When Jay says “just perfect,” in this episode, he is referring to Marilyn Horne's singing of “At the River.” This is the piece that ends the podcast. It's a little Independence Day nod. Elsewhere, Jay discusses and plays a Debussy song, two famous guitar pieces, and a piano piece by Frederic Rzewski, the American composer (also a political radical), recently deceased. A neat, varied, interesting, and enriching program. Debussy, “La mer est plus belle que les cathédrales” Villa-Lobos, Prelude No. 5 Rzewski, “Down by the Riverside” Barrios, “Julia Florida” Lowry, arr. Copland, “At the River”

On today's episode of the Forever Cash Life Real Estate Podcast, we're going to talk about something that's super useful to everyone: where to get the money.  Jay Conner and I met in a high-caliber Mastermind group not too long ago, and he's an expert on private money. I think you'll find our conversation very valuable. Why Investors Need Private Money Instead of Just Using Banks One of the great things about land flipping is that you can do some amazing deals without needing much cash upfront. But sometimes you'll have a larger land deal where the closing happens fast, and you need a big chunk of cash. This is where private money comes in. Jay and his wife live in eastern North Carolina, where Jay was raised in the mobile home business. He's been helping people get a home his whole life. In 2003, he knew he wanted to get into single family housing. From 2003 to 2009, he relied on the local banks and mortgage companies to fund his deals. He really didn't know any other way. In 2009, he had two deals under contract to purchase when he found out he had lost his lines of credit. He hung up the phone with his banker and had no idea what to do next. He called a friend who told him about private money, and he learned about it fast. He put his private money program together, educated people about it, and he was able to raise over $2 million dollars in 90 days for his real estate business. And he never looked back. When Is the Right Time to Ask for Private Money? Don't wait until 10 days before you need the private money to get it lined up. Then the other party will have the advantage, the leverage. Jay says to get several people lined up, so they'll be ready to go when you do need them. Right now, he and his wife have 45 private lenders (individuals) investing in them and lending them money for deals. They have between 7 and 8 million dollars just rotating between properties. Often, they'll refer to private money as “relationship money.” Jay makes his own rules. He sets the interest rates he's going to pay his lenders. And he's put together a powerful presentation called, “How to Raise Money for Your Real Estate Deals Without Asking for Money.”  How to Talk to Your Lenders About a Deal Jay says he learned the hard way never to teach people about his private lending program and talk about a deal he needs funded in the same conversation. You have to separate those two, or you'll sound desperate. First, teach your program. Tell people you can put their money to work for them in 30 to 60 days. Then they're sitting there just waiting for you to give them an opportunity. Let's say Steve is waiting for Jay's call. When Jay finds a deal where he can put Steve's money to work, he calls Steve and says, “Hey, Steve. Great news! I can now put your money to work for you.” He tells Steve four things about the deal. “I've got a house under contract here in Newport. It's worth x amount of money, and I need y amount of money from you. We close next Friday. Wire the money to my agent. Here are the instructions.” Jay doesn't ask Steve if he wants to do the deal. Then he's just planted a seed in Steve's mind that he shouldn't do the deal. He just states it matter of factly. It's all in the positioning and your level of confidence. And of course you're confident. Of course it's a good deal. You wouldn't be doing it if it wasn't. After the first or second deal, when you've built up your track record, people only want to know two things: how much and when do you need it?  Where Do You Find the Individuals to Loan You Private Money? Starting the conversation is one of the biggest hurdles, but the first hurdle you'll actually get to is: who do you ask? How do you find these people? There are three categories of lenders: your own contacts (the warm market)  networking contacts in the community (your expanded warm market)  existing private lenders (individuals who are already loaning money out) Make a list of people you're going to ask. Jay starts with retired folks, or people getting ready to retire. You can try a direct approach with this magic question: Do you have investment capital or retirement funds not paying you a high rate of return safely and securely? Or you can do an indirect approach, where you ask someone at work, at church, in your social organization, “Hey, do you know of some people who are sitting on a lot of money and would like to invest it in this really great opportunity with a high ROI and very little risk?”   Jay talks about deals he's done, and often that person is like, “ Wow, how can I get in on that?” And right there you've got another lender.

Australian Fitness Podcast - Episode #45I last spoke with Jay Ferruggia on Episode #20 of the podcast.Jay is a gentleman that's been working with humans at the elite levels and general population groups for many many years and has built himself an incredible reputation as a person who leaves no stone unturned in the pursuit of optimizing his client's physical performance, health, and wellness.When Jay speaks his dedication to this and his extensive body of knowledge is self-evident.We talked a little bit about how he's managed his current situation and challenges to business, about his approaches, and about his philosophies on helping people achieve their best physical outcomes.Jay is a guy who has a very clear and distinct idea of where he can add value, and in my opinion, is a true professional and someone who seeks perfection in the pursuit of a result.  His resume of work and the people he has worked with and learned from is an incredible list of the who’s who of physical improvement. No doubt Jay is now a leader and mentor for many other instructors and coaches coming through.He's a guy well worth listening to and well worth working with.If you wish to connect with Jay here are his social media contacts:@jayferruggiawww.jasonferruggia.comEnjoy the show

