Podcasts about Asana

We've talked about what the eight limbs of yoga are and where they came from (if you missed that episode just scroll a few back) but what is each limb's practical, energetic, and spiritual significance in modern life? From the ethical and personal observances of Yama and Niyama, respectively, to the physical aspects of Asana, the breath control of Pranayama, and the mental focus of Dharana. And of course how it all culminates in the exploration of Dhyana and Samadhi. The Eight Limbs are here to help you cut through the noise and come back to what really matters, this episode will explain how. Listen and learn:

Are you stuck in a cycle of trying out new project management tools—Trello, Asana, Notion—only to abandon them weeks later? You're not alone. No tool will save your writing or publication pipeline if you haven't first developed core project management skills. In this episode, I explain why building project management skills must come before adopting a project management tool. If you're feeling overwhelmed with your writing tasks, due dates, or collaborative projects, it's not because you haven't found the “right” app—it's because foundational skills like discernment and time management aren't fully developed yet. Before you invest energy (and money) in the latest software, you need clarity on how you work and how to support your writing with solid workflows. Tune in to learn how to build the academic project management skills that will advance your writing and publication projects, allowing you to select a project management tool that works with you, not against you.

This week we talk about the Marshall Plan, standardization, and USB.We also discuss artificial intelligence, Anthropic, and protocols.Recommended Book: Fuzz by Mary RoachTranscriptIn the wake of WWII, the US government implemented the European Recovery Program, more commonly known as the Marshall Plan, to help Western Europe recover from a conflict that had devastated the afflicted countries' populations, infrastructure, and economies.It kicked off in April of 1948, and though it was replaced by a successor program, the Mutual Security Act, just three years later in 1951—which was similar to the Marshall Plan, but which had a more militant, anti-communism bent, the idea being to keep the Soviets from expanding their influence across the continent and around the world—the general goal of both programs was similar: the US was in pretty good shape, post-war, and in fact by waiting to enter as long as it did, and by becoming the arsenal of the Allied side in the conflict, its economy was flourishing, its manufacturing base was all revved up and needed something to do with all the extra output capacity it had available, all the resources committed to producing hardware and food and so on, so by sharing these resources with allies, by basically just giving a bunch of money and assets and infrastructural necessities to these European governments, the US could get everybody on side, bulwarked against the Soviet Union's counterinfluence, at a moment in which these governments were otherwise prone to that influence; because they were suffering and weaker than usual, and thus, if the Soviets came in with the right offer, or with enough guns, they could conceivably grab a lot of support and even territory. So it was considered to be in everyone's best interest, those who wanted to keep the Soviet Union from expanding, at least, to get Europe back on its feet, posthaste.So this program, and its successor program, were highly influential during this period, and it's generally considered to be one of the better things the US government has done for the world, as while there were clear anti-Soviet incentives at play, it was also a relatively hands-off, large-scale give-away that favorably compared with the Soviets' more demanding and less generous version of the same.One interesting side effect of the Marshall Plan is that because US manufacturers were sending so much stuff to these foreign ports, their machines and screws and lumber used to rebuild entire cities across Europe, the types of machines and screws and lumber, which were the standard models of each in the US, but many of which were foreign to Europe at the time, became the de facto standard in some of these European cities, as well.Such standards aren't always the best of all possible options, sometimes they stick around long past their period of ideal utility, and they don't always stick, but the standards and protocols within an industry or technology do tend to shape that industry or technology's trajectory for decades into the future, as has been the case with many Marshall Plan-era US standards that rapidly spread around the world as a result of these giveaways.And standards and protocols are what I'd like to talk about today. In particular a new protocol that seems primed to shape the path today's AI tools are taking.—Today's artificial intelligence, or AI, which is an ill-defined type of software that generally refers to applications capable of doing vaguely human-like things, like producing text and images, but also somewhat superhuman things, like working with large data-sets and bringing meaning to them, are developing rapidly, becoming more potent and capable seemingly every day.This period of AI development has been in the works for decades, and the technologies required to make the current batch of generative AI tools—the type that makes stuff based on libraries of training data, deriving patterns from that data and then coming up with new stuff based on the prompting of human users—were originally developed in the 1970s, but the transformer, which was a fresh approach to what's called deep learning architectures, was first proposed in 2017 by a researcher at Google, and that led to the development of the generative pre-trained transformer, or GPT, in 2018.The average non-tech-world person probably started to hear about this generation of AI tools a few years later, maybe when the first transformer-based voice and image tools started popping up around the internet, mostly as novelties, or even more likely in late-2022 when OpenAI released the first version of ChatGPT, a generative AI system attached to a chatbot interface, which made these sorts of tools more accessible to the average person.Since then, there's been a wave of investment and interest in AI tools, and we've reached a point where the seemingly obvious next-step is removing humans from the loop in more AI-related processes.What that means in practice is that while today these tools require human prompting for most of what they do—you have to ask an AI for a specific image, then ask it to refine that image in order to customize it for your intended use-case, for instance—it's possible to have AI do more things on their own, working from broader instructions to refine their creations themselves over multiple steps and longer periods of time.So rather than chatting with an AI to come up with a marketing plan for your business, prompting it dozens or hundreds of times to refine the sales copy, the logo, the images for the website, the code for the website, and so on, you might tell an AI tool that you're building a business that does X and ask it to spin up all the assets that you need. From there, the AI might research what a new business in that industry requires, make all the assets you need for it, go