Podcasts about Ambition

What does it take to move from AI experimentation to real business impact? Recording during Google Cloud Summit London 2026 at Tobacco Dock, I had the opportunity to speak with Maureen Costello, Vice President for UKI and Sub-Saharan Africa at Google Cloud, about one of the biggest shifts currently taking place across technology and business. After years of discussion around generative AI, the focus is now turning toward agentic AI and how organizations can put these capabilities to work in practical, measurable ways. Maureen offered a fascinating view from the front line of AI adoption, sharing how businesses across financial services, retail, government, and other sectors are beginning to move beyond pilots and proof-of-concept projects. We discussed how AI is helping organizations improve customer experiences, increase productivity, strengthen decision-making, and create new opportunities for growth. From helping banks tackle financial crime and deliver smarter customer services to supporting government departments in modernizing public services, the conversation is filled with examples that bring the technology to life. We also explored why the UK is so well positioned for the next chapter of AI adoption. With world-class research, exceptional talent, and ambitious investment across both the public and private sectors, Maureen believes the UK has a genuine opportunity to remain at the forefront of AI innovation. She also explained why skills development, data readiness, security, governance, and trust will play such an important role as organizations begin introducing AI agents into everyday workflows. What I particularly enjoyed was discussing the human side of this transition. As AI becomes embedded into business operations, how should leaders prepare their teams? What separates organizations that achieve meaningful outcomes from those that struggle to move beyond the early excitement? And how can businesses strike the right balance between innovation, responsibility, and long-term value? Whether you're following the announcements from Google Cloud Summit London, building your own AI strategy, or simply trying to understand where this technology is heading next, this conversation offers valuable insight into one of the most talked-about topics in business today. What role do you think agentic AI will play inside your organization over the next 12 months, and are businesses finally moving from curiosity to meaningful adoption?

⚡️Click Here To Text Monique!This week, Monique sits down with Dr. Kemi Dole, a gynecologic oncologist, surgeon, and debut author, for a conversation that is equal parts education, confession, and wake-up call.Dr. Dole's new book, A Terrible Strength: The Hidden Crisis of the Black Womb and Your Survival Guide to Healing (Penguin Random House, May 2026), does what most medical books never do: it tells the truth in plain language, with warmth, and without talking down to you. In this episode, Monique shares how it changed her relationship to her own body, and Dr. Dole walks us through why so many Black women are bleeding too much, dismissed too quickly, and left to suffer in silence for far too long.They get into the real numbers behind heavy periods and anemia, what your bleeding is actually telling you, and why the medical system has been so slow to listen. Dr. Dole also opens up about her own reckoning, including missing her own endometriosis diagnosis until she was on the operating table.The conversation closes on the concept of womb sisterhood: the idea that healing this well-kept secret should not be a solo effort, and that the women in your life might be waiting for someone to simply ask.GUEST INFODr. Kemi Doll, physician, surgeon, advocate, career coach, and a double-board certified gynecologic oncologist and uterine cancer scientist |  Website | Book | Podcast |  InstagramGEMS DROPPED“I want women to have better gynecologic health. I don't want us to continue thinking about gynecologic health as though, “as long as it's not killing you, it's probably fine.” - Dr. Kemi Doll“​I ​didn't ​realize  ​how ​much ​I ​saw ​myself ​as ​a ​site ​of ​production, until ​you ​taught ​me ​that ​the ​unpregnant ​womb ​had ​its ​own ​life ​and ​role ​to ​play. ​And ​that ​my ​bleeding ​spoke ​an ​intricate ​language and ​that ​​my ​well ​being  ​was ​a ​part ​of ​that ​language.”  - Monique R, Shields“There's something very powerful about receiving the message so young that, “when you suffer, be quiet about it.” That message carries forward in a way that goes beyond gynecology and womb health. And that is what I want us to heal from.” - Dr. Kemi Doll“I invoke this concept of womb sisterhood, which means having one or two people in our lives we can share these things with so when you go to the doctor, you have someone who can come with you. you. ​There ​isn't ​embarrassment. ​There ​doesn't ​have ​to ​be ​silencing. ​These ​are ​such ​vulnerable appointments and having someone there who has your back can make a real difference. It also helps with accountability.” - Dr. Kemi Doll“Especially for those of us born with a womb or gendered as female, I believe this is one of the first ways we learn to silence our bodies and hide. We ​teach ​girls ​how ​to ​have ​a ​period ​that ​nobody ​knows ​about. ​​That's ​what ​we ​define ​as ​success.. ​This ​is ​how ​you ​hide ​it. ​This ​is ​how ​you ​very modestly ​go ​to ​the ​bathroom ​so ​nobody ​knows. ​And ​even ​when ​women ​talk ​about ​their ​most ​​embarrassing ​moments, ​it's ​always ​somebody ​basically ​found ​out ​I ​was ​on ​my ​period.” - Dr. Kemi Doll“This ​book ​has ​changed ​my ​relationship  ​to ​my ​body ​​entirely.” - Monique R.

