Podcasts about Ambition

I want to take you inside my favorite yoga studio in Santa Barbara. It's called Yoga Soup, and it's a giant, grounding mix of movement, actual nutrient-dense soup in a crockpot, fresh fruit from local trees, and community.My husband Rob and I practice there a few times a week, and one of our favorite instructors—who is also a middle school English teacher—starts every class by reading a poem. She weaves its themes throughout our practice and reads it again at the end.Now, I'll be honest with you: these classes are often equal parts healing and deeply unsettling for me. Why? Because I'm in there without a notebook or phone, frantically trying to memorize brilliant lines so I don't lose them!A few weeks ago, she read a poem by Mary Oliver called “Today” from her 2012 collection A Thousand Mornings. One line hit me like a bolt of lightning:“Today I'm flying low, and I'm not saying a word. / I'm letting all the voodoos of ambition sleep.”I spent the rest of the class scrambling to hold onto that concept because the “voodoos of ambition” are my constant companions. They're the noisy, bossy, pushy engine behind everything I make, write, and build. They drive the desire to “play big.” And if you're listening to this podcast, I bet your voodoos are pretty loud, too.But as I wrestled with Mary Oliver's words, a new thought took root: What would happen if we actually let those voodoos take a day off?In this Write Big session, I'm reflecting on:* The double-edged sword of high ambition and why we need energy to drive big work.* Why scrambling to capture every thought is just another “voodoo” in disguise.* How giving your ambition a rest—letting it sink into child's pose—is actually what allows it to wake up re-energized and full of life.Writing big requires big energy, but it also requires rest. This week, I'm offering you a permission slip to fly low, be quiet as a feather, and let your ambition sleep for a little while.Until next time, stop playing small and write like it matters!#AmWriting is a reader-supported publication.

This is a Write Big session, where I'm bringing you short episodes about the mindset shifts that help you stop playing small and write like it matters.Today, I'm talking about ambition, and specifically I'm talking about some thoughts on the poet Mary Oliver and desire And I want to tell you a story about my yoga studio and a particular yoga teacher that I adore. So my yoga studio in Santa Barbara, California, is called Yoga Soup, and what its name implies is that there's all different kinds of things that happen in this space.There's all different kinds of yoga and all different kinds of teachers. It's a giant mix of different kinds of ways of doing yoga, and [00:01:00] there's also actual soup. In the front room of the studio, there are couches and a coffee table and benches, and there's a Crockpot of soup. It's made by a local soup kitchen that makes just killer local nutrient-dense soup.And oftentimes there's bread from the local bakery, and you can put $5 or $10 in the tip jar and sit down and have a bowl of warm soup, even on a warm day, which we often have here in Santa Barbara. There also tends to be bowls of things from the farmers market or from people's trees. So there might be oranges or carrots or strawberries or something there that you can have.And one of my practices is I love to come out of yoga class and sit down and have a carrot. It always makes me feel rooted in a very specific and physical way and grounded. So that's the vibe of my yoga studio. And I practice yoga with my husband. It's a thing that we do together, that we love to do together, and we try to do two or [00:02:00] three times a week.Rob actually goes to yoga more than I do, and he is really good at it, and he's really strong. And I know we're not supposed to compare, but I do. But regardless, I love going with him and practicing alongside of him. And one of our favorite teachers is also a middle school English teacher. And at the start of every one of her yoga classes, she reads a poem, and then she weaves the lessons of that poem throughout the yoga practice.So while you're doing a pose or transitioning from one pose to another, or in your resting pose, she'll talk about words or phrases or ideas from the poem, and then she usually reads it again at the end. And I, of course, love this so much because words and poems and weaving them all into movement, it just feels so healing and powerful, and I just adore it.And I'm not alone. Her classes are always packed with all different kinds of people, and you have to get there early, and you have to bring your patience [00:03:00] because there's so many people clamoring for this specific kind of experience. But oftentimes this class is also really hard for me because the teacher will say something in the middle that I wanna remember, and I'm in there without paper and I'm without my phone, and I feel sort of quite naked ‘cause I'm like, “I gotta write this down.I gotta remember what she said,” because I'm not trusting that she'll remember what she said if I went up to her after class and said, “What was it that you said about that thing?” And I'm not sure that I will remember correctly. And so I kind of spend the whole class in this panic about remembering whatever it was that she said.I certainly am not gonna not try to remember. That's just not in my DNA. So I often have somewhat unsettling experiences in this class as well. And a few weeks ago, the instructor shared a Mary Oliver poem, and I happen to know that Mary Oliver is one of her favorite poets. She often [00:04:00] reads things from her.And I've read a lot of Mary Oliver, and I recognize a lot of the poems. But on this one day, this poem that she read, I had never heard of, and I couldn't believe I'd never heard of it because it just blew my mind. I found out after class, my Googling told me that this poem is from the book A Thousand Mornings, which was published in 2012, and the poem is called Today Today I'm flying low, and I'm not saying a word.I'm letting all the voodoos of ambition sleep. The world goes on as it must, the bees in the garden rumbling a little, the fish leaping, the gnats getting eaten, and so forth. But I'm taking the day off, quiet as a feather. I hardly move, though really I'm traveling a terrific distance. Stillness, one of the doors into the temple.So there I am in yoga, scrambling to remember the line, letting all the voodoosof ambition sleep. Because that [00:05:00] line, that concept, I was just like, “What? The voodoos?” I mean, trying to remember the line of a poem while doing yoga is one of those voodoos. The voodoos of ambition are all up in my brain, and they're all over my body and my gut.They just are my constant companion. And the second I heard that line, I was like, “Ugh, yes, I love the voodoos of ambition.” They're what drive me and propel me and keep me coming up with ideas and things I wanna write and make and do. They are what is the engine of writing big and playing big. And there's so much that I wanna make and write and do in the world.And I feel like the voodoos of ambition get it. They're dancing, and they're cheering and propelling me on. But of course, I also find them hard to deal with because you know, the voodoos are so noisy. They're so bossy. They're so pushy and voodooy. And as soon as I heard that [00:06:00] poem, and as soon as I got home and studied it and looked at it again, I thought, “Gosh, what would it be like to not say a word and let the voodoos of ambition sleep?”I don't know, and I don't know if I want to know. Flying low is not my natural way of being in the world. And when I thought about it, though, I thought, “You know, I bet those voodoos get tired.” And I imagine that they would love some time off, and that that would be for them like time to do yoga and lay down in child's pose and just feel the support of the earth.And when I imagined that, I imagined that that sleep would make those voodoos feel full of energy and alive when they got up to do their work again. And so I thought, “Okay, I'm gonna practice this, that tomorrow maybe I'll just take a day off and try to be quiet as a feather.” And my reflection for you this week is to remember that writing [00:07:00] big, playing big, trying to do big things in the world absolutely requires some big energy and some up energy, and it requires some voodoos of ambition for sure.But there's also a place in this work of letting those voodoos have a little rest and letting them re-energize and letting them come back to life when they're ready. I thought it was a good thing for us all just to remember. Until next time, stop playing small and write like it matters.The hashtag amwriting podcast is produced by Andrew Perilla.

