The Buffalo Bills are off to a 3-0 start and now turn their attention to the defending AFC East champion New England Patriots. Eric Wood and Josh Reed break down Drake Maye's slow start, why defenses may have found a formula to make him uncomfortable, and how Buffalo can force the young quarterback to win from the pocket. They also look at New England's injuries on offense, the absence of A.J. Brown, and how the Bills secondary could match up with a limited Patriots receiving corps. The guys also discuss Josh Allen's ability to stay in control emotionally, when he needs to protect himself as a runner, the motivation that comes with a division rivalry, and why this matchup still carries extra intensity. Plus, Eric identifies Buffalo's biggest concerns through three games, explains why Jim Leonhard hasn't had to blitz as aggressively as expected, and lays out what the Bills need to do to get past New England and keep their perfect start alive.The Centered on Buffalo Podcast is sponsored by:Azuna Freshazunafresh.com20% Off Code: Wood20Dan-O's Seasoning Follow Dan-O's Seasoning on Social @danosseasoning danosseasoning.com20% Off Code: Wood20US ONLYNugsax Reusable Icenugsax.com10% Off CODE: ewood

Title: Signal Discipline: How Brands Use AI, Customer Signals, and Memory to Build TrustHost: Nick Brunker (Managing Director of Experience Strategy, VML)Guest: Adam Troyak (Managing Director, VML & WPP Enterprise Solutions)OverviewIn an era where AI makes capturing and storing customer data easier than ever, why are 77% of organizations reporting that AI adoption has outpaced their governance?In this episode of Human Centered, host Nick Brunker welcomes back Adam Troyak to unpack Signal Discipline—the strategic framework that separates customer care from customer surveillance. Adam breaks down why the biggest competitive advantage in AI isn't gathering more data, but developing the judgment to know what to remember, what to forget, and what to say out loud.Key Takeaways & Topics Covered:Data vs. Signals: Why functional data (clicks, browsing history) belongs to tech infrastructure, while first-party signals (human needs, self-disclosed preferences) belong to experience strategy.The "Surveilled" Trap: Why over 80% of tech spend lands in the high-data/low-trust quadrant—and why restraint is the true fix.The 5-Layer Signal Model: A step-by-step breakdown of Signals, Context, Memory, Trust, and Relationships.The Memory Policy Engine: How to build the "middle layer" in your tech stack that programmatically decides when data should persist, decay, surface, or be forgotten.Cross-Functional Alignment: Bringing the CIO, CMO, and Chief Risk Officer into the same room to map the 25 key "trust-bonding" moments in the customer journey.Read more of Adam's written pieces on Signal DisciplineThe Drum
Welcome to the September 26, 2026, Saturday Morning Movie Session from "The Way" Online Weekend Retreat, hosted by Peter Kirk. Centered on the weekend's theme, "True Service, I Need Do Nothing but Follow You," Peter uses a classic 1989 Steven Spielberg film about daredevil aerial firefighters to explore the profound shift from ego-driven specialness to Spirit-led service. Through the movie's compelling character dynamics, the session illuminates how our attempts to control and restrict love only lead to isolation, and how true helpfulness—our authentic purpose—arises effortlessly when we lay down our personal plans and open our minds to the gentle, expansive guidance of the Holy Spirit. The session ends with a Mystical Music Lounge. These gatherings take place every weekend and include comedy, teachings, films, music, panel discussions, and live Q&A sessions with David Hoffmeister and members of the Living Miracles Community.Register for The Way for free here: https://programs.the-christ.net/courses/the-way-of-the-mysticIf you want to learn more about David Hoffmeister and Living Miracles events, visit https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/events Recording Date: Online, Saturday, September 26, 2026Follow us on:YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/DavidHoffmeister https://www.youtube.com/@LivingMiraclesFacebook:https://www.facebook.com/ACIM.ACourseInMiracles Learn more about David & Living Miracles:https://circle.livingmiraclescenter.org/eventsLearn more about A Course in Miracles:https://ACIM.bizDavid's Spanish YouTube Channel is: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCP9Gw00CldPUmiu43y7fdWwDavid's Portuguese YouTube Channel is:https://www.youtube.com/@davidhoffmeisterucem