She sold for $88M, almost bought a lake house she didn't want, and spent $340K on Knicks playoff tickets — then gave two away because it felt better.We're still surprised people did this but... 50+ founders worth $10M to $4B reveal their personal finances. Here it is: https://joinhampton.com/mw-wrWhy do we do this? Because if you're an aspirational person or someone who runs a business and is making money, it's incredibly challenging to figure out what to do. Information is impossible to find — and that's what we put together: the net worth reveal and why we do this podcast, Moneywise.Also, this podcast is made by Hampton, which is a community for founders doing on average $20 million a year in revenue. We saw a lot of these money conversations happening privately behind closed doors and we thought, "Why not, let's make it public." If you are a founder, apply here: https://joinhampton.com/mwAnne Mahlum built Solid Core from $175,000 of her own savings into an $88M exit. Two years later, her net worth is $115–120M, with $65M in public equities and $15M in a single stock alone. But the numbers are the least interesting thing that's happened since.After the sale, she secretly launched a second fitness company, had panic attacks she's never talked publicly about, shut the whole thing down, and spent two years in legal fallout. Then she had a baby, pulled an accepted lake house offer the morning after making it, and started forcing herself to spend $200K a month just to stop the money from piling up.This episode covers the full portfolio breakdown two years post-exit, why she's done with private investments, the Ambition story she's never told, what a baby did to how she thinks about money and time, and what she actually wants to be remembered for — which has nothing to do with net worth.Sponsors: Daily Body Coach - achieve your dream body with https://moneywise.dailybodycoach.com

Welcome to the Grief series - a collection of conversations about the grief woven throughout our lives with some extraordinary women bringing their raw, vulnerable stories to the mic. I hope you see yourself somewhere in these stories.…This specific episode is for the women in their 30s, 40s, 50s, and beyond who are entering a new season, physically, emotionally, and mentally. My guest, Bryn Daylor, brought her whole heart to this conversation and bared it all from her grief around physical changes, ambition shifts, and comparison as we age. TOPICS WE EXPLORE:The identity shift underneath every physical changeGrieving the attention you used to getAesthetic procedures, the pressure, the fear, and the nuanceLosing reckless abandonBuilding ambition from belief instead of survivalStarting a family later and doing the math on timeHow comparison kills your outputWhat shamelessly ambitious looks like when you stop performingTHE POINT:Aging is the grief that lives in the gap between who you were and who you're becoming, and the only way through it is to name it. ABOUT BRYN:Bryn Daylor helps women unmask themselves through creative expression so they can have the life and love they really want. She works with women to strip back layers of conditioning so that when they go to share themselves, whether through storytelling, writing a book, or putting a creative project into the world, they are doing it from the core of who they actually are.

Summary:Dr. Stephanie Wigner sits down with Amanda Francis for a conversation on self-belief, wealth, visibility, motherhood, and the identity required to create an extraordinary life. Amanda shares how she built success from nothing by continuing to see more for herself long before there was evidence it was possible. Together they unpack the role of environment, reinvention, personal truth, and why longevity comes from staying aligned rather than staying attached to a single business model. They also explore navigating ambition and motherhood, handling criticism at scale, and becoming a permission slip for others through authentic self-expression. This episode is a masterclass in trusting who you are and allowing that identity to shape the life you create.Want more Amanda Frances?

