She also worked internationally as a clinical research associate in Lucca, Italy and Potsdam, Germany. Join us, as she dives into her fascinating story about how she found podiatric medicine. Her diverse background provides her with different perspective and she has applied this to her podiatric medicine career. She holds 9 provisional patents (as a resident!!!) and her innovation work has received first place awards at the Columbia University: Hack Health and MIT: Hacking medicine “Grandhack” competitions. Despite her incredible accomplishments, Dr. Choi is kind, humble and transparent as she discusses her passion around innovation and serving vulnerable populations.

Listen now on Apple, Spotify, and YouTube.—Loren is a UX Researcher with over 8 years of experience designing user-centered financial solutions. She's passionate about uncovering actionable insights that bridge user needs with business objectives, and specializes in transforming complex behaviors into strategies that elevate digital experiences. Loren currently works at JPMorgan Chase as a Lead UX Researcher for digital commerce solutions. Over her time at Chase she has worked across several organizations, getting to know a wide variety of customer-facing and employee-facing products and services giving her a unique insight into how the customer views Chase as a whole.Kathryn is a behavioral neuroscientist with experience in consumer research and methodological innovation. She earned her Bachelors in Neuroscience and Business from Muhlenberg College and her Masters in Behavioral and Decision Sciences at the University of Pennsylvania. She currently works at JP Morgan Chase as a User Researcher, with a focus on methodological development, infusing behavioral science and design thinking into the customer experience.In our conversation, we discuss:* What end-to-end research actually means in practice and why it starts before users ever touch your product.* How to use habit loops to map and influence real customer behavior without forcing change.* The power of live account interviews for breaking out of prototype fantasyland.* Strategies for building alignment and shifting stakeholders from “I need” to “we're solving.”* How internal playbooks, role-play exercises, and empathy maps help teams stay grounded in real life.Some takeaways:* End-to-end research isn't just a longer study, but a wider lens. Loren and Kathryn define end-to-end research as everything from a customer's initial intent to what happens after they close the product. It's not just about usability or funnel drop-off, but about how their lives influence how they interact with your product. To get real insight, you have to look outside the interface and understand what's happening before, during, and after each interaction. That kind of zoomed-out context changes the questions you ask and the recommendations you make.* Customers don't live inside your product and they won't change their habits for you. Many organizations build with the assumption that users will adapt. They won't. Through live account research, Loren uncovered how users ignore offers, stick to their routines, and reject anything that adds complexity. Kathryn explains how habit loops (cue → routine → reward) help teams understand why users behave the way they do, and why your product needs to slot into existing routines, not disrupt them.* Usability labs are structured, focused, and quiet. Real life is not. That's why live account research can be so powerful; users bring their own data, context, and mess. Watching someone navigate a real account reveals things no A/B test or journey map ever could, especially when paired with tools like empathy maps that capture what people are saying, doing, thinking, and feeling.* To build cross-team alignment, make the customer the common ground. When products span multiple teams, priorities clash. Loren uses design rationale briefs and vision statements to realign teams around what the customer wants, not just what each team needs. Kathryn emphasizes the importance of shared language and moving from “I need” to “we're building.” Getting people into the same room, physically or virtually, and grounding them in the customer's perspective is what turns politics into partnership.* If you want teams to understand context, you have to simulate real life. Kathryn runs role-playing workshops where stakeholders juggle real-life distractions while interacting with a product. It's a reminder that customers are busy, stressed, and multitasking, and your product has to work under those conditions. Loren adds that this mindset shift helps counter the overconfidence teams can get from testing in perfect research environments. Their advice: don't just study what customers say, watch what they actually do in the wild.Where to find Loren:* LinkedInWhere to find Kathryn: * LinkedInStop piecing it together.

