PRODUCTION CREDITS Host: Lindsey Dinneen Editing: Marketing Wise Producer: Velentium EPISODE TRANSCRIPT Episode 059 - Jessica Richter [00:00:00] Lindsey Dinneen: Hi, I'm Lindsey and I'm talking with MedTech industry leaders on how they change lives for a better world. [00:00:09] Diane Bouis: The inventions and technologies are fascinating and so are the people who work with them. [00:00:15] Frank Jaskulke: There was a period of time where I realized, fundamentally, my job was to go hang out with really smart people that are saving lives and then do work that would help them save more lives. [00:00:28] Diane Bouis: I got into the business to save lives and it is incredibly motivating to work with people who are in that same business, saving or improving lives. [00:00:38] Duane Mancini: What better industry than where I get to wake up every day and just save people's lives. [00:00:42] Lindsey Dinneen: These are extraordinary people doing extraordinary work, and this is The Leading Difference. Hello and welcome back to another episode of The Leading Difference podcast. I'm your host, Lindsey, and today I'm excited to introduce you to my guest, Jessica Richter. Jessica is the Executive Vice President and General Manager at Veranex, a global provider of end-to-end solutions that accelerate MedTech innovation through deep expertise and integrated resources. As the leader of Veranex's contract research organization and consulting services business unit, she oversees clinical trial strategy and execution, clinical data services, regulatory affairs, quality and compliance, market access and reimbursement. She also manages operations, client engagement, business development and performance tracking. A seasoned leader in medical devices and diagnostics, Jessica has extensive experience in software as a medical device, surgical innovation, oncology, aesthetics, cardiology and gastroenterology. Her tenure at Medtronic and Becton Dickinson shaped her expertise in commercialization, sales strategy, physician education, patient advocacy, and change management. Beyond her current role, Jessica serves on the boards of medtech, women and UCLA's technology development group. She actively advises startups, accelerators, and universities, including medtech innovator UC Berkeley's Master of Translational Medicine Program, the Mayo Clinic's Executive Steering Committee for the Surgical Innovation Summit, and UCLA BioDesign. Thank you so much for being here, Jessica. I'm so excited to speak with you. [00:02:15] Jessica Richter: Likewise, Lindsey, thank you so much for having me. [00:02:18] Lindsey Dinneen: Of course. Well, I'd love if you wouldn't mind sharing a little bit about yourself and your background and what led you to medtech. [00:02:26] Jessica Richter: Awesome. Yeah, happy to. So, I was born and raised in California. I am the youngest of three girls and my entire family is really in the healthcare delivery field. So both my grandfathers were surgeons. My mother is a nurse. Both my sisters are clinical psychologists. And so when I went to school, I had aspirations at one point to get into medicine, and then through a really challenging organic chemistry class, kind of started to realize that maybe the practice of medicine wasn't where I belonged. And so I initially graduated from Berkeley, had my sights set on potentially doing something in communications, and started off in business to business sales in the telecom industry. So as far from medtech as maybe one could think. Had some experience with software, this is when Blackberries were a thing, if you remember those. And then a friend of mine was a recruiter and reached out and said, "Hey, I, I know that you're into medical and into medicine, and that was something you were interested in. Have you ever considered a career in medical device sales?" And frankly I didn't even know that that existed. I mean, this was 20 years ago, so this was before, you know, internet and all of those things existed, obviously, but it wasn't as pervasive as it is now. And so I wasn't even aware that these jobs existed. The fact that you could be working on the delivery of care but not be a healthcare provider was an eyeopening moment. And so I got in and started actually working at a surgical company called Deval. It's part of CR Bard, which is now part of Becton Dickinson, and I cut my teeth in medical device sales. And then I went on to work in a commercial role within other companies Given Imaging, Covidian, Medtronic. I ascended to sales leadership, working with key opinion leaders, working on the patient advocacy side. And then about eight years ago, I had the opportunity through an organization that we'll talk a little bit more about, called MedtechWOMEN, that I was involved in to learn about a consultancy that was looking for a head of business development marketing. It was a small group called Experian Group. I joined them and then within nine months was promoted to Chief Operating Officer, which was a position that I absolutely loved because we were working on the pre-commercial side of things and regulatory quality systems, clinical trials. And I had always had experience in the post commercial side. So eyes open to what happens, everything leading up to commercial. And I got a masterclass from my colleagues there, learning so much about what happens again, pre-commercial. But then one of the other things that came out very quickly is I've always been someone who loves operational efficiency. And I know that's not sexy or cool, but I just like seeing something that isn't working optimally and get it working optimally is something that brings joy. So I had the opportunity to do that within Experian Group, and then really help the organization, which was already very successful, go from a very successful kind of local consultancy to a much larger, broader group with a broader footprint, more global client base. And then we were acquired by the firm that I currently work with called Veranex, and that really exploded capabilities of what was a 50% consultancy to now over a thousand people with a much broader global reach in the US, in Europe, and in India. [00:05:36] Lindsey Dinneen: Wow. That is incredible. Well, first of all, thank you for sharing your story and your background and all the amazing things that led you to where you are right now. That's incredible. So many questions, in a good way. But let's dive in a little bit about, yeah, so, so tell us a little bit more about your role right now, and what are you excited about as this consultancy continues to grow and new opportunities arise. What's on the future for you? [00:06:02] Jessica Richter: So now I lead one of three business units here at Veranex. So I lead our CRO and Consulting Services Business Unit, and that encompasses regulatory, quality, and clinical, as well as commercial strategy, market access reimbursement, things like