If we are high-impact, low-ego folks and we keep our eye on the ball, that's a recipe for success no matter what industry you're in.NextGen Scientific is turning an ancient Middle Eastern medicinal plant into a modern platform for cancer drug development and wellness products.In this episode, I spoke with Jason West, co-founder of NextGen Scientific, a PurposeBuilt100™ company recognized for combining growth with measurable impact. Jason explained that the company operates along two related tracks: Hyatt Life Sciences, its dietary supplement business and Genzada Pharmaceuticals, its drug discovery and development company.The common thread is chemistry.Jason described the company's work with Arum palestinum, a plant that grows wild in the Middle East and has long been used there as a tea. That history is what pulled the scientific team in.“What caught our attention was that there are references to the use of this plant as a medicinal plant going all the way back to the 9th century AD,” Jason said. “For 1,100 years, it's been in continuous use.”That kind of longevity raised a serious scientific question for the team: why would people keep using it for more than a millennium if there were no benefit? Jason said NextGen began studying naturally occurring molecules in the plant, ultimately identifying compounds that became the basis for its oncology research.The company now has two lead oncology or oncology-related drug candidates. One is an oral capsule in clinical trials at Virginia Commonwealth University for late-stage prostate cancer, with trials expected in the Netherlands and Sweden. The other is a topical cream aimed at actinic keratosis, a precancerous skin condition with tens of millions of cases annually in the United States.Jason emphasized that the goal is not to replace oncologists but to help them. “We feel like we can be just one more tool in the toolbox of the oncologist, and that's what our ultimate goal is,” he said.Congratulations to NextGen Scientific LLC on ranking #46 on the 2026 PurposeBuilt100™ list! We're proud to recognize the company among America's fastest-growing mission-driven businesses, celebrating the connection between purpose, innovation, and growth. Meet the Class of 2026 — see the full list of winners →What I found especially compelling is the company's dual-path strategy. Drug development can be slow, expensive and risky. By building a supplement business alongside the pharmaceutical pipeline, NextGen has created revenue while continuing the long FDA-focused journey.That strategy emerged organically. In rural Kansas, word spread that the family was working with a tea tied to cancer wellness. People began asking for it. “By the end of the day, I think we were sending about 40 gallons of this tea out a week just to friends and family,” Jason said.NextGen Scientific is currently raising capital through a Regulation D offering for accredited investors, targeting just over $10 million. Jason said proceeds will help accelerate clinical trials, open new trial fronts and support marketing for the supplement business.It is exactly the kind of purpose-built growth story I love to celebrate.tl;dr:Jason West's team is translating an ancient Middle Eastern plant into cancer drugs and supplements.NextGen Scientific pairs Genzada Pharmaceuticals' clinical pipeline with Hyatt Life Sciences' wellness products.Small-town curiosity created unexpected demand, eventually reaching roughly 40 gallons of tea weekly.A Regulation D raise seeks just over $10 million from accredited investors to accelerate trials.Low-ego brilliance helps Jason keep hard conversations focused on data, kindness and learning.How to Develop Low-Ego Brilliance As a SuperpowerJason's superpower is Low-Ego Brilliance. He describes it as being among people with “big brains and small egos.” For Jason, the combination matters because “if we are high-impact, low-ego folks and we keep our eye on the ball, that's a recipe for success no matter what industry you're in.” He connects the idea to persistence, humility and disciplined focus: “You just have to keep on putting one foot in front of the other.” His advice is simple but powerful: “Take the phone call. Always take the phone call.”Jason shared a story about meeting with an exceptionally smart but highly skeptical person who seemed to have little patience for NextGen's science. Rather than taking offense or trying to win a personality contest, Jason and his team stayed calm and redirected the conversation to the data. A meeting scheduled for 15 or 20 minutes stretched to about two hours. By the end, the skeptic had become a friend. Jason summed up the lesson this way: “If you have the data on your side, you don't need to be too big for your britches.”Build teams with big brains and small egos; value impact over status.Keep your eye on the ball, especially when the work is long and difficult.Put one foot in front of the other rather than demanding instant success.When challenged, redirect the conversation to evidence instead of emotion.Be kind to skeptics; you can catch more flies with honey than vinegar.Take the phone call when you can because there is almost always something to learn.Stay curious, not judgmental, especially when you assume a conversation will not matter.By following Jason's example and advice, you can make low-ego brilliance a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileJason West (he/him):Executive Vice President, NextGen ScientificAbout NextGen Scientific: NextGen Scientific is a biotechnology and life sciences company dedicated to advancing innovative oncology research and developing evidence-based therapeutic solutions.

