The story of the Mekoshesh is placed next to the parsha of Tzitzis to teach that Shabbos is as valuable as all the Mitzvos. Chazal tell us that the Mekoshesh had noble intentions, but he was still stoned to death for being Mechallel Shabbos. Some thoughts on the value of Shabbos and how seriously we must view it.Have a good Shabbos
Organizational change is now a constant rather than a phase. Few stories illustrate this better than Hearst Networks' journey, as shared by Dean Possenniskie, CEO, and Lucy King, Chief People Officer, on this episode of Workplace Stories. Moving from a legacy cable business into a diversified, higher-margin media powerhouse, Hearst proves that reinvention is possible not just for startups but for well-established companies with deep roots and long histories.Hearst, an organization with a legacy and heritage, and a willingness to continually reinvent itself, has adopted the “phoenix” metaphor to frame its transformation. They've made hard choices, like closing brands, exiting joint ventures, and even shutting offices, before expanding into new partnerships with giants like Sky, Amazon, Apple, and YouTube. You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in...[07:59] Working in HR during transformations[12:36] Transitioning to full Hearst ownership[18:29] Crafting a purpose statement[21:12] Why it pays to implement a coaching mindset[25:30] Investing in learning and development[32:11] Defining company values and culture[37:08] Improving profitability and growth focus[39:16] Valuing autonomy and trust at Hearst[44:15] Encouraging innovation company-wide[47:14] Balancing governance with creative autonomyCulture at the CoreCulture is often seen as a soft layer, a set of values on a wall, or the flavor of the latest offsite. Dean Possenniskie and Lucy King see it differently: culture had to be the engine of transformation, integral to performance and strategy. One of Dean's earliest moves was to reposition the people and culture function away from finance, placing it directly alongside the CEO—a signal of culture's importance as a business driver.The results speak for themselves. While revenues declined 20%, margins grew by more than 40%, and internal workplace surveys saw “great place to work” scores leap from 53% to over 80%. This wasn't about being “nice,” but about creating a place where people could do their best work, take risks, and feel empowered.Building Change MuscleA core tenet of Hearst's approach to transformation was empowerment at every level. Lucy describes removing archaic performance systems and replacing them with coaching-centered one-to-ones, helping managers foster a sense of ownership, capability, and resilience in their teams. The organization invested in professional coaching for anyone, at any level, who requested it, a significant commitment, but one tailored for maximum impact rather than blanket sameness.This was complemented with mentoring, leveraging technology to link senior leaders with mentees across the company. This “bottom-up” ethos even shaped their AI and technology adoption: rather than mandating tools from the top, creative, programming, and scheduling teams were given room to experiment and bring forward the solutions that actually worked for them.The Power of Purpose and the “Deal”Change is unsettling, and ambiguity can erode trust. To anchor their people, the leadership spent months articulating a purpose statement—a north star for decision-making and daily work. More boldly, they introduced “our deal,” a written two-way document explaining not just what the company expected from employees, but what employees could expect in return: support, development, and clear direction.Dean describes this as adult-to-adult relationship building. It's about empowering personal leadership and ownership, backed by transparent communication—even when delivering hard messages or acknowledging failures. As they say, “we learn fast, not fail fast.” Resources & People MentionedAbout - HEARSTLeave Something on the Table: and Other Surprising Lessons for Success in Business and in Life by Frank Bennack The Problem with Change: And the Essential Nature of Human Performance Kindle Edition by Ashley Goodall Understand the network dynamics of culture'Sapiens' by Yuval Noah HarariConnect with Lucy King and Dean PossenniskieLucy King | Hearst Networks EMEA Dean Possenniskie | Hearst Networks EMEA Connect With Red Thread ResearchWebsite: RedThread ResearchOn LinkedInOn FacebookOn TwitterSubscribe to WORKPLACE STORIES
Who controls what happens between women's legs after menopause?It's a confronting question, but one that sits at the heart of this episode.In this short, powerful conversation, I am joined by menopause specialist and sexologist Dr Angela Wright to explore why so many women — particularly those who have had cancer — are still being denied access to vaginal and vulval oestrogen treatments. And why we're not routinely having the conversation about sexual health after cancer treatment.Despite being widely recognised as one of the most effective and low-risk treatments for genitourinary symptoms of menopause (GSM), access remains incredibly low. Many women are left navigating pain, dryness, recurrent infections, loss of sexual function, and a deep impact on identity and relationships — often without being offered treatment. Or they're told ‘no'.This episode explores:Why are women not allowed to make an informed choice about their intimate health?The realities of genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM) — and why it's more than “just dryness”The added complexity for women on treatments like aromatase inhibitors (e.g. Letrozole)The emotional and relational impact of untreated symptomsHow history, culture, and medical caution continue to shape women's access to careThe growing body of guidance suggesting low-dose vaginal hormones may be appropriate for many women, including after breast cancerThe balance between clinical responsibility and patient autonomyThis is not a black-and-white conversation. It's not about right or wrong.It's an invitation — to think, to question, and to open up more honest, informed conversations between patients and healthcare professionals.Because at its core, is it about choice?Links mentioned in this episode:You can find Dr Wright here: https://spicedpearhealth.co.uk/about/Sweetness of Venus: A history of the clitoris book https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sweetness-Venus-History-Clitoris/dp/B08W3NZ1H9Women's Health Made Easy Book: for Healthcare Professionals, click hereMore information about vaginal oestrogen after breast cancer: https://menopauseandcancer.org/navigating-vaginal-oestrogen-after-breast-cancer-what-every-woman-needs-to-know/Episode Highlights:00:00 Intro05:36 Doctor's journey and women's health08:17 Challenges of Menopause Treatment10:32 Debating hormone prescription guidelines14:25 Discussing medical trauma and autonomy18:19 Discussing bodily agency and benefits21:18 Reclaiming life after trauma24:31 Understanding compliance with endocrine therapies26:42 Valuing women's opinions in healthcare29:48 Discussing erectile dysfunction post-cancer34:39 Opening conversations on sexual healthConnect with us:For more information and resources visit our website: www.menopauseandcancer.org Or follow us on Instagram @menopause_and_cancerJoin our Facebook group: www.facebook.com/groups/menopauseandcancerchathub

