North Colorado Human-First Resume Writing & Career Guidance Services Announced
Resume Catalyst has launched a human-first resume writing and career strategy service for professionals across North Colorado, including Fort Collins, Windsor, Boulder, and Loveland. More information is available at http://www.resumecatalyst.com/ Job seekers often struggle with resumes that fail to capture their authentic professional story and career achievements, says an agency spokesperson. Generic templates and automated systems cannot replace the insight that comes from genuine conversation between an experienced HR professional and the client. Resume Catalyst's approach addresses this by combining face-to-face consultations with comprehensive career planning. Founder Catherine Belanger, who brings 30 years of HR and Talent Acquisition experience plus a B.S. in Psychology, works directly with clients to uncover their core motivations and professional value through structured discovery sessions. The service process begins with a 30-minute kickoff session where clients discuss their career goals and target roles. Following this, clients complete a Career Reflective Questionnaire featuring thought-provoking questions designed to reveal what truly drives their professional decisions. Two 60-minute strategy sessions then focus on messaging, positioning, and developing an actionable search plan before final deliverables are refined and finalized. All packages include an ATS-optimized resume that highlights measurable achievements, a customizable cover letter template, and a LinkedIn profile upgrade to increase professional visibility and attract opportunities. Resume writing features narrative-style content that presents accomplishments with clear metrics, scope, and impact statements while positioning candidates effectively for their target roles. Career strategy sessions help professionals identify their next steps through structured reflection and expert guidance. As a recruiting consultant who has spent decades on the hiring side, Belanger understands what catches attention and what causes applications to be rejected. "Resumes aren't one-size-fits-all. I still believe in sitting down with people, listening to their stories, and capturing their unique voice," said Catherine Belanger, founder of Resume Catalyst. The company serves clients ranging from recent college graduates entering the professional workforce to executive-level leaders at the VP and C-suite levels. Services extend across multiple industries, including construction, engineering, oil and gas, biotechnology, manufacturing, healthcare, renewable energy, and high-growth small businesses. Optional coaching sessions provide additional support for interview preparation, resume reviews, career pivot guidance, and offer negotiation strategies.

Resilient Stories Announces Annual Spark to Heal Symposium
Resilient Stories: Harnessing the Healing Power of Storytelling In a world that often encourages perfection, Resilient Stories offers a refreshing departure. Founded by Danielle Dahl, this trauma-aware creative platform has set out on a mission to reclaim the power of storytelling as a tool for healing, growth, and community impact. In 2025, the platform took a monumental step forward with the launch of Spark to Heal (12/02), an annual symposium designed to unite individuals through the shared experience of storytelling. This event, coupled with Resilient Stories' growing community initiatives, helps transform pain into purpose, demonstrating how raw, honest narratives can lead to collective wellness and personal recovery. A Journey Rooted in Healing and Personal Growth Resilient Stories was born from Danielle Dahl's own experience with childhood trauma and healing through the written word. For years, Danielle used writing as a deeply personal practice to process and move beyond her struggles. What began as a solitary journey eventually blossomed into a shared mission. Danielle's vision expanded beyond her own healing to include others who had also experienced hardship. The platform she created is a place where stories are not only told but also used as vehicles for transformation and healing. “What began as a deeply personal practice evolved into a community-focused platform for helping others tell their stories, with honesty, heart, and no pressure to polish the pain," says Danielle Dahl, Founder of Resilient Stories. The Spark to Heal Symposium: Turning Pain into Purpose The Spark to Heal symposium is a key feature of Resilient Stories' mission. Launched in 2025, in partnership with Upstream Strategy Partners, the event offers a space for individuals to come together, share their narratives, and find solace in the stories of others. Far from a traditional conference, Spark to Heal is a unique event that recognizes the value of vulnerability in personal growth. Participants are encouraged to share their unpolished, authentic truths, no matter how messy the middle may be, creating a sense of shared humanity and connection. As a first-of-its-kind storytelling symposium, Spark to Heal provides a platform for attendees to explore how their personal narratives can ignite healing and inspire positive change. The event fosters a supportive environment where individuals can learn from one another, share insights, and begin the journey of creative recovery. For many, Spark to Heal has become a pivotal point in their own healing process, offering both practical tools and emotional support. A Platform Built on Community and Connection What sets Resilient Stories apart from other storytelling platforms is its commitment to creating a community around the act of storytelling. Through one-on-one story coaching, publishing opportunities, and community events, Resilient Stories has established a space where individuals are supported throughout their creative recovery process. Danielle Dahl's vision for Resilient Stories has always been centered around the idea that healing does not only happen in therapy or in isolation. Instead, it is through shared narratives, communal spaces, and collective support that healing truly takes place. "We don’t tell perfect stories, we tell true ones," says Dahl, emphasizing the importance of authenticity in the healing process. From Healing to Leadership: Danielle Dahl's Expanding Vision Danielle’s passion for storytelling and trauma recovery has not only shaped Resilient Stories but has also inspired her to pursue further academic study in psychology. Currently working toward a Ph.D. in psychology, Danielle continues to deepen her understanding