"I i worked ueberroth stupid bras. So yeah that was like and then try to make the guy was like. Oh i can't wearing this. There's less complicated going onto guideline. That's very complicated. And but i've been having trouble finding abroa- that like i love. The look of an unlined bra. I think it's super sexy. And like the way that. I i like my clothes to fit and feel i think i would enjoy i wouldn't even mind nipping but it just doesn't work. Yeah with the way that. I like to look and where my clothes and i wished that i felt more confident about my small boobs and i didn't need a push up or But like you said we all have our thing right whole thing. Yeah reminded of the conversation. I had with helen roster on the podcast where i was like. Oh i think like i only look. I only feel feminine. And i only feel confident when i'm wearing a v neck shirt a t shirt and she was like. Oh gosh i think the only t shirts that look good or like you know the croon extra. We're all weird. I remember that. Yeah yeah no one cares but we all have our thing. We're like we're convinced. I always like to say that. Like the most part of my body and most self conscious about is my wrists. I remember hearing you guys talk about that. And i thought that way about my fingers in my hands. It's weird who cares. I love rings. And i love wearing lots of rings but i have these kinds of chubby fingers and i see these. My sister has like these before these. Like i don't have either now. Whatever i have like. What am i like. I like the people wanted people looking at my rest. I mean i've definitely like streisand affected them to the point. Where like if someone who listen to me talk about them. As much as i talked about them saw me they would only be looking at my wrists but like we're all have never noticed anyone snow. I've made this anyone's either. It's we do notice other complement gorgeous. Hands people probably think weirdo. But i like. I do a lot of cocktail recipes. You cocktail photography. And i like pictures of people holding drinks. I just don't like pictures of me. Holding drinks fingers pictures. It was honestly like such a production. When i got engaged and i wanted to like put up a picture and i was like my hands like no one cares but like all you see. Are those long like witch fingers the witch little like their lanky and grandmom baby sausage fingers which is fine and i love them but yeah instagram has ruined like all perception of reality or whatever. I think that's part of what my the whole idea behind. My podcast to motherhood has been so instagram. My on instagram. But i'm not..

"I have eight paren- my current size and like okay. Donna last pair. I have to do laundry right. Of course it's a handy tool. But i got rid of all my other underwear. I'm obsessed with these underwear. It is all that i will wear. They are so comfortable they are just soft and they they hold tight enough but not too tight. Yeah they the cotton shot. I got it so i could. I'll never wear other unless. I'm trying to be sexy or something. Yeah i don't. I don't know about that i mean for me there's special underwear for that and also i feel like they ripped the first time you do anything in them so yeah sexy underwear it's trash underwear like i'm gonna buy this. Yeah yeah my husband and they're going to get ripped and then i'm gonna throw them away and and that's it i. I wonder like so. Let's talk about these reviews that you're reading because we always talk about like you know always really wary of someone who does recommend some amazon stuff like sometimes you know. There's always been those stories that are like all these amazon reviews fake or they're like auto bought generated river. What were the reviews that you saw specifically like what were people saying about them. That made you feel like okay. They were looking for what i was looking for because when i read reviews especially because it's always from a stranger you're like i don't know you don't know what you wanted like you know. There is no one size fits all for literally any products. So there's always key rings that. I'm looking for when i'm like okay. I wanna buy some things. So i'm hearing what you wanted. But was there like a line in a review from like a fellow. Mom that made you think like this is gonna work for me. No it was more. What one thing that. I love about amazon is that people can upload pictures so there were very brave women who are like uploading pictures of themselves in these underwear and i saw i saw women who had a body type similar and there were pregnant women who sh- who shared it with their pregnancy. So one thing. I i love the amazon. Is you can amazon's evil fine but you can search reviews yup and i like search for my size like people who were my size and i search my weight and i search terms for body type so as more of that. It was more and you know. They're not fake reviews when a woman who's like my size and the picture you know it's not. It's not one of those amazon. Fake photoshop like giant but tiny waist pictures. Just a real woman in these underwear you can trust that. That's a real review. Obviously but you know people were talking about the comfort and how it they didn't dig in and for me. I really liked that. They high up. Because i i am highways jeans i have been waiting for. It was cool. And i will be right after it's cool and i like my underwear to be at the same line as my waistband. Otherwise then you get another weird like like bump. We're going to be read up to the belly. Button all in line parallel. But i do i kind of i over read Reviews some have partially for my job. Right so i do a lot of commerce writing and You don't always test out products right if it's if it's an seo piece in you're basing your little right up on reviews and i have gotten very good at spotting fake reviews right but you can't just.

"Am. You're am amazing. No i mean like. I always like to think that in the nineties especially if you were like a little kid and i was you know in second or third grade in the early nineties and that was kind of a became trendy and like everyone was testing their kids. And you're very lucky to be a girl. A young young girls were so overlooked in the nineties. I think so too. Because i didn't have the h. Part i had the. I was never hyperactive. I was just like could not focus. I was so smart but my grades were terrible. Like i was always talking in class and i think my parents were like but also you know how much of that is just like. I am a kid and this is my personality versus like. Let's you know and i think the medication did help. But of course the medication helped. I take prescribed speed. I literally have like a magic. We have like a magic pill that helps us do stuff. And and that's all well and good. But i never even learned as an adult had a like function without it. So i'm i'm very dependent on and i. I wonder you know if. I was kind of going in blindly as an adult with like a clean slate. How they could determine a new diagnosis like just wonder what a doctor who didn't know that i have had you know a thirty. Plus year history.

"You just got like a diagnosis a late in life. adhd diagnosis. what was that lake. Yes so i got diagnosed right before my thirty six th birthday so that was in twenty i i told you know math so whatever it was. I'm florida nine. Twenty eight now. So i don't know how that works but okay this. Hd video camera with a smoothing settings. So yeah i. I was almost thirty six and i had been. I joked for most of my adult life. Add before it was adhd add. So i'd be like oh man you mighty one of the very first design articles i ever wrote for. Aol's now defunct will it was probably defunct aol's defunct Shelter pop it was a blog and it was called. The headline was my design. Add and it was just about how like obsessively changing things in my house. All the time. it's funny. Because recently i was like looking at my wall. And i was like. I wonder if there's a disease where you just have to change stuff in your house all the time and my husband's like fucking kidding me like exact self-awareness is kind of a thing so i joked about it and i found the first year of marriage to be incredibly stressful. Being interesting married to someone who like wanted to know my plan for the night and the weekend in the week and like i was. I suppose to have a plan for like a tuesday night. And i my husband and i got into some fights looking back i think were very much triggered by me having adhd and him not understanding it me. Not knowing i had it. And i remember reading an article in the atlantic around that time it was called. Adhd is different for women. And i read this article and it was like. Oh my god that sounds like me. It's so relatable. And then i thought like oh you know i don't really have hd that would be too easy too easy. If i could just take a pill. And like i'm actually not like i'm actually not a flawed person. I'm not lazy asshole. Hd was like that would be. That'd be too easy so seek diagnosis. And then there was this whole series of unfortunate events that happened in two thousand eighteen which involved me and calendars and a vacation. A babysitter and dogs and i read. I write all about it. Which i'll tell you about minute And i was like crying my bathroom while my son was watching daniel tiger because i had just like fucked up a whole week so badly i was like what is wrong with me and then i remember this article and i went back and read it and i was like as kinder to myself when i read it. I think. holy shit. that's me. I said to my husband. And that's you and so. I made a few different doctors and.

