Our Chief Fixed Income Strategist Vishy Tirupattur and U.S. Head of Credit Strategy Vishwas Patkar discuss the implications of private credit's exposure to the software industry.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Vishy Tirupattur: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I am Vishy Tirupattur, Morgan Stanley's Chief Fixed Income Strategist. Vishwas Patkar: I'm Vishwas Patkar, Morgan Stanley's U.S. Head of Credit Strategy. Vishy Tirupattur: While potential disruption from AI has been a key driver for markets [in the] last few weeks, the focus of investor agenda has been in the software sector. On today's podcast, we will talk about software in the credit markets and its implications. It's Monday, March 2nd at 10am in New York. Vishwas, let's start by understanding how the exposure in software manifests in the credit markets. How does it compare to software, say, in the equity market? Vishwas Patkar: Yeah, so the software exposure in credit markets is large, and understandably that's why investors are closely watching what's happening with software in the equity market. But what's interesting and important for investors to note is the exposure in credit is very different from what it is in equities. So, for instance, a good chunk of exposure in the credit market is around private issuers. So, we estimate about 80 percent of companies are private in the whole sample set that we looked at. And that's largely a function of the fact that software is not a big part of the more liquid spaces like Investment Grade and High Yield. But it is heavily represented in the more opaque parts of the market, like leveraged loans, CLOs, and, you know, BDCs. So, our analysis found that about 25 percent of BDC portfolios are in software, closely followed by private credit CLOs. And leveraged loan market was about 16 percent. So, that's an important distinction to keep in mind versus the equity market. The second thing I would flag is – because the software sector grew a lot in the loan market through the LBO wave of 2020 and 2021, it has a weaker credit quality skew to it than the overall market. So about 50 percent of borrowers in the sector are rated B - or lower. So, that's the lowest rungs of the rating spectrum. Many of these software deals were underwritten with higher leverage than the broad market. And as a result of that you also have more front-loaded maturities in the sector, which brings the risks of refinancing, if some of this disruption persists. But Vishy, that's a nice segue to you. Over the past couple of years, you looked at the private credit market in depth and that's where I think the exposure we found is the highest in BDCs, you know, which is the public face of private credit. So, in your assessment, what is the risk of software to private credit, given all of the headlines that are popping up? Vishy Tirupattur: Public face of private credit – Vishwas, that's a great line. BDCs – business development corporations for those who are not familiar – are companies that invest in the debt of small and medium sized companies, sourced through non-bank channels. BDCs fund themselves through equity and debt issuance. So, if you look at the portfolios of BDCs to look at their exposure to software, there's a wide variation across the various BDC portfolios. What makes the assessment of these software risks in BDCs challenging is that many of these companies are private companies without the reporting obligations of public companies. So, no earnings reports, no 10-Ks or cues or broadly publicly available financials look at. So, in effect, these companies need to be re underwritten to evaluate which of these companies would be disrupted from AI; and which companies could actually benefit from AI and see their margins expand. So, in the context of BDCs, liability spreads are something we are watching closely. BDC liability spreads have widened but we think more needs to happen there. The clearing levels need to wait for the full resolution of the companies that benefit and that get hurt by disruption that is still awaited. So, we expect credit spreads of BDCs to remain volatile for some time to come. Vishwas Patkar: Okay. So, seems like this is a significant, or at least a non-trivial risk factor for credit markets, given the growth of the sector, leverage, the skew and quality. But Vishy, do you think this could be systemic for risk markets at large? Vishy Tirupattur: So, I do think that this is a significant risk, but I don't think it's a systemic risk. The amount of leverage in BDC is fairly small. About 2x is the kind of leverage. You compare that to the kind of leverage that existed in the financial system before the financial crisis – that's orders of magnitude smaller risk. And also the linkage to the banking system comes through the back leverage provided to the non-bank lenders. But this leverage is substantially risk remote with very high subordination levels. So, my conclusion here is this is a significant risk but not a systemic risk. So let me turn the same question to you, Vishwas. Taking on a sort of historical perspective as well as a macro perspective, how do you see this risk manifesting in the broader credit space? Vishwas Patkar: Yeah, so I would agree with you Vishy, that we need to see a valuation reset. We think spreads should go wider because of disruption concerns, even if they affect a relatively narrow part of the market. But a lot of that's happening against issuance that's rising. But I would say the risk of systemic concerns really emerging is relatively low. if you look at historical cycles where credit has been the weak link in the economy, those are typically characterized by a lot of corporate re-leveraging. So, think about the late 1990s or from 2004 to 2007 or the early 2000-teens. These are all cycles where corporates were being very aggressive, adding a lot of debt. And you know, when the economy slowed, credit became the source of some default and downgrade concerns. We haven't really seen that type of credit cycle play out at all in the past few years. If you look at corporate debt to GDP, for example, it's gone down each of the last five years. Balance sheet corporate leverage has been flat or actually gone lower in spots. M&A activity, which is usually a good indicator of corporate aggressiveness, still remains below trend. So, I think we have had a fairly restrained credit cycle where in place fundamentals are quite strong. And that's why I think the systemic contagion from any credit spread weakness, I think could be relatively muted. Vishy Tirupattur: So, the key takeaway from us is that software and credit is a significant risk but is not quite systemic risk. Thanks for listening.

