Podcasts about Wishful thinking

De Amerikaanse inflatie daalde naar 3,4 procent, waar die in mei nog ruim boven de 4 procent lag. Op de financiële markten nestelde zich meteen het beeld dat de Fed dit jaar de rente niet meer hoeft te verhogen — vóór deze cijfers werd daar nog wel rekening mee gehouden. Macro-econoom Edin Mujagić vindt dat een veel te grote conclusie op basis van een daling van 0,1 procentpunt. Welke inflatiemaatstaf je ook pakt, de inflatie is al ruim vijf jaar veel te hoog. En de rekenregels van de Fed zelf wijzen op een rente die fors hoger zou moeten liggen dan de huidige. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Conversations on Groong - August 8, 2026In this episode of Conversations on Groong, we speak with Hrant Mikaelian about Armenia's Western pivot and the opening of the new parliament.

Next week: a two-part conversation 'Hero of the Day' with Silvana, a mom outside Sydney whose son was headed down one road until she kept asking whether it might be a different one. Her husband told her she was wishing it away. The hospital humored her. She turned out to be right, and by then the asking had cost the family a year and a half. The song you're about to hear is called "Wishful Thinking." It's from her side of it. There's nothing in it about diabetes, because the part of her story that stuck with me isn't medical. It's what it feels like to be the least credentialed person in the room and keep raising your hand anyway. About the song I made a song out of Silvana's story. It's called "Wishful Thinking," and yes, I used AI to produce the audio. Here's how it worked. I read both transcripts and pulled the real details out of them — the blood draw at eight in the morning and the phone call by two, the plate her son wouldn't touch, three in the morning doing the math in the dark, the fact that she never cried about her own boy until she saw a stranger's kid in a clinic chair. Her husband's actual words were that she was just wishing it away. That line is the whole song, and she said it to me, not a computer. The rest was choosing. What to leave out, what the thing was really about, where the quiet part goes, what a chorus has to do. There's nothing in it about diabetes, no diagnosis, no test results, and I never use her son's name. That was on purpose. He's fourteen and the hardest parts of that year belong to him, not to a song. So: the story is hers. The choices are mine. The singer is a machine. More at Juiceboxpodcast.com/jukebox

The mayor of a flood-prone town says it's wishful thinking that the government will help councils to fund their climate adaptation plans. The government has introduced a bill that would make adaptation planning mandatory for areas at high risk from climate change hazards like flooding and sea level rise. But it's kicked the big question of funding into the next parliamentary term, despite growing calls to deal with that issue now. Climate change correspondent Kate Newton reports.

Send us Fan MailObtaining justice in court is a never-ending process of learning; self-development; blood, sweat and tears; self discovery; inter-discovery; often deep pain that can transform into strength and growth, but often with more pain along the way; banding together with birds of a feather; and giving back what we have learned. Texas criminal defense lawyer -- moved recently from Houston to Maryland -- Eric J. Davis (until he has a website, reachable at eric.davis@gmx.us and 713-227-2727) believes strongly in giving back what he has learned, and in integrating what he learns into what he already knows, rather than shedding valuable experience and ability with the latest teachings. Fairfax, Virginia criminal defense lawyer Jon Katz met Eric at the spring 2026 National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers program, and learned that Eric, like Jon, is a Trial Lawyers College alum, where Eric is on the TLC board and staff. Eric is also a member of the NACDL board of directors. He states straight out that the criminal justice system evolved out of racism, and finds positive ways to deal with that, including bringing race to the attention of jurors so that they will help criminal defendants when they spot racial bias and unfairness. Eric is full of optimistic energy and fight, including in talking about his acquittal for a firearm defendant by focusing on how police rushed to judgment and narrowed themselves to finding evidence to prove him guilty, rather than considering other possible suspects after finding a firearm in an empty vehicle.  