Why have prices of building materials soared while consumer prices are relatively stable? This is easier to understand once we reject the myth of monetary neutrality and see how price inflation enters the market in different ways.

Zechariah tells of the discipline and the ultimate destruction of Israel. Why- They followed the way of their fathers. They rejected God's Word, His redemption, His leading, His prophets, and His Messiah. The pattern of rebellion-discipline-promise-restoration is seen again and again in Israel's history... and in our lives.

Are you ready for the third part of my series on the talking boundary? This one is all about a specific process from the work of Pia Mellody: the Talking Format. This strategy is a roadmap around how to share information with another person, and is ideal for challenging conversations. If you’ve ever found yourself struggling with how to express yourself effectively in a difficult interpersonal situation, don’t miss this episode!   Biggest Takeaways From Episode #134: The Talking Format consists of three parts: Tell the other person about the data you observed to give a concrete example of the issue you’re raising. Explain what you thought, perceived, or made up based on the data. Share the emotions that you feel around the situation. When you’re using the Talking Format, make sure you have enough physical space to say what you want to say. Pay attention to what your body is telling you. The purpose of sharing is to be known and foster intimacy, not to blame, shame, control, criticize, or manipulate. If you become aware that your intention is to control or manipulate, you’re not yet ready to have the conversation.   Highlights from Episode #134: Welcome to the third and final part of Vicki’s series on the talking boundary! Check out the last two episodes if you haven’t yet heard part one one and part two of the series. [00:39] What is the Talking Format? Vicki shares the three basic steps. [03:45] Vicki offers an example to help illustrate how to use the technique she’s sharing today. [08:34] We learn more about how to use the Talking Format as part of the talking boundary. [12:22] When you’re sharing, remind yourself that you’re not blaming the other person. [15:39] You can approach a solution by expressing how you would prefer things to be. Vicki talks about how this might work in her example. [20:57] Vicki shares one last point about the Talking Format: it’s an actionable way to use the first step of the 5-Step Boundary Solution.

Dr. Mario Luis Small grew up in Panama City, the son of an architect in a tight knit community of other families. He learned first-hand the way that spaces and social connections shape well-being and community. In this episode of Shared Space, I talk with Mario, Grafstein Family Professor in the Department of Sociology at Harvard University, about how his early experiences shaped his future work and his discovery around the importance of social capital, trust and social ties in strengthening communities across the globe, and specifically the nature of architecture and urban design to shape connection. Dr. Small has published award-winning articles, edited volumes, and books on topics such as social relationships, urban poverty, and the relationship between qualitative and quantitative methods. He has amazing books, from Villa Victoria to Unanticipated Gains, to his latest book, Someone To Talk To: How Networks Matter in Practice. In this episode, we discuss...

In case you haven’t already heard, I’m holding monthly boundaries clarifier workshops. At these events, we walk through the first four steps of the 5-Step Boundary Solution Clarifier. Today’s episode was inspired by something that came up in the very first of these workshops: Step 3 (Identifying Your Power Center) is challenging for a lot of people. That’s why today’s episode is all about this step of the process, and how to decide between your four options. Biggest Takeaways From Episode #125: Identifying your power center is incredibly important. Getting it wrong can lead you to think that you don’t have the power to create your desired outcome, or you might believe that you have more power than you actually do. Even when you don’t have the power to create the outcome that you want, this doesn’t mean that you’re doomed. But keep in mind that “I want you to change” isn’t an option for an outcome. You have four options to decide between in terms of your ability to create the outcome you want: 1. I have the power, 2. I need to ask for help, 3. I need to make a request, or 4. I am powerless.  Making a request is often not the best option. If you’re an enthusiastic request-maker, ask yourself whether there’s another way to get your needs met before making a request. (If you tend not to ever make requests or as, this advice isn’t for you!)   Highlights from Episode #125: Welcome to the episode! We hear that today’s episode involves a deep dive into Step 3 of the 5-Step Boundary Solution. [00:39] Vicki reviews the first two steps of the 5-Step Boundary Solution process. [06:21] We hear the four options for your answers to Step 3, and Vicki shares an example to clarify how these options work. [09:28] The first option is “I have the power to create the outcome I want.” Vicki explores this one in more depth. [11:34] Vicki invites listeners to think of situations where you’ve been recurrently irritated by someone else’s behavior, and points out the problem with prioritizing others’ negative thinking. [20:49] We hear an example from Vicki’s life about how asking someone to change didn’t work, and learn what she does instead. [25:05] We learn about the second option: “I need to ask for help.” [26:50] Vicki talks about the third option: needing to make a request. She explains why it’s potentially problematic and might not be the best way to get the outcome you want. [29:01] There are definitely times when you need to make a request. We hear a few examples. [37:26] The fourth and final option is to acknowledge that you can’t create the outcome that you want: I am powerless. [41:31] Vicki explores an important caveat about choosing the fourth option.

Beyond Bitchy Podcast | Episode #12 – Your Power Center (Step 3 of the 5-Step Boundary Solution) Beyond Bitchy Podcast | Episode #124 – Repeat After Me: I Am Not Responsible For Other People’s Feelings!