In this episode of the Grow A Small Business Podcast, host Troy Trewin interviews Daniel McDonnell co-founder of Maple Movement, shares how severe gut health issues during his professional Ironman career led him to discover the power of maple syrup as a natural fuel source and launch Maple Movement. What began as a house-deposit gamble quickly evolved into a fast-growing gut-friendly energy gel brand now stocked in 125+ stores across Australia and New Zealand. Daniel opens up about bootstrapping the business, learning margins from scratch, managing rapid growth from his living room, and transitioning to a 3PL. He dives into brand positioning, organic content strategy, subscription revenue, and building a lean, aligned team. It's a raw, practical story of turning personal pain into a scalable FMCG business with purpose and momentum. Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth. And focus your time and energy and make the most of this year. Let's get into it by clicking here. Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to Daniel McDonnell, the hardest part of growing a small business is keeping up with rapid growth before scalable systems are fully in place, especially during big sales months when demand spikes beyond operational capacity. He shared how he and his wife were packing nearly 95 orders a day from their living room while trying to maintain a personal brand touch, highlighting that the real challenge wasn't generating sales but managing growth sustainably while building the right infrastructure to support it. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Daniel said his favorite business book that's helped him the most is "Built to Sell" by John Warrillow — a practical guide about structuring and scaling a business so it's not dependent on the founder and becomes sellable. He's mentioned it shaped how he thinks about systems, value creation, and building something that can run beyond him. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? According to Daniel McDonnell, one podcast he highly recommends for small business growth is Chew the Fat by the Greive brothers, where they share real, relatable stories after building and exiting Realbase. He values listening to founders who have scaled and exited businesses, as their practical lessons help avoid costly mistakes. Daniel also emphasizes learning directly from experienced mentors and operators rather than figuring everything out the hard way. For him, real-world business conversations and founder-led insights have been the most impactful learning resources. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Daniel McDonnell would point to a tool that helps you systemize and scale without chaos, and one he personally recommends is Notion — it's where he organizes products, SOPs, content calendars, order processes, and more in one place so nothing slips through the cracks. He also emphasizes tools for automating the parts of your business that don't need manual work, like Mailchimp or Klaviyo for email automation, and Shopify + a good 3PL integration to handle orders cleanly as volume grows. For analytics and ads, basic dashboards like Google Analytics and Facebook/Meta Business Suite help you make smarter decisions instead of guessing. The key, he says, isn't having every tool under the sun — it's picking the ones that actually save you time and help you standardize your processes so the business can scale. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? According to Daniel McDonnell, on day one he would tell himself to raise far more capital than he thinks he needs, understand margins and cash flow from the start, and build scalable systems early—because growth can come fast, but without enough cash and structure, it becomes far more stressful than it needs to be.

Pool Pros text questions hereThis Friday episode digs into one of the most argued topics in pool care: range chemistry and the Langelier Saturation Index (LSI).Rudy takes us back to 1936 and the work of Wilfred F. Langelier, who developed a model to prevent municipal water pipes from dissolving or scaling shut. LSI was never designed for swimmers. It was built to answer one simple question:Will this water dissolve calcium carbonate… or deposit it?That's it.Pools adopted LSI later because plaster behaves like municipal concrete. Your pool is essentially a miniature water system — just with sunscreen and cannonballs.What LSI Does (and Doesn't Do)LSI predicts calcium carbonate equilibrium. It protects:PlasterGroutHeatersSalt cellsTile linesWhat it does not tell you:If chlorine is killing pathogens fast enoughIf chloramines are risingIf nitrification is occurringIf biofilm is formingIf oxidation demand is being metLSI protects the vessel. It does not guarantee sanitation.Where 7.2–7.8 Came FromNo single person invented the modern pH range. It evolved from the overlap of:Human physiology (comfort and irritation)Chlorine chemistry (HOCl vs OCl⁻ balance)Cement durability researchRegulatory standardsEven phenol red test kits influenced it — operators standardized what they could clearly see and control.The Cyanuric Acid Blind SpotIf you don't subtract roughly one-third of CYA from total alkalinity before calculating LSI, your saturation balance is wrong.And LSI does not account for chlorine kinetics at all.You can have:A perfect 0.00 LSIHigh CYASlower disinfectionRising combined chlorineBiofilm quietly developingThe plaster may be safe. The water may not be optimal.Salt Cells, Heaters & MicroenvironmentsLSI models bulk water.Inside salt cells and heaters, localized pH spikes can create scaling even when your overall LSI reads balanced. Context matters. Temperature matters. Ionic strength matters.Water chemistry is not binary — it's gradient-based.The Real TakeawayRange chemistry isn't stupid. It's probabilistic. It works under average conditions in average pools.The mistake is believing ranges are universal laws.LSI is necessary — but not sufficient. Balance is not a number. It's interaction between thermodynamics, kinetics, microbiology, and material science.Stop worshiping the calculator. Start managing the system.