You think you have stability. You think you have your health. You think you have all these things. But in reality, they can be taken from you at any moment without warning — Jennifer PetersonThere's a version of strength that looks like showing up for everyone else while quietly falling apart underneath it. Jennifer Peterson spent 25 years in critical care and trauma medicine — and then found herself on the other side of the emergency, bleeding out after a routine surgery, unsure she'd make it home to her own kids.In this episode, Jennifer shares the honest, unscripted story of that near-fatal medical crisis, the EMDR work that helped her carry it, and the burnout that finally pushed her to leave inpatient medicine. She opens up about why she pivoted into perimenopause and menopause care, and why so many women are dismissed, misdiagnosed, or handed antidepressants when what they actually need is real hormone support and someone willing to listen.If you've ever felt unheard by a doctor or like you had to fight for basic answers about your own body, this is a real life story about women's health, self-advocacy, and finding your people.

As tokenized assets move into real-world testing, institutional investors need to understand how they could affect existing payment systems, settlement processes, risk controls, and operating models. What can real-world testing teach financial institutions about the next stage of digital markets? In this episode, Paul Fahey speaks with Justin Chapman, Group Head of Strategic Partnerships, Digital Assets and Financial Markets at Northern Trust, and Paul Abraham, Chief of Investment Services at Commonwealth Superannuation Corporation, about Project Acacia. They cover a live use case connecting a tokenized carbon credit with traditional cash settlement, what institutional investors are learning about tokenized assets and digital cash, and why hybrid infrastructure may remain part of financial markets as adoption develops. Key points: How Project Acacia tested tokenized assets alongside traditional payment infrastructure and settlement processes Why institutional investors are studying tokenization before broader adoption reaches their operating models How digital cash, tokenized equities, and different settlement models may develop across jurisdictions Where tokenization may improve liquidity, collateral use, operational efficiency, and risk visibility Why trust, liquidity, security, and regulatory clarity remain central to wider institutional participation And more!

We learn about airshow photography as we talk with a private pilot and UAV operator. In the news: Textron's new president and CEO, controllers and the fatal Air Canada Express crash, Marine One communications with DCA tower, Boeing's new F-15 contract, the TSA’s Gold+ privatized airport screening program, and the Airlink low pass over a Cape Town stadium. Thunderbird F-16 in flight. All photographs courtesy Logan Lynch. Guest Logan Lynch is a lifelong avgeek who loves photographing aircraft. He's attended AirVenture since 2018, where he can usually be found on the flight line with a camera glued to his face. Be sure to look through Logan’s 2026 EAA Airventure photo gallery for a sample of his work. As we talk about airshow photography, we learn that Logan owns very little photo gear and prefers to rent long zoom lenses from Lensrentals.com. We talk about good focal lengths, using a monopod (especially for fast jets), and a tripod for night shows. Logan spends the entire day shooting at a show, and he explains the accessories he carries, like lots of batteries, memory cards, and a cleaning kit. We talk about shooting RAW vs. JPG and editing images in Lightroom. Logan addresses the challenge of getting the right amount of prop blur and the importance of panning. We also explore tips for shooters who might only have the camera in their phone. An example of prop blur and panning on the Skip Stewart PITTS S-2S. Logan is a part owner of a 1966 Cessna 150F nicknamed Graham Cracker, and also a full-time UAV Operator and LDAR Technician for a major oil and gas producer out of North Dakota. He started Lynch Drone Photography in 2021 as an idea to generate a little extra income, but plans to expand it. Logan earned a Bachelor's in Aviation Management from Utah Valley University and serves as board treasurer for his local airport. The F-22 Raptor. The night show at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2024. Aviation News After Eight Years as President and CEO, Ron Draper Announces Retirement; Brian Rohloff to Lead Textron Aviation Forward Effective August 31, 2026, Ron Draper retired as president and CEO of Textron, with Brian Rohloff replacing him. Rohloff most recently served as senior vice president of Customer Support, overseeing global customer support operations, including service center capacity, parts availability, and AOG (aircraft-on-ground) response. Rohloff joined Cessna Aircraft Co. in 2009 as a production manager, and held positions including vice president of quality, vice president of sales, senior product director for the Citation XLS and Citation X lines, and director of paint operations. FAA seeks to fire two controllers who left early before fatal Air Canada crash On March 22, 2026, an Air Canada Express CRJ-900 collided