In the second part of our conversation with Juliana DeWillems - Certified Dog Behavior Consultant, faculty member at the Karen Pryor Academy, and author of Manage It! - we dive headfirst into a topic often overlooked in our industry: management. Juliana unpacks why management is more than just a stopgap solution and how it can serve as a powerful, proactive, and compassionate tool for behavior change. Drawing from the content of her book and years of hands-on experience, Juliana walks us through how antecedent arrangement, environmental adjustments, and unmet needs shape the behaviors we see - and how thoughtful management can help create real change for animals and their guardians. Throughout this episode, we explore: ✅ What “management” really means - and how to define it across different audiences ✅ The relationship between antecedents, behavior, and long-term success ✅ Why management is not “just a band-aid,” but often the most ethical, effective choice ✅ Practical talking points for trainers when advocating for management strategies with clients ✅ How embracing simplicity and going “back to basics” can clear the fog and enhance outcomes Whether you're brand new to training or a seasoned professional, Juliana's thoughtful insights offer a refreshing look at how sometimes the simplest strategies are the most impactful. This episode reminds us that behavior is always happening - and it's our job to make the environment work for everyone involved.

Devora shares her unconventional journey from storytelling to strategy and offers a fresh lens on consumer behavior, loyalty, and the importance of continuous human insights. Drawing on decades of experience helping top brands like Google and Snapchat, Devora explains why fewer than 5% of shoppers follow a linear path to purchase and why loyalty is no longer a given. She introduces a behavioral segmentation model—including loyalists, defectors, ambivalents, and impulse buyers—and explores how brands can tailor experiences for each type. Plus, we unpack the problem with “brand narcissism” in research and why brands must prioritize relevance over vanity metrics. What you'll learn in this episode: Why shoppers often start from scratch with every buying decision—and what that means for loyalty programs The four shopper mindsets and how to design experiences for each How real-time insights and tools like video feedback are transforming market research Why most brand trackers fail to deliver meaningful insight The power of storytelling in research and decision-making Where AI fits in—and where human feedback still reigns supreme Resources & Links: Alter Agents (https://alteragents.com/) Devora Rogers on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/devorarogers/) Bobby Meixner on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/bmeixner/) Nathan on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/nathanisaacs/) Learn more about Insights Unlocked: https://www.usertesting.com/podcast

Send us a textThe genetics of sleep duration and sleep timing.Episode Summary: Dr. Ying-Hui Fu discusses her research on the genetics of sleep, focusing on natural short sleepers who thrive on 4-6 hours of sleep and the heritability of sleep traits like duration and timing. She explores how sleep efficiency, rather than just duration, may explain why some need less sleep without health deficits, and delves into the molecular and circadian mechanisms regulating sleep. About the guest: Ying-Hui Fu, PhD is a neuroscientist and professor at UCSF, where her lab studies the genetics of human sleep behaviors, particularly sleep duration and schedule.Discussion Points:Sleep Traits Are Genetic: Sleep duration (how long you sleep) and sleep schedule (when you sleep) are partially heritable, with most people needing 7-9 hours, while rare natural short sleepers thrive on 4-6 hours.Natural Short Sleepers: These individuals fall asleep quickly, have high sleep efficiency, and live healthy, active lives without deficits, possibly due to faster toxin clearance and repair during sleep.Sleep Efficiency Matters: Short sleepers may complete restorative sleep processes (e.g., clearing toxins, repairing damage) more efficiently, allowing them to need less sleep.Circadian & Entrainment Pathways: Sleep timing is regulated by a molecular clock and environmental cues like light, with mutations in entrainment pathways causing extreme schedules (e.g., early bedtime or night owl tendencies).Modern Lifestyle Harms Sleep: Stimuli like blue light and tense media disrupt sleep patterns, leading to widespread sleep deprivation and health risks.Shift Work Risks: Shift workers face higher risks of diseases like cancer and neurodegeneration due to disrupted sleep cycles, though genetic background influences susceptibility.Finding Your Sleep Rhythm: A two-week vacation without stimulants or artificial light can help determine your natural sleep schedule and duration.Sleep's Health Impact: Poor sleep is a major factor in aging and diseases like Alzheimer's, making it as critical as diet and exercise for health.Related episode:M&M 237: Circadian Biology: Genetics, Behavior, Metabolism, Light, OxygenSupport the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, and more at the M&M Substack Affiliates: KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + potassium, calcium & magnesium, formulated with kidney health in mind.