On this episode of the Realtor Fight Club podcast, hosts Jenn Murtland and Monica Weakley have a short tiff about who is better at sales, introverts or extroverts. Then, Jenn interviews the great Jay Kinder about what has brought him success.Episode Highlights: Monica considers herself an introverted extrovert, one that needs to get away from others to recharge.Everyone has their own form of recharging depending on their home situation.Jenn believes that for the most part, extroverts have an easier time in the sales game.Alan, Jenn’s partner, is an introvert, but he is a monster at being a real estate agent.Monica thinks that it doesn’t matter whether you are an introvert or an extrovert.Extroverts aren’t necessarily better at sales, they are just more natural when it comes to finding sales.The sales game is dependent on an agent’s ability to meet people and build relationships.Introverts need to find a way to build the relationships they need to hit their quotas.Sometimes, an extrovert’s need for someone to like them can get in the way when people tell them no.There can be no attracting business without repelling as well; not everyone will love you.You have to be willing to turn some people off because, at the end of the day, sales is a numbers game.Extroverts are going to have different problems than introverts, a reality that Jenn concedes to.This week’s tiebreaker, Jay Kinder, is an agent trainer with eXp, having coached thousands of different agents.Great enthusiasm led Jay to a lot of the success that he achieved early in his career.The best salesperson that Jay knows is his partner Michael, a natural introvert.Jay believes that his partner is an anomaly and that extroverts make the better salespeople.Introverts can be great at sales if they are willing to adapt to the situation at hand.When Jay has failed, he has found that he was coming on too hot and was too enthusiastic.As Jay became more skilled and experienced in sales, he naturally became more enthusiastic.Both Jenn and Jay have noticed that their introverted partners give well thought out answers as compared to their knee-jerk reactions.Though he was the #2 agent in the world for Coldwell Banker in his best year, Jay was still #2 in his own market.As his career has progressed, Jay’s goals have progressed from being production-oriented to time-oriented.It’s important to surround yourself with people that will show you how to reach your freedom goals.eXp has created a business model that has never existed in the real estate industry before.People’s natural tendency is to listen long enough to hear why something won’t work for them.For agents that are stuck in that 30-40 sales a year zone, the problem lies in their marketing.Get clear on what is important to your life and build a business that serves that vision.3 Key Points:Both Monica and Jenn agree that extroverts have an easier time with the sales process because building relationships comes more naturally, but Monica doesn’t think that necessarily makes them better.However you find your leads, whether it’s open houses, coffee, social media content, get out there and do it. Consistency is vital.Extroverts are going to have problems with verbally vomiting all over people while introverts will have trouble bringing in the business.Resources Mentioned:Jenn Murtland (website, LinkedIn, Facebook)Call Jenn at (513) 400-1691 to discuss transitioning to eXp RealtyMonica Weakley (website, LinkedIn, Facebook)Realtor Fight Club Podcast Facebook pageJay Kinder Website | Free Clarity Report | jay@jaykinder.com | FacebookSimple Numbers, Straight Talk, Big Profits!Change Your Questions, Change Your Life

Note: This interview was recorded at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020. On this encore episode of the Growing with Purpose podcast, host Paul Spiegelman talks with Jay Wilkinson, founder and CEO of Firespring, an inside-out marketing agency and Nebraska's first B Corp. Firespring is also a 2020 Forbes Small Giant. With a team of more than 200 employees, Jay spends most of his time working on the culture at Firespring and helping leaders in other companies become purpose-driven. But in the early 2000s, Jay experienced a pivotal moment in his life and career when he was fired as CEO of his own company. In the wake of the September 11th attacks and the economic decline that followed, his board of directors wanted him to fire more than half of their staff. When Jay refused, they fired him from the very company that he built. In this encore episode, hear how Jay recovered from that experience and managed to buy out the venture capitalists on his board and rebuild the company. Plus, hear Paul and Jay discuss how to care for introverts on your team, starting from the very first interview.

Looping your wife in on a new property is one surefire way to avoid buying a dumpster fire. Jay Adkins learned that when he bought a sob story and a rural home from a down-on-her-luck seller for $6500. Investing in small towns can be a solid way to build a portfolio, but there are some pitfalls you’ll want to avoid.When Jay and Annie bought the house, it wasn’t entirely sight unseen. They did have pictures, but they didn’t realize just how old those pictures were. The moment Jay saw the house for the first time, he knew that paying for a $350 inspection would’ve saved him the headache that this house became.Not only was the heat turned off, but it was winter and the pipes had all burst, including the hot water heater. And getting a construction crew out to the property, which was 2 ½ hours away from their home, was more difficult than Jay and Annie anticipated. Sending crews out to the town meant an overnight stay so that they could get in a full day’s work.Included in this saga (which you don’t want to miss):—Three separate tenant buyers—Depressed manufacturing Ohio town—Plus a muskrat in search of nutri-grain bars—And a murder in the back alleyJay and Annie love putting tenant buyers in their homes, and they see it as their mission to help low income homeowners get into a house. They talk about the requirements they put in place to protect their investment and give their tenants a running shot at cleaning up their credit and applying for a home loan. They fix and flip, wholesale, and offer lease options, all with heart and humor.What's Inside:—How Jay and Annie structure land contracts with a property.—Are you a little nervous about investing in small towns? You shouldn’t be.—How they help low income homeowners get into a house.—The difficulties of getting handymen or Realtors to work in a small town.

This is a special, re-edited edition of a talk called "Haunting" that Jay gave back at Bryant-Lake Bowl, on May 12th, 2019.When Jay originally gave this talk, Caleb and Robert's nagging insistence that Afterglow should not be a separate podcast--but a segment of the main Revolution podcast, had not yet convinced Jay, so in this version, the talk and the afterglow are at last connected.Also, in response to the number of recent requests for the inclusion of some sort of original music from an artistic congregation member, we decided to try to get the ball rolling with a simple little baby step, by including some of Caleb's original acoustic music in this edit.Hope you enjoy. Open to any feedback, suggestions, or constructive criticism, as we try to incorporate more of the congregation’s original expressive art into our services. Much love!!@revolutionchurchmn@jaybakker@revolutioncalebwww.dirtdoctrine.bandcamp.comwww.revolutionchurch.com See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Our guest today is Jay Siegel, co-host of Sustainability Defined, a podcast that takes on the rather intimidating goal of defining sustainability, one topic and one bad joke at a time. Each episode of Sustainability Defined explores an area of sustainability in great depth and then finishes up with an interview with an expert in that space.