Christian Smith has long operated at the intersection of progressive and techno. As both DJ, producer and label boss of Tronic, his work is defined by precision, propulsion and an instinct for evolution that has kept him at the top of his game for more than two decades. A constant presence in global clubs and festivals, Smith's output remains relentless. His productions draws on a deep understanding of dancefloor psychology shaped over years behind the decks. The recent Follow Me EP with us underscores that position. Rooted in groove yet engineered for peak-time moments, it reflects an artist who has refined the art of impact. 

 On this Balance Selections mix, the pioneer delivers on those years of refinement. Featuring tracks from Gai Barone, Jamie Stevens and Mariano Mellino, this is a muscular mix that knows when to pull on emotional levers. @christiansmith Tracklisting & interview: https://balancemusic.com.au/balance-selections-christian-smith ------------------------------------- Follow: Instagram: www.instagram.com/balance_series Facebook: www.facebook.com/balanceseriesmusic Youtube: www.youtube.com/@balancemusicofficial

Metals and oil dominated the market narrative in the last few weeks. Natural gas, however, has also been dynamic, having gone through its own period of volatility at the end of January due to cold sprees in the US and Europe. In this episode, we discuss the European gas market, our updated price forecast and the range of new infrastructure projects that are coming online.   Speakers:  Natasha Kaneva, Head of Global Commodities Research Otar Dgebuadze, Global Natural Gas Research   This podcast was recorded on February 27, 2026.   This communication is provided for information purposes only.

Most people think “balance” is just standing on one foot… but real life doesn't work that way. If you've ever felt unsteady on stairs, in a crowded room, or just getting up too quickly, you're not alone, and it's usually not just “age.” Today's guest is Eileen Kopsaftis, BS, PT, FAFS, CMI, NE. She is the founder of Have Lifelong Wellbeing. Eileen is an eclectically trained physical therapist, nutrition educator, and best-selling author of two books, "Pain Culprits!" and "Aging Culprits!" Her passion is to teach people how to age without decline and move without pain. Eileen uses her extensive post-graduate education of more than 2,000 hours in a unique approach to resolve the root causes of pain and dysfunction. Teaching accurate facts about pain, movement, and aging that are mostly unknown is her specialty.In this episode, we break down balance training to prevent falls in a way that actually makes sense for everyday life. You'll hear the key difference between balance (holding a position) and stability (regaining your position after you're bumped, rushed, or off-center). That distinction changes how you should train, especially if you want to keep moving confidently in your 50s, 60s, 70s and beyond. We also touch on why posture, strength, and mobility work together, and why “quick fixes” that only mask symptoms don't build the resilience your body needs long term. The goal is simple: smarter movement now, fewer limitations later. If you want a clearer plan and a practical way to start, Listen to the full conversation. It's one of the most important perspectives on balance training to prevent falls and aging well that we've shared.Episode Links:https://havelifelongwellbeing.com/https://mwpprivateclub.com/https://hlwacademy.com/https://www.youtube.com/c/EileenKopsaftisLearn More: https://www.alluremedical.com/Books & Research: https://www.alluremedical.com/books/Follow Dr. Charles Mok & Allure Medical: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/charles-mok-4a0432114/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alluremedicals/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AllureMedical TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@alluremedicalAmazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Dr.-Charles-Mok/author/B0791M9FZQInner Circle Membership: https://www.alluremedic#insidethecure #mobility #balance #stability #improvebalance

Inflation, record market highs, early retirement dreams, and complex estate questions—retirement planning doesn't happen in isolation. In this episode of the Retire Sooner Podcast, Wes Moss and Christa DiBiase translate timely headlines and listener scenarios into thoughtful, long-term financial planning considerations. • Assess how rising grocery and beef prices reflect inflation and evaluate ways to think about purchasing power over time. • Review stock market all-time highs alongside historical correction patterns to frame risk within a diversified allocation. • Examine what retiring in your 40s may require, including savings rates, spending assumptions, and trade-offs. • Structure financial support for younger family members through gifting strategies, investment vehicles, and clear boundaries. • Stress-test retirement projections—including tools like Wealthfront's PATH—by applying more conservative inputs. • Balance equity exposure with “dry powder” assets in the context of withdrawal rates and long-term income needs. • Coordinate irregular or business-owner income by aligning tax planning, liquidity, and disciplined investment decisions. • Consider when a commercial trustee may be appropriate for long-term estate and legacy planning goals. Retirement clarity comes from steady evaluation and informed decisions—not short-term noise.