How many women are waiting for the right moment to pursue an ambition they already know they're capable of?This episode is sponsored by Deel.Hire, manage and pay – anyone, anywhere: https://www.deel.com/nickdayhr/HR leadership often demands compromise. In this episode of @thehrldpodcast Nick Day sits down with Stanislava Susla, CEO of XperienceHR, who stepped into the role while four months pregnant and refused to choose between ambition, motherhood, and building a global payroll technology company. From her NGO work supporting Ukrainian refugees to scaling a mission-driven business, Stanislava brings a rare, deeply personal perspective on what it really takes to lead, grow, and show up fully without false choices.Together, Nick and Stanislava unpack why so many parents, mothers especially, wait for the "right time" to chase their goals, and why that wait is so often driven by fear rather than a genuine lack of readiness.This conversation unpacks how Stanislava normalized working through pregnancy and early motherhood, and why focus and efficiency often sharpen rather than suffer under real constraints. Nick and Stanislava also discuss the difference between fear and wisdom in decision-making, and why quality time, not quantity of time, forms the real foundation of confident parenting.They also explore how psychological safety and honest feedback shape company culture, and why manipulation has no place in modern leadership. The discussion highlights the importance of boundaries between work and family life, and what separates healthy leadership from unhealthy leadership in both business and the wider world.In an era where ambition and caregiving are still too often treated as competing identities, this episode examines what it actually takes for working parents, and mothers in particular, to build both a career and a family without sacrificing either.A must-listen for HR leaders, working parents, entrepreneurs, and anyone who has ever waited for the "right time" to pursue something they already know they're capable of doing.Enjoyed this?

What if growing in your career doesn't require choosing between ambition and humility? In this special BOLDLY Breakout Spotlight episode of the Moving Forward Podcast, Melissa Harrison sits down with Ellie Nieves, a leadership coach, public policy professional, and author of The Career Playbook for Christian Women, for a practical conversation about pursuing professional growth while remaining grounded in faith. Ellie shares that becoming a Christian didn't make her ambition disappear. Instead, it invited her to examine what was driving it. As she explains, "He wasn't calling me to be less ambitious, he was asking me to filter my ambition through my faith." That shift helped her see career growth as an opportunity to use her gifts, serve others, and glorify God. For the woman considering a bigger role or a new opportunity, Ellie offers encouragement: you don't have to know everything before taking a step forward. Recognize the experience you already bring and trust your ability to learn. She also explores how remembering God's purpose for your presence in the workplace can help you respond to feelings of inadequacy. The conversation becomes personal as Ellie recalls a season when she and her husband were both laid off shortly after moving into a new home. While the uncertainty was real, that season also strengthened their marriage and gave her the vision to launch her coaching business. She encourages women navigating setbacks to make room for grief, reflection, and prayer—and to ask God what He would have them do next. Ellie also challenges the assumption that excellent work will always speak for itself. Communicating your contributions can be done with humility. She shares a simple practice: keep a record of accomplishments and positive feedback so you can clearly explain both your work and its impact. Together, Melissa and Ellie explore how influence develops through credibility, meaningful relationships, and an understanding of how an organization works. Ellie explains the difference between mentors who offer guidance and sponsors who advocate for opportunities—and why following through on advice helps build trust. This conversation is about becoming more intentional in your career: bringing your ambitions before God, recognizing the value you contribute, and taking your next step with faith and confidence. In this episode, we get into: Bring your ambition before God. Examine your motives and pursue growth from a place of purpose. Communicate your value with humility. Keep track of your accomplishments and share the impact of your work. Influence grows through relationships and credibility. Build meaningful connections, seek guidance, and follow through. Ellie also shares how community has supported her through the responsibilities of work, leadership, and caring for an aging parent. Through 4word's Executive Women's Forum in San Diego and the DC executive cohort, she has found space to rest, receive encouragement, and connect with women navigating similar experiences. For the woman who feels stuck, Ellie recommends beginning with quiet reflection: sit with your Bible and a journal, invite God into the process, and ask what one step you can take. Her encouragement is clear: "She doesn't have to sit on the sidelines of her own career." 4word is excited to welcome Ellie to BOLDLY this October in Dallas, where her breakout session will explore building influence and navigating workplace dynamics from a godly perspective.

