Podcasts about what is happening

Flash fiction writer Kayleigh Shoen (or as we like to call her: Princess of Soup) joined us again to talk about all things Punky Brewster related after we watched The Perils of Punky!We started by watching this commercial for a Punky doll.This commercial is super freaky because it starts with a doll and then shows an entire family of Punky clones. WHAT IS HAPPENING???Anyway, they say at the end that Brandon and Glomer are sold separately so all of us were like, “Wait, who’s Glomer?” And that is how we ended up watching this interminable segment of the Punky Brewster cartoon, Glomer’s Story. There’s a part two, but none of us could bear to spend another several minutes on this one. Glomer was voiced by Frank Welker, a prolific voice actor we have seen before in such things as The Chipmunk Adventure, where he voiced the villain’s two yappy dogs. Fun fact: he was also voice of the anaconda in Anaconda.From here we moved on to some commercials for things Kayleigh remembered from her childhood. We started with Get in Shape, Girl. This was a whole toy enterprise that revolved around telling little girls they really needed to workout more… cool. Kayleigh had the Get in Shape, Girl barre.Kayleigh was so into this leotard and tights aesthetic that she wore it under her regular clothes. Ahhh, the 80s!This led us to discuss LA Gear and British Knights shoes and the terribleness of women’s fashion and its lack of pockets.From there we went to a non-gendered exercise toy: Pogoball! We heard this as telling us we could become a Pogoballmancer. Please, someone make us this fan art.We looked into whether adult sized Pogoballs exist and found these terrifying Kangaroo Sky Runner shoes. Then we moved to She Ra. We watched a sequence of these and at first weren’t into the song, but then it took over our brains…From She Ra to Frosta and Catra… who meowsFinally the Crystal CastleKayleigh and Julia both had some of these dolls, but Geoffrey had some awesome He Man action figures. We then talked about the various He Man cartoons and movies. Which… is maybe a little bit of a sneak peek at what you can expect to hear from us next… Meanwhile, Kayleigh introduced us to the concept of the collectible Masters of the Universe sticker book, where you had a book, but in order to see the pictures, you had to buy a tone of sticker packs that were sold in mixed lots like baseball cards.

Transcript: It is the parent-teacher conference season, and along with that comes a lot of anxiety and questions for both parents and students!   Today I will address some common questions that I get from parents so you can stop wondering and start taking an active role in the parent-teacher conferences day! Common Question: Do I still need to go to Parent-Conferences if I know my kid has good grades in all their classes?  Answer:  No, you don't have to go to the conferences; however, I suggest that you send an email to all the teachers and verify that there aren't any other outstanding issues that should be discussed.  School is more than just grades.  Parent-Teacher conferences are an excellent time to talk about behavior problems, attendance issues, social concerns, and next grade level preparation.   Make sure that the teacher doesn't have anything that they want to discuss with you. Common Question: I know my child has some low grades and/or some behavioral concerns.  Is there anything I should do before conferences to prepare for talking to the teacher(s)?  Answer:  Contact the teacher via email and voice your concerns.  Ask the teacher(s) if they want to meet you during conferences or at a different time to discuss the issues.  The reason you want to do this is, conferences are very regimented.  Usually, each family is only allowed a specific amount of time with the teacher to keep the day moving along.  If the teacher thinks you will need extra time, then this must be prepared before the conference day.   Perhaps the teacher can give you two conference slots or other arrangements can be made to provide you with the time you need to talk about your concerns. Also, you may want to request an administrator, counselor or another specific teacher to be in attendance at the conference.  This should be scheduled ahead of time. Lastly, bring in all the documentation that the teacher may need.  IEP, doctor recommendations, a list of concerns you see at home, 504 plans, behavioral plans, etc Common Question: What if I am at the conference, and I find out that my child has some academic and/or behavioral concerns I didn't know about?  What should I do? Answer:  Picture it…. A different day when I was a working full-time teacher….. I have a conference with a parent.  They storm in the room and sit with arms crossed and obviously agitated.   They begin to tell me how disappointed they are that their kid has a bad grade and how come they didn't know about this sooner! As a teacher, the parent scenario I mentioned above is very frustrating.  I didn't even know the parent wasn't getting your emails. I had no idea that they were mad AND from the beginning- they thought I was the bad guy.  