Podcasts about better outcomes

Renters are facing record-low vacancy rates, while property managers are under growing pressure as workloads and expectations intensify. Against this backdrop, tenant education is emerging as a potential reset for how the industry supports long-term stability, benefiting both renters and property managers alike. In this episode of the REB Podcast, host Liam Garman speaks with Paul Tommasini, chief executive officer of inCommunity and the Tenancy Skills Institute, about how structured education pathways for tenants could deliver better outcomes across the rental ecosystem – covering budgeting, maintenance and responsibilities. The discussion explores how stable tenancies are becoming increasingly critical in a tight rental market, and how education-led programs are helping tenants build the skills needed to sustain long-term rental relationships while easing pressure on property managers. Tommasini shares how the Tenancy Skills Institute has evolved from supporting young people experiencing homelessness into a broader national initiative, with more than 27,000 participants completing its tenancy education programs. The conversation also examines how early intervention tools like PM Assist are helping property managers identify issues sooner, connect tenants with support services, and reduce the likelihood of disputes escalating to the tribunal. Finally, the discussion challenges common misconceptions around tenancy breakdowns, highlighting the complex mix of financial stress, communication issues and knowledge gaps that often sit beneath rental disputes.

America Out Loud PULSE with Dr. Angelina Farella – Whether you're working for a company, running your own business, raising a family, or planning for retirement, healthcare costs seem to touch every part of our lives. Premiums continue to rise, deductibles are often higher than we'd like, and many people wonder whether they can truly afford the care they need...

Ambulatory Surgical Centers (ASCs) have been around in concept for the past fifty years, but their recent explosion has caught the attention of healthcare systems and, frankly, patients. Why? Today's guest, Adnan Qureshi, is a Managing Director with the Mergers and Acquisitions practice at Kaufman Hall. He provides strategic advisory services for healthcare providers and investors around the merger or acquisition of ASCs. The benefit he's seen in partnership with his clients perhaps explains the answer to this question. The “DNA”, as Adnan puts it, of the ASC is rooted in independent physicians who, as an extension of their practice, saw the benefit of doing lower acuity surgeries in an outpatient setting. As pain management and technology improved over time, the use case also evolved to the point where there are now few specialty areas where uncomplicated surgeries cannot be performed in an ASC. Without the overhead and operating costs of a hospital, ASCs allow for far more transparent pricing, lower costs, greater efficiency, and often better outcomes, all driving towards higher patient satisfaction. And that's a win we should all be paying attention to. Adnan Qureshi has over fifteen years of healthcare transaction experience. Prior to joining Kaufman Hall, he was a Director of Development at SCA Health, a subsidiary of Optum/UnitedHealth Group. In that role, Mr. Qureshi led market entry strategy across several geographies, and sourced, structured, and executed ambulatory surgery center acquisitions.

For many women, trying to get a clear answer to their health problems can be challenging, if not downright frustrating. But it doesn't have to be this way. Joining us today is Priyanka Jain, co-founder and CEO of Evvy, a women's health technology company focused on closing the gender health gap by decoding the vaginal microbiome. In this conversation, Priyanka shares how her own experiences with unanswered symptoms led her to question the limits of traditional testing and explore overlooked areas of female biology. She explains the role of the vaginal microbiome in protecting reproductive health, how imbalances can contribute to inflammation and fertility challenges, and why many conditions are still misdiagnosed or missed entirely. They also discuss how Evvy's at-home testing works, what makes it more comprehensive than standard approaches, and where it can support patients across the fertility journey, from early planning to IVF. Tune in for an informative and empowering conversation about an often-overlooked factor in women's health! 