coding, coverage, payment. So we help mid-size, early stage, and some of the largest strategic medtech companies, as well as some biopharma as well with companion diagnostics, navigate sometimes the tumultuous waters needed to bring a device from inception all the way through to commercialization. Veranex also has two other business units in preclinical as well as extensive design, development and engineering. So there's leaders in each of those capacities. And what we do on CRO and consulting services is really consultative. So we work with clients to develop strategies in all of these areas, and then we roll up our sleeves and work alongside them to make sure that those strategies are actually executable, so to help them along the way. And some of our clients have teams, so it's strategic and we're advisors. Other clients, if they're early, early, may not have extensive expertise or the ability to build out teams in that way. So we go in, or our team goes in, and really provides them that support along the entire continuum. It's interesting, just today, we have a client we've been working with for two years. They're in Switzerland, but they've been working with our US and global team. They just got news from FDA that they obtained FDA clearance. And I'll tell you, I think our team is as excited as theirs because, when you're in a company, it's all that you're living, breathing, doing. When you're consulting, you're a little bit at an arm's length. So when our clients achieve their results, and it's their work, but in concert with ours, the feeling of accomplishment really is just, it's one of those that's explosive. So we've celebrated that. We ring a bell. We'll share a lot, we'll do some marketing around it with this client. But it's really fun. That's the part that really drives not just me, but members of our team as to "How can we help more companies get more products to patients?" [00:07:58] Lindsey Dinneen: I love that. First of all, congratulations, that's exciting, and I'm thrilled for your clients and for you guys because it matters so much and what a great milestone. So that's wonderful. But yeah, so I'm curious, you've seen a lot of different sides to medtech and to the business side of things, and I'm curious what are some potential stumbling blocks that you have seen that companies, especially when they're perhaps a little bit younger or earlier on in the process, what are maybe one or two stumbling blocks that you see that you think, "You know what, hey, if we put a little bit of thought into this, we can overcome this very easily, but we need to be thinking about this from the start." [00:08:36] Jessica Richter: Okay. There's two things. One of them is gonna be a shameless plug, but I swear it's true, and that's quality. I think companies don't focus enough on quality systems 'cause it's just not the fun or sexy thing, but it's literally where we see companies struggle because they think about it too late. They do just in time. They think an EQMS is the answer, and it's not the only answer, it's a component. So quality would be the short answer. The longer answer is people. So what we see is oftentimes, people, especially in a cost constrained environment, which we are today, where fundraising is tough, people do need to be financially astute as far as what they're spending and how they're spending it. But sometimes you get more by spending a little bit more to get the right advice. So for example, if somebody is expert in engineering or expert in regulatory, excellent. Know where your expertise is not, and then supplement. So either hire a consultant or bring on an employee or have a member of your board that can advise them that way. More often than not, we see people trying to just kind of figure it out as they go, which isn't a bad strategy, but there are critical decisions and inflection points along the way. For example, if you're developing a clinical trial, thinking only about your regulatory strategy and not about your commercial goals or the claims you're going to make, you are gonna have to ultimately spend twice as much when you have to do secondary studies that you could have avoided by including that in endpoints. So there's little things like that along the way where if you don't know what you don't know, it's really difficult to see those hurdles. It's helpful to bring in people, even in an advisory capacity, to help you say, "Okay, these are the hurdles that you're gonna face." You're gonna have new hurdles that maybe that you won't know or people won't know, but it's really making sure that you surround yourself with experts in those key areas. [00:10:25] Lindsey Dinneen: Mm. That's great advice. Experts in those key areas. Well, speaking to the advisory point, I'd actually love to talk about your involvement with MedtechWOMEN, and tell us a little bit about that organization and how it serves women in this industry. [00:10:39] Jessica Richter: Absolutely. Thank you for asking. It's something that I could literally talk about for this entire podcast. So, I alluded to it earlier, but MedtechWOMEN, I got, and I say "roped in" lovingly, but I was introduced to this organization, gosh, maybe a decade ago now when I was at Covidian and then Medtronic, and a mentor of mine, Amy Belt Raimundo, was one of the founders of MedtechWOMEN. And she had mentioned to me, because there weren't a lot of female leaders within that section of my business at the time, so I was paired with her and it feels like kismet because she was this spark of like, this is what badass female leadership looks like. She knew her stuff, she was really focused on the issues. She made time and said yes anytime I had a question or wanted to meet. Our conversations were really meaningful and actionable. Sometimes we just talked as friends. It wasn't always so agenda based, but she introduced me to MedtechWOMEN and shared with me that there's this organization. It's all volunteers. It's kind of membership based and it's literally women getting together talking about the issues in our industry. And it wasn't as focused on things like work-life balance, which quite frankly is a challenge, no matter what your gender is. There are great forums for talking about work-life balance and how you prioritize your health and your mental wellbeing, and that is really, really important. But some of the events that I had gone to as far as women in leadership or women in medtech were really focused on those things and that wasn't what I wanted to talk about. I wanted to see incredible pioneers or trailblazers in our industry talking about the things that mattered in industry and sharing their perspectives. And that's exactly really the thesis of MedtechWOMEN. And so it was an organization founded over a decade ago. It started really as just an annual event, this MedtechVISION event, where we brought women together on a podium talking about the issues impacting