When Jay isn’t podcasting he works as an urban infill real estate developer so he has first hand experience with a lot of the complicated sustainability issues around buildings and cities.Here are just a few of the topics that we discussed with Jay.How to build a sustainability career when it’s not yet part of your day jobUrban infill: can we reduce sprawl while minimizing the negative impacts of gentrification?The carbon footprint of buildings and citiesKanye’s Presidential bidWe’ll include a clip from Sustainability Defined at the end of this episode, so stick around.LinksSustainability DefinedEpisode webpageIf you would like to support the show please click here.Music by:Avery ReidyKeaton ButlerTheme music is by JuicesSound design by Keaton ButlerPlease share the show with a friend.Support the show (http://patreon.com/howtostopclimatechange)

Mobile Home Investments are more popular than ever before. Many believe that it's because housing markets have sky rocketed and there is also tightening of the lending rules. Today I have the pleasure of introducing Jay and Samera Harvey who left their 9 to 5 jobs and jumped full time in to Real Estate Investing. Jay was in the Air force and Samera is a CPA by profession. When Jay finished his degree in Finance they both started looking to start their own business. But after trying many businesses they never really got success as they were looking for. After reading a Rich Dad Poor Dad book they knew straight away that Real Estate was the business they wanted to get into. After taking training from their mentor, they decided to invest in Mobile Homes. Up until now they have closed over 400 deals with initial investments around $10,000. Their investments are spread all over the USA and now they are teaching others their strategies through "Trailer Cash Academy." Find out on YouTube why more and more real estate investors are wanting to know the secret behind flipping mobile homes in parks! You can also find their contact information in the description section below the video. To listen to the interview, Click here.

Jay Ruane is a nationally recognized expert in digital and social media marketing for lawyers. In addition, he is an Amazon best selling author in the Law Practice Management category. When Jay was a kid, his father was a local criminal defense lawyer. Jay watched him go to work every day defending the rights of people just like you and me. He took enormous pride in his job, and he taught Jay the importance of protecting the rights of every man and woman. Jay’s father firmly believed that it is the job of the criminal defense attorney to check the power of the court and make sure that the laws are followed during the prosecution process. This is a belief that Jay saw in action every day and one that he came to adopt as his own. This way of viewing the world led him to his career as a lawyer. In 2001, Jay went into private practice with his father. They started Ruane Attorneys, a modest criminal defense firm in Bridgeport focusing mostly on DUI defense. Fourteen years later, the firm has two additional locations, another senior partner, 8 associate attorneys, and a dedicated administrative team of 8. Since opening Ruane Attorneys, Jay has spoken at several conferences, has been involved in local and national law associations, and has spent a minimum of 40 hours each year furthering his defense knowledge. He also authored and co-authored several books, including The Connecticut DUI Trial Handbook, Lady DUI’s Connecticut DUI Survival Guide, and The Connecticut DUI Survival Guide. What you’ll learn about in this episode: Jay shares his career journey and explains how he initially began marketing his practice digitally out of necessity How Jay founded a social media marketing training company for other lawyers to help them better engage with followers Why Jay believes the key to building a successful law practice is to focus on the areas where you find passion and purpose, and why profits aren’t enough How Jay created a systems-based process within his firm, and why systems have been the key to his firm’s growth Why Jay wishes he had spent more time building his personal network early in his career, and why personal referrals are a powerful resource for growth Why Jay believes that social media is one of the most powerful relationship-cultivating tools we have at our disposal in the modern world Why nontraditional, digital marketing offers significant potential over more traditional marketing methods How Jay’s books have become instrumental marketing tools statewide and have generated at least one new referral a month by themselves How to get a free 15-day trial of Jay’s FirmFlex social media coaching just for being a Grow Your Law Firm podcast listener Resources: FirmFlex free trial: www.getfirmflex.com/pilmma Website: www.ruaneattorneys.com LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/jayruane/ Additional Resources: PILMMA Join Page: www.pilmma.org/marketing-lawyers-law-firm-management/

When Jay and Silent Bob learn of a new Bluntman and Chronic movie being made - Bluntman V Chronic, and the fact that they have lost their naming rights to self-identify as "Jay and Silent Bob", the duo head to "Chronic-Con" in Hollywood where a final major scene is to be shot, to sabotage the film.

When Jay arrives home, he finds his neighborhood gentrified beyond recognition. Demetrius, his childhood best friend, is missing, but none of the remaining black folks trust Jay enough to provide any answers. Jay's frustration compounds as he also finds himself alienated in the city at large, attacked from all sides. Jay visits his last friend Dion in prison, but leaves feeling powerless and infuriated. One final, chance confrontation results in Jay succumbing to the same forces as did his friends.

When Jay, illy and Ghost (then known as Rokmore, in a special guest spot) linked up in an early episode of Deathcakes to talk Wu-Tang, they had no idea at the time that the Keepers of the Funk podcast and the advent of No Jibba-Jabba FM were on the horizon.  They certainly didn't predict Wu-Tang: An American Saga to hit Hulu!  Now that all three scenarios have come to pass, the three hosts join up yet again in search of some Shaolin graffiti and to weigh in on the docu-drama (spoiler alert: they LOVE it!)

How much knowledge do you have in your brain? You know the ins and outs of your market. You know the exact questions that your leads are asking. Have you ever thought about writing down all of that information, and publishing a book? Creating a book is a great freebie item that you can send to any potential leads. This helps establish your authority (especially if you are serving a niche market that can take longer to convert to a sale). But it sounds intimidating ...publishing a book? Isn’t that a lot of work? Jay Otlewski, from Phoenix, Arizona, is here to share how he wrote a book that serves his niche perfectly, and acts as a lead magnet to bring in new business. Not only has Jay capitalized on his knowledge acquired over years of serving as a real estate agent, but he’s figured out how to turn that book into a lead-generating machine. Best of all - Jay didn’t study writing. In fact, he’s a math guy. But when he sat down with a cup of coffee and a notepad, and made a list of all the questions he could answer, it wasn’t long until he had finished writing the definitive 100 page guide to buying a home in an active adult community in the Phoenix area. If Jay can do it, you can too! Make sure you listen to this episode of the Selling the Dream podcast to get inspired on how you can use an eBook to attract even more qualified leads to your business.

