A painting can't heal all that's ailing the healthcare system, but it might help the healers themselves and, in turn, the people they care for. That is Alice Walton's goal for a new medical school seeking to transform medical education and the broader healthcare system.

Site visits can make—or break—an economic development project. In this episode of Develop This!, host Dennis Fraise is joined by Larry Gigerich, Executive Managing Director of Ginovus and one of the nation's most respected voices in site selection and economic development. With more than 30 years of experience across local and state government, nonprofit leadership, and the private sector, Larry has worked on nearly 600 projects, generating $12 billion in capital investment, creating 100,000+ jobs, and retaining more than 200,000 existing jobs. A former Chair of the Site Selectors Guild. Larry brings unmatched insight into what site consultants and corporate decision-makers truly value when they come to town. As part of the ongoing partnership between Develop This! and the Site Selectors Guild, this conversation pulls back the curtain on how communities can prepare for, host, and follow up after site visits in ways that build trust and improve outcomes. Dennis and Larry explore: Why site visits are far more than "checking a box" in the project decision process Common misconceptions communities have about what site selectors are evaluating How logistics, professionalism, and pacing can influence perception Why authenticity, transparency, and the right people in the room matter more than a scripted pitch How meals, breaks, and quality-of-place experiences shape a visitor's impression The critical importance of timely, thoughtful follow-up How technology and data are continuing to evolve the site selection process

"Maybe this will be the inspiration for my new painting!" she said excitedly.Hu: Bencét kevésbé ragadta meg a varázslatos hangulat. „Ez biztosan csak egy optikai csalódás a köd miatt” — mondta.En: Bence was less captivated by the magical atmosphere. "It's surely just an optical illusion because of the fog," he said.Hu: Ő mindig megpróbálta a dolgokat logikusan megközelíteni.En: He always tried to approach things logically.Hu: De Eszter nem ért be ezzel a magyarázattal.En: But Eszter wasn't satisfied with this explanation.Hu: „Bence, nézzük meg közelebbről! Ki tudja, mi lehet ott?”En: "Bence, let's take a closer look! Who knows what might be there?"Hu: Bár Bence eleinte vonakodott, Eszter unszolása és saját tudományos kíváncsisága miatt végül beadta a derekát.En: Although Bence was initially reluctant, Eszter's urging and his own scientific curiosity eventually made him give in.Hu: „Rendben van, de csak óvatosan!” — mondta, miután bólintott.En: "Alright, but only if we're careful," he said after nodding.Hu: Egy csónakot béreltek a közelben.En: They rented a boat nearby.Hu: A víz halkan csobogott a hajó alatt, miközben elindultak a sejtelmes fény felé.En: The water gently splashed under the boat as they headed towards the mysterious light.Hu: A köd mindent körülvett, ami kicsit ijesztő, de éppoly lenyűgöző is volt.En: The fog surrounded everything, which was a little frightening but equally mesmerizing.Hu: Ahogy egyre közeledtek, a fény forrása világosan kezdett kibontakozni.En: As they got closer, the source of the light began to clearly unravel.Hu: Egy ritka természeti jelenséget találtak.En: They found a rare natural phenomenon.Hu: A fényt egy különleges kristályos jégképződmény hozta létre, amelyen a kevéske holdfény csillant meg.En: The light was created by a unique crystalline ice formation that reflected the scant moonlight.Hu: Az egész úgy festett, mint egy égi látomás.En: The whole scene looked like a heavenly vision.Hu: Bence ledöbbent. „Ez valami rendkívüli! Ilyen ritkán fordul elő!” Most már ő is rácsodálkozott a természet megmagyarázhatatlan varázsára.En: Bence was astonished. "This is extraordinary! It happens so rarely!" Now he also marveled at the inexplicable magic of nature.Hu: Eszter mosolygott. Ő már látta, hogyan válik ez a különleges látvány egy új festménnyé.En: Eszter smiled. She could already see how this extraordinary sight would become a new painting.Hu: Visszatérve a partra Bence elismerte: „Igazad volt, Eszter! Nem mindig szabad mindent logikával magyarázni. Néha a kíváncsiság is csodákra vezethet.”En: Returning to the shore, Bence admitted, "You were right, Eszter! Not everything should always be explained with logic. Sometimes curiosity can lead to wonders."Hu: Eszter boldogan ölelte át a barátját: „És én is tanultam valamit. Az óvatosság sem árt az ilyen kalandoknál.”En: Eszter happily embraced her friend: "And I learned something, too. Caution doesn't hurt in such adventures."Hu: Mindketten megtapasztalták a szélsőségek határát – Eszter kalandvágya és Bence racionalitása egy különleges egyensúlyba került.En: Both experienced the boundaries of extremes—Eszter's adventurous spirit and Bence's rationality found a unique balance.Hu: Így, a havas Balaton partján, az esemény különleges emlékké vált számukra.En: Thus, on the snowy shores of Balaton, the event became a special memory for them.Hu: Az éjszaka nemcsak egy új festményt, hanem egy új perspektívát adott Bencének és Eszternek is.En: The night gave not only a new painting but also a new perspective to Bence and Eszter.Hu: Emelt fővel, kissé átfagyva, de szívvel-lélekkel gazdagodva tértek haza.En: They returned home with heads held high, slightly frozen, but enriched in heart and soul.

