Podcasts about ambitious

I'm diving into the third mental load hack in our series—and this one might challenge you. We're talking about downshifting. Not lowering your standards. Not settling. But consciously deciding what is actually yours to carry and what isn't. I unpack why mental load decreases faster through subtraction than optimization, how we silently assume responsibility at work and home, and why your capability does not equal your obligation. If you've been feeling like the default for everything, this conversation will feel like a deep exhale.In this episode, we unpack: Why mental load is about ownership, not just tasks The hidden cost of assumed responsibility at work and home What “downshifting” really means (and why it's not lowering your standards) How to run a cost-benefit analysis on your time and energy Why subtraction reduces overwhelm faster than better organizationWork with me: Ambitious & Balanced: www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/ambitiousandbalanced Book your Break Free From Stress Strategy Call (with free Quiz!): www.ambitiousandbalanced.com/break-free-from-stress Our Sponsor: NannyTrack helps families who employ a nanny understand what's required, track pay and PTO, estimate taxes, and prepare to file correctly themselves.

In today's episode of the Extraordinary Creatives podcast, I'm joined by the inspiring Alexandra Daisy Ginsberg, whose work sits at the intersection of art, ecology, and emerging technologies. Daisy's work explores the politics, value systems, and assumptions that shape how humans relate to the natural world. Her projects range from algorithmically designed gardens created for pollinators, to resurrecting the smell of extinct flowers, and translating living systems into materials such as tapestry and bronze. In our conversation, Daisy shares how working closely with scientists and researchers has refined her relationship to failure. What might be a dead end in scientific research can become, for her, the starting point for an artwork that asks better questions. We dig into Pollinator Pathmaker, shaped by insect vision rather than human taste, and her new public sculpture commission, The Length of a Moment, where the invisible movement of moths becomes permanent form. This episode is an invitation to think differently about how we apply our creativity, who we learn from, and the kinds of worlds our work helps to shape. I am certain you'll be inspired, so please let me know if anything touches you. KEY TAKEAWAYS Making ambitious work is never just about ideas. It's about labour, time, care, and responsibility. About how teams are treated, how boundaries are held, and how ethics show up not as statements, but as daily decisions. When you approach a project as a collaborator who is willing to learn how an organization works, you create the psychological safety needed to pull off truly ambitious, experimental work. Hold the line on your professional boundaries. Clarity is kindness, it's not about being "difficult" - it's being precise. BEST MOMENTS “The flower looks red to us, but a bee can't see red. They can see ultraviolet. So suddenly you realise that the way we think the world looks isn't how it looks at all.” “Her methodologies show us what becomes possible when artists invite in knowledge from academics, technologists, children, and global perspective.” EPISODE RESOURCES https://www.daisyginsberg.com https://www.instagram.com/daisyginsberg https://pollinator.art HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.

Backed by Inflexion and now majority owned by L'Oréal, Medik8 is a live case study in what happens when ambition, culture and opportunity align. In this special International Women's Day episode, Inflexion Managing Director Freddy West speaks with Medik8 Chief Financial Officer Lilia Santos and Chief People Officer Aimee Campbell about what it really takes to scale a PE backed business at speed while creating an environment where talented women thrive.

Lilia and Aimee also reflect on navigating private equity as female leaders, managing energy rather than time, and using their positions to open doors for the next generation.⭐

You see the highlight reel. The milestones. The scaled business. The loving relationship. What you don't see is me crying in my therapist's office trying to figure out how to be in my feminine energy because I genuinely don't know how. You don't see me stress-eating cookies at midnight. You don't see me about to move into a construction zone.Social media is a highlight reel, and we know that. But when everyone else's life looks so in flow, it's easy to feel like you're the only one struggling.This episode is different. No strategy. No frameworks. Just me sharing what I'm actually navigating. Learning what feminine energy even means. Living with chronic low-level stress. Processing the loneliness of holding space for everyone else's problems. Timeline anxiety about marriage and kids. Trying to be present instead of capturing everything for content. Craving depth in a world of small talk.If you've been following me and thought I don't struggle, this is me pulling back the curtain.

You don't feel exhausted because you have too much to do. You feel exhausted because too many decisions are still open. In this episode, I break down how “open loops” — the unresolved questions quietly spinning in your brain, are driving your mental load and keeping your nervous system activated all day long. I share the simple decision framework I teach my clients that instantly brings relief. This isn't about better organizing. It's about deciding differently. And when you do? Everything shifts.