When Jay moved to Phoenix, he decided to niche down and learn everything he could about “active adult communities.” He wasn’t even old enough to join one, but he focused on learning everything about them. Reminder: you don’t have to live a niche to serve it effectively. You can serve second home buyers and not own a second home. You can serve luxury real estate and not own a luxury home. It’s all about being educated. In the beginning, Jay was going to sell to EVERYONE - but then he niched down deep. When you know what motivates buyers and sellers, your job becomes easier. To serve his niche, Jay wrote and published a book! To write the book, Jay thought of all the questions he’d ever been asked, and just started writing down the answers. The result was a 100 page book! “Writing it was a lot easier than I thought; it was a matter of knowing the answers to questions and then writing them out.” Need an idea for a book? What are the questions that you answer over and over again? Jay uses the book as a lead magnet. The cost per copy (including shipping) is about $7. Not bad when it can convert to a potential sale! A book offers knowledge and expertise. Don’t be afraid to niche. Doctors have specialties, and know the ins and outs of one particular area. You aren’t trapped in your niche: it doesn’t mean you can’t serve anyone else. It just helps you determine which business you are going to focus on and pursue. Make sure that your book serves your niche. Jay’s book serves those looking to purchase in active adult communities. It does not cover first time homebuyers. If you’re a new agent, Jay has some advice. Pick a niche that you love, and dig deep into it. Get to know everything about it, and how you can best serve that niche. Get a coach or mentor to help you as you’re digging into your business.

Presenter Isy Suttie talks to the fantastic Jay Hulme about coming out as transgender, advising NHS staff about transgenderism, and how performing his poetry in Parliament made MPs cry. When Jay was growing up he always knew he didn’t feel quite right in his body but it wasn’t until his teenage years that he realised he was a trans male. He found poetry was his medium for expressing his experiences as a transgender man and at 17 won the highly coveted teen poetry competition ‘Slambassadors’. Since then he’s continued to advocate for LGBTQ+ rights and is working to make being a trans teen better for the next generation. This is how Jay changed his world… #ChangeYourWorld