Eric talks about how his experience with the Trial Lawyers College and its focus on psychodrama and storytelling helped him feel freer in pursuing justice for his clients, including focusing on the emotions of the case, the emotions of the jurors and of the actors in the case and their motivations for how they acted. Eric tells a great personal story during jury selection / voir dire to inspire them to be open about racial issues -- rather than expecting to transform their prejudices in the short timespan of a trial -- by recounting how he had his defenses up when walking to fill his empty gas tank when a truck with an older white driver slowed down, and how the driver -- after they learned how much they had in common -- told Eric how he at first thought Eric was up to no good, and Eric confessed to having first had the same view of the truck driver. And then Eric asks the jurors about any assumptions they are making about race, to start the discussion. Pure brilliance. Rules that help for a fair trial for a criminal defendant are great, but often are few and far between, and are not always sufficiently enforced. That is why I prominently display a Gladiator film clip board in my office, as a reminder of how Russell Crowe's Maximus Decimus Meridius and his teammates win despite the absence of any rules protecting them, and despite the lowest and basest violence from their opponents. Eric Davis reminds us that we can win justice for criminal defendants even when the rules do not appear to be in our favor nor to be sufficiently enforced when those rules are favorable to criminal defendants. He starts by diving deep into the jury selection process, with conversations in which he steers guilty verdict-leaning jurors closer to his side, sometimes by adding one variation to the conversation at a time. (See minute 29 in his presentation here.)  We can open and widen avenues to acquittal. This Beat the Prosecution episode is also available on YouTube and Apple podcasts. This podcast with Fairfax, Virginia criminal / DUI lawyer Jon Katz is playable on all devices at podcast.BeatTheProsecution.com.

Provide your feedback here. Anonymously send me a text message. In this episode, Mike discusses the Quebec Court of Appeal decision R. v. Paul, 2026 QCCA 552, where a police officer saw a known drug user acting suspiciously late at night. This person was nervous, evasive and appeared uncomfortable about police presence. After speaking with the man, police  surreptitiously followed him, saw him approach a running vehicle with its headlights out, and watched as he appeared to interact with its driver. After noticing police, the man fled. Police then approached the vehicle and, using a flashlight, lit up its interior to find it occupied and observed an electronic scale with white residue on the floor. Police ordered the driver out of the vehicle to arrest him for drug possession and saw a baggie of cocaine on the seat where he was sitting. The driver was subsequently charged with PPT. Was the officer justified in approaching the vehicle? Was the use of a flashlight a search? Did the officer have enough grounds for an arrest? Did pulling back the arrestee's pants and underwear waistband when frisking him at the roadside amount to a "strip search"?Thanks for listening! Feedback welcome at legalissuesinpolicing@gmail.com

Damien Antony | Morning Glory 1901 | 24 April 2026Stop mourning over what you lost in the dry season; your divine harvest has been authorized by Heaven, and the seeds you sowed in tears are about to erupt into a shout of joy!The spiritual law of Sowing and Reaping is a fundamental pillar of the Kingdom of God, and in this powerful Malayalam Christian message, we decode why your Harvest Season is no longer delayed but is manifesting in 2026. Many believers find themselves trapped in a cycle of "Wishful Thinking," hoping for a breakthrough without understanding the Intention-Based Sowing required to break generational poverty and spiritual stagnation. This teaching, rooted in Psalm 126, explores the profound paradox of the "Sower's Tears"- the reality that the most significant spiritual growth often occurs during your most painful seasons of sacrificeകണ്ണുനീരോടെ വിതച്ചു മടുത്തോ? നിങ്ങളുടെ അത്ഭുതകരമായ കൊയ്ത്തിനുള്ള സമയം അതിക്രമിച്ചിരിക്കുന്നു. ആനന്ദത്തിന്റെ ഈ സന്ദേശം നിങ്ങളുടെ ജീവിതത്തെ മാറ്റിമറിക്കും!ദൈവവചനത്തിൻ്റെ അനുഗ്രഹങ്ങൾക്കായി Blessing Today ചാനൽ ഇപ്പോൾ തന്നെ Subscribe ചെയ്യൂ! ✨പുതിയ വീഡിയോകൾക്കായി Bell Icon അമർത്തുക.