You are not responsible for other people’s feelings. This may feel hard to believe if you tend to immediately feel responsible and guilty when someone is upset with you (as many of us do!). Tune in to learn how to navigate situations where someone else is blaming you for their reaction or feelings, and why it’s so dangerous to believe that we are responsible.   Biggest Takeaways From Episode #124: When you find yourself starting to take on the blame for someone being upset with you, start by asking yourself, “is it true that whenever someone is upset with me, I did something wrong?” Can you think of even one exception? Here’s a script you can use if you know that you tend to take on the blame when someone is upset with you: “Thanks for sharing your feelings with me. I need to take a couple hours (or minutes, or days) to think about what you shared, and then I’ll get back to you.” During the time you’re taking to think over the topic, assess whether you’re responsible for their feelings. Did you violate their boundaries in any way? Were you rude? Did you curse or call them names? Did you act in an offensive way? Is there another possible response that they might have had? Asking these questions will help you get clarity on whether you believe you’re responsible.   Highlights from Episode #124: Vicki welcomes listeners to the episode, which is all about emphasizing that you are not responsible for other people’s feelings. [00:39] We hear why Vicki is focusing on this topic today. [03:10] There are consequences and distorted beliefs that arise from thinking we’re responsible, Vicki explains. [08:14] Vicki shares a question to ask yourself when you’re in this situation, and shares an example from her own life. [10:46] We hear more advice on how to manage someone trying to hand you the blame for their feelings. [16:10] Doing the kind of inner exploration that Vicki has described will help you learn to be more objective in emotional situations. [21:50] Vicki offers examples of how your thoughts can lead to various responses to the same situation.

Today's Oddcast - That's Why They're Called "Maniacs" (Airdate 1/25/2021) The Bob & Sheri Oddcast: Everything We Don't, Can't, Won't, and Definitely Shouldn't Do on the Show!

Before we get into the main part of this episode, I have a big announcement! Starting in February, I’ll be offering monthly workshops to support you as you work your way through the 5-Step Boundary Solution process. Sign up for workshop updates and more details using this link! The idea of calibration is a hugely important one when you’re doing boundary work. This scale for what is standard or normal affects so many parts of our lives, from our initial reactions to people all the way to who we choose to date or to partner with. But just because you’re calibrated in a certain way regarding boundaries, it doesn’t mean you’re fated to stay there forever. You can change your calibration in a positive way, and this episode will help you get started.   Biggest Takeaways From Episode #118: The calibration we receive as children has many consequences over our lives. We are calibrated by our family around our own boundaries. For example, if we grow up in a boundary-less family, that will feel like "the norm" or standard to us. The way in which we are calibrated largely determines the people who we are attracted to, as well as the people who we feel repelled by. This explains why people often partner with people who are similar to their parents. Calibration isn’t static, and it can change. If you grew up in a family on the boundary-less end of the continuum and struggle to set boundaries with people, you can actively start to work on your boundaries. Calibration can change in the other direction too, with us becoming desensitized over time.   Highlights from Episode #118: Vicki welcomes listeners to the show and wishes everyone a happy New Year! She then shares the exciting announcement that she hinted at in the last episode of 2020. [00:39] Today’s episode is about calibration, Vicki explains, and chats about what that means. [03:32] We learn that there are three reasons why we’re generally most impressionable (in terms of calibration) when we’re children. [07:38] Vicki gives an overview of how calibration relates to boundaries in terms of standards. [10:01] How you’re calibrated can affect how you react to people, Vicki explains. [14:49] We hear some good news and some bad news about calibration. [20:46] How do you change your calibration in a positive way once you become aware of it? [24:55] Vicki talks about some simple ways for how to shift from being boundary-less to the healthy middle.

People tend to see their situations as special or unique, when in reality, that’s not the case most of the time. But we often get tripped up around exceptionalism when it comes to our boundaries. There are two common “unique snowflake” traps that we all fall into, and I’ll dig into both of them today. Remember that even though your situation may feel exceptional, the principles of the boundary work involved are the same.   Biggest Takeaways From Episode #116: The “unique snowflake trap” is the belief that there’s something unique about your situation that makes your boundary challenge or question unique or different from the standard principles. A common example of this is believing that boundaries are different with different people. In fact, boundaries with family members work exactly the same way as they do with other people. You still get to decide how you want to respond. Another common example sounds something like, “You just don’t understand. This person is different.” While this may feel true, the 5-Step Boundary Solution Clarifier still works for this situation.   Highlights from Episode #116: Vicki welcomes listeners to Episode 116, which will be about snowflakes and boundaries. We start off by learning about the history of the term “snowflake.” [00:39] We hear about the “unique snowflake trap,” which is one of the common things that trips people up around creating boundaries. [03:43] Vicki discusses whether boundaries are different depending on the role that different people have in your life. [05:02] You can decide that it’s okay with you if someone has a right to your body, but no one else gets to decide that for you. This illustrates Vicki’s point around family boundaries. [08:32] The second “unique snowflake” dynamic that Vicki talks about is some variation on “you just don’t understand; this person is different/an exception.” [09:49] Vicki digs into how the “unique snowflake” trap relates to the belief that getting someone else to change is the way to be happier or get our needs met.