So grab your headphones and let's patch things up, because we're about to make drywalling fun—yes, you heard that right! When it comes to drywall, everyone thinks they can tackle it, right?

Authority-building has entered a new era—visibility hinges on context and credibility, and your expertise must be discoverable not just to humans but to machines. In this episode of The Trending Communicator, host Dan Nestle explores these seismic changes with Stephanie Grober, Marketing and PR Director at the Horowitz Agency and a true trailblazer in legal and professional services PR. Stephanie has mastered the art (and science) of making experts both visible and quotable, securing more than 200 high-impact media placements in a single year while connecting the dots between traditional PR and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO). She was already making her clients discoverable to the machines before most of us had even heard of ChatGPT. Listen in and hear about: How traditional media relations thrives by blending strategic expertise with authentic human connection Why building credibility and visibility is essential for experts aiming to shape public narratives What role generative engine optimization (GEO) plays in making experts visible to AI-driven search How the definition of newsworthiness is shifting amid a relentless, minute-by-minute news cycle Why earned media placements influence discoverability but are not a magic bullet for GEO How leveraging both personal and firm branding helps legal and professional services stand out What opportunities and risks AI introduces for PR professionals, reporters, and the stories they tell Notable Quotes On the rapidly changing news cycle: "Evergreen stories...there's no room for them right now. Think about how much news, how much breaking news is coming at us. The news cycle doesn't even feel like 24 hours. It feels like 24 minutes." [00:12:09 - 00:12:27] On the human element in PR (and reluctance to let AI take over): "PR is still very human...We aren't using it to pitch. And I'll say that there are some agencies that may be writing their pitches with AI. We are not. And that is a choice. We want to stand out as being authentic and human." [00:19:36 - 00:20:58] On why traditional PR isn't dead—it's evolving: "It's a science and an art is what I like to say. Every time we try to make it a science, it shows us that it is an art and vice versa." [00:27:25 - 00:27:45] On discoverability in the era of AI: "We've been training the LLMs this entire time without realizing it. So for us, you know, some of the ways our clients have been referred to colloquially, you know, now that's how they're being discovered in a generative summary."