Session 106 Pediatric rheumatology is for doctors who are good at teamwork, problem-solving and becoming experts in nebulous problems. Dr. Jay Mehta joins me to explain. Jay is actually the fellowship director at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) for pediatric rheumatology and out of training now for 10 years. Jay actually didn't know about this specialty until he rotated during residency. This is exactly the goal of this podcast is to expose you to specialties out there that you may or may not know about. So listen every week and take some notes. Figure out what you want to be Meanwhile, check out all our resources on Meded Media as you go along this journey towards becoming a physician. Listen to this podcast episode with the player above, or keep reading for the highlights and takeaway points. [02:04] Interest in Pediatric Rheumatology Jay remembers liking every rotation he was on but he just kept coming back to pediatrics. He loves the people he gets to work with both patients and the other residents and faculty. He went through a small medical school and they didn't have real exposure to pediatric rheumatology. The only exposure he had was at an adult room when he took an elective in medical school. He initially thought it was interesting but didn't have any sense that kids actually got rheumatic diseases. When Jay started his residency, he wanted to do pediatric hematology-oncology because he loved the elective for this subspecialty that he also did back in medical school. Particularly, he loved the diagnostic aspect of it.  So he assumed he would like Pediatric Oncology because the diseases are interesting, the kids are sick, and you get to create great relationships with families. He thought it was something he would enjoy. Then after doing an oncology rotation on his second year of residency, he realized he didn't love the practice of oncology for various reasons.  A lot of the biopsies were made through biopsies or imaging. The oncologists themselves weren't making the diagnosis and the treatments were protocolized. This is great since the mortality from childhood cancers dropped incredibly since treatments have become protocolized. As an oncologist, you're not making a lot of decisions about treatments. So he decided this wasn't what he wanted to do. Meanwhile, Jay had a couple of interesting patients who were kids with autoimmune disease. He loved the problem-solving aspect of rheumatology. This was also when the biologic era was starting in the mid-2000s when biologics were coming into the scene. [Related episode: Discussing Pediatric Oncology with an Academic Doc] [08:00] Traits that Lead to Being a Good Pediatric Rheumatologist Collegiality is one of the biggest things. Just by the very nature of autoimmune diseases, all organs can be affected. So they end up working with every specialist in the hospital. You must want to think about your patients. There are a lot of things they see in a day that they're able to put a name on in terms of the specific diagnosis.  So you have to reach back to your knowledge of immunology to think about what might be going on in the disease. Then you use that to try and come up with targeted treatments. You must love to form relationships with families. Jay has been seeing patients for years and watching them grow up. So you have to be that kind of person that wants to have a long-term relationship with families. You need to work with them through a lot of things that are going on because autoimmune diseases are systemic. [10:55] Types of Patients "Rheum" is Latin for flex. A lot of these diseases can affect the joints that why a lot of people associate rheumatology with joint diseases. They get referred for a lot of things for kids with musculoskeletal pain or joint pains. But rheumatology deals with the systemic autoimmune diseases, where the immune system goes haywire and starts attacking the body.  Rheumatologists get to be the experts in a nebulous field. Most patients that come to them don't have a defined diagnosis. Also, several patients that come to see them are also getting referred to infectious diseases and oncology at the same time. Because these diseases are rare and primary care physicians can miss them, a lot of patients can come to them with benign joint pain but with concern for arthritis. They would then differentiate mechanical joint pain (benign and short-term) from actual inflammatory joint pain which needs to be treated with immunodepressants. [14:55] Typical Day Jay wears different hats. He is involved with the fellowship and residency programs as well as education research. He has an interest in how people make career decisions, specifically how fellows navigate through career transitions through fellowship into attending life. He does clinic a couple of days of the week and sees about a couple of new patients and 4-6 follow-up patients. The latter patients have been referred to him for things like childhood chronic arthritis. Or he might see patients that are stable on their biologic therapies. A few weeks in a year, he does inpatient or consult service where he sees patients with established autoimmune disease. Most of the time, these patients have fevers or some multi-system diseases that are being evaluated for biologic causes. He likes how he's able to work with trainees all day long. They have a pediatric fellowship program so he works with the fellow or students most of the time. [17:35] Doing Procedures, Taking Calls, and Work-Life Balance Jay describes procedures in pediatric rheumatology as not being too heavy. But they do joint injections. Ultrasound has been emerging in their field as well either for the purpose of diagnosis or milder response to therapy. In terms of taking calls, a lot of what they do is taking home calls and working with folks inside the hospital. So it's all home call then they just see the patients in the morning. All this being said, Jay thinks he has great work-family life balance. His wife is in finance and her schedule is crazy with frequent travels. The good thing about rheumatology is that it's primarily an outpatient field. So when in clinic, he gets done by 530-6pm and goes home and spends time with his kids. When he's on call for the weekend, he could go in for a couple of hours and spend the rest of the day at home with his family. Conversely, the one downside he sees is the burden of the EMR. After his kids go to bed, he would have to spend time on the EMR charting. [20:47] The Training Path Pediatrics is three years and fellowship is another three years. Presently, there's a debate on whether the three-year fellowship is necessary. But for now, it's kept at three. The American Board of Pediatrics requires people to do some scholarly product for your second and third year.  This can be in the form of an education research project, a basic science project, or a clinical research project. QI (quality improvement) is being increasingly accepted as a scholarly project as well. Pediatric rheumatology is not a very competitive field. There are about 30-40 fellowship slots a year and about 20 of them get filled. So about 50%-60% of slots get filled every year. There are lots of different reasons why it's less competitive. One reason is the lack of awareness. There's not a lot of exposure to it. Also, because it's not a procedure-heavy field and visits take a long time, they don't generate revenue in terms of procedure or volume as much as other fields can. The compensation is not at par with general pediatrics. You will still be comfortable, just that it's not as much as the procedure-heavy fields. They have a pretty huge program at CHOP. In order to be competitive at these big programs, there are a couple of things that they look for. There must be evidence of collegiality. What have you done to show you can work well within a team? One must be able to show a level of intellectual curiosity. You have to improve your knowledge every time. Lastly, you must have curiosity in the field. What have you done to show you have an interest in the field? Have you spent enough time with a rheumatologist? Be able to show that drive to get things done and know about the field. [27:00] Advice to Osteopathic Students The American College of Rheumatology estimates that they need about half of the pediatric rheumatologists in the country to fill the demand. In this regard, they were thinking about reaching out to DO schools. The practice of osteopathic medicine is very hands-on and embedded with the musculoskeletal system. And in rheumatology, they do a full joint exam on every patient that comes in. They have noticed that fellows who have been trained in osteopathic schools have amazing physical exam skills. So they want to reach out better to osteopathic schools to sell them on the joy of pediatric rheumatology. [Related episode: Let's Talk About Osteopathic Docs and What You Need to Know] [28:35] Opportunities for Subspecialty There are not any official fellowships beyond your three years unless you want to do postdoctoral training in the lab. But the field is changing now. With more and more diseases now being characterized, there's an increasing area of interest in immune dysregulation syndromes.  Because of this, there are places dedicated to lupus clinics. You can spend time in those clinics getting more expertise in lupus. There are some opportunities more than an official capacity. [30:20] Working with Primary Care and Other Specialties They see a lot of kids who would have joint swelling and get sent to orthopedists who would cast the kid. They take the cast off. The kid's joint is still swollen. Then they'd come to them. But by that time, the kid could already develop some joint damage. This is happening a lot less now. Primary care providers and orthopedists are now doing a great job at recognizing that kids get arthritis. That being said, primary care providers must understand that arthritis can happen to kids Know the questions to ask to be able to differentiate arthritis pain from mechanical symptoms. Time of the day is a big predictor of inflammatory vs mechanical pain. Inflammatory pain tends to happen in the morning. There is a screening test for arthritis in kids and most of them don't have abnormal labs. Don't rely on negative labs to make the diagnose for arthritis. In the evaluation process, when the kids are developing their systems, they have this immune dysregulation team that consists of rheumatologist, oncologist, immunologist, and infectious disease. The team will often get consulted when a patient comes in with an unknown disease. And they all work closely together to develop an evaluation and management plan. [33:50] Special Opportunities Outside of Clinical Medicine The biologic era was starting when Jay came into rheumatology. Back then, there were only three drugs for the treatment of autoimmune disease. Now, there are about 20-25 different biologic drugs that he might prescribe in any given month.  The pathways are getting more and more specific so there are lots of opportunity within the industry. There are lots of opportunities for teaching within residencies and medical schools. As diagnosticians, they're often asked to help teach the physical exams to medical students and residents. [35:30] The Most and Least Liked Things What he likes the most about his specialty is a tie between his colleagues and their patients. They have a large relatively large group with 9 attendings and 6 fellows. He describes his colleagues as really nice, smart, hardworking, and love to take care of patients. He is constantly learning from them. Additionally, he gets to see kids from close to birth until they graduate from college. He loves seeing each stage of their childhood. Plus, the families are very appreciative and great people. Conversely, what he likes the least about the field is the EMR burn. Their evaluations are so complex. They're doing full exams and complicated assessments, balancing large amounts of data. It's fun initially, but only until you put that into the computer as it takes a really long time. Currently, they might explore the assistance of scribes in the future. [39:55] Major Changes in the Field of Pediatric Rheumatology More and more ultrasound is being utilized so more and more people are getting trained. The drug development pipeline is going to be amazing in the next few years. He has also heard rumors of a move towards compensating cognitive fields with cognitive diagnosis codes. If he had to do it all over again, he would still have chosen the same. He loves to tell people about how much he loves what he does. [42:05] Final Words of Wisdom If you love to be around nice people and think about interesting diseases and make great relationships with patients, Jay says this is a fantastic field. And it's going to continue to get better. Seek out opportunities. If you have one at your institution, spend an afternoon shadowing them and spending time at their clinic. The American College of Rheumatology has great opportunities to get paid for and travel to annual meetings. Links: Meded Media American College of Rheumatology