Almost £678 million in revenue, yet Manchester United are still reporting a £40 million loss. Where is the money going and what does it mean for the club's future? The Athletic's Laurie Whitwell joins Rio Ferdinand and Ste on The Debrief to unpack United's finances, from the lasting cost of the Glazers' takeover to the decisions behind this summer's transfer budget. Could United have spent more? Why were key positions left unfilled? And how do plans for a new stadium and a 2028 title challenge fit with the financial picture? There's specific analysis on how the financial capability of the club is affected by the ongoing cost of servicing the debt from the Glazers to purchase Manchester United in 2003 - and how that affects the club in the next few transfer windows. Rio also reflects on how the players understood the takeover at the time and the only transfer window that made him question the club's direction. An in-depth discussion about ownership, ambition and what it will take to build a Manchester United capable of competing consistently again. What's the one question you want United's owners to answer? Let us know in the comments. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Physician Women Rising: Strategic Leadership, Visibility, and Sponsorship for Women in MedicineChristine interviews Dr. Shannon Udovic Constant, a San Francisco pediatrician and immediate past president of the largest state medical association and only the fifth woman to hold the role in over 160 years, about advancing women physicians into leadership. Dr. Constant shares a childhood story from her daughter about “boy money,” illustrating how ambition and leadership are gendered, and explains how this shaped her drive to expand women's representation in executive rooms. Dr. Constant describes launching Physician Women Rising as coaching and education, including a weekly Substack newsletter, to teach leadership skills she learned without a roadmap. Key themes include being strategic about career direction, making impact visible, stating ambitions, and building sponsorship (distinct from mentorship) through purposeful conversations. She discusses the narrower range of acceptable leadership behaviors for women and urges intentional positioning to improve healthcare decisions.

When Masculine Rules Stop Helping Keep the Value. Loosen the Rule. A lot of the rules men inherit about masculinity were not created to hurt us. Be strong. Handle it yourself. Provide. Do not show fear. Never back down. Most of those rules point toward something valuable: courage, competence, responsibility, dignity, loyalty, protection, or belonging. The problem begins when a useful value becomes a rigid rule. Strength can become emotional hiding. Independence can become isolation. Providing can become proof of worth. Dignity can turn into needing to win. So this is not a conversation about rejecting masculinity. It is about asking a better question: Which masculine rules still serve us, and which ones have become too rigid? Why These Rules Stick With Men Masculine rules come from a lot of places. Our fathers. Mothers. Coaches. Friends. Churches. Workplaces. Sports. Media. Relationships. Regional culture. Family expectations. And often, following those rules worked. They may have helped us fit in, avoid ridicule, gain respect, feel competent, or stay connected to the people around us. Sometimes the rule was really about belonging. A boy may learn very early that certain parts of him are acceptable and others are not. Maybe strength gets rewarded while fear gets mocked. Maybe achievement gets noticed while uncertainty gets ignored. Maybe being self-sufficient earns respect while needing help feels embarrassing. Over time, those lessons can become an invisible audience we carry with us. Even when no one is actively judging us, we can still feel like we are being graded on whether we are "man enough." That raises an important question: When does a useful value stop being a choice and start becoming a requirement? And maybe another: What masculine rule made sense for us at 18 that needs to look different at 30, 40, or 50? Not every traditional masculine expectation needs to disappear. Some are worth preserving. The goal is not to throw away the value. The goal is to loosen the rule enough that we can choose how to live it. Rule 1: Be Strong Value underneath: courage, endurance, steadiness, protection. Healthy side: tolerating discomfort, staying present in hard situations, and doing what needs to be done when life is difficult. Rigid side: fear, grief, tenderness, uncertainty, or pain become evidence that a man is weak. There is a major difference between regulating emotion and hiding emotion. Sometimes holding emotion temporarily is exactly what maturity requires. There are moments when we need to remain steady for our children, spouse, coworkers, or people who are depending on us. But temporarily containing an emotion is different from pretending it does not exist. Healthy strength is not the absence of emotion. It is having enough internal capacity to decide what to do with what we are feeling. That may mean talking about it. It may mean waiting until a better moment. It may mean asking for support. It may mean simply acknowledging to ourselves that something hurt. One of the traps men can fall into is allowing anger to become the only emotion that feels masculine enough to express. Fear becomes anger. Hurt becomes anger. Shame becomes anger. Sadness becomes anger. Anger itself is not the problem. The question is whether anger is telling the whole story. What does healthy strength look like with a spouse, friend, child, coworker, or group of men? Have we ever appeared strong on the outside while actually avoiding something internally? And this does not mean men should always be vulnerable or share every feeling. That would simply become another rigid rule. Landing idea: Strength is having enough capacity to choose how to respond, not having no emotion. Rule 2: Handle It Yourself Value underneath: competence, independence, agency, and self-trust. Healthy side: learning skills, carrying responsibility, solving problems, tolerating frustration, and not expecting someone else to rescue us. Rigid side: support feels humiliating, receiving help feels like failure, and problems stay hidden until they become much larger. A lot of men are very comfortable helping someone else. We will show up. Fix the problem. Move furniture. Give advice. Lend money. Help a friend through a crisis. But being on the receiving end can feel completely different. Why are so many of us comfortable helping but uncomfortable being helped? There is an important distinction here. Receiving support does not mean handing someone else responsibility for our life. Support can strengthen agency rather than replace it. The question is not whether independence is good or bad. The question is whether independence is still a choice. Where is the line between healthy independence and isolation? When does asking for help actually increase our agency rather than reduce it? What would we gladly help another man with but struggle to ask for ourselves? There is also a danger in swinging too far the other direction. If "ask for help" becomes another rule, we can accidentally communicate that men should never solve things themselves. That is not the point either. Landing idea: Independence is useful when it remains one option among several. Rule 3: Provide and Achieve Value underneath: responsibility, contribution, discipline, protection, and purpose. Healthy side: working hard, building something, contributing financially, creating security, and serving the people we care about. Ambition, work, achievement, and providing are not the problem. Those things can be meaningful expressions of love. The problem begins when providing becomes the only way we know we matter. Rigid side: income, productivity, status, or usefulness becomes proof of a man's worth. A man can genuinely love his family through provision and still unintentionally become disconnected from the people he is providing for. Can a family deeply appreciate what a man provides and still feel emotionally disconnected from him? How do we know when work is meaningful contribution versus hiding, proving, or escaping? That question becomes especially revealing when something changes. Income drops. Work slows down. Someone else earns more. A promotion does not happen. Our achievement is not recognized. If our identity is built entirely around usefulness, those moments can feel like much more than disappointment. They can feel like a threat to who we are. There are also seasons of life when sacrifice is necessary. Building a business, raising young children, navigating financial pressure, completing school, or pursuing a major goal may require temporary imbalance. But temporary sacrifice and permanent neglect are not the same thing. How much sacrifice is reasonable during a demanding season? What should not be repeatedly sacrificed in the name of success—health, integrity, marriage, meaningful connection, emotional stability, or the very relationships we say we are working for? Landing idea: Providing can be love, but it should not become the only way a man knows he matters. Rule 4: Never Back Down Value underneath: dignity, courage, self-respect, and boundaries. Healthy side: standing up for ourselves, resisting mistreatment, protecting others, holding a boundary, and refusing intimidation. Those are important capacities. There are times when backing down would mean abandoning something that genuinely matters. But there is another version of this rule. Rigid side: disagreement feels like disrespect, apology feels like losing, changing our mind feels weak, and conflict becomes a test of status. Sometimes we begin a disagreement about one issue and keep arguing long after that issue has disappeared. At that point, we may not be protecting the boundary anymore. We may be protecting our image. How do we know whether we are protecting a boundary or protecting our pride? When is refusing to yield courageous, and when is it defensive? Have we ever kept arguing after the original issue was no longer the real issue? Being wrong can feel strangely threatening when we believe our masculinity is being evaluated. If being wrong means being weak, apologizing becomes dangerous. If changing our mind means losing status, curiosity becomes difficult. But dignity does not have to work that way. Landing idea: Dignity does not require somebody else to lose. Keep the Value. Loosen the Rule. There is a common thread running through all of these masculine rules. The value underneath them is often worth keeping. Strength matters. Independence matters. Providing matters. Dignity matters. The question is whether we still have freedom inside those values. Can we be strong and admit something hurts? Can we be capable and still receive help? Can we provide without making productivity the measure of our worth? Can we defend a boundary without needing to defeat the person on the other side? That is where flexibility becomes maturity. The goal is not to become less masculine. It is to become less controlled by rigid definitions of what masculinity is supposed to look like. At AMG, we want to help men develop enough self-awareness to recognize the rules we inherited, enough courage to question the ones that no longer serve us, and enough wisdom to preserve the values underneath them. Keep the value. Loosen the rule.