healthcare today. It evolved. So after a couple of years and a couple of different topics, what we started to see is that there was a real thirst in the community that we had beyond just that individual or that one time a year we got together for the event. And so we developed a kind of MedtechWOMEN 2.0. We brought on an Executive Director. And we essentially launched a much, much grander vision of what MedtechWOMEN was. So it included membership. It included mentorship, so formal pairings. We created a board of directory, kind of a pathway to get to more women on boards. We also have local events, networking events, virtual events in partnership with our sister organizations like MedTech Color and Diversity by Doing. And then of course we still have our annual event. And then just this past month we actually brought on a new executive director. Her name is Yvonne Bokelman. She is a longtime industry veteran, tremendous leader in medtech, and someone who's really passionate about the organization, the mission, the vision. So we're excited to see what she will do in her role here. [00:13:38] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. That's incredible. Thank you so much for sharing a little bit about the organization and its history and who it is serving, and it really resonated because I agree with you that there's wonderful platforms for being able to talk about some of the. Some of the topics that tend to come up quite a bit for women, especially women leaders, and I love the fact that you are fully acknowledging that those things are great as well, but that your focus is a little bit different. And so I'm curious, what are some interesting stories or things that have happened maybe unexpectedly from this network of incredible women supporting each other, learning from each other. Can you share a little bit that? [00:14:17] Jessica Richter: Oh yeah, absolutely. And I'll tell you, many of us that have been members for a long period of time will attest to the fact that job opportunities come via this network, learning opportunities, sales and business opportunities. I mean, we network in the same way that we would in any other conference or any other meeting, but deals certainly have gotten done within and at MedtechWOMEN and MedtechVISION events. But most importantly, and one of the things that I always tout, is that MedtechWOMEN is a sisterhood that will take that call. And what I mean by that is if you have a question, if you need to phone a friend-- going back to what we were talking about earlier of that network of you don't know what you don't know, but somebody probably does-- within MedtechWOMEN, someone definitely does. And so what we encourage our members and our mentors and anyone that's a part of the organization to do is reach forward and reach back. And so when I say take that call, if someone calls-- and I just had literally three conversations in the last three weeks-- with more junior people looking for career advice or wanting to have a question about regulatory or their thinking about a decision point in their job, and what should they do? I always take that call and, you know, we're all busy. We all have things to do, but that 30 minute conversation can have a really big difference. And I know for me, likewise, when I have a question, when I'm coming up against something where it's helpful to have a thought partner, sometimes you want that outside of your own company, or outside of your boss, or outside of your team. And so the MedtechWOMEN Network is incredibly powerful and very supportive. And in my experience, and I've tried it both ways, we will always take that call. [00:15:53] Lindsey Dinneen: Oh wow. That's incredible. So, okay, so mentorship and leadership is obviously a key component of your life, something that you're passionate about. From your own experience as a woman in this industry, are there any things that come to mind that you would say, just pieces of advice-- let's say for other women who might be younger in their career and they're looking to grow, they're looking to become leaders, they're looking to become maybe thought leaders, or own their own company, things like that-- what are some things that you might suggest to them from your own experience would be helpful? [00:16:27] Jessica Richter: Oh yeah. It's, it's a great question, Lindsey, because there's a lot of things. I wish we could just mind share. First and foremost, I would tell women to go for it. I think sometimes we self-sabotage or hold ourselves back if we don't have all of the information or feel like we're a hundred percent qualified. And there's been tons of studies that demonstrate that. So first and foremost, go for it. I had this conversation with one of my mentees who was taking on a new role and I said, "It's okay that you're feeling this way or that way. Do it and do it scared." Like it's okay to not feel like you have all of the confidence, right? And it doesn't mean fake it till you make it, although there's a little bit of that too. But I would say don't let fear hold you back. So that would be the first piece of it. The other piece of it is make sure that you have, really, your own board, meaning advocates, mentors, coaches, thought partners, people that you can reach out to and rely upon. And that has to work both ways. I will tell you, I have learned as much from mentees as I have learned from mentors. And so recognizing that knowledge is shared both ways, no matter what your seniority is. For people that are junior, they have their on the pulse of things that I'm not as privy to, and sometimes I feel, feel that even more strongly. Likewise for people that have been in this industry 40, 50 years, they have institutional knowledge that I only wish that I had. And so, being at this midpoint in my career, I'm sandwiched between both and really appreciate, so I would implore people that are hoping and wanting to pursue leadership, go for it. [00:18:00] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. Thank you for that. I, I love that advice. I really appreciate it. So, you have had such an interesting career and going from communication and sales, and then to this new role and Chief Operating Officer, all these cool things. For your own leadership style, what would you say are maybe one or two key things that you have found to be really helpful for you as a leader in the industry in the way that you approach the people that you lead? [00:18:30] Jessica Richter: Another great question, Lindsey. So I would say, well --first maybe I'll share some lessons learned 'cause I've made a ton of mistakes. So I think one of the things that I didn't appreciate early on as a leader that I definitely appreciate now, is that we all have our own lens, our view with which we take on and see the world, and that's the view in which, you know. And so as a leader, initially, my thought was, "Well, everyone kind of sees