Maurice Bouchard Calls for Greater Awareness of Creative Wellness for Parents and Caregivers

  • Athens artist and stay at home dad urges families to protect small creative moments as a path to mental health, balance, and resilience

Georgia, US, 9 Dec 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, Maurice Bouchard, an artist and stay at home parent, is raising awareness about the importance of creative wellness for parents and caregivers. Drawing from his own experience balancing childcare and art, he is encouraging families to rethink how small creative habits can improve emotional health and daily stability.

“Most days start with getting my child settled,” Bouchard said. “When I get a quiet moment, I set up my watercolor paints on the kitchen table. Even ten minutes helps me feel connected to myself.”

His message comes at a time when stress levels among parents continue to rise. According to the American Psychological Association, nearly 70 percent of parents report feeling overwhelmed by daily responsibilities, and more than half say they struggle to find time for themselves. Studies from the National Institutes of Health show that even brief creative activities can lower stress, improve mood, and increase resilience.

Bouchard believes those findings match what he has lived. “I used to finish a painting in one long session,” he explained. “Now I work in small steps. It taught me that progress does not need to be fast. It just needs to be steady.”

Growing up in Watkinsville, he learned early that imagination could spark confidence and curiosity. He spent his childhood reading manga, watching sci fi shows, and exploring new worlds through video games. “Those stories taught me about courage and exploration,” he said. “They still inspire me every day.”

His years working in memory care and hospital settings also shaped his message. “Those jobs taught me patience and presence,” Bouchard noted. “Every moment matters to someone. That mindset carries into parenting. Slowing down is part of success.”

Bouchard now uses watercolor painting, 3D printing, and miniature art to stay grounded. “Watercolor is calm and forgiving. If I make a mistake, I can blend it out or start fresh,” he said. “That is a good lesson for life too.”

His advocacy does not focus on buying products or joining programs. Instead, he wants individuals to see creativity as something accessible. His call to action is simple: protect one small creative moment a day.

“People think creativity takes hours,” Bouchard said. “It does not. You can sketch for five minutes, paint one corner of a page, or read two pages of a book. Small creative acts add up.”

He also encourages caregivers to embrace imperfect routines. “Some days you will not finish anything,” he added. “That is okay. Success is the practice of showing up, not the size of the result.”

Research supports his approach. A study from the Journal of Positive Psychology found that engaging in a creative activity for just 15 minutes can boost overall well-being. Another study from Drexel University reported that stress markers drop significantly after brief art making sessions, even for beginners.

Bouchard hopes more parents and caregivers will explore simple ways to bring creativity into their daily routine. “You do not need fancy supplies,” he said. “A pencil, a notebook, and a quiet moment can go a long way.”

What People Can Do Today

Bouchard encourages families to:

  • Take five minutes for a creative break each day.

  • Keep simple tools visible, such as pencils, brushes, or a small sketchbook.

  • Choose hobbies that fit short windows of time.

  • Allow imperfections and slow progress.

  • Share creative routines with kids to build connection and reduce stress for both parent and child.

“Creativity builds connection,” Bouchard said. “It connects you to yourself, your family, and your sense of calm. Anyone can start small and feel the difference.”

PlaysOut Launches PAYOUT Party Demonstrating the Power of Mini-Games and a New Web3 Growth Engine

Published

on

United Arab Emirates, 10th Dec 2025, – PlaysOut — the global leader in Mini-Games 2.0 has officially launched PAYOUT Party, a 30-day ecosystem campaign designed to accelerate user activation, showcasing how mini-games drive sustainable growth in Web3.

More than a rewards promotion, PAYOUT Party is a live experiment in value loops, user behavior and scalable ecosystem expansion. It tests how incentives and lightweight gameplay combine to create durable economic participation, not just temporary hype.

Every top-up in PlaysOut’s web mini-games is returned 100% in $PLAY once the campaign ends.

What is usually spent and gone becomes participation and retention.
Capital stays inside the ecosystem, circulating through players, reinforcing liquidity, driving repeat engagement and increasing token velocity.

PAYOUT Party reverses the traditional Web3 spend model:
players aren’t just buyers, they’re value contributors, and the system rewards them for it.

This builds a healthier economy, deeper user loyalty and long-term growth instead of one-off spend.

PlaysOut Launches PAYOUT Party Demonstrating the Power of Mini-Games and a New Web3 Growth Engine

To activate this new growth loop, PlaysOut developed a unified mission system that runs across Binance Square, PlaysOut Web Games, X (Twitter) and referrals.

Every user action; content creation, gameplay, social engagement, on-chain activity feeds into one incentive engine visible on the campaign hub. This is one of the first times a Web3 gaming ecosystem has merged such wide behaviors into a single reward framework, creating a transparent and trackable engagement loop.

As the campaign scales, PlaysOut’s role in the wider landscape becomes clearer:
it is not just a mini-game platform, but a cross-ecosystem connector and standardized infrastructure layer for the Mini-Games 2.0 era. Over the past year, PlaysOut has integrated with Binance, OKX, and other parties demonstrating how seamlessly it can unify user behavior across ecosystems. Whether activity starts on-chain, socially, or inside a game, it all funnels back into the PlaysOut user system, building the foundation for deeper global partnerships.

The greater purpose behind PAYOUT Party is to prove a new Web3 growth model:
user behavior becomes an asset, participation becomes cyclical and incentives programmable.

The 100% refund mechanic isn’t a giveaway, it’s a trust engine that converts user actions into measurable value. Once gameplay, social flow and on-chain operations operate under one consistent participation model, a self-sustaining Web3 gaming flywheel emerges.

As the campaign tagline puts it: “You Play. We Pay.”new value relationship between platforms and players; and a signal of where Web3 gaming is heading next.

