Stop Being the Hero Doctor: Build a Practice That Runs Without You | E296Highlights from this episode:Stop Being the Hero Doctor: Build a Practice That Runs Without You (00:37)Closing Thought: When the medicine shows up (23:09)In this episode, I'm sharing the mindset shift that's pushing me from being the hero doctor in my practice to becoming the CEO of a scalable optometry business. I talk about the concept of “burning the ships” and why intentionally creating constraints—like adding another associate—forces growth and evolution as a practice owner. If you want to build a business that isn't dependent on you being in the exam lane every day, you have to stop thinking like an operator and start thinking like an owner. This episode is about building systems, multiplying revenue through your team, and becoming the version of yourself your practice needs next.Join in the conversation and subscribe to the podcast to keep up with all the great content coming down the pipe!

This week on U Up?, Jared is joined by Aleen Dreksler, CEO and co-founder of BETCHES, for a chaotic and honest deep dive into mama drama, ex etiquette, and career vs. kids debates. They discuss boundaries with mother-in-laws and what you can negotiate versus when you should just say nope, covering everything from holiday turf wars to posting your baby on Instagram without permission. Then it's petty or prudent when an ex crashes a run club and sends a seriously annoying “it'll get easier over time” text. Plus, an Icky or Picky ruling on a second date who announces a strict “no phones at the table” policy like he's running a dictatorship. Be sure to not miss updates from Jordana!

On social media, the vagus nerve often gets billed as the gateway to nervous system nirvana: It's your ticket to better rest, relaxation, and health if you “stimulate” it correctly. Where did this idea come from, and what does the research say?  Host Flora Lichtman talks with neurosurgeon Kevin Tracey, a pioneer of a field called bioelectronic medicine, which uses techniques to stimulate the nervous system with electricity. Back in the 1990s, he was the first to discover that the vagus nerve regulates the immune system and inflammation. Guest: Dr. Kevin Tracey is a neurosurgeon, and president and CEO of the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research at Northwell Health. He is the author of The Great Nerve.

Send a textIn this episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta Yadav sits down with Elana Drell Szyfer, president of Cosmetic Executive Women (CEW) and one of the most influential leaders in the global beauty industry. With more than three decades of experience spanning companies like Chanel, L'Oréal, Avon, Estée Lauder, and RéVive, Elana offers a rare behind-the-scenes look at how careers in beauty evolve—and what it takes to navigate an industry that constantly reinvents itself.Elana's path into beauty was anything but conventional. Originally a history major who imagined a future in nonprofit arts philanthropy, her first role at the Juilliard School focused on connecting donors with scholarship recipients. A shift toward business studies eventually led her into the beauty world through a position at Chanel's family office. Determined to move closer to the operating side of the industry, she studied trade publications, reached out to industry leaders directly, and ultimately landed at L'Oréal—where her career in beauty truly began.Over the next two decades, Elana built a foundation in marketing leadership across some of the industry's largest brands. Later, she transitioned into the entrepreneurial side of beauty, leading privately backed companies and guiding brands through transformation, acquisition, and growth—including her tenure as CEO of RéVive. Along the way, she witnessed firsthand how dramatically the beauty landscape has evolved, from traditional advertising and retail counters to today's fragmented world of social media, influencer discovery, and science-driven storytelling.As she steps into her new role at CEW, Elana reflects on leadership, the future of marketing, and the growing need for clarity around industry buzzwords like biotech and longevity.Listen to the full episode to hear Elana Drell Szyfer share lessons from her career and her vision for the future of the beauty industry.Learn more about CEWDon't forget to subscribe to Skin Anarchy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform.Reach out to us through email with any questions.Sign up for our newsletter!Shop all our episodes and products mentioned through our ShopMy Shelf!Support the show

On this episode we talk about: How a corporate sales job exposed Josh to the world of online entrepreneurship The evolution from running a marketing agency to acquiring e-commerce brands Why focusing on the health and beauty niche creates better growth opportunities The massive impact AI is having on marketing, operations, and e-commerce Josh's strategy for acquiring profitable brands and scaling them toward a public company Top 3 Takeaways Exposure to entrepreneurial environments can completely shift your career trajectory—even if you start in a traditional corporate job.

The future of e-commerce operations will combine AI automation with lean teams, dramatically increasing efficiency and scalability. Notable Quotes “Hearing how other business owners were making money completely opened my eyes to what was possible.” “Instead of being broad, we decided to specialize in health and beauty so we could create real synergy across brands.” “Resiliency is the number one trait you need as a business owner.” Connect with Josh Marsden: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joshmarsden Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joshscale Other: https://arm5formula.com Website: https://joshscale.com Travis Makes Money is made possible by High Level – the All-In-One Sales & Marketing Platform built for agencies, by an agency.

