What does it look like to assess and treat severe problem behavior when safety concerns have become so significant that a student can no longer participate successfully in their typical school environment? In this episode, Dr. Cory Whelan joins me to discuss his work at Seasons Behavioral Services, where he and Dr. Kara LaCroix have developed an intensive model for assessing and treating dangerous behavior while helping students build the skills they'll need to return to less restrictive settings. Cory brings an unusual perspective to this work. He is dually certified as a speech-language pathologist and behavior analyst, and his career has taken him from challenging school environments in Washington, D.C., to doctoral training at Western New England University, where he worked with Dr. Greg Hanley and became involved in the development and application of practical functional assessment and skill-based treatment approaches. We talk about how Seasons works with students who may be waiting for an out-of-district placement—or whose behavior has become too dangerous for their current educational setting—and what happens during their approximately three-month intensive treatment model. Cory describes how his team uses a universal protocol when students first arrive, with an emphasis on minimizing evocative situations and creating conditions in which students can safely engage with staff before assessment begins. From there, we walk through their approach to caregiver interviews, practical functional assessment, and skill-based treatment. We also spend quite a bit of time discussing something that can sometimes get lost when talking about highly technical treatment procedures: clinical judgment. Cory explains why he trains staff not simply to follow a protocol mechanically, but to continually evaluate what is happening in front of them and make decisions that prioritize the safety and dignity of the person they're serving. We discuss what that looks like when problem behavior occurs unexpectedly, why backing off from a demand isn't necessarily a clinical failure, and how thoughtful decision-making fits within function-based treatment. We also get into some of the nuances of conducting effective functional assessment interviews, including: Building rapport before jumping into questions about problem behavior. Identifying precursors and subtle indicators that a situation is becoming difficult. Asking about activities caregivers or staff may have stopped attempting altogether. Using clinical judgment alongside structured interview tools. What it means when an analysis doesn't produce the behavior you expected to see. Finally, we discuss one of the hardest parts of intensive behavioral treatment: generalization and transition. A student may make tremendous progress in a highly trained treatment environment, but what happens when they move to a school or program with different staff, resources, and contingencies? Cory shares both the successes and limitations they've encountered when trying to support receiving programs and maintain treatment gains across settings. If you're interested in practical functional assessment and skill-based treatment—particularly how these approaches work with severe behavior in real-world clinical and educational environments—I think you'll get a lot out of this conversation.

How did the state become Christian in late antiquity? Many scholars have traced the Christianization of the Roman world in the centuries following the conversion of the emperor Constantine in 312 CE. Robin Whelan, however, turns his attention away from the usual suspects in such accounts-emperors, empresses, bishops, ascetics, and other holy people-to consider a surprisingly understudied set of late ancient Christians: those who served the state as courtiers, bureaucrats, and governors. By tracing the requirements of regimes, the expectations of subjects, and patterns of engagement with churches and churchmen, he argues that that those who served the state in late antiquity could be seen-and indeed, could see themselves-as distinctly Christian authority figures-just as much as the emperors and kings whom they served, and the bishops and ascetics whom they governed. Serving the Christian State in Late Antiquity (Cambridge University Press, 2026) is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core. New books in late antiquity is presented by Ancient Jew Review Robin Whelan is Reader in Mediterranean History at the University of Liverpool.