The Best Worst Thing That Ever Happened A conversation on sobriety, entrepreneurship, and rebuilding a life that actually works There's a certain kind of person who can build something from nothing. They're driven. Intense. Creative. Restless. They work hard. They push. They win. And sometimes… they self-destruct. In this conversation, Tim shares what it looked like to be both a high-achieving entrepreneur and a blackout drinker—and how recovery didn't just save his life, it reshaped his ambition, identity, and purpose. This isn't a story about "before and after." It's a story about learning how to live differently.     The drive started early Tim began drinking in middle school after his parents divorced and he moved to a new town. Trying to fit in quickly became the gateway to alcohol and drugs. At the same time, he was already wired for achievement. In college, he launched a painting business, hired teams, ran sales and marketing, and made real money—while partying just as hard. That "work hard, play hard" rhythm followed him into adulthood. Success grew. So did the consequences. A devastating drunk-driving crash left him with a traumatic brain injury and months of recovery. Even then, he didn't stop drinking—he just learned how to drink harder and longer. If anything, achievement became another way to avoid looking at what was really happening.     High performance can hide a lot Tim went on to build businesses, lead teams, and outperform expectations. But behind the scenes: drugs escalated relationships deteriorated burnout intensified drinking became non-negotiable He describes always being "the most messed up person at every event," even while breaking performance records. That's the part people don't talk about. Addiction doesn't always look like collapse. Sometimes it looks like productivity.     The moment everything broke The turning point came after a blackout weekend that ended his marriage. It wasn't just one mistake—it was the undeniable accumulation of years of denial. Within days, he attended his first AA meeting. He hadn't planned a recovery journey. He just knew his life couldn't keep going like that. He started going to meetings every day. Sometimes two a day. He got a sponsor, worked the steps, and immersed himself in service. That structure became his lifeline.     Recovery didn't shrink his life—it expanded it One of the biggest myths about sobriety is that it takes things away. For Tim, it gave him: community purpose emotional connection clarity direction He learned to build intimacy with other people without substances. He learned to cry, share honestly, and ask for help. He learned that vulnerability wasn't weakness—it was relief. And slowly, ambition changed shape. Instead of chasing validation, he started building a life rooted in service and meaning. Today, he works in recovery, supports others, and still channels his drive—but with balance and intention.     The routines that keep him grounded Recovery isn't a single decision. It's a daily structure. Tim's core practices include: morning prayer and meditation gratitude lists exercise and physical health journaling and learning service and community time with people who support his growth He describes gratitude as essential: "If I'm grateful, then I'm not a victim."  Exercise, too, became foundational—not just for fitness, but for mental and emotional stability. He calls it part of his "solution," not just a habit.     The entrepreneurial paradox There's a pattern many high performers recognize: intense focus extreme discipline relentless drive These traits build companies. But without awareness, they also: fuel burnout mask emotional pain replace one addiction with another Recovery didn't remove Tim's intensity. It taught him how to channel it without destroying himself. Balance became the new metric—not output.     Action Steps: What you can take from this conversation You don't need to be in addiction to benefit from recovery principles. These are life principles. 1) Build a grounding morning routine Start simple: gratitude stillness reflection Consistency matters more than complexity. 2) Replace extremes with consistency You don't need heroic bursts of effort. You need steady, repeatable actions. 3) Notice where achievement becomes avoidance Ask yourself: Am I building… or escaping? Am I creating… or distracting? 4) Find your people Recovery happens in connection. Whether it's: 12-step meetings coaching groups fitness communities spiritual spaces Isolation keeps people stuck. 5) Anchor your life in service Helping others stabilizes your own growth. It creates meaning that performance alone never will.     Resources Mentioned Books The Four Agreements — Don Miguel Ruiz Living Untethered — Michael Singer Practices AA / 12-step community meditation + gratitude routines exercise for mental regulation yoga and breathwork cold exposure / recovery practices Recovery & Treatment Work Camelback Recovery TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) as a non-invasive mental health support approach Guest Contact Info: https://www.camelbackrecovery.com/