If you only open LinkedIn when you're job hunting (or creeping your ex's new girlfriend's profile), this episode is for you. Amanda sits down with Catherine Fisher, VP at LinkedIn and one of the most trusted career experts out there. Catherine has built brands and led teams at eBay, Netflix and now LinkedIn. She's here to tell us what we've been getting wrong about the platform (spoiler: it's kind of a lot). The biggest mistake? Treating LinkedIn like a fire extinguisher you only grab in an emergency. Your network should be working for you long before you need it. Maybe you're buried in applications and running on fumes. Maybe you're quietly wondering if it's time to leave. Or maybe you just haven't touched your profile since 2019 (no judgment). Either way, you'll leave with a real plan and fewer excuses. Catherine explains why "looking for a job is a full-time job" is terrible advice. She tells you which three profile fixes to make first, and how to send a cold DM people actually want to answer. Catherine also gets real about how ambition changes over time. She scaled her ambition back when her kids were little and is now ramping up again as she's about to become an empty nester. Proof that ambition comes in seasons, and that's okay. Key Takeaways:  Why you should be on LinkedIn all the time, not just when you're job searching. The three profile updates that do the heavy lifting: your photo, your About section and your Experience section. How skills-based hiring took off during COVID and why transferable skills matter more than big-name brands. Why AI should help "around the edges" but never write your first draft. The formula for a cold DM that gets a reply: be specific, set a time limit and offer to help. How to beat job-search burnout by applying with a plan instead of applying to everything. Catherine's biggest LinkedIn ick: being "humbled and honored." Rapid fire: the Open to Work banner, Easy Apply and the worst career advice she's ever received. 00:00 Intro 04:22 What people misunderstand about LinkedIn 07:02 The first three profile fixes to make 10:08 LinkedIn do's and don'ts 11:05 Why engaging in other people's conversations matters 12:13 Should you accept every connection request? 12:29 How to write a cold DM that gets a response 15:35 How to be authentic without throwing your boss under the bus 18:08 What's changed most about job searching 20:38 AI skills vs. creative skills 21:49 How to beat job-search burnout 23:37 Why referrals are so important 26:43 Where LinkedIn is headed next 27:14 Catherine's biggest LinkedIn ick 27:32 Advice for people early in their career 28:36 Rapid fire: Open to Work, cold DMs and Easy Apply GUEST LINKS Connect with Catherine: https://www.linkedin.com/in/catherinefisherlinkedin/  Read the Career Companion newsletter: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/career-companion-6994037905178398720/  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.