Often described as "the gold standard" for fiscal conservatism in Congress, the National Taxpayers Union rated him the best vote for taxpayers in the House four times, most recently in 2020. Citizens Against Government Waste recently named him as one of the perfect votes in the House fighting wasteful government spending. McClintock is a member of the House Judiciary Committee where he serves as Chairman of the Subcommittee on Immigration Integrity, Security, and Enforcement and also serves on the Subcommittee on the Constitution and Limited Government. He is a senior member of the House Natural Resources Committee where he serves on the Subcommittee on Federal Lands, which he chaired from 2015 to 2018, and on the Subcommittee on Water, Wildlife, and Fisheries, which he chaired from 2011 to 2015. The Congressman is also a member of the House Budget Committee and has proposed major fiscal reforms to curb unauthorized appropriations, control mandatory spending, balance the budget and protect the nation's credit. Prior to his election to Congress, McClintock served 22 years in the California legislature, where he became one of its most recognized conservative leaders. He twice received the Republican nomination for State Controller, narrowly missing election in 2002 by 23/100ths of one percent. He ran as the conservative standard bearer for Governor in California's historic recall election in 2003. - Addison McDowell proudly represents North Carolina's 6th Congressional District. Motivated by the tragic loss of his younger brother, Luke, to a fentanyl overdose, McDowell's top priority in Congress is to tackle the drug crisis and strengthen border security to protect families and communities from the dangers posed by illegal immigration. Addison currently serves on the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, the Natural Resources Committee, and the Budget Committee. Through these committee assignments, he is fighting to make sure the critical needs of North Carolina's Sixth District are met. Prior to Congress, Addison's public service included serving on staff for Congressman (now U.S. Senator) Ted Budd and Congressman Richard Hudson, where he spent each day helping constituents in need. Addison earned his Bachelors of Arts degree in Political Science and Government from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. During this time, he met his wife, Rachel, through YoungLife Ministry. A native of Lexington, North Carolina, Addison and Rachel now reside in Davie County, where they are raising their two daughters and are active in their local church.

Fallende Bergkristalle, flauschige Outfits und hoher Besuch aus der Heimat  – Folge 8 hat nicht nur die Herzen der Bachelors, sondern auch unseren Puls ein kleines bisschen schneller schlagen lassen. Es war die große Gruppendatesfolge, in der 50 % von Team Martin krank wurden und 25 % von Team Felix noch unsympathischer wurden als bisher.Wir konnten den Aufstieg unserer Lieblingskandidatin, und den langsamen aber sicheren Absturz der Kuss-Geheimnishüterin (liebevoll als „das Beste“ selbst ernannt) beobachten. Zudem gab es kostümierte Einblicke in stille, aber wohl tiefe Wasser - Surprise… It's RealiTea Time!

Several interesting bits out of the NCEA changes for me. Firstly, the "New Zealand Certificate of Education” actually sounds like something, doesn't it? The same way an “A” tells you something. The New Zealand Certificate or Advanced Certificate of Education is a “thing” you can get your head around, as in do you have one, or do you not? NCEA is an acronym. Under the changes you need to pass things. How wonderfully old-fashioned. If you don't pass you don't advance, therefore when you do pass it actually counts. It means something and you have achieved something. Having watched NCEA in action with five kids, it has been shocking. Virtually anyone could get it and that was, and is, never a good thing. Under the new regime you take five subjects, and you need to pass four. There's nothing too complicated about that. The compulsion around maths and language I am, in a way, sad about. Choice is good and freedom is good, if you know what you are doing. If you're aiming somewhere specific a tailored approach is vastly more appealing. But in a mass system you are vulnerable to chancers and the weakest links, and they were always going to take the joke subjects, the easy gets. And as such, wreck any reputation you might have hoped for around your qualification. The vocational aspect is years overdue. Gateway and versions like it sort of touched on the trades and specific careers or jobs. But this fascination, if not obsession, we seemed to have had with university has been ruinous for too many. Being a tradie is actually to be admired. It is not second place. The snobbishness around a university degree has got so absurd, you've ended up with any number of bewildered teenagers chasing arts degrees and Bachelors of Communication for no discernible reason other than that's what they thought they should do. I'm dreadfully sad though for the thousands of kids who have been messed around with NCEA. What's its value? What weight does a generation of kids place on a thing that's been binned? For some they got locked down in Covid and given a crap qualification, thanks for coming. But onwards and upwards. It's a little bit back to the future. But along with the mad open classrooms, isn't it fascinating how forward the old days appear now to be? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's Founder Friday! I am very happy to welcome to the show the founders of Goldies Coffee Roasters Kristen Redfield and Jenna Currier! Kristen Redfield is a life-long Alaskan growing up in North Kenai, Alaska. In 2010 she began her coffee career as a barista just before graduating from the University of Alaska Anchorage with a Bachelors of Art in Art.  In 2013 she co-founded Goldie's Coffee Roasters in Anchorage with her sister Jenna and in 2018 they started their roastery. Outside of coffee Kristen loves being a mother- raising their two children with her husband Dan. They spend their free time hiking, camping and taking advantage of all Alaska has to offer.  Kristen also helps her husband run their nonprofit program Adventure for Ava in memory of their late daughter Ava Rose. Jenna Currier is a born and raised Alaskan. She is a wife, sister, entrepreneur and an award-winning coffee roaster. When she's not actively running a small business, Jenna enjoys traveling with her husband Tyler and taking advantage of Alaska's beautiful summers hiking with their two dogs, fishing, camping and spending time with family. Jenna Currier has been a part of the coffee industry since 2008, working as a barista through college until she graduated with the Bachelors of Arts in Psychology from the University of Alaska Anchorage. In 2013, she and Kristen seized the opportunity to turn their shared passion into a reality by opening their own drive thru cafe. Fueled for a love of great coffee and community, Goldies was born. For the last 12 years, Kristen and Jenna have been busy growing a small business, sourcing specialty coffee and serving freshly roasted beans in Anchorage. The search for a consistent coffee blend that would hold up in a milk based beverage ultimately led to roasting their own coffee in summer 2018. Just after a year of learning how to source, ship and roast speciality coffee, they entered their first Golden Bean Roasting Competition in Nashville, coming home with medals in multiple categories. Kristen and Jenna continue to attend industry events both nationally and at the local level. They recognize that there is always something new to learn and bring back to serve their community. They share a love for specialty coffee and exceptional customer service, and they strive to ensure every customer experiences both with each visit. Goldie's Coffee Roasters operates from a single location with a dedicated team of six staff members who work together to create a positive, welcoming, and fun environment. We get the whole story in this interview along with great insights into staffing, hospitality, drive-thru service, designing offerings for customer preference, leadership and much more!  Links:  https://goldiescoffeeroasters.com/ https://www.instagram.com/goldiescoffeeroasters/ https://www.avasstory.org/   Related episodes:   INTERESTED IN 1:1 CONSULTING AND COACHING?