People get paid to be in Forbes. Credential stacking won't make you a leader. You can't demand authority in a room. Your authority has to be learned, perceived, felt.When you have real authority, sales become easier. Clients stop comparison shopping. They trust your recommendations without pushback. You're not constantly defending your value. People come to you pre-sold.But most of what we've been taught doesn't work. Posting everywhere dilutes your message. People-pleasing marketing means you stand for nothing. Promises that don't match delivery destroy trust.I'm breaking down five psychology-backed ways to build real authority: consistent insights that diagnose problems, unwavering perspective even when polarizing, boundaries that signal high status, integrity between promise and delivery, and borrowed authority while you build your own.Timestamps: 02:46 Why Authority Matters06:08 Better Clients and Boundaries10:16 Marketing and Pricing Leverage28:57 Five Psychology Principles29:51 Pattern Recognition31:26 Insight Over Information32:57 Diagnose Root Causes34:43 Simplify Expert Language37:57 Consistent Perspective41:10 Trends Versus Beliefs54:03 Borrowed Authority ProofTo join the Ambitious Network for free, click HERE.

Think your IQ is what limits your influence? The real bottleneck might be your reactions. We pull back the curtain on emotional intelligence and show how it quietly governs decision quality, trust, performance, and the culture your team lives in every day. Instead of treating EQ as a soft add-on, we frame it as the leadership multiplier that turns strategy into steady execution.We break down the four core domains—self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, and relationship management—and connect them to moments you face at work: the meeting where tension spikes, the email that triggers you, the one-on-ones where people read your mood more than your words. You'll hear candid reflections on blind spots, how values drive triggers, and why stress widens the gap between who we think we are and how others experience us. We explore the hard ROI: regulated leaders access clearer judgment, build predictable trust, reduce drama, and unlock smarter problem solving across the team.Along the way, we share practical moves you can use right away. Map your top triggers to the values beneath them. Pause before key decisions to name what you feel and choose instead of react. De-escalate heat with simple scripts that separate facts from stories. Treat culture as a daily product of repeated reactions—because mindset drives behavior, behavior shapes culture, and culture becomes legacy. If you want your team to think better and move faster, start by leading your inner world on purpose.Listen now, then tell us: what emotion is steering your leadership today?

In this episode of Scam Rangers, Ayelet Biger-Levin joins Kate Griffin, Director of Inclusive Finance at the Aspen Institute, to discuss the monumental work of the National Task Force on Fraud and Scam Prevention. Over the past year, Griffin has led a diverse coalition of 80 institutions, ranging from financial giants like JPMorgan Chase and Capital One to tech leaders like Google, Meta, and Apple, to develop a unified strategy against the global scam epidemic.Griffin pulls back the curtain on the "ambitiously pragmatic" approach required to bring competitors and government agencies to the same table. She explores the delicate balance of inclusive finance, explaining how fraud prevention measures can inadvertently create barriers for low-income households. The conversation covers the task force's strategic decision to bypass the "blame game" of liability to focus on immediate prevention, the role of cross-sector information sharing, and the emergence of the Southeast Asian Scam Center Strike Force. This episode provides a high-level look at how policy, private sector action, and human values are converging to dismantle the business model of modern scammers.Key Takeaways: A New Era of Cross-Sector Collaboration The "Yes And" Moment: Griffin highlights that while progress in private sector investment and government policy is worth celebrating, the fight requires sustained, concerted action across the entire scam lifecycle. Neutral Facilitation: The Aspen Institute's role as a neutral third party allowed for "hard conversations" between sectors like telcos and banks that often point fingers at one another. Bipartisan Momentum: Fraud has become a rare point of total bipartisan agreement in Washington; the scammers "do not ask who you voted for," leading to the creation of the Stop Scams Caucus in Congress. The Scam Lifecycle Framework: The task force's recommendations are organized around the scam lifecycle, focusing on suppressing activity, disrupting infrastructure, and empowering victims through better response and support. Pragmatic Policy: The episode details how the task force's work influenced the U.S.'s first-ever national strategy for financial inclusion and continues to brief Capitol Hill on drafting future anti-scam legislation.For more information about the task force visit: https://fraudtaskforce.aspeninstitute.org/Read the national strategy document: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/671a80aa4a84f2359ce4d360/t/690e1fe9c5c80642162575a5/1762533353206/FraudTFReport_Digital_Final+%282%29.pdfFollow Kate Griffin on LinkedIn : https://www.linkedin.com/in/katedgriffin/About the HostAyelet Biger-Levin is the Founder and CEO of RangersAI and the host of Scam Rangers, a podcast exploring the human side of scams and the people working to protect consumers from financial and emotional harm.Through her work at RangersAI and her leadership within the Global Anti-Scam Alliance, Ayelet partners with financial institutions, policymakers, and advocates to elevate scam prevention beyond controls and technology toward trust-based, customer-centric protection.Be sure to follow her on LinkedIn and reach out to learn about her additional activities in this space:https://www.linkedin.com/in/ayelet-biger-levin/RangersAI: https://www.rangersai.com/

