In this episode of Tech It To The Limit, hosts Sarah Harper and Elliot Wilson revisit generational myths in digital health and reveal why age isn't the real barrier to adoption. Through their new game, Fact Check Fever, and a deep dive into the Capability-Motivation-Context (CMC) framework, they show how design, usability, and trust matter far more than birth year. From busting stereotypes to exploring how health systems can design with users, not for them, it's a witty, insightful look at the future of inclusive, human-centered innovation.Key TakeawaysGenerational myths don't hold up: Boomers use portals, Gen Z cares about privacy, and every group struggles with clunky design, not just “digital natives.”Design trumps demographics: Adoption isn't about age, it's about usability, accessibility, and human-centered design.Follow the CMC framework: Capability, motivation, and context, not birth year, to predict whether people engage with health tech.Health equity requires intention: Neutral AI does not exist; equity has to be actively built into technology.The biggest unifier isn't age: A diagnosis, condition, or shared health journey brings people together across generations more than labels like Boomer or Gen Z.In this episode:[00:00:13] Welcome & episode introduction[00:00:55] Recap of Mayo Clinic live show[00:02:36] Looking ahead to HLTH: speakers, tracks, and the health tech “fashion week” vibe[00:05:08] Conference tracks & awards00:07:13] Launching Fact Check Fever: busting myths on portals, EHR burnout, Gen Z TikTok habits, and more[00:07:37] Fact Check Fever: generational myths & data[00:19:24] Break for fake sponsor: Patient Portal Plus Plus[00:20:44] Sincere segment: CMC framework for health tech adoption[00:22:24] Deep dive: CMC framework explained[00:31:17] Designing with, not for, users[00:35:31] Break for fake sponsor: Bias Focals[00:37:14] Spicy Nugs: co-host lightning round[00:46:41] Closing thoughts, HLTH call-to-action, and Elliot's health tech haikuResourcesTech It To The Limit PodcastWebsite Apple PodcastSarah HarperLinkedIn -https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarahbethharperElliott WilsonLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthewelliottwilson

Microsoft's Work Trend Index reveals a record 38% moved roles this year

New insights from Microsoft Ireland reveal Ireland's workforce is navigating a period of transformation. The Microsoft Ireland Work Trend Index 2025 is based on a nationally representative survey of 1,000 Irish workers, conducted annually as part of a general population study, ensuring a demographic balance year-on-year. The results show that AI is emerging as a career catalyst, while job turnover hits a record? 38%, according to the respondents who took part in the survey,?while workplace satisfaction trends marginally downward. With AI adoption up 27% year-on-year, 41% of workers say it helps them work smarter. Half (50%) believe AI skills are critically important to remain competitive in the job market, while 54% say having these skills will broaden their job opportunities. Additionally, 40% believe knowing how to use AI at work will help them get promoted faster, and 34% say AI has made them consider other career paths. Yet, this optimism is tempered by uneven access and training gaps, with over half of workers calling for structured or employer-led AI training to help speed adoption. A Workforce in Flux and Under Pressure - Employees call for Balance Despite 57% of workers seeing opportunities for growth within their current roles, Ireland's labour market is in motion. Based on the survey results, turnover has surged from 19% in 2023 to 38% in 2025, positioning Ireland as a market with significant talent volatility. This churn underscores the importance of investing in retention strategies that empower employees to thrive by supporting their well-being, balance, and growth, which in turn help organisations to remain resilient in a rapidly changing workplace. Ireland's workforce trends align with global insights that highlight how emotional strains are compounded by the realities of today's workday, where digital overload and constant interruptions challenge even the most flexible environments. Linking this workforce feedback to Microsoft's global telemetry, a picture emerges showing the modern workday is increasingly distracted. Workers are interrupted every two minutes or 275 times per day, receive 117 emails daily, and spend 57% of meetings in unscheduled sessions. AI Eases Employee Strain - But Wider Access and Training is Required AI offers a practical remedy, helping employees manage their workload, reduce stress, and focus on higher-value tasks. It is increasingly seen as a solution to workplace pressure, with 91% of users in Ireland saying it improves the quality of their work. Additionally, 34% of workers say AI has made them reconsider their career path, highlighting its influence on professional ambition and future career opportunities. However, AI use remains uneven: · Board-level executives: 91% use AI at work · Non-managers: Only 39% use AI at work (versus 66% of managers) · Gender imbalance: 63% of men versus 47% of women use AI at work · Generational usage: 55% of Gen Z (18-24) use AI at work, compared with 62% of younger millennials (25-34), 59% of older millennials (35-44), 47% of Gen X (45-54), and 48% of Boomers (55-64). These disparities raise concerns about who has access to AI tools and benefits from them, and who risks being left behind. Lower engagement with AI could limit opportunities for efficiency and relief from routine tasks, potentially exacerbating stress levels for employees under pressure. It's perhaps no surprise, therefore, that over half (61%) of Irish workers are calling for structured AI training, saying their employer could support adoption by offering more training either in-house or through external providers, and 47% believe they should be given more time to research AI independently. Commenting on the alignment between Irish trends and the broader global perspective, Microsoft Ireland General Manager, Catherine Doyle said: "Ireland is at a turning point. As AI transforms the world of work, Irish employees and employers are navigating rapid change and new opportunities. The me...