of narrative healing, blending her personal experiences with a professional commitment to supporting others through their journeys of recovery. In addition to her academic work, Danielle continues to speak across Montana and beyond about narrative healing and creative wellness. Through her role as editor of the Resilient Stories Anthology Series and as a speaker, Danielle has helped countless individuals find their voice and begin the work of transforming their pain into purpose. “This is a place where stories don’t just live. They spark healing,” says Danielle, capturing the essence of the work being done at Resilient Stories. Through its innovative programs and events, the platform has created a space where individuals are empowered to reclaim their narratives and rewrite their stories with greater meaning and strength. Building a Movement of Storytellers At its core, Resilient Stories is more than just a platform; it is a movement. The stories shared through the platform, whether in community events or through the Spark to Heal symposium, are a testament to the transformative power of creative expression. Resilient Stories continues to grow as a beacon for individuals seeking to reclaim their voice and heal through the process of storytelling. As the platform moves into its next phase, Resilient Stories is poised to further its mission of empowering people to turn their pain into power. With an emphasis on authenticity and vulnerability, Danielle Dahl and her team are paving the way for a more compassionate and connected world. About Resilient Stories Resilient Stories was founded by writer and speaker Danielle Dahl to provide a trauma-aware space for storytelling and creative recovery. The platform encourages individuals to share their raw, unpolished truths as a means of healing and personal growth. Through community events, publishing opportunities, and coaching, Resilient Stories aims to build a movement of individuals reclaiming their narratives and turning pain into purpose.

Off-Grid Living Made Possible with an Enduramaxx Rainwater Harvesting Tank
Enduramaxx has helped make off-grid living a reality for Robyn, a 34-year-old animal care professional, who transformed a shipping container into a fully functioning home using a 5,000-litre Enduramaxx rainwater harvesting tank. The innovative setup has enabled her to achieve complete water independence without the enormous cost of connecting to the mains. Robyn, who has experience working on farms and training dogs, had long dreamed of starting a smallholding and living sustainably. But with traditional housing and land ownership increasingly expensive, she sought an alternative path. “Unfortunately, it is near impossible to buy land to live on at an affordable price,” she explains. “I started looking into alternative ways people across the world live, and I stumbled across the idea of a container home. I had not seen it done before in the UK, but there was plenty in Australia and Africa. Being off grid just came in part and parcel with that lifestyle I was looking for.” The Challenge When Robyn purchased her property, she soon learned that connecting to the mains water supply would cost more than £30,000 , due to the supply line being privately owned. “That’s why no one else would buy the property,” she says. “But I always had the intention of living off grid, so I rigged up one of your 5000L water tanks to the roof of my container, which is then filtered and goes through a UV light before being pumped into the taps in the container home.” To make her off-grid home viable, she needed a reliable and cost-effective water source that could operate independently year-round. The Solution: Enduramaxx Rainwater Harvesting Robyn installed an Enduramaxx 5,000 Litre non-potable vertical tank in black , paired with a rainwater harvesting kit A , to collect and store rainwater from the container roof. “I chose this tank due to its size, really, as it fits nicely into the area beside our container,” she explains. “Enduramaxx staff sent me a helpful diagram, and I managed to install the system myself with minimal DIY experience.” To maximise collection efficiency, she made a simple modification by cutting a lower inlet hole to increase the height difference from the guttering. How the System Works The collected rainwater is filtered, passed through a UV light, and pumped into the taps, shower and washing machine inside her container home. “I use the tank to supply all the water to my container home, everything except drinking water,” Robyn says. “Because we’re under a flight path and near a power plant, there’s likely some pollution, so I prefer not to drink it.” Important Note on Drinking Rainwater Enduramaxx does not recommend drinking rainwater stored in a non-potable tank . Rainwater can contain contaminants from roof materials, bird droppings and airborne pollution. Rainwater intended for human consumption must be properly filtered and sterilised to meet drinking water standards. Results: Water Independence Achieved Robyn’s Enduramaxx system has given her complete independence from the mains water network. “The tank is a great purchase and performs as it should,” she says. “I can’t fault it and I will buy another one before next summer as a secondary tank to ensure I have plenty of water storage going forward.” During drier months, she carefully monitors usage and plans to expand her setup with additional tanks, including a unit for greywater recycling to irrigate trees and gardens. Customer Experience “My experience with Enduramaxx was good,” Robyn says. “There was a bit of a muddle up with the delivery dates, which set us back quite a bit, but once it was sorted, it arrived fine, and the delivery driver dropped it right into the place we needed it to be.” She adds, “I’d 100% recommend Enduramaxx. You’ve got everything you need in one place for all your off-grid water needs.” Her advice to others considering rainwater harvesting: “If you're going to be a bear, be a grizzly! Meaning if you think a 5,000 litre tank is enough, go bigger! You can’t have enough water.” Summary Robyn’s off-grid container home showcases how practical, affordable and sustainable off-grid living can be with the right water storage solution. With her Enduramaxx rainwater harvesting tank, she has built a lifestyle that is completely free from reliance on the mains. “Having our own water supply is a vital part of our off-grid journey,” she says. “Without the tank, we wouldn’t be able to store as much water safely.” Learn more about Enduramaxx rainwater harvesting kits .