In Episode 224, Dr. Chris Fuzie joins Darrin for a fascinating conversation on behavior-based leadership and the concept of “liminal space”—the space where individuals lead and follow simultaneously. Drawing from his 28 years in law enforcement and extensive leadership consulting experience, Chris breaks down how leadership is not a position but a behavior, and how great leaders also embrace the role of the follower. This episode explores what gets in the way of effective leadership, why behavior matters more than titles, and how reshaping the leadership-followership dynamic is the next evolution in the field.Guest Bio: Dr. Chris Fuzie is the owner of CMF Leadership Consulting and currently serves as the Business/HR Manager for a District Attorney's office in California. A Leaderologist II and President of the National Leaderology Association, Chris holds a Doctor of Education (Ed.D.), M.A., and B.A. in Organizational Leadership, with graduate certificates in Human Resources and Criminal Justice Education.Since 2010, he has developed and delivered leadership training for public, private, profit, and non-profit organizations. He is a graduate of the FBI National Academy and a former national instructor for the International Association of Chiefs of Police and California P.O.S.T. Courses. Chris is the author of Because Why... Understanding Behavior in Exigencies, S.C.O.R.E. Performance Counseling: Save the Relationship, Change the Behavior, and his latest book, Liminal Space: Reshaping Leadership and Followership.Chris is honorably retired from the Modesto Police Department after 28 years of service, having led teams including the Homicide Team, Hostage Negotiations Team, Street-Level Drug Team, School Police Officer Team, and the Traffic Motor Unit.Dr. Fuzie on Social Media: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-chris-fuzie-ed-d-m-a-ol-vl2-37587934/https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100090255232861https://www.facebook.com/chris.fuzie/https://x.com/CMFLeadershipWEBSITE:https://www.cmfleadership.com/https://www.scoreperformancecounseling.com/

Manhattan prosecutors in New York played a troubling role in allowing Jeffrey Epstein's sexual abuse to continue largely uninterrupted. As journalist Jane Coaston detailed, a Manhattan assistant district attorney even petitioned to classify Epstein as a low-risk sex offender—opting to call for the most lenient category possible under the law. This decision had consequences: Epstein never registered in person with the NYPD as required, effectively sidestepping the mandatory check-ins every 90 days—even though a judge explicitly stated this would be a condition of his registration.Meanwhile, New York City authorities seemingly looked the other way. Epstein failed to report his address and skipped the mandatory check-ins for eight years, yet no enforcement actions were taken. In essence, local prosecutors and police enabled his pattern of offending to persist unchecked. By systematically failing to enforce New York's own sex-offender regulations, the state protected Epstein—rather than his victims—allowing him to evade accountability and continue preying on vulnerable girls.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Jeffrey Epstein: the state of New York protected Epstein — not his victims | VoxBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Welcome special guests Dr. Sara Mastellar, Associate Professor at The Ohio State University ATI and Dr. Elizabeth Share, 4-H Program Specialist at The Ohio State University! If you've ever seen horses "guarding" hay nets or feed sources, or wondering how best to manage feeding time when horses are fed in groups, tune in for some helpful information. I was fortunate enough to be a collaborator on studies run by Dr.'s Mastellar and Share investigating the effect of meal frequency on horse behavior, and the data was presented at the recent Equine Science Society Symposium in June, 2025. These researchers were gracious enough to take some time to explain how they conducted the study and why, and the all-important results and insights gained from the research. The information learned is useful in the everyday management of horses, especially if you have more than one living in a common space. Tune in for an enjoyable conversation about how real scientific research leads to practical horse management guidelines from those who love horses!Link to the study abstracts:--https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jevs.2025.105462Additional studies run concurrently by this group:--https://doi.org/10.1093/jas/skae102.411--https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jevs.2025.105522--Dr. Mastellar's Profile: https://ati.osu.edu/people/sara-l-mastellar-phdDr. Share's Profile: https://ansci.osu.edu/our-people/elizabeth-share-0Link to the Equine Science Society:

