More than a million people dropped their Affordable Care Act coverage this year after Congress let enhanced pandemic-era subsidies expire. That number is likely to rise significantly as the year goes on. And for the first time in years, the number of insurers offering ACA plans has dropped, too. We'll dig in. Also on the show: the global wait for fertilizer and the challenges of the teen summer job market.

Welcome to episode 575 of The Food Blogger Pro Podcast! This week on the podcast, Bjork interviews Jenna Arend. Inside Pinch of Yum's Strategy for Email Growth and Content Distribution with Jenna Arend This week, Bjork sits down with Jenna Arend, General Manager of Pinch of Yum, as part of our ongoing GRO mini-series. In this episode, she shares how Pinch of Yum is navigating the biggest shifts in the digital landscape right now, from the decline of third-party cookies to the rise of AI, and why those changes have pushed the team to double down on email and Facebook as their most reliable channels. Jenna also gets into the strategy behind keeping a long-running food blog relevant and thriving — from improving older content to creating targeted resources like meal plans and freezer meals. She shares how GRO has helped streamline the process of converting social media followers into loyal email subscribers, and why building that direct line of communication with your audience matters more than ever. If you've been thinking about how to future-proof your content strategy, this one is worth a listen! Three episode takeaways: Adapt your strategy as the digital landscape shifts: With changes like the decline of third-party cookies and the rise of AI, relying solely on search traffic is risky. Pinch of Yum has leaned into email and Facebook as more stable, direct channels — and it's paying off. Don't overlook your existing content: Improving older posts can be just as valuable as creating new ones, especially for a long-running blog looking to maintain relevance and traffic in an ever-changing algorithm environment. Make it easy for followers to become subscribers: A clear call to action paired with genuinely helpful resources — like meal plans or freezer meal guides — gives your audience a real reason to join your email list, and tools like GRO can make that conversion process even smoother.

What if everything we've been taught about evolution is incomplete? For over a century, Darwin's theory of survival of the fittest has shaped how we understand life, health, competition, and progress. Compete. Adapt. Survive. It's been the dominant model for generations. In this conversation, Bruce unpacks the core ideas from his new book Beyond Darwin, where he argues that evolution is no longer being driven by competition, but by consciousness, cooperation, and environment.  We explore what Darwin got right, where the model starts to break down, why genes may not control us the way we've been taught, and how epigenetics changed everything.