back and tweak all those assets based on feedback from other AI tools, and then deploy those assets for you on web hosting services, social media accounts, and the like.It's possible that at some point these tools could become so capable in this regard that humans won't need to be involved at all, even for the initial ideation. You could ask an AI what sorts of businesses make sense at the moment, and tell it to build you a dozen minimum viable products for those businesses, and then ask it to run those businesses for you—completely hands off, except for the expressing your wishes part, almost like you're working with a digital genie.At the moment, components of that potential future are possible, but one of the main things standing in the way is that AI systems largely aren't agentic enough, which in this context means they need a lot of hand-holding for things that a human being would be capable of doing, but which they largely, with rare exceptions, aren't yet, and they often don't have the permission or ability to interact with other tools required to do that kind of building—and that includes things like the ability to create a business account on Shopify, but also the ability to access and handle money, which would be required to set up business and bank accounts, to receive money from customers, and so on.This is changing at a rapid pace, and more companies are making their offerings accessible to specific AI tools; Shopify has deployed its own cluster of internal AI systems, for instance, meant to manage various aspects of a business its customers perch on its platform.What's missing right now, though, is a unifying scaffolding that allows these services and assets and systems to all play nice with each other.And that's the issue the Model Context Protocol is meant to address.The Model Context Protocol, or MCP, is a standard developed by AI company Anthropic, and it's open and designed to be universal. The company intends for it to be the mycelium that connects large language model-based AI to all sorts of data and tools and other systems, a bit like the Hypertext Transfer Protocol, or HTTP, allows data on the web to be used and shared and processed, universally, in a standardized way, and to dip back into the world of physical objects, how standardized shipping containers make global trade a lot more efficient because everyone's working with the same sized boxes, cargo vessels, and so on.The Universal Serial Bus standard, usually shorthanded as USB, is also a good comparison here, as the USB was introduced to replaced a bunch of other standards in the early days of personal computing, which varied by computer maker, and which made it difficult for those makers, plus those who developed accessories, to make their products accessible and inexpensive for end-users, as you might buy a mouse that doesn't work with your specific computer hardware, or you might have a cable that fits in the hole on your computer, but doesn't send the right amount of data, or provide the power you need.USB standards ensured that all devices had the same holes, and that a certain basic level of data and power transmission would be available. And while this standard has since fractured a bit, a period of many different types of USB leading to a lot of confusion, and the deployment of the USB C standard simplying things somewhat, but still being a bit confounding at times, as the same shaped plug may carry different amounts of data and power, despite all that, it has still made things a lot easier for both consumers and producers of electronic goods, as there are fewer plugs and charger types to purchase, and thus less waste, confusion, and so on. We've moved on from the wild west era of computer hardware connectivity into something less varied and thus, more predictable and interoperable.The MCP, if it's successful, could go on to be something like the USB standard in that it would serve as a universal connector between various AI systems and all the things you might want those AI systems to access and use.That might mean you want one of Anthropic's AI systems to build you a business, without you having to do much or anything at all, and it may be capable of doing so, asking you questions along the way if it requires more clarity or additional permissiosn—to open a bank account in your name, for instance—but otherwise acting more agentically, as intended, even to the point that it could run social media accounts, work with manufacturers of the goods you sell, and handle customer service inquiries on your behalf.What makes this standard a standout compared to other options, though—and there are many other proposed options, right now, as this space is still kind of a wild west—is that though it was developed by Anthropic, which originally made it to work with its Claude family of AI tools, it has since also been adopted by OpenAI, Google DeepMind, and several of the other largest players in the AI world.That means, although there are other options here, all with their own pros and cons, as was the case with USB compared to other connection options back in the day, MCP is usable with many of the biggest and most spendy and powerful entities in the AI world, right now, and that gives it a sort of credibility and gravity that the other standards don't currently enjoy.This standard is also rapidly being adopted by companies like Block, Apollo, PayPal, CloudFlare, Asana, Plaid, and Sentry, among many, many others—including other connectors, like Zapier, which basically allows stuff to connect to other stuff, further broadening the capacity of AI tools that adopt this standard.While this isn't a done deal, then, there's a good chance that MCP will be the first big connective, near-universal standard in this space, which in turn means many of the next-step moves and tools in this space will need to work with it, in order to gain adoption and flourish, and that means, like the standards spread around the world by the Marshall Plan, it will go on to shape the look and feel and capabilities, including the limitations, of future AI tools and scaffoldings.Show Noteshttps://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2025/04/mcp-the-new-usb-c-for-ai-thats-bringing-fierce-rivals-together/https://blog.cloudflare.com/remote-model-context-protocol-servers-mcp/https://oldvcr.blogspot.com/2025/05/what-went-wrong-with-wireless-usb.htmlhttps://arxiv.org/html/2504.16736v2https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_Context_Protocol#cite_note-anthropic_mcp-1https://github.com/modelcontextprotocolhttps://www.anthropic.com/news/integrationshttps://www.theverge.com/2024/11/25/24305774/anthropic-model-context-protocol-data-sourceshttps://beebom.com/model-context-protocol-mcp-explained/https://techcrunch.com/2025/03/26/openai-adopts-rival-anthropics-standard-for-connecting-ai-models-to-data/https://techcrunch.com/2025/04/09/google-says-itll-embrace-anthropics-standard-for-connecting-ai-models-to-data/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generative_artificial_intelligencehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USBhttps://www.archives.gov/milestone-documents/marshall-planhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marshall_Planhttps://www.congress.gov/crs-product/R45079https://www.ebsco.com/research-starters/history/marshall-planhttps://www.history.com/articles/marshall-plan This is a public episode.