No one gives us but well unfortunately after a certain time nobody gives a shit if you have a baby.

I mean obviously like you can't talk about the experience of being a mother without talking about kids and having kids the shit we do for our kids but so much of that is it. It is tied up in our identities as women as partners as professionals and this these last eighteen months have been so i'd say disproportionate disproportionately on others. Yeah and and even like.

Afghanistan is it's re- echelon it's it's retreat area in a war with india. It has been friendly. The isi the military have been friendly with the taliban. Today's events in afghanistan can do nothing but heightened tensions between the two nuclear nations of pakistan and india correct. Absolutely they are already if you read a pakistani and indian media presence. That's what you see and you know. We work on on projecting into the future within weeks or months if the international community led by the united states led by this administration. Don't do anything significant to address what happened and frankly set for the first time. I don't know what to advise because mistakes are so large that i don't know how we're gonna handle but if we don't address the situation between india and pakistan we are having to something much larger and bigger than any conflict in the middle

It could prevent you from auditioning for something you know. Fear has attacked me and situations big and small one thing lately. That has really helped me to kind of again. It's not overcoming concrete but press into it is i asked myself this one question and it really kind of changes my mindset. I asked myself. What's the best thing that can happen if i go for this because so often i would say what's the worst thing that can happen and some people like for them. That's enough of a motivator but for me that freaks me out. Because i'm a i have liked to fail on order thing that can happen. Is i fail. I humiliate myself embarrassed myself. And and and i.

"I feel in this season that got his really called me to be very present with my children. Something that i've not been. We're doing this right now. My kids are in school. So if i'm doing something professionally i'm making. I'm trying to make sure i'm trying to set boundaries and doing it when my kids are in school i've really kind of cleared my plate. I'm only putting things on my plate that i'm passionate about a set of my kids fitting into my career like anything that i choose to do. I want it to fit into being a mom. I okay But we go through and so often women are scared. men are scared to pump. The brakes are to take a step back. A society doesn't see there's any value in it right be. We have a hard time seeing valuated ourselves and then see often times we are. We are intimidated. That if we step back or we step away we can't get back in. I can't get back in the workforce but that's the thing like we have to give ourselves permission to branch out trying to we have to give ourselves permission. A knowing that my worth is intended this gig. My worth is not in being a mom worth as not in being a broadcaster. My word is not being a teacher. My worth and identity are separate from those things which are going to shift find out who you are outside of what you do and then no. You're true word. And then give yourself permission to branch out different seasons of life. Different chapters of vocation just like. I'm very appreciative of my my former life. The things that i was able to do vocationally. Okay so i. I celebrate those. But i'm excited about these new season. A chapters of vocation. That god has called me to you being a mom.

"And then when that shifted. I was like who am i. Who am i outside of that. And so really just set me on this path and then You know i came to another kind of another moment during the pandemic. I knew that my time at abc was ending. This was last year. And i and my husband. And i came down to south carolina because my sister lives here. And we thought we'd come down here for two weeks and god was like. Yeah i want you to stay. We're like for what my sister was here. But it was one of those moments where we just had a piece that this was what we were supposed to do. And it's been really awesome to. it's scary. That's the thing like when you're called to do something. There's always an element i think of fear and we think for scared to do something now. That's our intuition. Oftentimes calling us off christie. So like a don't do that. But i we were really scared to stay down here. We didn't know what was on the other side. But i think that's what like if you truly are living a life of faith you have to step out in faith not knowing what's on the other side and that's when god shows up and just shows so now i'm totally gone from abc. And you know. i'm just i got. Just give me this permission slip like you can do things in different seasons and got halls as to do different things in different seasons. We don't we shouldn't get too attached to that one thing that we think that were created to do because when that thing changes we are if our purpose and identity are all wrapped up in that we're not gonna know who we are so for me. It's been this journey of finding out. Who am i. Outside of what i do because who i am isn't going to change or what i do will it will change so i'm trying new things..

"That's in your gifts that in your sweet spot where you're gonna make a huge impact or he might be calling you to be faithful right now today in that job that you hate to that boss. That drives you crazy. Be a light in a dark space. See calling can look different for every person every season of life because it's so specific and personal to you and the god that created you to you and the god that loves you so very much. It's not one thing it's multiple things. It's not permanent. It can be seasonal or temporary where he calls you into the space and out of that space and into the season and out of that season it can also be big or small and everything in between you know. I think we get caught up in what our career going to be. What our purposes. But i think if we look at scripture we can boil it down to something really simple simple to understand maybe difficult to do at the end of the day. If you're a believer you a really called to become like jesus. And i know that sounds simple and i know it can feel like oh you have heard that before but rather than getting overwhelmed with what your career paths going to be. What if we focused on that second definition. We just said god. What are you calling me to today. What are you calling me to in this season. What are you calling me to. In terms of the course of action and how to show up and be jesus to my family to my work to my neighborhood to this world. I think that's one of those things that is not only easier to lean into an understand as you seek. God's will for your life but it's also a whole lot more exciting than one career. Path that you've been put on this earth to do if you find the cree love that's awesome but if you're feeling overwhelmed that maybe you've.

"I'm so excited because today we are talking about finding your calling. Which is the perfect topic to talk about when it comes to faith and personal development and then i get sit down with my good friend. She is a television journalist. She's a podcast and author of the new book called out paula farris and she has some incredible wisdom for us. When it comes to finding your calling but first let's talk about what calling even means now. This word calling is one of those things that we throw around like. You might be hanging out with your friends and you do something really well and they say jokingly you've missed your calling. This is what you're supposed to do with your life or maybe you're in a job that you hate and you're thinking i just wanna find my calling. I don't know what it is. But i know it's not this. See we throw this word around but almost always we use it by one particular. Definition your profession. What you do for work now. I did some research on this word calling in preparation for today's episode and i identified that there are actually two definitions of the word calling. The first definition is what we're talking about right. Now your vocation your profession. This is what you've chosen to do for work in your life but there's also a second definition of calling and this definition is a strong inner impulse to a particular course of action especially when accompanied by an influence of divine direction. Now you and i as believers might say that is the conviction and the calling of god now often. We talk about calling in relation to our work in only our work. But here's the problem with this number one. It's overwhelming like what is my one calling. I've been put on this earth to do. What if i miss it. What if i don't figure it out until it's too late. What if. I've missed the education that i need to do the calling. I'm supposed to do. This feels really overwhelming. It's also singular when we use it in this way like there is one calling one profession. One vocation fills really big like. Oh my gosh. is this one big idea. My one purpose on this earth it also feels permanent because it's just one thing it lasts forever. This is my calling and a better figure out what it is..

"How we can work together to solve that problem. That was the part of the script were you were asking for and sure enough. I ask for the order and it closed and the next one i ask for the order it closed and things went better than there. And so you know the two things are asking for help and sticking to the script why did i ever just stop asking it just because i thought it was so competent out so good at this late to do that.

