In dieser Folge von „Sei deine eigene Bank – der Immobilien-Podcast" spreche ich darüber, warum nicht jeder mit Immobilien erfolgreich wird, obwohl Immobilien seit Jahrzehnten eines der stärksten und zuverlässigsten Werkzeuge zum Vermögensaufbau sind. Ich beschäftige mich jetzt seit über zehn Jahren intensiv mit Immobilien und bin insgesamt 16 Jahre in der Finanzbranche tätig. In dieser Zeit habe ich hunderte Fälle begleitet – eigene Deals, Sanierungen, Finanzierungen, Portfolioaufbau und Beratungen. Und genau diese Erfahrungen teile ich heute mit dir. Ich erkläre dir: Warum es drei Gruppen von Menschen gibt, wenn es um Immobilieninvestments geht Weshalb zwei dieser Gruppen ihre Ziele nie erreichen Welche typischen Fehler, Glaubenssätze und Ausreden die meisten ausbremsen Warum Wissen allein nichts bringt, wenn du nicht in die Umsetzung kommst Wie die riesige Informationsflut (Videos, Experten, Social Media) viele komplett verwirrt Wieso es nicht den einen perfekten Plan gibt – sondern nur deinen persönlichen Plan, der zu deiner Situation passt Wie du herausfindest, wo du stehst, wo du hinwillst und welche Strategie wirklich für dich funktioniert Warum Immobilien tatsächlich relativ einfach sind, wenn du die Spielregeln verstehst Ich spreche außerdem darüber, was ich bei den meisten Investoren sehe: Die meisten wollen passive Einnahmen, Cashflow, Altersabsicherung, Steuervorteile oder die Möglichkeit, früher in Rente zu gehen. Und die gute Nachricht ist: All das ist möglich – wenn du weißt, wie du vorgehst. Wenn du erfahren willst, wie du strukturiert, zeitsparend und mit einem erprobten System in den nächsten 2–5 Jahren ein starkes Immobilienportfolio aufbauen kannst – teilweise sogar mit wenig oder keinem Eigenkapital, sofern es zu deiner Situation passt – dann: ➡️ Melde dich zu einem meiner Workshops an ➡️ Schau auf meiner Website vorbei: https://investment-bauer.de/

In diesem Podcast spricht Frank Sundermann mit unserem KI-Agenten-Experten Alexander Ockl darüber, wie diese zu echten Machern in Unternehmen werden – weit über klassische Chatbots hinaus. Was macht einen KI-Agenten aus und wie entlasten sie Einkauf und Supply Chain. Wir zeigen unter anderem auf, wie KI-Agenten • Lieferanten automatisch bewerten und Risiken einschätzen, • Anfragen und Vergaben im Einkauf vorbereiten, • Lebensdauern von Fertigungswerkzeugen überwachen oder • Stammdaten und technische Zeichnungen intelligent zuordnen. Unser Fazit: Nicht mit dem riesigen KI-Projekt starten, sondern klein, konkret und praxisnah – mit Workshops, klar definierten Use Cases und Prototypen, die schnell Nutzen und Begeisterung stiften.

