Zwei Pauls, eine Mission: KI neu denken. In dieser Episode spricht Benjamin von Paul's Job mit Paul Wagner von Teamwork über den echten Einsatz von agentischer KI in Unternehmen. Was kann ein KI-Agent wie „Paul“ wirklich? Welche Prozesse lassen sich automatisieren – und was bleibt (vorerst) menschlich? Die beiden teilen ihre Erfahrungen aus der Praxis, sprechen über Fehlerkultur, Systemgrenzen und warum echtes KI-Produktdesign viel mehr mit Neugier und Iteration zu tun hat als mit bloßer Technik. Eine ehrliche, tiefgründige Folge für alle, die Agenten nicht nur als Buzzword sehen.Mehr zu Paul und Teamwork:https://www.linkedin.com/in/paul-wagner-457341280/https://www.linkedin.com/company/teamwork-instore-services-gmbh/https://www.teamwork-germany.com/unsere-leistungen/Paul's Job:⁠https://paulsjob.ai/⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/paulsjob/⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/company/paulsjob/⁠https://www.youtube.com/@paulsjob/featuredHR Visionaries International:https://open.spotify.com/show/2uwo54DBhRdeVdmqKocnXT?si=54383b1a24af4ac2https://podcasts.apple.com/de/podcast/hr-visionaries-international/id1711042208https://www.youtube.com/@paulsjob/featured

In this vulnerable and unfiltered episode, I sit down with my mom to talk about something many women go through, but few talk about openly: midlife weight gain, hormonal changes, and starting a GLP-1. After gaining 55 pounds with no major lifestyle changes and struggling with symptoms like fatigue, hot flashes, anxiety, and loss of muscle, my mom found herself at a health crossroads. We walk through the emotional and physical toll this took, her experience going off hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and what finally led her to try tirzepatide (a GLP-1 medication similar to Ozempic). This episode isn't just about weight loss, it's about reclaiming your life, making empowered health choices, and what happens when you start advocating for your own wellness. We also talk anxiety, alcohol, sleep, family dynamics, and yes, why my mom is already seeing mental clarity within days of her first dose. If your mom (or you!) is silently dealing with hormone chaos, frustrating weight gain, or health confusion, this episode will make you feel seen, supported, and informed. 00:00 Life updates, small talk & avocado toast inflation 04:00 My mom's health scare & going off HRT 07:00 Symptoms spiral after stopping hormone therapy 10:00 Shocking lab results: cholesterol, blood sugar & hormone crash 12:00 The decision to start tirzepatide (Ozempic-like medication) 15:00 What happened after her first dose (mental clarity, food noise, no cravings) 18:00 My evolving opinion on Ozempic 20:00 Women's hormones are misunderstood—here's what we've learned 24:00 Monitoring with InBody scans, strength training, and muscle preservation 27:00 Our honest feelings on weight, lifestyle changes & identity 33:00 Why I might never drink alcohol again (full breakdown) 44:00 10 facts that made me rethink alcohol for good 48:00 Newsletter updates & book recs from my mom 54:00 What we're reading this summer 56:00 Travel talk & life reflections 59:00 Wrapping up + dinner's ready!

Send us a textWhat happens when you have all the external markers of success but feel profoundly unhappy? Heather Stewart faced this reality as a senior director of finance with the degree, the job, and the lifestyle that society deemed successful—yet something was missing. In a courageous act of self-reclamation, she quit her corporate position, ended her marriage, sold her house, and embarked on a three-month journey to India that would forever alter her perspective on life.Her time in India revealed a stark contrast between Western materialism and community-centered values, leading to a profound realization: "I am a complete person." This awareness freed her from the constant seeking that characterizes much of modern existence. Upon returning to Canada, Heather transformed her career path, opening a yoga studio and becoming a massage therapist to help others reconnect with their physical wellness after experiencing the cerebral nature of corporate life.The universe wasn't finished with Heather's transformation, however. A stroke in 2021 became what she calls "the gift of a three-day silent retreat" in the ER, forcing her to confront a powerful truth—while she was moving in the right direction, she was "playing too small." This health crisis birthed her Thriving Life Method, a holistic approach that harmonizes physical, emotional, spiritual, occupational, and financial wellbeing.Throughout our conversation, Heather challenges popular notions about manifestation, emphasizing that visualization alone isn't enough—we must take ownership and action. "If you want to decide that you need a different life," she explains, "I had to stand up for myself, use my voice, and make something different happen." This perspective offers a refreshing alternative to passive manifestation practices that often leave people frustrated when results don't materialize.Whether you're feeling stuck in a career that no longer serves you, struggling to process emotions authentically, or seeking to create meaningful change in your life, Heather's journey demonstrates the transformative power of taking ownership. By reclaiming responsibility for our choices and circumstances, we unlock our capacity to manifest the reality we truly desire.ContSupport the show

Exploring the myths of hustle culture, the hidden cost of compartmentalizing personal and professional life, and the power of building a purpose-driven career that doesn't sacrifice your well-being.We also talk about:

What happens when inflation outpaces income, and how can real estate investors adapt before the breaking point hits?   In this thought-provoking episode, Angel welcomes Rich Neuharth and Moses Lucero to explore the often-overlooked emotional and strategic aspects of underwriting in a volatile economic landscape. As inflation surges and affordability concerns loom, this conversation unpacks how mindset, data, and creativity intertwine when making investment decisions. Rich and Moses open up about their struggles with rejection, finding the right mentors, and reframing failure as a learning opportunity.     [00:01 - 04:00] When Prices Outpace Paychecks Why inflation is increasingly unsustainable for the average household. The importance of anticipating economic tipping points when underwriting deals. How investors might need to prepare for a shift toward shared housing and resource consolidation.   [04:01 - 08:46] Rents, Rates, and Reckonings What rent control discussions in red states signal about the changing political landscape. How rising interest rates historically trigger regulatory intervention and potential recessions. The significance of learning from past economic cycles like the Great Depression and 2008 crisis.   [08:47 - 12:13] When Numbers Feel Like a Wall Why financial literacy barriers often stem from mindset blocks, not ability. The need to recognize and confront personal narratives that limit learning. How connection with the right teacher can reignite passion for difficult topics.   [12:14 - 16:49] Resets, Rejections, and Reality Checks How to emotionally recover from rejection and continue calling, underwriting, or analyzing deals. The importance of taking a break to reset instead of internalizing repeated failure. Why even the most seasoned professionals question their worth—and how to move past it.   [16:20 - 20:56] Leveling Up Through Curiosity and Collaboration How underwriters "gear up" by finding hidden value in overlooked properties. Why passion, community, and creativity are crucial tools for value investors. The significance of recognizing shared struggles, even when operating in different lanes of a business.     Connect with Rich:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/realmindsetrich   Connect with Moses:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/moses-lucero-9026b220b/     Key Quotes:   “It's not how much you are learning, it's about who you're learning it from.” - Moses Lucero   “You're going to die and get kicked off the horse more times than you're gonna win—but let me tell you, the wins are real good.” - Rich Neuharth     Visit sponsorcloud.io/contact today and unlock $2,000 of free services exclusively for REI Rocks community members!