Don is joined by Mike DeJoseph from Vanguard to unpack the meaning and real-world impact of Advisor's Alpha—Vanguard's research showing how good financial advisors can add up to 3% annually in net value to client portfolios. They break down the origins of the concept (internally coined back in 2001), clarify what alpha actually means, and dig into where that added value comes from: behavioral coaching, tax-efficient strategies, lower costs, smarter withdrawal planning, and disciplined asset allocation. Mike emphasizes that unlike investment alpha, which is a zero-sum game, advisor alpha is a positive-sum benefit rooted in planning and emotional guidance. They challenge misleading marketing from high-fee brokers, expose the damage of poor advisor behavior, and highlight what separates a “good” advisor from a truly great one—namely, those who align clients' values with their money. The conversation ends with a forward look at AI's role in advice: not replacing advisors, but augmenting their ability to listen, guide, and support clients like financial therapists.  0:04 Don introduces rare guest: Mike DeJoseph of Vanguard 0:35 The origin of Vanguard's Advisor's Alpha paper 1:27 What is alpha?

Was Bryan Kohberger 'Proud' To Admit His Guilt In Court, Ret FBI Behavior Chief Breaks It Down In one of the most chilling moments in recent courtroom history, Bryan Kohberger stood up and calmly pleaded guilty to the brutal murders that shocked the nation. But was he actually proud to admit what he'd done? Retired FBI Behavioral Chief Robin Dreeke joins us to dissect the disturbing nuances of Kohberger's courtroom demeanor. Known for his expert analyses on criminal behavior and body language, Dreeke explores subtle signals of arrogance, self-satisfaction, or defiance in Kohberger's admission, shedding light on what may have been occurring inside the convicted killer's mind during this crucial moment. Dreeke leverages his years of experience decoding the minds of some of the most dangerous criminals in the country, discussing how Kohberger's educational background in criminology and criminal justice may have influenced his attitude toward the plea. Was this calmness indicative of someone believing he was still in control, or a final act of twisted defiance and superiority? Throughout the conversation, we delve into Kohberger's psychological profile—his narcissism, the need for control, and the unsettling possibility of pride in his horrific actions. Dreeke also provides insights into how this behavior will influence his life behind bars and what this could signal about his mental state moving forward. This detailed breakdown of Kohberger's courtroom conduct helps us understand not only his disturbing behavior but also offers critical lessons for recognizing signs of dangerous narcissism and arrogance in other offenders.

Was Bryan Kohberger 'Proud' To Admit His Guilt In Court, Ret FBI Behavior Chief Breaks It Down In one of the most chilling moments in recent courtroom history, Bryan Kohberger stood up and calmly pleaded guilty to the brutal murders that shocked the nation. But was he actually proud to admit what he'd done? Retired FBI Behavioral Chief Robin Dreeke joins us to dissect the disturbing nuances of Kohberger's courtroom demeanor. Known for his expert analyses on criminal behavior and body language, Dreeke explores subtle signals of arrogance, self-satisfaction, or defiance in Kohberger's admission, shedding light on what may have been occurring inside the convicted killer's mind during this crucial moment. Dreeke leverages his years of experience decoding the minds of some of the most dangerous criminals in the country, discussing how Kohberger's educational background in criminology and criminal justice may have influenced his attitude toward the plea. Was this calmness indicative of someone believing he was still in control, or a final act of twisted defiance and superiority? Throughout the conversation, we delve into Kohberger's psychological profile—his narcissism, the need for control, and the unsettling possibility of pride in his horrific actions. Dreeke also provides insights into how this behavior will influence his life behind bars and what this could signal about his mental state moving forward. This detailed breakdown of Kohberger's courtroom conduct helps us understand not only his disturbing behavior but also offers critical lessons for recognizing signs of dangerous narcissism and arrogance in other offenders. Prepare for a deep dive into criminal psychology with one of the FBI's most seasoned behavioral analysts.