with a fire truck at New York's LaGuardia Airport, killing both pilots. That night, two controllers left about an hour before the end of their shift, leaving two controllers to cover the tower. They remained recorded as working, in a practice known as “early shove.” ABC News reported that the two departing controllers were not needed to provide the normal minimum staffing for that time of night. The FAA has not said that the absence of the two controllers contributed to the accident. NATCA said it was discussing the allegations with FAA management. The NTSB has not determined the probable cause of the accident. New tech at Portland Jetport aims to boost safety New grant money will help Portland [Maine] International Jetport pay for location transponders in 57 airfield vehicles. The FAA is providing $200,000 while the state and the airport are contributing smaller amounts. Portland Jetport Director Paul Bradbury said, “…the tragedy in LaGuardia happened at midnight, right? It’s dark; it’s hard for controllers to see. This will make it another opportunity for them to see exactly where every vehicle is on the airfield.”  White House construction contributed to radio problems that let Trump copter come close to jet Several times controllers at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport failed to hear the standard three-minute warning call that Marine One was getting ready to take off. Marine One is using the Ellipse while the new helipad is being constructed behind the White House. This caused the radio receiver to be moved to a different location. Now the FAA has adjusted the antenna “to improve communications” between Marine One and the airport. Boeing nabs whopping $131 billion F-15 deal The U.S. Department of War, in its Contracts for Aug. 24, 2026, says that it has awarded Boeing “a $131,230,000,000 ceiling, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract for the F-15 Eagle Crest in support of the F-15 Program Office. This contract provides for aircraft production, systems integration, modernization, upgrades, retrofits, sustainment, and the establishment of organic depot maintenance capabilities to deliver and maintain critical F-15 Eagle Weapon System capabilities for the Air Force, Air National Guard, and other Department of War customers. Work will be performed at St. Louis, Missouri, and is expected to be completed by August 2037.” TSA Scraps Gold+ Privatized Airport Screening Program After 3 Months The Gold+ private airport screening program, which would privatize TSA screening, has been scrapped. In a previous web page (now taken down), the TSA explained Gold+: “TSA Gold+ is a new public-private partnership aimed at modernizing aviation security at select airports across the United States. TSA Gold+ will pair the Screening Partnership Program with TSA's innovation authorities to enable cutting-edge aviation security solutions. “Under TSA Gold+, TSA will continue to set the standards for aviation security using outcome-based measures that both drive performance and security. Long-term Screening Partnership Program (currently a TSA private screener contract model) contracts will redirect funds into the investable partnerships where leading industry operators can manage both technology and screening workforce.” Reasons cited for dropping the program: Only three airports (Tampa, Charleston, and Des Moines) were interested in the Gold+ protocols. Tampa International Airport performed “an extensive review and evaluation over several months” and announced it would not adopt Gold+. The American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE), representing TSA screening officers, sued the TSA to force it to turn over records about TSA Gold+. The TSA announced it will replace the Gold+ program with an “evolved” version of the existing public-private Screening Partnership Program (SPP). It was launched in 2002, where private companies hire and manage screening personnel while the TSA oversees operations. The SPP currently includes 20 U.S. airports. Airlink pilots caught on video flying dangerously close to South African sports stadium Two Airlink Embraer E190 passenger jets executed a flyover before a match at Cape Town's DHL Stadium filled with some 60,000 fans. Airlink is a regional airline based in Johannesburg, South Africa. Flightradar24 calculated that the aircraft flew as low as 41–46 ft (12.5–14 m) above the top of the stadium. This generated widespread reaction about the safety of the spectacle. Some were appalled; others argued this was entirely in line with South African values. Airlink says the South African Civil Aviation Authority approved the flyover and has offered to provide the black box data showing they complied with the waiver’s altitude and speed requirements. The airline said, “The two aircraft were flown by highly-experienced crew, with each comprised of three senior captains operating in the roles of commander, co-pilot and safety/technical officer. The flight data recorded by both aircraft confirms that the flights were performed within the SACAA's approved and rehearsed safety altitude and speed limits for the flypast.” See also: VIDEOS: Airlink responds to concern planes got ‘too close' to CT Stadium Airlink Flyover Sparks Global Outrage, But What Actually Happened Above DHL Stadium?