Most philanthropists want to do more good, faster, than they actually do. My next guest has spent twenty-five years inside that gap, watching enormous wealth sit still even as donors say they want it moving.Jeffrey Bradach co-founded The Bridgespan Group and recently wrote an essay called Slow Philanthropy, Why giving by the ultra-wealthy often lags behind their ambitions—and what could help move money faster.What he found were small frictions, quiet allergies to failure and waste, and a strange kind of self-deception running through the whole system.We talk about what a dollar sitting in a bank account actually costs the world, why the ten-year mark brings a reckoning for so many donors, and what MacKenzie Scott understands that almost no one else does.It's Jeff Bradach of the Bridgespan Group on The Business of Giving.

Prendre sa place au travail quand on est dirigeante : comment s'affirmer dans un environnement masculin sans se restreindre ni se suradapter ?Dans cet épisode de Sensées, Jenny Chammas vous propose une réflexion guidée sur le leadership féminin, la légitimité et la manière dont vous choisissez d'incarner votre posture professionnelle.Dans les environnements majoritairement masculins, les femmes dirigeantes peuvent être amenées à ajuster leur ton, retenir une prise de parole, expliquer davantage leurs décisions ou minimiser leur visibilité. Ces adaptations sont parfois stratégiques, mais elles peuvent aussi coûter de l'énergie, de la clarté et de la confiance en soi.Dans cet épisode, vous découvrez comment :repérer les moments où vous vous retenez, vous ajustez ou minimisez votre parole, et comprendre ce qui vous empêche de prendre pleinement votre place ;identifier ce qui échappe à votre contrôle et reprendre du pouvoir sur votre posture ;comprendre l'impact de la peur, du doute ou du sentiment d'illégitimité sur votre leadership ;préparer une réponse et une posture différentes face aux interruptions, à la minimisation ou aux jeux de pouvoir ;poser une intention claire pour vous affirmer avec davantage de liberté, d'autorité et de justesse.À partir d'une situation concrète, Jenny vous accompagne dans une démarche de réflexion inspirée du coaching : vous observez ce qui s'est joué, ce que vous avez ressenti et la manière dont vous pouvez choisir d'agir différemment la prochaine fois.Vous allez ainsi explorer votre rapport à la prise de parole, à la visibilité professionnelle, à l'autorité et à la politique en entreprise, sans nier les rapports de pouvoir ni les situations qui dépassent votre contrôle.L'objectif n'est pas de vous transformer en quelqu'un d'autre, de surjouer l'assurance ou de vous conformer à des codes qui ne vous ressemblent pas. Il s'agit de construire une posture professionnelle plus assumée, de vous préparer aux situations récurrentes et de choisir consciemment le leadership que vous souhaitez incarner.Un épisode pour les femmes dirigeantes qui veulent s'affirmer dans un environnement masculin, rester pleinement elles-mêmes et exercer leur leadership avec plus de confiance, de clarté et d'impact.****Rejoignez la newsletter Sensées : elle vous donne accès à un concentré de coaching et d'inspiration.

This week, Thom Francis welcomes poet Carol Graser to the stage. Carol shared her poems at Albany Poets Presents that took place on February 21, 2018 at Restaurant Navona in Albany. +++++ In the late-2010s I hosted a series at Restaurant Navona on New Scotland Ave in Albany. At these readings a poet would share their work and then they would answers questions from me and the audience. On February 21, 2018, the great Carol Graser was the featured poet. Carol Graser is the author of the poetry collections Prayer for the Sorrowful Brain (Kelsay Books, 2025) and The Wild Twist of Their Stems (Foothills Publishing, 2007). She hosts the fourth Tuesday of the month open mic poetry reading at Caffe Lena, a series that she initiated in 2003. For the reading part of the evening, Carol began with “Poem Read in a Dream,” then on to a wedding poem for her son “Dissolving the Distance Between You.” A couple poems from when she worked at a bookstore, the first in the “persona” of a haiku, and then a poem about eating lunch in Congress Park. Ending with “Ghost of Ambitions.” Carol will be reading this Sunday afternoon st Saratoga Arts as part of the weekend-long Saratoga Book Festival.

On this week's episode of the podcast, I am joined by Asad Awan, who leads monetization product and engineering at OpenAI. We explore the strategic foundations and product principles behind OpenAI's entry into the advertising space. My conversation with Asad focuses on how conversational AI shifts the advertising paradigm from transactional keyword matching to a deeper understanding of user journeys and intent, all while navigating the tension between monetization / commercial utility and user trust. Among other things, we discuss:How the conversational interface creates a unique environment for surfacing latent consumer intent and preferencesWhether user trust can be maintained when AI responses are supplemented by paid commercial placementsWhy the direct value exchange of ads for compute might reshape consumer perceptions of digital advertisingWhat role ChatGPT's Sponsored Agents will play in streamlining the path from discovery to transaction within chatbotsHow OpenAI's approach to automation and simplified bidding differs from traditional social media ad stacksWhen generative AI will be capable of fully automating the creation of contextually relevant ad creativeIf the integration of first-party conversion data is essential for grounding LLM-driven ad targeting systemsThanks to the sponsors of this week's episode of the Mobile Dev Memo podcast:⁠⁠INCRMNTAL⁠⁠⁠.

Tony Parker a réussi ses débuts sur le banc de l'ASVEL avec une victoire face au Maccabi Tel-Aviv (84-74), portée notamment par les 19 points de Jae Crowder. À l'inverse, le Paris Basketball a été largement dominé par le Panathinaïkos à Athènes (91-72), dans une OAKA Arena où la connexion française du Pana — Mathias Lessort, Guerschon Yabusele, Sylvain Francisco et Moustapha Fall — s'est déjà fait remarquer. Deux entrées en matière très différentes qui permettent de mesurer les ambitions et les défis qui attendent les deux clubs français cette saison.