In season 6 Episode 6 I am delighted to welcome Graham Walker, MD to the podcast. Dr Walker is an emergency physician by clinical background who practices in San Francisco, completing his medical school training at Stanford University School of Medicine. He also majored in social policy as an undergraduate and has had a life long interest in software development and digital technology. Today he combines these interests and skills in his clinical and non-clinical roles.Graham is the co-director of Advanced Development at The Permanente Medical Group (TPMG), which delivers care for Kaiser Permanente's 4.6 million members in Northern California. At TPMG, Graham works on practical AI development, commercialization, partnerships, and technology transformation under the Chief Innovation Officer. As a clinical informaticist, he also leads emergency and urgent care strategy for KP's electronic medical record. With an appetite and aptitude for tech innovation and entrepreneurship Dr Walker created and founded MDCalc as a resident, a free online clinical decision support tool many clinicians including myself have been using for years now, indeed MDCalc turned 20 this month.More recently Graham co-founded the platform and community Offcall with a mission to bring joy back to medicine and facilitate contract transparency and financial literacy for US medical practitioners. These two online resources are dedicated to helping physicians globally. In his free time Graham writes about the intersection of AI, technology, and medicine, and created The Physicians' Charter for Responsible AI, a practical guide to implementing safe, accurate, and fair AI in healthcare settings.In this conversation I have an opportunity to explore Dr Walkers perspective at the intersection of AI, technology and medicine and revisit some emerging themes from season 6 in relation to leading change and innovation in complex, siloed healthcare systems. We discuss the challenges of communicating change efforts in this context and Graham shares his practical pearls for elevating clinical voices and translating information across disparate stakeholder groups. With a unique leadership role in his own organisation in this space I was keen to explore his perspectives on creating opportunities for intrapreneurship. Dr Walker is a globally respective clinical voice on AI in healthcare and we discuss the perils and promise of AI , the Physician Charter for responsible use of AI in medicine and his Offcall survey and pending report on physicians views on the technology application and implementation in medicine ( now published and linked below) Finally it is Graham's mission to bring joy and humanity back to medicine and to use technology responsibly to augment the clinician experience and skillset enabling safer and higher quality care that is the major draw for me. Thank you Dr Walker for you work which has global relevance and reach.Links / References:https://drgrahamwalker.comhttps://www.offcall.comThe Mind Full Medic Podcast is proudly sponsored by the MBA NSW-ACT Find out more about the charitable organisation supporting doctors and their families and/ or donate today at www.mbansw.org.auDisclaimer: The content in this podcast is not intended to constitute or be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.

When science and art meet they create a nexus where inspiration and education combine to create impactful outcomes. From illustrated ID guides to building-sized murals, art has been interwoven into science communications for thousands of years and its value has continued to persist. Xerces has harnessed the power of images and we are excited to explore this topic.In this episode, we are sitting down with Jane Kim and Thayer Walker, who founded Ink Dwell, an art studio that produces stunning murals and other works that celebrate the natural world. Jane is a visual artist and science illustrator. She received a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Printmaking from Rhode Island School of Design and then attended California State University Monterey Bay, where she earned a master's certificate in science illustration. She has created large-scale public art across the country, including the Wall of Birds at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology in Ithaca, and produced works for the National Aquarium in Baltimore, the de Young Museum in San Francisco, and more. Thayer manages Ink Dwell's operations and is an author and correspondent who has written about science, adventure, exploration, and the natural world for nearly two decades—and along the way had some adventures of his own. (I read something about 20 days on a desert island and escaping the jaws of a jaguar…) With Jane, he co-authored The Wall of Birds, a book about that monumental mural at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology.---Photo: Benjamin ZackThank you for listening!

In this uplifting, research-rich conversation, Dr. Dori Mintzer talks with gerontologist Dr. Kerry Burnight, author of JoySpan: The Art and Science of Thriving in Life's Second Half. Together they explore how to move beyond fear and decline-based views of aging and instead cultivate dignity, health, and joy throughout a longer life.Dr. Kerry explains “JoySpan” as enduring well-being and contentment, an inside-out joy that can coexist with grief, illness, and real-life challenges, distinct from both lifespan and healthspan. She introduces the JoySpan Matrix of four internal strengths: Grow, Connect, Adapt, and Give, sharing practical, everyday ways listeners can keep learning, build nourishing relationships, enhance coping skills, and create meaning and legacy in later life.Through stories from her decades of work in gerontology and powerful research findings on mindset and aging, Dr. Kerry shows how internalized ageism and a “decline aging mindset” can limit both length and quality of life, and what it looks like to replace fear with agency, curiosity, community, and conscious preparation for our future selves. Listeners come away with simple, doable practices, like gratitude, reaching out to others, and starting or joining circles and book groups, to expand their own JoySpan at any age.About the guestDr. Kerry Burnight (“Dr. Kerry”) is a gerontologist on a mission to “make older better.” She taught geriatric medicine and gerontology for 18 years at the University of California, Irvine School of Medicine, co‑founded the nation's first Elder Abuse Forensic Center, and founded TheGerontologist.com.Recognized as “America's gerontologist,” she has been an invited speaker at the White House Elder Justice Summit and the U.S. Department of Justice, and has appeared on CBS News, NBC News, The Doctors, Money Matters, and The Dr. Phil Show.