When it comes to money-related issues, mum’s the word. Talking about wealth right now couldn’t be more charged. Did you know that 8 out of 10 people who are wealthy grew up in middle class or poor neighborhoods?! I didn’t. Have you ever felt bad for the rich? I have. Why? They are human just like everyone else! There’s a lot of stigma around the issue. This is why I am delighted to talk today with Jennifer Risher, author of the book We Need to Talk: A Memoir About Wealth and initiator of the social giving movement encouraging giving during COVID-19 called #HalfMyDAF. This effort called for spending (donating) the $120 Billion parked into Donor Advised Funds NOW. Head to CreatingCommunityForGood.com for full show notes, key takeaways and episode resources.

If you’ve ever gotten into an argument with someone else about the reality of a certain situation, or what “really happened,” this episode is for you. The fact is that your reality is what is true for you in the moment, and someone else having a different reality doesn’t mean that yours, or theirs, is either “correct” or “wrong.” Tune in to learn why it’s okay to disagree about reality, and why (as Terry Real says) there is no place for objective reality in relationships.   Biggest Takeaways From Episode #111: It’s very common for two people to experience the same situation or event very differently, and come away with different thoughts, emotions, or experiences. In the end, your reality is the only reality that you truly need—and it’s the only one you can have. This doesn’t mean that another person’s reality doesn’t matter, but you don’t need to come to an agreement about which one is “true” or “correct.” In a relationship, two people can share their realities with each other, and may or may not come to an understanding. But it’s not always necessary (or possible) to agree on what reality is. If you have a high need to agree about what happened, invite yourself to explore what comes up for you when you and your spouse see things in a fundamentally different way.   Highlights from Episode #111: Vicki welcomes listeners to today’s episode, which was inspired by several questions from a listener about coming to an understanding about reality.  [00:39] We hear the highlights and relevant questions that inspired this episode, which came in response to Vicki’s story from Episode #18 of the podcast. [04:09] Two people can have very different experiences of the same event, Vicki points out. [08:04] What exactly is reality? Vicki digs into the topic, and explores why reality is so subjective. [12:41] Vicki shares an example to explain her point about different realities. [16:20] There’s only one reality for you in any given moment: your reality.

Episode 10: I truly believe when we can shift our perspective on boundaries, it makes them more successful & easier to set. If you're anything like me, holding limits with your children can be the hardest part of parenting. Am I right or am I right? Yet, I’m also understanding that having & holding limits for my children is actually how they feel safe & secure. That, right there, is enough to keep me strong in my commitment to be intentional with the guardrails I put in place for my children. Our children need limits to guide them. A lack of boundaries creates chaos in them, never knowing what's okay, what's not, and when. And here's the thing, (maybe this is why it's so hard) we have to balance this all out with honoring our children's need & desire for autonomy. Guide them while also letting them free to make choices. I like to think of boundaries as something completely different than rules. Rules are rigid and are usually sourced from a place of anger or fear. Boundaries are limits that are proactively established with intention in order to guide & teach values but also to honor our own, unique limits. Boundaries support cooperation. Rules create resistance. Cooperation at the expense of connection isn't really cooperation. It's compliance. Compliance only lasts so long. And is that really what we want? I think we really want a deep connection with our kiddos while also having an easier go of daily life. Well then, connection comes first. It must. When our children feel connected, they want to cooperate. They want to be helpful. But when we're angry, yelling & dysregulated, we are seeking to control through punishments & reprimands. It is human nature to resist force. So it simply does not work to force compliance. The absolute best way to influence your child's future choices is through connection. Plus, it feels better. It feels good to be working together, loving & respecting each other. The way we do this is through holding personal boundaries for ourselves & holding limits for our children. This is highly unique to each person and family. Boundaries place limits on the behavior while acknowledging & seeking to understand the need or feeling driving the behavior. They’re not punishments. Punishments are behavior focused. They’re the attempt to gain short term control at the expense of long term connection.Children are always trying to establish a sense of self. The more we exert control the more they will fight for their autonomy. We have to stop creating the fight. Stop holding their resistance against them. Expect it. Welcome it. Support them through it. Work to connect. To collaborate. It will require you to respect yourself through holding personal boundaries that your child won't like. It’ll require you to hold space for some BIG feelings. It IS possible to be firm AND kind. To be respectful. To hold the limit while preserving the relationship.Listen to part 1 & 2 of the Boundaries mini-series below:Episode 8: Boundaries Part 1: Why They feel SO Freaking HardEpisode 9: Boundaries Part 2: Navigating RelationshipsIf you’re loving what you’re hearing and you desire support between episodes, join me in the Thrive in Motherhood community.