Ret. FBI Behavior Chief Breaks Down The Cops & Culture That Groomed Sandra Birchmore Description: Sandra Birchmore wasn't just failed by a few bad officers—she was failed by an entire culture. At 23, Sandra was found dead—alone and pregnant. What the public was told: suicide. What federal prosecutors now allege: murder, cover-up, and years of grooming at the hands of a trusted law enforcement officer. Matthew Farwell, the former Stoughton cop now indicted for Sandra's death, first met her when she was just 13. He was her mentor in the department's Explorer program. But behind that title was a predator, and behind him? A department that protected itself at every turn. In this episode, we sit down with Robin Dreeke, the former Chief of the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Program, to dissect how this could happen—and why no one stopped it. Robin walks us through the behavioral red flags, the abuse of institutional structure, and the critical leadership failures that enabled this kind of manipulation to thrive unchecked. We also explore why no one else has been charged—despite multiple officers having ties to Sandra—and what it says about the “silent exits” we've seen from others in the department. Robin reveals how abusers test boundaries through secrecy, how grooming flourishes in programs like Explorers, and why a lack of oversight can be just as dangerous as overt misconduct. This isn't just about Matthew Farwell. It's about every department that refuses to see what's right in front of them. Sandra Birchmore's case is a warning—and Robin Dreeke is here to tell us what happens when no one listens. #SandraBirchmore #RobinDreeke #FBIBehavioralAnalysis #PoliceGrooming #InstitutionalFailure #HiddenKillersPodcast #TonyBrueski #ExplorerProgram #LawEnforcementAccountability #PredatorsInPower Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?  Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspod Instagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspod X Twitter https://x.com/tonybpod Listen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872

Sometimes, the system isn't broken—it's just bottlenecked.In this episode, we're continuing our series on translating business strategies into personal growth tools by looking at bottlenecks: those hidden chokepoints where progress stalls and good intentions quietly fall apart.You'll learn how to spot these sneaky sources of friction, and explore simple ways to loosen them—so your habits feel easier, not harder, to follow through on.Key TakeawaysBottlenecks aren't failures—they're leverage points. Identifying them gives you a clearer sense of where to focus your attention for the biggest impact.Look for where things consistently stall—not where you 'fail.'  Troubleshooting your routines can be more productive than judging them.Delegate when you can—share the load.  You don't have to be the sole operator of your entire life.Automate where possible—to reduce friction and decision fatigue.  If it can be made simpler or more predictable, that's often the difference between doing it and skipping it.Simplify or eliminate what's no longer serving you.  A habit doesn't have to be perfect to be worth doing.

Manhattan prosecutors in New York played a troubling role in allowing Jeffrey Epstein's sexual abuse to continue largely uninterrupted. As journalist Jane Coaston detailed, a Manhattan assistant district attorney even petitioned to classify Epstein as a low-risk sex offender—opting to call for the most lenient category possible under the law. This decision had consequences: Epstein never registered in person with the NYPD as required, effectively sidestepping the mandatory check-ins every 90 days—even though a judge explicitly stated this would be a condition of his registration.Meanwhile, New York City authorities seemingly looked the other way. Epstein failed to report his address and skipped the mandatory check-ins for eight years, yet no enforcement actions were taken. In essence, local prosecutors and police enabled his pattern of offending to persist unchecked. By systematically failing to enforce New York's own sex-offender regulations, the state protected Epstein—rather than his victims—allowing him to evade accountability and continue preying on vulnerable girls.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Jeffrey Epstein: the state of New York protected Epstein — not his victims | Vox