Comment on this episode by going to KDramaChat.comToday, we have a special episode of K Drama Chat where we're joined by longtime listener, friend, and screenwriter, Ellen Sullivan. We talk about the art and science of screenwriting and how the best K Dramas follow—or creatively depart from—dramatic structure to deliver compelling, emotional stories. In this episode, we discuss:The shows that are heavily spoiled in this episode: Crash Landing On You, Mr. Queen, Mr. Sunshine, When the Phone Rings, and Captivating the King.Ellen's background as a screenwriter and technical writer, and how her passion for K Dramas began with My Mister.The Western three-act structure versus the Korean four-act structure (gi-seung-jeon-gyeol), and how each style approaches storytelling and character development.Detailed examples of setup, midpoint, and conclusion in Crash Landing On You, Mr. Queen, and Mr. Sunshine.What makes these shows work: believable character arcs, clear motivations, strong midpoint turns, and emotional payoffs.The redemption arc as a dramatic formula, especially in characters like Gu Seung-jun (CLOY) and Jang Bong-hwan (Mr. Queen).Why humor breaks are essential in Korean dramas and how they add richness to character and story.Foreshadowing and payoffs (or lack thereof) in When the Phone Rings, and why the “Argan” plot twist derailed the show.The pacing and structural missteps in Captivating the King, including over-explaining, weak female lead development, and a lack of trust in the audience.The importance of a “MacGuffin” in each drama—a central object or goal everyone is chasing.How K Dramas “trust the audience” by skipping mundane scenes and using implication rather than exposition.The emotional power of music in K Dramas, especially in Mr. Queen, CLOY, and Mr. Sunshine, and how it enhances tone and viewer engagement.Why well-crafted character interaction reveals motivation better than exposition.The writing mantra: “Make me care.” How the best dramas engage our emotions without making us think about structure until the end.What we're watching now, including Bon Appetit, Heavenly Ever After, Typhoon Family, Because This is My First Life, Signal, and Will You Marry Me.A big reveal: the next K Drama we'll be recapping in Season 13! You have to listen to find out!

In this episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta Yadav sits down with Giovanna McCarthy, founder of PDO Max, to uncover the history, science, and artistry behind one of modern aesthetics' most transformative tools — PDO threads. With over forty years of experience in medical aesthetics, Giovanna shares how her early exposure to European skincare and her mother's story of burn recovery shaped a lifelong mission to heal, restore, and innovate.What began with some of the first U.S. day spas in the 1990s evolved into a pioneering medical aesthetics brand leading the way in regenerative skin lifting. At PDO Max, Giovanna introduced dissolvable polydioxanone threads, designed to stimulate collagen and elastin production for natural structure and rejuvenation — not to replace surgery, but to support it. “Threads aren't about pulling,” she says. “They're about rebuilding.”Giovanna also dives into the cellular science behind this subtle transformation — how PDO threads ignite healing responses that restore turgor, elasticity, and dermal vitality. Her philosophy is one of balance: rebuild, don't overcorrect. “Too much trauma, too fast, can strip the skin of life,” she warns.Expanding into regenerative skincare, PDO Max now offers post-procedure formulas powered by PDRN, a DNA compound long used in burn medicine to accelerate repair and recovery.Tune in to hear how Giovanna McCarthy is bridging medicine, artistry, and innovation — redefining modern aesthetics through education, collaboration, and true cellular regeneration.Learn more about PDO Max on their website and social media!CHAPTERS:0:02 – Introduction & Guest Welcome0:44 – Giovanna's Early Inspiration & European Roots1:45 – The Birth of Medical Aesthetics in the U.S.3:47 – Evolution of Skin & Surgery Synergy7:15 – The Role of Estheticians in Surgical Outcomes7:20 – Understanding PDO Threads & Industry Misconceptions10:11 – The Art and Precision of Thread Technique14:27 – Structural Science: Ligaments, Fat Pads & Lift Mechanics17:23 – Cellular Regeneration & Collagen Stimulation18:58 – Advancing Skin Quality: PDO Glow, LúmEnvy & PDRN InnovationPlease fill out this survey to give us feedback on the show!Don't forget to subscribe to Skin Anarchy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform.Reach out to us through email with any questions.Sign up for our newsletter!Shop all our episodes and products mentioned through our ShopMy Shelf!

