    1380: From Financial Struggles to Empowering the Next Generation of Learners with Financial Literacy Education Advocate Vince Shorb
    Jul 23 2025
    It’s frustrating seeing so many young people leave school with no clue how to handle money, yet they can recite facts they'll never use again. The system pushes grades and degrees but skips over the stuff that actually shapes daily life—budgeting, credit, investing, taxes. Then they're thrown into adulthood expected to figure it all out on the fly, usually after making a bunch of costly mistakes. It’s hard not to wonder why the basics of financial survival aren’t considered essential education. Vince Shorb is the CEO of the National Financial Educators Council and a longtime advocate for real-world financial education. After leaving a career in finance, he focused on helping young people develop practical money skills and entrepreneurial thinking. Today, he talks about the urgent need to bring financial literacy into schools. He shares how early habits shape lifelong outcomes and why students need tools to manage money, plan careers, and avoid common financial pitfalls. His mission is to shift education toward long-term financial well-being. Stay tuned!

    It’s easy to get caught in the grind, chasing goals while your well-being quietly slips away.

    It’s hard carrying pain from the past that still echoes into daily life. Childhood trauma doesn’t just fade—it shapes how we see ourselves and the world around us.

    1376: Pure Water Northwest: Why Every Homeowner Needs to Test Their Water Before It’s Too Late with Cydian Kauffman
    Jul 19 2025
    We tend to take clean water for granted, assuming that if it comes from the tap, it must be safe. But the truth is, "safe" by legal standards doesn’t always mean healthy. Contaminants like heavy metals and industrial chemicals can still be present at low levels, flying under the radar while slowly impacting our health. It’s unsettling to think that the water we rely on every day might be quietly doing more harm than good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGETqvGFv5Y Cydian Kauffman, owner of Pure Water Northwest, is a water treatment specialist serving Western Washington. With a background in property management and a passion for clean water, he helps clients identify and fix contamination issues in both municipal and well systems. Today, he exposes the hidden dangers in everyday water sources and explained why legal limits don’t always mean safe levels. He breaks down treatment options and highlights the real health risks many families unknowingly face. Stay tuned!