I’ve definitely felt left out, forgotten, or excluded… and I’m guessing you have, too. This episode, which was inspired by a listener’s question, is about what to do when you feel that way. I’ll do things a little differently this time! Using the question as a foundation, I’ll walk you through the 5-Step Boundary Solution Process. (Follow along with the 5-Step Boundary Solution Clarifier.)   Biggest Takeaways From Episode #110: Trying to figure out the “why” of someone who makes you feel left out is generally a distraction and a waste of time. You can only get the answer by asking them, and they may or may not tell the truth. There are two options for how to stop the sort of situation that the listener has described: try to get the other person to change, or make your own changes. People don’t “make” us feel left out (or anything else). Instead, it’s our own thoughts about the data that make us feel a certain way. In this situation of feeling left out, you have two options for taking action: limit or stop contact with the person/people involved, or make a specific request of them.   Highlights from Episode #110: Welcome to Episode #110! Vicki talks about the feeling of being left out, which is something we all go through. [00:39] We hear the listener’s question that inspired this episode, as well as a quick recap of the 5-Step Boundary Solution Clarifier. [03:30] Vicki talks about how the first step of the process applies to this situation. [07:50] We hear how the second step works in Vicki’s example of feeling left out. [14:33] The third step is to identify your power center. Vicki explains which of the four options fit. [17:27] Vicki points out that the listener who asked today’s question has the power to make this situation stop. [26:40] The fourth step is to take action based on what we’ve discovered. Vicki goes into depth about how this could work in this situation. [28:39] Vicki chats about the fifth step, which is evaluating your results. [35:43] We hear a quick recap of the points that Vicki has covered in today’s episode.

Episode 9: Ah, boundaries. They can be tricky, can't they? Especially when setting them within our relationships. It can feel SO much easier to just not even deal with them. But, they are necessary for healthy relationships. And when we can shift our perspective to seeing them for what they really are: doorways to what we’re available for that support and fortify our relationships, they get a little easier to navigate. Healing work is vital in helping us set boundaries. Healthy mental & emotional boundaries release us from the responsibility of other's emotional states. This isn't to say we are unkind to others or don't care about how they feel. We do. It's simply understanding that:a) it's up to us to take care of ourselves, to meet our own needs andb) we actually don't have control over how they feel. All of this comes with awareness as we do the healing work. It is possible to be kind and firm. It's letting other's know what we are available for, meaning, what type of behavior we will engage with.As you consistently set & hold boundaries it frees up your energy to support the relationship.So often we let go of our boundaries to avoid starting a fight or a tantrum. Look, I get it. I don't want to experience the uncomfortable feelings that often arise as boundaries are set & held. But as you ignore a boundary, you are suppressing your needs. And I promise the anxiety & guilt lessens as you hone this skill. And again, as you do the healing work, you get better at regulating your own emotional state, making this process less triggering for you. You'll know if boundaries are needed in your relationship if you're feeling anger, frustration, and especially resentment. Resentment is always a sign that you have given your power away & not held a boundary. The key is to set a boundary for yourself, not as a punishment for the other person. They are what YOU will or won't do given the circumstances. They don't require someone else to do something so that you get what you want. They are all about personal responsibility. Setting empowered boundaries is giving a clear path to others of what we are available for. We get to choose to not engage when others aren't treating us how we'd like. And we will choose to honor those boundaries as we value ourselves. When we can set them firmly yet with kindness & with a focus on connection they are SO much more effective.Others will likely resist your new boundaries. They might believe THEIR emotions are because of YOUR choices and they will try to put that on you. But with self-awareness, we can regulate our own emotional state & not take responsibility for others. We grow in our self-confidence, trust & compassion for ourselves every time we hold a boundary. Boundaries build our self-esteem because it takes courage to make yourself a priority.Bottom line: Boundaries are a way to take care of ourselves. When we set boundaries, we’re less angry and resentful because our needs are getting met. Boundaries make our expectations clear, so others know what to expect from us and how we want to be treated. Boundaries are the foundation for happy, healthy relationships.If you missed Episode 8: Boundaries Part 1: Why They feel SO Freaking Hard, check it out here.If you’re loving what you’re hearing and you desire support between episodes and you’re not a member of the Thrive in Motherhood community, consider this your invitation to join.

The reality is that we violate other people’s boundaries all the time, and tell ourselves that we have a right to do it. But is that true? Is it ever okay to violate someone else’s boundaries? You may already know the answer as soon as you hear the question, but there are a lot of nuances to this complex topic, so we’ll take a deep dive into it.   Biggest Takeaways From Episode #109: If you have an agreement with another person about something that’s usually a boundary, such as an open phone policy between partners, it’s not a boundary violation. Each of us has a right to our bodies and our physical belongings (such as our phones, computers, or journals). We cannot control other people. If you try to control another person, you damage connection and intimacy. If you’re tempted to violate someone’s boundaries, be honest with yourself about what you’re really concerned about. Remember that other people are free to make their own choices—even if they are poor, unhealthy, or self-destructive choices. How will your intrusion into their circle of control be helpful to your relationship with them? When you have the power to protect yourself, do it! But if something you need or want relies on another person changing their behavior, you don’t have control over that.   Highlights from Episode #109: Vicki welcomes listeners to the show and shares the question at the heart of today’s episode: is it ever okay to violate another person’s boundaries? [00:39] We get a refresher on what boundary violations and ruptures are, with a few examples. [05:55] The listener question that inspired this episode relates to the physical boundary, Vicki explains. She then shares examples of times when we might be tempted to violate boundaries. [11:26] What do you do if you’re tempted to violate another person’s boundaries? [15:50] We often focus on trying to get more information, instead of what we can do to protect ourselves, Vicki explains. She then shares another consideration to take into account when you’re tempted to violate a boundary. [20:12] Vicki suggests a few questions to ask yourself when tempted to violate a boundary. [23:13] We all end up violating another person’s boundaries from time to time. However, there’s a cost to intimacy when we do that.