Frowning Hours is the indie folk-rock project of Irish singer-songwriter and actor Ger Kelly, whose evocative songwriting and distinctive voice have quickly earned him a growing reputation on Ireland's live music scene. Before stepping into the spotlight as a recording artist, Kelly spent more than 15 years working as a professional actor, performing on some of Ireland's most prestigious stages, including The Abbey Theatre, The Gate Theatre, and with Druid Theatre Company. His theatre career saw him appear in acclaimed productions of works by Sean O'Casey, Shakespeare, and many other celebrated playwrights. Music has long been an integral part of Kelly's artistic journey. His haunting vocals featured in numerous theatrical productions, from original scores by composer Tom Lane to works by Stephen Sondheim. It was through these experiences that he discovered a passion for songwriting and began developing his own musical voice. He later studied songwriting at BIMM Dublin, leaving the course early when a major acting opportunity arose. Since launching Frowning Hours in 2024, Kelly has built a loyal and steadily growing audience. His first six singles have received widespread radio support and critical praise, establishing him as one of Ireland's most promising emerging folk artists. His latest release, 'The Orchard' marks the next chapter in a musical journey that has been years in the making. As a live performer, Kelly has appeared on some of Ireland's biggest stages and festivals, including Whelan's, Electric Picnic, and All Together Now, and has shared bills with and supported acclaimed artists such as Mick Flannery. Alongside his music career, Kelly continues to work as an actor and recently appeared in the Netflix series ‘Bodkin' as Teddy, a blacksmith described as having "the voice of an angel", a fitting reflection of the qualities that define his music. Combining the storytelling instincts of a seasoned actor with the emotional honesty of a songwriter, Frowning Hours creates intimate, atmospheric songs that resonate long after the final note. His debut single, ‘Someone Who Won't' and all subsequent releases are available on major streaming platforms. On his latest single, ‘The Orchard', Frowning Hours delivers a poignant meditation on empathy, connection and the quiet hope of finding our way back to one another. Blending warm indie-folk textures with buoyant melodies, the song reflects on a world where we're more connected than ever, yet often feel profoundly alone. Rather than offering easy answers, ‘The Orchard' invites listeners to look beyond first impressions and recognise the unseen experiences everyone carries. It's a gentle call for compassion, understanding and the restoration of the sense of community that can often feel absent in modern life. “‘The Orchard' seems to change its meaning for me every now and again,” says Ger Kelly. “Ultimately, I think it's a song about the resuscitation of a sense of community that seems to be lost these days. It's a call for compassion and understanding. It's very strange to me how, in the golden age of communication, there's so much isolation. I guess I'm just trying to say, ‘Hello in there,' like John Prine advised.” With its thoughtful lyricism and quietly uplifting spirit, ‘The Orchard' captures the emotional honesty that has become a hallmark of Frowning Hours' songwriting. It's a reminder that even in an increasingly disconnected world, empathy remains one of our most powerful ways of finding each other again.
Cork City based indie-folk band BRIARS releaser their high-octane new single, ‘Roimh'. With a sound that ranges from fragile subtlety to raucous energy, BRIARS weave shades of alternative folk, indie, pop, rock and Irish traditional music that combine into a sprawling and irresistibly energetic sound. Having shared bills with groups such as The Scratch, The Wran, Leevy and Billow Wood and performing at some of the country's leading folk festivals (Whelan's Folk and Trad Fest, Galway Folk Festival, Guinness Cork Jazz Festival, Cork Roots Festival) alongside Electric Picnic and more, the six-piece are quickly gaining “must-see” status as a live act. With touches of Arcade Fire, Bear's Den, Hudson Taylor and The Riptide Movement, upcoming single ‘Roimh' (the Irish word for ‘before', pronounced ‘Riv') is a song rooted in perseverance. Celebrating the kinetic energy and momentum that is born from hope and human connection, the single doesn't linger on endings, but on the beauty of the build-up itself; embracing the journey regardless of the outcome. The band explain: “The idea is that even if things don't go as planned, or something ends badly, that it does not negate the time that was spent trying to get there. It would be easy to think “what's the point in doing something if it's just going to end anyway?”, but it would take us no where.” They add: “It is partly about the struggle to achieve certain things, and trying to have the persistence to keep going; whether it's moving on from a relationship that doesn't end well, or the devastation after someone has passed away, but you're looking back fondly on all the memories. The bad at the end doesn't discount the good that came before.” Dashed with the band's signature Irish traditional feel, the song features an array of instruments - bouzouki, bass, drums, piano, harmonium, synth, fiddle and accordion - which captures their ability to bridge old and new with ease.