              In this episode of The Pet Pig Podcast, titled “Piggy Playlists: How Music Influences Pig Behavior,” host Autumn explores the surprising connection between music and pig behavior. Drawing from her own experiences at Autumn Acres Mini Pet Pigs, Autumn shares how classical music helps calm pigs during labor and reduces anxiety in weaning piglets—often leading to relaxed, curious, and even playful behavior.             She dives into scientific research that supports these observations:               -A 2022 study in Nature found that pigs respond emotionally to music. Calming, harmonious music encouraged positive behaviors like playfulness, while dissonant sounds triggered fear and unease.               -A 2024 study revealed that music-based enrichment reduced stress in pigs, lowering cortisol and salivary alpha amylase levels and decreasing aggression.             Autumn offers practical advice for pig owners:                 -Choose harmonious, calming music (classical is a great starting point)                 -Keep the volume low, as pigs have sensitive hearing.                 -Observe and adjust based on your pig's reactions.                 -Use music consistently to create positive associations.              She encourages listeners to experiment with music in their pigs' environments and share their experiences via Instagram. Autumn emphasizes that music isn't just enjoyable for humans—it's a powerful tool to enhance pig welfare and emotional health.             A thoughtful piggy playlist can improve your pig's mood, reduce stress, and create a more peaceful environment—proving that music truly speaks to all species.

In this episode, Lauren explores the importance of adult emotional regulation when navigating children's challenging behaviors. She emphasizes that outbursts aren't personal—they're rooted in a dysregulated nervous system. By staying calm and composed, adults can create a sense of safety that allows children to begin co-regulating. Lauren shares practical strategies like pausing before responding, reframing the moment, and using grounding techniques to manage your own emotional state. She reminds us that regulation doesn't mean you aren't frustrated—it means choosing not to let that frustration lead. Resources:Dr. Wood's WebsiteOther related resources from Five Ives: Blog Post: Why Traditional Employee Wellness Programs Fail (And What Works Instead)Survive Mode: Recognizing When Your Organization is in CrisisWhat are the Five Ives?Podcast:Chaos to ConnectionPart 2: Behavior isn't the ProblemPart 1: Behavior isn't the ProblemHive- The Last Stage of the Five IvesThrive- The Fourth Stage of the Five IvesStrive- The Third Stage of the Five IvesRevive- The Second Stage of the Five IvesSurvive- The First Stage of the Five IvesWhat are the Five Ives?A Five Category Regulation Framework - Five Ives!Using Our 5-Category Regulation Framework in the WorkplaceImpacting Organizational Culture: Explaining the First 2 PsImpacting Organization Culture: Explaining the Second 2 PsOur Online Programs: Behavior BreakthroughPolicing Under PressureBoard Governance TrainingUniversity of Pennsylvania Behavior Breakthrough Accredited CourseSubscribe to our mailing list and find out more about Stress, Trauma, Behavior and the Brain!Check out our Facebook Group – Five Ives!Five Ives Website websiteThe Behavior Hub blogIf you're looking for support as you grow your organization's capacity for caring for staff and the community, we would love to be part of that journey. Schedule a free discovery call and let us be your guideAs an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.

There are six primary behavior motivators for horses: 1) Food 2) Water 3) Safety 4) Comfort 5) Companionship 6) Reproduction To understand why a horse does something (good, bad, or indifferent), it is important to first think of the behavior as belonging to one of these six categories. When you identify which of the six motivators are influencing your horse in any given moment, it becomes much, much easier to meet their needs. And, when you meet their needs, they become much more cooperative. And yes, we want cooperation, not control. Listen in!