This week: While in New York for this year's Sustainable Apparel and Textiles USA, Innovation Forum's Niamh Campbell spoke with Jimmy Summers, vice-president for EHS and sustainability at Elevate Textiles. They talked about net zero ambitions in the apparel sector and why it's necessary to get away from the race-to-the-bottom approach that has become the norm.   Plus: World Cup emissions set to soar; SBTi's updated corporate net-zero standard; how to transform agricultural waste into carbon-negative products, in the news digest with Babette Pagès.    Host: Ian Welsh

Nearly every marketing leader has been told to "do more with AI" — and many of them are now sitting on a pile of pilots, a growing bill, and not much to show their CFO. So why is it that adoption of AI in marketing is so high, while the number of organizations actually getting predictable returns from it is so low?Agility requires the discipline to reimagine how work gets done before automating it — because pointing AI at a broken process just produces a faster broken process.Today, we're going to talk about:- Why so many enterprise AI initiatives stall between ambition and production, and what separates the organizations that succeed from the ones that quietly cancel their projects- How marketing and CX teams can move from disconnected experiments to a governed, agent-powered operating model that turns a brief into live 1:1 engagement- How to make the economics of AI predictable — so the people approving these investments can actually forecast both outcomes and costTo help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Don Schuerman, CTO & Head of Marketing at Pega.

Stuck on the “wrong mountain” in your legal career but unsure what to do next? In this episode, career coach and former lawyer Sherry Mason breaks down how ambitious attorneys can separate prestige from true fulfillment, avoid burnout, and plan a smart, strategic exit instead of a panic-fueled leap. In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Sherry Mason discuss: Ambition vs. prestige in legal careers Skills, situation, and identity as sources of dissatisfaction Burnout, autonomy, and control for lawyers How spending 20% of your time on aligned work drastically reduces burnout A five-step framework for planning a career transition   Key Takeaways: Many high-achieving lawyers climb career “mountains” chosen for them by others, only to realize later that prestige alone doesn't guarantee a fulfilling life. Career dissatisfaction typically stems from one of three areas (skills, situation, or identity) and it's critical to understand which one is actually driving your unhappiness before you make a big move. Burnout often reflects a loss of autonomy and misalignment between daily work and personal values, not just long hours or compensation.  Research suggests that if just 20% of your time is spent on the work that most lights you up, your risk of burnout can drop dramatically, even if the other 80% is less enjoyable. A thoughtful, stepwise approach of clarifying your criteria, forming hypotheses, testing them through conversations, reaching the right decision-makers, and weighing trade-offs can turn a vague urge to quit into a strategic, lower-risk transition.   "You can do anything, but you can't do everything, and a lot of times we work on climbing to the top of a mountain, and sometimes it is a mountain that someone else has told us would be the right mountain for us to climb.

Mei shouted, quickly rushing to support him.Zh: 这时，两个都明白了，情况已经很严重了。En: At that moment, both understood the situation had become quite serious.Zh: 美心里有了决心。En: Mei felt a determination settle within her.Zh: 她决定不再让梁继续这样下去。En: She decided not to let Liang continue this way.Zh: “梁，我们要休息。参加端午节庆典吧，En: "Liang, we need to rest. Let's join the Duanwu Jie celebrations.Zh: 那里有粽子和赛龙舟，放松一下。”En: There are zongzi and dragon boat races, a chance to relax."Zh: 梁疲惫地闭着眼睛，他慢慢地点头。En: Liang closed his eyes wearily and slowly nodded.Zh: 美的声音是一种慰藉。En: Mei's voice was a comfort.Zh: 在端午节的氛围中，他们找到了一个小村庄。En: Among the Duanwu Jie festivities, they found a small village.Zh: 那里的人们热情好客，邀请他们参加龙舟赛和品尝美味的粽子。En: The villagers were hospitable, inviting them to join the dragon boat races and taste the delicious zongzi.Zh: 梁终于感受到休息的快乐。En: Liang finally felt the joy of rest.Zh: 通过这次经历，梁明白了一个重要的道理：挑战自己固然重要，但更要学会倾听身体的声音，珍惜健康。En: Through this experience, Liang learned an important lesson: challenging oneself is important, but it's more crucial to listen to your body's signals and cherish health.Zh: 他对美说：“谢谢你美，以后我会更注意的。”En: He said to Mei, "Thank you, Mei, I'll be more mindful in the future."Zh: 美微笑，心里松了一口气。En: Mei smiled, feeling relieved.Zh: 长城依旧在阳光下延展，但此刻，梁和美决定一起欣赏节日的美好，一起分享这个特别的节日时光。En: The Great Wall still stretched out under the sun, but at this moment, Liang and Mei decided to enjoy the beauty of the festival together and share this special holiday time.