L'ASVEL a lancé sa campagne européenne par une victoire convaincante face au Maccabi Tel-Aviv (84-74), avec un Tony Parker qui décroche son premier succès sur le banc et des promesses autour de cette nouvelle équipe. À l'inverse, le Paris Basketball a vécu une première beaucoup plus compliquée à Athènes, dominé par un Panathinaïkos porté par son trio français Lessort-Yabusele-Francisco (91-72). Deux trajectoires différentes qui permettent de se pencher sur les ambitions des deux clubs français et sur ce qui peut les attendre cette saison. Car les Français sont partout en EuroLeague, et l'ouverture de la saison l'a encore confirmé : de Paris à Athènes, en passant par les autres grands clubs européens, les Bleus occupent une place de plus en plus importante.Cette présence française nous emmène naturellement dans le troisième quart-temps, consacré aux grands joueurs NBA qui ont, eux aussi, connu l'Europe au cours de leur carrière.Des passages parfois méconnus, des trajectoires surprenantes et quelques noms prestigieux qui rappellent le lien historique entre les deux plus grandes compétitions de clubs. Et pour finir bien sûr, le quiz spécial Euroleague. Avec Pierre Dorian, Fred Weis, Félix Gabory et Stephen Brun.

What happens when progress comes at an unseen cost? Pakistani PhD researcher Momin Yar Khalid explores the human and environmental impacts of major infrastructure projects, drawing on his research into Lahore's Orange Line Metro Train. Momin discusses why progress must be considered beyond its immediate benefits and highlights the importance of understanding who bears the costs of development—and how those impacts shape communities over time. - مومن یار خالد ایک پاکستانی ہیں جو آسٹریلیا میں پی ایچ ڈی کی غرض سے مقیم ہیں اور ان کی تحقیق کا موضوع ''ماحولیاتی انصاف اور بنیادی ڈھانچے کے میگا پراجیکٹس: لاہور میں اورنج لائن میٹرو ٹرین بطور کیس اسٹڈی‘‘ ہے ان کی بنیادی تحقیق ان عوامل پر مبنی ہے جو ترقی کے بعد انسانی زندگی پر اثرات مرتب کرتے ہیں ۔ ان کا کہنا ہے کہ ترقی کے ہر منصوبے کے دیر پا اور نظر نہ آنے والے اثرات کا جائزہ لیا جانا بہت ضروری ہے#sbsaudiopodcast________________________________Explore more ways to listen to the Urdu program here: Listen to SBS Urdu. Install our mobile app “SBS Audio” on Apple (iPhone) or Android devices: SBS Audio App. Download on the Apple App Store; download on Google Play. Follow us on social media: SBS Urdu on Facebook and SBS Urdu on Instagram. - #sbsaudiopodcast______________ہر بدھ اور جمعہ کا پورا پروگرام اس لنک پرسنئے , اردو پرگرام سننے کے دیگر طریقے SBS Audio کے نام سے موجود ہماری موبائیل ایپ ایپل (آئی فون) یا اینڈرائیڈ , ڈیوائیسزپرانسٹال کیجئے۔ پوڈکاسٹ سننے کے لئے نیچے دئے اپنے پسندیدہ پوڈ کاسٹ پلیٹ فارم کا انتخاب کیجئے:  Spotify Podcast , Apple Podcasts

Rahul Bajoria, managing director and head of India and ASEAN Economic Research at Bank of America, joins host Tushar Shetty to examine why India's manufacturing sector has remained stuck at around 15 percent of GDP despite decades of rapid growth. They discuss the colonial and planning-era roots of India's weak industrial base, the regulatory and compliance burdens that keep Indian firms small and push them into informality, why regulatory progress has been driven by a handful of competitive states rather than by the center, India's limited gains from China Plus One and its growing exports to China, the mixed record of production-linked incentives and the scaling up of the Apple ecosystem, and the electricity, labor and land reforms needed to lift manufacturing to 25 percent of GDP by 2047.

What happens when an organization's AI ambition moves faster than its frontline's ability to absorb it?Agility isn't just deploying new technology quickly. It's whether the people and processes closest to the customer can change alongside it without the experience coming apart at the seams.Today we're going to talk about the friction between enterprise AI deployment and frontline readiness — and why the last mile of service is where AI investment either proves out or quietly falls apart. We'll get into:- What actually breaks between a strategic AI decision and the moment a technician has to act on it- Why fragmented data access is so costly when the person standing in front of the customer can't see the whole picture- How to measure success in field service when closing tickets faster isn't the same thing as a better outcomeTo help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome Taksina Eammano, EVP and GM of Agentforce Field Service at Salesforce.About Taksina EammanoTaksina Eammano is the Executive Vice President & General Manager of Field Service at Salesforce.

What if the life you spent years trying to build isn't the life you want anymore? For most of my life, I was trying to arrive somewhere - make more money, build the audience, get another book deal, buy the house, become somebody. There was always another number to hit, another door to get through, another version of myself I thought would finally let me exhale. But lately, something has shifted. In this episode, I talk about giving yourself permission to disappoint the person you used to be. Not because that version of you was wrong, but because you're allowed to change. You're allowed to outgrow the goals, identities, and plans that once made perfect sense. I get into the difference between constantly becoming someone and actually experiencing your life, why ambition can be useful without being allowed to drive, and how easy it is to postpone happiness by attaching it to the next achievement, relationship, body, house, promotion, or milestone. Maybe the question isn't, “Where is all of this going?” Maybe it's, “Where can I go while I'm still here?” I also answer an Ask Angry question about knowing when it may be time to leave a marriage - and why waiting for absolute certainty can keep us stuck much longer than we realize. In this episode, I talk about: Giving yourself permission to disappoint the person you used to be Letting old goals and identities evolve without rejecting your past Why constantly trying to “arrive” can make you miss your actual life Ambition without letting ambition run your life Following curiosity without needing everything to be productive Why happiness becomes a moving target Recognizing joy while it's actually happening Asking whether the plan you're following still belongs to you Why certainty may never come when deciding whether to leave a relationship The questions that can reveal whether there's still something worth repairing Thanks for listening. If something in this episode hits you, pass it along to someone who might need it. If you're tired of knowing what you need to change but still repeating the same patterns, 31 Days to Get Out of Your Own Way is for you. For 31 days, we'll work on closing the gap between insight and action through structure, accountability, and ownership. Less analyzing yourself. More making different choices and actually changing your life. Learn more and join here:https://nas.com/therapist-membership-qa-space/challenges/31-days-to-get-out-of-your-own-way