Earlier at he said that when the question he asked always himself his partners is. What did we learn today after every sales call and he said that actually that he would consider it a failure if they got the sale but they haven't learned anything so it's really interesting kind of point of view you know so well actually is a segue to something else. Just want to ask you. Which isn't that that we we've spoken before. Which is point of view having a point of view. And i think it's something that people talk about in positioning and standing at him and and being different differentiating yourself. From your from your vantage. I is having this distinct point of view. But it's not so easy and it's one of these things like yeah. That sounds like a really good thing to do. But do i actually do so. Can we talk about that for a few minutes. Sure absolutely salem what do you think of view is distinct point of view. What do i think of you is so you're not looking for something that nobody has ever said before. I'll tell ya early in my career. I read a book called and this referral by bob. Berg and i thought it was really in book i loved it and then a year later i read how to win friends and influence people. You know like the most popular book ever written. And as i was reading us why this is really familiar and got bob. Birds book and i opened up a table. contents was almost the same. Like you'd rewritten. How to win friends and influence equal in his own work. The business like this is genius. Why this testing so the point isn't to write something with no one has ever said but it's right something that no one else is going to set because you're gonna save things in a way that's uniquely you this based on your experience and your point of view and your and you want to say something that other people are not going to say or the the other people could say because they live the life that you live in have experiences in writing from a point of view means figuring out. What is the you know. It's true testing that in the marketplace. A little bit like we're not just gonna throw crazy theories out there. We need to have some experience some research and then articulating it in a way that you think it makes it easy for people to respond or for people to me. That's what point. Can you give me an example. Because this well i've got if you go on the homepage of my website. The call to action there is to take a business growth assessment and the business growth assessment tells you where you are in the life cycle of a business and so are you a big business. Are you a adolescent are you. You know a an adult or a seniors and the idea of the business growth. Life cycle is not new. By the way. That i articulate that you know which some of which we've talked about earlier about you know getting that baby stage than on a lesson is really about raising prices specialization measurement and getting out of the driver's seat like those things. I've never heard anyone else with that together. In exactly that way but because of the experiences i had identified those were things that happened over and over again that i saw were consistent. Michael aunts were able to grow and so just putting into that framework talking about a business growth life cycle people understand the idea behind a visit for five. And then what are those stages. Hey lay that out. And then what are the things to happen to get from one stage to another and by doing that. When people take that assessment. I land on a page and say. Here's what's going on your business and here's what you need to do this and people write me back like oh my gosh. That's exactly. Are you in my office looking over my shoulder. I don't have to be. I know you're not that unique. Every every that's an example of trying to make make my experience more understandable brother Right interesting yeah. You're taking your experience translating that in any way people can understand it and that is your point of view. That's your perspective. That's right right over and over again. I'll relate different issues that people are having back to one of these problems writings out earlier when we were talking about raising prices. I talked about quiet engagement on having engagement problem born falling through their homer. Well that's because you're not charging right. So i can connect a lot of problems. People are having back to one back to this framework the certain wet and so that helps me returns to that. Point of view over and over again and re reinforces for people. All brad does not talking about. Okay lemme again switch gears because when ask you a bash resources. That have helped you the way books podcasts videos people anything what has been influence on on you. You know obviously was an early influence. I think the book that has had more impact. More recently is getting naked by patrick. Joanie i'm not a fan of the parable book genre but getting naked really helped crystallize them things for me about consultant out. Describe what the premises getting naked talks about different conversations that we need to have with our clients when we're consultant and what the job of a consultant is and so one specific. One is to enter the danger. That whenever you're talking to a group of businesspeople there's always some topics that they're all dancing around and use the consultant. Need to be willing to say. Hey i noticed you guys aren't talking about li-jen is that because we just just perfect you've got weeds and everybody starts looking down their shoes right. Oh it's not because you're jenness purpose. So why are we not talking about weeding jen. You have to be willing to walk into those dangerous places. That's what they're paying worse. Insult that's the that's the contract. He has four other distinctions there. But that's kind of a the one that that is the key. Yeah i love it. And i have a posted. Have lots of post. Its with with notes to myself on on my computer screen from me here. No passwords thankfully is say no more often and another is actually from From blair ends which is say what you're thinking and i i really don't like it should be so obvious you know. Maybe it is of people but but Yeah and and he's talking about typically in the context of a sales conversation but but in any engagement. I think it's best. Just be bay straight up with people and this really say what you're thinking. So yeah i'm all for that so i agree one hundred percent an as someone who can be very once what i learned is to say what i'm thinking but sometimes introducing affirmative question or sometimes introduce it in the former by something that i've seen with other clients. Xyz right brad isn't quite so blunt again. My job is to say things in a way that you're about an maximum oneness.