Free is not always free. Sometimes it costs you the most valuable asset you have. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down why trying to do everything yourself just to save money can actually keep you broke. Let's be real… If you spend five hours trying to fix a problem just to save fifty dollars… You are valuing your time at ten dollars an hour. And if you are the CEO… That math does not work. In this episode, you'll learn: Why doing everything yourself can become a massive liability How low-level tasks steal time from high-value revenue work Why hiring experts is often cheaper than wasting your own hours How to buy back your time and focus on the vision The truth is simple: Your job is not to save every penny. Your job is to build wealth. That means knowing when to delegate. Knowing when to hire. Knowing when to pay for speed. And knowing when your time is too valuable for the task in front of you. Too many founders stay stuck trying to save money… While losing the hours they need to actually scale. Free can be expensive. Cheap can be slow. And doing it yourself can become the biggest bottleneck in your business. Protect your time. Deploy your capital. Hire the experts. And keep leveling up. Your Network is your NETWORTH!

Most lawyers focus on how to argue damages. Very few spend enough time truly understanding the loss. And jurors can feel that. In this week's episode, I break down the 3 components every damages argument needs: Understanding the loss Valuing the loss Communicating the loss We also talk about: Why metaphor matters How small stories hit harder than big explanations A simple framework I use to think about non-economic damages Because damages aren't about formulas. They're about helping jurors understand what was taken. Love, Sari P.S. If this episode hit home for you, my live webinar on May 28th is going even deeper into how the H2H Method™ helps jurors connect to what actually matters in trial. We're going beyond the FHTH book and into what works in today's courtrooms.Register now → sariswears.com/webinar Quote: "When everything says trial should be this very formal, sterile process, we have to fight against that.