What do you want to be when you grow up? It's a universal question — and yet at some point, people stop asking you. Drawing on a nationwide survey across the Philippines, consumer researcher Lance Katigbak makes the case that countries should keep track of their citizens' ambitions and aspirations. His radical proposal: What if governments didn't just track GDP but also started measuring dreams? After Modupe shares why asking about people's dreams are important. Hosted on Acast.

Most entrepreneurs are taught how to build a business. Very few are taught how to build a business without losing themselves—or the people they love.In Part 1 of this special two-part Valentine's conversation, Dr. Alisa Whyte welcomes back Robert and Kay Lee Fukui, founders of Power Couples by Design™, for an honest discussion about the hidden cost of success.Together, they unpack why so many entrepreneurs postpone happiness while chasing the next milestone, how constantly moving the goalposts can quietly damage relationships, and why defining success only by revenue is one of the greatest traps business owners face. They also share deeply personal stories about loss, rebuilding life, relocating across the country, making courageous decisions together, and learning to enjoy life now instead of waiting for "someday."What We DiscussIf you're building a business, leading a career, or striving for more while trying to protect your relationships, this episode will challenge the way you define success—and remind you what truly matters:Magnifying Strengths & Weaknesses: Why entrepreneurial success amplifies both the best and hardest parts of life.The "Someday" Trap: Dismantling the dangerous myth of "I'll be happy when..."Ambition vs. Intimacy: How corporate and entrepreneurial ambition can quietly compete with your primary relationship.Life Now vs. Retirement: Why waiting until retirement to enjoy your life is often too late.Redefining Wealth: The importance of defining success on your own terms beyond revenue.Living Intentionally: How intentional alignment creates both stronger businesses and healthier relationships.This conversation is a powerful reminder that success isn't just measured by what you build—but by who you're becoming while building it.Exclusive Free Resource for ListenersFree Assessment: Tandem Marriage & Business Assessment — Discover where your business and personal relationship stand.Connect with Robert & Kay Lee FukuiOfficial Website: marriedentrepreneur.coBook: Tandem: The Married Entrepreneurs' Guide for Greater Work-Life BalancePodcast: Thriving In Tandem™ PodcastMedia Kit: Robert & Kay Lee Fukui Media KitMusic licensed through Soundstripe:Code: AEQTXJWIZYBD3DYF"Success becomes more meaningful when love and leadership grow in tandem."Send us Fan MailReady to turn your message into a profitable speaking career?

Alex Mashrabov is the Founder and CEO of Higgsfield, the third fastest scaling company to $1BN in ARR behind OpenAI and Anthropic.

In part two of this conversation, Travis Chappell and producer Eric Skwarczynski unpack the tension between ambition and skepticism. They explore how to pursue meaningful work, build a comfortable business, and learn from successful people without blindly buying into anyone's “secret formula.” The conversation moves from creative comparison and coaching to the value of timeless principles, healthy discernment, and keeping enough belief to take action. On this episode we talk about: Why becoming more self-aware can sometimes make it harder to act with bold conviction How to learn from successful people without treating them like infallible gurus The difference between timeless principles and step-by-step formulas that promise identical results Why comparison can make creators and entrepreneurs question whether their work is worth pursuing How coaching, masterminds, and the right rooms can create unexpected breakthroughs Whether a comfortable, diversified business can be a better goal than building a massive “unicorn” company Finding the balance between realistic skepticism and the optimism required to take meaningful action Top 3 Takeaways You do not need to fully endorse someone to learn from them. Take the useful insight, leave what does not fit, and apply ideas within your own context. Be wary of anyone who promises that copying their exact routine, strategy, or formula will produce their exact results. Outcomes are shaped by timing, circumstance, opportunity, execution, and countless variables beyond a checklist. Ambition does not have to mean betting everything on one huge outcome. Building several profitable, aligned ventures that support a great life can be a meaningful version of success. Notable Quotes “Just because I like something that somebody said does not mean that I have to endorse everything that they say.” “The people who I think have helped me do the things that have really blown up in big ways… [are] the people who are always going, ‘Just do things, find the things that are working and do more of those things.'” “Money only solves your money problems, but it's easier to solve the rest of your problems with money in the bank.” Connect with Travis Chappell: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/travischappell/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/travischappell/ Other: Travis Makes Money Podcast | Travis Chappell Website A Word from Our Sponsors: - The most successful business owners don't do it all themselves — they delegate.