In this episode of The Systematic Leader, I sat down with Jason Bryll of Parable Associates to dive deep into how businesses can leverage structured learning, automation, and data-driven decision-making to improve efficiency and drive growth. 1. Why Systems-Driven Learning Matters Most businesses focus on execution, but structured learning opportunities create long-term success. Jason shared how his company builds intentional learning structures to empower employees and improve client outcomes: Monthly Learning Days – Employees dedicate time to learning skills like SQL or Python.Onboarding Checklists & Training Videos – New hires ramp up faster with customized learning paths.Internal Knowledge Sharing – "Show and Tell" sessions encourage employees to share insights from client projects. Key Takeaway: A culture of learning creates a smarter, more adaptable workforce. 2. Automating the Repetitive: The Power of RPA We also discussed Robotic Process Automation (RPA)—a game-changer for businesses drowning in repetitive tasks. Example: Jason's team automated insurance claim follow-ups for healthcare practices, reducing manual work and freeing up staff for higher-value tasks. 3. Data-Driven Decision-Making Smart leaders don't just collect data—they use it. Jason shared how Parable Associates builds feedback loops to refine their systems: Monthly Executive Leadership Committee (ELC) Meetings – Full-day strategic planning powered by data. Asana for Tracking Agenda Items – Ensures important issues are discussed. Employee Pulse Surveys – Five quick questions every month to gauge team sentiment. Key Takeaway: Reviewing data consistently leads to smarter business decisions. 4. Content as a System: Turning Knowledge into Assets Another key topic? Using structured content marketing to improve client engagement and training. Custom training videos – Used for internal learning and as a value-add for clients. Monthly blog performance reviews – Analyzing read counts and engagement to refine content strategy. Exploring a YouTube channel – Jason is considering a healthcare operations and data management content hub. Key Takeaway: Content isn't just marketing—it's a business asset. Learn more about Jason Bryll over at Parable Associates. You can also connect with him on LinkedIn.  You can get the Magnetic Systems Method (and other systems guides) to find issues before they become expensive problems.