Morgen komen de World Economic Outlook en het Global Financial Stability Report van het IMF uit. Daarover is in ieder geval één ding al zeker: onzekerheid is het nieuwe normaal. ‘De groei gaat omlaag en de inflatie omhoog’, zegt macro-econoom Edin Mujagic. Hoe reageren landen op die economische tegenwind? Bij veel landen bestaat de neiging om daarop te reageren met het idee dat als je er maar genoeg geld tegenaan gooit, het probleem zichzelf oplost. Heel concreet zie je dat bij het compenseren van mensen en bedrijven voor hogere energierekeningen. Daarachter zit een idee dat de afgelopen jaren populair is geworden: begrotingstekorten en staatsschulden doen er niet toe, je kunt onbeperkt geld bijdrukken en meer uitgeven dan er binnenkomt zonder nadelen. Wel de lusten, niet de lasten. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Markets are sending mixed signals with geopolitics, inflation, and positioning all pointing in different directions, raising concerns about whether this rally is real or just a temporary squeeze before the next leg down. This week, we break down how the proposed ceasefire and AI acceleration are colliding with market structure in a battle of fundamentals vs flows. We explore AI-led productivity boom, Trump's political dilemma, Fed policy uncertainty, gold's resurgence, and whether dispersion, not direction, is the real trade. Enjoy!

This Easter sermon explores how the resurrection of Jesus Christ transforms our understanding of hope from wishful thinking into worshipful living. Drawing from 1 Peter 1:3-9, the message emphasizes three fundamental changes the resurrection brings: new birth through Christ, a secure eternal inheritance, and meaningful purpose in present suffering. The sermon challenges believers to move beyond passive hope to active faith, illustrating how the empty tomb represents not just Christ's victory over death, but the possibility of spiritual rebirth for all who accept Him. The resurrection power that rolled away the stone can also roll away the stone from human hearts, offering transformation from spiritual death to abundant life with great expectation for eternity.

Execution turns vision into lasting results. You need a clear vision, defined systems of execution, and a culture of accountability.

We all want hope—but often settle for wishful thinking. Easter reminds us that real hope isn't based on feelings, but on the promise of Jesus. Discover how the resurrection meets you in your darkest moments and offers a hope that changes everything.

Darüber hinaus fährst du noch auf die Messe. Folglich bist du super busy. Allerdings könnten die Ergebnisse besser sein, wenn du ehrlich bist. Denn Akquise, neue Kunden und frische Angebote in der Pipeline gibt es viel zu wenig. Infolgedessen schieben sich die besten Deals schon wieder in den nächsten Monat. Schließlich ist das der klassische Reaktionsmodus, der dich und dein Vertriebsteam auf Dauer fertig macht. Deshalb wird es höchste Zeit für eine klare Sales Cadence. Denn als Vertriebsleiter musst du den Rhythmus und die Prioritäten vorgeben – und natürlich auch vorleben. Wie genau das funktioniert und wie du dein B2B Sales Team aus dem Reaktionsmodus holst, zeige ich dir in diesem Beitrag. Zudem ist das hier keine trockene Theorie, sondern vielmehr ein echter Baukasten für deinen Vertrieb. Warum ohne klaren Vertriebsrhythmus die wichtigste Arbeit liegen bleibt In der B2B-Welt verbringt ein Verkäufer im deutschen Mittelstand im Schnitt nur eine einzige Stunde am Tag aktiv mit dem Kunden. Tatsächlich ist der Rest reine Verwaltung, interne Abstimmung und reaktives