Find out all about Olga and her Greece trips at Smugtown MushroomsAC and Isaac welcome returning guest Olga Tzogas of Smugtown Mushrooms, calling in from California where she's teaching frequent classes, connecting with mushroom and herbal communities, and harvesting no-spray citrus for an east-coast fruit share. They discuss shifts in mushroom education interest, regional and international mushroom diversity tied to trees and rainfall, and favorite Greece finds like shaggy parasols and almond-scented wild Agaricus, plus simple grilling methods with olive oil, oregano, and lemon. Olga explains truffles—trees they associate with, how quickly they can be found with trained dogs, why prices are high, preservation challenges, and ways to use them. Olga shares details on her Greece trips in May and October (including truffle hunting, medicine making, hydrosols, dyes, and food), early bird timing, and mentions the upcoming New Moon Mycology Summit in September.00:00 Podcast Welcome00:33 Guest Intro and Teasers01:50 Greece Trip Announcement03:33 Olga in California06:55 Teaching on the Road08:27 Mushroom Trend Talk10:09 Foraging Origins and Fungi Magic11:48 California Mushroom Season14:00 Mushrooms Around the World18:49 Greece Mushroom Favorites22:23 Citrus Share and Bitters25:51 Peels Oxymels and Aronia31:04 Sea Buckthorn and Ojas36:16 Thorns Hawthorn and Cornelian Cherry37:52 Wild Fruit and Wood38:47 Truffles and Host Trees39:46 Cultivating Truffles Fast41:30 Training Truffle Dogs43:24 Truffle Prices and Shelf Life44:43 Preserving Truffle Aroma47:09 Cooking With Truffles50:13 Greece Foraging Trips56:28 Trip Dates and Lodging01:00:15 Workshops and Slow Travel01:07:20 Why Greece Feels Free01:12:28 New Moon Summit Update01:16:35 Early Bird and Giving Back01:18:39 Final Thanks and Farewell

A growing number of dentists are reconsidering PPO participation as costs rise and reimbursement falls. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt sits down with dental consultant Deborah Engelhart Nash to unpack why a reported 29% of surveyed dental practices stopped taking insurance in 2025, what fears keep dentists stuck, and how to transition the right way. You'll learn how to evaluate your patient mix, identify low-hanging fruit plans to drop first, communicate changes without blaming insurance, and redesign systems so your team can focus on people work instead of paperwork—listen to Episode 1016 of The Best Practices Show!Main TakeawaysA survey of dental marketers' client data reported that 29% of participating practices stopped taking insurance in 2025.Leaving insurance rarely fails when doctors do due diligence on patient concentration, capacity, and fee schedules before making changes.Doctors should prioritize dropping low-reimbursement plans and plans with low patient volume instead of quitting all plans at once.If a practice is booked out for months with in-network patients while losing money on those visits, reducing PPO participation can open capacity for higher-fee care.Successful transitions require team alignment, consistent messaging, and avoiding language that blames insurers or frames the decision as “about the money.”Practices should reframe insurance as an employer-provided allowance that helps offset care rather than something that determines the standard of care.Outsourcing insurance and billing work can help teams focus on patients, keep up with code changes, and improve claim outcomes.Snippets:00:00 Intro02:20 The survey source and the 29% statistic from 2025.03:15 Why some in-network hygiene visits can lose money.05:20 The “40% cut” example to explain PPO economics to teams.06:25 Why dentists don't go back once they leave insurance.07:10 The Anchorage example: when a single employer dominates the patient base.08:10 If you're booked out for months, cutting low-fee volume can create room.09:15 How umbrella plans expanded participation without doctors realizing it.10:10 Start with low-hanging fruit plans and lowest reimbursement fee schedules.12:05 The reminder: about 50% of Americans don't have dental insurance.13:20 How many active patients a solo doctor with two hygienists actually needs.15:15 Why the patient conversation should focus on quality of care, not fees.17:05 What callers ask first—and how to answer the insurance question.18:05 Predicting the future: hybrid models based on practice profile.20:10 “Roleplay” reframed as upskilling the team.23:05 Outsourcing insurance to specialists so teams do people work.24:00 72 insurance code changes in 2025 and why that matters.25:15 The biggest fear: upsetting the team, not the patients.30:55 The transition checklist: due diligence, team prep, timelines, and letters.33:00 Where to find Deborah and request the insurance letter template.Guest Bio/Guest ResourcesDebra Engelhardt-Nash has been in dentistry since 1985 as a consultant, trainer, author and speaker. She has presented workshops nationally and internationally for numerous associations and study clubs.