Brad Wetherall: AI Search, Agentic AI, and How Corporations Must Adapt to Digital Discovery In this episode of Scouting for Growth, Sabine VanderLinden is joined by Brad Wetherall, former Director of Operations at Google and current COO of Esquire Digital, to unpack the transformative impact of AI on search engines and digital visibility.  The conversation explores how search is moving beyond traditional search engine optimization (SEO) to an era where AI agents, neural networks, and zero-click searches are redefining how brands are discovered, trusted, and chosen online.  Brad Wetherall outlines the emergence of "agentic AI" and the rise of the "frontier firm," where human expertise and AI collaborate to generate both authority and visibility in this new digital ecosystem. This episode offers actionable strategies for corporations, regulated industries, and innovators aiming to future-proof their digital presence and leverage the next chapter of AI-led search.   KEY TAKEAWAYS The traditional SEO playbook is now outdated. The critical question is no longer “How do I rank number one on Google?” but “What does AI say about my company?”  AI-generated summaries and answer engines sit at the top of results, often preventing users from ever clicking on links. To succeed, businesses—especially in highly regulated industries—must ensure their information is not just human-readable but also machine-readable, authoritative, and genuinely original. Websites should be built with both humans and AI in mind, making content easily digestible for AI agents. Content creation has become an interplay of art and science: AI values unique human perspective, expertise, and experience—simply generating generic, regurgitated answers will not suffice and may even have negative consequences, as Google's recent algorithm updates penalize unoriginal, AI-generated spam. Building trust, authority, and relevance is now an ongoing process. It's essential to invest in structured content, active reputation management, robust Google Business profiles, and credible third-party validation through PR. AI agents are becoming the intermediaries of trust, filtering which brands and content make it into these AI overviews. Organizations must become agent bosses, orchestrating both human and machine intelligence, and focusing on verifiable outcomes, not just website traffic. The early adopters who build their authority and distinct voice now will lead in this new landscape and avoid the scramble of playing catch-up.   BEST MOMENTS "The question is no longer how do I rank, but rather, what does AI say about my company?" — Sabine VanderLinden "AI is fundamentally changing the rules of digital discovery. We're seeing a once-in-a-generation shift equivalent to the disruption caused by the Internet itself." — Brad Wetherall "There is no easy button. There's no shortcut. It's not just about buying backlinks anymore—AI search requires a different blueprint." — Brad Wetherall "AI wants to know who you are. The authoritativeness and trust in your company or as an individual now matter more than ever." — Brad Wetherall "Clicks were always a flawed metric. Now, what matters is how many customers you get—not just traffic but outcome." — Brad Wetherall "The companies that do this well—who invest in website optimization, unique content, reputation, and public relations—will win the race. It's hard work, but it's how you'll stand out in an AI-driven world." — Brad Wetherall   ABOUT THE GUEST Brad Wetherall is the Chief Operating Officer at Esquire Digital and the best-selling author of AI and the Future of Search. He spent over a decade at Google, leading operations and shaping products like Google Business Profile, Google Shopping, Google Wallet, and Google Domains—helping over 100 million businesses to be discovered online.  Now at Esquire Digital, Brad applies his deep expertise to help companies adapt to the ever-evolving landscape of AI-driven search and digital visibility. His work focuses on demystifying the complex world of AI search and equipping organizations with the tools and strategies they need to remain competitive and authoritative as the digital economy transforms.   ABOUT THE HOST Sabine VanderLinden is a corporate strategist turned entrepreneur and the CEO of Alchemy Crew Ventures. She leads venture-client labs that help Fortune 500 companies adopt and scale cutting-edge technologies from global tech ventures. A builder of accelerators, investor, and co-editor of the bestseller The INSURTECH Book, Sabine is known for asking the uncomfortable questions—about AI governance, risk, and trust. On Scouting for Growth, she decodes how real growth happens—where capital, collaboration, and courage meet.

Tune in to our weekly LIVE Mastermind Q+A Podcast for expert advice, peer collaboration, and actionable insights on success in the Probate, Divorce, Late Mortgage/Pre-Foreclosure, and Aged Expired niches! Today's episode centers on the importance of consistency, accountability, and long-term follow-up as the foundation for success in probate, late mortgage, and other distressed-property lead niches. Much of the discussion focuses on treating prospecting as a non-negotiable appointment, emphasizing that consistent outreach, rather than perfect timing or techniques, is what ultimately creates results. The coaches share insights on overcoming common prospecting challenges, including maintaining momentum during slower seasons, staying motivated when calls go unanswered, and using accountability partners to remain focused on daily activities that drive business growth. A recurring theme throughout the episode is the value of relationship-building over transaction-chasing, with multiple examples illustrating how patience, service, and ongoing communication often lead to opportunities months or even years after the initial contact. The group also explores the growing late mortgage market, highlighting how reaching homeowners before a notice of default is filed can create opportunities to provide solutions, connect borrowers with financing resources, and position yourself as a trusted advisor rather than simply a buyer or agent. Several members share real-world success stories that reinforce the power of persistence, including how small acts of service, consistent follow-up, and genuine problem-solving can generate repeat business, referrals, and multiple transactions from a single relationship. Ultimately, the episode underscores that sustained success comes from showing up consistently, building strong professional networks, focusing on solutions instead of sales, and remaining committed to helping people through difficult transitions.  Key Takeaways:  - Consistent prospecting and follow-up create more opportunities than relying on perfect timing.  - Protect dedicated prospecting time and treat lead generation as a non-negotiable appointment.  - Accountability partners and coaching help maintain momentum and improve long-term results.  - Build a strong team of professionals (including mortgage brokers, attorneys, and other specialists) to provide more solutions for clients.  - Adapt scripts to fit your personality and communication style while focusing on authentic conversations.  - Small acts of service and relationship-building can lead to referrals, repeat business, and multiple transactions from a single client.  - Late mortgage leads present unique opportunities to help homeowners before they reach the highly competitive pre-foreclosure stage.  To learn more, visit https://www.AllTheLeads.com or call (844) 532-3369 to check how many leads are available in your market.   #RealEstateTraining #ProbateRealEstate #RealEstateInvesting #RealEstateProspectingPrevious episodes: AllTheLeads.com/probate-mastermindInterested in Leads?