In this episode of Great Women in Compliance, host Sarah Hadden sits down with Nicole Rose—lawyer, artist, author, and creator of the FRAME Training Method—to explore how human behavior, psychology, and creativity can transform compliance from a checkbox exercise into a movement that drives real change. Nicole shares the story behind her “Moneyball Compliance” approach, showing how small, measurable behaviors can predict integrity, build stronger cultures, and make ethics training finally stick. The two also discuss Nicole's upcoming book, Told: How In-House Legal and Compliance Professionals Secure Airtime, Gain Traction, and Transform Organizations. Four Takeaways: 1. Compliance Is About People, Not Policies Nicole's journey from lawyer to artist to compliance innovator reveals that effective compliance starts with understanding human behavior and culture—not just ticking boxes or enforcing rules. 2. Behavior Beats Metrics Traditional compliance programs measure completion rates; Nicole's “Moneyball Compliance” approach measures behaviors that predict integrity—like speaking up, giving feedback, and practicing micro-activities that build ethical “muscle memory.” 3. Curiosity Is the Secret Ingredient Engagement happens when employees are curious. Nicole emphasizes creating “pre-frames” that connect compliance messages to what people already know and care about, making training meaningful and memorable. 4. Make It Real, Not Funny Humor has its place in presentations, but when it comes to serious topics like bribery, privacy, or human rights, authenticity and relatability are far more powerful than laughs. Real characters and relatable stories drive real change.
Host Jeremy Quinby has a conversation with Dr. Vanashree Gadam, founder of Vanashree Ayurveda in Minnetonka Minnesota.

Now settled in Minnesota she seeks to educate and bring her passion for this holistic modality to the forefront of medicine. https://vanashreeayurveda.com

In this episode of The Nonprofit Exchange, I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Tom Collins, a physician, educator, and leadership scholar who has developed a transformational framework called the "Four Stars of Leadership." Drawing from his extensive interviews with America's top four-star generals and admirals, Dr. Collins identified four essential dimensions of leadership: character, competence, caring, and communication. We explored how these principles can be applied not only in the military but also in the nonprofit and faith-based sectors, where leaders often face unique challenges such as limited resources and high accountability. Dr. Collins emphasized the importance of setting clear expectations and building trust through character, which is foundational for effective leadership. He also highlighted the distinction between professional competence and leadership competence, noting that excelling in one area does not automatically translate to success in the other. Throughout our conversation, we discussed common mistakes leaders make, such as relying too heavily on positional authority, and the impact of blind spots on leadership effectiveness. Dr. Collins underscored the value of humility as a strength and the need for leaders to be self-aware and authentic. As we wrapped up, Dr. Collins shared insights about his website, FourStarLeaders.com, where listeners can find resources, his podcast, and information about his book, "The Four Stars of Leadership." This episode serves as a reminder that effective leadership is about influencing others to achieve mutually beneficial goals, and that the principles of character, competence, caring, and communication are vital for success in any organization.

Renovation or rebuild? That's the question many homeowners face when their current space no longer meets their needs. In this episode, Donnie and E break down the fundamentals of home renovation, sharing insider knowledge that helps you make informed decisions about transforming your living spaces.The kitchen remains renovation central for most homeowners, but approaches have evolved. Rather than gutting everything, strategic updates to cabinets, countertops, and backsplashes can deliver dramatic results without breaking the bank. Small changes like hardware upgrades or cabinet painting offer budget-friendly alternatives, though Donnie cautions that even seemingly minor updates can add up quickly when multiplied across an entire kitchen.Master bathroom renovations reveal fascinating shifts in homeowner preferences. The once-coveted soaker tub is rapidly losing popularity, with many choosing to replace these rarely-used fixtures with expansive walk-in showers. This transformation typically involves converting the tub area to a shower while repurposing the original shower space for additional storage – a perfect example of how renovations can improve both aesthetics and functionality.Perhaps most surprising is the dining room revolution. As formal dining becomes increasingly rare in busy households, these spaces often sit unused. Creative homeowners are converting dining rooms into valuable additions: extra bedrooms that boost home value, expanded kitchen areas with island seating, or oversized pantries that keep countertops clutter-free. These adaptations reflect evolving lifestyle needs while maximizing every square foot.For exterior updates, deck renovations deliver exceptional return on investment. Donnie shares a brilliant hack from a viral Instagram post: flipping weathered deck boards to expose the less-damaged underside, then sanding and sealing for several more years of life. It's this kind of practical, money-saving advice that makes renovation accessible to more homeowners.Whether you're considering minor updates or contemplating a complete rebuild, this episode provides the guidance you need to approach your project with confidence.