In this episode, we debrief the second annual Heatpunk Summit from the legendary Hashtub in Denver. We recap how builders from HVAC, hydronics, and home mining came together to advance hashrate heating—complete with live hardware demos, workshops, and a brutally constructive critique of our boiler setup from a pro hydronics engineer. We dig into galvanic corrosion gotchas, smarter system design, and why practical, hands-on education is the real unlock for bringing Bitcoin miners back into homes and businesses as useful heaters.We also break down the big development with Canaan's openness to support the home-mining and heat reuse market, what a “willing partner” ASIC manufacturer could mean for decentralization, and how small improvements—docs, APIs, and integrations—can catalyze a whole ecosystem. From workshop highlights (Home Assistant control, hydronics integration, open-source mining OS, and regulatory/insurance insights) to the industry's AI pivots and the investability of open source, this is a high-signal builder's recap with clear next steps and renewed momentum for hashrate heating.

Worum es in dieser Folge geht Immer wieder erreichen uns Rückmeldungen zum Podcast, aus Workshops, aus Vorträgen und aus dem Fireproof E Learning. Dabei zeigt sich ein klares Muster. Die meisten Zuschriften drehen sich nicht um Technik oder Taktik. Kaum jemand spricht über Fahrzeuge, Material oder Ausrückordnungen. Stattdessen geht es um Führung, um emotionale Spannungen im Team, um fehlende Wertschätzung, um Machtfragen und um zunehmende Erschöpfung im Einsatzdienst. Wenn Theorie plötzlich das eigene Erleben erklärt Viele Hörer berichten, dass theoretische Modelle aus dem Podcast plötzlich das eigene Erleben verständlich machen. Andere erzählen von Aha Momenten in Workshops. Gleichzeitig wird deutlich, wie schnell gute Erkenntnisse im Alltag wieder verschwinden, wenn keine verbindlichen Schritte folgen. Die eigentliche Herausforderung liegt nicht im Wissen, sondern in der Umsetzung. Führung wird erwartet, aber selten entwickelt Ein Thema taucht besonders häufig auf: Führung. Sie wird vorausgesetzt, sie wird erwartet, aber sie wird selten systematisch weiterentwickelt. Gerade in freiwilligen Strukturen entstehen dadurch Spannungen, die langfristig zu Frust und Erschöpfung führen können. Es geht nicht um Randthemen Dieses Echo ist kein Zufall und kein Einzelfall. Es zeigt, dass wir nicht über Nebenschauplätze sprechen. Wir sprechen über Kultur. Kultur entsteht jeden Tag neu durch unser Verhalten, durch Entscheidungen und durch den Umgang miteinander. Handlungsfähigkeit beginnt mit Perspektivwechsel Mentale Stabilität im Einsatzdienst entsteht nicht nur durch individuelle Stärke. Sie entsteht auch durch Perspektivwechsel, durch ehrliches Zuhören und durch Organisationen, die bereit sind, sich selbst zu reflektieren. Genau darum geht es in dieser Folge des Einsatzleben Podcasts.

Wie hängen Brust-, Schulter- und Trizepsaktivität mit deinen Zügen an der Wand zusammen?

In this episode, we welcome back Dr. Priyadarshini "Priya" Basu of Washington State University to discuss two major topics shaping the future of beekeeping: the upcoming COLOSS North America meeting and the evolving science of honey bee nutrition. COLOSS (Prevention of Colony Losses) is an international nonprofit network of more than 2,000 honey bee researchers across 113 countries. For the first time, a multi–task force North American meeting will be held June 6–12 at Washington State University in Pullman. The event will bring together researchers, beekeepers, veterinarians, inspectors, and growers to discuss nutrition, pathogens, pesticides, climate change, and landscape impacts on honey bee health. Workshops, tours, and hands-on sessions will provide practical learning opportunities for attendees at all levels. Priya also shares updates from her lab's nutrition research, including pollen landscape mapping across North America, micronutrient analysis, supplemental forage strategies, and how nutrition interacts with stressors like pesticides and disease. The discussion covers practical considerations for trapping and storing pollen, differences between pollen substitutes and supplements, winter feeding strategies, and how nutrition influences brood production and colony resilience. This episode connects cutting-edge research directly to real-world beekeeping decisions — from hobbyists to commercial operations.