 

About PlaysOut
PlaysOut is the high-performance infrastructure powering the future of Super Apps through Mini-Games 2.0.

Fully compatible with the WeChat mini-game ecosystem, PlaysOut transforms high-traffic platforms into frictionless gaming hubs, unlocking new revenue, retention, and engagement at scale.

K38 Consulting Expands Premium Financial Leadership Solutions for High-Growth Companies and Startups

Published

on

United States, 10th Dec 2025, Grand NewswireK38 Consulting, a leading provider of strategic financial and operational advisory services, today announced the expansion of its specialized CFO and controller support offerings designed to help businesses scale with confidence. As organizations face new economic challenges, complex financial reporting requirements, and heightened investor expectations, more companies are turning to flexible, expert-driven solutions such as outsourced CFO services to strengthen their financial infrastructure without the cost of full-time executive hires.

With businesses seeking more agile models of financial leadership, K38 Consulting has positioned itself as a trusted resource for growth-stage companies, private equity-backed firms, and technology startups. Through expanded offerings such as fractional CFO services, the firm delivers senior-level financial strategy at a fraction of the cost of traditional in-house executive staffing. These solutions enable companies to optimize budgets while gaining the insight needed to navigate dynamic markets, investor reporting expectations, and rapid expansion.

K38 Consulting Expands Premium Financial Leadership Solutions for High-Growth Companies and Startups

Driving Smarter Growth With Strategic CFO Support

As early-stage and mid-market companies compete in increasingly fast-paced industries, demand continues to rise for specialized guidance such as startup CFO services. Many founders possess exceptional product and operational expertise but lack the financial oversight necessary to secure funding, manage cash flow, forecast accurately, and implement scalable financial systems. K38 Consulting bridges this gap by providing experienced finance leaders who understand the unique needs of emerging companies.

The company’s expanded service lineup includes comprehensive budget development, board reporting, audit preparation, cash flow forecasting, financial modeling, and KPI tracking. By offering flexible and personalized engagement models, K38 Consulting ensures startups receive the right level of financial oversight at every stage of growth. This approach allows companies to build strong financial foundations while maintaining cost efficiency—making high-level financial management more accessible than ever before.

Strengthening Financial Operations With Controller-Level Expertise

Beyond CFO leadership, companies also benefit from improved day-to-day financial operations. To meet this need, K38 Consulting now extends its specialized controller services for startups to support organizations lacking formal accounting infrastructure. These services help businesses improve accuracy in financial reporting, ensure compliance with accounting standards, and enhance visibility into financial performance.

A skilled controller is essential for scaling companies that need clean books, audit-ready financials, and timely reporting for investors and lenders. K38 Consulting’s controller team works closely with startup founders and internal finance staff to implement efficient workflows, modern accounting systems, and financial controls that create operational resilience. Through proactive leadership, the firm enables startups to avoid common reporting errors and prepare for long-term stability.

Helping Businesses Maximize Innovation Funding

In addition to executive-level financial support, K38 Consulting provides a valuable advantage for innovative companies through expert R&D tax credit services. Many startups and growth-stage companies qualify for substantial federal and state tax incentives but lack the documentation and tax expertise required to claim them accurately. Without proper guidance, businesses often miss out on significant annual savings that could support hiring, expansion, and product development.

K38 Consulting’s R&D specialists offer a streamlined process to identify qualifying research activities, gather necessary documentation, calculate credits, and prepare compliant submissions. Through its expanded program, the firm is helping companies unlock additional capital to reinvest in innovation—an essential advantage in competitive industries such as software development, biotech, engineering, and advanced manufacturing.

A Comprehensive Financial Partner for Growth-Stage Companies

As the business environment becomes more complex, executives increasingly recognize the value of integrated financial leadership solutions. K38 Consulting uniquely combines strategic CFO guidance, operational controller oversight, and specialized tax credit expertise into a cohesive approach that supports sustainable long-term growth. The firm’s model offers businesses a tailored solution that blends high-level strategy with hands-on execution.

Organizations leveraging outsourced CFO services and fractional leadership frequently see benefits such as stronger investor confidence, improved profitability, and operational clarity. With deep experience across industries, K38’s financial professionals provide the insights necessary for businesses to scale successfully while avoiding common pitfalls related to cash management, forecasting, and reporting.

Likewise, companies that adopt fractional CFO services gain access to experienced financial executives who help them prepare for fundraising, acquisitions, audits, system migrations, and other major milestones. This flexible engagement model ensures that organizations receive senior-level guidance exactly when they need it—without the commitment of full-time hiring.

Empowering Startups With Financial Expertise

Startups, in particular, benefit enormously from K38’s expanded offerings. The firm’s enhanced startup CFO services allow early-stage businesses to navigate investor discussions, secure capital, and build systems capable of supporting rapid expansion. Meanwhile, its strengthened controller services for startups ensure clean financials and rigorous financial controls that prepare companies for audits, due diligence reviews, and strategic growth.

For founders who are balancing product development, customer acquisition, and daily operations, having dedicated financial support provides clarity and peace of mind. With accurate reporting and strategic forecasts, startups can make smarter decisions and maintain strong financial discipline from the beginning.

Finally, access to specialized R&D tax credit services helps young companies conserve cash and extend runway—two critical factors in early-stage survival.

About K38 Consulting

K38 Consulting is a premier provider of outsourced financial leadership for high-growth startups, private equity-backed companies, and mid-market organizations. The firm specializes in CFO support, controller services, and tax credit consulting, offering flexible engagement models designed to meet the evolving needs of modern businesses. With a commitment to accuracy, insight, and strategic planning, K38 Consulting empowers companies to scale confidently and achieve long-term financial success.