CannCon and Ashe in America continue their deep dive into The Fourth Turning by Strauss and Howe, unpacking the seismic cultural shifts of the Awakening era. From the GI Generation's confidence after WWII to the Silent Generation's contradictions and the Boomers' rebellious rise, this discussion draws striking parallels to today's upheavals. They trace how Vietnam, Watergate, civil rights battles, and shifting family dynamics set the stage for generational conflict and cultural realignment, while also exploring how children of the 1960s and 70s were shaped by fractured homes, Hollywood's anti-child narratives, and a society growing hostile to traditional structures. With humor, historical insight, and a sharp eye on how these cycles echo into the present, CannCon and Ashe help listeners see the patterns that repeat, and why understanding them matters now more than ever.

What does it mean to be a truly intergenerational church—and why does it matter more now than ever? In this episode of Next Gen Now, we sit down with Wilson McCoy to explore the heart behind his new book, Imagining All Generations: A Renewed Vision for an Intergenerational Church. Wilson shares practical insight and biblical imagination for how the Church can bridge generational divides and become a community where every age is needed, known, and empowered. Many churches today face worry and concern over their collective future. One tragic consequence is that growing anxiety can turn inward on communities of faith. A subtle distancing and dividing can occur, often happening along generational lines. Us-versus-Them thinking morphs into Old-versus-Young. Instead of a culture of generation to generation, churches are shaped and formed more by a culture of generation versus generation. Imagining All Generations offers a better, more faithful way forward by remembering our identity as the generational people of God. The volume features nineteen authors from around the world, providing fresh theological reflection, innovative practical wisdom, and a unified call for all churches to move into a more intergenerational future. Imagining All Generations Book If you care about the next generation, the future of the Church, or the discipleship of all ages—this conversation is for you. Listen for:         • Why the Church must move beyond age-segregated ministry models         • How generational imagination shapes community and discipleship         • What Gen Z and Boomers need from each other Practical steps churches, leaders, and families can take today Wilson is a contributing author to Intergenerate: Transforming Churches Through Intergenerational Ministry (2018) and All Ages Becoming (2023). He is currently serving as editor of the forthcoming book “Imagining All Generations” (ACU Press, 2025). Wilson earned his Doctorate of Ministry in 2016 with a focus on intergenerational ministry. This project developed into a passion as he saw the unique benefits for a church to embrace this vision of bringing all ages of the church together in meaningful ways.  Since then, Wilson continues to work with churches and leaders in America and around the world to help them see and explore the power intergenerational ministry. https://www.drwilsonmccoy.com Reach out to us at nextgennow@thehills.org and find more information about The Hills Church at www.thehills.org.

This generational housing boom isn't just numbers — it's changing neighborhoods, prices, and even family life. For sellers, timing has never mattered more. Baby boomers are staying in their homes longer than ever — a median of 13 years compared to just 6 in the 1980s. That keeps supply constrained and prices strong. To appeal to younger buyers, features like smart home tech, EV charging stations, flexible workspaces, and multipurpose layouts are becoming must-haves. And it's not just younger buyers in the mix — many sales are Boomer-to-Boomer transactions, as retirees downsize or relocate to retirement-friendly communities. For buyers, affordability remains a serious challenge. Millennials are entering homeownership later, with an average first purchase at age 36 versus 29 in 1981, largely due to higher costs and student loan debt. To compete, many are turning to creative strategies like co-buying with family or friends, or purchasing multigenerational homes — a segment that now makes up about one in five transactions. Add in competition from institutional investors in the starter-home market, and the pressure intensifies. For communities, the shifts are visible. Younger buyers want walkable, mixed-use developments with easy access to amenities like gyms, coffee shops, and coworking spaces. That demand often clashes with boomers' desire for quiet and stability, creating tension around zoning and development. At the same time, homes with ADUs and in-law suites are rising in popularity, reshaping neighborhoods. From an investment perspective, real estate remains the top wealth-building tool across generations. Despite affordability challenges, Millennials collectively now own more homes than Gen X did at the same age. Hotspot markets in the Southeast, Texas, and Mountain West are drawing younger buyers with lower costs and job opportunities. Looking ahead, future trends will be driven by the massive wealth transfer as boomers pass down assets or downsize, unlocking much-needed inventory. Local governments will face mounting pressure to loosen zoning rules, approve ADUs, and allow more multifamily housing. Builders, too, are pivoting away from oversized homes toward smaller, affordable designs—a clear break from the McMansion era. Closing: We're in the middle of the largest housing turnover in U.S. history — but it's not just about transactions. It's about how multiple generations will live together, how communities evolve, and how wealth gets built and passed down. This is the generational housing boom, and it's already reshaping the American Dream. Call to Action: Want to see how this is playing out in your neighborhood?

CannCon and Ashe in America continue their deep dive into The Fourth Turning with Chapter 7, exploring how the GI, Silent, and Boomer generations shaped America's trajectory from post–World War II prosperity into the turbulence of the Consciousness Revolution. They trace the rise of the GI “We Generation,” the Silent Generation's conformity and cautious prosperity, and the Boomers' emergence as the idealistic prophets of cultural change. From the optimism of the 1950s to the upheavals of the 1960s and 70s, the hosts map how each archetype responded to shifting challenges, laying the groundwork for the awakenings and crises to follow.

This is why we embrace icons, myths, and archetypes.When we recognize a pattern that has been stored in our subconscious, we call it intuition.

Despite cultural shifts, Boomers remain a vital part of many communities—and churches. They're often more open to spiritual conversations, have time and resources to invest in ministry, and bring deep life experience that can benefit younger generations. Boomers still matter, and your church can more effectively reach and disciple them. The post Five Reasons Churches Should Still Try to Reach Boomers appeared first on Church Answers.