"farris" Discussed on Marketing for Consultants

"Hello and welcome to marketing for consultants. Today i'm here with my friend. Brad farris who is the principal advisor at anchor advisors and brad guides business owners through the pitfalls joys of growing their business. He is a speaker author. He's passionate about business and helping business owners find better ways to do things. Make more money and enjoy life for so brad. Thank you so much for being with me today on our second attempt at recording. Thank though okay. So i want to ask you about is just a little bit of your backstory because you are a successful consultant in your own reis and you also help people who are consultants and business owners and peak like that so was just talk first about your own story and how you became to where you are. I started life as an engineer. And i love being an engineer. I love solving problems. But i was frustrated because i could build exactly the thing that the marketing team wanted me to bill and it might not be successful. And so that made me think. Well he's marching is obviously. Don't know what they're doing. So i gotta go figure out the margaret teams jobs so that i can do my job. That's how engineers thank. We're like that. And so i went over there and follow them around and realized i had to learn accounting in order to understand marketing is. That's the language they're speaking. And and i became kind of a nervous folk business or the business guys. Vote nerve ending on what side of that wall iran. And so when the company i was working for started doing some acquisitions they put me on the team. To be the guy that spokeswoman earth and so actually spent about ten years buying businesses from nurse for billion which was a great job loved. That job got run a few of the company's after we bought him. But i don't think that i noticed one thing. Is that mostly entrepreneurs. Were selling their business because he had reached some sort of ceiling. They just didn't know what the next thing was for them to do to keep growing the business or they just exhausted themselves they. They reached the point where they know how to to change their roles to make it possible for them to a beer business and so they were selling it because they can reach the end of the runway. So what happened was i noticed that after. They sold their businesses. They weren't really that happy about it. They really enjoy the post sale life and so once. I got to a certain point where i had done a ton of traveling and i'd run a couple of businesses and i really wanted to come home and not travel so much at thought about those business owners who sold wanted to help them to have the tools they need to grow their business to the next level without having a salad civilian His i made a lot of money for the air but it wasn't always a great deal the entrepreneur and so i i of want to switch side of the table one and okay cool. Let's talk about that plateau that they hit the ceiling. What was it typically. So there's a couple of things the first flato. The people hit is usually around million between a million dollars the hustle and the grind that that went into growing their business kind of runs out at a certain point. Like you just can't hustle anymore. You just run out of hours. The spend doing the business development during the buds. Getting all this stuff wearing is and so the business owner themself has to change their role. Change there that concept of what they're doing and get themselves out of the service delivery part of his and that happens at various places but in service businesses in happens to be ran a million to somewhere there if the business owner can pull themselves out of that service delivering role and become the ceo. They usually can grow up to about around fifty to seventy five people where there's another inflection. Point where now instead of meeting the team you need to start reading the leadership team and you're not a layer of distance the get the work and that also is a mindset. Shift that business owners feet okay. So we have these two inflection points and so you're starting to see patterns in what you're looking at in the eastern patterns in the people who were selling to your billionaire boss. Yes right and so what happened next. So i like. I said i which sides the table started working for the owners and initially i was. I was looking for entrepreneurs who wanted to sell seller business. And i would help them to kind of get a better value for business. Use some work in the business to straighten it out to make their pigment balance sheet. Look more like the the fires morning get them a higher multiple and so i would go in and fire bunch of problematic employees. Get rid of uncle. Betty and cousin steve increase prices. Get them a little better terms requesting their money better and basically shoring up there even stating balanced and once. We did that jose okay. Now you're ready to sell what's the market and time after time they would say brad. This is a great business. Would i sell it kinda fixed all the problems that i have. Let's just keep going over head you get past the problem of being tied into the percentage of the sale. I stopped looking for those deals. I basically said i'm not gonna make deals anymore. I'm gonna talk to people who are selling business. I just look for better business. And so just changed the way i offered the serfs same service different different intel cool. That's fascinating on an so and there's some very simple things like you're reducing headcount salary on cost your increasing prices something. I think that you know. I think that most entrepreneurs who i speak with most consultants in i think almost everybody can increase surprises. I think it's just. I think he you take that advice. Just apply car plans to everybody listening to this and say you should probably increase your prices right now right now. It's funny you say that. I'm not sure. There's a client that i've ever worked with. I didn't eat the prices and they always tell me that they can't do it. They lose a ton of business that you know he would say now and then they try it and sure enough. That first person doesn't say no and now they're mad because they look at all these other clients like. Hey you guys. A ribbon me off. Even though that was the price that they swore that everybody wanted to pay. But as soon as you start raising your prices kind of like hey i get more for this magnet more for the next one and you will get more knows but if you do the math it only takes a few yeses to make up for those nodes and the other thing. This is the funny part. We're human business owners. Were telling me. I'm so busy brad. I don't have an hour in the gate of pig. I can't get my business development and suggest raising prices and they think i'm crazy like why wouldn't you rather have eight clients. Is that a ten coins and make the same amount of money they then. You wouldn't be busy. You'd have time for the business development. He always solves so many problems. For as reagan prices we also end up with more engaged clients clients. Who have a bigger need because when you give more money for it so that that raising prices thing is that is a huge lever in in helping people to get over that growth. Yeah let's dig into that a bit more. Because i think that is something that people have. Great fear is raising prices. Like we're talking now. Pretty much exclusively in professional services organic creative industry. There's this huge fear of raising prices. Because you your existing clients are going to get pissed off with you. You're you're gonna get less new clients coming on but in reality there are some people who are potential clients looking at your pricing saying. I'm not going to go with them because of price to load. I don't have to do the job properly when we could a high price on our services but we communicate to people is. We have high expectations for the results. That we're gonna cheat and you should have high expectations for the resolve and so by charging more money. We get better france because we get clients that want that big result who are willing to invest more time and energy nordic debt it is. You're having wise. That aren't showing up for meetings so they aren't doing their homework or you know they aren't taking your advice. Those are all signs that you're not charging enough because the more you charge the more we will take your advice more to follow through on her apart from pricing. Is there anything else you know in terms of business model like would you look at productized services or custom services recurring billing type models. Is there anything else there. That's always go to just like you would always increase basis so i work with a lotta creative services firms.

"NewsRadio K LBJ with host Jeff Farris. Jeff is ready for your calls or text messages at 51283605 90. Hey, Welcome back, everybody Hot Summer day and it's uh, We've got the solstice coming up in a couple of days. So longest number of daylight hours. And then it's downhill from there. Fortunately, it just doesn't fall off plate. We kind of It was a little bit of sunlight every day, as opposed to losing hours quickly. Those in the Pacific Northwest may get 18 hours of sunshine. This coming Monday. But by about 30 days from now they'll be lucky to kit somewhere around 13. So it depends on where you are on the planet is to what our hours of light are. But We're going to start having those wonderful evening. Hopefully they'll cool off. The weather report is not looking all that promising in terms of heat indexes and humidity. But that's uh, that's Texas. And that's what we deal with. Out. Speaking of those heat indexes, you know, you should be careful out. It gets hot and a lot of us sometimes forget. You know, we could We consider ourselves indestructible yet? Uh, That goes away. As you get older. You start waking up in the morning and feeling those aches and pains. But you do need to be careful out in your garden. It's really easy to overheat yourself or overstress yourself. Just a quick personal observation. Um I really hate being slathered up with, uh, Whether it's bug spray or sun tan lotion. It doesn't matter. It's already going to be hot and sweaty out. In the garden. I don't want more of that. So I've started, uh, getting clothing that has super duper UV protection. And long sleeves and surprisingly cooler and comfortable. So don't think that if you're going out in the garden, you gotta be be in shorts and a tank top just to stay cool. That's not really true. And it's kind of nice to be able to just throw on. Uh Shirt that keeps you cool and keeps the bugs off you and and protects you from the sun all at once. You should make sure you have a good hat. It sounds kind of silly, but it's really important that son is going to cook your head and that Gonna cook your head question. Is, um Really going to hit you up. So Invest in the clothing to be out in the garden. It's worth it. It'll keep you cooler. It'll keep you safer. Um, it will. Make your day in this heat more enjoyable. Keep well hydrated. Work early or work late. Working at two o'clock out in the full sun. That to me that seems somewhat abusive. That's like punishment, not in contend the garden. And understand your plants. This is kind of important. No, A lot of folks will get up in the morning. They look at their plants and they look good. And then they were run around, and it's like five in the afternoon. Your plant. Looks like it melted. It looks like a Dali painting or something. Um The first thing we reach for is water. It may not be necessary. Put your finger in the dirt. If the soil is moist. The plant is simply reacting to the heat of the day, and you'll see that as the evening rolls on, and it cools off, and we get a little shade. We get a little blaster Exxon on it. Those plants will perk back up. Don't assume that a wilted plant is in need of water. A plant can wilt from too much water. There's no doubt that the heat is horrid. But don't make that immediate assumption. Put your fingers in the soil. If there is moisture in the soil have three inches down. You feel Wet soil. Damp soil that wrung out sponge. That plant probably has 20 of water. It's simply reacting. To the extremes in temperatures. So make sure it needs water before you provide it with water. You can do just as much damage over watering a plant as you can buy under watering the plant. Looking at a plant at five o'clock is never a good charge of its need for water. Look, Let me take you outside and pin you to a place where you're in full sun all day long..

