2021/08/10

Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FASD) is a permanent brain disability that is largely undiagnosed, especially in children. It is a spectrum disorder in that it includes a range of linked conditions, both physical and mental. Marcia Grondahl, speaking on FASD, informs us that this disability is 2 ½ times more prevalent than autism and one in twenty kids suffer from it. Many of those kids are also ADD or ADHD.

2021/08/03

How do you cut through a noisy world not just as an expert, but as a thought leader? A thought leader is one who has the ability to make an impact and is known for something. If you are an artist or creative, it may be difficult to define that one thing you are known for as if you’re like me, you keep creating. But there is usually an umbrella that will connect all the projects and areas of your business and life. In this show, we will look at different creatives and inventors and define the main

5 Questions About Marriage we Want Our Kids to Ask

Power of After Show ·

2021/07/27

You may wonder why this article on questions about marriage is here as most of my listeners and audience are at the halftime of life. The reason is that listeners are concerned about their kids and grandkids. Marriage is one of the most important of their life decisions. Saying “I Do” on your wedding day turns into “I Don’t” more often than not and causes havoc, pain and separation. There are no guarantees that any relationship will last, but there are some safeguards. Kids probably won’t ask these

How Your Core Values can affect Your Happiness

2021/07/20

How long has it been since you’ve defined your core values? Your core values are the principles that are at the root of everything you do, both personally and professionally. When circumstances change, your core values should be consistent and provide the stability that will sustain you through not only difficult times, but the good times as well. Core values are not set in stone. They can shift and change through time, but it is helpful to consistently define them and keep them top-of-mind. We will

2021/07/13

Your inner critic is alive and well and is often called the Imposter Syndrome, a term coined in the 1970’s. The inner critic is a critical inner voice that is judgmental, critical and demeaning. The term is used often in psychology or psychotherapy. When the inner critic takes over, it can be debilitating with self-doubt and fear to move forward. Kris Kelso, (https://kriskelso.com certified leadership coach, shares how his inner critic threatened to take over even when writing his book, Overcoming

A Hybrid World: Diversify Your Income

A hybrid world includes the word hybrid, which is something that is made by combining two different elements. It’s a mixture. If you have a hybrid citrus tree, you may have oranges and lemons growing out of the same tree, though on different branches. They’ve been grafted together. Most hybrid versions work extremely well, especially in the right conditions. Different branches and types of of business can flow out of the same root source--which is you.

At the halftime of life, officially over the age of 40, you may start to wonder, When is enough enough? Many equate having enough mostly with finances and the ability to live comfortably throughout life, and especially after retirement. But there are other parts of life where we can ask the same question. Because when one area is off-balance, that area has a way of affecting other areas. In this show we’ll approach multiple areas in answering the question When is enough enough? When you have a dream

The Impact of Forgiving Yourself First

Power of After Show ·

2021/06/22

Another word for forgiving yourself is showing compassion to yourself. There is much talk about showing compassion and grace to others with pleas for money, help and time. But if we don’t practice forgiving ourselves first, we have a lot less to give to others especially emotionally. The lack of forgiving yourself can result in anger, bitterness and depression which may seem puzzling as they don’t seem to be directly linked back to forgiveness. But with our society’s focus on perfectionism and

Getting Back Into a Regular Routine

2021/06/08

When thinking of a regular routine, some feel it’s boring, unimaginative and uninteresting. But I beg to differ. A regular routine can bring freedom and joy of productivity if you vary your regular routine and implement small changes. The boundaries and guidelines of a regular routine, along with flexibility has the power to change your output, your enjoyment of life and even relationships. When routines are broken because of circumstances, whether health, disaster, relationship or other reason,

Do you ever find yourself grappling to come up with interesting conversation topics, whether at a social event, with a spouse or even with a colleague? Many times our conversation topics end up falling into shallow chit-chat or rants about unsolved problems. When growing older, those topics are more about health issues and aches and pains. Greg and Deb share some favorite resources to spark our conversation topics with each other and others. The population of those 65 and older is growing rapidly as

Novelty of Thinking for Yourself in a World of Clones

Power of After Show ·

2021/05/25

Thinking for yourself has become an anomality in a world of clones. A clone is an exact replica, a copy. My premise in approaching this subject is that in many ways, we have become a copy-cat or cookie-cutter world. Social media has done a good job on selling us on a certain look, style, format and even business model. The term expert has been diluted and now the term thought leader is moving quickly to achieve the same fate. The terms have been diluted with no differentiation. There is nothing

Who’s to say you can’t have a vibrant life and even develop a profitable career through your golden years?

Why Some Finish Projects and Some Don't: Ways to Finish

2021/05/11

There’s actually no big secret as to the ability to finish projects. Though size, budget, interest and organization are usually factors that contribute to the process. However, there are other components that may be involved as well. It’s interesting that the La Sagrada Familia*, Antoni Gaudi’s monumental Catholic Church in Barcelona, has been a work in progress since 1882. Changing the design, world events and even unexpected destruction can interrupt even the best-laid plans, such as what happened

To encourage each other is one of the greatest gifts you can give to a friend, colleague or spouse. It is something missing from our society as competition, revenge, and even jealousy rips through our relationships. As you encourage each other, you inspire others to reach their potential. The principles Greg and I discuss in the podcast show apply not only to spousal relationships, but to friends and colleagues. As spouses, we have found that an attitude of gratefulness and flexibility have helped

Intellectual property is a work or invention that is the result of creativity. It can be a manuscript, an art design, a piece of music, or even content in a book or an online course. With your intellectual property, you can apply for a patent, copyright or trademark. Each has its unique characteristics. Intellectual property can be extremely valuable to an entrepreneur as it can be used multiple ways and even create residual income. I briefly expand on the use of copyrights and trademarks as they

A SaaS Business is subscription as a service. SaaS is how many online companies are now formatting their business products. The principle is not new. Even while growing up, I signed up to receive a special monthly surprise box with makeup samples. This was an excellent example of a subscription. I paid a monthly fee and received a product. I could cancel at any time, but it created a recurring revenue model. Now we see subscription offers for most everything we see online, from Microsoft, to

Most realize life goals change and shift through time. After going through school and even when getting your first job, it’s hard to define your ultimate life goals as they will usually morph through the years.

However, core values should be consistent through all the changes. Your core values are the unnegotiable elements such as

How Mind Games Will Hold You Back from Your Potential

Mind Games come in all shapes and sizes. They are ways we can easily tear ourselves down while lifting up the imaginary success of others. As the most powerful computer in the world, your mind is capable of sending constant messages to either encourage or discourage you. (see: Self-Sabotage) Through the power of the repetitive process, a human brain’s production can’t be emphasized enough. Messaging can be positive or negative and many times we have a choice.