Velocity can help a team plan, but it creates problems when leaders use it to judge performance. In this episode, Brian Milner and Scott Dunn explain why that shift happens so often and what leaders should pay attention to instead.   Overview Velocity is one of the most misunderstood metrics in Agile. Used well, it helps a team forecast and make planning decisions. Used poorly, it becomes a productivity score that encourages inflated estimates, unhealthy comparisons, and a focus on output rather than value. In this episode, Brian and Scott discuss why leaders often reach for velocity, why it gives them the wrong signal, and how teams can reconnect measurement to outcomes, learning, and business impact. They also explore how AI is making this issue more urgent by increasing delivery speed while putting even more pressure on leaders to ask whether teams are building the right things.   References and resources mentioned in the show: Scott Dunn #35: Metrics with Lance Dacy Rethink the Refinement Session: Less Time, Better Outcomes by Mike Cohn The Cost of Change Curve Is Outdated by Mike Cohn Subscribe to the Agile Mentors Podcast    Want to get involved?

In this episode of the Treating Together podcast, host Pallav Mehta, MD, medical oncologist at MD Anderson Cancer Center at Cooper University Health Care and medical director of Reimagine Care, speaks with E. Anders (Andy) Kolb, MD, president and chief executive officer of Blood Cancer United (formerly The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society; LLS). Together, they unpack the major forces shaping change in pediatric hematologic malignancies—from biology to treatment/care delivery and advocacy—and how they converge to rapidly translate research into practice.Key Discussion PointsThe conversation explores the momentum in pediatric blood cancer research and treatment, highlighting how genomics, clinical trials, and large-scale initiatives are reshaping care. Highlights include: Distinct Biology Driving Different Treatment Needs: Advances in genomic profiling reveal that pediatric leukemias are biologically distinct from adult disease, with more structural mutations (eg, translocations) rather than targetable point mutations—limiting applicability of many adult therapies. Barriers to Progress in Pediatric Myeloid Malignancies: Despite advances, progress in pediatric myeloid malignancies lags behind due to fewer actionable targets and limited drug development incentives. Clinical Trials as the Backbone of Care: Unlike adult oncology, trial participation is deeply embedded in pediatric care, with high enrollment rates driven by limited approved therapies, strong cooperative group infrastructure, and family motivation. Measuring Impact Beyond Survival: Beyond traditional end points like overall survival, the concept of life years saved highlights the long-term impact of curing children and informs research prioritization. Survivorship as a Research Driver: Long-term treatment effects (eg, infertility, organ damage) shape modern trial design, with increasing efforts to reduce toxicity and replace chemotherapy with targeted or immune-based therapies. Global Efforts Accelerating Progress: Initiatives like Blood Cancer United's Dare to Dream are advancing research, access, and advocacy for high-risk pediatric patients.

Only about 20% of employees strongly agree that their performance is managed in a way that motivates them to do outstanding work. That is the finding from Gallup's research on performance development systems and it tells you something important about the opportunity sitting inside every firm right now. In this episode of Building the Billion Dollar Business, financial advisor coach Ray Sclafani makes the case that the quality and consistency of feedback inside your organization are directly tied to engagement, and engagement is directly tied to performance. Better performance reviews do not just evaluate people. They develop them. And when done well, they drive better outcomes for everyone on the team and every client they serve.What you will learn in this episodeWhy only 20% of employees feel their performance is managed in a way that motivates outstanding workWhy the purpose of a performance review matters as much as the process and how high performing firms reframe reviews as learning conversations rather than evaluation exercisesWhat curiosity-driven feedback looks like in practice and why it changes the quality of the conversation for both the leader and the team memberThe 48-hour rule: why setting your reviews aside before sharing them significantly improves the quality of feedback deliveredHow total team leadership, where everyone plays a role as leader, changes the responsibility both leaders and team members carry into the review processKey insight from this episodePerformance reviews when approached thoughtfully are not about scoring people or checking a box. They are about creating alignment, strengthening accountability, and developing the capabilities of people within the firm. Over time this compounds into better performance, stronger relationships, and more consistent outcomes for clients.Coaching questions for reflectionHow could you approach your next performance review cycle in a way that creates greater clarity about your role, your priorities, and your contribution to the firm's success?What would change in your performance over the next 90 days if you actively sought out feedback and applied what you learned with intention?How might cultivating curiosity in both giving and receiving feedback improve the quality of your relationships and the outcomes your firm produces?What specific actions will you take before your next review cycle to prepare thoughtfully, contribute meaningfully, and help elevate the performance of those around you?Building the Billion Dollar Business is hosted by Ray Sclafani, founder and CEO of ClientWise, the financial services industry's leading executive coaching and team development firm for elite advisors and wealth management teams.Find Ray and the ClientWise Team on the ClientWise website or LinkedIn | Twitter | Instagram | Facebook | YouTube