Arbeiten. Das Problem ist dabei jedoch nicht nur die mangelnde Kundenzeit. Vielmehr ist das echte Problem: Die wichtigste Arbeit schafft es erst gar nicht in den Kalender. Die Eisenhower-Matrix als Leitfaden Hier hilft uns glücklicherweise die berühmte Eisenhower-Matrix. Demnach lassen sich Aufgaben in vier Felder einteilen, basierend auf den Achsen dringend und wichtig. Einerseits ist die lukrativste Arbeit im Vertrieb – also neue Kunden ansprechen, die Pipeline aufbauen und strategische Gespräche führen – extrem wichtig. Andererseits ist sie fast nie dringend. Dringend ist stattdessen das nächste Meeting, das klingelnde Telefon oder die E-Mail, die gerade reinkommt. Folglich gewinnt das Dringende im Alltag fast immer, weshalb die wichtigen Aufgaben ständig vor sich hergeschoben werden. Dementsprechend müssen wir das dringend ändern. Deine absolute Kernaufgabe als Führungskraft im Vertrieb ist es nämlich, dafür zu sorgen, dass genau diese wichtige, nicht dringende Arbeit den Kalender bestimmt. Kurzum: Der Vertrieb scheitert selten an schlechten Produkten. Stattdessen scheitert er daran, dass die wirklich wichtigen Dinge keinen Platz im Terminkalender finden. Was ist eigentlich eine Sales Cadence? Eine Sales Cadence (oder auch Vertriebsrhythmus) beschreibt ganz konkret, wie du den Ablauf einer Woche, eines Monats, eines Quartals und eines Jahres in deinem Vertriebsteam strukturierst. Dabei geht es vor allem darum, strategische Jahres- und Quartalsziele auf den einzelnen Tag herunterzubrechen. Schließlich entscheidet sich der Vertriebserfolg genau dort: In der alltäglichen Umsetzung. Der Startschuss für deine Sales Cadence: Das Friday-Sheet Tatsächlich starten die meisten Vertriebsteams völlig ungeplant am Montagmorgen in die Woche und fangen sofort an zu improvisieren. Zunächst arbeiten sie reaktiv E-Mails ab und verschwinden anschließend in internen Meetings. Am Freitag fällt dann schließlich auf, dass wieder zu wenig Akquise passiert ist. Zudem fehlen Neukunden in der Pipeline. Die Lösung dafür ist denkbar einfach: Das Friday-Sheet. Jeder Verkäufer plant am Freitag verbindlich seine kommende Woche. Idealerweise macht er das von Hand in ein gemeinsames Google Sheet, aber bloß nicht ins CRM. Folglich behältst du den Überblick. Dementsprechend gehören folgende Punkte in dieses Sheet: Die 4 entscheidenden Felder des Friday-Sheets Erstens – Neue Logos: Welche komplett neuen Kunden gehe ich nächste Woche proaktiv an? Dabei zählen keine Bestandskunden und keine warmen Kontakte! Falls hier nämlich nichts steht, hast du im nächsten Monat keine frische Pipeline. Folglich fällt dir das durch die 60-Tage-Regel in wenigen Wochen knallhart auf die Füße. Zweitens – Pipeline vorantreiben: Welche wichtigen Deals bewege ich nächste Woche weiter? Und zwar durch konkrete Aktionen! Schließlich ist "Ich fasse mal nach" keine echte Aktion. Stattdessen musst du wissen: Wer spricht mit wem, worüber und was ist das konkrete Ziel? Drittens – Abschlüsse: Welche Aufträge kommen nächste Woche sicher rein? Auch hier brauchst du unbedingt das "Warum". Warum sollte der Kunde ausgerechnet jetzt abschließen? Zudem musst du wissen, welches Event ihn treibt. Viertens – Sonstiges Wichtiges: Trage außerdem ein bis maximal drei weitere wirklich entscheidende Punkte ein, wie beispielsweise wichtige Messevorbereitungen. Am Freitagnachmittag schaust du dir diese Liste an. Dadurch siehst du sofort, ob die nächste Woche in die richtige Richtung läuft. Noch wichtiger ist jedoch: Du überprüfst, was der Verkäufer sich für die vergangene Woche vorgenommen hatte und was davon wirklich passiert ist. Kurzum, das ist