In this empowering episode, Laura is joined by Pamela Gelie, Founder of URise,  for a heartfelt and practical conversation on what it truly means to redefine balance…especially as Black women navigating multiple roles, expectations, and seasons of life. Pamela shares her personal journey of pursuing greater freedom, meaning, and values alignment, including how her search for balance ultimately led to a career pivot. Together, Laura and Pamela explore how balance is not a fixed destination, but a living, evolving practice shaped by our responsibilities, our resilience, and our willingness to honor what we need. This episode also dives into the complex relationship many Black women have with resilience. While strength is often celebrated, Laura and Pamela discuss how the "Strong Black Woman" trope can sometimes make it difficult to soften, rest, and be fully human—especially in moments when we don't want to bounce back quickly. Aligned with Season 8's theme "Leaning Into Joy," this conversation invites listeners to consider balance as a pathway to joy; one that prioritizes inner clarity, wellbeing, and intentional living over perfection or constant performance.   About Pamela Born in France to Afro-Caribbean parents, Pamela grew up between cultures and learned to adapt across worlds. A decade in London shaped her career leading customer experience in global organisations across the UK and France. Those years taught her how to deliver at scale while navigating complexity and multicultural environments. Illness, mental health challenges in family and discrimination tested her but also built resilience and empathy. Motherhood deepened her drive to create freedom and balance for her kids and the next generation. Today, she channels her journey and a profound sense of ''Give Back' into URise, the company so founded to turn lived experience into impact. It allows her to blend leadership, purpose and reinvention in equal measure.

In a world where many professionals spend their days behind screens, thinking, analyzing, and producing ideas, it's easy to become disconnected from the body. Over time, this disconnection often shows up as fatigue, chronic tension, poor posture, or persistent physical pain. Not to mention, the way we interact with technology is literally changing the shapes of out bodies.  In this episode, I talk with with Dr. Kyrs Hines, orthopedic physical therapist to explore how knowledge workers can stay grounded, regulated, and physically supported while navigating cognitively demanding work. Dr Kyrs shares practical ways to integrate movement into daily routines, create ergonomic environments that support physical alignment and shift our relationship with physical pain from avoidance to awareness. This conversation bridges science, embodiment, and real-life application — helping you work smarter while caring for your physical well-being. If you spend most of your day sitting, feel tension building during work hours, or want sustainable strategies to prevent burnout and body pain, this episode offers actionable tools you can begin using immediately. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why knowledge workers often become disconnected from their bodies How sedentary work impacts posture, energy, and nervous system Simple ways to habit stack and add movement into your daily life without needing long workouts Ergonomic principles that support spinal alignment and reduce strain How to set up your workspace to support long-term physical health A mindful approach to understanding and working with physical pain   _____________ Resources: Take a mindful moment in your day while moving!

Dr. Brent Sleasman argues that leaders who cling to certainty—predictability, control, and stable cause-and-effect—are setting themselves up to fail in today's environment. In an uncertain age, organizations must separate mission from program, experiment without over-attaching to solutions, and build teams that balance visionaries and integrators. The goal isn't chaos; it's realism, adaptability, and a mission-driven posture that can keep moving even when the map keeps changing. Key moments (timestamps) 0:24–1:17 – The premise: clinging to certainty is a low-percentage path 1:34–2:47 – What "certainty" actually means: predictability → control 5:13–8:05 – Why the "insanity" quote breaks down in uncertain environments 8:42–9:43 – The blunt warning: stability-clingers are on a path toward organizational death 11:05–12:59 – Mission vs. program: stop conflating the two 13:18–15:11 – Discipleship analogy: start with mission, program follows 15:11–16:10 – "Love the problem more than you love the solution" 16:15–20:55 – Myers-Briggs J vs P: why the "organized" leaders can still drive off a cliff 21:01–24:27 – Balance matters: visionary + integrator, apostle + teacher 27:06–28:02 – Best practice: work shoulder-to-shoulder with trusted people 28:08–29:07 – Coaching frame: explore first, then act Key ideas  Certainty is the belief that you can predict outcomes. Prediction quietly becomes a demand for control. Uncertainty isn't a temporary storm—it's the climate. Acting like it's 1999 is the real risk. The "insanity" quote gets flipped: In an unstable environment, doing the same thing and expecting the same result may be the truly insane move. Mission and program are not the same thing. Programs are time-bound expressions of mission. Healthy organizations balance roles: visionaries/curiosity with integrators/stability. Tools help, but people matter more. Working together—friction and all—beats perfect assessments on paper. Quotable lines "Those that cling to certainty are set on a path that has got a low percentage of success." "Following prediction is control." "I can control the immediate and the longer-term future—and that's just not the reality today." "In an uncertain environment… the insane thing would have been doing the same thing and expecting the same result." "Those that cling to stability, those that cling to certainty, are on a path toward organizational death." "Very rarely are specific programs the mission." "You've got to love the problem more than you love the solution." "Surround yourself with people that you trust… admit that it's going to be messy." Discussion questions  Where are you still operating as if your environment is stable—even though it isn't? What "program" have you accidentally treated like it is the mission? What's one experiment you could run this month that serves the mission without defending old forms? Are you more "visionary curiosity" or "stability integrator"? Who balances you? What would it look like to "love the problem" without getting addicted to your favorite solution? Listener takeaway If you need certainty to lead, you're going to be miserable right now—and you might make your organization miserable too. The better path is to anchor in mission, loosen your grip on programs, and build a team that can both explore and execute. Uncertainty doesn't require panic; it requires humility, experimentation, and the willingness to trade control for learning.