Many new health coaches struggle with how to stand out, build trust, and confidently begin working with clients, especially in the early stages of their certification.   On today's episode, we're joined by Theresa Kasper, an Integrative Health Practitioner and former special education teacher, who shares how she's successfully blended her background in education with functional health coaching to create meaningful impact in just over a year.   Theresa opens up about her personal healing journey with autoimmune symptoms, chronic fatigue, and nutrient deficiencies, and how discovering functional lab testing became the catalyst for both her recovery and her new career path.   We discuss how she uses educational group workshops to break down overwhelm, reduce hesitation, and build powerful "like, know, and trust" within her community.   Theresa also shares valuable insight for newer IHPs navigating imposter syndrome, comparison, and social media pressure.   If you want to learn how to leverage workshops to grow your coaching practice, build trust quickly, and serve clients in a way that feels aligned and sustainable, tune in to today's Integrative #HealthCoachSuccess episode 427.   Enjoy the show, and let us know what you think!   - - -   Listen or Watch At:  IHP.Coach/427   - - - Dr. Cabral's Book, The Rain Barrel Effect: https://amzn.to/2H0W7Ge - - - Become an Integrative Health Practitioner: https://integrativehealthpractitioner.org

WATCH THIS ON YOUTUBE TOO!You organize the panels. You write the statements. You celebrate every woman around you, and somewhere in the middle of all of it, you forget to let any of it land on you. This episode is not for the role you play. It is for you.EPISODE DESCRIPTIONWhy Women's History Month can feel like one more thing to perform instead of something to actually feelHow the identity shift into motherhood and leadership quietly puts parts of yourself on a shelf you haven't opened in yearsWhat it really means to reclaim — not dramatically, but honestly — a version of yourself that went dormantWhy restoration is less about self-care rituals and more about reconnecting with what has been depleting youHow rising can look like a quiet internal choice, not a grand gestureWhat it means to be making women's history right now, in this moment, in your real lifeTUNE IN TO LEARNIdentify one strength, dream, or version of yourself you've quietly been setting asideDistinguish between performing celebration and actually receiving itChoose one restorative practice that is unambiguously yours — not for your family or your teamUse a single word as your compass for the month of MarchPractice a guided reflective moment designed to help you feel grounded in your own risingTAKEAWAY MESSAGE If you are the woman behind Women's History Month - organizing, nominating, championing - it makes sense that you have poured out more than you have taken in. That pattern has a name: it is the cost of being capable, and it accumulates. Reclaiming yourself does not require blowing up your life. It starts with remembering her, and deciding she is not done yet. Listen in, reflect gently, and remember… you are always free to be mindful.REFERENCED LINKSWORK WITH VANESSA (NJ MOMS): Ready to go deeper?

Many dentists track annual patient value (APV) but don't use it to make a clear decision about what kind of practice they want to build. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt talks with Miranda Beason, ACT's co-host and education leader, about what APV reveals about your business model, why it impacts stress and schedule design, and how to calculate it using your last 12 months of collections and active patient count.You'll learn what low versus high APV typically looks like in day-to-day operations, what changes when you start improving it, and the first step to take this week to decide whether your current model matches your vision—listen to Episode 1015 of The Best Practices Show!Main TakeawaysAPV is calculated by dividing the last 12 months of collections by your active patient count.APV is not just a number; it reflects the business model your practice is operating within.A low APV often correlates with a high-volume, low-margin practice that feels constantly busy and stressed.A higher APV allows a practice to rely on fewer patient visits while improving collections and protecting time.Write-offs and insurance contractual adjustments are major drivers of a lower APV and can limit profitability.Improving APV typically requires greater consistency in diagnosis, a strong periodontal protocol, and intentional scheduling strategy.The first step is awareness: calculate your APV and decide if it aligns with the type of practice you want to build.Snippets00:00 Metric Mondays Intro01:24 Meet Miranda and The Big Question02:58 What Annual Patient Value Means05:11 How to Calculate APV06:51 Low APV Warning Signs09:01 High APV Benefits and Mindset Shift13:38 Real World Results and Freedom15:23 What to Do This Week17:27 Resources and Final Wrap UpGuest Bio/Guest ResourcesMiranda Beeson has over 25 years of clinical dental hygiene, front office, practice administration, and speaking experience.