and feels it this way with their own flavor." That is not true. Everyone has their own view and that's really shaped by their family, their background, their culture, lots of different aspects. And so I think for me, some advice as a leader would be, be humble, take the time to really seek to understand, and then, even if you are heightening your communication, multiply that times three or four and then you're probably scratching the surface, 'cause people need to hear things different ways, multiple times. And it doesn't mean you need to micromanage or drill things down, but when you're leading an organization and bringing people along on a change, especially, it is important that people understand the why, the who, the what, the how come, and that they hear that re repeatedly so that they can understand it, they can buy into it, and that you're creating an environment to make sure that their questions are addressed. So, lesson learned kind of recommendation on the leadership piece. I think the other just piece of advice is that sometimes people aspire to leadership because they think it's glamorous or there's gonna be a lot of money there, or it looks like the leader doesn't have to do that much work, they're just delegating. What I would say is leadership is not glamorous. It's often thankless. It's super hard. I work tons of hours and I love the team that I work with, and so for me the why is that. But if you are not loving that, don't do that. There's plenty of opportunities that you can contribute meaningfully as an individual contributor or a principal or a subject matter expert, and that's great too. So know that if you want to lead people and be involved on that side of leadership, I welcome it. I think it's fantastic. I think there's a lot of people that get into it with a misconception of what it will look like. And I'll tell you it's worthwhile, but it's hard. [00:20:43] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, when you were talking about that it, the glamor side of things, I just remember so vividly and I, I joke about it because I think it's funny-- but very quickly, I used to own my own dance studio and I built that from the ground up. And people would say things to me like, "Oh my goodness. What you're doing, you're living your dream. That's amazing! Oh my gosh, how cool is that?" And inside, I'm like, "Ha, yeah, I mean, I spent the first two hours as the janitor this morning, and then the next two hours as the CEO. And then, you know..." And it's funny, but it's true, you wear a lot of hats as a leader and sometimes your job is literally getting down into the nitty gritty and cleaning up, and that's fine too. So I love that. [00:21:24] Jessica Richter: My quip is always from the janitor to the GM, like, "What needs to get done? There's no task too big or too small." And ultimately, I think that what you described in yourself, and I love that, is servant leadership, right? Like for me, I've always responded well, when a leader isn't above any task and doesn't ask for something that they themselves would not be willing or aren't willing to do along with their team member. And so again, that's, that's not the definition of leadership, but in my eyes, that's a definition of leadership that really resonates with me. [00:21:55] Lindsey Dinneen: Mm-hmm. I agree. Yeah. Well, speaking of stories and those kinds of fun things too, are there any that stand out to you, perhaps along your career or with MedtechWOMEN, or anything really, that just affirm to you that, "Hey, I am in the right industry at the right time, doing what I should be doing?" [00:22:14] Jessica Richter: Oh yes. So there's a couple of different specific examples. So firstly, one of the things that has happened as of late, and I feel like-- not to get too woo or California on you-- but these synchronicities where you'll be thinking about something or remembering something, and suddenly a project and people come together around it-- and again, I think that's part of the power of the network. But there was a friend of mine that I had run into at a conference, we were talking about a specific aspect of their business that was really needing some, some development, and it turned out that after that conversation, literally not a week later, I got a call from a prospective client that was interested in working in this specific space. We were able to connect them with this person that was in need of that exact thing. And it was with software and with AI and so a partnership was forged and now they are literally about to embark in this really explosive and announcement will be forthcoming about it. But there's so many examples of little nuances and synchronicities like that, that again, happen because of staying open, staying curious, that powerful network right place, right time. But I also think it's the magic of our industry. It's really small. People sometimes fail to appreciate because you have these large organizations that are hundreds of thousands of people, but the leaders within the organization are fairly connected and tight. It's really an interconnected ecosystem. So that's just kind of one broad example. There's also other really small examples of the power, I think, of MedtechWOMEN in just how it ignites and how it brings people together, especially across senior and junior roles. So when we do our networking events, we try to do them regionally, just to try to bring different people together. And you can have like the CEO of sometimes a large organization, like Lisa Earnhardt from Abbott is a member and an active participant. She often will come to events talking to someone who's their very first year in medtech. And when you see these examples of sponsors of ours really showing up and demonstrating a commitment to giving back, and you see these people that are junior that may not even know the seniority of the leader that they're speaking to, recognizing that we're all people at the end of the day, trying to really ideally propel healthcare and help patients in their journeys to health and wellness. And so when you see examples of those sparks and those little ignites, it reinforces why we're here, what it is we're doing, and really the power of the organization. [00:24:41] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah! Well, I think that the more times that you get to see those connection points, and those synergies or whatever we wanna call them, I think that that does impact us in a way that goes, "Yeah, the work that I do matters and it's impacting people's lives and maybe in very different ways." So some of it is, yeah, that end user and that patient, and oh my goodness, what this device can do for them and their quality of life. And sometimes it's the person behind the invention and what does that journey look like for them personally and the impact on their own family and their life. So I love hearing about those