Guests Tomelle Greenfield holds a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education and a Master's degree in Applied Behavior Analysis. As a Strobel Education Consultant, behavior specialist, and co-developer of the ROOTS Framework, she partners with schools to build proactive, relationship-centered systems that improve student behavior, educator confidence, and lasting outcomes.    As a former teacher turned speaker and happiness coach, Kim Strobel helps schools, businesses, and organizations prioritize happiness and well-being so they can overcome fears, discover joy, activate limitless potential, and boldly pursue their dreams. She is the author of Teach Happy. Summary Tomelle and Kim argue that schools need to rethink how they understand and respond to student behavior. Rather than treating behavior as a problem to be managed after it occurs, they see it as communication and believe schools should create conditions that prevent dysregulation in the first place. Their ROOTS approach brings together practices that are often treated as separate initiatives—including trauma-informed practices, social-emotional learning, restorative practices, Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports, Multi-Tiered System of Supports, relationship building, and classroom management—into a coherent system. A central theme is the importance of relationships and regulation. Dysregulated students cannot learn effectively, and simply removing them from class or imposing consequences does not teach the skills they lack. Teachers, too, need support in learning to regulate themselves and model those skills for students. Tomelle and Kim believe schools need to move from "doing" to "being": these practices should become part of the everyday culture, not another set of initiatives. Consistent coaching, common expectations, adult support, and preventative systems are essential. Ultimately, their message is that healthy schools begin with healthy relationships—and that connection and accountability can coexist. The Essential Point Behavior management shouldn't be something schools do to students after problems arise; it should be woven into how schools operate every day. Relationships, regulation, consistency, and prevention create the conditions in which students—and teachers—can learn and thrive.

Over 23,000 people are incarcerated in Wisconsin's prisons, a record number reports Wisconsin Public Radio. For those who are in jail or prison, accessing necessary mental health services is too often out of reach. Three in five people do not receive the mental health treatment they need while they are in state and federal prisons, according to NAMI. To address the mental illness and the justice system, on today's show, host Dana Pellebon speaks with Linda Ketcham. Ketcham works at JustDane to support people who are newly released from jail and prison. JustDane offers peer support, traditional case management, employment and skills training, eviction prevention, and more. They also mentor kids whose parents are impacted by incarceration. No matter a person's conviction, they still deserve the opportunity to heal and grow, says Ketcham. She adds that she has come to see that the criminal justice system isn't broken, but operating exactly as it was intended.  They discuss the public discourse following the police killing of Corey Ruiz, namely how little empathy some people have toward people with histories of incarceration, especially knowing how difficult it is to come out of prison after years of incarceration;   If you are struggling, you can contact the 988 crisis line, 211 line run by the United Way of Dane County, or reach out to the Dane County Behavioral Resource Center.  Linda Ketcham is the Executive Director at JustDane. She is in recovery and has been working in human services for over 40 years. Linda has a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in criminal justice and was a certified addiction counselor for 15 years in Illinois before moving to Wisconsin.

On this episode of So Fly, we're joined by Nathan Wilbur, President of the Atlantic Salmon Federation (ASF), to talk about one of the most iconic fish on the planet: the wild Atlantic salmon. Based in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Nathan has spent more than a decade with the ASF working to conserve and restore wild Atlantic salmon across eastern Canada. His work has ranged from developing conservation programs and building coalitions and Indigenous partnerships to advocating for stronger salmon management at the government level. In July 2025, Nathan stepped into the role of President of the organization. Nathan is also a Professional Engineer with a background in rivers and fluvial geomorphology. He earned a Bachelor of Science in Forest Engineering from the University of New Brunswick before completing a Master's in Civil Engineering, where his research focused on cold-water habitat for Atlantic salmon. But for Nathan, salmon and rivers are more than a career. He's also a lifelong angler with a deep connection to fish, flowing water and the natural world. We chat with Nathan about the current state of wild Atlantic salmon, the biggest challenges facing populations today, habitat and river restoration, conservation and management, and the work being done to give these incredible fish a better future. Plus, we learn a little about Nathan the angler. Enjoy! Explore the ASF: https://www.asf.ca/ HOW TO HELP SO FLY: Please go leave us a review on APPLE PODCASTS.