 With host retail coach Wendy Batten   https://wendybatten.com/podcast-intro/   Want to work with me to plan out your week so it's built with intention? Something that works easily for you and your business? I'm hosting a workshop on September 29th to help you do just that! Join me for Your CEO Time: From Spinning to Soaring. It's only $47 and will change the way you look at your time - I promise. Episode Overview It's story time. In this episode, I'm sharing something personal about how my business ambitions have changed and evolved over the years.  Ten years ago, I realized that even though my husband's and my businesses were successful and our lives were busy, I was ready for a big change. I had to step back and dig deep on these questions: What do I want to do, be, have, and experience in my life? From there, we began designing our life first and reverse engineering our businesses around it.  It was hard. But we did it. We started living differently. We stayed open to possibilities. We sold some of our businesses. We moved to our crooked cottage by the sea. I started my coaching business and my Inner Circle. And yet, here we are, an entire decade later, I'm asking those same questions again. I'm curating again and I'm feeling extremely ambitious and excited for what the next 10 years will look like in my business. So let's talk about it: what it means to stay curious, to listen to what is changing, and to continue refining both business and life as our priorities evolve.  I also share what I'm building next, including the Collective, a new space that brings life and business planning together for entrepreneurs who want to build sustainable businesses around the lives they actually want. Let's do this. Our Key Topics Why I realized that a successful, busy business and a full life weren't necessarily the same thing How a moment of clarity changed the way my husband and I thought about our ambitions, our business, and our life. What it means to design your life first and then reverse engineer the business around it. Why staying curious and listening to yourself and your clients matters as your business evolves. How I'm bringing life and business coaching together in the next phase of my work with The Collective - you'll want to hear about this!   Key Takeaways For Shop Owners Your definition of ambition can change. Ten years ago, my ambition looked very different from what it looks like today. I've learned that it's worth revisiting what I actually want instead of continuing toward goals simply because they were once important to me. Start with the life you want, then build the business around it. Rather than automatically allowing the business to dictate how life looks, I've found value in asking what I want for my life first and then figuring out what needs to be true for the business to support that vision. Curiosity creates room for change. I talk about continuing to listen, including listening to clients, pushing boundaries, and not being afraid to change. Staying fresh in business can mean being willing to reconsider how you're doing things. Fear can be part of making a meaningful change. I've had ideas and decisions that I knew I wanted to act on but delayed because I was afraid. I'm learning again that moving into something new can require working through that fear rather than waiting for it to disappear. Your business can be built around your needs and values. I'm thinking differently about business support now, with more attention on the wellbeing of the entrepreneur alongside the business itself. For me, that means creating something sustainable and customized rather than simply adding more information, strategies, or things to do.

This episode explores the future of Heathrow, the UK's hub airport and a vital engine for national economic growth. The discussion was recorded live at the recent TwinTalks breakfast hosted by the Bentley Systems Infrastructure Policy Advancement team and features Helen Elsby, Chief Development Officer at Heathrow, the person responsible for turning the airport's complex multi-billion-pound ambitions into physical and commercial realities. Helen is joined in the discussion by two key members of her supply chain: Nigel Cole, Managing Director of Infrastructure at Mace Construct and Harriet Wheeldon, director at Mott MacDonald.With passenger volumes continuing to reach record highs, Heathrow continues to progress plans for expansion to combat capacity constraints and keep passengers and cargo moving in, out and across the country smoothly.The scale of ambition is staggering: a £1.3 billion commitment in 2026 to conclude the current H7 investment cycle, more than £5 billion planned for the forthcoming H8 period (2027–2031), and the greenlighting of planning work for a potential further multibillion pound investment in expansion. As the discussion hears, Heathrow plans to build faster, smarter, and more efficiently to deliver maximum value for passengers, airlines, and the UK economy.Funding these ambitions entirely through private capital requires relentless operational and supply chain efficiency. From Modern Methods of Construction and the use of digital technology to collaboration across a nationwide supply chain, Heathrow must stretch every asset to unlock a 12% capacity boost, transform passenger experience, and drive net-zero goals.Much to get on with at Heathrow – so much to discuss.ResourcesDraft Heathrow Expansion National Policy StatementHeathrow's H7 2026 plansHeathrow's H8 plansHeathrow expansion plansInterview with Heathrow COO Javier EchaveInfrastructure Policy Advancement

Have you ever wondered if becoming a mom meant giving up a part of yourself? In this episode, Whitney talks with Ruthie Ackerman, author of The Mother Code, about the tension between motherhood, ambition, identity and the life you imagined for yourself. Ruthie shares her own experience of feeling torn between having children and the creative, adventurous life she wanted, and how she came to realize that becoming a mother didn't require giving up the other parts of who she was.   They talk about the messages women grow up with around motherhood, including the idea that being a good mom means putting your own passions and ambitions aside. Ruthie also shares how her views on feminism influenced her feelings about becoming a mother, how her family's history shaped her fears around having children, and what she learned through her own fertility journey with egg freezing, IVF, and ultimately using donor eggs. Along the way, she found herself questioning a lot of the assumptions she had about what motherhood and family are supposed to look like.   If you've ever felt like you had to choose between being a good mom and pursuing the things that make you feel like yourself, tune into this episode of Electric Ideas.   Here's what you can look forward to in today's episode: The pressure to choose between motherhood and ambition Why women often see motherhood as a sacrifice of identity and passions Rethinking what feminism and motherhood can look like together How family history and personal trauma can shape decisions about motherhood The emotional and financial realities of egg freezing and IVF The fertility wealth gap and why fertility preservation isn't equally accessible Choosing donor eggs and letting go of the focus on DNA Redefining what makes someone a mother Balancing ambition, motherhood, and guilt Creating a version of motherhood that actually fits your life   Learn more about 1:1 coaching with Whitney - book a 15-minute Spark Session   Connect with Whitney: Instagram l Website l 5 Days to Less Stress, More Satisfaction l Tend to Your Soul Toolkit l 10 Soulful Journaling Prompts | Electric Ideas Podcast   Connect with Ruthie: Instagram | Website | Book: The Mother Code | Substack