Next, Elon Musk's rocket company SpaceX became the largest IPO ever this week. The company has ambitious goals for space exploration — are they realistic? Fareed asks astrophysicist Janna Levin. Finally, according to a new poll, more than half of Americans believe AI could put them or someone in their household out of a job. But the labor market data shows that the panic may be premature.

Keep winning! Felecia Hatcher CEO of Black Ambition, the national entrepreneurial initiative founded by Grammy-winning artist Pharrell Williams. Black Ambition provides capital, mentorship, mental wellness support, and a nationally competitive platform for Black and Hispanic founders, particularly those from HBCUs and underserved communities. Throughout the conversation, Hatcher breaks down the mission of Black Ambition, how its competition works, success stories, the mentorship pipeline, and her personal entrepreneurial journey from being a self‑described “C student” to running a major national innovation fund. Purpose of the Interview 1. Introduce Black Ambition’s Mission and Impact To explain how Black Ambition funds, mentors, and accelerates Black and Hispanic founders, awarding millions in capital and building pathways to long-term entrepreneurial success. 2. Educate Entrepreneurs on How to Compete Successfully Hatcher breaks down the application process, common mistakes, and how to stand out in one of the nation’s most competitive entrepreneurial prize competitions. 3. Inspire Through Transparency and Personal Storytelling Her journey—from a C student to tech entrepreneur, to CEO working directly with Pharrell—models what perseverance and creativity can achieve. 4. Spread Awareness of Black Ambition Resources & Events She highlights opportunities like Demo Day, masterclasses, mentorship cohorts, and the Fundable Founders Forum. Key Takeaways 1. Black Ambition Creates “Unprecedented Access” for Black & Brown Founders Hatcher emphasizes the organization’s mission of closing opportunity gaps caused by misaligned mentorship and unequal access to funding.Black Ambition invests capital, provides structured mentorship, and connects entrepreneurs to world-class partners (e.g., Louis Vuitton). 2. Highly Competitive National Competition 2,500–3,000 applications annually Only 250 semifinalists Semifinalists enter a three‑month cohort with elite mentorship Top teams advance to Demo Day for capital awards and follow-on support Categories include HBCU, National Finalists, Top Prize, and People’s Choice.. Hatcher stresses: Success leaves clues.Many past winners share insights, host office hours, and guide new applicants. 3. The Process Itself Makes Founders Stronger Hatcher says repeated applications build clarity, sharpen pitches, and transform entrepreneurs—even if they don’t win the first time. She cites an example: Lawrence Phillips, founder of Green Book Global, who succeeded on his third try. 4. Holistic Approach: Mental Health & Wellness Along with capital and mentorship, Black Ambition offers mental-wellness support because entrepreneurship is emotionally taxing.Founders are encountering proximity to wealth and power for the first time, and need guidance on transparency, investor expectations, and emotional resilience. 5. Black Women Are Fastest-Growing Entrepreneurs—But Need Teams Hatcher notes that Black women lead in entrepreneurship but often operate without teams.Black Ambition does not invest in solopreneurs; founders must demonstrate team-building capacity to create economic multiplier effects in communities. 6.