New York University professor Mark Crispin Miller simply asked his students to do research on masking before they believed the narrative of the mainstream media. After all, he was teaching a class called "Mass Persuasion and Propaganda." The very idea of the class is to foster recognition of the tools of persuasion and propaganda that are a daily part of the students' society, culture, and news media. For this, one student reported Miller to the administration, demanding, on Twitter, that he be fired. This is not the first time Miller has been called before an NYU board, as you will hear on this episode of "The Midnight Writer News Show." Miller joins S.T. Patrick to discuss the controversy, the efficacy of masking, the devolution of the left, the failures of the media, and much more. Mark Crispin Miller operates a popular daily mailing list that can and should be followed at MarkCrispinMiller.com. You can sign the petition to "Support Academic Freedom" here. Miller is also the editor of the Forbidden Bookshelf series from Open Road Media. He is the author of Boxed In: The Culture of Television (1988), Seeing Through Movies (edited, 1990), The Bush Dyslexicon: Observations on a National Disorder (2001), Cruel and Unusual: Bush/Cheney's New World Order (2004), and Fooled Again: How the Right Stole the 2004 Election and Why They'll Steal the Next One Too (Unless We Stop Them) (2005).

We’ve all been there: you’ve said “yes” to something, and then later changed your mind or realized that it’s not a fit for you. So what do you do? Are you obligated to follow through with your initial answer, or are you allowed to change your mind? (If you’ve read the title of the episode, you already know the answer!) Let’s talk about how to handle this situation, and how to navigate it gracefully. Biggest Takeaways From Episode #108: While this episode was inspired by a question about wedding invitations, the answer applies to all sorts of topics. You might experience this desire to shift from a “yes” to a “no” after saying you would help someone with something, or go to dinner, an event, or someone’s house, for example. You always get to change your mind. However, there may be consequences. People will have their feelings about your choice to change your mind or not follow through. Would you rather feel briefly uncomfortable by changing your “yes” to a “no,” or would you rather spend time following through with something that you don't want to do and then feel resentful? Often, a huge amount of relief follows changing your answer to “no.”   Highlights from Episode #108: Welcome to the show! Today’s episode will be all about what to do when you’ve changed your mind. [00:39] Vicki shares a story that’s particularly relevant to the question that inspired this episode. [03:04] We hear a suggestion for what the listener could say in her situation. [04:31] If you’re thinking Vicki’s advice on changing your mind doesn’t apply to your situation, she clarifies how it does apply and might play out. [08:16] You could offer an alternative, Vicki points out. [10:33] Vicki recommends going back to Episode 1 and starting from there if you’re new to the podcast and want to learn more about creating healthy, effective boundaries.

There’s a simple call for all of us who claim to be followers of Jesus: Love others.But when it comes to LGBTQ+ people, we can let fear and misunderstanding get in the way of that call.Do you feel clear about what the Bible says about homosexuality? What does discipleship look like for Christians who experience same-sex orientation? What are we calling them to?Today we talk with Dr. Preston Sprinkle, a biblical scholar and NY Times best-selling author with a ministry centered on faith, sexuality, and gender. He tells us 83% of LGBTQ people were raised in the Christian Church and 51% leave by the time they turn 18. Why? They were alone and scared. Bad church experiences can push LGBTQ people out of churches. We can change that with love and kindness and grace.Everyone deserves dignity because they’re made in the image and likeness of God.That truth holds true for every LGBTQ+ person.Jesus came with grace and truth, and He surprised us all with how astonishingly kind he was…even when facing death. Will we follow?Join us for this important conversation.Guests:Dr. Preston Sprinkle is a biblical scholar, an international speaker, and a New York Times bestselling author. He earned a Ph.D. in New Testament from Aberdeen University in Scotland (2007), and he's been a professor of theology at Cedarville University (OH), has taught at Nottingham University (England), and Eternity Bible College (CA and ID).Highlights:We should be able to dignify the humanity of another person and be kind to them while holding true to our convictions, holding onto the Bible83% of LGBTQ people were raised in the Christian church. 51% leave by the time they turn 18.By avoiding the conversation, doesn’t mean the conversation isn’t happeningResources/Extras:“People to be Loved: Why Homosexuality is Not Just an Issue” by Dr. Preston Sprinkle“Us versus Us: The Untold Story of Religion and the LGBT Community” by Andrew MarinTruly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for me and the gospel 30 will fail to receive a hundred times as much in this present age: homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, and fields—along with persecutions—and in the age to come eternal life. -Mark 10:29-30https://www.centerforfaith.comTranscription:Full Transcription Available hereOriginal music by Shannon Smith.