Brian Whelan is a professional musician with a range of impressive credits to his name. He's supported Post Malone's early forays into country music, was a mainstay in Dwight Yoakam's studio band and supported one of last year's best albums, Jake Owen's Dreams to Dream. In addition to his studio work, Whelan is a regular on stages across Southern California and beyond. Like so many musicians based in Los Angeles, he called Altadena home. The proximity to recording studios, affordable and interesting housing and a slower pace of life were appealing. Along with his wife, they welcomed their twins home to the city, and not long after that, their lives changed, along with so many others, on a windy night in January. More than 9,400 structures burned down in that fire that raged through the hills and neighborhood east of Los Angeles. The Dads speak with Whelan about music, the impact of the Eaton fire on the music scene in LA, especially the roots, Americana and country scenes, and how being a dad, growing up and getting "Pro Vibed" have provided balance in his life and approach. Show Notes:2:20 - Brian claims he knew he'd be a performer at 6 years old—and never looked back. As he got older, he became a “liner note junky” and knew he wanted to be one of those guys.4:22 - Becoming a father drastically shifted his priorities and changed his idea of time. Brian flipped the script on Dave and Donnie and put the question on them -- always a good guest power mover. 7:50 - The Kid Happy Hour: Putting on the greats, right after kid dinner and before bath and bed, the family gets some music, the parents get some drinks, and everyone dances. 9:59 - Brian has mixed feelings about having his kids go into the arts, but he will support them no matter what. But that is sometimes a bit harder said than done, and the guys explore that kind of support. 15:35 - Exploring how a session player helps develop and advance the sound of an artist's album, Brian explains that he sees himself as a connector and supporter of music. Almost as important is how he's matured as a person, and how his fatherhood and getting “Pro Vibed” have played into that process. 20:05 - We talk about Dwight Yoakam and how much Brian learned and grew when working in his band. 24:00 - Discussing Jake Owen's most recent album and his role in “the five-piece band in the middle of Hollyweird.” 31:50 - The impact of a local haunt on the trajectory of Brian's career -- a personal history of the Cinema Bar in Culver City. 37:05 - Eaton Fire and the long-term impact. Brian lost his first home, most of his guitars and most of the family photos. But his kids gave him and his wife purpose. He had a place to put his energy -- and his kids gave him an incredible gift. 45: 18 - The Dad Life Sound Check!Thank you for listening.

Georgia G is a 25-year-old singer/songwriter from Malahide, Dublin, now based in New York City. Writing songs for as long as she can remember, Georgia draws inspiration from artists including Sheryl Crow, Fleetwood Mac and Adele, blending elements of pop, indie rock with hints of country into her own vibrant sound. Georgia has been selected as Track of the Week multiple times, earning recognition for her infectious songwriting and distinctive sound. She has since sold out headline shows in both The Workman's Cellar and Whelan's, establishing herself as one of Dublin's exciting emerging live acts. Georgia was also chosen to perform as part of Hot Press' “Young & Emerging” series, where the magazine described her as a “hotly tipped” artist, while the Fingal Independent wrote that Georgia G is “about to take the music scene by storm.” Since then, Georgia has continued performing extensively across Ireland and the United States. In 2024, she performed on the Coca-Cola Stage at Electric Picnic, one of Ireland's biggest music festivals. In October, she also supported Aaron Rowe at a show connected with the Guinness Storehouse in Chicago. Now living in New York City, Georgia is currently playing a year-long residency in a Broadway bar while recording her debut EP before returning to Ireland for its release. Currently, she is working on music with producer Ollie Deacon-Lowpines (CMAT, Ailbhe Reddy) in a studio in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. The upcoming project captures the experience of moving to New York in your twenties — balancing ambition, heartbreak, nightlife and homesickness — while continuing to shape the explosive and emotionally honest sound Georgia G has become known for.