This New Moon in Taurus, "Soul Worth is Your Core Essence". This earth elemental provides a grounding and steadying energy in the life creation process. It is where the “stick-to-it attitude can be seen. This zodiac sign embodies the concepts, ideas and values of creating and building something of worth with lasting value. Taurus is the focal point for bringing ideas into form. Taurus is the complement to Scorpio, even while referred to as it's opposite sign in astrology discussions. The basic relationship is that the 2nd house associated with Taurus, is where you begin to recognize your own valued self-possessed resources. Scorpio, 8th house is how we exchange with others our valued resources, and they with us. (See previous episode, "Full Moon in Scorpio). One of the key aspects of Taurus is its association with manifestation of physical possessions, and the flow of money as a measure of resources, usable talents, abilities, and skills for exchange. This is the time to reflect on creating both inner and outer heart-centered connections, which offer experiences of personal truth. Instead of setting intentions from a place of being “not enough or good enough”now is the time to embrace your “Whole Self and Soul Worthiness”.Taurus is the opportunity to express deepest appreciation for being able to live life from Soul awareness. Living in the “Soul Worthiness” way is claiming the ability to be a creator with the Universal Source. This New Moon in Taurus is an invitation to reshape your mind to create a meaningful, passionate life that will stand the test of time. The Taurus archetype is the awareness of the “spark” animating the physical body. “I Manifest” principle. The Taurus energy is the nourishing of being through self worth.This New Moon in Taurus brings us into a profound awareness of being a part of Nature. Of the three Earth signs, Capricorn and Virgo, Taurus brings us into relationship with our physicality. Every person possesses a unique emanation and energetic life frequency. When a person actually listens to one's body in cooperation with mind and heart, this comes together as a unique type of intelligence. How do we access our unique personal body intelligence and inner wisdom? Our bodies literally speak to us through the feeling states. For example, you get up in the morning and you notice the birdsong, and interestingly, listening to the birds feels calming to you. In fact, you notice your whole body feels rather relaxed. On the other hand, you are walking along on a city street, there are lots people whizzing by, as well as the sounds of heavy machinery drilling, earth moving machines rumbling, and diesel fuel smells are in the air. Notice how your body sends you signals which are much different from the relaxation of the birdsong.The sign of Taurus provide us with greater understanding of how our magnificent bodies serve as our central "anchoring" point. The more we observe, listen and feel our own body-wise connection the more we can live greater heart-centered and Soul led lives. In essence, we need body/mind/spirit awareness. During this lunar cycle, the Taurus energy is providing an energetic framework for understanding how to ground and regulate our nervous systems, through tuning into the Earth's frequency. Currently, on a daily basis millions of people are voicing their feelings about emotional, bodily, mental unrest and psycho-spiritual disconnection. This New Moon is an invitation from the Universe to seek a quiet space from inside self. Inevitably the question comes up, "how can I feel peaceful, and where is restfulness to be found? It's inside each one of us, and the guide to self understanding is through our bodies, as the gateways to heart-centered insights. Prosperity and Abundance through Self-WorthTaurus is a feminine and fixed earth sign. Sound alchemy, your voice is deeply associated with the sign of Taurus. Singing, chanting, toning, humming, any sonic activity has a grounding effect, which helps to regulate the nervous system. Dancing, gardening, drumming and movement put us in alignment with our home planet, Earth.This sign represents the ability to create, produce and bring an idea into fruition. In our astrological map, it's the area of life where a person will persist and eventually achieve success, as a result of embracing one's physical body wisdom, sensual and tactile connection. There's understanding of self-worth, sacred valuing, and inner soul awareness.This sign is associated with the 2nd house on the zodiac wheel. It embodies the talents, gifts, abilities, developed skills, resources, feelings of self-worth and self-esteem. The guiding/ruling planet is Venus which provides the inner awareness of sight, smell, taste, touch, sound, as well as responses to expressions of beauty. The 2nd house reveals how the core attributes mentioned above are manifested in form, especially through financial flow, lived-values, self worth, sensual pleasure, peace, harmony and the ability to relate to others in all kinds of relationships.The placement of Taurus in your “Star Chart”, is the area of life where you are learning to balance financial security, self-expression, self-worth and clarify how to embrace physical reality. It is the overall “value center”. It's important to fully recognize that your self-worth does not depend on what other people say, or tell you who you are, or are "suppose to be".The Following Prompts will help in learning how to use your astrology chart as a guide for connecting deeper with the Taurus energy that will help you be more present for yourself.New Moon in Taurus with Venus Rulership/guidanceJournal Prompts:Natal Venus sign and house placement, and sign on cusp of 2nd house?____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Describe 5 important valued self-resources(gifts, talents, skills, inner “treasures) Describe Self-Worth and Self-Care rituals that hold importance for you.