dein wichtigster Ansatz für Führung und Sales Coaching! Golden Hours: So schützt du den Vertriebsrhythmus deiner Akquise Wenn deine Leute drei neue Logos angehen wollen, brauchen sie dafür natürlich Zeit. Falls der Kalender jedoch voll mit internen Schulungen ist, wird das reines "Wishful Thinking". Deshalb brauchst du in deiner Sales Cadence zwingend geschützte Akquisezeiten – die sogenannten Golden Hours. Definiere hierzu mit dem Team gemeinsame Slots, in denen absolut nichts anderes gemacht wird als Akquise. Das können beispielsweise zwei Vormittage pro Woche sein. Zudem muss die Recherche dafür vorher passiert sein. In diesem Slot werden dann Telefone umgeleitet und niemand checkt E-Mails. Schließlich entsteht eine unglaubliche Dynamik, wenn alle das gleichzeitig machen. Allerdings müssen diese Slots knallhart verteidigt werden. Folglich darf dort kein anderes Meeting reingelegt werden! Sales Meetings, die den Vertriebsrhythmus wirklich weiterbringen Ebenso darf dein wöchentliches Sales Meeting kein langweiliges Buchhalter-Meeting sein. Denn die Zahlen stehen ohnehin im CRM. Vielmehr geht es um die Zahleninterpretation und vor allem um das gemeinsame Learning. Fragt euch deshalb: Was haben wir vom Markt gelernt? Darüber hinaus solltet ihr prüfen, ob es neue Best Practices gibt. Baut zudem kurze Trainingseinheiten ein. Das kann Einwandbehandlung sein oder wie man an den Entscheider herankommt. Schließlich muss ein Sales Meeting Energie geben und inspirierend wirken. Das Montagabend-Update für mehr interne Dynamik Außerdem ist das Montagabend-Update ein echter Gamechanger. Schick einfach am Montagabend ein kurzes Update an das gesamte Unternehmen. Der Inhalt lautet schlicht: "Das sind die neuen Kunden, die wir diese Woche angehen." Infolgedessen wirst du staunen, was passiert. Sehr oft meldet sich daraufhin jemand aus einem anderen Team und sagt: "Hey, mein Kommilitone arbeitet jetzt dort!" Dadurch aktivierst du effektiv das verborgene Schwarmwissen deines Unternehmens. Somit machst du den Vertrieb zum wichtigen Thema für alle Abteilungen. One-to-Ones: Die Sales Cadence individuell steuern Genauso ist das One-to-One zwischen dir und dem Verkäufer dein mächtigstes Werkzeug in der Vertriebssteuerung. Deshalb führst du Kritik oder schwierige Gespräche niemals im Team-Meeting, sondern exklusiv hier. Außerdem solltest du den üblichen Smalltalk vergessen. Denn "Wie läufts? – Ach, zieht sich noch" bringt niemanden weiter! Stattdessen muss ein One-to-One hart strukturiert sein: Wo stehst du folglich mit deinen Zahlen im Vergleich zu den Zielen? Darüber hinaus analysieren wir gemeinsam die Pipeline. Zudem prüfen wir, ob es einen Skill-Fokus gibt (beispielsweise bei der Discovery). Schließlich nutzen wir den "Career Compass", um deine heutigen Aufgaben mit deinen Karrierezielen zu verbinden. A-, B- und C-Player im Rhythmus richtig führen Dementsprechend braucht jeder Verkäufer eine ganz andere Führung. Bei A-Playern fragst du vor allem, welche Hindernisse du aus dem Weg räumen kannst. Andererseits brauchen B-Player gezielte Entwicklung und eine engere Begleitung. Bei C-Playern brauchst du hingegen klare Erwartungen und schnelle Entscheidungen. Schließlich ist endloses Mitschleppen keine Option. Pipeline Flash und gemeinsame Kundentermine Zusätzlich zu den fixen Meetings brauchst du regelmäßige Pipeline Flashes. Warum hängen bestimmte Deals? Wie können wir sie gemeinsam loseisen? Deshalb ist es dein Job als Führungskraft, die Deals nach vorne zu pushen. Darüber hinaus begleitest du deine Leute regelmäßig zu Kundenterminen. Hält sich der Verkäufer tatsächlich an das