Key Takeaways: Look at the Bigger Economic Picture: Successful investing today requires understanding entire economic systems, not just individual stocks or assets. The Dollar Faces Long-Term Challenges: Changes in the financial system are causing people to rethink how value is measured and stored beyond traditional currencies. History Still Teaches Important Lessons: Financial families and systems from history show the importance of investing in strong foundations and long-term infrastructure, not just short-term profits. Infrastructure Creates Real Value: Networks like energy, transportation, technology, and financial systems hold lasting value because they support how economies function. Adapt to Economic Shifts: Paying attention to liquidity, market changes, and larger economic trends can help investors position themselves more effectively during times of transition.   Chapters: Timestamp Summary 0:00 The Renaissance of Value Investing in a Modern Economy 4:24 Understanding the Dollar System's Stability Amid Global Financial Chaos 11:02 The Impact of Savings Premiums on Housing and Stock Markets 13:19 Understanding Money: Collateral, Credit, and Utility Explained 19:17 Valuing Real Estate and Assets Through Conservative Financial Strategies 26:23 Old Money Math and Network Valuation in Venture Capital 28:38 Navigating Financial Markets Through Value Investing and Bitcoin   Powered by Stone Hill Wealth Management   Social Media Handles    Follow Phillip Washington, Jr. on Instagram (@askphillip)   Subscribe to Wealth Building Made Simple newsletter https://www.wealthbuildingmadesimple.us/   Ready to turn your investing dreams into reality?

For years, enterprise AI conversations have centred on chatbots, search assistants, and tools that respond when asked, but that era is ending. A new class of AI system, one that reasons, plans, and takes autonomous action, is moving from the research lab into live production environments. For C-suite leaders, the question is no longer if AI will arrive in their organisations, but whether those organisations are ready for it.In a recent episode of Tech Transformed, host Christina Stathopoulos, founder of Dare to Data, sat down with Cathal McCarthy, Chief Executive Officer of Kore.ai, and Dan Leiva, founder of CXamplify and author of Amplified, to lay out what this shift actually means in practice and why most enterprises are less prepared than they think.Have a look at Artemis, the agent platform from Kore.ai, or you can book a demo.From AI Pilot Projects to ProductionMost large organisations have run AI pilots. Far fewer have moved those pilots into meaningful production at scale. McCarthy and Leiva argue that this gap is not primarily a technology problem. It is a governance and accountability problem.Conversational AI systems, which are the kind that answer questions or generate text, operate within a relatively contained risk envelope. A poorly worded response can be corrected, and a hallucinated answer can be flagged. The stakes, whilst real, are manageable.Agentic AI operates differently. These systems do not simply respond to prompts. They assess situations, make decisions, trigger actions, and in some cases instruct other AI agents or software systems to carry out tasks on their behalf. When something goes wrong in an agentic workflow, the consequences can cascade quickly, across processes, data, customer interactions, and operational outputs.This is why the move from pilot to production represents a fundamentally different risk conversation. As McCarthy puts it, "technology is now a decision-making actor." That framing has significant implications for how enterprises structure ownership, oversight, and accountability around their AI deployments.What Agentic AI Actually Means for Your OrganisationThe term “agentic AI” is often used loosely, so it is important to clarify what it actually means. An agentic system can:Break a complex goal down into sub-tasks without human prompting at each step.Use tools, APIs, databases, and other software to execute those tasks.Adapt its approach based on intermediate results.Operate across extended time horizons without continuous human input.This is meaningfully different from a large language model that generates a report when asked, or a copilot that suggests the next line of code. Agentic systems take initiative, which means it's both their value and their risk.Leiva's book, Amplified, explores how organisations can harness this capability without losing control of it. The central argument is that autonomy is not a binary switch; it is a dial. Organisations need to be deliberate about where they set that dial across use cases, risk profiles, and stages of deployment maturity.A Framework for Smarter AI DecisionsOne of the most practical tools discussed in the episode is the three-class decision model. Rather than treating all AI decisions as equivalent, it asks leaders to classify decisions by consequence and reversibility.The first class covers routine, low-stakes decisions where agentic systems can operate with high autonomy, like scheduling, data routing, and standard customer queries. The second class covers decisions with moderate consequences, where human review should be triggered before action is taken. The third class covers high-stakes decisions where human authority must remain the final step.Mapping AI deployments to this framework is the foundation of a defensible governance structure, one that can satisfy board scrutiny and regulatory requirements simultaneously. It also forces a critical question: who owns the decision about which class a given AI action falls into? That ownership question, the guests argue, is where most enterprise AI programmes currently have a blind spot.The Leadership ImperativeWith that said, the organisations that will benefit most from the agentic era are not necessarily those with the most sophisticated technology. As Leiva writes in Amplified, they are the ones who have thought most carefully about how to deploy that technology in a way that is accountable, adaptable, and aligned with how their people actually work.Boards are already asking harder questions about AI risk. Leaders who can answer them confidently because they have built the governance frameworks and defined the accountability structures will hold a material advantage. For leaders ready to move beyond the pilot stage, McCarthy and Leiva offer grounded guidance.