Send us Fan MailIn episode #197 host Kyla Channell is joined by Dr. Emily Lantz, assistant professor at the University of Texas Medical Branch, for a practical conversation about how muscle responds to age, disuse, sleep loss, and protein intake. The episode focuses on what actually helps preserve or rebuild muscle, especially in middle-aged and older adults, aging women, and athletes recovering from inactivity or injury.KEY TAKEAWAYSMuscle loss can happen quickly during inactivity, especially in older adults.Whey protein appears useful in disuse situations because of its high quality and easy absorption.Protein quality matters, not just total grams.Plant-based eating can absolutely work, but it often requires more planning to hit protein and amino acid needs.25 to 30 grams of protein per meal is a practical target for many active adults.Leucine is helpful, but not a stand-alone solution.Resistance training remains the strongest signal for building or maintaining muscle.Please note that this podcast is created strictly for educational purposes and should never be used for medical diagnosis or treatment.ABOUT DR. EMILY LANTZ:Dr. Emily Lantz is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Nutrition Sciences and Health Behavior in the School of Health Professions at the University of Texas Medical Branch. She has a Bachelor of Science in Agricultural Biochemistry from Iowa State University, a PhD in Nutrition Science from Purdue University. She completed a postdoctoral fellowship in skeletal muscle metabolism from the Division of Rehabilitation Science University of Texas Medical Branch.Dr. Lantz's research interest broadly focuses on two main themes: i). the effects of physical inactivity on skeletal muscle mass and functional capacity in middle-aged and older adults, with an emphasis on aging women and ii). the application and mechanism of action of amino acid and protein consumption on acute markers of anabolism e.g., muscle protein synthesis.FOLLOW DR.

Send us Fan MailHost Mighty Fine and guest Paige Colburn-Hargis explore how to make the case for dedicating community health benefit resources to a drowning prevention and water safety program. Together, they discuss strategies for demonstrating community need, aligning injury and violence prevention efforts with hospital priorities, and securing support from hospital leadership. Host: Mighty Fine, MPH, CHES  Mighty Fine is the Associate Executive Director of the American Public Health Association (APHA), where he provides leadership across initiatives that advance public health science, policy and systems change. In this role, he helps shape APHA's strategic direction while leading efforts to design, implement, and evaluate programs that strengthen public health practice and improve health outcomes. He also provides technical assistance, consultation, and evidence-to-practice translation to local, state, and national partners. As a trained social epidemiologist, Mighty brings a population health perspective to some of the most pressing issues in public health, with particular attention to how social, structural, and environmental conditions shape health outcomes and inequities. His expertise spans injury and violence prevention, family health, HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis C, social policy, and chronic disease prevention. Through his work, he is committed not only to preventing disease and injury, but also to shaping community conditions that promote collective well-being. Mighty's leadership extends beyond program strategy and implementation as he represents APHA across a variety of initiatives that inform public health policy, strengthen practice, and elevate the field nationally. He brings a practice-informed perspective to these efforts, drawing on his experience as both a social epidemiologist and health educator to help shape the future of public health. He is also committed to highlighting public health as a meaningful career pathway, particularly for emerging professionals seeking to make an impact through community-centered public health practice. Through university guest lectures, national conference presentations, and other professional engagements, he continues to share knowledge, foster learning, and contribute to the development of the field. Having lived and worked in rural and urban environments, Mighty credits this empirical insight with anchoring his understanding of systematic levers of oppression. Thus, a core part of his work has focused on addressing the structures that serve as pillars of disadvantage. He has built expertise in the social determinants of health and brings a social justice perspective to the assessment and prevention of public health issues. Mighty holds a Bachelor of Science in Public Health from Rutgers University and a Master of Public Health from Yale University, with concentrations in Social and Behavioral Sciences and Chronic Disease Epidemiology. He is also a Certified Health Education Specialist (CHES), credentialed by the National Commission for Health Education Credentialing. In his free time, Mighty enjoys traveling, spending time with loved ones and attending concerts. Guest Information: Paige Colburn-HargisPaige Colburn-Hargis Injury Prevention Program Coordinator, Scripps Memorial Hospital, La Jolla Paige Colburn-Hargis serves as the Injury Prevention Community Outreach Coordinator for Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla, a Level I Trauma Center. She brings more than a decade of experience leading injury prevention initiatives across hospital, community, and national platforms. Paige is past chair of the Injury Prevention Committee for the Trauma Center Association of America and is an appointed member of the Aging and Independence Services Advisory Council for San Diego County. She has led regional coalitions, developed nationally recognized fall-prevention initiatives and projects, and created impactful public health campaigns, including the My Grey Matterz helmet safety initiative. She also coordinates the San Diego County Lifeguard Advisory Committee, a multi-agency coalition focused on improving prehospital care, enhancing interagency collaboration, and strengthening injury prevention efforts along San Diego's coastline. Most recently, she was appointed as a Sector Leader to the Binge and Underage Drinking (BUDI) Alcohol Policy Panel Advisory Board, further supporting her commitment to equity-driven, community-based prevention strategies. Paige's passion for injury prevention is deeply rooted in lived experience: as the parent of a child who sustained a severe TBI while skateboarding without a helmet, she has a profound appreciation for the importance of trauma-informed care, community education, and prevention-focused systems. This personal journey continues to shape her work and advocacy across the trauma care continuum. She is the recipient of the 2023 Women of Impact Award for her leadership in e-bike and micromobility safety education and recently received a Proclamation in honor of National Bike Safety Month from the County of San Diego. She remains a dedicated advocate for systems collaboration, policy change, and trauma prevention nationwide.

