Podcasts about challenges

Welcome to the DMF!I'm Justin Younts, and in this episode, Sara Alessandrini opens up about the chaotic and often brutal world of documentary filmmaking.Sara walks us through the challenges she faced while creating her documentary — challenges that went far beyond the expected hurdles of production. She dealt with legal threats, bullying, and intense pushback from some of the very people she interviewed. What was meant to be a creative pursuit quickly revealed the darker, more hostile side of the industry.Throughout the episode, Sara explains how she navigated these obstacles: managing aggressive interviewees, protecting herself legally, and fighting tirelessly to get her film accepted into festivals. She shares the emotional toll the project took on her and the determination she needed to keep her vision alive despite the odds stacked against her.For Sara, this journey wasn't just about making a film — it became a test of strength, resilience, and integrity. She discusses the importance of due process, the complexities of handling real stories responsibly, and what it means to stand your ground in a competitive and often unforgiving industry.If you're an aspiring filmmaker or simply curious about the behind-the-scenes realities of documentary production, this episode offers raw insight, hard-earned lessons, and inspiration to keep pushing forward no matter the challenges.Join us as Sara pulls back the curtain on the truth, the chaos, and the courage it takes to tell a story that matters.00:00:01 - Introduction00:00:06 - The Role of Politicians00:00:42 - The Making of the Documentary00:01:30 - Challenges in the Film Industry00:01:49 - The Process of Making a Documentary00:01:59 - The Impact of Bullying in the Film Industry00:02:02 - The Fight for Ownership of the Documentary00:02:14 - The Transition from a Documentary to a Mini Series00:02:25 - The Release and Reception of the Documentary00:02:36 - The Politics Behind the Documentary00:04:09 - Legal Challenges and Threats00:04:32 - The Screening of the Documentary00:08:01 - The Confrontation at the Film Festival00:09:08 - The Aftermath and Ongoing Legal Issues00:10:39 - The Attempt to Sabotage the Documentary00:11:18 - The Aftermath of the Screening00:11:43 - The New Documentary Project00:12:16 - The Motives Behind the New Documentary00:12:45 - The Scam Behind the New Documentary00:13:16 - The Desire for Fame and Recognition00:14:00 - The Misunderstanding of the Role of a Producer00:15:06 - The Reality of the Movie Industry00:15:11 - The Problem of Unfinished Movies00:15:25 - The Misuse of Funds in Film Production00:15:40 - The Need for Legal Protection in the Film Industry00:16:04 - The Issue with Personal Motives in Film Production00:16:29 - The Miscommunication of Risk in Film Funding00:16:50 - The Misrepresentation of Film Producers00:18:00 - The Influence of Current Events on Documentary Editing00:19:38 - The Challenges of Editing a Documentary00:21:09 - The Process of Distributing a Documentary00:22:03 - The Role of Aggregators in Film Distribution00:22:57 - The Decision to Self-Distribute00:23:51 - The Process of Getting a Documentary Approved for Distribution00:24:42 - The Role of AI in Film Editing00:28:32 - The Future Plans of the Filmmaker00:30:34 - Daily Routine and Meditation00:31:37 - Physical Fitness and Sports00:32:26 - Reading and Family History00:33:25 - Music Preference00:33:40 - Watching Habits and Recent Movies00:35:22 - Contact InformationCheck out Sara's website, where you can learn more about the documentary miniseries and find links to watch it! https://www.thisiswhatnewyorkerssay.com https://www.instagram.com/lasava.alessandrini/

In 2022, long-distance riders Wendy Crockett and Ian McPhee set out on a world-record attempt to visit all 58 state capitols in Australia and the U.S.—in alphabetical order. But their carefully planned motorcycle trip quickly turned into chaos: mechanical failures, illness, animal strikes, wild weather, even hospitalizations. Despite everything, they kept pushing, driven by grit, humour, and sheer determination to finish what they started. But what they didn't expect was what happened when they finally hit a point where they couldn't push any farther—when they were genuinely stuck. In sharing their situation, they discovered something surprising, something they hadn't planned for at all… and it changed the course of their journey in ways they never saw coming.