While agtech often celebrates breakthrough technologies that can slash costs for farmers, what if the real value of innovation lies somewhere else entirely? In this episode, Mark Trzaskoma joins Dr Madeline Mitchell to explore what agtech adoption actually looks like on the ground at Battunga Orchards, a 180-hectare orchard operating across three sites in Victoria. From mechanised harvest platforms to canopy redesign and data collection tools, each decision at Battunga is guided by a “test, measure, learn” approach, focused on yield, quality, and long-term performance rather than short-term efficiency gains. Mark also shares a cautionary insight: optimizing for cost can actually reduce productivity. His experience of hitting cost targets in pruning, only to see production decline, highlights a broader challenge in agriculture: efficiency is not the same as effectiveness. Mark and Maddie discuss: Why agtech often delivers value through better outcomes, not lower costs. Why cost-cutting can undermine productivity in biological systems. The realities of working with early-stage, evolving agtech products. Labor constraints and their role in driving automation in horticulture.

The ability to have difficult conversations is one of the most essential skills of an effective leader. Whether addressing performance, navigating conflict, or working through disagreements, the way the conversation begins often determines how it will end. This episode of the Forward Thinking Podcast features FCCS SVP of Marketing and Communications Stephanie Barton and Jeannie Clinnkenbeard, Director and Senior Leadership Consultant at FCCS. Their conversation is centered around the importance of approaching these moments with greater intention and skill. They explore practical ideas that can help turn tense conversations into productive dialogue, and highlight the value of brave conversations for individuals, teams, and organizations.   Episode Insights Include: What to think about before a critical conversation The 60-second gamechanger asks, 'What do I want out of this conversation?' Positive intent focuses on a win-win scenario. Share your intent with the other person to set the right tone.  If you focus only on winning, you will not have much success. Consider how you can learn, solve and grow together.  Defensiveness might result if your intent isn't framed in a mutually positive way.    Next step, share facts After stating your intent, share the facts surrounding the situation.  Separate your perceived stories and emotions from the facts.  You can reduce the temperature in the conversation with your words. Spiraling stories can escalate conflict.    Check the stories you're telling yourself Our stories drive our emotions, so tell them carefully.  The villain story blames the other person.  Question what you are making up to tell the story. Challenge your assumptions about your stories.  Stop MSU- Making Stuff Up- and stick with the facts.    Strategies for constructive engagement The 50/50 approach invites the other person to share their thoughts and concerns.  Ask neutral, open-ended questions.  When emotions are high, it can be hard to engage.  If the other person is shutting down, pause the content and focus on empathy and understanding.  Ask clarifying questions to keep the other person engaged.  Stick with the conversation even if it gets uncomfortable, within reason.    Encouraging difficult conversations in others If you see that a difficult conversation needs to happen between two other people, encourage the first steps.  Volunteer to role-play through the conversation.  The impact of difficult conversations can be critical to a team's success.  The ability to have tough conversations respectfully is a gamechanger.  The person who has the ability to speak up is the most useful person in the room.   This podcast is powered by FCCS.   Resources   Connect with Jeannie Clinnkenbeard – Jeannie Clinnkenbeard   Get in touch – info@fccsconsulting.com   "The more your conversation is focused on a win-win scenario, the more likely the outcome is going to be positive." — Jeannie Clinnkenbeard   "When going into tough conversations, our words don't have to be perfect, they just have to be positive." — Jeannie Clinnkenbeard   "Every human being has the fundamental need to be heard." — Jeannie Clinnkenbeard   "The person who has the ability to speak up is the most useful person in the room." — Jeannie Clinnkenbeard