In this episode, I'm sharing practical ways therapists can make room for political stress in the therapy room without allowing the session to become a debate. I also created a FREE quick-reference guide, Political Stress in Therapy: 10 Client-Centered Questions to Use in Session. It includes practical questions to help you move beyond the political headline and explore the emotions, values, boundaries, and next steps underneath a client's distress. Download it free here: lisa-mustard.aweb.page/free-political-stress-guide Politics can affect our clients' sense of safety, identity, belonging, relationships, and hope for the future. I talk about how to move from the headline to its deeper meaning; validate a client's emotional experience without endorsing every opinion; help clients regulate, set boundaries, and take values-aligned action; and notice our own reactions as therapists. I also address what to say when prospective clients ask where you stand politically and why it is okay for clients to decide they need a therapist who feels like the right fit for them. For additional support, I mention How to Navigate Politics in Session Without Taking Sides, which offers structured prompts and guidance for ethical, client-centered conversations. I also share my Political Stress Ebook Workbook: Coping Strategies for Therapists, a downloadable, client-facing ebook that therapists can customize and rebrand with their own information. Whether your clients are doomscrolling, fighting with family, feeling afraid about the future, or overwhelmed by the intensity of the news cycle, I hope this episode offers a grounded, practical way to respond.

Centered on the idea of "futuring" or craving, this talk by Hogen Roshi examines how the mind actively shapes an infinite, formless world into a narrow personal story through wanting. It suggests liberation comes from noticing this shaping process rather than being unconsciously driven by it. ★ Support this podcast ★

Remember Joseph DiGenova? He was a Trump defender from the first administration brought back to help with the investigation into the investigators that DOJ is running down in south Florida. Well, he's gone again. He seems to have had some disputes with the Attorney General about the conduct of that investigation — “if you want indictments where there's no evidence, you have an ethical problem,” he told the New York Post. Plus: Donald Trump continues to be stymied in his efforts to rename the Kennedy Center after himself — his latest threat is that he'll tear down the building if he doesn't get his way. Former immigration judge Chloe Dillon sues over her firing, Mahmoud Khalil sues,Columbia University, injunctions against ICE and legal victories for people who were fired for saying not-nice things about Charlie Kirk, a lawsuit against Lufthansa, whose employee outed a gay couple in Saudi Arabia — does that create a claim in the United States, where they were flying to? And finally: Kash Patel and bizarrely relaxed hiring metrics at the FBI and a right-wing media figure who resolved defamation litigation with an apology for lying about Patel's girlfriend.

The Buffalo Bills opened their new stadium in style with a Thursday night win over the Detroit Lions — and Josh Allen looked completely in command.Eric Wood and Josh Reed break down Buffalo's explosive offense, Allen's control at the line of scrimmage, James Cook's big night, Dalton Kincaid becoming a matchup nightmare, and another strong performance from the Bills offensive line. They also discuss Joe Brady's growing influence on the offense and how Buffalo continues to create easy scoring opportunities with so many weapons on the field. On defense, Eric takes a victory lap on Gregory Rousseau, explains why Buffalo's pass rush is finally turning pressure into sacks, and breaks down the impact of Deone Walker and Bradley Chubb. The guys also examine some early concerns in Jim Leonhard's secondary and what Buffalo can clean up before facing the Chargers. Plus, Eric shares his reaction to the atmosphere inside Buffalo's new stadium and why opening night felt different from anything he had experienced there before.The Centered on Buffalo Podcast is sponsored by:Azuna Freshazunafresh.com20% Off Code: Wood20Dan-O's Seasoning Follow Dan-O's Seasoning on Social @danosseasoning danosseasoning.com20% Off Code: Wood20US ONLYNugsax Reusable Icenugsax.com10% Off CODE: ewood

When Holly and Nathan Miller learned their baby was breech late in pregnancy, the unmedicated vaginal birth they had been preparing for suddenly felt out of reach. Living in rural South Georgia, they explored their options, including finding a provider experienced in vaginal breech birth, but ultimately faced limited choices close to home. In this episode, EBB Childbirth Class graduates Holly and Nathan share how they shifted their focus from the birth they had originally envisioned to creating a family-centered Cesarean experience.