The daughter of a hospital administrator, Amy Gleason never considered a career in the public sector – she went straight into healthcare. As an emergency room nurse, she started to see the dangers that unfold when healthcare providers don't have access to the information they need to treat patients. Those experiences drove her towards a tech career in the emerging electronic health records space before a very personal experience altered her professional path yet again.Amy's active and healthy 10-year old daughter began suffering unusual healthcare events, from rashes and headaches to broken bones. Eventually, she couldn't walk. It took more than a year from the start of these symptoms for doctors to diagnose her with a rare autoimmune disease. Even then, it was an accidental diagnosis from a dermatologist conducting a skin biopsy.Amy attributes the delayed diagnosis to siloed data, not unsimilar to the challenges she experienced as a nurse and was working to solve in the EHR space. It motivated her to co-found a company focused on helping patients with chronic diseases access their data to share it with the providers and family members helping to navigate complex care journeys.In 2015, Amy's work earned her an award from the White House for Champions of Change in Precision Medicine – her first foray into the public sector. By 2018, she entered civic service full time with a role at the United States Digital Service, which she describes as “DOGE 1.0.”In this episode of Healthcare is Hard, Amy talked to Keith Figlioli about the work she's doing now as Strategic Advisor to CMS and Administrator of the U.S. DOGE Service, where her main mission is modernizing technology across government agencies for the millions of people who rely on federal services every day. This ranges from modernizing FAFSA and the student loan process, to improving the Visa system ahead of the World Cup, and work on various critical healthcare systems. Some of the topics Amy and Keith discussed in this episode, include:Bold plans for a Digital Health Ecosystem. Launched in July 2025, CMS' Health Tech Ecosystem is a public-private partnership designed as a voluntary, fast-moving alternative to slow rulemaking. Rather than years of regulation, the program uses pledges, working groups, and short development cycles to put interoperability building blocks and real patient-facing use cases in place. The goal is to get usable capabilities into the market in months – not years – let the community iterate, and have baseline use cases live by March 31, 2026 with more advanced capabilities rolling out by July.Carrots and sticks before regulation. Recognizing the limitations of regulation, Amy talked about a new philosophy for incentivizing the market to change behaviors on its own first. “Carrots” include the rural health transformation fund and the recently introduced ACCESS model, a 10-year pilot that, for the first time, lets tech-enabled services bill Medicare directly. “Sticks” include stricter enforcement of information-blocking rules.Replacing the 1970s-era Medicare claims system. Amy discussed plans to replace Medicare's decades-old COBOL-based adjudication platform. While it's a stable platform, it can't support real-time processing, AI, or rapid change. To replace it, CMS is looking to commercial, off-the-shelf solutions that operate at scale so claims processing can be modernized, made real-time, and integrated with new interoperability rails. It's a concrete example of bringing modern engineering and product thinking to government technology.To hear Amy and Keith discuss these topics and more, listen to this episode of Healthcare is Hard: A Podcast for Insiders.

Rutger Bregman is a Dutch historian and best-selling author of Utopia for Realists and Humankind: A Hopeful History. In 2019, he went viral for his takedown of billionaires at the World Economic Forum and for a heated exchange with Tucker Carlson. Today, he joins the show to discuss his latest book, Moral Ambition, which he defines as the desire to use your available talents and resources to make the world a better place rather than focus solely on individual wealth. He argues the real question is whether the work you've chosen is ambitious enough in moral terms—whether your day-to-day life tackles the big problems facing humankind. He explains why “follow your passion” is often bad advice; why moral breakthroughs tend to come from small, disciplined groups rather than mass appeal; and why moral progress is neither automatic nor inevitable.