He's president, CEO of Alliance Defending Freedom, Michael, It's been a while. How are you? I am great, my friend Mark. It's good to talk to. You haven't seen in the grocery store lately. While you're not looking in the desert section anyway, Uh, I want you to tell us about this case. You know, we're getting a little snippets of it. And why you father was so important to your organization defended this teacher. Glad to do so can across is a long time Elementary pe teacher here in Leesburg, Virginia. And he, uh, objects to propose policy that the school boards considering On transgender issues and which would include, among other things, the speech code requiring him to use opposite gender pronouns for students. And he was willing to adopt to that by using whatever first name of childhood, uh want to use and Try to, you know, go along with his religious beliefs and do as best he could to accommodate the policy Schools Award. I didn't like him speaking out at a school board meeting, one minute speech last week of school board meeting objective, the policy, urging them not to adopt it. And there was five emails sent to the school officials from parents from his school complaining about his speech. So the school their suits suspended him. Um, So let's stop one second, So we're speaking. And an open public school board meeting where they're eliciting comments. He's a teacher, but he's also a citizen. And five other citizens. Basically are objecting. And basically, if they're writing the school board they want to punish for speaking is his views. Correct. Correct. That's right. Alright, next, So that's that's the school officials. Decided to go with what we believe is essentially a heckler's veto. And it was also of course, you know the policy the school district wanted to adopt in, so we sued because we think that this Violation of free speech rights was so egregious, uh, so apparent that it needed to be done Now we we have defended a number of educators who have Been fired for refusing to play comply with these kinds of policy. We think that is a free speech violation. We want one of those cases recently in the sixth Circuit Court of Appeals for a college professor on essentially the same issue, But that was on the on the substance, not just speaking out of the school board meeting, but The merits of the policy itself. But you know Loudon County couldn't help themselves. They couldn't wait until there was an actual policy in place. They decided by our suspend him preemptively.

"Sadly, the Farris ease didn't know the difference. The story that we've read today comes in the context of several stories about the criticism of Jesus. Once again, the Harrises were complaining that Jesus wasn't towing their line. Several weeks ago, we read a story in which the Farris he's criticized Jesus because he claimed that he not only had the authority to heal physical visible ailments of the body. That he also had the rightful spiritually authority to hell. What could not be seen the godly authority to forgive sins. He was then criticized for hanging out with the wrong kind of people. Tax collectors, sinners, the unrighteous. Next week. We're gonna read the story that tells us that the religious leaders criticized him for disrespecting the Sabbath. And in the story that we've read today, Jesus is criticized for not fasting and observing pious Jewish religious practices. And so we see that on that long road to Jesus's crucifixion, the first step Is a word of criticism. Road to Jesuscrucifixion starts with badgering criticism. In Mark, Chapter two. Farris. He's first approached him with a rebuke. Why do John's disciples and the disciples of the Fair seas fast but your disciples do not fast? Now the Farris he's didn't like John the Baptist, but they liked Jesus less, and they were not above making judgmental comparisons between Jesus and his own eccentric cousin. And even though John lived the life of a wandering wild man and profit We may infer that both John himself and his followers were meticulous in keeping the traditions of the ceremonial law like fasting. Although regular weekly fasting was not a part of the law of Moses. By the first century, Such fasting had become an important part.

Wild goose boostered and fake pecker pluck and got the birds then stuff the smallest bird into the next smallest birds cavity and so on until you have one neutron star of bird meet paraphrased from seventeenth century cookbook and you thought her duck in was a new thing. My name's moxy. And this is your brain on facts. Two days after this episode drops. It is thanksgiving in the united states and the supporters at patriot. Dot com slash. Your brain on facts voted to go. Turkey talk today. So let's go through the myths and misconceptions by working our way through a painting an odd choice as this is an audio only medium. Certainly luckily we don't have to pick just one painting. Most paintings depicting the first thanksgiving in giant air quotes of sixteen twenty. One contain the same things about of puritan settlers dressed in austere black clothing. With bright metal buckles gathered around a table laden with food. Maybe the family patriarch is offering a prayer and a small group of native americans can be seen in the background. Maybe one or two in the foreground. If i were to show you jennie. Augusta browns combs. The first thanksgiving or the first thanksgiving by louise jerome farris painted within a year of each other in the early twentieth century. Incidentally you'd say oh. Yeah that was in my history book which year all of them probably. That's how we've been taught to think of historical thanksgiving's but we're not school kids anymore. So it's time to update that image paintings of the first thanksgiving referred to that feast in sixteen twenty one in plymouth massachusetts. What we actually know about the feast. Concretely is very limited. It mostly comes from a single letter. Written by a communist named edward winslow two hundred and twenty years later in eighteen forty one. His letter was published in chronicles. Of the pilgrim fathers by boston writer and publisher alexander young and it was young. Who called the gathering. The first thanksgiving even though the word thanksgiving doesn't appear anywhere in winslow's letter that feast wouldn't have been thanksgiving to the pilgrims. Puritans did observe thanksgiving days after fortunate events like a good harvest. The were religious observances. People spent the day in church often in silent prayer and they fasted rather than feasted. It's almost the polar opposite of the way we celebrate thanksgiving today. So that day wasn't thanksgiving and it wasn't even the first for a few reasons for starters. It didn't happen a second time. Let alone annually. So it can hardly be said to be the first of anything it would take more than two hundred years for an autumn. Feast referred to as thanksgiving too widely proliferate second. It wasn't the first meal shared by europeans and native americans in the new world. A reasonable drive from my home here in. Virginia is the berkeley plantation where a thanksgiving feast was held this one by the europeans alone. Three dozen settlers arrived in the chesapeake bay in sixteen nineteen on a ship. Captain by a man who had survived the winter of sixteen o nine in the jamestown colony a winter referred to as the starving time after a rough two and a half months at sea and another week on inland waterways. They finally arrived at berkeley hundred later called berkeley plantation on december fourth. They disembarked assembled a meal. From what shifts rations. They still had ham and wasters probably and said prayers of thanksgiving. It was declared that their arrival must be yearly and perpetually kept holy as a day of thanksgiving to almighty god end so it was for two whole years in march of sixteen twenty two. The poyton having noticed that the settlers weren't leaving and in fact were expanding their territory and kept trying to convert and civilize them attacked berkeley and other settlements killing over three hundred fair playboys if you ask historians in maine they'll tell you the first. Such meal happened not in sixteen twenty one in massachusetts but in sixteen. O seven in papa main. The popham colony barely lasted a year. Thanks to a fire in their storehouse during the particularly harsh winter and miscalculations like staying in a four right on the shore rather than moving inland where the forest could provide a windbreak.