Send us Fan MailWhat do you do when the business, career, or life plan you built your identity on suddenly disappears?In this episode of Spartan Leadership, Josh Kosnick sits down with Dr. Christine Whelan, the “purpose professor,” to talk about why purpose is a verb—something you do every day with your gifts and values—rather than a job title or a single life calling.They unpack what happens when everything falls apart: Josh's story of losing his business five years ago, empty nest transitions, career changes, and the quiet identity crises that come when a chapter ends. Dr. Whelan explains how to separate your purpose from your role, why transitions make purpose feel more urgent, and how to design a life where you spend more time on the things you're gifted at and actually enjoy.You'll hear a research‑backed definition of purpose, a fresh take on happiness as a byproduct (not the goal), and a practical framework for living with pro‑social purpose—using your gifts, in keeping with your values, to positively impact other people in the community. If you've ever asked “What now?” after a loss, layoff, or big life change, this conversation is for you.In this episode:• Why “purpose is a verb,” not a one‑time discovery or slogan• How to think about purpose when your business, role, or season ends• Designing work you love using a simple “T‑chart” exercise• Purpose in parenting and raising kids who live their values• Pro‑social purpose, “eco‑you” vs “ego‑you,” and why community mattersConnect with Dr. Christine Whelan: - Website: https://christinewhelan.com- Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cbwhelan/Connect with Josh Kosnick:- LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/joshkosnick- Instagram: https://instagram.com/joshkosnick- Website: https://joshkosnick.com #PurposeIsAVerb #ChristineWhelan #SpartanLeadership #PurposeAfterLoss #LifeTransitions #FindYourPurpose #ChristianLeadership #BusinessLeadership #PersonalGrowth #Podcast Support the showCONNECT WITH ME HERE:FacebookInstagramLinkedInTwitterTikTokYouTubeSUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST HERE:Apple PodcastsSpotifyYouTube
In this episode of Dean's Chat, Drs. Jeffrey Jensen and Johanna Richey welcome Dr. James Whelan, attending faculty with the OSF St. Catherine Residency Program, Chair of the APMA Education Committee, Wisconsin Podiatry Examining Board Chair, and an emerging leader in the podiatric profession. The conversation explores Dr. Whelan's journey into podiatry, his passion for resident education, and the leadership lessons he has gained through clinical practice, organized medicine, and family life.Dr. Whelan shares how a chance opportunity to shadow multiple surgical specialties as an undergraduate student led him to podiatry. While the procedures themselves were fascinating, it was the podiatrist's professionalism, kindness, and interactions with patients and staff that ultimately inspired his career path. From there, the discussion shifts to residency education, where Dr. Whelan reflects on the profound responsibility of training future physicians. Drawing from both positive and challenging experiences during his own residency, he discusses the importance of creating psychologically safe learning environments, fostering confidence, and using coaching principles to help residents overcome obstacles and achieve their potential.The conversation highlights the evolving culture of medical education and the balance between maintaining high expectations while supporting learners through constructive feedback. Dr. Whelan shares practical examples of how individualized coaching and mentorship can transform struggling residents into confident future colleagues. He also discusses the unique privilege of working with residents and how teaching continually sharpens his own clinical skills and perspectives.Beyond residency training, Dr. Whelan offers insights from his service on the Wisconsin Podiatry Examining Board, where he reviews licensure and disciplinary matters. He emphasizes that many complaints stem not from poor clinical care but from breakdowns in communication, documentation, and professionalism—valuable lessons for practitioners at every stage of their careers.In recognition of Father's Day, the discussion concludes with a meaningful conversation about balancing leadership, clinical practice, and family. Dr. Whelan reflects on how becoming a husband and father reshaped his definition of success, emphasizing that professional achievements are important, but relationships and presence with loved ones matter most. His thoughtful perspective on mentorship, leadership, and service offers valuable lessons for students, residents, and experienced practitioners alike.This episode is a powerful reminder that excellence in medicine extends far beyond clinical skill—it is built through kindness, coaching, advocacy, lifelong learning, and a commitment to helping others succeed.