Debra Kasowski interviews Gina Martin, founder of Diverse Abilities Programs Inc., as she shares her lived experience and vision for creating more accessible, equitable, and empowering environments where people can see beyond limitations and discover new possibilities. In an IDEAL world, what if inclusion was not complicated, expensive, or intimidating, but practical, approachable, and possible everywhere? I am Gina Martin, founder of Diverse Abilities Programs Inc., educator, speaker, author, and creator of aDAPT programs (Disability Awareness Practical Teaching). My work is rooted in lived experience and focused on IDEAL principles (Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, Accessibility, and Language)Living with multiple disabilities, including blindness, ADHD, and epilepsy, I know firsthand that our biggest barriers are often not our disabilities themselves, but the attitudes, assumptions, and built environments around us. In 2016, I attended the Louisiana Center for the Blind, where I trained blindfolded for 9 months in a fully non-visual environment. That experience did not just change how I live, it transformed how I lead, teach, and advocate.Through my programs, workshops, and conversations, I help schools, workplaces, and communities move from uncomfortable to confident by making inclusion practical, human, and achievable. My goal is simple: to change how disabilities are viewed and understood, one conversation at a time. #diversity #abilities #inclusion Stay Connected with Gina Website Diverse Abilities Programs Inc.  http://diverseabilities.ca/ Facebook Diverse Abilities  https://www.facebook.com/DisabilityAwarenessConsultant Linkedin Gina Martin https://www.linkedin.com/in/gina-martin-4a1767254?utm_source=share&utm_campaign=share_via&utm_content=profile&utm_medium=ios_app Debra Kasowski is the charismatic podcast host of The Millionaire Woman Show, a 3X Best-Selling Author, Speaker, and Certified Executive Coach.

In this episode, Bethany sits down with culture expert Greg Hawks to unpack what it really takes to build an ownership culture that fuels engagement, accountability, and results. Greg breaks down why most workplace cultures drift into dysfunction (hint: it's not intentional) and how leaders can shift from overwhelmed managers to culture shapers. From the three workplace mindsets—owners, renters, and vandals—to the power of accountability and trust, this conversation is packed with practical leadership insight. You'll also hear why AI can't fix broken leadership—and what actually will. Key Takeaways: Why culture is the environment leaders intentionally (or unintentionally) create The 3 employee mindsets: owners, renters, and vandals How leaders can activate ownership instead of wishing for “better people” Why accountability is a progress partner, not punishment The role of trust, humility, and language in shaping culture Greg's 5 Unlocks for building a culture people love Why upgrading your “human operating system” matters more than AI tools

Great museums can drive tourism, and the Bay Area has no shortage of world class institutions. But museums everywhere are facing rising costs, declining fundraising support, and lower attendance.