How To Have Difficult Conversations

"So. You're sitting in a movie theater. This is a little scenario, the people sitting behind you or yacking it up i. want you to answer this. Honestly, what would you really do say excuse me could you please stop? You would would. Before Anybody here would smolder and say nothing you say nothing I'd probably tough it out you tough it out. Yeah. Okay. Who would turn around and give a dirty look Boy Bold with silent. Okay, here's another question you want to invite friends over for dinner. They asked if they can bring their kids along. And you really want this to be adults only and they have your you laughing because you've done that. They're right there. How did tell this frontier? Stand up over their. Had to visit a New Year's Eve dinner party. and. had to tell this friend right here. Okay. That her three toddler boys could join us. Because that's exactly what I was going to say three toddler boys angels. But we're we're very dear friends. So we can say that she can say, oh no, no, no. I don't I don't think I have a babysitter the twelve hour should I bring my kids and put him in the basement or just not? But let me help you find a babysitter. Very good. I think she's bringing her three kids. Chicago she calls you and what do I do, and this is the first heard about. It's adult evening my husband will die if you bring your three kids. So it took you twenty four hours to get the courage. To tell him okay how many of you would cave in and say, of course, bring them along? Three toddler boys your New Year's Eve Party? Yeah. One more thing we were all spending a fortune because we're having lobsters that we'd had phone in and we had waiters there and everyone else had babysitters because there would have been hundred kids if everyone wanted one of their kids they're. Also just kind of started. Was this big a deal. I even really heard about it. Through the common out there like Oh my gosh. I still don't have or what am I going to do was more like a conversation. I have a lot of options still going I was just kinda throwing it out I never really envisioned bringing my kids there. And I never ever done that never. A pattern of this. Okay. Now. What these scenarios show us is how a lot of people you were just saying how a lot of people she would have. Let the children come. You're saying, took you twenty four hours to get up the courage to say don't bring your kids So she didn't know it was that big a deal. She didn't know that taking you twenty four hours to figure out how to say it. And you had a babysitter. Okay. So what we're talking about is how we attend to avoid confrontation, they can range from big things like saying I want a divorce. It might be tough. Anybody had to do that. Yes. Ma'am was that tough? Yes. It was a little hard to do how long did you think about how you were GonNa say it. Probably three months three months, three months. So those are those are tough issues with met that. So today we're GONNA learn how specifically to stop avoiding and how to have some of those difficult conversations because I know for a lot of you. It's like me you don't. You don't know the words to say you don't know how to even begin to say it this is. Jan Farris and she's a psychologist who works with women who have an illness I had this illness at one time I the disease to please it really is like a sickness. I don't think it's in our genes, but I think it's the way women have been raised in this country to be pleasers the major symptom it's often incredibly difficult even painful to say the word know. How many of you have that as an issue women? Really. Oh, really some of you too old to have this disease. It's still hard for me sometimes, but it's gotten a lot better. But we're GonNa talk about difficult conversations. I know for the past ten years. Jan. Farris has led countless workshops just like this on the goal to teach women to speak up for themselves especially when the conversation gets tough. Basically, a difficult conversation is any conversation that you don't want to have you feel anxious about having and that you really sort of avoided.

Greatest Hits: Well-traveled Bodies

"In the winter of nineteen seventy six the six million dollar man. Tv show was filming in a haunted house in Long Beach. California when a crew member went to move a garish looking dummy to a different spot. The dummies arm broke off at the elbow. It was then that the crew member noticed the end of a human bone. Sticking out of the truncated limb. This wasn't a mannequin. This was elmer mccurdy a career criminal who died sixty five years earlier in Oklahoma. My Name's Moxy. And this is your brain on facts as forensic science slash true crime slash weird history buff of the first order. I almost didn't include mccurdy in today's episode of well-traveled corpses. Because his story makes all of these lists. But you know me. I like to be thorough. Elmer mccurdy was born January. First eighteen eighty two an unwed mother and adopted by his uncle and aunt. The first twenty years of his life were fairly unremarkable until a string of personal losses led him to say screw it. I'm ago Robson. Trains a brief stint in the army. Seen him trained to use nitroglycerine for demolition and he decided to blend the two careers the trouble was he tended to be heavy handed with the explosives once costing his gang ninety percent of the money in a safe he blew their remaining ten percent that they did get was in coins. That were melted together. Mccurdy's final robbery took place on October. Fourth Nineteen Eleven Niro Keys Oklahoma. When mccurdy and his men mistakenly stopped a passenger train instead of the one carrying four hundred thousand dollars that they were after the men were only able to steal about forty six dollars from the mail clerk some whiskey a pistol and the train conductors. Watch a newspaper account of the robbery called it quote. One of the smallest in the history of train robbery even still a two thousand dollar bounty was put on mccurdy and someone gave him up in the wee hours of October seventh. Apostasy of sheriff's tracked mccurdy to a Hacia using bloodhounds. Gunfire was exchanged for over an hour and in the end. Mccurdy was shot in the chest and killed mccurdy. Spotty was subsequently taken to the Johnson funeral home in Husk Oklahoma where it went on claimed Joseph Johnson the owner and undertaker embalmed body with an arsenic based preservative and stored it in the back of the funeral home refusing to bury the body or release it until he had been paid for his services. Johnson then decided if he was going to get any money out of this situation. He'd have to be more proactive. He dressed the corpse up in street. Clothes place to rifle and mccurdy's hands and stood up in the corner of the funeral home for a nickel apiece. Visitors could see the bandit who wouldn't give up. Mccurdy became a popular attraction at the funeral home and also drew the attention of carnival. Promoters though Johnson refused numerous offers to buy the mummified body in nineteen sixteen a man claiming to be elmer mccurdy's long lost brother got permission from the sheriff to take custody of the body and ship it to San Francisco for a proper burial. The following day Johnson released the body to this man and an accomplice who then put it on a train bound for Arkansas City Kansas. Then were in fact. James and Charles Patterson owners of the Great Patterson Carnival shows where mccurdy's corpse would be featured until nineteen twenty two when Paterson sold his operation to Louis. Sonny Sonny use mccurdy's corpse in his Traveling Museum of crime show which featured wax replicas famous outlaws such as Bill Doolan and Jesse James in Nineteen Twenty eight. The corpse was part of the official sideshow that accompanied the Trans American footrace. In thirty three it was acquired for a time. By director Duane Esper- to promote his exploitation film narcotic with an exclamation point in a very William Castle style move. The corpse was placed in the lobby of the theater as a dead dope. Fiend by this time some twenty two years after death mccurdy's body had become fide. The skin was hard and the body had shriveled to the size of a child. Esperer claims that this deterioration was proof of the danger of drunks. Mccurdy's corpse would bounce between warehouses and movie sets for the next four decades damage from mishandling. Meant that the corpse was no longer all that lifelike which is how it found. Its Way to the left in the dark funhouse at the Pike in Long Beach. After it was discovered that he wasn't a mannequin mccurdy was sent to the La Coroner by this time. The body was essentially petrified and had been covered in wax and layers of paint. It weighed about fifty pounds or twenty three kilos and was sixty three inches or one hundred sixty centimeters tall. Some hair was still visible on the sides. And back of the head but mccurdy's ears big toes and many of his fingers. Were missing of all the clues that lead the coroner and accompanying historians to determine the mummy's identity. The most interesting was found in the courteous mouth. It had nothing to do with. His teeth was a nineteen twenty. Four penny and ticket stops to the one forty West Pike side show and the Louis Sunny Museum of crime. The discovery made national headlines and an actual distant relative came forward to claim mccurdy's body which was buried on April twenty second nineteen seventy seven in the boot hill section of the summit new cemetery in Guthrie Oklahoma next to the actual body of outlaw. Bill Doolan two feet of concrete were poured on top of the coffin to ensure that mccurdy's rambling days for over mccurdy. Hardly the only outlaw turned famous. Mummy take the case of one. Hazel Farris born in Kentucky in eighteen eighty orphaned as a child and later married to a man with whom she drank heavily and fought loudly. Her history is morphed into folklore but by all accounts on August Sixth Nineteen Five. The couple had an argument over Paris's desire to buy a new hat. If you've been in a relationship for any length of time you know that wasn't really what they were fighting about. The two came to blows and Farris ended up shooting. Her husband who died on the living room floor. Neighbors heard the gunshots summoned police. The situation did not improve upon their arrival because fairus shot and killed them to a passing. Deputy Sheriff heard. The Commotion Gained Entry. To the House and tried to restrain Farris during the scuffle. The deputy tripped on Ferris's husband's body accidentally firing his gun and shooting off. One of her fingers there is eventually broke free and fatally shot the deputy as well so she shot the sheriff and she did shoot the deputy with five murders under her belt and a five hundred dollar reward for her capture which I couldn't put into modern figures because the inflation calculators don't go back that far fairus fled to Bessemer Alabama to try to begin a new life. One version of her story has her posing as schoolmarm another as her working as a prostitute. Both agree that she drank excessively she took up with a new man and when they became engaged fairus confided in. Him who she really was. He immediately gave her up to police on December twentieth. Nineteen O six fairly certain. She wouldn't emerge victorious from a second shootout. He sulfurous committed suicide by drinking combination of Whiskey fuel. Oil and Arsenic Ferris's body was taken to Adams vermillion furniture which also sold caskets and as such functioned as the local funeral parlour. No one came forward to claim her body which was strangely mummifying rather than decomposing. There is speculation that it's because of the chemicals Ferris drink but I don't put a great deal of stock by that regardless of the reason the corpse had longevity and a certain renown Adams began charging curious visitors ten cents to see the notorious outlaw. After a time Ferris's body hit the road. When atoms loaned the corpse to various exhibitors including his brother and Tuscaloosa Palace of wonders sideshow operator Captain Harvey Leabeau's well and OC Brooks who featured the well preserved remains in his traveling show for forty years when he died brooks left Hazel to a nephew on the condition that any money raised from displaying her be donated to charity. As the story goes Brooks's nephew displayed. Ferris's mummy to raise money to build churches in Tennessee.