Have you ever felt like your team is “getting along” but no one is saying what they really think? That's artificial harmony, and it quietly creates frustration, drifting standards, and eventual blowups. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt brings back coach Miranda Beason to explain the difference between toxic positivity and productive conflict, why unresolved issues always become a crisis, and how leaders can build a culture where real problems get discussed calmly and respectfully. To learn how to find the sweet spot on the conflict continuum and create healthier conversations in your practice, listen to Episode 1014 of The Best Practices Show!Main TakeawaysArtificial harmony looks peaceful on the surface, but unresolved issues build underneath and erode trust over time.Conflict is not the same as confrontation; it is differing perceptions or approaches that can be discussed respectfully.Avoiding conflict often leads to intensity later, which triggers defensiveness and makes resolution harder.Productive conflict strengthens decisions by stress-testing ideas and increasing team buy-in, even when not everyone “wins.”Leaders must be intentional about creating psychological safety and trust before a team can debate issues constructively.Structured meeting tools and regular check-ins reduce emotional flooding and prevent small issues from becoming crises.Leaders should resist the “writing reflex” and allow space for discussion before jumping to correction or closing the loop.Snippets00:00 Artificial Harmony Intro01:25 Meet Miranda Beason04:50 Defining Artificial Harmony09:52 Conflict Continuum Framework12:10 Toxic Positivity Signs18:43 Miranda Meeting Story22:25 Building Productive Conflict25:44 Control Your Response27:06 24 Hour Rule27:48 Phones Kill The Pause29:11 Healthy Team Conflict32:18 Styles And Trust34:09 Check In Case Study37:20 Leaders Build Frameworks39:50 User Manuals For Teams41:03 Final Takeaways45:28 Tools And Resources47:42 Closing EncouragementGuest Bio/Guest ResourcesMiranda Beeson has over 25 years of clinical dental hygiene, front office, practice administration, and speaking experience.

In a business world awash with endless content, few voices cut through the noise like Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. In this episode, we sit down with the co-founders of Military Creator Con, James Van Prooyen and Marah Lago, for a candid conversation about the untapped entrepreneurial potential of America's military veterans and their families. The three dive into the values, mindset, and experiences that position veterans as pioneering creator capitalists, explore the origin and purpose of Military Creator Con, and unpack the unique blend of community, grit, and creativity shaping this movement. You're listening to Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. We are the real dialogue podcast for people with a different mind. So get your mind in a different place, and hey ho, let's go. Veterans as America's Untapped Entrepreneurial Force One of the central themes in this conversation is the notion that military veterans embody many of the qualities that make great entrepreneurs. All three agree that the ability to problem-solve under pressure, think outside the box, and adopt a daring, “pirate mentality” are forged through military service as much as through business challenges. James shares firsthand how being tasked with mission-critical communication and IT projects in remote environments taught him to adapt quickly, improvise, and persist; skills invaluable to starting and growing any venture. Marah, coming from a creative civilian background, adds that seeing military spouses and families approach challenges with ingenuity and resilience gave her new appreciation for the community-oriented nature of military life. Both agree that, contrary to common stereotypes, the military is not merely an environment of rigid order-following. Instead, it is a crucible for innovation and resourcefulness, making veterans natural candidates for building businesses or leading creative projects. Building a Community of Military Creators Military Creator Con was born out of a desire to unite veterans, active duty, and military-connected families who were blazing trails in art, digital media, entrepreneurship, and beyond. James and Marah  recognized a gap for military creators and entrepreneurs: while the discipline and camaraderie of military service fostered community, transitioning out of uniform often led to a sense of isolation in the civilian creative or business worlds. They envisioned MCC as a gathering to break down those silos, offering a space to learn, share ideas, and collaborate freely. The event's spirit is deliberately inclusive, welcoming not only veterans but also their spouses, families, and anyone connected to military life. Attendees range from podcasters and artists to business founders and technologists. Workshops and keynote talks are designed to equip participants with practical skills in storytelling, marketing, AI, and social impact — delivering on the promise to empower military-connected visionaries to realize their entrepreneurial dreams while staying true to their roots. Lessons in Grit, Creativity, and Community Throughout the episode, the trio reflects on what sets this community apart. There is an acknowledgment that veterans, and the military world in general, are often filled with what Lochhead calls “misfits”: people who don't always fit into conventional molds and are thus drawn to forging new paths. This trait, they argue, is the beating heart of entrepreneurship and creator culture. MCC aims to harness this shared sense of adventure, service, and innovation, nurturing it through mentorship, new technology, and peer support. Stories about overcoming challenges, learning on the fly, and even embracing some chaos, like a good laugh about rationed whiskey or unscheduled road trips, underscore the theme that creativity thrives on adaptability and boldness. By tapping into these lived experiences, Military Creator Con is more than just an event; it's a movement rallying a diverse community to shape the narrative of what it means to create, lead, and make an impact after service. To hear more from James and Marah about the MCC, download and listen to this episode.  Bio James Van Prooyen and Marah Lago are the founders of Military Creator Con (MCC).  James Van Prooyen, a U.S. Air Force veteran, launched MCC in 2020 as a way to bring military-connected creators, such as podcasters, filmmakers, and entrepreneurs, together to share their experiences and grow their impact. Marah Lago, his wife and co-founder, serves as the CEO of MCC and has been instrumental in expanding the event into a national gathering focused on community, mentorship, and creative empowerment. The conference has grown significantly since its inception, with the 2026 edition scheduled for April 16–18, 2026, in Arlington, Texas.