Yet, public support for museums remains high, museums' clientele has steadily diversified and many museums are managing to do well. With summer around the corner, we'll check in on the state of Bay Area museums. Guests: Lori Fogarty, executive director, Oakland Museum of California Dr. Soyoung Lee, The Barbara Bass Bakar Director and CEO, Asian Art Museum Sarah Hotchkiss, senior editor, KQED Arts & Culture Laura Zander, chief growth and operating officer, Exploratorium Teddy Vollman, chapter president, CalAcademy Workers United Learn more about your ad choices.

If you're a software engineer right now, you likely feel like your world is changing overnight. We are writing half or less the amount of code that we wrote even a year ago, which represents a seismic, groundbreaking shift in our industry. For many of us, this career has always been engaging for deeply creative and intellectual reasons—and that excitement is still here. But our mental models of what it means to be a good engineer, and what it means to keep improving, have gone a little stale. In today's episode, I want to talk about a distinction that I believe will become the cornerstone mistake for seasoned engineers: confusing _practice_ with _adaptation_, and leaning on the wrong one at the worst possible moment. Two Surfaces Coming Into Contact: Picture your knowledge, skills, and toolset as one surface, and the actual state of the art as another. We've always known the surface area we could learn far exceeds what we can learn, which forces us to place bets on a learning strategy. What's changing is how fast that second surface is moving underneath us. Improvement by Practice vs. Improvement by Change: Practice is wielding what you've already adopted—smoothing out errors, building muscle memory, refining what you already know. Adaptation is fundamentally folding something new into your repertoire. Both are real forms of improvement, but they are not interchangeable. The Cornerstone Mistake for Senior Engineers: Later in your career, the time you spend adapting naturally goes down as you settle into practice. The biggest error I'm already watching engineers make is moving too quickly toward practice when the industry is loudly calling for adaptation instead. Inspect and Adapt—at the Right Altitude: Sprint retros were never really about getting marginally better at the thing you already do. The intent of "inspect and adapt" is to step up one level and examine the system. The trap is treating adaptation like a minor refinement—getting a little better at prompting—when it should mean asking whether you're thinking about prompting in the wrong way entirely. Question the Ratio, Not Just the Output: Real adaptation looks like asking whether you have the right mix of human and agent on a problem. Are you leaning on the agent for things you shouldn't, or failing to lean on it for the things you should? Have you genuinely thought about how sub-agents or an agent team are working the problem you're producing? A Spectrum, Not a Binary: On one end, you make micro-adjustments to your refinement process. On the other end of experimentation, you ask whether refinement—or even having engineers plan the work—is the right thing at all. The point isn't that practice is dead; it's that the industry is changing fast enough that the adaptive end of that spectrum deserves far more of your attention than it used to. Episode Homework: Take something you currently treat as a practice problem—"how do I refine tickets faster?"—and step up a level. Ask the adaptive version of the question instead: "Is refinement even the right thing anymore?"

I encourage you to throw away your subjective opinions and outdated Madison Avenue metrics and start focusing on where the actual attention is.