In this special episode, we welcome back Lindsay Whorton, President of the Holdsworth Center, to discuss her new book, A New School Leadership Architecture: A Four-Level Framework for Reimagining Roles. We dive into why the current model for school leadership is unsustainable and explore a new framework for building capacity and driving results in Texas public schools and beyond. The Holdsworth Center is a nonprofit focused on building and strengthening leaders for Texas public schools. Texas educates 10% of the nation's children, and the challenges faced there—like high teacher turnover and the increased complexity of the principal and superintendent roles—reflect national trends. Lindsay explains that we have created leadership roles that are "pretty close to impossible" for an average person. A core mistake is the assumption that if educators simply work harder and build the right skills, everything will be fine. We argue that the old model of the principal as the single "hero" responsible for the development of all 30-40 teachers must evolve. Lindsay's framework offers a way to diagnose and restructure leadership roles to create shared leadership and meaningful stepping stones for development. It's about getting clear on the different leadership jobs and how they relate, moving away from an unhelpful hierarchy and toward an ethos of sharing power. Key Takeaways: The Impossible Job: The current principal role, where one person is the primary developer for an entire staff of 30-40+ teachers, is unsustainable, especially with new teachers entering the profession with limited preparation. The Four-Level Framework: The book outlines a four-level architecture—Team Member, Team Leader, Bridge Leader, and School Leader (Principal)—each with a unique leadership mission for building capacity and delivering results . The Bridge Leader: This key middle layer is vital for coaching Team Leaders, ensuring coherence, and connecting the different levels of the school. It also creates meaningful, smaller-jump development opportunities for future principals. A Shift in Identity: Moving into new leadership roles requires not just new skills and time allocation but a fundamental shift in professional identity, often requiring leaders to "release control" and trust their colleagues. AI and the Human Core: As technology changes the future of work, cultivating the "most human" skills—like recognizing the beautiful, feeling confident, and building relational capacity—becomes even more critical in education. Why You Should Listen: If you work in education, you understand the increasing pressure on school leaders and teachers. This conversation offers a practical, thoughtful, and evidence-based way to rethink your school's operating structure, unlock the untapped leadership potential (the "stranded brilliance" we discuss) in your building, and create a system where success doesn't depend on "superheroes". We provide a blueprint for supporting your current staff while developing the next generation of resilient school leaders.

Brianna Beans fell off a ladder on a home inspection... and it rocked her career. In fact, it inspired a complete overhaul of her business model and a pivot from home inspections... to rental property inspections. This opened up an entirely new stream of recurring revenue while allowing her to operate within her new safety limits.

Most founders dream about the day they can finally “retire.” But what happens when you actually get there, and it's not what you thought it would be?In this episode of Founder Talk, Dr. Rajeev Khanna, a former sports medicine physician who built and sold a thriving medical practice, shares how stepping away from work left him feeling restless, unfulfilled, and without purpose. After decades of treating athletes and employees across 700 companies, retirement hit harder than he expected until he found his next mission.Instead of coasting, Dr. Khanna came back to build CompCore Pro, a software company that helps businesses save millions by fixing the broken workers' compensation system. His company acts as a bridge between doctors, employers, and insurance carriers; cutting delays, improving patient outcomes, and ensuring injured employees get the right care faster and more affordably.We dive into how he turned boredom into a billion-dollar problem to solve, why the healthcare system is collapsing under middlemen, and how staying curious and purpose-driven is the real antidote to burnout.Dr. Khanna also breaks down the state of American health, from our sedentary lifestyles to the rise of convenience culture, and what both founders and everyday people can do to reverse it.You'll learn: ✅ Why chasing retirement can leave you emptier than you expect ✅ How to rebuild purpose after “success” ✅ What's broken in America's healthcare system (and how he's fixing it) ✅ How CompCore Pro is helping companies cut costs and care for employees faster ✅ Why curiosity and contribution matter more than comfortIf you've been searching “what to do after selling your business,” “how to find purpose after success,” or “why retirement isn't what it seems,” this episode delivers the truth. Because for some founders, freedom isn't the finish line — it's the start of what's next.Connect with Rajeev Khanna, M.D.Guest LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rajeev-khannamd/Guest Website: https://compcorepro.com/If you are a B2B company that wants to build your own in-house content team instead of outsourcing your content to a marketing agency, we may be a fit for you!