connection points. [00:25:16] Jessica Richter: Well, and that's the joy of working also with, I mean, large strategics for sure, but the startup companies, oftentimes it's a physician and engineer. The physician is seeing the unmet need because of the patients coming into their clinic. They're feeling hopeless 'cause they can't address it, but also empowered because they know what to do. So those are the really fun, kind of feel good projects, especially because there is no one better equipped than a clinician, right, to say, "Okay, here's the gap." Engineers can help to design and develop, but oftentimes that's where the teams are sort of left in the lurch to say, "Okay, what do we do from here?" And so it is incredibly powerful to enable these innovators, no matter what their backgrounds are along that journey. And it's not a quick one as you know, being on the manufacturing side. It's not something that's quick or easy. It's not something that is a high success rate. And when it works, there is no better feeling. When you commercialize a device or when you get it through the FDA, that's just the start. When it's actually used in patients and you start to hear those patient advocates and those stories, and you expand indications and are able to help more patients, that's the thing that makes it worthwhile. And when the going gets tough, 'cause it does that, those are the stories, right, that really inspire us to continue. [00:26:33] Lindsey Dinneen: Yes, absolutely. Amen to that. So, okay, so I have so many thoughts swirling around, but I do want to pivot the conversation a little bit just for fun. So imagine that you were to be offered a million dollars to teach a masterclass on anything you want. It can be within your industry, but it doesn't have to be. What would you choose to teach? [00:26:53] Jessica Richter: Oh, I love this question. I'll try to make it not about our industry 'cause it's something I've been working on a lot lately, and it's a testament to patience, which is something that I think we could all use more of, but I could definitely use more of. So we rescued a dog in Covid. She's a Doberman pit mix. Her name is Poppy and she's delightful. And she was severely neglected. So when we got her, we knew she was really shut down and that we would have to do work to bring her out of her shell. My husband and I don't have kids. We have a quiet home. I knew that we could take that on. And so while I won't say I am the expert, what I have done in the four years we've now had her, is extensively worked with her on the, what I would call the "Art of the Dog Walk." So we have learned how to really master exercise, training, and discipline as a way to show affection, 'cause for a dog that shut down like that, that's really what she needed to thrive. It was humbling and very educational for me. I've always been a huge animal lover. I used to volunteer when I had a lot more time with an animal rescue. And so I was able to parlay that and work with a trainer really on honing those skills so that Poppy could not just be social in the world, but be less shut down. So it would be so fun to share a masterclass on that 'cause I had so many reflections and learnings on patience. The art of going slow, the art of taking in the world, of just slowing that down, not being on my phone, right, being really present with her. And I sort of joke with my husband, I feel like now when I walk her-- I dunno if you've seen the movie "Avatar"-- but like we connect our avatars and we like go on into this world, and it's meditative. It's our morning practice and it's something that for me has been incredibly rewarding, and challenging, and a huge learning experience that, that I would love to share. [00:28:50] Lindsey Dinneen: Oh, that's wonderful. Oh my goodness. Yes. I am a huge dog lover, so anytime someone's telling me about their dog, it's just instant happiness. [00:28:59] Jessica Richter: Likewise. And for my, my favorite thing that it will always bring a smile to my face is the unlikely animal friends, like if you see like a squirrel a dog or a kookaburra or something, you're like, "Ahh!" [00:29:10] Lindsey Dinneen: It's so cute. It's precious. Yes. I love it. And to me it reinforces, "Hey, we can actually all get along if we try." I mean, I know it's a little different in the animal kingdom, but still, I still love that. Oh my goodness. Great. Well then, how do you wish to be remembered after you leave this world? [00:29:32] Jessica Richter: You know, legacy is something, that I think is important. It's funny, I've been working with my niece on her college essays and college admittance, and reflecting back to my views when I was 18 versus my views today in the world now. And even speaking to my mom about legacy, 'cause it's something, you know, she's approaching her eighties that she thinks more and more about. So it's conversations that we have a lot. I really would love to be remembered as an enabler, as someone who really enables those around me to be successful, to achieve more, to obtain what they want right to, to drive forward. I love being around creative people and innovators and people with really expansive imaginations, and I think my superpower is kind of capturing and enabling those things. So it would be great to be able to enable more people around me. And that's true with patients and healthcare and the clients that we support as well. You know, one of the things that has always been pointed out to me-- and again, my grandfather was a huge proponent of this-- is when things aren't going well in the world, you can focus on what's going wrong or you can look for the helpers. And so, as a surgeon, he was one of those helpers. And so I think he ingrained that in me very early on. And so I'd love to be remembered as someone who is a helpful enabler. [00:30:51] Lindsey Dinneen: Hmm. Yes. That's a beautiful legacy. I love that. [00:30:54] Jessica Richter: I am curious, Lindsey, I know this is like, you're the, you're the interviewer, but how would you like to be remembered? [00:31:02] Lindsey Dinneen: Oh, thank you for asking. First time! You know, there are so many things, so many things that I love doing for other people. But I really actually resonated with your idea of enabling. And I would say mine is very similar. And that is that I love helping people achieve their dreams. And that can look like lots of different things to lots of different people. So it's when I'm working with a company, it always started with one person's idea, right? All these big companies started off as this tiny little one person's idea that became something. And I think just helping that, those sparks, especially when maybe they're eager, but they're not quite ready. They're scared, they're nervous, they're whatever, and helping them see a clear path to achieving those dreams and goals is one of my favorite things. And whether that's just a personal, I