Playbook? Allerdings übernimmst du dabei niemals das Gespräch! Du bist schließlich reiner Beobachter und nutzt das Ganze hinterher als Coaching-Opportunity. Monatliche und Quartals-Rhythmen in der Sales Cadence Außerdem zieht sich die Sales Cadence noch weiter. Monatlich schaut ihr euch die Account-Plans der Top-Kunden an. Zudem setzt ihr euch einen Skill pro Monat, den ihr im Team gezielt trainiert. Besonders kritisch ist es jedoch, sich quartalsweise die "Slipped Deals" anzuschauen. Das sind Deals, die nach hinten verschoben wurden. Falls die Pipeline nämlich plötzlich dünn wird, sind deine Verkäufer oft nicht nah genug am Kunden dran. Daher musst du in solchen Fällen sofort nachhaken! Konstanz: Den Vertriebsrhythmus als Schwungrad (Flywheel) nutzen Um all das umzusetzen, musst du jedoch zuerst bei dir selbst aufräumen. Deshalb holst du dir am besten sofort das Commitment von der Geschäftsführung. Du brauchst nämlich Freiräume und Schutz für dein Team. Schließlich kannst du dein Team nicht führen, wenn du durchgehend fremdgesteuert bist. Vergiss dabei niemals: Sales solves everything. Umsatz ist letztlich der ultimative Schutz gegen Übergriffigkeit im Unternehmen. Die Abwärtsspirale (Doomloop) verhindern Dementsprechend anstrengend ist das Etablieren dieser Sales Cadence. Es dauert nämlich gut drei bis vier Wochen, bis es greift. Es funktioniert quasi wie ein Flywheel (Schwungrad). Am Anfang musst du hart pushen und Widerstände überwinden. Allerdings wird es zu einem Automatismus, wenn es einmal läuft. Deshalb solltest du unbedingt die "Doomloop" vermeiden, bei der ständig neue Initiativen gestartet und sofort wieder fallen gelassen werden. Kurzum: Konsistenz schlägt Exzellenz. Mach folglich die richtigen Dinge konsequent, und dein Vertriebs-Schwungrad wird sich drehen. Gib alles! Quick Takeaways Erstens – Wichtig vor dringend: Die Akquise darf dem Tagesgeschäft nicht zum Opfer fallen. Zweitens – Friday-Sheet nutzen: Jeder Verkäufer plant freitags verbindlich seine Neukunden. Drittens – Golden Hours verteidigen: Schaffe absolut störungsfreie Slots exklusiv für Akquise. Viertens – One-to-Ones strukturieren: Führe harte, aber wertschätzende Gespräche über die Pipeline. Fünftens – Slipped Deals analysieren: Hinterfrage hartnäckig, warum Deals ständig verschoben werden. Schließlich – Flywheel etablieren: Bleib konsequent. Konsistenz im Vertrieb schlägt stets kurzfristige Exzellenz. Was genau ist eine Sales Cadence? Eine Sales Cadence (oder Vertriebsrhythmus) ist ein festgelegter, strukturierter Ablauf von Vertriebsaktivitäten über Tage, Wochen und Monate. Sie bestimmt folglich, wann geplant, akquiriert, gecoacht und reportet wird, um den Vertrieb aus dem reaktiven Modus zu holen. Warum sollte das Friday-Sheet freitags und nicht montags ausgefüllt werden? Am Montagmorgen holt den Verkäufer meist schon das Tagesgeschäft ein. Die Woche reaktiv zu beginnen, verhindert deshalb strategische Planung. Freitags ist der Kopf hingegen klarer für die verbindliche Zielsetzung der nächsten Woche. Was sind Golden Hours im B2B Sales? Golden Hours sind im Terminkalender fix blockierte, geschützte Zeiten, die ausschließlich für Outbound-Akquise genutzt werden. In dieser Zeit gibt es folglich keine internen Meetings und keine Beantwortung von normalen E-Mails. Wie oft sollte ein One-to-One mit Verkäufern stattfinden? Idealerweise findet das strukturierte One-to-One jede Woche statt. Dadurch behältst du den Vertriebsrhythmus im Auge und kannst zudem zeitnah bei Problemen coachen. Was bedeutet der Begriff "Slipped Deals"? Als Slipped Deals bezeichnet man Verkaufschancen (Opportunities), deren