Dr. Henry Cloud is a clinical psychologist, leadership consultant, and New York Times bestselling author whose books have sold nearly 20 million copies worldwide. His titles include Boundaries, Integrity, Necessary Endings, and Trust. For three decades, he has worked with leaders, helping them close the gap between where they are and where they want to be. His newest book is Your Desired Future: The Five Essential Steps That Take You Where You Want to Go. Key Learnings Henry's five-step model for getting from here to there: Vision (clear and compelling) Talent (engaging the right people around you) Strategy and plan (how you'll win) Measurement and accountability (how you'll know) Fix and adapt (course-correcting in real time) At the age of 16, Henry's daughter asked, "Dad, how do people become singer-songwriters?" Henry went out to the garage and brought in his whiteboard. Lucy rolled her eyes. He gave her the five-step model. A couple years later, she published a song called "Crash and Learn" that got bought by CBS, the CW Network, and featured on Spotify and Apple Music. We tend to create departments and businesses in our own image. Of the five components, we're going to be good at two, maybe three. But the others still have to happen. That's where most leaders fail. Only humans can picture a desired future state. Finley is Henry's Doberman. When the FedEx guy comes to the door, she runs to it, and barks every time. Henry has never seen her stop and ask herself: "I wonder if that barking will help me get to where I want to be on Thursday." Most leaders are operating like Finley. Working hard. Doing what they've always done. Never stopping to ask if any of it is getting them where they want to be. You need an observing ego. The worst thing you can do is hit the accelerator harder when you're going down the wrong road and you don't even know where you're going. Tony Blair, while Prime Minister, spent half a day a week sitting by himself next to a pond in reflection. Warren Buffett spends an hour and a half a day at his desk staring out the window.  A revenue number is not a vision. The single worst vision statement Henry ever heard: "We want to be a $50 million company." It provides no clarity of what the company is going to do.   A vision is a compelling picture of a future state that makes people want to sacrifice for it. If your vision wouldn't inspire anyone to get out of bed early, it's a metric, not a vision. Will Guidara created a "dream maker" role at Eleven Madison Park. Their job: listen for clues from guests, then create a personalized, unexpected, memorable experience the guest will never forget and tell everyone about. Trust Fuels Investment. People invest in leaders who feel like they understand them. You're taking your team into a war. They've got to have deep trust with you. The first thing a leader has to do is develop deep, deep trust and let their team know that they understand the pressure they're under. "A vision can die without a plan or without people." Alan Mulally's weekly 7:00 AM Thursday meeting at Ford. Every VP had to give every project a red, yellow, or green status. When Mulally first arrived, the company was hemorrhaging money. Everyone was holding up green. He said: "How can you be holding up green when here's the reality over here? I need some reality in here." When one VP finally held up red, Mulally moved him to sit next to him. The wrong view of accountability is looking back to spank somebody for what they didn't do. The right view of accountability is a tool to make sure we reach our destination. You get what you create or what you allow. Henry was working with a global CEO whose team had cultural problems. Henry kept asking, "Why is that?" After a few rounds, the CEO finally said, "I guess I am ridiculously in charge, aren't I?" If you are the one actually in charge, you are ridiculously in charge. Either you're creating it, or you're allowing it. Accountability answers two questions: Did we do what we said we were going to do? If not, why not? Don't just tell people to "do better." Run a root cause analysis. Maybe they don't have the tools. Maybe you gave them competing goals. Maybe it's a leadership problem. If we executed perfectly, did we get the result we expected? If yes, pour on the gas. If no, go back up the model and adjust your strategy. Most leaders measure goals, not activities. Goals are lagging indicators. You can measure them after it's over. It's too late. Measure activities. Did we do this week what we said we were going to do? Micro drivers matter. Henry worked with a CEO who built multi-billions in valuation from a one-office company who was excellent with micro drivers. It's an atomic compression of the 80/20 rule. He knew the specific activities at each level of the business that actually moved the needle, and he made those objects of extreme awareness, focus, training, and deliberate practice. Peter Drucker said, "Nothing's worse than perfectly executing the wrong things." The number one thing the greatest leaders share: character. Not moral or ethical character. Your makeup as a person. How you're glued together. Integrity comes from the word that means wholeness. The great performers are drivers of tasks and relationships. The highest performers utilize coaching the most. Henry expected the disastrous leaders  to be the ones calling. It was the exact opposite. The ones crushing it are the ones who reach out. The struggling ones rarely do. The greatest leaders reverse the law of entropy: things get worse over time. But entropy only applies to a closed system. Open the system to a new energy source from the outside plus intelligence to organize it, and you can reverse it. That's what coaches, mentors, and advisors do. A leader is a closed system when the only voices they're ever listening to are the ones in their head. The greatest leaders embrace negative realities. They move toward problems. Not to nuke them, but to either resolve them or transform them into something better. Reflection Questions In how many areas of your life are you just barking at the door, working hard at activities without ever stopping to ask if any of it is getting you where you want to go? Is your current vision a metric, or a compelling picture of a future state that would make people want to sacrifice for it? Where in your life are you a closed system? Whose voices outside your head could open you up to new energy and intelligence?