You have no idea how intimidating it is to interview someone who's made a career out of breaking people without those people know we met. He's breaking them. Chris is a phenomenal negotiator. And he tells us that we're in three to seven negotiations every single day. So where do you begin in negotiation? And is this something that everyone's born to do also before we dig into this episode. I want to let you know that Chris Voss will be live with us on Maith at the G. less next event series also joining us is going to be summit faculty favorite and Harvard's difficult conversations expert. Sheila Heen so stick around to the end of the episode to find out more about that upcoming event but without further ado. Here's my conversation with Chris. Hello everyone welcome to the G. L. S. podcast and I'm your host Paula. Farris and I am very excited to welcome. This week's guest the one and only Chris Voss who spent twenty four years with the FBI was the FBI's chief international hostage negotiator. He's got just a few credits under his belt. Chris Welcome to the podcast very much and I before she did that. Introduction when she said she was a host I was gonna say I was. I'm the comedic sidekick. Do you need to have comedy skills for negotiation or is that just a bonus you develop them you have developed them By the way we do have a live audience. They're eating lunch with us right now at the summit. It's great to have all of you in the room as well. So let's get you our conversation. I learned so much from our conversation at the Summit Day to everyone needs to learn the art of negotiation because life is a negotiation. We're in five to seven negotiations every day. We don't know it. Exactly anytime essense starts out with. I want I need I like. I'd like negotiation. I would like a Tall coca-cola right now. That's a negotiation is always implementation involved there like we talked about this morning. I'd like a cup of coffee from starbucks. You never know what you're going to get might be DECAF. So where does one begin in an election? You begin here in the other side out first and then they may need a little bit of a prompt based on the situation. You may need to let them know that you see things from your point of view A recent negotiation I was in. I needed directions. I'm lost on campus at UCLA in a parking ramp. And I know that if I go the wrong way. I'm never going to find my way out so I gotta find most likely. Who Am. I GONNA see maintenance guy or security guard is the same way I get. I find the best restaurant in an airport. Who YOU'RE GONNA predictably run into and what's the first thing that's going to go through the mind. See A maintenance guy he sees museum and he sees me speed up headed in his direction. He's not an idiot. He knows I'm lost. He knows what I speed up and had his direction that I'm GonNa ask for directions. Saint hopefully not run him over and hopefully not run them over. So what's the first thing goes through his mind? First thing going through his mind is it's not my job to give directions if some idiot is lost in parking ramp so I pull up and I roll down a window and I go. Hey I'm sorry it is not your job to give directions to some idiot is lost parking ramp because what do you need when you need? I'm here for this big conference. Now I know he knows exactly where it is but if I don't lead with that what's his perspective if I just say hey dude I need directions is go ahead and I'll ask you say I don't know because how am I going to say. Oh yes you do. But instead what's in his head I articulate. He says I know exactly where you need to go. Make a right a right. Go up the ramp. You're there it's it's that simple. Let the other person now that you see from their perspective right off the bat and you'll get talking instead of putting them on the defensive right away. You're like I understand that I understand but you welcome them. You're listening to them and you're hearing them understand two millimeter shift is you don't say I understand. Because actually they don't know that you do so you show them offensive. When when my husband tells me I when he says I understand. I'm like no you don't understand and I don't understand you but I just want you to hear me out. I just want you to listen to me when we're trying to people we ask them. When was the last time somebody looked at you and said I understand and then you would also thank God? 'cause we're used to I understand is shorthand for shut up. I WANNA talk. You know every for everyone in this room everybody listening. Everyone can learn the skills of negotiating correct. You believe that. Everybody's got it in them. Everybody was born with a certain amount of emotional intelligence. And it's there it's kind of unlimited unlimited limitless so versus your Iq. You're accused like you're you're you're only going to get so tall you're only going to get you can't raise req- you got a limit on it no matter.

Nikki Haley: "No One Is Going to Fight For You But You"