wanna run a marathon, I don't even how to know how to get started, or whether it's, I have this great idea for a book, but I am concerned about, like, "Nobody will read it, no one will care." Well, that's not the point. Let's start somewhere. And so I think for me, it's about empowering people to live the life that they want to live and hope that they can live. That's what I would love to be remembered for. [00:32:16] Jessica Richter: Well, that's beautiful. I hope that via this and the other things that you're doing, it seems like you're already on that track. [00:32:22] Lindsey Dinneen: Well, thank you. I appreciate that. I really appreciate you asking me too. Thank you. Well, and then final question, and you've sort of perhaps alluded to this-- I'll see if it's different than your first time-- what is one thing that makes you smile every time you see or think about it? [00:32:37] Jessica Richter: Oh, well, definitely the unlikely animal pairings for sure. [00:32:41] Lindsey Dinneen: Yes. [00:32:42] Jessica Richter: Anytime with family. Family is super important to me. So anytime I can spend time with our family, that is for me, a smile doesn't go off of my face. And also kind of what you said, celebrating other people's wins. And I celebrate my own as well-- I think it's important that we do that-- but there is nothing like, it's a grin, like when someone on our team has an accomplishment, the grin is twice as big, right? Because you just, to see that reflected, that success, that attainment, that win reflected for the people that you work alongside, that brings a smile to my face every time. [00:33:20] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah, nothing quite like it, and it's so powerful. Yeah, huh. Oh my goodness. Well, this has been an amazing conversation. I don't really want it to end, but I know we have other things we have to get to today, so I just wanna take some time to say thank you so very much for being here with me, Jessica. Thank you for sharing all about your incredible career so far and all the exciting things that are to come, and speaking to MedtechWOMEN and that incredible organization. So I'm really excited for our listeners who might not have been familiar with it to go check it out, lots of opportunity there. And gosh, I just wish you the most continued success as you work to change lives for a better world. [00:34:01] Jessica Richter: Thank you, Lindsey, for hosting and I would encourage anybody who's unfamiliar with MedtechWOMEN, if you're new to industry or if you've been here a while, there is a place for you within MedtechWOMEN. Membership is super low cost. It's $150 for standard membership a year, $75 for junior members. You can follow us on LinkedIn, but highly, highly encourage everyone to join the network. And thank you for the opportunity to share a little bit more about MedtechWOMEN today. [00:34:26] Lindsey Dinneen: Of course. We are so honored to be making a donation on your behalf as a thank you for your time today to Save the Children, which works to end the cycle of poverty by ensuring communities have the resources to provide children with a healthy, educational, and safe environment. So thank you so much for choosing that charity to support. Thank you also to our listeners for tuning in, and if you're feeling as inspired as I am right now, I'd love it if you share this episode with a colleague or two, and we'll catch you next time.

Something historic just happened: five Arab Muslim sheikhs from Hebron publicly rejected the Palestinian national movement and asked to join the Abraham Accords, shattering the decades-old lie of a “Palestinian people.” Meanwhile, the weekend exposed more global chaos—Hamas' response to the ceasefire deal was not 'yes, but', it was a hard NO, Iran openly rejects Trump's offer for talks, and Jew-hating antisemitic mobs in Melbourne, Australia.Join Our Whatsapp Channel: https://chat.whatsapp.com/G1QViHXaqEkJxoRDUHBNZGFollow us on Twitter: https://x.com/AviAbelowJoin our Telegram Channel: https://t.me/aviabelowpulseFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pulse_of_israel/?hl=enPulse of Israel on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IsraelVideoNetworkVisit Our Website - https://pulseofisrael.com/Donate to Pulse of Israel: https://pulseofisrael.com/boost-this-video/

Critique of Hollywood and Media Bias: Cruz argues that the NYT list prioritizes political messaging over storytelling and entertainment. He claims the list reflects elitist, left-leaning Hollywood values and ignores popular, inspirational, or patriotic films. Alternative Film List: Cruz presents his own list of 30 films from the past 25 years that he believes are more representative of quality cinema. His selections include: Gladiator, The Patriot, A Beautiful Mind, Lord of the Rings, Saving Private Ryan, American Sniper, Hidden Figures, Top Gun: Maverick, and Avatar. He emphasizes true stories, war films, musicals, and movies with strong moral or patriotic themes. Personal Movie Preferences: Cruz shares his favorite films (The Princess Bride, The Godfather, Scarface, Fletch), and discusses his love for musicals and classic comedies. He recounts personal anecdotes, including taking his mother to Broadway shows and watching Saving Private Ryan and Dallas Buyers Club. Cultural Commentary: The conversation touches on broader cultural issues, such as the disconnect between Hollywood and everyday Americans, the importance of storytelling, and the role of cinema in shaping public perception.

Today, Kirbi and Dustin Love share the story of their morning Pandora: The World of Avatar ceremony and Nomad Lounge brunch in Animal Kingdom, with a reception that night at Terrace des Fleurs in EPCOT. Guest experience was a top priority for Dustin and Kirbi, so they added mix-ins on four different rides: a choice of Flight of Passage or Na'vi River Journey after the ceremony, and a choice of Soarin' or Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind after the reception. They also added a welcome party at the Grand Floridian Marina so that they could surprise guests with an appearance by Mickey, Minnie, Chip 'n' Dale in their Christmas outfits, which weren't allowed at any of the couple's other venues.

(June 17,2025)Big changes are coming to Disneyland: ‘Monsters' is out, ‘Avatar' is in. Disney rides have come and gone. Faced with paying hundreds of sex abuse claims, LAUSD authorizes up to $500MIL in bonds.
Len Testa and Jim Hill break down the newest Monstropolis concept art and speculate on Disney's next big land grab near Blizzard Beach. They also examine Disneyland's expansion strategy, a Coco boat ride, and why the Avatar land plans are quietly devouring backstage space. Then, in part three of the Journey Into Imagination saga, Jim reveals how Figment almost got replaced by Michael Jordan—and how one flubbed line at an NBC upfront helped create The Golden Girls.