It is possible that your child acts differently at school than at home, so keep an open mind when entering the classroom to talk to your teacher.  Could the teacher be in the wrong- sure it is possible, but don't automatically assume because conferences are complicated.   There are 3 perspectives to consider: Teacher Parent Student So, how do you get an accurate story from both the child and the teacher?  You need to know how to ask the right questions!  Today, I will be giving you LOTS of questions that you should consider asking!  Please don't worry about scrambling to write it all down.  All you have to do is go to theimpactfulparent.com/resources and download the FREE parent-teacher conferences worksheet.   You can even print the worksheet out and take it in with you when you go to talk to your teachers.  So, Let's get started with what to ask the Teacher! Have they been trying to contacting you? If not, why?  It is ok to ask.  Maybe they have too many students.  Maybe they have emailed, called or sent home notes and you haven't been getting them.  Maybe your child hasn't been telling you.  Maybe the school makes YOU responsible for checking grades online?   Find out where the communication break-down began. I have had parents ask me things like, “I have been looking at their assignments on-line, But it seems the teacher isn't keeping up with inputting grades?” What should I do?  I say, email the teacher. Confirm this is true. Email bugging is ok.  Just be tactful.   They can have 30 students in a class and that is a lot to grade!  English teachers, in particular, have a lot of grading.  Find out why the assignments aren't posted, there may be a good reason, there may not be-but you are making the teacher aware that you are being an active participant in your child's education and this alone is good and may even get them to be more on-the-ball. Now picture this story:  I walk into parent-teacher conferences to find out that my child hasn't been doing their work.  What!  I saw them do it!  They were working on that project all week!  Those math problems were finished and they put them in their backpack!  How can the teacher tell me that my child hasn't been turning in the work when I have seen for myself that it has been done! Whether your child is doing their work or not, you need to find out WHAT IS HAPPENING?   What is the root of the problem?  Is someone lying here? Is the work getting eaten by the dog each night?  Is my kid just being lazy and not being responsible?  Again, you don't until you ask the right questions!  Here are more questions to ask the teacher: What caused this? What is the teacher's opinion about why the grade is so low? Is this a lack of studying? Is it just difficult content? Is it a lack of attention in class? Are there missing assignments? Remember my story about the child who I SAW do the homework, but the teacher said that they weren't doing their work?  Well, this story ends with the parent looking in the child's backpack and locker.  Yep.  All the assignments were there and completed but never turned in.  Sometimes our kids lack executive functioning skills and it is difficult for them to get a piece of paper from HOME to Backpack to Locker to classroom to teacher's hands.  Next, ask what can the student do to erase the past? Is there anything? Can they make anything up? Can anything be turned in for partial credit? Can they re-do tests?  This is up to the teacher and the integrity of the class.   Remember that teachers are doing more than teaching CONTENT.  They are teaching responsibility.   You want your kid to be a successful adult.  They need to learn to get work done on-time, meet deadlines, not procrastinate….  For future job success.  If you give too much leniency, you are teaching them that the rules don't apply to them. Next, ask the teacher what can the student do moving forward? Can we create a plan for keeping the student accountable? Can the teacher sign off that homework is written in their planner? Can the teacher post when big assignments are due? Can the student come in for extra help?  Can the student get a tutor? It is also important you understand the environment that you want your child to be successful in. What is the typical workload each night? …. Know the expectations of the class. If they are supposed to be studying 2 times a week and your child is only studying once- this could be the problem. A lot of questions to ask the teacher but knowing expectations and being on the same page as the teacher is step 1 for your child's success! Now let's move to the child. Let's say you find out that your child has a less than desirable grade.  After getting the teacher's point of view, start asking questions to the student.   They are apart of the problem so they should also be apart of the solution too!  