With no official details revealed, speculation runs high. Could we see colorful, lower-cost MacBooks powered by A-series chips? M5 Pro and Max MacBook Pros? Updated iPads? The panel debates whether Apple may stage a staggered release week or unveil everything in a single coordinated announcement. The discussion shifts to Vision Pro, where rumors suggest Apple could demonstrate immersive Formula 1 experiences just days before the 2026 F1 season begins.

We often talk about shadow as something dark - anger, jealousy, shame, the parts of us that feel too messy or socially unacceptable to show.But there is also another kind of shadow that rarely gets the same attention, and that's the qualities we admire in others to the point of putting them on pedestal, secretly envying them, or feeling like we're somehow not quite enough to ever become that.In this episode I'm speaking about the golden shadow - the brilliance, confidence, creativity, erotic power, or leadership we've disowned in ourselves and projected onto mentors, lovers, teachers, or public figures, and how easy it becomes to feel worthy simply by being near them instead of allowing ourselves to become that big.Who do you admire a little too much, and what part of you is afraid to take up that same space?If this resonates, feel free to share it with someone who might need permission to stop shrinking.Rina is a shibari artist, tantric bodyworker, former Dominatrix, and extreme sports athlete, learner of ancient traditions and intrepid explorer of consciousness. She guides people to their core, creating safe spaces for healing and self-discovery.This podcast is for courageous seekers like her, exploring meaning and spiritual illumination in the midst of life's intensity.