Conas taoi? How are ye? Welcome back to Candlelit Tales, the podcast where we tell Irish myths, carried by an original musical score. We recently wrapped up the Fianna Saga, and we're taking a well-earned break from storytelling to bring you this longer, more relaxed chat.

There could be nowhere more fitting to discuss the life of Edward Fitzgerald than upstairs in the Lord Edward, as part of Culture Date with Dublin 8. That he was born into privilege is clear, but Fitzgerald also rejected it, his sister recalling that "he was a Paddy and no more; he desired no other title than this." Annie Hughes is a singer and a member of An Góilín Traditional Singers. Fergus Whelan is author of Enemies of the State: Richard Musgrave, the Rebellion of 1798 and the Making of Sectarian Irish History.
Irish singer-songwriter Mark Geary left Ireland with a one-way ticket to New York and a heart full of hope over twenty years ago. There, in Sin-é cafe, Mark honed his craft and sang alongside the best of them, including the late Jeff Buckley. Time Out NY said, “His delicate songs about love and defiance recall Richard Thompson and John Lennon.” Geary has featured on bills with musicians as diverse as Glen Hansard, John Prine, Joe Strummer, Elvis Costello, The Pretenders, Coldplay and The Frames amongst others, plus extensive headlining tours in Europe, the US and Switzerland. He has composed the full score for three films - Loggerheads (2005), Steel City (2006) and Sons of Perdition (2010) - and has had many songs featured in films and TV programmes. In 2022, he completed a sell-out month-long residency in the new Little Whelan's in Dublin where, with his band, he welcomed special guests each week and personally curated the shows. 2023 saw Geary tour the north and central regions of Italy as well as Ireland, selling out Whelan's (upstairs), Couglan's, Phil Grimes (Co. Waterford) and Castle St. (Co. Mayo). His latest album, In The Time Of Locusts, was released in February 2024, and was recorded in his cottage in the forest with the help of Ruth O' Mahony Brady, Glen Hansard, Dave Hingerty, Dave and Karl Odlum. Following his acclaimed 2024 album, In The Time of Locusts (4 stars, The Irish Times), Antebellum is an intimate six-track EP bound with tender acoustic instrumentation and the familiar warmth of Geary's sincere vocals and reflective lyricism. Recalling, vulnerability and enduring hope, the EP reflects Geary's creative response to one of Ireland's stormiest New Year's on record. He says, “I stared out to a January of rain and cold and thought, ‘I need to get back to my desk'. If I stayed watching the news, or in a cycle of streaming shows, I'd crumble. I threw out my telly and set up a writing room by my bed. Tuned all my guitars and would jump out of bed and sing. These songs are what came of it: Fear, regret, love, romance, terror, and the weather forecast.” Navigating moments of reposeful contemplation to passages of trepidation, Geary reflects on the human condition within a more concentrated run time, where each track emerges as a resonant meditation on fear, love, regret, and hope. With six studio albums, three live albums and what will be his second ever EP release with Antebellum, writing, touring and live performance remain Geary' s lifeblood. Treating Antebellum with trademark Geary honesty, his lyrics slice right through to the core, revealing a life laid bare of human emotional frailty, failed relationships, tenderness, hurt, making amends, desire and parting. His treasured guitar collection is always close at hand, each set up in a different tuning and ready to capture any emotion.

Now training at altitude in Andorra and Font-Romeu, Jimmy is focused on chasing a sub-60 half marathon and building toward the marathon long term, with the LA Olympics as a major target. Jimmy shares his early running background, including an 8:11 3K and a top-five finish at Zatopek U23, before an Achilles injury pushed him toward cycling and rapidly into the professional ranks. He discusses the crashes, pressure, and stress that contributed to him leaving cycling in 2024, briefly considering triathlon, and then committing fully to running after a 61:37 half marathon in Valencia. Matt and Jimmy also cover high-mileage training, double-threshold work, altitude response, marathon potential, shoe development with Salomon, nutrition and carb tolerance from cycling, bicarb issues, sauna and heat protocols, anti-doping differences between cycling and running, selective cross-training, minimal strength and plyometrics, and why Jimmy is based in Barcelona.