In this episode of the Business Mentor Podcast, we hear Jay answers questions during the Q&A session during a talk about ‘Property as a Business & Multiple Streams of Income’ which was held last February 26 in Long Eaton Hub. He met with fellow property investors, and he was an absolute inspiration and a mentor to all of them. Jay also talked about his businesses – how did he start and grow them, what efforts he has to put in them, and what obstacles he has to face every single day. If you want to increase your streams of income, make sure to take down notes of what Jay has to say about it. KEY TAKEAWAY When to start your brand and create your content? The ‘brand’ can just be doing one or two post on your Facebook. When Jay began the Business Mentor Podcast slowly. It wasn’t getting enough engagements, but this didn’t let him stop producing content. But now, he was able to monetise it and invest the money to the team. He sets up the systems to set up his brand with the help of his staff and technology. When something unexpected happens, what do you do with it? Acknowledge the fact that not everything you do will go as you planned. Be ready for it and condition yourself that there will be times that you’re going to do things outside your comfort zone. Sometimes you’ll have to stay in and won’t be able to go home to get a shower or see your family. There are sacrifices. What is passion? Jay’s mentor advised, “If you do something well enough and it makes you money, it makes you passionate about it.” That’s the way it goes. Passion is overrated and makes some money. What drives Jay to do the podcast? Jay answers the legacy out of it, and he’s able to help other people. He’s happy that he’s doing what he loves right now. What do you do if you want to start a business (i.e. coaching business)? Think of what you can charge. Offer them a demo service for free. High ticket – Think of what events could you offer. Start small. Should you use LinkedIn? LinkedIn is one of the hottest platforms. It’s easier to network and get some resources on the platform. BEST MOMENTS “You got to get on with it. Sometimes you got to get dirty.” “For me, I work for mentors that are above me. I look up to them and think, ‘I want to be on your level.’” “Don’t think of building your social media to build this massive platform. Just build a core group of people and built it slowly.” VALUABLE RESOURCES Recruitment Boss The Business Mentor Podcast | Omny | iTunes | Stitcher ABOUT THE HOST Jay Dhillon is a serial entrepreneur, investor and philanthropist based in the UK with a proven track record of growing businesses from start-up to success- and helping others do the same. From humble beginnings, Jay grew his first business from 0-500 employees and three locations, racking up sales of over £30 million – all without any investment other than a small amount of savings. The business went on to acquire major clients such as Landrover, Jaguar, Toyota and New Look, to name a few. Its huge success inevitably brought about outside interest and at the age of 33, Jay eventually sold the company to a London investment firm in Doyen Resources. Today, Jay owns several businesses in different sectors and helps entrepreneurs achieve success. A calling to give back and help others led to Jay being chosen for the highly-coveted role as a Prince’s Trust mentor, where his achievements were marked by a personal invitation to Buckingham Palace to meet Prince Charles. After helping several young entrepreneurs to success as a mentor for the Trust, Jay’s burning desire to bring his wisdom and knowledge to a wider audience ultimately triggered the concept of The Business Mentor Podcast. Jay feels that anyone can achieve success in business with the right advice and mentoring and is now sharing his knowledge with his growing audience via his podcast. In the UK alone 95% of business fail within the first five years and Jay’s aim is to reduce that number. Backed with the hard-earned knowledge and experience from his time in business, The Business Mentor Podcast will share Jay’s personal business lessons as well those of other successful entrepreneur guests who share their wisdom and secrets on the show.

Jay Motley, 38 years old from Greenville, South Carolina, is one of our Extramilest Facebook Group members. He has had a dream for a long time to qualify for the Boston Marathon. He trained hard and long, but always fell short of the Boston Qualifying times. He was often injured and feeling drained. This all changes recently, when he tried a different approach to training and racing. Last month he improved from a 3:11 marathon to a 2:50 marathon, a huge PR and his dream of being able to run the Boston Marathon came through. In today’s episode we discuss in detail about Jay’s learnings over the past 10 years of Marathon running, what changes he made to his training to qualify for Boston, his race strategy and actually race day execution and much more.

Welcome to another episode of The Disruptive Entrepreneur Podcast! On today's episode, Rob talks to Jay Cutler, 4X Mr. Olympia winner and the founder of Cutler Nutrition. Discover what bodybuilding and business – yes, two very different fields – have in common. For example, to be a pro bodybuilder and businessman, you have to have a strong mindset and maintain great relationships. Aside from this, Rob and Jay talk about how failure is important, how did Jay make the transition, how passion projects can be successful, how Sylvester Stallone in Rocky IV inspired him, and many more! KEY TAKEAWAYS Mind to Muscle Connection. You have to have a visual you want to achieve in your mind. See the genetic potentials. Consider the training, health and nutrition you have to keep track of. Bodybuilding needs hardcore mentality, aside from hard work and dedication. Jay has decided since he was 12 that he wanted to mould his own body to have a perfect and fit physique. At the age of 18, he started his training. He learned on his own and listened from trainers. Failure is important to grow mentally. Every time Jay enters a competition, he tells himself that he already ‘won' it despite whatever the result will be. You have to have strong mindset. Staying relevant and active in the community already feels like winning. Helping others who want to get into bodybuilding beats the times Jay goes up the stage to receive awards. Being impactful makes him feel good. Communication and relationships are important. When Jay made the transition to managing his business ventures, he felt it happened ‘automatically'. Consistency, dedication, and commitment. Jay advises young bodybuilders to prioritize those three. Stay on what you believe and stay passionate. Sometimes, we get influenced by people around us and our track gets shifted. How did Jay make the transition from professional bodybuilding to business? Aside from coming from a business-inclined family, he focused to venture on something he's passionate about. He wanna do so much more for the community. Choose what you want to do. Don't let other people tell you otherwise. It might take you long time to see results you want but it's going to be worth it. Don't be afraid to fail. No one likes it but you should be able to roll with it. BEST MOMENTS "Every time you get knocked up, get back up and fight stronger." - Jay "The most important thing you could build in your life is relationships." – Jay "You have to find a path that works for you and not be sidelined by others and be sidelined by negativity." – Jay "The most important thing is to stay true to who you are. Everyone has definitely a gift inside them." – Jay "You should chase your passion. You should do what you love - the hobby like bodybuilding. Because if you love it enough and passionate enough, you can make it work and make it pay." – Rob VALUABLE RESOURCES CEO Muscle by Jay Cutler Olympia ABOUT THE HOST Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor and property educator.