As we go deeper on the spiritual path—whether through yoga, meditation, or self-inquiry—we often discover a paradox: We feel more peace… but we also feel more pain. The highs become transcendent. The lows, unbearable. We start to feel everything more intensely. This intensity is not a mistake. It is the heart of the path.   The Buddha says: you have felt more grief than the ocean holds water. This isn't just poetry. It's a spiritual earthquake. This is not to depress us, but to awaken us—to stir our hearts. This stirring is known in Buddhism as saṁvega.   This feeling—though unsettling—is a sacred catalyst. It's what Prince Siddhartha felt when he saw old age, sickness, and death. It's what every sincere practitioner eventually encounters: not just the suffering of the world, but the raw truth of our entanglement in it.   You begin to see the pain in pleasure—how even joy is tinged with impermanence.   You see the subtle violence of craving, the ache beneath distraction.   Your old ways of coping no longer work.   This is grace, not failure. Because only when we see duḥkha clearly, can we begin to walk a path beyond it. These are cracks in the illusion. And through those cracks, truth pours in. The practice is not to patch them up, but to stay open.   Yoga gives us a container:   Asana: to ground the body as emotion rises   Prāṇāyāma: to stabilize the nervous system as old energy releases   Meditation: to witness pain without collapsing into it   Bhakti: to open the heart in devotion rather than despair   And ultimately, viveka—discernment—so that we can feel the pain of the world without losing our place in it.   Practice LIVE with me exclusively on Omstars!

Running a business today can feel like you're trying to keep up with a hundred things at once—files are everywhere, your internet browser is packed with tabs, and your to-do list keeps growing. It's easy to feel overwhelmed and disorganized. That's where Shawn Lemon comes in. He's the founder of The Digital Organizer, and he's here to share his simple system—the four pillars of organization—to help you clean up the chaos and run your business more smoothly.Topics Covered In This Episode:The importance of communication, asset management, project/task management, and password organization and why they are essential components of business and life organization.Project vs. Task Management: Many people confuse projects with tasks. A project encompasses multiple tasks that need to be broken down to avoid overwhelm and to ensure completion.The importance of focusing on one key task per day (or up to three) to avoid distraction and ensure progress, especially important for those with ADHD.Keep email for communication, tasks in a project manager, and files in their designated storage system to prevent chaos.Use simple but effective systems to manage both life and business tasks. Consistency and routine can significantly help in staying organized.Using overly robust systems (like ClickUp) can lead to procrastination due to their complexity. Choose simpler tools like Asana to stay focused.Find the full show notes at:  https://brandimowles.com/252Loved This Episode?

On this episode of the CBJ podcast, host John Burgman and Jonathan Landis, the CEO of Greater Heights, talk about the winding path from an idea to the construction and, finally, the grand opening of a new climbing gym. Greater Heights opened in early December 2024 in Fitchburg, Wisconsin—which is right around Madison—and has ropes, boulders and auto belays. The climbing walls at the gym are from Rockwerx, the flooring is from Asana, and Rock Gym Pro is the management software. John and Jonathan chat all about the origin of Greater Heights and the origin of Jonathan's involvement with the gym. They discuss Jonathan's outlook on how climbing gyms are like a subscription service, in a way. They also focus on the Midwest as a good region for a climbing gym, and Jonathan, as a lifelong Midwesterner, offers some keen insights on getting one started.

SUMMARY: In this episode, Aaron and Terryn dive into the all-too-common struggle of "death by meetings" and share actionable strategies to reclaim your time and boost operational efficiency. Fresh off a whirlwind week of coast-to-coast travel and back-to-back meetings, Aaron and Terryn unpack the challenges of meeting overload and offer practical tips for business leaders, visionaries, and ops professionals alike.   From identifying when a meeting is truly necessary to defining clear deliverables and roles, they explore how to streamline communication and avoid the trap of endless, unproductive calls. Learn how the CoLab team leverages tools like Asana, Voxer, and Loom to cut down on unnecessary meetings, delegate effectively, and keep projects moving forward. They also discuss the importance of honoring the chain of command, respecting team downtime, and using structured systems like Level 10 meetings to foster accountability without micromanaging.   Key Takeaways: For Visionaries: Honor the chain of command by funneling ideas through your ops lead or executive assistant to avoid overwhelming your team. For Operators: Strategize rather than execute every task—delegate deliverables to the right team members to prevent burnout. For All Teams: Use automation and async tools (like voice memos or screen recordings) to share updates and reduce meeting fatigue. Pro Tip: Stick to a cadence like weekly Level 10 meetings to ensure accountability and clarity without derailing your team's focus. Tune in to discover how to escape the meeting marathon and create a more productive, intentional workflow for your business. Perfect for anyone looking to optimize operations and make every minute count!   Minute by Minute: 0:00 Introduction 2:09 How does one avoid death by a thousand meetings? 4:55 Who takes away deliverables from meetings? 11:12 How to avoid the meeting all together 16:35 Honor the chain of command 19:18 If you're gonna do a meeting, do it with structure 23:11 Action items from this conversation