In this episode, Saul is joined by Mariya Filipova, CEO at Proclaim, a renowned healthcare executive, investor, and now Course Director at Harvard School of Dental Medicine. The conversation centers on the concept of Care Convergence, a vital shift in healthcare delivery that moves away from traditional, siloed treatment toward a "whole-person" approach.  Mariya explains that the current healthcare system is often hampered by quarterly financial cycles and fragmented clinician training, which fail to account for the interconnected nature of the human body. She emphasizes that true systemic change begins with education, leading her to co-design a first-of-its-kind program at Harvard. This curriculum is specifically built to connect clinicians and innovators with the business, technology, and cross-disciplinary skills necessary to lead the next generation of integrated care delivery. Tune in to discover how bridging the gap between clinical practice and business strategy can dismantle healthcare silos and finally put the whole patient at the center of the system.

"The next step for governments will be to confiscate gold," warns David Garofalo, the powerhouse CEO of Gold Royalty Corp. In this interview with Daniela Cambone, he delivers a stark warning about the future of fiat currency and the inevitable return to a gold-backed monetary system. Garofalo argues that the explosive growth of U.S. debt to 350% of GDP has set the stage for a global monetary reset, positioning gold not merely as a commodity, but as the ultimate monetary instrument. "It's like that saying about bankruptcy," he explains. "It happens gradually, then suddenly. That will be what happens with the confidence in our underlying fiat currencies. It will be a light switch that goes off."

Enterprise data estates often optimize for platform expansion over decision velocity, producing reporting layers that signal activity but fail to accelerate strategic outcomes. In this episode, Barry McCardel, CEO at Hex, examines how leading organizations can compress the gap between executive questions and decision-grade insight to materially increase the enterprise value of data. The discussion focuses on tightening feedback loops, operationalizing collaborative and AI-augmented analysis, and redefining data ROI around adoption, trust, and measurable business impact rather than production metrics.

What if one of the most interesting startups in New York is being built quietly in a barn in Vernon? In this episode of Rust Belt Startup, I sit down with Justin Call, founder and CEO of Modovolo, a company designing a new kind of drone — and doing it far from the typical startup scene. Instead of chasing hype or venture capital headlines, Justin and his team have been focused on something much harder: patiently building a real company, solving real problems, and learning what it takes to bring a complex idea to life. In our conversation, Justin shares the story behind Modovolo — how the company got started, why they chose a very different approach to designing drones, and what it's like to build a startup in a small community in Upstate New York. We also talk about some of the lessons entrepreneurs can take from his journey, including: • Why staying focused matters more than trying to grow too fast • What it's really like to build a product that has to work in the real world • The importance of patience when you're building something new • Why great companies can be built outside Silicon Valley • And how small teams can quietly do big things This episode is a behind-the-scenes look at how startups actually get built — not just the highlight reel. If you're interested in entrepreneurship, building things from scratch, or the future of innovation in places like Upstate New York, this conversation is for you.

What if every interaction you have as a leader is silently answering one question for your team: Are you safe to follow? In this episode, I sit down with Alan McLaren, co-founder of Strata Originals, to explore the invisible signals leaders send in every conversation, meeting, and interaction. Alan shares the powerful concept of “leadership signal,” explaining how trust is built or lost in real time based on how leaders show up emotionally, communicate under pressure, and respond to challenges. We discuss the neuroscience behind leadership presence, the hidden questions every team member is asking, and how leaders can become more intentional in building trust both inside the organization and in the digital world. Here are the highlights: • Leadership Signal: Every action, reaction, and tone a leader brings into a room sends signals that either build trust or quietly erode it. • The Four Questions Followers Ask: Team members subconsciously evaluate leaders by asking, “Are you safe to follow? Do you mean what you say? Will your actions match your words? Should I align, resist, wait, or leave?” • Your Nervous System Runs the Room: Leaders often believe communication is about words, but emotional reactions and nervous system responses can shape trust and credibility more than the message itself. • The Hidden Cost of “Meetings After the Meeting”: When leaders unintentionally shut down ideas or create psychological tension, conversations move underground and teams lose alignment. • Leadership Visibility in the Digital Age: Building trust today also requires showing up authentically online, where visibility and genuine communication help leaders connect with future partners, investors, and collaborators. About the guest:  Alan McLaren is a leadership thinker and co-founder of STRATA Originals, a Leadership Signal Architecture firm working with CEOs in high-stakes environments. His work centers on leadership signal, the way a leader's voice, presence, values, perspective, and style are experienced when pressure is real. Alan often says every room is quietly answering four questions about a leader: Are they safe to follow? Do they mean what they say? Will reality match their words? And should I align, resist, wait, or leave? Drawing on patterns seen across hundreds of senior leaders, Alan helps audiences understand why capable leaders can still misfire in critical moments, and what changes when leadership holds steady and trust forms.