"When something becomes a measurement, it stops becoming a good target." In a world obsessed with digital efficiency and quick fixes, the real currency of a meaningful life remains independent thought, presence, and intentional effort. In this episode of Gratitude Through Hard Times, host Chris Schembra sits down with Nishat Mehta, CEO of Lexitas. A Harvard-trained mathematician and computer scientist turned executive, Nishat breaks down how leaders can navigate rapid change by embracing dialectical thinking—holding two seemingly competing truths at the same time. From balancing bottom-line performance with human empathy to shifting parenting styles as children grow, Nishat shares key insights on Goodhart's Law, confident humility, and finding extraordinary meaning in ordinary moments. 10 Memorable Quotes: "The new normal is that it will just keep changing. It really comes down to the ability to accept the change yourself and then lead the change amongst those around you." — Nishat Mehta "Confident humility balances high confidence in one's ability to figure things out with low ego regarding one's own current knowledge." — Chris Schembra "When something becomes a measurement, it stops becoming a good target." — Nishat Mehta "Always find the extraordinary in the ordinary." — Chris Schembra "Everything is on a spectrum... the edges of the spectrum are rarely the right answer." — Nishat Mehta "Efficiency increases consumption if you're not careful." — Chris Schembra "The journey is far more important than the destination... if we are constantly changing, it's because we are succeeding at the things we needed to do before." — Nishat Mehta "We must step out of the tyranny of the 'or' and into the genius of the 'and'." — Chris Schembra "Great work is something you're supposed to do, but recognizing what might seem ordinary is worthy of extraordinary gratitude." — Nishat Mehta "Gratitude doesn't change your circumstances; it changes your capacity to carry them." — Chris Schembra 10 Key Takeaways: Practicing Confident Humility: Balancing low ego regarding current knowledge with high confidence in a team's adaptability to solve complex, unfamiliar problems. Overcoming Goodhart's Law: Why single metrics distort business outcomes, and how pairing competing targets (like quantity vs. quality) maintains operational integrity. The "Genius of the 'And'": Replacing rigid "either/or" tradeoffs with dialectical thinking that unites radical acceptance with proactive change. Navigating Shifts in Family & Parenting: Transitioning from physical, hands-on care for young children to emotional, social mentorship as they grow into independence. Understanding Jevons Paradox in Modern Work: Recognizing how efficiency gains from AI can be swallowed by routine busyness unless leaders intentionally safeguard time for human connection. Harnessing "Collective Effervescence": Leveraging physical experiences, shared sports, and community gatherings to foster genuine human harmony and connection. Lowering Barriers to Access Justice: Applying technology and low-level AI guidance to make legal support more affordable, equitable, and fair. Change Management as a Core Leadership Skill: Shifting focus from day-to-day tactical execution toward building organizational consensus and motivating teams through continuous evolution. Finding Extraordinary Meaning in Ordinary Moments: Cultivating daily awareness to appreciate quiet family routines and ordinary acts of care that are often taken for granted. Embracing the Business Journey Over Destinations: Accepting that strategic goals evolve naturally as progress is made, making the growth process the ultimate measure of success. About our Guest: Nishat Mehta is the Chief Executive Officer of Lexitas, a leading national provider of technology-enabled litigation services and an Apax portfolio company based in Houston, Texas. He stepped into the CEO seat on January 1, 2025, having originally joined the company as President and Chief Operating Officer in March 2024. Under his leadership, Lexitas is launching AI-enabled deposition analysis, expanding its eLaw case-tracking platform, and continuing to serve law firms, insurance companies, and corporations across all 50 states. Nishat brings more than two decades of leadership across data, analytics, and enterprise technology. He most recently served as President of Global Products and Solutions