Is your entrepreneur overflowing with ideas but feeling frustrated that no one is listening? This episode reveals how you can step up as a vital sounding board, transforming those fleeting thoughts into actionable plans. Entrepreneurial team expert Shannon Waller explains how enhancing your listening skills makes you an invaluable asset to your entrepreneur. While you get to collaborate creatively with your entrepreneur, you'll also usher in new solutions that drive growth for your company. Download Episode Transcript Show Notes: Be A Great Sounding Board Volunteer to listen: When your entrepreneur shares an idea, express interest in scheduling time to learn more about it. Capture ideas: Keep a running list of your entrepreneur's ideas in something that you can access from your phone, like Trello or Asana, anytime a new idea comes up. Before the discussion, make a note about what intrigued you about the idea or what questions you immediately have. Be present: Clear your mind and focus on the conversation. If you're distracted, your entrepreneur will sense it and share less. Listen generously: Use phrases like, “Tell me more” to invite deeper discussion. Lean in physically to show engagement. Create a safe space: Make it comfortable for the entrepreneur to express their thoughts, even if they lead to a “bad idea.” Capture the summary of main points: This is easy to do with Strategic Coach® tools, but even typing out the key points discussed afterwards takes the idea from the “make it up” stage closer to “make it real.” Characteristics Of A Great Listener Enthusiastic and curious: Show genuine interest in the ideas being shared. Translates back: Reflect back what you hear using phrases such as, “It seems like … ” or “It sounds like … ” Great interviewing skills: Ask questions about what intrigues you and what the context is—what the problem is that this idea solves. Or, repeat the last three words to confirm that you're listening and encourage further expansion. Add your viewpoint: Adding your own thoughts shows you're listening and thinking about what is said. Tools For Effective Conversations Use Strategic Coach tools: Tools such as The Strategy Circle and Impact Filter can help guide discussions. The Strategy Circle®: Identify goals, obstacles, and strategies. The Impact Filter™: Discuss the purpose, importance, ideal outcome, and success criteria. Certainty/Uncertainty Focus: Explore what is known and unknown about the idea to get more clarity about who should be doing what. Approach With The Right Mindset Be curious, not ego-driven: Focus on the entrepreneur's ideas rather than seeking personal recognition. Use your strengths: No matter your strengths, lean in to them to balance your entrepreneur's strengths. Enjoy the process: Embrace the creative act of ideation with your entrepreneur. Be open: Keep an open mind to new ideas, but also be willing to let them go if they turn out to be not worth pursuing. Final Thoughts Transformational impact: Your role as a sounding board can lead to significant breakthroughs for the entrepreneur and the team. Recognize your skills: You may already possess these listening skills. Acknowledge and enhance them for greater impact. Make it real: Your engagement can help flesh out creative ideas by taking them out of the headspace and into the action space.

A moderate evening flow. Lunging and folding up front, deep into the hips down the back end. 

In today's fast-paced world, where multitasking is the norm and stress is a constant companion, finding effective ways to manage our mental and physical health is crucial. One increasingly popular approach is through the power of breathwork. I had the privilege to sit down with Sarah Hutcherson, founder of Slo Breathworks, to explore its transformative potential. She shares how her journey from playing basketball and teaching Asana yoga to navigating the challenges of long Covid led her to discover the healing power of conscious breathing. We also discuss how she integrates breathwork into her daily practices to manage stress and build resilience, exploring the deep connection between breath and healing, emotional processing, and finding balance in life.

A moderate, uncomplicated one on a rainy day. 

In this week's episode,  I'm talking to mi hermana Dominicana, Tiffany Leonardo, a healthcare educator who pivoted from teaching healthcare to teaching self-care. Tiffany tells us all about her career in healthcare, what it was like growing up as a first-gen daughter who was a little different than everyone else, and how she found that her family was living a life of dis-ease after three family members were diagnosed with cancer. Tune into this episode as we laugh, vibe, and unpack everything from sound healing, medical astrology, and of course, being a first-gen Latina navigating it all on her own.  Tiffany's extensive time in the operating room has fueled her passion for teaching and deepened her understanding of stress and its detrimental impact on the body. Believing that blossoming as a teacher requires being a devoted student of life, Tiffany has completed various training modalities. Her studies include Katonah Yoga with Mary Dana Abbott, Art of Assisting from Baron Baptiste Yoga, and Anatomy & Asana immersion with Emilie Perz. She has also undergone Breathwork training with Marlize Joubert, intensive Yin Yoga training with Yoga Loft, Qigong with Mark Tanaka, Sound Healing with Susy Markoe Schieffelin, and an apprenticeship in Acupressure and Yoga integration with Hydra Yoga. In essence, Tiffany's dream is to inspire individuals to explore and discover their fullest selves through a deeper connection with their mind and body, no matter the environment.