Former pro-cyclist Jimmy Whelan reveals where he intends to run his debut marathon later this year – you'll have to listen to find out! Dialling in from his home in Barcelona, Jimmy talks about his transition from pro cycling to a brief stint as a triathlete and his newfound status as a professional runner sponsored by Salomon. He's never been happier as an athlete! And we tap into what that's all about. We talk about his breakout 61:37 half marathon in Valencia, the disappointment of Berlin half, the chatter centred on his scorching potential, and why he's not afraid to say big goals out loud, including his ambition to be in the marathon conversation for the Los Angeles Olympics in 2028. Jimmy also gives us a unique window into pro cycling on the European circuit. Aside from the joys of long group rides, living in Europe and café stops, the other headlines are: stress, contract pressure and terrifying crashes, which all ultimately pushed him away from the sport and back towards his first love of running. It's a full-circle moment for Jimmy, and what a pleasure it was to talk through his evolution and reinvention as an athlete on the pod! Enjoy! -- James “Jimmy” Whelan is an Australian athlete whose career has spanned professional cycling, triathlon and now distance running. Jimmy made a real statement last year when he ran a 61-minute half marathon in Valencia, attracting the attention of the athletics community and major sponsors alike. Now signed with Salomon, and coached by Andy Henderson, Jimmy has his sights set on the marathon distance, hoping to make his debut later this year. Jimmy's professional cycling career included affiliations with renowned teams such as Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team, Anicolor/Tien21 Cycling Team and EF Pro Cycling. Jimmy is currently based in Barcelona, Spain. -- Subscribe to Run With It wherever you get your podcasts, so you don't miss a thing! -- Check out Jimmy's YouTube: youtube.com/@jimmywhelan -- Follow us on Instagram: @jimmywhelann @runwithit.pod @elisebeacom -- Intro/outro music by Dan Beacom Graphic design by Kate Scheer

What happens when a 100-year-old luxury brand decides to think like a startup?In this episode, Jan Griffiths sits down with Joaquin Nuño-Whelan, President of Lincoln, live from Newlab at Michigan Central. This is not a conversation about cars. This is about leadership, culture, and what it really takes to transform a legacy brand from the inside out.Joaquin shares how he's doing exactly that. Building a team-first culture rooted in trust. Reframing Lincoln's identity around “quiet luxury” and Gravitas. And leading in a way that rejects the old command-and-control model in favor of authenticity, clarity, and ownership.But this conversation goes beyond the brand. Joaquin opens up about something deeper, his commitment to developing people. From empowering his teams inside Lincoln to investing his time in education and nonprofit work, he is actively shaping the next generation of talent entering the industry.That belief becomes real when you hear from Diego Vargas, a student at Detroit Cristo Rey. His voice brings a grounded, honest perspective on opportunity, growth, and what young people need from today's leaders. It's a powerful reminder that the future of this industry will be defined by the leaders we develop now.This episode hits at the core of AutoCulture 2.0: leadership, trust, and the courage to do things differently.Themes Discussed in this EpisodeWhy momentum is the most underrated leadership force inside legacy organizationsThe connection between leadership DNA and brand identityWhat “quiet luxury” really means and why it matters nowHow to lead authentically inside a command-and-control cultureThe power of trusting teams to unlock ownership and performanceWhy legacy OEMs must think like startups to stay relevantThe role of education and early talent in shaping the future workforceBridging industry leadership with student opportunity through programs like FIRST
New Combinations Host and Associate Artistic Director Wendy Whelan is joined by choreographer Christopher Wheeldon this week, whose ballet Continuum will have its NYCB premiere on May 1. It's part of a trilogy of leotard ballets, including Polyphonia and Morphoses, set to a score by György Ligeti—a composer whose music Wheeldon was "really intrigued by," but also "terrified" by. Wheeldon and Whelan discuss unlocking and understanding the mysteries of Ligeti's works, setting this piece on the company, and the positive impact fear can have on one's creative process.