Send a textIn this episode, we continue to explore the topic of "Time" and "Balance." Listen to Dr White's discussion with Dr Ben Aiken, a graduate of UNC-Chapel Hill and the MAHEC Family Medicine Residency who now leads Lantern Health, a direct primary care practice with two locations in Asheville NC. Dr Aiken shares the lessons he has learned in his first job as a "juggler" and later as a collegiate athlete, student, resident, practicing physician, husband, and father. In addition to practical tips on incorporating physical activity and emotional health in an office setting, he offers wise perspectives on the future of Family Medicine, encouraging patience,  persistence, and optimism. You will quickly understand why his grandfather, a revered Family Physician who practiced in Tennessee, would be so proud of his grandson today.

DEBUNKED: Exposing Every Lie In Ken Burns' New Anti-American Documentary. Today on the Matt Walsh Show we are going to take a close look at a piece of sophisticated anti-American propaganda just released by PBS and the documentary filmmaker Ken Burns. There is a neverending effort to make Americans embarrassed of their history, and to give credit for its achievements to people who don't deserve it. American history has been rewritten for this purpose. Today we will debunk the lies. Also, Pennsylvania just passed a law against hair discrimination. That sounds absurd, and it is, but it's even worse and more nefarious than you think.

How do you become someone who stays balanced when everything around you feels uncertain?As entrepreneurs and high achievers, we're taught to double down on strategy, optimize our numbers, and chase the next milestone. But what if the real competitive advantage isn't found in better KPIs—but in a steadier nervous system? I want you to ask yourself: when pressure hits, do you react…or do you respond?In this episode of Success Genius, we explore the powerful character trait of equanimity—the ability to stay calm, clearheaded, and composed in the middle of chaos. Because the truth is, launches will flop, revenue will fluctuate, and unexpected setbacks will happen. The question isn't how to avoid stress. It's how to stay steady within it.We dive into the neuroscience behind losing your balance—how a depleted “body budget” (sleep, stress, nourishment, movement) can push your brain into threat mode. When your nervous system feels unsafe, everything feels catastrophic. But when you learn to regulate it, you create the biological capacity for wise decisions, discernment, and follow-through.This isn't about toxic positivity or pretending everything's fine. It's about feeling your emotions without being ruled by them. It's about restoring your equilibrium faster. Through simple tools like the physiological sigh, morning light, and body awareness, you can train yourself to become someone who doesn't crumble under pressure—but recalibrates.Because when character is lost, everything is lost. And equanimity is the trait that protects it all.Join me as we unpack how to build balance as a daily practice—not a personality trait—and why becoming someone who stays calm under pressure might be the most important success strategy of all.Topics covered in this episode include:Why equanimity is the character trait that protects everything elseHow stress and a depleted “body budget” hijack your decision-makingThe neuroscience behind emotional regulation and staying steady under pressurePractical tools like the physiological sigh, morning light, and body scans to restore balanceHow to build equanimity as a daily practice—not just a personality traitReady to stop reacting and start responding?Tune in to learn how to stay calm in chaos, make wiser decisions under pressure, and become someone who remains balanced—no matter what life or business throws your way.Resources Mentioned:Get The Book:  https://book.neillwilliams.com/bookLearn More About TEAM90:  https://neillwilliams.com/team90Book A Team Turnaround Call:  https://neillwilliams.com/team-turnaround-callContact Us: support@neillwilliams.com