Chain of Learning: Empowering Continuous Improvement Change Leaders
People-centered. Learning organization. Culture of continuous improvement. We use a lot of different words to describe what we are trying to create.But do we actually mean the same thing? And if we all want it, what's stopping us from getting there? And what is the one thing that could have the biggest impact?So I asked. And you answered.Leaders and change practitioners around the world responded. There wasn't one shared definition or set of words for a people-centered learning culture. But the same essence was in almost every answer.The pressures we're all working in are real, and they're not going away. Yet the biggest impact comes from something we can influence: our own leadership behavior. And that starts with us.You'll Learn:Why "people-centered" and "learning" are intertwined concepts that support each other in creating a learning organizationHow to describe what we're trying to build to leaders who never ask for a people-centered learning cultureWhy "respect for people" means more than treating people well, and how it's fundamental to developing people and organizational successHow urgency, firefighting, and short-term pressure to deliver results exacerbate our pull toward doing rather than developing peopleWhy the environment is seen as the barrier, and leadership behavior is the lever for changeIMPORTANT LINKS:Full episode show notes: ChainOfLearning.com/84 Follow me on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/kbjandersonSubscribe to my newsletter: kbjanderson.com/newsletterCheck out my website for resources and working together: KBJAnderson.comJoin us on the Japan Leadership Experience: KBJAnderson.com/JapanTrip TIMESTAMPS FOR THIS EPISODE:02:03 What leaders actually want from their teams04:31 Why urgency gets in the way of developing people06:17 How ego and leader behavior limit ownership08:22 When fear makes it harder to speak up and learn10:37 The biggest lever for creating a people-centered culture12:35 Why we can't wait for the system to change14:08 How caring pulls us into the Doer Trap15:47 What “respect for people” really means17:28 What people-centered leadership looks like in practice18:07 How learning happens through the work20:49 What people need to solve their own problems22:35 Start with what you can influence Enter for your chance to win a copy of "Thoughtload" by Liane Davey: http://chainoflearning.com/85Giveaway ends October 9th at 11:45pm Pacific Time.
With over 45 years in engineering, enterprise software, sales leadership, and global sales enablement, Art Fromm joins us to share his thoughs on what sets exceptional sales leaders apart from sales managers, how to build high-performing, collaborative sales teams, and the importance of aligning around the client's buying journey rather than just the sales process. We discuss what makes coaching effective, how to leverage technology without losing the human touch, and which leading indicators really predict sales success. Outline of This Episode [00:00] Traits of effective leadership [03:42] Aligning sales with buyer process [08:32] Balancing AI and Human Thinking [11:03] Building strong client partnerships [14:01] Sales management do's and don'ts [17:07] Impact of sales methodology Sales Leadership vs. Sales Management: Understanding the Difference Sales management is primarily about executing the business—monitoring forecasts, managing pipelines, and ensuring activities are tracked. Sales leadership, on the other hand, is about changing the business: creating clarity, removing obstacles, cultivating culture, and inspiring teams to achieve more than they believed possible. Organizations thrive when they strike the right balance—leveraging strong management for operational excellence and empowering visionary leadership to ignite motivation, foster trust, and drive innovation. The DNA of Great Sales Leaders Reflecting on decades of experience, Art identifies several key traits that set exceptional sales leaders apart: Consistent Curiosity & Coachability: Top leaders ask questions, remain open to feedback, and are always learning. Client Focus: They prioritize external and internal customers—striving to truly understand their needs and equip them for success. Building Trust: Effective sales leaders foster both top-down and bottom-up trust. They lead with authority but drive buy-in and collaboration to achieve shared objectives. Leaders recognize that motivated individuals deliver superior results—making collaboration and mutual understanding the foundation for sustained performance. Building High-Performance, Client-Centric Sales Teams High-performing sales teams are unified around the client's buying journey, not just their own sales process. Too often, organizations focus inward—pushing opportunities through their defined stages and losing sight of the buyer's critical milestones. Art advocates for: Aligning all go-to-market roles (sales, pre-sales, and customer success) around the client's process Clarifying roles and shared accountability within the team Leveraging technology and CRMs to facilitate—not complicate—selling and buying When sales teams operate as a coordinated unit, customer outcomes improve, win rates rise, and engagement soars. Technology, AI, and Human Insight in Sales Leadership While artificial intelligence and advanced tech can streamline research and drive efficiency, Art Fromm stresses that competitive advantage still stems from genuine, human-to-human discovery and emotional intelligence. Leaders should use AI to augment—not replace—strategic thinking, preparation, and authentic customer engagement. Seamless Alignment Drives Lasting Impact Aligning sales, pre-sales, and customer success around shared goals and frameworks fundamentally transforms results. It's not about hoping for improvement—it's about intentionally shaping the environment so that teams and clients alike thrive. Great sales leadership means moving from silos to synergy, from seller-centric to client-centric, and from transactional management to transformative guidance.