One guiding principle for resisting the patriarchy in the United States is to demand equal rights for men and women. Yet, author and multidisciplinary expert Dr. Anna Malaika Tubbs argues that fighting patriarchal culture is more complicated than that. Tubbs believes that this fabricated hierarchy became so deeply ingrained over time that it now goes unnoticed. She outlines the history of patriarchy in the United States along with everything it intentionally conceals. Pulling from her latest book, Erased: What American Patriarchy Has Hidden from Us, Tubbs highlights how the United States has its own unique gendered hierarchy. From the founding fathers to the current Supreme Court justices, from enslaved women to maternal health crises, from the exclusion of women in the Constitution to the continued lack of an Equal Rights Amendment, Tubbs brings together academic research, the stories of freedom fighters, and her own experiences to reveal what is erased. She goes further, showing a patriarchal system that has survived by hiding the tools that are necessary to dismantle it. Resisting a patriarchal system, Tubbs believes, is more complicated than once thought. She argues that humanity in the United States is determined by gender in a limited and flawed binary that is also always tied to whiteness. The first step to dismantling patriarchy is to understand how deeply ingrained it is. The next step, Tubbs says, is telling a different story that highlights everything the patriarchy shrouds, and bringing it back into the narrative. Anna Malaika Tubbs is a New York Times bestselling author and multidisciplinary expert on current and historical understandings of race, gender, and equity. With a Ph.D. in Sociology and a Masters in Multidisciplinary Gender Studies from the University of Cambridge in addition to a Bachelors in Medical Anthropology from Stanford University, Anna translates her academic knowledge into stories that are clear and engaging. Her articles have been published by TIME Magazine, New York Magazine, CNN, Motherly, the Huffington Post, For Harriet, The Guardian, Darling Magazine, and Blavity. Anna's storytelling also takes form in her talks, including her TED Talk that has been viewed 2 million times, as well as the scripted and unscripted screen projects she has in development. She lives in Los Angeles with her husband and their three kids. Florangela Davila is a newsroom leader and journalist who has been working in Seattle media for more than two decades. She's earned regional and national awards for her own work as the former race and immigration reporter for The Seattle Times, and has led teams at Crosscut/Cascade PBS and at KNKX Public Radio to accolades, including the 2024 national Edward R. Murrow award for Overall Excellence in the large market radio category. In February, she joined the BIPOC-led and focused online journalism outlet The South Seattle Emerald as executive director.