Currently, he leads Data Potato LLC, focusing on responsible technology and data utilization, while serving on the AI Committee for Access and as a board member of the Anchor Foundation.Episode Summary:In this insightful episode of DSP Talk, host Asheley Blaise delves into the transformative landscape of AI in human services with esteemed guest Doug Golub. The discussion centers around how AI is reshaping the future of the direct support workforce with a strong emphasis on person-centered care and technological innovation. Doug Golub, drawing from his vast experience, shares invaluable insights on the inclusion of Direct Support Professionals (DSPs) in AI dialogues, highlighting the importance of integrating their hands-on experience for developing effective AI tools.With a focus on the potential of AI in enhancing rather than displacing the workforce, Doug outlines practical applications of AI in human services. The conversation reflects on the transformation of administrative and documentation tasks through AI to facilitate more meaningful support relationships. This episode offers a balanced exploration of AI's possibilities, alongside ethical and practical considerations, underscoring the critical role of DSPs in shaping AI advancements.Key Takeaways:The potential of AI lies in its ability to assist, not replace, DSPs by automating documentation and administrative tasks, allowing more time for direct support.DSPs' inclusion in AI development discussions is essential to ensure technology reflects real-world support and avoids biases.Training for DSPs should extend beyond utilizing tools to encompass understanding biases, ethical use, and empowering them to question AI's outputs.AI tools can help identify trends and provide valuable insights, but they must be interpreted and mediated by humans to maintain effective support.Notable Quotes:"If we understand how the software works, we call it software. If we don't understand how it works and we think it's magic, we call it AI." – Doug Golub"The tools that are emerging have to help make it more fulfilling, more opportunity, more robust to be able to make that difference in people's lives." – Doug Golub"These tools are changing the way that we work, they are changing the way that agencies are operating." – Doug Golub"What makes it better is when we actually involve the people that know what they're talking about, which are the frontline staff." – Doug GolubResources:Data Potato LLCThe New York Alliance AI CommunityAnchor FoundationListen to the full episode to dive deeper into a conversation intertwined with innovation and empathy, and to better understand how AI can partner with human expertise to transform the future of human services.

In this episode of The Addicted Mind, host Duane Osterlind sits down with Dr. Judy Rosenberg, founder of the Psychological Healing Center, to dive deep into the psychology of smoking addiction.Dr. Rosenberg shares her journey from the early days of aversion therapy at the Schick Center to developing her transformative "Mind Map" for healing. They move beyond the surface-level habit of nicotine to explore the "hole in the soul"—the childhood wounds and narcissistic injuries that often drive us to "fill" ourselves with substances rather than finding true "fulfillment."Key Highlights & ThemesThe Failure of Aversion Therapy: Why "shocking" people out of a habit often leads to high relapse rates if the underlying psychological cause isn't addressed.The "Hole in the Soul": Identifying the childhood wounds—physical, sexual, verbal abuse, neglect, or narcissistic injury—that create a void we try to fill with cigarettes.Filling vs. Fulfilling: A powerful distinction between using a substance to temporarily plug a hole (the "vampire effect") versus generating internal light and generative health.The Narcissistic Cigarette: How we assign value to an object that drains our health, money, and power, much like a toxic relationship.The Three Smoking Personalities: * The Comfort Smoker: Seeking the attunement and nurturing missed in early childhood.The Control Smoker: Using the cigarette to manage a chaotic or unpredictable environment.The Performance Smoker: Using nicotine to "show up," create, or please others, often rooted in narcissistic wounds.Destination Disgust: How to use the emotion of disgust as a protective mechanism to "unhook" from the addiction and view the substance as the poison it truly is.The Oxygen Trick: Recognizing that the "relief" of a cigarette often comes from the deep breath of the inhale, which the cigarette then "hijacks" and takes credit for.The Mind Map for HealingIdentify childhood wounds and the "cracked lens" of perception.Decode the "poison" of negative core beliefs (e.g., "I don't matter").Recode the psyche into a state of health, power, and self-causality.Guest ResourcesWebsite: Psychological Healing CenterBooks: * Kick It: Stop Smoking and Be the Cause of Better Outcomes for Your LifeBe the Cause: Healing Human DisconnectYouTube: Dr. Judy WTF (What the Freud) – Over 500 episodes on healing from narcissistic abuse and addiction.If you live in California and are looking for counseling or therapy please check out Novus Mindful Life Counseling and Recovery CenterNovusMindfulLife.comWe want to hear from you.