Have you ever felt disrespected by what someone chose to wear (or not wear) around you, your romantic partner, or other loved ones? And what should you do when someone else’s attire makes you feel uncomfortable? The sometimes-difficult truth is that you don’t control what other people wear, but that doesn’t mean you don’t have any options. Tune in to learn about your choices in this situation, and what’s within your circle of control.   Biggest Takeaways From Episode #106: We have complete power over the limits that we are able to create for ourselves. For example, if you decide that you want to live separately from another person, the only way to guarantee that will happen is for you to move somewhere else. If something requires the participation of another person, it’s not generally within your circle of control. The only power that you have to change another person’s behavior or get them to do something is to make a request. That other person then needs to agree to your request. As hard as it can be to accept, the way someone else dresses is completely up to that person. If you’re uncomfortable with how someone else is dressed, there are two basic things you can do. You can change what you do with regard to this person, or you can make a request.   Highlights from Episode #106: Welcome to this episode! Vicki introduces what today’s topic will be, and invites listeners to join her free live virtual event. [00:39] We hear the email that Vicki received that inspired the topic of this episode. [01:50] Vicki reviews some of the basics of how boundaries work. [05:43]  The listener who asked the question that inspired today’s episode may feel a little fearful or threatened, Vicki points out. [08:34] What would Vicki do if she were in this situation? She answers, then talks about how you might approach making a request in this example. [10:47] Vicki explains that in this situation, it comes down to “live and let live” while doing what you need to do to feel comfortable. [16:35] Vicki talks about being very honest with yourself and questioning whether your own thoughts are true.

How to Reach Executive Decision Makers, and Why They are Listening Right Now In previous episodes, we've covered that sales reps have to touch base with several people within their industry, especially the executive decision-makers. This may seem a  daunting task in today's climate but it's necessary.    In this episode, we talk to Jeremy Miller, the founder of Sticky Branding. His experience in moving through recessions with the family business, and with his own brand, prepared him for the economic downturn that resulted from covid. With the knowledge he's accumulated, he's helping other businesses turn it around and in many cases, launch even better.    Reach out executives The pandemic leveled the playing field for all - every sales rep and even the executives are going through the same experiences together. Almost all businesses are in a state of change as they push the threshold of what they've known as common business practices.  They're having to relearn where to listen. Sales reps who are equipped with the right knowledge and who are positioning themselves to talk with the right executives are going to see success despite current industry standards.    Bring value to the executives  There are three ways to sell:    feature benefits selling  solution perspective selling  provoking the customer   Jeremy suggests that the last one is the best approach today as businesses right now are changing. As a sales rep, ask yourself, “Who needs the expertise of our company most right now?” Approach your customers with the question, “Who in your organization knows about the need first?”  Ask them what their problems are and offer them a solution.    The business executive team should be looking at the market and asking the important questions: Where do we play? How do we win? What are the issues that our clients are facing?  It's a team effort Have a team meeting that talks about value proposition and the sales efforts on a weekly basis. Make it a dedicated meeting and discuss how you sell right now. What are the shifts you are making as a company? Talk about the strategies that work and get feedback from everyone on the team.   Sales is the sharp end of the spear when it comes to business development. The organization must learn to adapt with the trend and make the necessary changes to have a competitive advantage. Sales teams who are thriving keep everyone in their organization from getting laid off.    “How to Reach Executive Decision Makers, and Why They are Listening Right Now” episode resources Follow Jeremy Miller on LinkedIn now to learn more.    If you are interested in more sales stories, you can talk to Donald directly.

Ask any boss what is his or her least favorite task at work and they will probably say, "Hiring". Why? Maybe you have heard the phrase, "Good help is hard to find." Having to go through resumes, schedule interviews, and not find the right candidate— the boss quickly realizes that maybe a recruiting agency would just be better. Also, hiring can often feel like playing a game of chance. For instance, your company is running fine right now, but you want to be optimal. However, optimal looks scary because of risk; the person may be wrong for the company, he or she may be horrible at the job, or money could be lost. Risk is always going to be a possibility. Maybe the issue isn't so much that they keep finding the wrong person, but rather they aren't attracting the right people to their companies. When you think of careers that are easy to get into, being a Navy SEAL probably doesn't come to mind. Long hours, risk of death, and extreme physical discomfort aren't on most job candidate's bucket list. That is the point. The Navy does not make it easy to become a Navy SEAL. Why? They only want the best of the best. If candidacy was easy, America would have the worst Special Forces in the world. Yet, companies don't hire this way. Many cycle through employees like someone changing a shirt and wonder why they can't find good hires. Making hiring difficult is not a possible method, it is the only method. Cream rises to the top and so do the best hires. Those that want to succeed will not be daunted by the challenges of being hired, but will gladly embrace them. If a company doesn't know who to hire or how to hire, it's possible they haven't thought through their mission, vision, and values. In fact, if someone asked employees what those were, they probably wouldn't even know them. If employees don't know them, how can the right person be expected to be attracted to the organization?