and Chief Product Officer at Circana (formed from the merger of IRI and The NPD Group), where he ran the firm's global media, analytics, e-commerce, software, and consulting divisions. Prior to Circana, he led the customer communications team at 84.51° (Kroger's data-science and personalization arm), directed strategic partnerships at dunnhumby, and spent 15 years at MicroStrategy. He also serves on the Board of Directors of The E.W. Scripps Company (NASDAQ: SSP) and on the Board of Advisors of Adelaide Metrics. Nishat holds a Bachelor's degree in Applied Mathematics and a Master's degree in Computer Science, both from Harvard University. He lives in New York with his wife, Shalini, and their three children. His guiding quote, from John Wooden: ability may get you to the top, but it takes character to keep you there.

Laura Owens didn't just deny her felony charges, she wrote a press statement built to convince you she was innocent. This is a live episode, and Jack goes back to that original post from when she was first charged to break down exactly where her words gave her away. You'll hear how she framed the paternity case against Bachelor star Clayton Echard, and Jack has spotted something in this post from Laura that points to a level of manipulation you need to see for yourself.This one connects straight to the drama that followed, the fallout that's been picked apart everywhere from courtroom reporting to Love Trapped Podcast, and it shows you exactly how someone writes when they're guilty and think nobody's reading closely enough.Some personal thoughts on the Laura Owens case: https://neveratruerword.substack.com/p/laura-owens-pleads-guilty-some-thoughtsWant more from Never A Truer Word?

She continued in music and theater all through high school and college, all while maintaining honors in her other academic subjects. When she wasn't playing music or acting on stage, Katie was reading a book or visiting her friends in the science department, always curious about their new projects. She graduated with a Bachelor's in Theater and Music from Frostburg State University, Maryland, and then moved to New York City to start her career in the theater world. Katie continued with her self-study practices between auditions and performance gigs, and learned a handful of random other skills, one of which was teaching herself Japanese, initially on a dare.After a few years in the NYC, Katie moved to Los Angeles where she continues her career in the entertainment industry. And her pursuits of science and self-study on all the topics that interest her have not slowed down. After locating to L.A., Katie dove more deeply into the world of physics and quantum physics. And for a time, she even held a position teaching after-school programs on physics and robotics for elementary and middle school kids. Her passion for knowledge on quantum physics has been ever-growing and evolving.https://katienorris.org/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.

Today our guest is Torrin Johnson, Executive Director of MTSS at Merced Union High School District in California. Torrin shares how his district built a Tier 2 support system from the ground up, what they got wrong at first, and how pairing trained intervention coordinators with explicit skill-based curriculum helped bring their suspension rate to below 1% across 11,000 students. He also explains why matching the right intervention to the right student need is the most important and most commonly skipped step in Tier 2 implementation, and why the difference between a skill gap and a motivation gap changes everything about how a school should respond. In this conversation, Torrin offers important reminders for educators and leaders: A strong Tier 2 system does not replace Tier 1. It runs alongside it, and students receiving Tier 2 supports still need a solid Tier 1 foundation underneath them. Applying the same intervention to every student regardless of need is not neutral. Matching the right intervention to the right gap is what makes Tier 2 actually work. Students who have never been explicitly taught self-regulation and interpersonal skills will tell you so. When schools teach those skills directly, students notice and respond. Principals are central to Tier 2 success. Investing in their understanding of the why behind the system is just as important as implementing the interventions themselves.