How do you know if you're truly adding value to those around you, or just going through the motions?

After his lesson, Mark Cole and Chris Goede dive into their strategies for weaving these value-adding principles into your everyday leadership.

Let's talk about one of the most interesting free agency situations in the WNBA right now—and that's Natasha Cloud. Natasha Cloud is still on the board, and that's not because she can't play. It's because what she brings goes beyond stats—and not every front office knows how to price that. We're talking about an elite defender, a vocal leader, a culture-setter, and someone who holds organizations accountable. That's value… but it's not always something you see in a box score. Now let's get into who actually needs her.
What do diamond ring shopping, Uber pricing psychology, and active user metrics gone wrong have in common? They all highlight our complicated relationship with precision versus accuracy—and how that relationship can either build or destroy trust in our data. Arik Friedman from Atlassian joins us to unpack why being "about right" often beats being "exactly wrong," and why your nagging feeling that something's off might be a useful insight in and of itself. From the discipline of documenting assumptions to the art of knowing when to round your numbers, we tackle the very human challenge of working with data that's supposed to be objective but rarely is. Plus, we explore Twyman's Law (if data looks too good to be true, it probably is) and why sometimes your intuition is your last line of defense against embarrassing mistakes.

If you've ever felt a quiet tension between wanting your practice to support you and feeling like you shouldn't need that… you're not alone. This is something I see all the time with therapists—where caring deeply about clients starts to blur into overlooking your own needs. In my conversation with Tiffany McLain, we're looking at how that pattern shows up around money, and why it can feel so uncomfortable to want more, charge more, or build a practice that actually sustains you.Register for our free Overcoming Money Shame workshop series!Join me live on Zoom from Monday, April 20th to Thursday, April 23rd for a daily one-hour workshop at 12 PM PT / 3 PM ET.If you're tired of feeling confused, overwhelmed, or ashamed when it comes to your private practice finances, this free workshop series will help you move from money shame and confusion to clarity, calm and confidence—with practical tools and real support each day.Plus, you'll have a chance to win $500 just for attending live!Click here and sign up to save your spot or register to get the replays.When Taking Care of Yourself Feels UncomfortableA lot of therapists have been shaped by roles where being helpful, accommodating, and selfless was the expectation. Over time, that can turn into a quiet habit of minimizing your own needs—especially when it comes to your finances. So when it comes time to look at your numbers, set fees, or think about what you actually need to earn, it can feel off. Not because you're doing something wrong, but because it goes against a pattern you've been living in for a long time.That's where a lot of the tension comes from. Part of you knows your practice needs to work financially, and another part of you feels uncomfortable prioritizing that.Connection and Support Change the PatternWhat begins to change things is having space to talk about this openly. When you're in conversation with other therapists who are navigating the same thing, it becomes easier to question old assumptions and try something different.(00:05:28) Expectations of selflessness in psychology(00:10:55) Unpacking childhood money shame(00:13:58) Importance of a supportive community(00:22:56) Setting boundaries and raising fees(00:26:45) Valuing your work and worth(00:29:35) Overcoming shame around money(00:30:54) Money workshops for therapistsLetting Your Practice Support You TooYour work is about supporting others—but your practice needs to support you, too. When your finances are unclear or stretched, it shows up in your energy, your boundaries, and how sustainable your work feels. As you get clearer on what you need and allow yourself to adjust your fees, things start to feel more steady. A sustainable practice isn't built on overextending—it's built on balance, support, and letting your work give back to you.Get to Know Linzy Bonham: Linzy Bonham is a private practice therapist turned money coach who helps private practice owners and health professionals feel calm and in control of their finances through her coaching at Money Nuts & Bolts and her podcast Money Skills for Therapists.It all started when she saw her extremely skilled colleagues struggle with the money side of business.

