problems apply to you and then take a targeted approach to solve each one. For example, a new marketing campaign can generate more leads. Raising your prices can quickly grow revenue. If you're unsure of your messaging, the best way to fix that is to ask your existing customers.  How to Thrive Through a Recession  At a time when most companies are pulling back, Paul's advice is counterintuitive: to spend more money on marketing, not less. During a recession, your competitors will likely scale back their marketing efforts. They'll make cuts and stop investing in growth. If you do the opposite, you can end the recession in a stronger market position.  There are two main avenues Paul recommends: content marketing and paid advertising. Thought leadership content differentiates you from competitors and builds your personal brand, while paid ads allow you to test your messaging at scale. For the best conversions, Paul recommends a combination of both paid and unpaid strategies.  Enjoy this episode with Business Coach Paul Lemberg… Quotes “When the divine wants you to hear something, if you're not paying attention, they‘ll reach you any way they can.” “If everyone around you is wrong, you're not being coachable.” “The truth is all businesses are basically the same. They all have fundamentally the same moving parts. Those parts may look different, but they all have the same moving parts. And I find that largely they all have similar problems.” “The answer to a lot of problems is let's go talk to some customers.” “Your content differentiates you. Your conversations differentiate you…that's really why you must be a content marketer.”  “Inspiration literally means to breathe life into and I wait for the breath of life that comes to me, and then I write based on that.” Links mentioned in this episode: Visit Paul's website: http://www.lemberg.com  Connect with Paul on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/unreasonable/  The New Shift Manifesto: http://www.lemberg.com/newshift  Ready, Fire, Aim by Michael Masterson: https://www.amazon.ca/Ready-Fire-Aim-Zero-Million/dp/0470182024 The No Strategy Strategy video: http://www.lemberg.com/nostrat

This is Season 3, Episode 9 of FocusED, and it features our guest, Joshua Stamper. It was originally recorded live for a studio audience in Delaware, provided as a professional development experience for Delaware teachers and leaders. Don't miss what Joshua has to say about aspiring leadership, leadership development, and so much more. _______________________________________ Joshua Stamper Brings Tons of Experience to FocusED Listeners Joshua Stamper initially used his artistic talent, creativity, and original ideas as a professional graphic designer. He then transitioned to inspiring students to use their imagination and creative expression in public education. Being unsuccessful as a student growing up, Joshua never expected to be back in the classroom as a teacher, athletic coach, or administrator. His struggles as a student spawned a passion to change the education model, push the boundaries of traditional learning, and explore new innovative ideas. Joshua has been a middle school Assistant Principal in North Texas for the past eight years, where he's served at four campuses in two school districts. In addition to his current administrative position, Joshua is the host of Aspire: The Leadership Development Podcast, leadership coach, education presenter, and Podcast Network Manager for the Teach Better Team. He's also the author of the 2021 book, ASPIRE to Lead. Joshua lives in the Dallas, TX area with his wife and five children. You can stay connected by following @Joshua__Stamper on Twitter and Instagram, or by visiting his website www.joshstamper.com. ___________________________________________________ FocusED Show Notes with Joshua Stamper Josh talked about how leads often obtain knowledge but then rarely do anything with it to grow and change. The “activate” part of self-development is the use of knowledge in practice, especially for leaders who want to move up to the next level. Josha talks about how it goes a long way to be able to explain experiences as a leader when interviewing for positions versus just explaining what you might do. Josh tells aspiring leaders to seek support wherever you can, even if it's not on your campus. There's no winning or losing, only learning. ~ Joshua Stamper The model came to Josh because he was tasked with building an aspiring leaders program in his district. In his work with aspiring leaders, he was inspired to help others and write the book to add value as a resource in education. Josh is working on supplemental material for the book so that readers get more stories and more depth into their journey as an aspiring leader. Josh recommended The Ten Minute Leader by Evan Rob and Thrive Through the Five by Jill Siler. He mentioned the Teach Better Team. Check them out. Josh leans heavy into Voxer groups to stay connected with others. We talked about the fact that the greatest leaders of all time are always aspiring. Josh talked about simply wanting to make an impact and help education in as many ways as he can. Josh talked about a future topic in education, maybe a book called The Necessary Evolution of Education in America. Can't wait for him (or someone) to write it. _________________________________________ Thanks for listening to FocusED, an educational leadership podcast brought to you by TheSchoolHouse302 @ theschoolhouse302.com where we publish free leadership content.

Talking with Jill M. Siler, the Superintendent of Gunter ISD and author of Thrive Through the Five, whose focus has remained solution-oriented. During this conversation, Jill talks about the work that we do as leaders and how we can truly thrive even through those times of struggle. Jill reflects on how the work we do is shaping the culture and creating shifts to move a district in a direction that the community and stakeholders recognize will benefit all learners. We have to make a choice to act, to build relationships, to recognize the needs of others, to support everyone so that we can all be the best we can for our kids. Jill shares: "The leader's responsibility is to constantly have the pulse on the people to say, 'Are my people doing well?' And if not, how can I support them or how can I make a change in the system to make it better for them to do their job? So how can we support the people to make that happen?"