A CLASSIC ROCKER FINDS OUT HE HAS A LOVE CHILD FROM THE 80's, some insane Movies announced and A wild list of celebrities and how they caught their significant others cheating… it's like celebs are just like us guys!CRAP ON FRIDAY Rick Moranis has been gone way too long. Even those new "Ghostbusters" movies didn't lure him back to Hollywood. But I am quite excited to announce that he WILL return to once again play Dark Helmet in "Spaceballs 2"!!! Bill Pullman will return as the hero Lone Starr, too. And Mel Brooks will be back as Yogurt . . . and, presumably . . . President Skroob. (He played both characters in the original.) Josh Gad co-wrote the script, and he's expected to be in it, too. Pullman's son Lewis Pullman has also been cast, along with Keke Palmer . . . but there's no word who they're playing. There's also no word on any other returning cast members. Obviously, John Candy, Joan Rivers, and Dick Van Patten won't be back, since they're no longer with us. Mel released the first teaser yesterday. There's no footage, since filming hasn't begun yet. It starts with a text crawl that makes fun of all the "Star Wars" prequels, sequels, sequels to the prequels, prequels to the sequels, and TV spin-offs. Then it lists all the "Dune", "Jurassic Park", "Avatar", and Marvel movies, plus DC's TWO attempts to start a cinematic universe . . . and just about every other overdone franchise you can name. Then, after a quick appearance from Mel, we get a shot of Rick Moranis' cracked helmet, and the tagline: "The Schwartz Awakens in 2027." Which sounds like a possible title but it's spaceballs and mel brooks so it could be anything. Here is Mel making his announcement. Jerry Seinfeld Proposes ‘Live-Action Sequel' to 'Bee Movie'Jerry Seinfeld has people buzzin' with this idea!The comedic genius posted about the possibility of a “live-action sequel” to his 2007 animated hit Bee Movie.“Bee Movie, which came out nearly 20 years ago, is #4 on Netflix,” he wrote on Instagram showing a hand holding a tennis ball with a honey bee on it. The next slide was the movie's poster, an image of Seinfeld's character Barry B. Benson similarly straddling a tennis ball.“Today, my friend Spike Feresten, one of the writers on the film, was playing tennis and this happened."He continued, “Clearly a sign. Time for a live-action sequel..?" DreamWorks' Bee Movie, which Seinfeld produced, co-wrote, and starred in along with Renée Zellweger, has become a cult favorite since its release.Bee Movie also featured the voices of Matthew Broderick, John Goodman, Chris Rock, Kathy Bates, Megan Mullally, Oprah Winfrey, and several celebrities appearing as animated versions of themselves, including Larry King, Ray Liotta, and Sting.Saint Louis' own Nelly and Ashanti are putting their lives on TV for all to see. They announced an upcoming reality show called Nelly & Ashanti: We Belong Together.A show synopsis says Nelly and Ashanti "rekindle their love, navigate the ups and downs of being newlyweds and new parents, and juggle their careers."The eight-episode series will air on Peacock starting June 26th.A DNA Test Connects Billy Idol To A Son He Didn't Know He HadDetails on the lovechild Billy Idol didn't know he had until a few years ago have surfaced.Idol's daughter, Bonnie, shared in the new doc, 'Billy Idol Should Be Dead', "My husband just surprised me with a DNA test as a Christmas present [a few years ago]. Then a few weeks later, I get the results back on the app and open it and I'm like, who is this? This Brant. His info reads, 'New York, 1985, looking for my biological dad.' I was like, ‘What?'"Brant, Idol's lovechild, grew up believing his dad was someone else until a different DNA questioned his mother's claims about his father. After confronting his mom, she told Brant, "Well, it's pretty crazy, but back in the day, we broke up and I actually spent a weekend with Billy Idol."Fans have done the math and calculate that Brant was conceived during Idol's wildly successful 1984 'Rebel Yell' tour.Idol has whole-heartedly accepted Brant as family, saying, "I really enjoyed being a dad. I always wanted a boy and a girl, and I finagled my way into a boy and a girl. I actually had a son that I didn't realize, who I fathered on the Rebel Yell tour without knowing it. So I somehow finagled this as well."Brant was at Idol's Walk of Fame ceremony back in 2023.Prime Video Will Soon Show Double The AdsAmazon Prime Video is about to double the number of commercials shown per hour on its ad-supported membership level. An Adweek report got the news from an Amazon spokesperson about the amount of commercials going to "four to six minutes per hour" from the two to three minutes that Prime users are used to. In 2024, subscribers who had ad-free access were forced to pay an extra $3 a month to maintain the status. Jay-Z Loses $1 Million NBA Finals Bet Jay-Z is out $1 million after losing a bet on the NBA Finals. Jay placed a bet prior to the series, banking on the Oklahoma City Thunder to win the championship in five games. After Wednesday night's Thunder loss to the Indiana Pacers, OKC can't win the series unless they do it in six or seven games. Jay-Z would have won $3.5 million if the bet had cashed in. With a net worth of $2.5 billion, we're sure Jay-Z will be alright. Ok you guys remember Spinal Tap? The Album cover debate with the label and why it became an all black cover or as Nigel would say NONE MORE BLACK? It was because the original had a woman on all fours with a dog leash on and it was deemed sexist…. To which Nigel replies “Whats wrong with being sexy? Well get this, Sabrina Carpenter announced her new album yesterday, and it's causing a lot of controversy. It's called "Man's Best Friend", and the cover has Sabrina on all fours, in front of a man who's pulling a handful of her hair. A women's advocacy group in Scotland called it "regressive", saying it reduces women to, quote, "pets, props, and possessions," and promotes "an element of violence and control." Sabrina's fans are defending it as SATIRE, and a commentary on how badly women are treated. And some are pointing out that the first single, "Manchild", actually makes FUN of men. HERE IS A CLIP OF THATMeanwhile, in