Welcome back to Late Boomers! We're your hosts, Cathy Worthington and Merry Elkins, and today we're diving into a topic that's close to our hearts—and so important to living our best third act: Fitness After 50. Whether you're just entering this milestone or already thriving in your 60s, 70s, or beyond, this episode is packed with inspiration, practical advice, and real stories to help you stay strong, independent, and energized at every age.We sit down with Michael Guadagnino, author of Fitness Over 50, 60, 70, and Beyond, who shares his passion for helping boomers unlock their potential through movement—no matter their starting point. Michael sheds light on why the habits we build post-50 make such an impact on our longevity, happiness, confidence, and daily independence. We also bust some damaging fitness myths, talk about the power of functional strength, and get actionable tips for building a routine that feels good—without intimidation.Key Takeaways:It's Never Too Late: Michael's story about Joan Campbell, who began exercising at 59 and was still swimming into her 90s, is proof that transformation is possible at any age.Ditch the Comparison Game: The most important shift is to listen to your own body, stop comparing yourself to others, and build your unique path to fitness.Functional Fitness Is the Goal: We discuss why being able to move well in daily life—not just in the gym—matters so much as we age.Strength Training Matters: Especially for women, building muscle is critical for balance, metabolism, and fall prevention, but getting started doesn't have to be overwhelming.Start Simple, Start Small: You don't need fancy equipment or a gym membership—Michael gives great examples of calisthenics, resistance bands, and walking.Mindset Makes the Difference: Embracing aging, letting go of fear and negative self-talk, and celebrating small wins can transform how you approach fitness.Move More, Sit Less: Michael's motto, “Movement is life,” underlines how important it is to simply keep moving, stretch, and keep blood flowing—even just a few times a week.Ready to Take the First Step?Michael's advice is to pick one simple thing you can do today—whether it's a short walk, a few chair exercises, or writing down a small goal. Progress, not perfection, is what counts!If you found this episode motivating, please subscribe, rate, and leave us a review.

On Tuesday, Canadian airlines began to resume operations in Puerto Vallarta and Guadalajara. They had been suspended days earlier after the Mexican army killed El Mencho, the leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, leading to a wave of violence across Jalisco and elsewhere in Mexico. Residents of Puerto Vallarta, the popular tourist destination, and Guadalajara, Mexico's second-largest city, were told to shelter in place. Many Canadian tourists found themselves stranded. David Agren is a freelance journalist covering Latin America. He joins The Decibel to talk about how cartels operate in Mexico, how the government has dealt with them in the past, and how pressure from the Trump administration is ramping up the stakes for the Mexican government to crack down on cartels.

Are we governing for the moment? Or reacting to it?This week on Balance of Power, Annalise Klingbeil, Leah Ward and Shannon Phillips break down three political pressure points, and what they reveal about leadership in high-stakes moments.First: The fallout from the Tumbler Ridge tragedy in B.C. After reporting revealed OpenAI had flagged violent content from the alleged shooter but did not alert authorities, the panel digs into AI regulation, public safety, and the politics of crisis response. How fast can governments realistically move? And when international media drives the story, does that change the pressure on Ottawa?Then: Alberta's referendum fight. With multiple groups organizing against separatism, and others pushing citizen initiatives of their own, is decentralized activism a strength or a liability? What does effective organizing actually look like before the writ drops?Plus: a new segment, The Opinionati. When progressive columnists publicly question Naheed Nenshi's leadership, what happens inside caucus? Is this a real warning sign — or just the hyper-engaged political class talking to itself? And if there is a pivot coming, what would it look like?AI, organizing, narrative control, and a reminder that sometimes the most strategic move is to touch grass and calm down.Welcome to Balance of Power.

Dr. Ross Greene's work has profoundly shaped how so many of us think about kids' behavior and what they actually need from the adults in their lives, so I'm thrilled to welcome him back to the show to talk about his brand new book, The Kids Who Aren't Okay: The Urgent Case for Reimagining Support, Belonging, and Hope in Schools. Together, we explore the urgent need to reimagine how we support children in schools, especially as mental health concerns continue to rise. We dig into the importance of recognizing developmental variability, why meeting kids where they are is non-negotiable, and how current behavior-focused systems miss the real problems underneath. Ross also highlights the role parents and caregivers can play in advocating for meaningful change. About Dr. Ross Greene  Ross W. Greene, Ph.D., is a clinical psychologist and the originator of the innovative, evidence-based approach called Collaborative & Proactive Solutions (CPS), as described in his influential books The Explosive Child, Lost at School, Lost & Found, and Raising Human Beings. He also developed and executive produced the award-winning documentary film The Kids We Lose, released in 2018. Dr. Greene was on the faculty at Harvard Medical School for over 20 years, and is now founding director of the non-profit Lives in the Balance. He is also currently adjunct Professor in the Department of Psychology at Virginia Tech and adjunct Professor in the Faculty of Science at the University of Technology in Sydney, Australia. Dr. Greene has worked with several thousand kids with concerning behaviors and their caregivers, and he and his colleagues have overseen implementation and evaluation of the CPS model in countless schools, inpatient psychiatric units, and residential and juvenile detention facilities, with dramatic effect: significant reductions in recidivism, discipline referrals, detentions, suspensions, and use of restraint and seclusion. Dr.Greene lectures throughout the world and lives in Freeport, Maine. Things you'll learn from this episode  How kids today are facing unprecedented challenges that require new ways of thinking and responding Why developmental variability matters and why every child needs support tailored to their unique profile How schools can create more supportive ecosystems by using proactive rather than reactive approaches Why behavior is often a late signal of unmet expectations, not the problem itself How managing expectations and understanding root causes can reduce concerning behaviors Why parents' advocacy and the Collaborative & Proactive Solutions model can transform how children are supported in education Resources mentioned The Kids Who Aren't Okay: The Urgent Case for Reimagining Support, Belonging, and Hope in Schools by Dr. Ross Greene Never Too Early: CPS with Young Kids (documentary) The Explosive Child: A New Approach for Understanding and Parenting Easily Frustrated, Chronically Inflexible Children by Dr. Ross Greene Lives in the Balance (Dr. Greene's website) The B Team (Facebook group) Lost at School: Why Our Kids With Behavioral Challenges are Falling Through the Cracks and How We Can Help Them by Dr. Ross Greene Raising Human Beings: Creating a Collaborative Partnership with Your Child by Dr. Ross Greene Lost and Found: Helping Behaviorally Challenge Students (and While You're At It, All the Others by Dr. Ross Greene The Kids We Lose (documentary) How to Parent Angry and Explosive Children, with Dr. Ross Greene (Tilt Parenting podcast) Ken Wilbur Learn more about your ad choices.