Episode 206: Street Medicine and Harm Reduction.  Mohammed Wase (medical student) and Dr. Singh describe what it is like to provide health care on the streets. They share their personal experiences working in a street medicine team. They describe the practice of harm reduction and emphasize the importance of respecting autonomy and being adaptable in street medicine. Written by Mohamed Wase, MSIV, American University of the Caribbean. Editing by Hector Arreaza, MD. Hosted by Harnek Singh, MD.You are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice.Introduction Dr. Singh: Welcome to another episode of our podcast, my name is Dr. Harnek Singh, faculty in the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program. Today we have prepared a great episode about street medicine, a field that has grown a lot during the last decade and continues to grow now. We are joined by a guest who is passionate about this topic. Wase, please introduce yourself.Wase: Hello everyone, my name is Mohammed, many know me as Wasé, I am a 4th year medical student from the American University of the Caribbean. Today we're diving into a topic that sits at the intersection of medicine, compassion, and public health — Street Medicine and Harm Reduction. We're going to step outside with this episode, literally, away from the clinic and hospital, to explore more about what care looks like in the streets. Historic background: How did street medicine start?Wase: The roots of Street Medicine in the United States go back to Dr. Jim Withers in Pittsburgh in the 1990s, who literally began by dressing as a homeless person and providing care on the streets to build trust. His efforts have shaped street medicine to what it is today. It combines primary care, mental health, and social support. Dr. Singh: For family physicians, this model aligns perfectly with our holistic approach. We don't just treat diseases; we treat people in context — their environment, their challenges, their stories. What is the main population seen by a street medicine team?Wase: This patient population includes those struggling with homelessness, housing insecurity, food insecurity, substance use disorders; with patients being preoccupied on where they will sleep that night or when their next meal comes, they do not have the luxury of prioritizing their health. Street Medicine is a powerful outreach program to bring care to them in order to provide equitable care within our community. Dr. Singh: How is street medicine different than caring for patients in the clinic?Wase: Working on the street means we have to think differently about what healthcare looks like — and that's whereharm reductioncomes in.What is Harm Reduction?Wase: Harm reduction is a public health philosophy that focuses on reducing the negative consequences of high-risk behaviors, rather than demanding complete abstinence.Dr. Singh: Preventive care is the backbone of family medicine. For example, we keep up with the USPSTF guidelines and make sure our patients are up to date with their screenings. But what does that look like in the street medicine setting? Wase: In practice, that might mean:-needle exchange program: Offering clean syringes to prevent HIV transmission and removing used needles-distributing naloxone to prevent overdose deaths-offering fentanyl test-strips to prevent use of substances that are unknowingly laced with fentanylDr. Singh: Also:-providing condoms to prevent sexually transmitted infections-providing wound care to prevent further spread of infectionWase: Yes, the idea is: people are going to engage in risky behaviors whether or not we approve of it, so let's meet them with compassion, tools, and trust instead of judgment. Harm reduction also applies beyond substance use; think about safer sex education, or even diabetic foot care among people who can't refrigerate insulin or change shoes daily. It's all about meeting people where they areandkeeping them alive and engaged in care. Planning in Street Medicine: Wase: It takes careful disposition planning and aftercare for this population. Instead of the traditional outpatient setting where we can place referrals and expect our patients to follow through with them. On street medicine, for follow up visits it requires arranging transportation, finding a pharmacy close in proximity, educating and counseling on medication adherence and how to make it, and making sure they have some sort of shelter to get by. Dr. Singh: Let's describe a typical street med encounter.Wase: A typical Street Medicine encounter might look like this: a small team — usually a physician, nurse, social worker, and sometimes a peer advocate — goes out with backpacks of supplies. They might start with wound care, blood pressure checks, or even medication refills. But what's just as important is the relationship-building. Sometimes, the first visit isn't about medicine at all — it's about showing up consistently.Over time, that trust opens the door for conversations about addiction treatment, mental health, and preventive care. For example, in some California Street Medicine programs, teams are treating chronic conditions like hypertension, diabetes, and hepatitis C, right where patients live with the same evidence-based care we'd give in a clinic. One of my favorite quotes from Street Medicine teams is: “We're not bringing people to healthcare; we're bringing healthcare to people.”Challenges in Street Medicine:Wase: The populations that you will encounter include many people who will often downplay their own health concerns and prior diagnoses. Unfortunately, this is usually from countless months or years of feeling neglected by our healthcare system. Some may even express distrust in our healthcare system and healthcare providers. Patient will, at times, be apprehensive to receive care or trust you enough to tell their story. Dr. Singh: Interviewing patients is a critical aspect of providing equitable care on the streets. It is always important to offer support and medical care, even if the patient denies it, always reassure that your street medicine clinic will be around every week and ready for them when they would like to seek care. Wase: Respecting patient autonomy is an utmost concern as well. Another element of interviewing to consider is to invite new ideas and information; instead of lecturing patients about taking medications on time or telling them they need to stop doing drugs—simply asking a patient “would you like to know more about how we can help you stop using opioids?” respects their choice but can also spark new ideas for them to consider. Singh: Adaptability is another key component to exceling patient care in street medicine. Like, performing physical exams on park benches or in the back of a minivan. Always doing good with our care but also respecting their autonomy is crucial in building a trust that these patients once lost with our system. Wase: Each patient has their own timeline, but we as providers should always assure them that our door is always open for them when they are ready to seek care. Conclusion.Wase: So, to wrap up — Street Medicine and harm reduction remind us that healthcare isn't just about hospitals and clinics. It's about relationships, trust, and dignity.Every patient deserves care, no matter where they sleep at night.If you're a resident or student listening, I encourage you to seek out these experiences — volunteer with Street Medicine teams, learn from harm reduction workers, and let it shape how you practice medicine. Thank you for listening to this episode of the Rio Bravo qWeek podcast. I'm Mohammed — and I hope this conversation inspires you to meet patients where they are and walk with them on their journey to health.Dr. Singh: If you liked this episode, share it with a friend or a colleague. This is Dr. Singh, signing off.Even without trying, every night you go to bed a little wiser. Thanks for listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast.

