“BACK TO DI ROOTS" Daniel Ray “Back to Di Roots” by Daniel Ray is a healing reggae meditation about modern life, family, and the children who grow up in the middle of it. The song reflects on how society has changed—fast, digital, distracted—and how our kids receive less nurture than ever before. Daniel reminds us that love, presence, time, and emotional safety are the real foundation of a healthy future.This is not blame. It’s awakening. A call to return to the basics.Back to connection. Back to heart. Back to di roots.” The Thermostat with Jason Barger Jason V Barger A thermostat is proactive. It sets the temperature in a room. Controls the temperature. Regulates the temperature. But in today's distracted, fast-paced and digital world, it's easy for individuals and organizations to act more like thermometers, slipping into reactionary thinking, becoming scattered and inconsistent. The most compelling leaders, teams, organizations, families or collection of humans of any kind operate in thermostat mode. They calibrate their mind and heart to set the temperature for the vision and culture they want to create. Jason Barger, globally celebrated author, keynote speaker and founder of Step Back Leadership Consulting, guides this journey to discover authentic leadership, create compelling cultures and find clarity of mission, vision and values.

Deep Listening - Impact beyond words - Oscar Trimboli Oscar Trimboli The world is a noisy place where you fight to be heard every day. Despite the fact that we have been taught at home and at school how to speak, none of us has had any training in how to listen. Multiple academic studies have shown that between 50% and 55% of your working day is spent listening, yet only 2% of people have been trained in how to listen.We feel frustrated, isolated and confused because we aren't heard.As a speaker, it takes absolutely no training to notice when someone isn't listening - they're distracted, they interrupt or drift away as you talk.Yet the opposite is also true, without any training in how to listen we struggle to stay connected with the speaker and the discussion.This results in unproductive workplaces where people fight to be heard and need to repeat themselves constantly, send emails to confirm what they said and then have follow-up meetings to ensure what was said was actually heard by those in the meeting. It's a downward spiral that drains ene