Global Impact Award Deadline Prompts Industry Discussion as Nominations Close Nov. 30
The Global Impact Award issues a final call for nominations before its online ceremony on December 19, 2025. The Global Impact Award (GIA), a rapidly growing business recognition platform, announced that nominations will close on November 30 , ahead of its online ceremony on December 19 . The organization is addressing a longstanding issue: why do systems intended to reward innovation continue to overlook many of the world’s innovators? This announcement comes as general and corporate awards continue to favor established institutions, limiting visibility for emerging-market founders, early-stage ventures, women-led teams, and impact-driven organizations. GIA positions itself as a platform willing to address this imbalance. What if Award Systems Prioritized Merit Over Market Influence? GIA asserts that the industry’s focus on legacy prestige has led to three key consequences: Visibility gaps: High-performing startups and mid-sized ventures in Africa, Asia, and Latin America often lack the public relations support available to businesses in North America and Europe. Investor blind spots: A 2024 Harvard Business Review analysis found that companies with third-party recognition receive 28% more investor interest. Distorted standards of excellence: Public relations and company awards often prioritize presentation quality over measurable impact. GIA’s approach is straightforward: publish judging criteria in advance, democratize entry, eliminate revenue-based bias, and evaluate businesses on measurable outcomes, innovation, social value, digital maturity, market traction, and sustainability alignment. Why the Global Impact Award’s Approach Challenges Industry Gatekeepers GIA clarifies that its goal is not to disrupt the system but to correct it. The award’s design directly addresses the “recognition inequality” present in decades of industry-specific awards: Accessibility : The nomination and evaluation process is entirely online, eliminating travel costs, networking barriers, and logistical challenges common in many business recognition awards. Transparency : GIA publicly shares its scoring system, a practice many awards avoid. Evaluators include global specialists in sustainability, finance, technology, and communications, representing markets often underrepresented on judging panels. Worldwide Significance : FinTech, GreenTech, EdTech, HealthTech, Social Enterprise, innovative marketing awards, and public relations awards are among the categories that correspond with the global innovation goals emphasized by institutions such as the OECD. The nomination deadline is November 30, 2025, regardless of industry readiness. The Global Impact Award Ceremony will take place online on December 19, 2025. GIA reports a significant increase in nominations from developing markets, particularly those previously excluded from elite recognition platforms. This trend suggests that entrepreneurs and businesses are pursuing new strategies to gain recognition and build their reputations. Business founders, innovators, and impact-driven organizations worldwide are expected to submit nominations by November 30 Visit us on social media: LinkedIn | Facebook | X

Its team uses proven foundation crack repair techniques, including epoxy injection, polyurethane sealing, and exterior waterproofing methods to fix these problems. More details can be found at https://www.unitedstructuralsystems.com/foundation-crack-repair/ The contractor explains that early inspections are the key to keeping repair costs manageable. Cracks may form from concrete shrinkage, weather-driven soil changes, or simple wear over time, but wider openings, spreading cracks, or any sign of water should be evaluated before they lead to structural strain. “Moisture and movement are a bad combination for any foundation. Early evaluation gives homeowners options before the damage becomes more serious,” said a company spokesperson. The inspection helps determine what type of repair is needed. For structural cracks, their technicians use low-pressure epoxy injection, bonding the concrete back together so the wall regains its original strength. When the goal is to stop water entry, polyurethane injection is used instead, expanding into voids and blocking moisture. Both methods are completed from inside the home when possible, minimizing disruption and allowing most issues to be addressed in a single visit. When a crack cannot be accessed from inside, the company performs exterior crack repair by excavating the area around the wall, preparing the surface, applying HLM 5000 waterproofing primer, and installing a bituthene membrane to keep moisture out. For more severe damage or slab-on-grade construction, steel crack plates may be installed to reinforce the wall and prevent further spreading. United Structural Systems of Illinois works with homeowners as well as structural engineers, general contractors, real estate developers, and municipal agencies. With more than 30 years of experience, United Structural Systems of Illinois provides long-term solutions for residential and commercial properties throughout the Chicago metro area. Alongside foundation crack repair, the contractor offers structural stabilization, waterproofing, and related services, supported by technicians trained in multiple repair methods and familiar with local soil and climate conditions. Repairs are backed by a lifetime transferable warranty, giving property owners added confidence in the long-term stability of their foundation.

