J.R. Simplot Company’s Post

As both an academic studying the phenomenon of intuiting (not the psychic kind, but the natural "sensing + sensemaking", or as Laura Day puts it, "an extension of all of our senses") and a practitioner regularly using intuition in tandem with analysis, I wholeheartedly recommend Laura's work. Her ideas are actionable, practical, do not require changing beliefs, work well for analytical thinkers as much as those accustomed to relying on their senses, and it aligns well with current scholarly thinking on intuition. Laura Day, congratulations on your new book! #intuition #sensory #sensing #knowingthroughsensing #intuiting #sensemaking

I launched Mync Boutique while sitting alone in my car, across from a post office, with nothing but a vision and determination. The road was filled with obstacles, but each struggle reinforced my commitment to my dream. Today, Mync Boutique is a thriving symbol of female entrepreneurship and empowerment. For all the women out there who feel alone in their journey, remember: your solitary beginnings can lead to extraordinary achievements. Keep believing in your dreams. 🌟 #WomenInBusiness #EntrepreneurialSpirit #Empowerment

Was just reading the foreword by Doug Tallamy...WOW! Here's a small sample... “Every once in a while, a book comes along that meets an important need most people don’t know they have. Sarah Jayne’s Nature’s Action Guide is such a book. Sarah could have called her book Conservation for Dummies—not that she wrote it for true dummies, but because she has identified a subject everyone needs to know but almost no one was ever taught: how to share our spaces with the natural world.” … “Sarah wrote Nature’s Action Guide as a complement to my book Nature’s Best Hope. My last chapter suggested 10 things homeowners could/should do to help share their property with nature. After reading my book, Sarah set about trying to enact each of these suggestions in her own yard but quickly realized that, even as an experienced gardener, she didn’t know enough to be successful. And if she didn’t know enough, many other budding conservationists were likely to struggle as well. Sarah’s solution was to write Nature’s Action Guide, a step-by-step, easy to use manual that explains how each of us, regardless of our background or gardening experience, can accomplish all of the goals I propose in Nature’s Best Hope, as well as several I only hinted at! Restoration biology is a relatively young scientific discipline a few decades old. Practicing restoration in human-dominated landscapes, in comparison, is in its infancy and we are still learning what works and what doesn’t work. One of its many distinguishing features is that Nature’s Action Guide is current, explaining state-of-the-art conservation in suburbia with the most up-to-date best-practices available. Even a half-hearted attempt to follow Sarah’s action items is guaranteed to improve the biodiversity potential of your landscape and thus the productivity of your local ecosystem. For this, we all owe Sarah Jayne our heartfelt thanks and gratitude—because, whether we appreciate it or not, we all depend on those same ecosystems.” Douglas W. Tallamy

Man this is not a day I want to repeat any time soon! Stressful is an understatement. So here are some good things that came out of it..... seriously I have to see the learnings 1 I have built an amazing team that are ready to dig in when it is not going well, who go above and beyond. 2 Our backup system is there, including talent and we can improve the way we launch new products. 3 Our communication process in notifying our subscribers what is happening worked, with improvement to in even fast notifications and areas that are an issue. 4 My house is superclean 😆, this from channelling stress in to activity that didn't involve comfort eating. 5 Letting go of things to a higher power when something is out of my control. 6 My subscribers are super wonderful and our system isn't just a product it is a partnership with them. 7 Sometimes running a business is risky and you have to roll with the punches, but having amazing relationships and a strong passion to improve an industry is going to be exciting and rough at times. Bring on tomorrow 🍍🌻❤️🤞

✨ Reflecting on an Amazing Event We Had Last Wednesday 🎨 Participants explored the powerful topic of unlocking their potential through NeuroGraphica® and the Professional Success Power Cards. At the start of the workshop, each participant received a card from the Professional Success Power Cards set, setting the tone for their journey and providing unique guidance throughout the process. Here are some highlights shared during and after the NeuroGraphica® drawing session: 🌟 Pain Relief/Headache/Tension: One participant shared that there was a physical pain before starting the drawing, but by the end, the pain was completely gone. Another participant noted feeling calmer after dissolving the catharsis, although some tension or headache lingered and by the end of the process, even these symptoms had disappeared. 🌟 Taking Action: Every participant identified the first step they would take to unlock their potential—turning insights from the drawing into an actionable plan. Thank you to everyone who joined and embraced this journey with openness and curiosity. I can’t wait to see the amazing things you’ll achieve! 💫

Thank you for being here today. As we gather, I want to take a moment to reflect on the journey that brought us to this point. Each of us has faced challenges, encountered obstacles, and experienced moments of doubt. But through it all, we have persevered, driven by a vision—a vision not just of success, but of making a lasting impact.Business is not just about profits or market share; it’s about creating value, solving problems, and improving lives. Every product we launch, every service we offer, has the potential to change someone’s world. This is the power of what we do, and it’s a responsibility we should never take lightly.As we look to the future, I want to remind you that innovation doesn’t just come from new technology or ideas; it comes from a mindset. A mindset that embraces change, that sees challenges as opportunities, and that is relentless in the pursuit of excellence.We are not here to follow the path others have laid out. We are here to blaze our own trail, to set new standards, and to push the boundaries of what’s possible. But this journey is not one we take alone. It’s the collective effort of each individual in this room that will determine our success.So, I challenge you today to think bigger, to dream bolder, and to act with purpose. Don’t be afraid to take risks, to challenge the status quo, and to pursue your passions with everything you have. The world is changing rapidly, and those who adapt and innovate will not just survive—they will thrive.Remember, greatness is not achieved in isolation. It’s achieved by teams who believe in something bigger than themselves, who trust each other, and who are committed to a shared vision. Let’s support one another, celebrate our successes, and learn from our failures.The future is ours to create. Let’s make it extraordinary.Thank you.