the new "Rolling Stone" cover story, Sabrina talks about being criticized for the sexual imagery in her stage show. She says, quote "It's always so funny to me when people complain. They're like, 'All she does is sing about this.' But those are the songs that you've made popular. Clearly you love sex. You're obsessed with it." She adds, quote, "I truly feel like I've never lived in a time where women have been picked apart more, and scrutinized in every capacity. I'm not just talking about me. I'm talking about every female artist that is making art right now." Pope Leo isn't even the most famous guy in his family. The "New York Times" researched his family tree, and found out that he's related to a bunch of celebrities. The link is an ancestor from about six generations back. He name was Louis Boucher de Grandpre, and he was born in Quebec.And because of him, Leo is distant cousins with Justin Bieber, Justin Trudeau, Angelina Jolie, Hillary Clinton, Jack Kerouac, and Madonna. It's interesting that Leo would be related to Madonna, given that the Catholic Church has condemned her several times . . . most famously when she released her "Like a Prayer" video in 1989. A few years ago, Madonna reached out to Pope Francis, asking to meet with him to discuss "important matters." She told him, quote, "I've been ex-communicated 3 times. It doesn't seem fair." If you've ever wondered how the creators of "Friends" came up with the character of Joey Tribbiani . . . we might just have the answer this morning. Joey Lawrence claims Matt LeBlanc's character was based on HIS character Joey Russo from "Blossom". Lawrence says, quote, "Joey Russo was so successful that when they were creating 'Friends', they wanted a 25-year-old version of that." Supposedly, Matt's character wasn't even originally called Joey, but they changed it because the "Blossom" character was so successful. Joey even claims that Matt was sent to tapings of "Blossom" where he would, quote, "sit up in the audience with a yellow notepad and take notes on how I portrayed Joey Russo." He says they wanted Matt to bring the "innocence" of Joey Russo to Joey Tribbiani, so the character could, quote, "get away with his womanizing." I guess the Grammys were sick of hearing about whether Beyoncé deserved to win Best Country Album for "Cowboy Carter". So, they just announced a major change. For next year's Grammys, the award formally known as Best Country Album will now be called Best Contemporary Country Album . . . and they will also be adding a new category: Best Traditional Country Album. There's a lot to unpack here. And one year after Beyoncé wins makes the timing of this all the more clickbait-y. According to the Grammy website, "traditional country music", quote, "adheres to the more traditional sound structures of the country genre, including rhythm and singing style, lyrical content, as well as traditional country instrumentation such as acoustic guitar, steel guitar, fiddle, banjo, mandolin, piano, and live drums." Where "contemporary country music", quote, "remains reminiscent and relevant to the legacy of country music's culture, while also engaging in more contemporary music forms." Someone tweeted, "Morgan Wallen and Post Malone better not be in the traditional country category at the Grammys, because in what world are they traditional country?" Wait, hold up. When Morgan collaborated with Alvin and the Chipmunks, that wasn't traditional country??New in Theaters: "How to Train Your Dragon", "Materialists", and "The Life of Chuck" There's nothing like a good breakup story. Here are seven times a celebrity found out their partner was cheating in an unconventional way: 1. Demi Moore learned that Ashton Kutcher was having an affair in 2011, from a Google Alert. When she called him on it, he admitted it right away. Her response was, quote, "Are you [effing] kidding me?" 2. Britney Spears started dating lawyer David Lucado in 2012. But in 2014, her father found out there was paparazzi footage of David kissing another woman. He bought it to prevent it from being released, and Britney broke it off. 3. Kourtney Kardashian dumped Scott Disick in 2008, after finding texts on his phone from a contact called, quote, "my wife." They did the on-and-off thing until 2015, when photos emerged of Scott with another woman in France. 4. Elizabeth Hurley found out Hugh Grant was cheating on her in 1995, when he got arrested for GETTING IT ON with Sunset Boulevard prostitute Divine Brown in his car. They didn't break up until 2000, and they're still friends. 5. Laura Dern found out Billy Bob Thornton was being unfaithful when the news broke that he had ELOPED with Angelina Jolie in 2000. She was away making a movie, and she never saw it coming. 6. Eva Longoria's marriage to NBA star Tony Parker ended in 2010, after she found inappropriate texts with another woman on his phone. 7. This one's ancient history, but it was a HUGE tabloid story back in the day: In 1958, actress Debbie Reynolds was missing her husband, Eddie Fisher, because he was supposedly away on tour. So she decided to give her friend Elizabeth Taylor a call . . . and who answered Liz's phone? Eddie FREAKIN' Fisher. (!!!) Eddie left Debbie and married Liz, but that only lasted five years.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

For decades, writers and filmmakers have imagined worlds where characters can do things like watch a double sunset (on Tatooine, of course), or stand among the sand dunes of Arrakis, or gaze at the gas-giant planet Polyphemus from the moon Pandora. But even as works like Star Wars, Dune, and Avatar have enticed us with their fictional renditions of planets beyond our reach, astronomers have slowly begun to compile a set of scientific truths about the actual exoplanets. In this episode, Jacke talks to author Keith Cooper (Amazing Worlds of Science Fiction and Science Fact) about the realities beyond imaginary planets. PLUS Jacke takes a look at two AI-related pieces of news: the recovery of writing long thought to be lost on a scroll charred by Vesuvian ash, and a summer reading list that surprised everyone - including the authors who made the list for reasons they were not expecting.