Jay Sukow believes that the world would be a better place if everyone took just one improv class – and I agree! Jay is trying to make that world a reality as the Founder of Today Improv, where he teaches improv to actors, businesses, and everyone else all over the world.   Jay is also on faculty at M.i.’s Westside Comedy Theater and The Second City Hollywood, and co-host of the ImprovCast with Jay and Landon.   In the 80’s and 90’s, there wasn’t a lot of understanding about what improv was. However, after years of people like Jay working with the public and businesses, people are starting to accept and understand why improv is so beneficial in both business and life.   “Be the improviser that you want to play with; be the person in your business who you want to work with.”   When Jay and his ensemble go to work with a business, they don’t claim to be business experts – but they are experts in communication, working together, being part of an ensemble, focusing on the team first, and using information.   His goal is to get others to implement those skills within their business, or their lives, and make it a habit. And one of the most valuable skills and habits that you might learn in one of these Improv classes is Yes, And.   Because in your professional world and your personal world, you will have to say Yes, and you will have to say yes to things that you don’t want to do or else you will lose something – so learning how to say yes, in a constructive manner, is a very valuable skill.   Often times, we are struggling because we aren’t accepting something or making excuses. When we use Yes, And, we aren’t trying to find a quick way out of a problem or an acceptable way to make an excuse. We are saying before I shoot this idea down, how could it work?   “You have to accept failure. Your failure is going to help us succeed in the long run, but we’re so focused on immediate results that we don’t allow ourselves that space.”   Resources: Learn more about Today Improv Listen: ImprovCast with Jay and Landon --   Production & Development for Improv Is No Joke by Podcast Masters Learn more about your ad choices.

English Premier League and World Cup Soccer player Jay DeMerit has one of the most unique stories to success the sport of soccer has ever seen. An MLS reject that backpacked to Europe and climbed the English soccer pyramid from the 12th tier to become the captain of Watford FC in the English Premier League. He also represented the US Mens National Team for five years, playing every minute of his teams games in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. In 2011 he became the first ever signing & captain for the Vancouver Whitecaps in MLS. He finished his career in 2014, after captaining the Vancouver Whitecaps for four seasons. Using his vast experience in professional soccer, Jay will share the highs and the lows he's endured along his journey through his 10-year professional career. Highlights are the season of 2006-07, where Jay and his underdog Watford FC team were promoted to the English Premier League, the biggest soccer league in the world, as well as his experiences in playing a major role in the World Cup in 2010. Defining leadership traits, dealing with adversities, identifying commonality between diverse personalities, creating culture, and role management are just a few things Jay will touch on, as well as how he learned to lead from others through mentorship, and then grow into captain himself. Jay has taken the stage at Tedx Vancouver, spoken at a wide variety of national conferences, and has even been the keynote speaker on “Grit” at the US Soccer Federation’s annual symposium. His story was the subject of “Rise & Shine: The Jay DeMerit Story” a documentary released in 2011 after a successful kickstarter campaign, where the passionate soccer community raised $223,000 to turn this important story into a feature film. Changing the Game is also excited to announce that Jay is our newest member of our stellar lineup of world class speakers.

Jay Lee is from Washington, DC who relocated to the Tampa bay area during the time of homelessness in 2014.  A former football coach and elected official for three terms as Advisory Neighborhood Commissioner where he has served as chairman, Jay has been very active in his community, providing his constituents entrepreneur training and personal development mentoring.  Jay has become a published author in 2013 with his first book "Change Your Mind, Change Your Life" which now has a 4.5 star rating with Amazon and a 5 star rating with Barnes & Noble. Mr. Lee, now CEO of the Jay Lee Speaks Organization and WAN Global, LLC, speaks to non-profit organizations, small, medium and large businesses and schools in addition to one on one mentoring on stress management, paradigm shift, law of attraction, goal setting, being a neurological thinker, professional and personal development and the 3Ds to an extraordinary lifestyle.  Jay has changed the lives of many individuals through his powerful messages in person, conference calls, and social media and through his book.  Jay has several influences in his life but his biggest hero is his mother who passed away in 2012 one day before being laid off from his last job.  Jay's mother was an entrepreneur as a house cleaner.  At the age of 70, she refused to slow down even while suffering from multiple heart attacks.  She believed that prosperity is much greater than pain and suffering.  When Jay thinks of the warrior his mother was during her lifetime, he refuses to give up when he faces adversity, instead, he overcomes adversity. 