Understanding your numbers is one of the most important shifts a property management business owner can make, because financial confidence changes the way you lead, grow and plan ahead. This conversation with Travis Whelan unpacks the difference between being busy and being financially solid, showing why clear reporting, clean data and a real grasp of your business performance matter so much. There is a grounded practicality to this discussion too, with a strong focus on making informed decisions rather than operating from assumption, avoidance or overwhelm.What really lands is the connection between financial structure and future opportunity. Whether you are building organically, considering acquisitions or thinking about an eventual exit, the strength of your rent roll comes back to far more than the number of properties under management. Fee structure, profitability, wage control, ancillary income and operational efficiency all play a role in how the business performs and how it is viewed by buyers and lenders. It is a timely reminder that strong businesses are built deliberately, with visibility around what is working, what is draining resources and where greater discipline is needed.There is also an important conversation here around tax, cash flow and the habits that support long-term stability. Travis speaks candidly about the risks of poor financial management and why staying on top of obligations early can protect both your business and your peace of mind. Paired with the bigger-picture discussion around readiness, strategy and sustainable growth, this episode offers a thoughtful perspective for business owners who want to create something that is not only successful on the surface, but well-run, resilient and prepared for what comes next.“If you don't have yourself sale ready from day one, it's going to make it a lot harder.” - Travis WhelanWe cover:Understanding financials in property management businesses, particularly rent rolls.Key financial concepts: profit and loss statements, cash vs. accrual accounting.Importance of clear financials when buying or selling a rent roll.Characteristics of a healthy and saleable rent roll, including management fees and vacancy rates.Preparing financials for sale: timing and necessary documentation.The impact of staffing and wage costs on profitability.Benchmarks for profitability and wage costs in property management.Considerations for buying rent rolls in different states and compliance requirements.The five C's of credit and their relevance to rent roll finance.Tax management and obligations, including dealing with the ATO.Kylie's Resources:Property Management Growth School: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/TPM-BDMSchool Digital Marketing School: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/digitalschool That Property Mum Courses: https://www.thatpropertymum.com.au/courses/ The PM Accelerate Membership: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/accelerate Book a Strategy Call with Kylie: https://calendly.com/kylie-tpm/coaching-call Kolmeo: https://kolmeo.com/ Find out about our Done for You Lead Generation - https://calendly.com/kylie-tpm/done-for-you-leads-discovery-call35 AI Prompts to help you Grow your Business on Social Media: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/35-prompts-to-grow-your-property-management-business-on-social-mediahttps://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/5-misktakes-replayDigital Marketing and AI Academyhttps://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/digitalmarketingyesConnect with Travis Whelan:https://www.linkedin.com/in/travis-whelan-418421a2/https://www.therentrollfinancebroker.com.au/0422 608 757travis@therentrollfinancebroker.com.auhttps://www.facebook.com/therentrollfinancebrokerConnect With Kylie:Follow Kylie Walker on Instagram- https://www.instagram.com/thatpropertymum_/Follow Kylie on Facebook - https://web.facebook.com/thatpropertymumConnect with Kylie on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/kylie-wal...Explore Kylie's Website - https://www.thatpropertymum.com.au/Watch Kylie on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@thatpropertymum

Strong growth in university enrolment numbers is bringing challenges for the tertiary sector. Seven of our eight universities are up on last year in some form, with Auckland recording its biggest-ever Semester One intake. Universities New Zealand Chief Executive Chris Whelan says the growth is in line with their forecasts, but it's unfortunately above where Government projections had been and where funding is. He told Mike Hosking two thirds of all jobs in the economy now require you to have at least two years of post-school education. Whelan says higher education needs funding, so that people are able to get the necessary qualifications, and the skills and knowledge that comes with them.