What does it take to make inclusion real for 420,000 people across 55 countries? We sit down with Karine Vasselin, Group Head of Inclusive Futures at Capgemini, to unpack a pragmatic playbook that turns diversity into business value and culture into daily practice. Karine shares how a simple shift in language—“inclusive futures for all”—opened the door for everyone to see themselves in the work, from parents and caregivers to neurodivergent colleagues and people with disabilities.Across the conversation, we dig into the tools and choices that matter most. Inclusion Circles give managers semi-guided, scenario-based conversations that build psychological safety and shared norms without adding corporate fluff. Employee networks—Women@Capgemini, OutFront, Capability, and NeuroAbility—move beyond awareness to shape policies like safer travel guidance and inclusive benefits that recognize all families. We also examine hard-won lessons from neurodiversity pilots: why early enthusiasm ran into real-world friction, how smaller cohorts and expert partners like Auticon and Ambitious about Autism changed outcomes, and what it takes to scale responsibly.AI runs as a hopeful throughline. For many neurodivergent and disabled employees, generative AI behaves like assistive tech—organizing ideas, clarifying communication, summarizing meetings, and removing friction through captions and text-to-speech. But tools alone can't fix culture. We talk hiring pipelines, role design, advancement, and the manager skills needed to spot bias and coach diverse teams. Karine also offers career advice for future inclusion leaders: build credibility through business and talent experience, and learn to influence without authority.If you care about practical inclusion, leadership training that sticks, and using AI to expand access rather than entrench bias, this conversation delivers a clear blueprint you can adapt tomorrow.

Every marketing strategy works. Funnels work. Social media works. Ads work. DMs work. The question isn't what works, it's what works for YOU and the business you actually want to build. Today I'm joined by Landon Poburan, a serial entrepreneur and marketing strategist who's managed over $15 million in advertising across 10+ years. After going $42K in debt, experiencing clinical burnout, and building businesses he wanted to escape from, he completely pivoted to what he calls an "un-hustled philosophy" and now runs a thriving business working 4-6 hours per day.We're unpacking why every marketing strategy actually works but not every single one is going to work for you (and how to identify what aligns with your values and lifestyle), the real difference between brand building and conversion-focused marketing and where these two intersect (this explanation is the best I've ever heard), why consistency beats tactics every single time and how to set realistic expectations when building something sustainable, the dangerous trap of building a business based on somebody else's definition of success (and how to avoid it), a complete masterclass on Substack and how it allowed Landon to build nine revenue streams with writing (with minimal video, no photo shoots, no endless content creation), why being early on emerging platforms can be massive leverage, the formula for marketing success: quality times quantity (not quality OR quantity), how marketing is actually as much mindset as it is strategy, and why things take the time they take (no shortcuts, no guarantees, just consistent effort toward what you actually want).If you've been drowning in marketing advice, jumping from strategy to strategy, or building a business you're starting to hate, this episode will completely reframe how you think about marketing and what success actually means for you.Timestamps: 01:58 Marketing Strategies and Brand Building06:38 The Importance of Consistency and Realistic Expectations09:58 Balancing Conversion and Brand Building25:22 The Role of Consistency in Business Success36:20 Quality vs. Quantity in Content Creation44:54 The Future of Personal Branding and AI49:08 Landon's Substack Journey51:37 The Growth and Potential of Substack52:58 The Benefits of Writing on Substack56:00 The Importance of Building a Personal Brand57:44 AI and the Future of Content Creation59:54 Rapid Fire Substack Questions01:03:27 Leveraging Substack for Business GrowthConnect with Landon: Subscribe to Landon's SubstackInstagramWebsite To join the Ambitious Network for free, click HERE.