What if ambition is not the problem—but the way we fuel it is? In this episode of Leveraging Thought Leadership, Peter Winick speaks with Janine Mathó, author of "Live Your Opus", about the Opus Way: a framework designed to help high achievers build healthy, meaningful careers without lowering their ambition. Janine challenges the old tradeoff between success and sustainability. Her message is clear. You do not need less ambition. You need the energy, systems, and self-awareness to support it. Her work helps leaders understand how they operate under pressure. It gives them practical language for stress, change, burnout, and performance. It also helps teams see where energy is being spent, where it is being drained, and how leadership behavior shapes culture. Janine also shares how her tools are evolving from individual development into organizational capability. Her diagnostics, change continuum, and Opus 8 energy framework help leaders identify what is happening beneath the surface. Why decisions stall. Why teams struggle. Why people overextend. And why performance cannot scale when energy is ignored. Peter and Janine explore what it takes to turn thought leadership into a business model. The book serves the individual. The advisory work targets the top of the house. The bigger opportunity is helping organizations build internal capacity, embed the frameworks, and eventually use the work without Janine in every room. This conversation is about more than well-being. It is about leadership strategy. It is about sustainable ambition. And it is about creating tools that help people perform under pressure without losing themselves in the process. Three Key Takeaways: • Ambition needs energy to sustain it. The episode reframes burnout not as a reason to lower goals, but as a signal that energy, pressure, and performance need to be managed differently. • Leaders need shared language for change and stress. Frameworks like the change continuum and energy archetypes help teams talk clearly about pressure, resistance, overextension, and how people respond differently to change. • Well-being is not separate from leadership strategy. Sustainable performance requires systems, tools, and leadership behaviors that build capacity across the organization—not just individual self-care. If this conversation about sustainable ambition, leadership energy, and building capacity under pressure resonated with you, check out our episode with Cassie Solomon. Cassie's work also lives at the intersection of change, leadership, and organizational performance—helping leaders understand why transformation stalls and what it takes to move people forward. Listen in to hear a complementary perspective on how organizations can build the systems, behaviors, and capabilities needed to make change stick.

"When are you getting married?" It's the question Georgie Tunny and Rob Mills get asked more than any other. Closely followed by: "What about babies?" After seven years together and four years engaged, the couple sit down with Kate Langbroek to talk about the future they're building together, why they're in no rush to follow anyone else's timeline, and the DM that started it all. From Georgie leaving Rob on read for months to the first coffee date that changed everything, this conversation is full of the stories you've probably never heard before. They talk about ambition, career setbacks, long engagements, mental health, life in the spotlight, Georgie's debut novel Over To You, Rob's dream role in Waitress, and why the Paris Hilton chapter of his life is one they're both quite happy to laugh about now. Mostly, though, this feels less like an interview and more like sitting at a table with three friends catching up on all the gossip. Georgie Tunny's debut novel, Over To You is available now.

Ambition can open doors, but your principles determine where you go from there. In today's episode, Ryan talks with entrepreneur and investor Codie Sanchez about how the four Stoic virtues of courage, discipline, justice, and wisdom can serve as a guide for building a successful career, leading well, and creating a life you actually want. They discuss why most professional risks are less dangerous than they seem, how to stop undervaluing your work, and what it means to pursue success without sacrificing your values, relationships, or reputation.