Training doesn't end when learners leave the classroom. Tamara Palmer and Chris Byerly of Flagger Force, a leading short-term traffic control company, discuss how they blend communications, microlearning, and audience-centered messaging to keep critical safety information top of mind for a dispersed frontline workforce. Show Notes: Tamara Palmer and Chris Byerly share a practical framework for organizations with dispersed or frontline workforces to make training more effective by treating communication as an extension of learning. Their key takeaways include:Reinforcement is where learning becomes performance. People forget up to 80–90% of what they learn within a month. Palmer explains how Flagger Force uses mobile microlearning to reinforce classroom training with short, focused lessons that reach employees wherever they work.Treat training like an internal marketing campaign. Byerly argues that simply publishing training isn't enough. Organizations need healthy communication channels that employees actually value, then market learning through messaging that captures attention and builds engagement.Different audiences need different messages. Rather than sending everyone the same communication, Palmer shares her "balanced storytelling framework," tailoring messages for office staff, field leaders, and frontline workers based on each group's responsibilities and information needs.Understanding people is a strategic advantage. Drawing on employee research, Byerly explains why understanding the motivations, challenges, and needs of frontline workers leads to stronger communication, better learning, and higher engagement.Measure more than clicks. Open rates matter, but they're only the beginning. Palmer discusses using employee questions, microlearning performance, engagement data, and long-term safety outcomes to determine whether learning and communication efforts are actually changing behavior.Listen to this Powered by Learning episode featuring Flagger Force:Microlearning that Drives a Culture of SafetyAbout Chris Byerly Chris Byerly is Associate Vice President of Strategy at Flagger Force, where he leads cross-functional growth and transformation initiatives connecting brand, technology, people, and enterprise strategy.

Using glass as a medium to capture and refract light, David Yeshia seeks to freeze moments of transition, combining myriad elements to manipulate their visual and symbolic effects. Also a metaphor for his life at the time, Yeshia was smashing glass and rebuilding the fragments into something beautiful. A new breed of "artrepreneur," he emerged from the Covid pandemic bringing art out of the gallery and into the public marketplace by developing accessible and affordable works.  A self-taught Canadian glass artist known for his signature fused glass techniques, Yeshia has developed innovative methods including his "Glass Netting" technique, "Glascade" and signature "Free Mosaic" forms exploring glass as both structure and light. He was nominated for the Emerging Glass Artist of the Year Award by the Glass Art Society and has created sculptural works for government commissions and collectors across Canada. His work is sold at Walt Disney World, and his process-focused storytelling has attracted over 400,000 followers across social media, with his videos reaching tens of millions of views. Yeshia attended Concordia University Fine Arts, graduating in 2013 with a Bachelor of Arts Degree with a double major in Theater and Religious Studies. In 2017, as an exotic mushroom cultivator in Montreal, Yeshia's business was hit hard by the Covid pandemic's impact on the restaurant and food industries. At 30 years old, he moved back in with his parents in the countryside just outside of Pembroke, Ontario—emotionally drained, uncertain about the future, and feeling like a failure. Dejected, without direction, he began to experiment with glass in the stained glass studio of his father, Jeffrey Melamed, an architect turned stained glass artist.  Says Yeshia: "When I was struggling and trying to rebuild my life, my family rallied around me. Their enthusiasm for my work gave me the encouragement and confidence to keep going. My mother began attending markets, my father helped with displays, shows, and accounting, and my sister brought her creativity and many great product ideas." Yeshia's business Artglas has expanded to Markham, Ontario, and now employs a staff of seven. Early on, a pivotal meeting with Disney's Keith Bryan inspired the artist's early series of fused glass art and eventually led to his ongoing contract to design and produce ornaments for Disney. In September 2026, Artglas will return to exhibit in "The Transparent Breath," an International exhibition of glass jewelry held at Venice Glass Week. Specializing in experimental fusing techniques to create contemporary glass jewelry that represents the Canadian identity, Yeshia's Venice collection showcases his unique talents of incorporating 24-karat gold and silver into the glass. "This will be our fifth time at Venice Glass Week. It was an honor to be amongst some of the greatest glass artists of our time, in one of the world's most historic hubs of the arts," said Yeshia. "And it was overwhelming connecting with artists from all over the world, sharing our work and creativity in such an inspiring environment." In 2027, Yeshia's company will also expand its online education and subscriber platforms, open a gallery and second studio space, and create more room for one-of-a-kind and conceptual work. Artglas also has new commercial projects in development, including a Disney concept still awaiting approval. Says Yeshia: "As Artglas grew, I had to learn how to wear many different hats, including artist, maker, employer, marketer, content creator, educator, salesperson, and business owner, while still preserving the meaning, symbolism, and quality of the work."