Here are questions to ask your child. What is their point of view on their grade? Do they think it is good enough or bad? What part of this grade do they take responsibility for? Can they admit that they have not studied, not turned in work, or that the material is difficult? What do they think they can do moving forward to make improvements? When did the problem start? Or what TYPE of assignments does this happen most often? For example, maybe they do good on homework assignments but don't do well with in-class work because they get distracted? Maybe they are good with smaller assignments but find bigger, more complex assignments more challenging? Do they feel they need extra support? From a parent or from the teacher? Do they feel that they can improve on their own? Where are the old assignments now? Did you review the content you missed and needed to improve, or did they just throw the old papers and grades into the trash after they got them back? A lot of subjects build on past knowledge like Math or languages.  If they aren't taking the time to review what they missed and learn it- then they are digging a deeper hole for themselves for the next assessment. What does their locker/backpack/binders look like? Are they organized, messy, or even scattered? How can having a more organized locker/backpack/binder improve their work?  You may have to walk them through this reasoning. Have you asked for help throughout the semester? Who have you been talking to about your grades? Anyone?  Have you reached out for any additional help?  Have you advocated for yourself to re-do or submit assignments late? Some kids just let the whole semester slide by before taking action because they feel helpless and simply don't know what to do.  You may have to walk your child through steps that need to take to advocate for themselves.  What do their study habits look like? Do they have a schedule for working on homework? Are they procrastinating or doing homework in front of the TV? Once grades drop, study habits and expectations should be redefined.  What are their goals for this class? For this school year? How does not reaching their goals affect their future?  Are their goals attainable and realistic?  Getting some kids to forward-think and see natural consequences for their actions, is difficult for some.  They literally don't have the connections developed in their brain to make the links.  You may have to spell it out for them! Have you been attending class and paying attention? Are you distracted in class? IF so, what can you do to improve your attention? Have you missed class a lot? How do you make up work when class is missed? What steps do you take to make-up work? Asking your child all these questions are getting down to the WHY the grades are low.  If you start creating punishments or consequences without knowing the Why, will likely be ineffective.  Be ready to hear the teacher out. Try not to go on the defensive automatically. Teachers see "mama and daddy bear" stance a lot but remember your child may act differently at school than they do at home. Keep in mind that most teachers want your child to be happy and successful too! Your goals are the same!  Teachers and parents should have a partnership.  Start by asking the teacher for their side of the story.  Now give the child a chance to speak their side of the story and express their concerns.   The goal now is to correct what can be repaired and move forward with a plan of action for improvement.  Discuss the plan together: teacher, parent, and student.  Make sure the plan is measurable,  attainable/doable, and there are concrete explanations.  For example, the student can not just say, “I will study more for tests.”  Instead, the goals should be specific; for example, I will study every Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday night for 30 minutes on this class.  You may even add WHEN they will study?  Designate a specific “homework hour” each evening. Example of a goals sheet moving forward: Student will study every Monday-Thursday for 30 minutes. Student will keep locker clean and parents will check it every Friday at pick up Student will come in every Wednesday morning early to get questions answered. Student will study vocabulary words for the week Sunday night for 20 minutes. Student will not sit by friends in class.  The assigned seat will be front row. Student will not partner with friends for group projects.  Student will show their parent their planner each evening and tell them about homework. Student will check the school calendar for assignments and announcements every day at lunch. Once the plan is made, you should write it down.  This is important.  Writing it down to reference it back later is extremely helpful later when the child may “forget” some of the plans, or you need to remind them of their commitment. Lastly, make a reward and consequences system.  There should be 2 types of rewards, one is for small short-term gains that you can give for immediate feedback. Then there can be a bigger reward for maintaining the schedule the whole week or month.  Lastly, make a plan for consequences if they aren't holding up their end of the deal.  * This agreement INCLUDING THE REWARDS AND CONSEQUENCES, should be made WITH the student. They should agree to the contract and have input on the rewards and punishments. Buy-in from the student is essential and if they are not apart of creating the contract- they will never have buy-in.