Dolly Parton Biography Flash a weekly Biography. Dolly Parton has been in the news this week for two verified developments that matter most for her long term biography: a health update that reassured fans, and the launch of a new business venture that extends her brand well beyond music. According to AOL, Parton said in a social media video that she is responding well to medicine and treatments and improving every day, which came after reports that she had postponed her upcoming Las Vegas concerts because of health challenges. According to Heatworld, that postponement has been framed as a break for recovery rather than a retirement move, but the exact medical issue has not been publicly detailed. According to BroadwayWorld, Knox News, KHAK, and MusicRow, Parton has also launched Cup of Ambition, a new premium coffee line created with Community Coffee. The coffee is tied to her 9 to 5 image and will make its public debut on June 24 at Dolly Partons Tennessean Travel Stop, her new travel center off I 65 south of Nashville. Knox News reports that fans will be able to sample it on opening day, and later this year it is expected to roll out nationwide in ground coffee and K Cup formats. That is the kind of business move that can outlast the news cycle because it deepens her footprint as a lifestyle brand owner, not just a performer. The most recent social media chatter has centered on that coffee launch, with posts circulating from entertainment and radio outlets sharing the announcement and teasing the opening day tasting event. Some social posts also keep recycling older Dolly performance clips and tribute material, but those are not new developments and should not be mistaken for fresh reporting. I did not find a major verified public appearance in the last 24 hours beyond the health related messaging and the business rollout coverage. Unconfirmed gossip is limited, but there is plenty of fan speculation online about whether the Vegas postponement signals bigger future changes to her touring schedule. At this point, that remains speculation, not confirmed reporting. The verified picture is simpler and more interesting: Dolly is managing her health, protecting her calendar, and pushing a fresh commercial chapter with a product launch that fits her brand perfectly.

Austin's counterculture is still the ethos. The next chapter is what gets built on top of it. Karen Blashek, the editor-in-chief of Austin Home Magazine, took over a 21-year-old design publication with no editorial background and turned it into one of the city's most consequential platforms for naming what's already happening. We ask why Austin's design talent operates one neighborhood away from its tech talent and neither knows the other exists. What the city is telling people and the cultural infrastructure need to make it all compound: storytellers, convening spaces, named districts, and a  patronage layer.Agenda0:00 Austin Home as civic editing4:22 Why Austin lives outside15:04 Block parties and Old Sixth21:02 Personality vs. values27:07 Ground floors as infrastructure32:10 The public space czar idea37:01 Why Austin is a design capital41:01 Naming districts that exist45:07 Three roles every ecosystem needs53:37 If you don't tell the story, someone else will58:08 The patronage gap1:03:37 Rising stars, the talent leak1:09:50 Tech and culture flywheel1:15:40 Naming what's already hereGuest Bio and LinksKaren BlashekAustin Home MagazineGroundup IdeasCities and Ambition by Paul GrahamThe City That Lingers by Ryan PuzyckiTokyo is Reinventing the Downtown by Making More Than One by Richard FloridaKaren Zabarsky Blashek is Editor-in-Chief of Austin Home Magazine, a Hearst publication covering the intersection of architecture, interiors, development, and culture in one of America's fastest-evolving cities.

For longtime observers of the legal profession, here's a headline we wouldn't have expected a few years ago: “The Eight-Figure Talent Race for Supreme Court Lawyers.” According to Ryan Barber and Erin Mulvaney of The Wall Street Journal (gift link), superstar SCOTUS advocates—including former solicitor general Elizabeth Prelogar, now at Cooley, and former acting SG Jeff Wall, who recently joined Gibson Dunn—are commanding pay packages previously unheard of for appellate practitioners.For such a small and elite group, the Supreme Court bar has seen a striking amount of movement in the past few weeks. In April, Wall led a four-partner group that decamped from Sullivan & Cromwell to Gibson. A few days later, another leading high-court litigator, Kannon Shanmugam, left Paul Weiss and joined Davis Polk & Wardwell, where he now heads the firm's new Supreme Court and appellate practice group.What explains this flurry of movement in the SCOTUS space? Why are top firms investing so heavily in Supreme Court and appellate practices? And what broader trends might this reflect?I could think of no better guest to explore these topics than Kannon Shanmugam. Not only did he recently go through the recruiting process as a lateral partner, but he's now going to be doing some hiring of his own, as he and Masha Hansford build out what Kannon hopes will be “the very best appellate practice in the country.”Thanks to Kannon for speaking with me, and congratulations to him and Masha on their move to Davis Polk.Show Notes:* Kannon Shanmugam bio, Davis Polk & Wardwell* Kannon K.