In this episode, we explore the neuroscience behind empathy, mirror neurons, and why women are especially sensitive to the environments, people, and beliefs they surround themselves with. What if your sensitivity isn't a flaw — but a neurological design? In this episode of Feminine and Ambitious, we explore the science of empathy, mirror neurons, and why women are especially influenced by the environments, people, and beliefs they surround themselves with. You'll learn how the female brain mirrors emotion, confidence, and self-belief — and how both your inner identity and external environment quietly shape how others experience you. This episode unpacks why proximity matters more than motivation, how your self-beliefs are mirrored back to you by others, and why curating your environment, community, and habits is a powerful act of self-respect. You'll learn why finishing what you start builds neurological trust, how identity is reinforced through daily follow-through, and how spaces, art, and community quietly shape who you become. This is not about forcing confidence or pushing yourself harder — it's about understanding how your nervous system learns and choosing mirrors that elevate you. In this episode, we cover: What mirror neurons are and how they influence behavior and emotion Why women experience empathy and emotional contagion more deeply How your self-beliefs are subconsciously mirrored by others The role of integrity and follow-through in building self-trust Why proximity to regulated, ambitious women changes everything How your home and environment program your nervous system Why curation is self-respect — not avoidance ✨ Ready to Go Deeper?

What does it really cost to be ambitious? If you've ever felt too big for some rooms but not enough for others, if you hide your success because you're afraid of making people uncomfortable, if you've sacrificed relationships and time and energy in pursuit of something bigger, this episode is for you.I don't wanna have to be strong right now. I don't wanna have to figure it out. What if I don't wanna be the one who's got the answer? This is the conversation ambitious women need but rarely get to have. Today I'm breaking down the real sacrifices required when you're building something big, the invisible weight you carry that nobody acknowledges, and why you might be choosing sacrifice in the short term instead of settling for regret in the long term. We're covering identity shifts (your identity is shifting so fast you sometimes don't recognize yourself), the emotional weight of being the capable one (always the person who handles it, never the person who gets to fall apart), hiding success because you're afraid of outgrowing your circle, the guilt of wanting more when everyone else seems content, sacrificing joy, hobbies, and spontaneity in the building phase, time that doesn't belong to you (your schedule revolves around launches, clients, deadlines), the mental load of your business always being on your mind, financial pressure especially for breadwinners, and why despite all of it, you wouldn't change a thing.The only other option is to know what was possible to achieve and never go for it. If you're feeling the weight of ambition right now, this is your validation.Timestamps: 00:50 Understanding Sacrifice02:05 Balancing Aspirations and Reality04:04 The Emotional Weight of Ambition08:01 Identity and Growth14:32 The Pressure of Success34:34 Questioning Desires and Ambitions34:56 The Guilt of Success and Isolation38:04 Sacrifices in Pursuit of Goals40:50 Balancing Business and Personal Life44:20 The Cost of Flexibility and Independence54:14 Financial Pressures and Investments58:37 Reflecting on Sacrifices and AchievementsTo join the Ambitious Network for free, click HERE.

Ambitious? Sure. Realistic? Not even close. In this episode, Chris breaks down why Beijing's long-term dream runs straight into reality: heavy currency manipulation, unreliable economic data, an export-dependent economy, and looming demographic problems. Competition with the dollar isn't a bad thing—but reserve status requires trust, transparency, and balance. Until China fixes its structural issues, no one's lining up to park their reserves in the yuan.

Palantir (PLTR) CEO Alex Karp said the company's earnings "exceeded over our most ambitious expectations." Kevin Hincks talks about what makes the print so notable and how it can lift the entire software space. One macro indicator that serves as a crutch to the market is the partial government shutdown. Kevin later notes Project Vault in the U.S. and why he "wouldn't trust a rally" in gold and silver. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Feeling stuck between your best intentions and your most stressful reactions? We unpack a simple, repeatable way to move from autopilot to intentional leadership using the LEAD framework: Look within, Exercise choice, Act with intention, and Deepen connection. If you've ever prepared carefully for a feedback conversation only to get derailed by defensiveness, this conversation gives you the tools and language to stay steady and effective.We start by demystifying emotional intelligence and emotional agility in plain terms: emotions are signals, not commands. You'll learn how to read your body's cues, name what you're feeling with precision, and use that information to guide behavior. We break down why your brain's fast stories skew negative and how a deliberate pause creates the space to choose your response. From there, we translate values into behaviors you can use under pressure—slowing your cadence, asking better questions, and steering the moment toward clarity instead of conflict.Throughout the episode, we share real-world examples leaders face every week, from giving tough feedback to protecting psychological safety when tensions spike. You'll hear practical prompts like “How is this landing for you?” and “What else could be true?” along with the science-backed habit of “name it to tame it” to regulate your nervous system. The result is a roadmap to build self-trust, become more predictable to your team, and widen your capacity for stress so you can lead with calm, curiosity, and purpose.Ready to practice, not just plan?