Episode 262: What Is Happening to Small Businesses in Europe? Weighing risk, ambiguity, and uncertainty are some of the skills to be mastered as entrepreneurial leaders. When you ease into the truth of uncertainty, one quickly realizes you aren’t the only one who can’t keep it all together during times of change. Countries don’t even have it all together either. In Europe, ambiguity and uncertainty are swirling around Covid-19 pandemic restrictions, vaccines, and Brexit. After 47 years of membership within the European bloc, the United Kingdom (England, Ireland, and Scotland) voted in 2016 to withdraw membership. Most things were kept the same until this year. You will learn of the nightmare for truckers/lorries and the impact of these changes on middle-class people. DOWNLOADSmall businesses are teetering on the brink of disaster as travel has changed, red tape at the border is causing fresh fish spoilage for some. A new immigration system is being implemented. Buying and selling have become trickier. The list of changes is extensive. John Patching offers his perspective on how he and other small businesses deal with this year’s changes. His research and what he learns from small business owners give you a sense of what is happening in the UK, Brussels (Capital of Belgium), France, Italy, Spain,  and Germany. Some countries in Europe weren’t online with their goods and services, which adds to the complications of small business survival. The entrepreneurial spirit needs to be unleashed.John Patching is not a reporter or a small business expert. He is a holistic healer, meditation tutor, and experienced life coach from Oxfordshire, England. I have been mentoring John in his private practice over the last year and a half. He also consults with me as I work through my own traumas; he is a gift from the Universe. I was floored when he described what they all are needing to do just to survive right now.John gives some history of why Brexit was appealing to voters, the pros and cons. He poses legitimate questions about fairness regarding the United Kingdom and its rights within its borders. The UK is in a lockdown for an indefinite period due to Covid-19 numbers. The circumstances have become even more distressed with the new rules of Brexit.Underlying any bad breakups are lies and deception to keep the interested party from discovering the truth. That seems to be the case with the United Kingdom as it works out border agreements. Red tape for small and large businesses has slowed getting food and other products to their regular trading partners within the EU. They now have to pay taxes on all their goods and services and limits on some goods. Living amongst the countries will involve having a visa and other negotiated Brexit changes. Citizens are disillusioned about the full implications of Brexit and reckoning with what they have been sold, their own assumptions, and the truth of their reality. Tears of release can shed light on the ambiguity of the circumstances they are in and release some of the trauma encircling us all. We finish with some inspiration and the silver-lining kind of news we crave. Oxford has developed its own vaccine. The UK is on target to meet incredible targets of vaccinating 15M people. Despite the bleakness, the Government rollout is unified and coming together. The UK is free to develop its own trade agreements with other countries outside of the EU. John helps you envision how you can see yourself in the river’s flow to form new patterns as you release the old ones.Place yourself in Europe.While listening, if you have entrepreneurial ideas or questions, please email, or call me. We can do a follow-up show that includes you.“We can use this opportunity to start waking up. If we do decide to start surrendering to our uncontrollable situation, letting go of resistance and resentment, we will have no shortage of opportunities to learn and grow. Our world will become our greatest teacher and ally.

Beginning poem:Me: Hey God.God: Hello.....Me: I'm falling apart. Can you put me back together?God: I would rather not.Me: Why?God: Because you aren't a puzzle.Me: What about all of the pieces of my life that are falling down onto the ground?God: Let them stay there for a while. They fell off for a reason. Take some time and decide if you need any of those pieces back.Me: You don't understand! I'm breaking down!God: No - you don't understand. You are breaking through. What you are feeling are just growing pains. You are shedding the things and the people in your life that are holding you back. You aren't falling apart. You are falling into place. Relax. Take some deep breaths and allow those things you don't need anymore to fall off of you. Quit holding onto the pieces that don't fit you anymore. Let them fall off. Let them go.Me: Once I start doing that, what will be left of me?God: Only the very best pieces of you.Me: I'm scared of changing.God: I keep telling you - YOU AREN'T CHANGING!! YOU ARE BECOMING!Me: Becoming who?God: Becoming who I created you to be! A person of light and love and charity and hope and courage and joy and mercy and grace and compassion. I made you for more than the shallow pieces you have decided to adorn yourself with that you cling to with such greed and fear. Let those things fall off of you. I love you! Don't change! ... Become! Become! Become who I made you to be. I'm going to keep telling you this until you remember it.Me: There goes another piece.God: Yep. Let it be.Me: So ... I'm not broken?God: Of course Not! - but you are breaking like the dawn. It's a new day.