Is positive psychology real science… or just another version of “just think positive” that ignores real stress?In this episode of the Free to Be Mindful Podcast, Vanessa De Jesus Guzman sits down with positive psychology expert Diane Lang to explore what the research actually says about gratitude, resilience, mindset, and positive aging.If you are raising kids, juggling work, navigating midlife changes, or feeling stretched thin, you may have wondered whether practices like gratitude really make a difference. Is it toxic positivity? Or is there measurable science behind it?This conversation breaks down:The difference between positive psychology and forced positivityWhy we need three positive emotions to balance one negativeHow gratitude rewires the brain over timeThe role belief systems play in midlife transitions and agingWhy lifestyle and mindset influence longevity more than we thinkPositive psychology does not deny grief, anxiety, or depression. It works alongside therapy, medication, and traditional treatment to build emotional resilience and long-term wellbeing.For moms navigating stress, perimenopause, identity shifts, and the invisible load of family life, this episode offers practical, research-backed habits that are realistic, free, and sustainable.THREE KEY TAKEAWAYS1. Positive psychology is evidence-based and practical. It strengthens resilience without dismissing pain. It is about building emotional capacity, not pretending everything is fine.2. Gratitude and kindness shift your brain over time. Consistent daily practices improve sleep, mood, and stress recovery by retraining your negativity bias.3. Positive aging starts with mindset. Genetics play a role, but lifestyle, belief systems, relationships, and daily habits have significant influence over how we age physically and emotionally.Connect with Diane: https://dianelang.org/ If this episode challenged your thinking or shifted your perspective, share it with another mom who may need it.Because the more good we train our brains to notice, the more grounded we become.In a world where you are free to be anything, you are always free to be mindful.Send a textSupport the show120 COPING SKILLShttps://www.freetobemindful.com/podcast-120copingskillsGET THE MUSE HEADBAND AT A DISCOUNT!https://choosemuse.com/freetobemindfulUse this link to get 15% off your total when you purchase the amazing brain sensing headband that tells you when you're in a meditative state and guides you to improve your practice.LET'S STAY CONNECTED:

Unser heutiger Gast hat früh lernen müssen, was es heißt, mit Rückschlägen zu leben und daran zu wachsen. Er verlor früh beide Eltern, überlebte im Alter von 13 Jahren einen Starkstromunfall nur knapp und lebt seitdem ohne Beine und ohne rechten Arm. Später folgte die Diagnose eines unheilbaren Lymphdrüsenkrebses. Doch auch diese Herausforderung hat er überlebt. Heute ist er Unternehmer, Speaker und einer der bekanntesten Inklusionsgestalter Deutschlands. Mit den Potenzial Pionieren und dem Inklusionsfit Institut begleitet er Unternehmen, Kommunen und Organisationen, die Inklusion nicht nur als Haltung verstehen wollen, sondern als strategisches und wirtschaftliches Handlungsfeld. Sein Weg führte vom internationalen Rollstuhlbasketball bis an die Spitze der Rhine River Rhinos, die er heute als Geschäftsführer leitet. Seine Botschaft ist klar: Inklusion funktioniert, wenn wir bereit sind, uns ehrlich zu begegnen: ohne Zwang, ohne Mitleid, sondern mit gegenseitigem Respekt und der Bereitschaft, Verantwortung zu übernehmen. MT Seit mehr als acht Jahren beschäftigen wir uns in diesem Podcast mit der Frage, wie Arbeit den Menschen stärkt, statt ihn zu schwächen. In über 500 Episoden mit fast 700 Persönlichkeiten haben wir darüber gesprochen, was sich verändert hat und was sich weiter ändern muss. Was können wir von Menschen lernen, die durch extreme Erfahrungen eine ganz andere Perspektive auf Leistung, Gesundheit und Sinn im Berufsleben mitbringen? Wie gelingt echte Inklusion, jenseits von Symbolik, mit klaren Konzepten und betriebswirtschaftlicher Relevanz? Und was braucht es, damit Unternehmen Inklusion nicht als Pflichtaufgabe sehen, sondern als Chance? Fest steht: Für die Lösung unserer aktuellen Herausforderungen brauchen wir neue Impulse. Wir suchen weiter nach Methoden, Vorbildern, Erfahrungen, Tools und Ideen, die uns dem Kern von New Work näher bringen. Darüber hinaus beschäftigt uns von Anfang an die Frage, ob wirklich alle Menschen das finden und leben können, was sie im Innersten wirklich wirklich wollen. Ihr seid bei On the Way to New Work: heute mit Mirko Korder. Und ein besonderer Dank geht an David Hillmer vom Podcast Unboxing New Work, der uns zusammengebracht hat.