Abschlussdatum überschritten wurde. Deshalb werden sie immer wieder in den nächsten Monat verschoben. Sie sind somit ein klares Warnsignal für fehlende Kundenbindung in deiner Sales Cadence. Wie du eine Sales Cadence in 5 Schritten in deinem Vertriebsteam einführst. Management-Buy-In sichern Kläre zunächst intern, dass dein Team geschützte Akquisezeiten braucht. Befreie dich und dein Team deshalb von unnötigen internen Meetings. Das Friday-Sheet einführen Implementiere anschließend ein einfaches Google Sheet. Lass jeden Verkäufer freitags verbindlich eintragen, welche Neukunden nächste Woche kontaktiert werden. Golden Hours blockieren Definiere darüber hinaus feste Zeiten im Wochenkalender als reine Akquisezeit. Diese Blöcke werden unter keinen Umständen für andere Termine hergegeben. One-to-Ones strukturieren Ersetze zudem den Flur-Smalltalk durch verbindliche Einzelgespräche. Analysiere hier hart an der Sache die Pipeline und coache individuelle Schwächen. Konsistent bleiben Halte diesen Rhythmus schließlich konsequent durch. Es dauert nämlich drei bis vier Wochen, bis sich Widerstände legen und das Schwungrad zu laufen beginnt. Hast du deine Sales Cadence schon im Griff? Oder versandet die Akquise in deinem Team folglich auch immer wieder im reaktiven Tagesgeschäft? Lass es mich wissen, kommentiere deshalb diesen Beitrag und teile ihn mit deinem Netzwerk. Gib alles!

This week's interview with the cofounders of SheWrites.com, Kamy Wicoff and Deborah Siegel-Acevedo, is especially touching for Brooke because these two women are where it all started. This week's interview is about why community matters as told through the histories and sensibilities of two community champions who started something that lit the literary world on fire in 2009. SheWrites back then was a little bit like Substack is today, but with small breakout groups and a lot of meet-ups happening in the real world. The feminist sensibility of SheWrites was what drew Brooke to the platform, and to Kamy and Deborah in those early days when she was a Senior and then Executive Editor at Seal Press—and this origin story is both a walk down memory lane and an inspiring episode on the enduring power of community. Kamy Wicoff is a writer, former publisher, and psychotherapist with a degree in social work. Kamy holds an MFA in Creative Nonfiction from Columbia and is the author of several books, including the novel Wishful Thinking and the nonfiction book I Do But I Don't: Why the Way We Marry Matters, and has contributed to multiple anthologies, most recently Feminists Reclaim Mentorship: An Anthology. Kamy is the cofounder of She Writes Press. She serves as a trustee on the board of the Brooklyn Public Library and lives with her husband and their four sons in Brooklyn. Deborah Siegel-Acevedo, PhD is a Visiting Scholar in Gender & Sexuality Studies at Northwestern University and the author of Sisterhood, Interrupted and co-editor of the literary anthology Only Child. She is a regular on Chicago's “live lit” storytelling stages. Deborah's essay “My Husband, the Reluctant Barista” just appeared this past October in the Modern Love column at The New York Times. Her op-eds and essays on gender, motherhood, family, feminism, and writing have appeared in Slate, The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Guardian, and elsewhere. She's a TEDx speaker, a longtime coach and champion of writers, and her coaching company, Girl Meets Voice, Inc., has supported hundreds of established and emerging writers. Together, they cofounded SheWrites.com in 2009. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