This week's episode is one Jay and I have been talking about doing for awhile...using Lean Inside as a guide to dive into a topic. When Jay was writing Lean Inside he hoped it would become a manual of sorts. A book readers could pick up anywhere, anytime and simply turn to a page to get focused. So that is what we did! Jay turned to a page and pointed at a section to set up our topic for the episode and it was a doozy! One that I personally needed to hear and I bet you do as well. How do you change your Operating System? Why do we get triggered by certain events, people or even words? How do you get yourself to a place where you truly change that automatic reaction that comes from your Operating System? With the holidays approaching, I know that I am prepping for triggers. But what if I could just know I was going to be OK?  Sound familiar? Join us and learn how we can all get laser focused around changing our Operating System so we no longer have to face hijack or slip into old patterns of behavior. We hope you enjoy this episode! Let us know your thoughts. Are you willing to come on and be coached around an area of your life? Do you have someone you would like us to interview? Shoot us a message via our website leave a comment on the Facebook post currently circulating in our private Facebook group, Doing the Work with Jay and Becca. We would love to keep our episodes focused on what our listeners want to hear. Everything you need already exists inside you...Lean Inside with us to find out!

“Diary of a Bad Year: A War Correspondent’s Dilemma” on PRX About Diary of a Bad Year: A War Correspondent’s Dilemma This project was born in the place where so many good ideas come to life — Woods Hole. I was visiting Jay and the Transom Story Workshop to talk about making radio. Like good reporters, Jay and Melissa Allison, Viki Merrick, Samantha Broun, Sydney Lewis, and Rob Rosenthal asked me a lot of tough questions. As I answered, I realized the tables had been turned on me, that by confronting me with the curiosity I usually apply to the people I interview, they were getting me to say and realize things I didn’t even know were true. I had deep concerns about my job, but I never would have examined them this fully had it not been for the welcoming, open, supportive, loving hearts in Woods Hole — and, later, for conversations I had with my dear friend, the great radio producer, Sean Cole. At one point I remember writing an email to Jay that said something like, “If I really go through with this project, I will end up quitting my job.” We’ll see about that. What I do know is that making this story has totally altered the way I look at what I and most of my friends do for a living. It has made me more aware and ultimately more safe in the field. It was hard, it was personal, but I think it was worth it. What I learned One of the biggest lessons for me was that it’s all about perspective. It’s one thing to talk about this stuff casually with friends (and with yourself), but it’s another thing to really dig deep and try to prosecute the ideas, especially when it’s your own life that’s on the stand. Doing this kind of work is hard, and it takes time. When Jay and I started this back in 2011, he suggested I record diaries as I went along. No expectations — just record what comes to mind as it’s happening. It sounds easy, but for me it was hard. Just that simple act of stepping back, removing myself from the moment, was a struggle. Some of the diaries were unusable, mainly because I wasn’t able to step back far enough, or because they were just too sad. Here’s diary I recorded at like 3:00 a.m., in Yemen, the week that Anthony Shadid (the award-winning journalist for the The New York Times) died. I had just heard that another member of the tribe, Marie Colvin (the award-winning journalist for the British paper The Sunday Times), died. Listening back to this clip, it’s clear I didn’t have much perspective. I talk about how I’m NOT a war correspondent like Marie and others, and yet only a few months later, I was basically embedded with Syrian rebels. Months after that I was at the front line. Also, I talk about how Marie’s stories had some bearing on the international community’s policy in Syria, clearly because that’s what I wanted to believe. It’s only now that I can painfully admit her stories had little impact. The killing in Homs, the place where she was reporting when she died, continued after her death. More than one year later, it continues today. Still, keeping a diary was really, really cool. So cool that I still do it, as a matter of course. One great help is that I can do it on my iPhone. I just tap Hindenburg and start talking. That way if I’m in public, I don’t look like a crazy cat lady — I look like I’m talking on the phone. At the risk of repeating myself, I have to say that I think the key here was knowing that someone would be *listening* to these diaries, that someone actually cared to know what I had to say.

“Diary of a Bad Year: A War Correspondent’s Dilemma” on PRX About Diary of a Bad Year: A War Correspondent’s Dilemma This project was born in the place where so many good ideas come to life — Woods Hole. I was visiting Jay and the Transom Story Workshop to talk about making radio. Like good reporters, Jay and Melissa Allison, Viki Merrick, Samantha Broun, Sydney Lewis, and Rob Rosenthal asked me a lot of tough questions. As I answered, I realized the tables had been turned on me, that by confronting me with the curiosity I usually apply to the people I interview, they were getting me to say and realize things I didn’t even know were true. I had deep concerns about my job, but I never would have examined them this fully had it not been for the welcoming, open, supportive, loving hearts in Woods Hole — and, later, for conversations I had with my dear friend, the great radio producer, Sean Cole. At one point I remember writing an email to Jay that said something like, “If I really go through with this project, I will end up quitting my job.” We’ll see about that. What I do know is that making this story has totally altered the way I look at what I and most of my friends do for a living. It has made me more aware and ultimately more safe in the field. It was hard, it was personal, but I think it was worth it. What I learned One of the biggest lessons for me was that it’s all about perspective. It’s one thing to talk about this stuff casually with friends (and with yourself), but it’s another thing to really dig deep and try to prosecute the ideas, especially when it’s your own life that’s on the stand. Doing this kind of work is hard, and it takes time. When Jay and I started this back in 2011, he suggested I record diaries as I went along. No expectations — just record what comes to mind as it’s happening. It sounds easy, but for me it was hard. Just that simple act of stepping back, removing myself from the moment, was a struggle. Some of the diaries were unusable, mainly because I wasn’t able to step back far enough, or because they were just too sad. Here’s diary I recorded at like 3:00 a.m., in Yemen, the week that Anthony Shadid (the award-winning journalist for the The New York Times) died. I had just heard that another member of the tribe, Marie Colvin (the award-winning journalist for the British paper The Sunday Times), died.

When Jay was small, his uncle Pete worked downstairs on illustrations and book covers. When he was 16 he found a book at the local library about advertising typography by accident. Silk screen experiments. Teaching gigs in the mid 80’s. Printing shops. Keyboard short cuts in InDesign.