Most business owners don't have a workshop problem.They have a workflow problem.You can host a “good” workshop — get compliments, hear how helpful it was, feel proud of your content — and still make zero sales.In this bonus episode, I'm breaking down the 3 biggest mistakes business owners make when it comes to live events and why their workshops feel full of effort but empty of revenue.You'll learn:• The critical difference between a good workshop and a profitable one • Why planning content before conversions kills sales • How overteaching sabotages your pitch • The silent mistake that costs you the most money after the event ends • What it actually takes to create a workshop that sells, converts, and compoundsA profitable workshop doesn't happen by accident.It's built with structure, strategy, and intention.If you're ready to stop winging your live events and finally build one that drives real revenue, join me inside:Workshop Workflows That Work

Biblical Counseling Africa: Equipping the Church for Gospel-Centered Care in South Africa and BeyondRecorded on the road at the Biblical Counseling Coalition Global Summit, this Speak the Truth podcast episode features interviews with Kyle Johnston and Jane Kratz from Cape Town, South Africa, about their ministry contexts and the growth of Biblical Counseling Africa. Jane shares how her husband's death in 2012 led her to pursue a theologically rich approach to grief and loss, moving from prior psychology studies to biblical counseling training through ABC's Equipped to Counsel material and later studying at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, with additional church experience in Texas before returning to South Africa. Kyle, an ordained minister at Gracefield Church in Fish Hoek, explains how pastoral ministry exposed a gap between confident pulpit preaching and applying Scripture in complex, conversational counseling situations; this led him to training through Wayne Mack's curriculum in South Africa and a master's degree at The Master's University in Los Angeles (2012), while continuing to prioritize pastoral care and counseling in church life.They discuss why they remain committed to serving in Africa despite opportunities elsewhere, noting both the significant needs in Cape Town and South Africa and the mission field created by migration from other African nations. They describe cultural observations, including hospitality and the value of contextual ministry shaped by South Africa's historical experience, including navigating multicultural ministry after apartheid.Kyle outlines how Biblical Counseling Africa began in part to make CCEF training more accessible and affordable in their context and to expand beyond South Africa through online courses. The organization's aim is to equip local churches across Africa to provide wise, loving, gospel-centered pastoral care that restores Christ to counseling. They describe a three-level approach: (1) grassroots seminars, talks, and workshops (including using ABC conference resources with local case studies and courses such as Jane's nine-week grief care course); (2) training such as ABC's Equipped to Counsel offered during COVID and in-person; and (3) advanced CCEF courses, with growing enrollment. Future focus includes helping pastors develop a church-wide culture of care, vulnerability, and mutual ministry beyond sermon-centered expectations.They explain that Biblical Counseling Africa is a nonprofit and invite listeners to support the work through prayer, financial giving, and volunteering. They emphasize the need for resources to sustain operations, relieve volunteer load, and provide scholarships for students from poorer African contexts. They express gratitude for support from American partners including CCEF, ABC, BCC, and others, noting that courses are offered at about a quarter of the normal cost, and direct listeners to biblicalcounsellingafrica.com for more information and contact.00:00 Welcome to Speak the Truth (Podcast Intro)01:09 Meet Jane: From Grief & Loss to Biblical Counseling02:30 Texas Culture Shock & Accent Stories03:39 Meet Kyle: Pastoral Ministry Path into Counseling06:12 Why Stay & Serve in Africa?

Hey Friends~  This episode is part 2 of the series “When Communication is Hard.”    Today we're talking about childhood apraxia of speech and other motor speech disorders—what they are, and why speech can be so effort-filled for some kids. If your child knows what they want to say but can't consistently get the words out, this episode will help you understand what's really going on beneath the surface.  We'll also talk about why “just practice” often backfires and what kinds of support actually help at home.

This episode is about something no one glamorizes when running a pet business: the messy middle. This can often look like confusion, second-guessing, restructuring, and uncomfortable change. If you've ever questioned your pricing, outgrown clients, rewritten your offers, or wondered whether you're cut out for this at all – this episode is for you. Social media shows the butterflies. It rarely shows the goo. But that dissolving stage? That's where real transformation happens. If your business feels like it's falling apart right now, take this as your reminder: you're not behind, broken, or incapable. You might just be in the goo stage – and that's exactly where becoming begins.