The Drive wondered if the Royals are putting too much emphasis on left, right platoons as opposed to set daily lineup.
Grace Ybarra and Galen Clavio are back with a wide-ranging spring episode that starts with travel talk and Final Four week in Indianapolis — then shifts into the real headline: the college basketball transfer portal is open, and Indiana is staring at a roster rebuild in the NIL era. They discuss what Indiana knows right now (including Trent Sisley returning and the current roster math), what's still uncertain, and why the portal market has become so difficult to “price.” The conversation turns into a deep dive on how coaches evaluate players across leagues and levels (including the growing wave of international pros entering college basketball), why fit matters as much as stats, and the uncomfortable truth: for a 20-year-old in 2026, the Indiana basketball brand doesn't automatically close deals. Grace and Galen then shift to Indiana Football, and talk about the news that Fernando Mendoza is going to eschew attending the NFL Draft in Pittsburgh in favor of watching it from home. They close with a big-picture college sports discussion on SEC messaging — including the sudden push to eliminate the SEC Championship Game and what that says about playoff politics in the super-conference era.

In higher education over the past two centuries. He explores how the diversity principle—the belief that people with varied backgrounds, experiences, identities, and perspectives produce better outcomes by working together—first took root in the world's first modern research university, founded in Germany in 1810. This principle inspired John Stuart Mill's on Liberty, a cornerstone of academic freedom, and shaped Charles Eliot's transformation of Harvard in the late nineteenth century to encourage the “clash of ideas.” It also underpinned the twentieth-century equality efforts of figures like Thurgood Marshall, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Pauli Murray. By recounting the history of diversity through the lives and work of these and other influential thinkers, Oppenheimer makes a compelling case for embracing diversity as a central value in education and a vital ingredient for a vibrant intellectual and political culture. As contemporary backlash challenges diversity initiatives in government, business, and education, Oppenheimer—hailed by The New Yorker as America's “diversity detective”—reminds us that understanding the rich, two-hundred-year history of this idea is more important than ever.He is the author of “The Diversity Principle: The Story of a Transformative Idea." https://www.amazon.com/Diversity-Principle-Story-Transformative-Idea/dp/0300279892http://www.yourlotandparcel.org

Brooks Buser examines language as both barrier and key to gospel expansion. Working with Radius International to help missionaries learn language and culture, Buser demonstrates why linguistic skill directly determines gospel effectiveness. Language proficiency separates clear gospel communication from muffled, ineffective witness. Valuing language means valuing the gospel's spread, as words are the vehicles through which faith is communicated across cultures. Commit to learning language with gospel intentionality, whether at home or on the mission field. Scripture: Matthew 28 Topics: Language, Gospel Communication, Missions, Culture, Barriers