What if a drug could kill cancer cells broadly, spare the immune system and then train it to keep fighting, without triggering resistance? That's the promise behind the ELANE pathway, a mechanism discovered not from a hypothesis but from studying fundamental biology in patients. In this episode of the In Vivo Podcast, Court Turner, CEO and co-founder of Onchilles Pharma, and Lev Becker, CSO and scientific founder, discuss how a neutrophil elastase-based mechanism is being translated into N17350, a first-in-class intratumoral agent targeting solid tumours including head and neck, skin and breast cancers. With $40m raised, GMP manufacturing of thousands of clinical doses completed, a US IND approved, and a first-in-human study underway in Australia, Onchilles is moving from "stubborn optimism" to clinical execution. Court and Lev discuss the dual mechanism that sets N17350 apart from both traditional chemotherapy and immunotherapy, why histone H1 functions as a universal tumour vulnerability rather than a conventional biomarker, and how they're thinking about combinations, partnering and the eventual value story for payers.

On this week's episode of the podcast, I am joined by Michael Komasinski, the CEO of Criteo, to explore the rapidly evolving landscape of agentic commerce and the critical role of recommendation systems in the AI era.

Glenn starts the show by examining a variety of events, including the current conflict in Iran, an ISIS-inspired bomb threat in New York, and recent cultural shifts that seek to disguise evil as righteousness. Glenn warns that radical Islamism, Marxism, and growing leftist ideologies historically don't have a happy ending for the civilizations these ideologies corrupt. Glenn and his team discuss a shocking X post from CNN, which has since been deleted, that appeared to draw sympathy for the radicals accused of throwing bombs at the anti-Muslim parade in New York City. Former investment banker Carol Roth joins to discuss the fluctuating price of oil and why it's so erratic. Carol also explains why gas prices spike immediately when oil prices jump, even though the gas has already been bought. Utah House candidate Karianne Lisonbee (R) joins to discuss why she's running against the Trump-endorsed incumbent Rep. Blake Moore (R). Glenn takes a question from one of his listeners, who asks why the SAVE America Act is needed if the number of illegal voters is negligible. Glenn explains why he believes all the global conflicts are signs of the end times. Yael Eckstein, CEO and president of International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, joins to discuss what it's like to live in Israel right now. Learn more about your ad choices.

Longevity science is shifting fast. New discoveries are revealing that aging may be influenced not just by genetics or lifestyle, but by specific nutrients that regulate cellular health. In this episode of Habits & Hustle, I sit down with Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson to explore the discovery of C15, a fatty acid that emerged from decades of research studying Navy dolphins. Her work suggests that declining C15 levels may weaken cell membranes, accelerate aging, and increase vulnerability to metabolic disease. We break down how this molecule works, why not all saturated fats are the same, and how modern dietary shifts away from full-fat dairy may be contributing to widespread nutrient deficiencies. We also discuss how C15 interacts with longevity pathways like AMPK and mTOR, the same pathways targeted by drugs like metformin and rapamycin, and why researchers believe C15 may function as a geroprotector — a compound capable of slowing biological aging. Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson is a veterinary epidemiologist, CEO of Seraphina Therapeutics, and author of The Longevity Nutrient. Her work bridges marine biology, epidemiology, and human longevity science to uncover how nutrition influences cellular aging.

Hello everyone! If you don't use Spotify to listen to our podcast, you can skip this one!  If you do listen on Spotify, we have decided to remove our show from the platform. Althrough many of the Friends at the Table cast were users of the service in the past, recent changes to Spotify and actions of it employees means our desire to remove ourselves from the platform now outweight the convenience of using it and letting our show remain on the service. These include support of generative AI music and artists, running ads we have no control over (including recruitment ads for the United State's DHS and ICE enforcement), and Spotify's CEO making investments into an AI military defense company.  In this recording, Jack and Austin do a better job of explaining the depth of our feelings on the matter and suggestions for alternatives to Spotify for listening and curating music. For podcasts, popular alternative apps are Overcast, PocketCasts, and Podcast Addict.

#336: In this week's installment of The Business of You series, I'm sitting down with Alex Hill — recipe developer, community builder, and the woman behind Just Add Hot Sauce — to talk about what it really takes to bet on yourself as a solopreneur and what it truly means to stop letting people play in your face, including yourself.This conversation is about the moment before the leap. The panic attack that becomes the pivot. The $25K savings goal. The train that's moving whether you're ready or not.If you're truly going to be the CEO of your life, it means you know your worth, and you move like it.We talk about turning content into capital, building a brand without letting the algorithm own you, and why “being the product” is both the source of opportunity and pressure. Because it's one thing to go viral. It's another thing to build a business that can outlive the internet.The Business of You is about ownership. Not just of your talent, but of your trajectory. This conversation is a masterclass in zooming out before the world decides your next move for you.This episode is for you if…You know you're talented but you're still figuring out how to think like the CEO of your own life.You want to move from scarcity to leverage.You want to learn the difference between being creative and being strategic.You're ready to build real ownership.You want to stop performing for the algorithm.You're learning that saying yes built the foundation but saying no builds the future.You're tired of shaking your ass for Kohl's cash and are ready to build real equity.Episode Links:Subscribe to Alex's Substack Food & Feelings here: https://justaddhotsauce.substack.com/Follow Alex on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/justaddhotsauce/?hl=enSponsors:IM8: If you're ready to feel more like your best self, go to IM8HEALTH.com/lucky and use code LUCKY.