Dr. Roy Perlis, editor-in-chief of JAMA AI and psychiatrist-researcher at Mass General Brigham, joins to explore the evolving intersection of artificial intelligence and healthcare. Drawing on his deep experience and expertise working in neural networks, genetics, and electronic health records, Roy outlines where AI is genuinely delivering — like ambient scribes and clinical decision support — while urging clinicians to stay skeptical, look for clinically meaningful outcomes, and resist the de-skilling that comes with over-reliance on automation. We also discuss mental health stigma among physicians, the promise and peril of AI chatbots in psychiatric care, and the looming psychiatry workforce crisis, leaving listeners with one essential question: will AI actually make things better?

Why do we keep turning to cigarettes, food, gambling, shopping, porn, alcohol, or even our phones when we're hurting? In this raw and eye-opening episode of Dr. Judy WTF (What the Freud / What the Foot), Dr. Judy Rosenberg dives deep into the psychology of addiction and reveals what she calls the “Hole in the Soul”—the emotional wound left by childhood trauma, neglect, abuse, and disconnection that drives us to self-medicate.Using her powerful Mind Map system, Dr. Judy breaks down how early wounds lead to emotional reactions, toxic encodings, chaos, and ultimately the defense mechanisms we call addictions. From smoking and gambling to binge eating and shopping, she explains the difference between filling yourself and truly fulfilling yourself—and why addictions only create temporary relief while deepening long-term pain.Dr. Judy also shares insights from her upcoming book “Kick It: Stop Smoking and Be the Cause of Better Outcomes for Your Life”, including the psychology behind comfort smokers, control smokers, and performance smokers, and why quitting isn't just about willpower—it's about healing the original wound.This episode features powerful listener questions, real-life examples, and an unfiltered look at why even life-threatening diagnoses often aren't enough to stop addiction. If you've ever wondered “Why do I do this to myself?”—this conversation is for you.It's not about shame.It's not about weakness.It's about healing the hole… so you no longer need the filler.

In this episode, host Mardi Winder welcomes Dr. Robin Buckley, Ph.D., an expert in clinical psychology with a specialty in cognitive behavioral methodology and executive coaching. Together, they explore the power of applying clear, practical strategies and goal-setting to both marriage and divorce. Dr. Robin shares insights from her years of experience, reflecting on the transition from traditional therapy, focused on intervention and healing from past wounds, to her current emphasis on proactive coaching that builds toward a meaningful and intentional future.The discussion unpacks the differences between coaching and therapy, noting that coaching helps clients focus on what they can control in the present to create the future they want. Dr. Robin explains how our brains often become stuck in reactive patterns during the stress of divorce, making logical decision-making difficult. She suggests that by engaging the prefrontal cortex, people can step away from the "fight, flight, or freeze" response and approach divorce with clarity and strategic thinking.A central theme of the conversation is the concept of a "mission statement for divorce." Dr. Robin helps clients articulate what they want life to look like after divorce, whether it involves successful co-parenting, remaining friends, or setting firm boundaries for a clean break. Rather than simply aiming to finalize the legal process, couples are encouraged to envision their goals for their lives beyond the separation. This mission statement serves as a guiding compass throughout the process, helping couples navigate conflict and remain focused on respectful outcomes even in tense moments.The episode also touches on changing trends, with more people, especially in younger generations, seeking collaborative and multidisciplinary approaches to divorce. Dr. Robin shares her excitement about these supportive models, which often include financial advisors, therapists, and legal professionals working as a team. In closing, Dr. Robin introduces her new book, Marriage Incorporated, which brings strategic planning and business principles into the realm of relationships, offering readers practical tools to create stronger foundations and improve communication in both marriage and divorce.About the Guest:Dr. Robin Buckley holds a PhD in clinical psychology with specialized training in cognitive behavioral methodology and executive coaching. Through her data-driven, strategic coaching model, she helps individuals, couples, and organizations achieve personal and professional goals. Her expertise has been featured by Entrepreneur, Chief, Nike, and TED.