1. Senate Vote and Legislative Status The Senate voted 51–47 to proceed with debate on the Save America Act. All Republicans supported moving forward except Lisa Murkowski; Tom Tillis did not vote. Democrats are portrayed as unanimously opposed. The bill is now in debate, with Republicans attempting to build public support. The legislation would: Require proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote in federal elections. Require photo ID to cast a ballot. This is: A common-sense safeguard, not voter suppression. Necessary to maintain election integrity and public trust. Voting is framed as a sacred right earned through American history and constitutional amendments. The speech references: The 15th, 19th, and 26th Amendments as expansions of voting rights. A U.S. Supreme Court ruling (Indiana voter ID case) that upheld photo ID laws. Facts are laid out that: Minority voter participation increased after voter ID laws. The Court rejected arguments that voter ID is discriminatory. 81% of Americans support voter ID laws. Roughly 75% of African Americans and 80%+ of Hispanics support voter ID. 70% of rank-and-file Democrats support voter ID, despite elected Democrats opposing it. Democratic opposition is elitist and disconnected from voters. 1B. Immigration and Election Integrity Link The speaker claims: Over 12 million undocumented immigrants entered the U.S. during the Biden administration. Border security improved dramatically after Trump’s second inauguration. The argument suggests Democrats: Intentionally allowed mass immigration. Oppose voter ID to enable non-citizen voting, allegedly to gain political power. This claim is central to the narrative that Democrats are undermining democracy. 1C. Cultural and Moral Critiques of Democrats Democrats are accused of: Misusing civil rights language (e.g., calling voter ID “Jim Crow”). Holding minorities to lower expectations. Valuing ideology over national unity, faith, and tradition. Voting is compared to everyday activities that already require ID (flying, banking, alcohol purchases). 2. Who is Texas Democratic Senate Nominee James Talarico The nominee is: A radical progressive falsely presented as moderate. Using religious language to promote views on gender identity, abortion, and masculinity. His statements on: God being non-binary, Transgender issues, Abortion, American symbols, Veganism and climate changeare used to depict him as culturally out of touch with Texas voters. 3. César Chávez Hero of the Political Left A New York Times exposé alleges sexual abuse by César Chávez. Chávez was: A leftist icon whose crimes were allegedly ignored due to ideology. A symbol of ethnic tokenism and collectivist politics. The broader scope: The left protects immoral figures if they serve political goals. Identity politics harms rather than empowers minority communities. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

In this episode, Heather and Christine Landis gently (and sometimes unapologetically) challenge the way we think about productivity, responsibility, and the stories we tell ourselves about success. Together, they unpack the invisible labor so many women carry, the exhaustion of decision fatigue, and the cultural conditioning that convinces us we must do everything ourselves to be "good" partners, mothers, leaders, or humans. This isn't a conversation about outsourcing tasks for the sake of efficiency; it's about buying back your time so you can reclaim your energy, your joy, and your capacity to live intentionally rather than by default. Christine invites us to reimagine what it means to be "time rich," to stop apologizing for spaciousness, and to consciously plan for joy as a foundational part of an aligned life. What to listen for: ✨ Understanding house management, and giving ourselves permission to outsource ✨ Identifying the invisible load you carry and the decision fatigue that comes with it ✨ Becoming "time rich" by letting go of the need to do everything yourself "It's not about delegating laundry or delegating meal prep. It's about reclaiming your fucking life and reclaiming how you want to feel." ✨ If we want men to step up, we as women need to better value our own time ✨ Giving yourself more capacity with that time, not doing more of something else ✨ The importance of not judging or defending the spaciousness you bought back "Planning for joy is really important. You can't be reactionary. You have to put that thought out there and look ahead into your week, your month. It doesn't have to be this big five-year plan, but even just protecting your time on a doable, regular basis." ✨ Focusing on the life you want rather than living by default ✨ Planning for your joy instead of being reactive to what's coming at you ✨ Valuing yourself and your time differently, and the challenges that come with it About Christine Landis: Christine Landis is the founder of Peacock Parent and the creator of Proxy, a text-based thinking partner for home life.