Today, we are tackling the natural tension between the desire to make more money—getting a raise, finding financial stability—and the desire to have meaningful, purpose-driven work. We are diving into a fantastic listener question from Abdul, a front-end engineer with 10 years of experience who has hit a salary ceiling. He is trying to figure out how to pivot into higher-paying domains like backend or AI without making a risky leap that forces him to start over at the bottom rung.

Defense Set the Tone Across the NFL Michael Grey welcomed Kevin Kugler for one last look at the 2025-26 NFL season. The Detroit Lions Podcast audience got a simple theme. Defense carried the year. Teams with great defensive play stayed in the mix. Seattle did it. Houston did it. Denver did it. Cleveland had a good defense but lacked answers elsewhere. The lesson was clear. Pair a good defense with at least a serviceable offense and you can go a long way. Seattle's Surprise and the Sam Darnold Question Seattle opened with questions everywhere. How good would the defense be? How good would the coaching staff be? Could Sam Darnold hold up? They found answers. The defense led. The offense stayed steady. Darnold avoided the meltdown many expected. Even late, including the Super Bowl, he did not have that three interception game. It was not flashy. It was solid. That was enough. Limits Exposed: Houston, Denver, Cleveland Houston rode defense while searching for consistent quarterback play from CJ Stroud. The running game never really arrived. Still, Houston reached the divisional round because the defense was that good. Denver showed the other side. When Bo Nix went down, the margin vanished. Even a strong defense has limits when the offense dries up. Cleveland offered a final reminder. A pretty good defense, by itself, is not a plan. You need something to go with it. Copycat Season, Combine Clock This is a copycat league. Teams will try to become the next Seattle. Good luck. Finding another Nick Emmanwori will be hard. Replicating what Mike McDonald did with the Wolverines and in Baltimore will be harder. The search will expand to the transaction wire. Who is the next Sam Darnold? Who is the next Daniel Jones before injury? Veterans will get long looks. The combine is underway. The draft is coming fast. Balance is the goal. Lions fans know the assignment. Build a roster that marries reliable offense with a defense that can win field position and save possessions. That is the blueprint that traveled, week after week, across a long season in the NFL. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPUL186C-ek #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #seattleseahawks #samdarnold #houstontexans #denverdefense #clevelandbrowns #cjstroud #runninggame #divisionalround #copycatleague #mikemcdonald #baltimore #bonix #danieljones #combine #draft Learn more about your ad choices.

Your brand should be working for you, not exhausting you. In this episode, we break down the difference between a brand that functions as a true asset and one that quietly becomes a liability. I'm diving into positioning, narrative, and why visibility without strategy can actually slow your growth instead of accelerate it. If you feel like you're constantly creating, constantly showing up, and still not seeing momentum, this conversation will help you understand why. We'll unpack how to shift from effort driven marketing to leverage driven branding so your content builds authority, your message compounds over time, and your brand starts carrying weight in your industry instead of just making noise.Business audit: https://forms.gle/dWKUCJcaJMFP5jHe8PLR Library: https://bit.ly/GoalDiggerPLRJoin The Vault & Get Instant Access to 75+ Courses, Monthly Zoom Sessions, Curated Curriculum to fit your biz needs, New Courses add Each Month, and so much more!https://bit.ly/TheOfficialVault Grab your FREE copy of my book, ‘Boss It Up Babe!'https://bit.ly/BOSSItUpBabeBookHost Bio:Kimberly Olson is a self-made multi-millionaire and the creator of The Goal Digger Girl, where she serves female entrepreneurs by teaching them simple systems and online strategies in sales and marketing.