With more than 24 years of experience in scaling businesses, Carlo knows that psychological safety and empathy aren't “soft” skills — they're the drivers of high performance.Carlo shares how a high school drama teacher first recognized his leadership talent and modeled people-first leadership, shaping how he leads with empathy today. We dive into trust and psychological safety, the natural human tendency to want to learn, and how that builds relationships and trust between leaders and their teams when that trust is there and individuals feel respected and heard. When it comes to getting sh*t done, we discuss and debunk the excuses that leaders use and give practical steps that can be taken now to show you care and get things done.

What if sustainable leadership transformation begins not with strategy, systems, or titles—but with connection? In this episode of Let's Have This Conversation, Melissa Swonger, known as the Architect of Connection-Centered Leadership™, explores the invisible architecture beneath effective leadership: the beliefs, relationships, behavioral patterns, and cultural dynamics that shape how people lead themselves, influence others, navigate change, and build organizations where people can flourish. Melissa is a scholar-practitioner, change theorist, international bestselling author, keynote speaker, executive coach, and organizational culture advisor. Her work bridges psychology, leadership development, organizational culture, change theory, human behavior, and whole-person development to help leaders move beyond surface-level solutions and create sustainable transformation. According to Gartner research, 90% of HR leaders believe that focusing on the human aspects of leadership is necessary for success in today's workplace. Yet recognizing the importance of human-centered leadership and consistently putting it into practice are two very different things. Melissa's work addresses that gap through Connection-Centered Leadership™ and her Integrative Transformation Blueprint™, a research-informed approach built around three stages: Awareness → Connection → Movement The framework challenges leaders to examine not only what they are building, but what they are building on. Sustainable organizational change requires understanding the underlying beliefs, relationships, behaviors, and informal systems influencing how people communicate, collaborate, make decisions, and respond to change. Throughout our conversation, we explore why leadership begins long before someone receives a title, how self-awareness influences organizational culture, and why meaningful connection can become a catalyst for stronger leadership and sustainable change. We also examine Melissa's concept of radical kindness and why kindness, connection, and human-centered leadership should not be confused with avoiding accountability. Instead, they can help create the conditions for trust, honest communication, meaningful relationships, and transformational performance. Melissa shares insights from her work across executive advisory, leadership and culture consulting, speaking, workshops, retreats, and author development through The Muse & The Method™. In This Conversation, We Explore: At its core, this conversation asks leaders to consider a powerful question: What are you building—and what are you building it on? For executives, HR professionals, people leaders, entrepreneurs, organizational development professionals, and anyone interested in the future of work, this episode offers a deeper examination of how connection-centered and human-centered leadership can create sustainable transformation from the inside out.

Eric Wood and Josh Reed preview Buffalo's matchup with Houston and break down one of the toughest tests the Bills will face early in the season.They discuss how Buffalo can slow Houston's dominant pass rush, why protecting Josh Allen will require more than simply trusting the offensive line, and how DJ Moore could change the way defenses play the Bills. Eric also looks at where Dalton Kincaid and James Cook could find opportunities against the Texans defense. On the other side of the ball, Eric and Josh dive into what Jim Leonhard's defense may look like in its first real test, how Buffalo could use Ed Oliver and Greg Rousseau, and whether the Bills can finally improve against the run.The Centered on Buffalo Podcast is sponsored by:Azuna Freshazunafresh.com20% Off Code: Wood20Dan-O's Seasoning Follow Dan-O's Seasoning on Social @danosseasoning danosseasoning.com20% Off Code: Wood20US ONLYNugsax Reusable Icenugsax.com10% Off CODE: ewood