We're told that we can have it all if we time it right: build your career first, then start a family. But what does the medicine actually say? Amanda Goetz sits down with Dr. Lucky Sekhon, a double board-certified reproductive endocrinologist at RMA of New York and author of the USA Today bestseller The Lucky Egg. Dr. Lucky busts the biggest fertility myths (no, your fertility doesn't fall off a cliff at 35), explains why so-called "fertility checks" are mostly marketing, and breaks down the real difference between freezing eggs and freezing embryos. She also flips the script on a part of the story we tend to ignore—male-factor infertility, which accounts for roughly half of cases—and why family building is a team sport. Women shouldn't carry all the burden! It's an honest, science-forward, and surprisingly reassuring conversation about the fertility knowledge gap—and how it's okay to not have it all figured out in your 20s. . This episode gets into both the emotional and physical considerations of fertility treatment, and we think it's a worthwhile listen, regardless of what stage of life you might find yourself in—and even if you're undecided on the whole kids thing. Key Takeaways: Fertility doesn't fall off a cliff at 35. It's a gradual continuum, and many women conceive naturally into their 30s and 40s. AMH measures egg count, not fertility, and a low number shouldn't cause panic. Most pop-in or at-home "fertility checks" are marketing. No single test can predict whether you'll struggle to conceive. Start paying attention in your 20s by understanding your cycle and spotting red flags like PCOS or endometriosis. And pay attention to your family history. Freezing eggs and freezing embryos are different—eggs offer more flexibility and stay solely yours, while embryos give clearer answers but need both partners' sign-off. When choosing a clinic, ask about its actual thaw and IVF success rates, not just whether you like the doctor. Male-factor infertility is something we need to talk more about. Every day stress doesn't cause infertility, but insulin resistance is an under-recognized and treatable driver worth checking. (01:20) Intro (03:30) Dr. Lucky's personal journey (08:49) The misinformation problem and why absolutes are a red flag (10:22) The "cliff at 35" myth and the continuum of fertility (11:03) When to start paying attention (hint: your 20s) + birth control myths (15:28) Amanda's PCOS diagnosis (18:31) Family timing, privilege, and perfectionism (21:46) Feeling "behind," the knowledge gap, and giving yourself grace (24:56) Egg freezing: when it should enter the conversation (27:14) All about eggs vs. embryos  (32:12) Men and male-factor infertility (36:00) Rapid fire (44:00) Inside The Lucky Egg GUEST LINKS Read The Lucky Egg https://www.instagram.com/lucky.sekhon/  https://theluckyegg.com/  FOLLOW THE PODCAST IG: https://www.instagram.com/girlboss/ | TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@girlboss  Amanda Goetz: https://www.instagram.com/theamandagoetz/  https://girlboss.com/pages/ambition-2-0-podcast  SIGN UP  Subscribe to the Girlboss Daily newsletter: https://newsletter.girlboss.com/  For all other Girlboss links: https://linkin.bio/girlboss/ ABOUT AMBITION 2.0  Powered by Girlboss, Ambition 2.0 is a podcast where we'll be exploring what it really means to "have it all" in work, family, identity, and self… and if it's actually worth it.

Guest host Joe Cirincione interviews nuclear historian Alex Wellerstein about his book The Most Awful Responsibility: Truman and the Secret Struggle for Control of the Atomic Age, revisiting the run-up to Hiroshima and Nagasaki and the postwar fight between nuclear hawks and doves over who should control nuclear weapons. Wellerstein argues there was no single “decision” to use the bomb—plans were already underway under military control, Truman was largely excluded and poorly briefed, and he may not have known a second bomb was coming. After Nagasaki, Truman asserted presidential control to halt further use, motivated by horror at civilian casualties. They discuss debates over whether the bombings ended the war and Truman's moral framing of nuclear weapons. The events of the past have clear echoes in today's nuclear policy debates, and the dispute over Iran's nuclear program and who is telling the truth about Iran's nuclear ambitions.You can check out his Nuke Map at nuclearsecrecy.com/nukemap/.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

270 - Have you ever felt like everyone else is moving ahead while you're just trying to keep up? Recently, I found myself overwhelmed by the realities of working motherhood—juggling childcare, household responsibilities, work, business goals, and the never-ending mental load that comes with trying to do it all. But beneath the stress was a deeper fear: Am I falling behind? In this episode, I share a mindset shift and biblical perspective that brought me peace, renewed my energy, and reminded me that God is not limited by my timeline. We'll talk about the tension many working moms face between ambition and motherhood, trusting God's timing, and why this season may not be delaying your future, it may actually be preparing you for it. If you've ever felt torn between the work you're called to do and the people you're called to love, this episode is for you. What if you're not falling behind? What if you're being formed?