In this episode, Mardi Winder-Adams has an uplifting conversation with Stephanie McPhail, who is not only a certified crisis counselor but also someone who has been through the highs and lows of divorce. Stephanie shares how, despite looking like she had it all together as an accomplished teacher and professional, she was struggling behind closed doors in a difficult and even abusive marriage. Her story will resonate with anyone who's ever felt isolated, embarrassed, or stuck in the idea that they must keep up appearances while holding things together.Stephanie talks about how easy it is to get trapped in comparison, whether it's looking at others in equally unhealthy relationships or scrolling through social media and seeing everyone's happy posts while you're feeling lost or overwhelmed. She discusses the pressure, especially on high-achievers, to pretend everything is fine, even when it's not, simply because opening up can feel risky or shameful. Mardi adds from her experience as a divorce coach and advocate, reinforcing how common these feelings are, and they both agree that the secrecy and pressure to handle everything alone can make things so much harder than they need to be.They also break down some of the traps people fall into during and after divorce, like waiting until things are legally finalized before reaching out for support, or expecting your lawyer to guide you through emotional healing, when you may need someone who understands the whole picture. Stephanie introduces the Divorce Support Network, a practical resource she co-founded that matches people with specifically vetted professionals, from financial advisors and therapists to real estate agents and mechanics. The goal is to make sure nobody has to fumble through the process alone, so you can spend less time worrying about where to turn and more time focusing on your own well-being and future.Throughout the conversation, there's a reassuring message: however you're feeling right now, you're not alone, and it is possible to create a new, fulfilling chapter after divorce. With the right kind of help and community, the process doesn't have to be isolating or overwhelming. About the Guest:Stephanie McPhail is a Love and Life Success Coach and Co-Founder of the largest Divorce Support Network in the United States.

Fr. Michael Copenhagen is a Melkite (Eastern Catholic) priest, husband, and father, at St. Nicholas the Wonderworker Melkite Catholic Church in Gates, New York. He holds a Bachelors of Sacred Theology from the Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas in Rome. In Today's Show: Are there any Rites that do not fulfill one's Sunday obligation? How can we help prepare children who are getting ready to do their first confession? Can you suggest ways that we can reach out to the young people in our parish? Can you explain how the Bible considers Jesus' resurrection to have occurred after 3 days?  What exactly is Heaven?  Does the wife of an Eastern priest have a special title? If we were to discover life on other planets, how might that affect our Catholic beliefs? After praying for healing, is it possible that a person may experience pain for a while as a result of the Lord's intervention? Does God ever change his mind? Are Eastern rite churches allowed to play or use patriotic music during The Divine Liturgy? If I drank from a water bottle before Mass that had some crumbs from my toddler in it, does that violate the Eucharistic fast?

Subscribe to All One Song: A Neil Young Podcast Welcome to the very first episode of All One Song: A Neil Young podcast, presented by Aquarium Drunkard Transmissions. Join liner notes author, musician, and Shakey historian Tyler Wilcox and an array of great musicians and writers discussing their favorite Neil Young song, diving deep into Shakey lore and getting personal about this amazing body of work. It's a series for Neil heads by Neil heads. Our first guest on All One Song should need no introduction for long time Aquarium Drunkard readers. But let's give him one anyway! For the past 15 years or so, ⁠Steve Gunn⁠ has built up one of the strongest, most wide-ranging catalogs in independent music. He's released classic albums on such labels as Three Lobed, Paradise of Bachelors, Matador and more. Steve is a singer-songwriter-guitarist triple threat with a powerful sense of adventure and imagination that's always worth paying attention to, whether he's collaborating with drummer John Truscinski in the ⁠Gunn-Truscinski Duo⁠, creating beautiful soundscapes ⁠with David Moore⁠, or ⁠playing all on his own⁠. Steve's latest album, ⁠Music For Writers⁠, falls into the latter category. Coming out on August 15 on Three Lobed, this is his first completely solo instrumental record — he played all the instruments, building luminous, hypnotic pieces that encourage the listener to slow down and really listen. The songs here aren't just ambient background sounds. They're sonic meditations that take you to some other place.   The solo aspect of Music For Writers dovetails nicely with the Neil Young song that Steve chose for us to discuss: “Will To Love.” This is a unique one in Neil's catalog and a song that's prized by die-hard Shakey fans. Accompanied only by a crackling fire, Neil recorded the basic track at his ranch in the spring of 1976, somewhere in between his European tour with Crazy Horse and the ill-fated Stills-Young Band trip that summer. Then he put it aside, for a few months, only returning to it in December of 76, when he went into Indigo Studios in Malibu to overdub vocals, keyboards, guitars, drums, even vibes, aided and abetted by producer David Briggs. By the time it was released on American Stars n Bars in 1977, “Will To Love” was a ghostly, seven-minute piece of music that's unlike almost anything else he'd done before or anything he's done since.