If you're interested in optimising your healthspan and lifespan, this episode is not to be missed. In the quest for longevity, the spotlight has turned to NAD+ and its precursors, NMN and NR. In this episode featuring Dr. Charles Brenner, a metabolism scientist, we dive deep into the significance of these molecules and their role in healthy aging. You'll discover that NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) is not just a trending topic but rather a crucial player in metabolism. Learn why Charles refers to it as the "central jewel of metabolism". In the conversation, the distinction between NMN (Nicotinamide Mononucleotide) and NR (Nicotinamide Riboside) is clarified, and you'll discover which of these molecules has the best evidence-base. You'll also find out why some popular ways to increase NAD+ are an expensive waste of time. Dr. Brenner highlights the importance of evidence-based research, citing eight randomised clinical trials demonstrating the anti-inflammatory effects of one of the NAD+ precursors in humans. One significant study focuses on peripheral artery disease (PAD), a condition affecting millions of older adults that can severely impact mobility and quality of life. Ypu'll also disciver why a simple functional test is a way better predictor of longevity than all of the espoensive epigenetic-focused Biological Age tests that are currently on the market. What You'll Learn: The Basics of NAD and Its Functions: Understand the foundational role of NAD in cellular metabolism and how it acts as a transmitter of high-energy electrons needed for energy production and cell functions. Scientific Evidence and Research: Discover the rigor behind the clinical research of NAD and its supplements, like Nicotinamide Riboside (NR), including ongoing trials and results showing anti-inflammatory properties in humans. Controversies and Misconceptions: Unpack the myths concerning longevity molecules, such as misinterpretations around resveratrol, with arguments laid out by reputable scientists like Dr. Brenner. Applications in Age-Related Diseases: Explore the potential of NR supplements in addressing conditions like peripheral artery disease and its promising though variable outcomes in treating Long COVID and neurodegenerative diseases. Critical Analysis of Clinical Trials: Learn about the importance of clinical integrity, unbiased research, and how independent laboratories contribute to credible scientific discoveries. Key Takeaways: NAD is vital for maintaining metabolic health and managing cellular stress, which is essential for healthy aging. Recent clinical trials have shown promising results for NR in reducing inflammation and improving conditions related to peripheral artery disease. There's ongoing research into NR's benefits for cognitive function, particularly its potential effects on neurodegenerative disease. Supplements should be chosen carefully, preferably ones that have been tested in clinical trials to ensure efficacy and authenticity. The conversation between Dr. Taylor and Dr. Brenner highlights the need to critically evaluate scientific claims, especially those that are widely publicised without robust evidence. Through the episode, Dr. Brenner provides deep insights into how NAD coenzymes operate within the body and why they're considered crucial for longevity research. Moreover, listeners are encouraged to discern meticulously between scientific fact and internet hype, ensuring they make informed decisions when considering supplements. The episode is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the intersection of biochemistry, aging, and healthspan science.

PREVIEW Counterinsurgency Challenges and Narcoterrorism Threats Post-Intervention in Venezuela. Colonel Jeff McClausen, United States Army retired, examines the serious counterinsurgency challenges the US would face 50 days or 50 weeks after a potential Venezuelan intervention. The threat comes from narcoterrorism gangs operating from sanctuaries in neighboring countries like Colombia, Ecuador, or Brazil, who might use IEDs in the jungle if their livelihood is threatened. Colonel McClausen notes that while US forces fought in Iraq and Afghanistan, the focus has shifted to large-scale conventional warfare, leading to a loss of specialized counterinsurgency experience.