Women, do you fully understand the difference between making a request and expressing a desire? The concept of expressing a desire as an alternative to making a request is a relatively new one for me, and I want to explore it with you in depth today. I’ll give you some guidelines and suggestions that will help you understand both and learn to use whichever works best for your situation. Biggest Takeaways From Episode #102: Requests are always questions, and there are three possible responses: yes, no, or a negotiated alternative. It will serve you to train your ear to hear whether someone is actually making a request, which requires a question. Laura Doyle introduced me to the concept of “expressing desires in a way that inspires.” When expressing a desire, it needs to be a pure desire — about what you want, and does not include a "you" or "we," either directly or indirectly. Expressing a desire must also include detaching from the outcome. You may or may not receive the desire you expressed.  If an issue ranks at or above a 7/10 in terms of importance or is about your safety, a request is a better fit than expressing a desire. Highlights from Episode #102: Welcome to this episode! Vicki talks about what she’ll cover, and reminds listeners to visit her ongoing 30-day Facebook Live series. She also mentions her team at Pro Podcast Solutions, and announces that Beyond Bitchy is now available on Spotify!  [00:39] Vicki talks about the concept for today’s episode, where it came from, and how it relates to gender roles and potentially same-sex relationships. [03:29] Making a request is part of Step 4 of the 5-Step Boundary Solution Clarifier. Vicki digs into this in more depth, and talks about how requests function. [06:04] In order to be really successful with making requests, you need to have some credit in your relationship “bank account.” [13:54] Vicki shifts into talking about expressing desires, a concept she got from Laura Doyle. [15:44] What are the rules and guidelines for expressing desires in a way that inspires? [20:42] Vicki shares a personal story as an example of expressing a desire not having a specific outcome. [25:34] We learn how to tell when to make a request instead of expressing a desire.

Has someone close to you made the decision not to wear a face mask? I experienced this recently, and  I know that many of you have faced this issue as well. Today’s episode is dedicated to the topic. To help you understand how you can respond to this situation, I’ll walk you through exactly what I did and said, how it turned out, and the choices you can make when you find yourself in a similar position. And a quick announcement: I’ll be holding another amazing live video call — Clarity Circle — on Friday, August 14th. Learn more sign up at this link! Biggest Takeaways From Episode #101: Should we wear a face mask even though they aren’t 100% effective? The fact is that 100% is not a metric we expect when dealing with situations affecting our safety. We make choices all the time around things that aren’t 100% effective, such as locking our doors at night, wearing seatbelts, and even using contraceptives. You can use the 5-Step Boundary Solution process to help you navigate situations in which someone close to you doesn’t wear a face mask. As you apply your new skills in situations like this, part of your work is to stay on your side of the street and maintain a respectful, warm connection with the other person. If you’re very triggered, it may help to express that you’re feeling that way and that you’d like to have some time and talk about it later. In the end, you get to be the decider and figure out what works for you and how to move forward.   Highlights from Episode #101: Vicki welcomes listeners to today’s episode and introduces its topic. She also reminds listeners about her 30-day Facebook Live event. [00:39] We hear about a recent experience that Vicki had involving face masks, as well as the recent hype in the news about face masks. [02:21] If masks aren’t 100% effective, does that mean we should just skip wearing them? [07:54] Vicki talks about what to do when a loved one doesn’t or won’t wear a mask, and shares more about her recent experience. [10:30] Vicki walks listeners through what she ended up doing in her encounter with someone close to her not wearing a mask. [18:47] We hear about how Vicki focused on knowing who this person is at heart, and some examples of her friend's self-described “paranoia.” [26:10] Vicki confesses another part of her response, which she isn’t as proud of. We also learn how the woman in question eventually responded. [30:08] The strength of Vicki’s strategy is that she left the “problem” to the other woman; she didn’t make a request or create a power struggle. [34:55] Have you ever picked up a new set of skills and then started using them to control, manipulate, or dominate? [43:47] Vicki points out that you ultimately get to be the decider to figure out how to move forward, and talks about a key factor that hangs people up around seeing their options.

Can you believe that next week will already be Episode #100? Wow! Stay tuned for something special. But for now, let’s talk about a topic inspired by the listener questions archive. Even if you love to get up close and personal with others, there has probably been a time when you wanted someone to just back off and give you space. And yes, this even applies during the pandemic! Tune in to learn how to navigate this situation and create the space you need.   Biggest Takeaways From Episode #99: Both during this pandemic and after it, we’ll encounter people who don’t give us as much space as we would like. Many of us tend not to take or ask for more space because we don’t want to be rude or hurt someone’s feelings. This is a self-defeating mindset, because you’re prioritizing what you think someone else’s feelings may be over your own needs. You can use non-verbal methods to create space, like putting your shopping cart behind you in line, or sticking your purse, elbow, or foot out to expand your space. Another option is to be more animated, making larger movements with your arms or body. If you want to say something, try “excuse me, I need a little bit more room, could you move over/back up a little bit?” Make sure you don’t place the blame by saying “you’re too close” or “you’re crowding me”; make it all about yourself and your needs, then make your request.   Highlights from Episode #99: Vicki welcomes listeners to the episode and mentions her 30-day Facebook Live event. [00:39] We hear the listener question that inspired today’s episode. [04:10] Vicki digs into the poignant aspect of the question in light of the current situation with the pandemic. [09:48] What do you do when you’re the person on the receiving end of just a bit too much closeness from another person? [14:55] Vicki talks about several options for what you can do when you notice you need more physical space. [17:19] We learn about an option that involves just letting someone else go ahead of you. [21:37] One of the best-kept secrets about boundaries is that they’re about getting space.