What happens when you achieve the success you thought you wanted… and still don't feel fulfilled? In this episode, I'm joined by Meghan French Dunbar, founder of Conscious Company Magazine and author of This Isn't Working, for a conversation about ambition, burnout, identity, and what it means to build a successful life without sacrificing yourself in the process. After founding and scaling a nationally recognized media company, interviewing more than 1,000 business leaders, and leading as CEO for years, Meghan found herself burned out, depleted, and questioning everything. What followed was a period of deep reflection that ultimately reshaped how she thinks about leadership, success, and personal fulfillment. In this conversation, we talk about: Why external success doesn't always create internal fulfillment The difference between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation How ambition can become tangled with identity and self-worth The hidden costs of chronic self-sacrifice and overachievement What sustainable leadership actually looks like in practice The workplace models and leadership philosophies challenging traditional definitions of success How to build a career, company, and life that support both performance and well-being Meghan also shares insights from her book, This Isn't Working, and why more leaders are questioning old definitions of achievement in search of something more sustainable.

From the publisher: "On July 12th, 1776, Captain James Cook, already lionized as the greatest explorer in British history, set off on his third voyage in his ship the HMS Resolution. Two-and-a-half years later, on a beach on the island of Hawaii, Cook was killed in a conflict with native Hawaiians. How did Cook, who was unique among captains for his respect for Indigenous peoples and cultures, come to that fatal moment?Hampton Sides' bravura account of Cook's last journey both wrestles with Cook's legacy and provides a thrilling narrative of the titanic efforts and continual danger that characterized exploration in the 1700s. Cook was renowned for his peerless seamanship, his humane leadership, and his dedication to science. On previous expeditions, Cook mapped huge swaths of the Pacific, including the east coast of Australia, and initiated first European contact with numerous peoples. He treated his crew well and endeavored to learn about the societies he encountered with curiosity and without judgment.Yet something was different on this last voyage. Cook became mercurial, resorting to the lash to enforce discipline, and led his two vessels into danger time and again. Uncharacteristically, he ordered violent retaliation for perceived theft on the part of native peoples. This may have had something to do with his secret orders, which were to chart and claim lands before Britain's imperial rivals could, and to discover the fabled Northwest Passage. Whatever Cook's intentions, his scientific efforts were the sharp edge of the colonial sword, and the ultimate effects of first contact were catastrophic for Indigenous people around the world. The tensions between Cook's overt and covert missions came to a head on the shores of Hawaii. His first landing there was harmonious, but when Cook returned after mapping the coast of the Pacific Northwest and Alaska, his exploitative treatment of the Hawaiians led to the fatal encounter.At once a ferociously-paced story of adventure on the high seas and a searching examination of the complexities and consequences of the Age of Exploration, THE WIDE WIDE SEA is a major work from one of our finest narrative nonfiction writers."Hampton Sides' website can be found at https://hamptonsides.com/AxelbankHistory.com is designed by https://www.ellieclairedesigns.com/Axelbank Reports History and Today" can be found on social media at https://twitter.com/axelbankhistoryhttps://instagram.com/axelbankhistoryhttps://facebook.com/axelbankhistory

Andrew Bayliss explores the aftermath of Sparta's victory, noting that Lysander's immense power and ambition ultimately led to his death during a failed siege. Sparta's dominance eventually collapsed at the Battle of Leuctra due to a dwindling citizen population, reducing the once-mighty superpower to a minor village.1890 VOYAGERS