Cognitive Performance Training System For Enhancing Natural Brain Power Launched
World Beyond Thinking has announced the launch of its "3 A" process, a three-stage online system intended to support cognitive development and personal transformation. The process encompasses Activate, Amplify, and Ascend stages, with clients able to begin at any point based on their individual goals and current development level. More details can be found at https://worldbeyondthinking.com The Activate stage focuses on reconnecting individuals with their innate cognitive potential through two primary methods: theta wave sound therapy and pineal gland detoxification. These approaches are designed to stimulate creativity, intuition, and imagination while working to restore mental clarity and focus. Research from Johns Hopkins Medicine indicates that sound therapy can influence brainwave patterns, with theta waves associated with deep relaxation and creativity. A 2023 study in Frontiers in Human Neuroscience found that theta wave stimulation correlated with improved creative problem-solving abilities in participants. Meanwhile, emerging research on the pineal gland suggests its role in circadian rhythm regulation may impact cognitive function. Building on this foundation, the Amplify phase incorporates alpha wave sound therapy, a second detoxification protocol, and prayer practices. Alpha waves are associated with relaxed alertness, and the combination of methods in this stage is intended to enhance learning capacity, memory retention, and creative thinking. The goal is to help clients experience heightened awareness and increased synchronicities in daily life. Learn more at https://worldbeyondthinking.com/amplify/ "We developed the '3 A' process to provide a structured path for people seeking to unlock their cognitive potential," a company spokesperson explains. "Each stage builds on the previous one, though individuals can enter at any point that aligns with their personal development goals." The Ascend stage incorporates four audio programs utilizing brainwave entrainment technology, combined with additional prayer practices. This phase is designed to elevate focus and decision-making abilities while facilitating emotional healing. World Beyond Thinking was founded by neuroscientist Moira Baxter, who brings years of research experience in brain function, self-awareness, and human potential. Baxter shares insights from neuroscience research and practical tools on the company's platform. Interested parties can find more information by visiting https://worldbeyondthinking.com/ascend/

Naperville Custom-Fabricated Chimney Shrouds: Metalworks Design Services Expand
The recent product expansion from Salvo Metal Works addresses two critical homeowner challenges: protecting chimneys from weather damage and enhancing curb appeal. Built to exact measurements per home specifications, chimney shrouds provide personalized solutions for homeowners. Interested parties can learn more at https://salvometalworks.com/product-category/custom-chimney-shrouds/ Wind-induced downdrafts and wind-driven rain, common to the Chicago area, are problems that compromise both chimney function and structural integrity, explains the company. Custom shrouds address these common issues by creating barriers against weather damage while maintaining proper ventilation for chimney systems. Salvo Metal Works offers custom-made chimney shrouds designed to prevent weather damage, maintain proper ventilation, and increase curb appeal. Unlike off-the-shelf generic alternatives, each unit is engineered to fit precise chimney dimensions, ensuring both functional projection and architectural enhancement. Professional measurement from the experienced team accounts for mounting flanges, side clearances, and chimney chase dimensions to ensure proper sizing. Customers also have the opportunity to approve scale CAD drawings of their custom shroud before manufacturing, to ensure a perfect fit. Shrouds are made from copper, stainless steel, and galvanized steel with powder coating options to enhance their resistance to oxidation, corrosion, and rust. Salvo Metal Works offers multiple styles of shrouds, including pagoda, hip-and-ridge, and modern box designs that allow homeowners to match their home's architectural character. In addition to serving as barriers against rain and wind, the shrouds prevent animals from entering flue systems and improve draft efficiency. Custom shrouds that are outfitted with spark arrestors help keep sparks away from any accumulated creosote - a highly flammable byproduct of burning wood. The combined protection that shrouds and spark arrestors provide help prevent roof fires, keep chimney systems functioning safely and efficiently year-round. Salvo Metal Works' custom design services ensure homeowners can consider their house's style as well as its chimney system's performance, longevity, and safety, a company official said. "Adding these elements to a chimney can enhance the overall curb appeal of the home, making it look more refined and finished," the spokesperson added. "Custom designs can even be used to match other exterior elements, improving the home’s aesthetic value." For more information, please visit https://salvometalworks.com/