"Hey there it's Paula Farris and welcome to journeys of faith. Our next guest is widely expected to run for president in twenty twenty four. We're talking to Nikki. Haley former governor of South Carolina and United States Ambassador to the UN on this episode. Haley whose parents are from India talks about being raised in in a Sikh family in rural South Carolina. She reveals what she loves about the Sikh faith but also why she converted to Christianity Haley also dives lives into the confederate flag. Debate those rumors about her replacing Mike Pence on the ticket and she opens up like never before about a possible run for president. Here's Nikki Haley. Nikki Haley welcome into the studio for the journeys of Faith podcast. Last time I saw you on the sidelines of the National Championship Chip College Football Championship game. When Clemson was beating Alabama? Such a good time had an amazing program. I'm really three National Championships. UNSHIPPED four years. We're proud Davo. Were proud of that team or product. Schoon yeah you are and you went to Clemson just for all of those listening out there. You graduated from Clemson and I'm not GonNa date you and say when which are very young well I graduated from Clemson met my husband my first weekend at Clemson got engaged at Clemson and our daughter daughter is now at Clemson's who were a bit clemson obsessed what I really love about your history. Your faith history. You're raised in a seekonk so tell me uh-huh maybe some of the tenants the main tenants of the Sikh faith. Well you know it's interesting because we were the only Indian family in a small southern town probably less the one percent of the population in South Carolina's Indian. And then you go when you look at the Sikhs in the area I mean it was just small. Every third Sunday Sunday seek families would get together at someone's home in the state to have to have prayers and so it was probably no more than one hundred people people that we would get together with but the faith itself is a very kind peaceful faith. It's one that's all accepting mm-hmm they believe in one God and what was so interesting was even though I would go every third Sunday with my family somewhere My parents made us go to different churches. Methodist Baptist Catholic Yummy. You name it. They go so my mom would say I want you to respect everyone and how they do their prayers but you understand. There's one guide but everyone has has their own pathway. And as long as you have your relationship with God the new will be okay and so they just wanted us one to respect other religions but to to understand and see the relationship people have with God and so it was really important because I talk about how and why I converted converted when I would go to a good war or temple for prayers. I would feel it. I would feel God in the room but I couldn't understand understand it because I didn't I didn't know the religion I didn't know the language and so when I started dating my husband and we started going more and more to his church and he was methodist. I immediately could relate I immediately. You found a connection of a sudden there was not just the feeling but it was the words that I could relate to. That really meant something to me. And that was really when I knew if I wanted to grow deeper in my faith if I wanted to have a stronger relationship tip I needed to have something that spoke to me and so that was that was how it happened so your husband was methodist when you met him. Yeah you're seek and you had a multi-denominational wedding you celebrated the methodist traditions and the Sikh traditions girl my family obviously wanted to see me have an Indian ceremony so I did. So that was for all of their friends and family and then we had a Christian ceremony for Michael's friends and family so in the end we got married twice. Were doubly. Okay yes you're deli okay. I know you just touched on it. But what made you convert to Christianity from the Sikh faith a faith that your parents still adhere adhere to it really was when you grow your faith you have to be able to talk to God and you have to be able to go to a service service and feel it and if you don't understand the language you're not hearing it and it's harder and harder to feel it and so the the language that they're speaking is just to clarify Punjabi. Yes was what they were speaking at the time. But you know you have to have that connection and when you're sitting thing in service and you feel it that's one it's so important you know I always say My faith has grown over time. Because you know I you have a faith because your appearance teach you to have a strong faith then you start to grow when you get married because you have faith together with your husband and then when you have children it takes you to a whole new level because Michael always said that our children if we could teach them a faith and a conscience everything else would be okay and so all of a sudden it gets deeper and then as I went through challenges in my life it just went to another level I mean obviously when we dealt with the Charleston shooting. I think that was a huge turning point for me because it was so painful and it was so hard that there was no one or nothing that was going to get me through that but God and I I mean that's when I started to believe in and just recite Joshua one nine be strong and be courageous. Do not be afraid you know or the Lord. Your God is with you wherever God with you wherever you go and I think that was you know when you when you feel that and you and it speaks to you you look more for how else it can speak to you and how you can grow your faith. Hey I want to touch on the Charleston shooting in just a moment which you write about in yearbook. That's out with all due respect it was released in two thousand nineteen but just going back to the Sikh faith. I know you have converted to Christianity. Your parents are still seek. Are there parts of the faith. The tradition practices that you still implement into to your daily life that you still hold dear. I think you know more than that. It's just respect for parents. Respect for family Love of all people MHM Respect for all people and you know in the Sikh faith it acknowledges other religions so it doesn't say you have to be secret nothing else. It acknowledges analogize other religions it acknowledges Jesus it acknowledges you know that Jesus was the son of God you and so there's different things that they had more than that what I take from it is the is the respect and the peaceful side of the Sikh faith which is respect everyone and in everything you do in your life should lead to peace and the best way to appreciate your blessings is to give back. Those were the things that I took away from what my parents parents taught us. And when the Sikh faith taught us and so then when I converted to Christianity those are all things that you can still go and build on and carry it forward right but I I you know. I can't give enough credit to my parents for how they raised us. And how much emphasis put on the respect of other religions and I think that's that's what made for me and easier transition and they have never had a problem with the fact that I've converted and I want to talk about your book. Yes called with all due respect out. Now congratulations thank you a lot of fun to write very therapeutic. I can imagine but in one of the sections. I know you talk about your faith in the book but in one of the sections you talk about the Charleston shooting which you just mentioned in how much you relied on your faith to get you through that you also made the decision to take down the confederate flag can at the State House grounds. And you said at the time that it because of the connection in the connotation to hatred and racism At I know recently you WanNa Glenn Back and you said that you caused a little controversy in that interview. You said that some saw the confederate flag is service and sacrifice and heritage. And that Dylann unroofed. The gunmen hijacked it. Some people felt that this was a reversal. Because in two thousand fifteen you say that it's deeply offensive symbol of brutally oppressive past. I was at a reversal. So telling of how toxic politics has gotten literally the same words I said in Glen on the Glenn Beck Show are the same words. I said in twenty-fifty if you go back and read my speech where I'm asking for the flag to come down. I talk about how some some people in the state saw the flag and related to service and heritage and talk about the other people in the state that saw all the flag and felt pain. And what I said was. We don't want anyone in our state to feel pain when they see that flag and I went on onto say not to judge either side as a governor. That's not your job. You Represent All people what it was was. I need all of you to come together. You can have respect for the confederate flag. But we're going to move it to a museum because it is a living breathing symbol. That does not represent. Is that all of the people in the state and went on to talk about. How if it causes any child pain when they passed that Nate House? There's something wrong and and we needed to pull it down. Had I gone and said that half the state was racist. That flag would never have come

The Strange Story of Hazel the Outlaw Mummy

"To ensure that mccurdy's rambling days for over. Mccready is hardly the only outlaw turned famous mummy. Take the case of one Hazel Farris, born in Kentucky in eighteen eighty or fisa child and later married to a man with whom she drank heavily and fought loudly. Her history has morphed into folklore, but by all accounts on August. Sixth nineteen o five the couple had an argument over Ferris's desire to buy a new hat. If you've been in a relationship for any length of time, you know, that wasn't really what they were fighting about. The two came to blows and fairus ended up shooting. Her husband who died on the living room floor. Neighbors heard the gunshots. Summoned police the situation did not improve upon their arrival because fairus shot and killed them to. A passing deputy sheriff heard the commotion gained entry to the house and tried to restrain Farris during the scuffle. The deputy tripped on fairus his husband's body accidentally firing his gun and shooting off one of her fingers. There is eventually broke free and fatally shot the deputy as well. So she shot the sheriff, and she did shoot the deputy. With five murders under her belt at five hundred dollar reward for her capture, which I couldn't put into modern figures because the inflation calculators don't go back that far serious fled to Bessemer Alabama to try to begin a new life. One version of her story has her posing as schoolmarm another as her working as a prostitute. But both agree that she drank excessively. She took up with a new man, and when they became engaged fairus confided in him who she really was he immediately gave her up to police on December. Twentieth. Nineteen oh six fairly certain. She wouldn't emerge victorious from a second. Shootout. He sulfurous committed suicide by drinking some combination of whiskey fuel, oil, and arsenic. Ferris's body was taken to Adams vermillion furniture, which also sold caskets and as such functioned as the local funeral parlor. No one came forward to claim her body, which was strangely mummifying rather than decomposing. There is speculation that it's because of the chemicals fairus drink. But I don't put a great deal of stock by that. Regardless of the reason, the corpse had long jetty and certain renown Adams began charging curious visitors ten cents to see the notorious outlaw. After a time fairus his body. Hit the road when Adams loaned the corpse to various exhibitors, including his brother and Tuscaloosa palace, wonders sideshow operator, captain Harvey leabeau's, well and Seabrook's who featured the well preserved remains in his traveling show for forty years when he died Brooks left Hazel to a nephew on the condition that any money raised from displaying her be donated to charity as the story goes Brooks's, nephew, displayed Ferris's mummy to raise money to build churches in Tennessee, just let that paradigm sinking the nephew. Eventually brought her back to Bessemer where she became an infamous attraction at the newly formed hall of history. The hall of history also had exhibits.

Just like the science museum here in my hometown. After a long run at the hall of history.

An autopsy performed the documentary indicated the mummified woman had died of pneumonia not poisoning, but one of her fingers had indeed been shot off sometime well before her death.