Defiants have gotten quite a bit of press in the last year and CanardCast is continuing that trend as Terry interviews Vernon Asper, builder and owner of the Lycoming equipped Defiant N22VL based at KDKX in Knoxville. I met with Vernon last October at the Hangar Hotel in Fredericksburg, Texas as part of a gathering of Defiants. He had flown N22VL in to meet with five other Defiants we cobbled together in an attempt to break the known record of seven Defiants in one location set back in the early 1990's. At that event Vernon and I also joined a small party on a short ground excursion to the location of the Mooney Aircraft Factory location in nearby Kerville, Texas.  Born and raised in PA, Vernon later moved to both Hawaii and to Massachusetts to attend school then on to Mississippi to serve in his career an oceanographer. He has spent more than 1300 days at sea all over the world, including 20 trips to Antarctica and dives in 3 different submersibles.Vernon is well versed in academics holding the trifecta of a Bachelors from Messiah College of PA, a Masters from the University of Hawaii and Ph.D from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution.Vernon's first introduction to flight was in Hawaii in 1979 and he began taking flight lessons in MA in 1980 where he earned is private pilot license. He pretty much only flies his Defiant except when a flight review instructor demands that he uses a school plane since his Defiant doesn't have rudder pedals on the starboard side. Vernon married in 1977 to Lindell who earned her license in 1984.  He has two Daughters and four granddaughters. Alicia with granddaughters Daphne and Penelope live in Belgium and Jennifer with granddaughters Maddie and Grayson who live in Knoxville, TN. Enjoy the interview!

He holds a Bachelors of Sacred Theology from the Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas in Rome. In Today's Show: Is there a difference between telling the truth and being judgmental? What can one do if they stop feeling guilty after a habitual sin? Is it permissible for a professional athlete to work on Sundays? Are there different beliefs regarding transubstantiation in the Eastern Rite Catholic churches? How can you tell what God's will is for you? Can a non-Catholic attend confession? When attending mass, does one have to focus on the prayers of the priest? Can you pray a rosary while the mass is going on? Is it a sin to gamble, if I have a set amount of money set aside for the purpose of gambling.  And if it is a sin, is it mortal or venial? I have a friend who is straying away from the faith, what can I say to help him?

Saying “I can't” sounds controlled. Saying “I won't” sounds unstoppable. In this episode, I explore the life-changing difference between the two, teaching teens how to own their values with power and confidence, whether it's about religious standards, digital discipline, or resisting peer pressure. This episode gives teens the tools to stop sounding limited and start standing tall.

This week on The Monday Edit, we have a very special guest joining in on the Monday fun: best selling author Anna Malaika Tubbs stopped by to tell us all about her new book, Erased: What American Patriarchy Has Hidden from Us and helps us hone in on real time examples of our Patriarchy is being weaponized today. Anna unpacks how the United States has constructed a unique—and often invisible—gendered hierarchy, one that is inextricably linked to whiteness and a deeply flawed binary system. From the founding fathers to the current Supreme Court, from the erasure of women in the Constitution to the ongoing fight for the Equal Rights Amendment, Dr. Tubbs reveals the mechanisms that have kept women's contributions hidden and their voices suppressed. Anna Malaika Tubbs is a scholar, advocate, and bestselling author (The Three Mothers: How the Mothers of Martin Luther King, Jr., Malcolm X, and James Baldwin Shaped a Nation) whose work brings a fresh, urgent perspective on American history and its gendered systems. With a Ph.D. in Sociology and a Masters in Multidisciplinary Gender Studies from the University of Cambridge and a Bachelors in Medical Anthropology from Stanford University, Anna translates her academic knowledge into clear and engaging stories. Her articles have been published by TIME Magazine, New York Magazine, CNN, Motherly, The Huffington Post, For Harriet, The Guardian, Darling Magazine, and Blavity. Anna's storytelling also takes form in her talks, including her TED Talk that has been viewed 2 million times, as well as the scripted and unscripted screen projects she has in development. She lives in Los Angeles with her husband, former Mayor of Stockton, CA Michael Tubbs  and their three young children. Not A Phase.