“If you’re going to be a coach who has bad drama with another coach, and you're going to put them on blast, have the decency to tag that coach in your social media post. Why? They deserve the respect to defend themselves and their brand.”   This week on the Fierce as F*ck Podcast, I am dropping the truth on why it’s so important we maintain integrity in our coaching business. If you’re a coach and you’re going to passive-aggressively talk sh*t about another coach, have the integrity to at least tag them in that post.    This drama I’m seeing of coaches ripping other coaches down, I’m not going to get wrapped up in that. It’s ridiculous, we’re grown a** women, let’s act like it.    When you call another coach out and talk sh*t, you are damaging their reputation and don’t realize it. One woman will see that post and assume she can’t trust a single coach. This could be a woman who desperately needs help and wants to change her life, but she will assume all coaches are corrupt. That one woman is now alone and doesn’t get the help she needs, you cause that.   If you’re going through some drama or negativity with a coach, reach out to them and speak to them first. Maintain your integrity by giving them that respect. This whole passive-aggressive bullsh*t, it’s not helping anybody, it’s doing more harm than good.    If you enjoyed this episode, take a screenshot of the episode to post in your stories and tag me!

The Lord reproaches the villages where he he performed many mighty miracles. Why? They did not repent and change their lives. May we take this lesson to heart as we turn away from sin and follow Christ. July 14, 2020 - Cathedral Rectory - Superior, WI Fr. Andrew Ricci - www.studyprayserve.com  

The buds break down some modern day marvels in this episode including the following:1: SascayhumanA large retaining wall like thing ‘built’ by the Incas in 1438-1471 CE (common era). The rocks weighed up to 360 tons each (720,000 lbs) and were transported over 20 miles before they were set into place like a fucking tetris puzzleHistory as we know it: 20,000 workers, rotation with 6k in quarry and 4k in the trenches. Used rope and lever system to transport Theory: Aliens used ships to transport heavy rocksLocation: Peru2: Nasca LinesCalled Geoglyphs, they are etchings into the rust colored rocks, creating a white etching of animals. There are over 800 lines, 300 geometric shapes and 70 animal figures including a spider, monkey, hummingbird and what appears to look like an alien figure. The longest run of straight lines run for miles and the biggest shapes are around 1200 feet across. These were constructed between 500BCE and 500CE, but the kicker is, the shapes are best seen from an airplane.Why: They originally thought that it was to be aligned with the constellations and the stars, but now believed to be in relation to ceremonial and ritual sites for water and fertility.Theory: Aliens are artists to you prickLocation: Peru3: Easter IslandEaster Island is a large fleet of human stone figures, 900 to be exact. Average 13’ tall and weigh about 14 tons each. Not super interesting outside of the fact that they were huge and weighed a ton4: StonehengeHuge circle of stones that weigh up to as much as 50ton hundreds of miles away from the area they were quarried in. It was built around 2900 BC, and the civilization has left behind nothing to let us know how they were built or transported. Moving them would have been a bitch, even if the wheel had been invented at that point, which it wasn’t. History as we know it: They likely used logs to roll them, but this isn’t provenTheory: Aliens! One theory is that they built it as a landing pad of sorts!5: Face on MarsIn 1976, the Viking 1 sent pictures back to home base from mars. Amongst those pictures was a rock that appears to be a human face. Nasa originally said that the image was just an effect of shadows on a hill, but the general public didn’t buy that. Theory: It was the remnants of an ancient martian civilization6: Pyramids:Probably the most famous alien building conspiracy. The pyramids are an absolute marvel and were built over 4,500 years ago. Now these are just the Egyptian pyramids, they are in much better shape than pyramids in other locations built centuries later. There are 3 pyramids in total, 2 almost the exact same size and one that is smaller. Each has millions of precisely chiseled and weighed at least 2 tons each. Not only was it built to damn near perfection, but also built extremely fast.

We'll be taking a look at his business to discuss strategies that will take his brand to the next level.  I rarely get to interview people on the podcast who experienced when the Internet first came out, so today's episode is a fun one because it's not everyday where I get a guest who's older than I am.  What sets Troy and I apart though, is that Troy saw the internet as the world's next big thing, and so, Troy made the choice to start a website selling t-shirts that were geared towards his love of the outdoors.  He ran Fishface, his t-shirt brand, both online and offline for awhile but as he started to see some success selling t-shirts in fairs and festivals, his online sales struggled to keep up.  Troy's come to a point now where he realised that things could be so much easier, and so much more profitable if he picked up the online aspect of his business and really started focusing on it, and so, this is where we are today.  In today's episode, we talk about:  The Importance of Shipping Fees in Today's Business Model, How Blogging and Content Creation Can Boost Your Sales in the Long Term, How Facebook Ads' Targeting Work, and Why They're Perfect for Troy's Business Building an Audience through Email Lists  Today’s the LAST day of Premium! Subscribe to EcomCrew Premium for one-on-one support with your business, access to a private Facebook group, two webinars every month where you get to ask us questions and learn from experts, and also discussing strategies on how to improve your ecommerce business.
