AI could possibly be one of the best tools for the mental health field. The merging of technology and therapy is exciting and getting proven results.. AI is no longer some strange science fiction concept, it is becoming a part of human existence. Dr. Gabriella Kellerman (@gabriellarosenkellerman) has dedicated her life to discovering the most impactful ways to empower and transform the condition of mental illness. Her passion for the science of thriving has led her to become the Chief Innovation Officer and Chief Product Officer at BetterUp Labs. Her new book Tomorrow Mind is all about thriving and training our minds to investigate and learn how we can improve our thought process, attitudes, and actions.     Many advances have been made thanks to the technology advancements of AI. Utilizing this new era Dr. Gabriella Kellerman has dedicated her work in discovering research based inclusive methods that will support people in thriving in today's world. Inspired by her father's dedication to helping humanity with sustainable energy resources, Dr. Kellerman from a young age decided she wanted to also dedicate her life to a purpose that would serve humanity. “ We are trying to help people shift into a more proactive mindset, where it's not about any one challenge. It's about all of the challenges to come preparing to meet them with greater resilience, greater foresight, greater reserves of motivation. ”  - Dr. Gabriella Rosen Kellerman Key Takeaways:   PRISM: This acronym stands for Honing Prospection: the ability to think about the future (P), Resilience (R), Finding, Innovation, establishing Social supports (S), and  meaning (M).    Key Difference of a Coach vs. Therapist: Therapists can treat clinical conditions, get reimbursement from insurance, etc. Therapists do also see high functioning people for non clinical purposes without insurance reimbursement which can look a lot like coaching. Coaches do not do clinical work, they do not treat clinical conditions.They are wonderful resources for building personal and professional development skills.    Toxic Positivity: Toxic positivity is sort of a shallow positivity, where people know that underlying it is not that depth of authentic, positive feeling. Chasing happiness as a goal or the ultimate state can be toxic because it can trap us in denying the value of the rainbow of emotional states. Living a positive life includes relationships, deep engagement with your work, a sense of achievement, a sense of meaning and purpose, these don't always come with positive emotions as relationships can be difficult. Optimistic Thinking: Our brains tend to lean toward pessimistic thoughts. Being aware of when we go into fear or reaction and looking at what thoughts come up is important. Catching negative thoughts regarding outcomes and countering them with possible positive results can help us stay in balance and be less reactive.

Safer, Faster, Smarter: How Entrepreneurs Are Upgrading Hospital Tech

StartUp Health NOW Podcast

Welcome to StartUp Health NOW, the podcast where we celebrate the entrepreneurs and innovators who are transforming health. So when you go to the hospital for care, you accept that the outcome isn't completely under your or your doctor's control. Even with textbook healthcare, bad things can happen for a variety of reasons and your health can decline. Put another way, it's hard enough when good care results in a bad outcome. But what about when a preventable error occurs? It can seem incomprehensible, bewildering. This idea that mistakes can happen in the hospital – mistakes that can take an already tenuous situation and make it even worse – and yet to err is human and hospitals are full of humans, so mistakes happen. Thankfully, there are brilliant people out in the world working to reduce these preventable hospital errors in creative ways like our first guest on today's show: Fox Holt, CEO of Vigilant. This startup – which joined StartUp Health in 2022 – is digitizing medication tracking by doing away with handwritten medication notes. No more scribbling instructions on the side of an IV bag or, worse, on a syringe. With Vigilant's easy-to-launch system, nurses can immediately start labeling and tracking meds in automated ways. This ensures patients get the right dose every time and no preventable medication errors occur. As a bonus, hospitals reap the benefits of all that medication data on the back end, data they were missing with handwritten labels. Our second guest is also streamlining operations in the hospital, but with more of a mind towards provider satisfaction versus direct patient safety. Although it's easy to see where the two intersect downstream. Sanji Silva is the Chief Product Officer & Chief Technology Officer at Mocingbird, a startup upgrading and streamlining the provider credentialing process. If Mocingbird  – which joined StartUp Health in 2020 –  has their way, gone will be the days lost to credentialing paperwork and hospitals having to scramble to find qualified workers as these standards shift from state to state. It will all be one unified system that keeps providers up to date with continuing education and keeps hospitals fully staffed. It's not just about paperwork, as onerous credentialing processes lead to burnout which push providers out of the profession entirely, leading to poorer quality care due to fewer available physicians.

“It's super important not to define regenerative agriculture as this ultra-advanced way of doing agriculture— we define it more through the measures that are being applied rather than the state that a farmer is at." —Nina Mannheimer Industrial agriculture has been the backbone of food production for decades, but it is now being challenged by a new approach— regenerative agriculture. This method of farming has been gaining traction in recent years due to its potential for positive system change and its scientific foundation. It is also being supported by new agritech platforms that are making it easier to implement and track progress.  Regenerative agriculture is not just about improving the environment, but also creating a sustainable business case for farmers. This became the mission of one company. By focusing on soil health and other elements of sustainability, regenerative agriculture can create a more resilient agricultural system that will benefit both people and the planet. This week, Justine sits with Nina Manheimer, a founding member of Klim Foods. Nina is a true champion for regenerative agriculture and her work at Klim Foods is a testament to her commitment to making a positive impact on our planet. As the Chief Product Officer and climate strategist, she is dedicated to the development of products that can help reduce environmental damage while also promoting climate-friendly agriculture. Nina understands that in order to make meaningful change, it is essential to communicate the importance of sustainable practices and educate consumers on the benefits they can bring. Join in as Justine and Nina talk about how we can scale regenerative agriculture and magnify its impact, why we should define “regenerative” through the systems applied instead of where the farmer is at, how regenerative agriculture provides the key to human health and environmental sustainability, how to navigate the rough terrains of starting your business, why human element is important in a world of tech, how to help both farmers and companies make a smooth transition towards a regenerative future, and much more!   Meet Nina:  Nina works as the Chief Product Officer and sustainability strategist at Klim Foods.

We wake up in a fast-paced world, and sometimes 24 hours isn't enough. But what if you could get back an extra hour each week? What would you do with it? I bet most of us will do what we love. Perhaps become a better spouse, parent, or friend. Or pursue bigger things and spend an hour less treated like a ticket. That's when the power of AI comes in. Today's episode is not a typical discussion about AI because our guest, Dan Turchin, CEO and Founder of PeopleReign, will tell us what the future could be with the help of AI. Meet the tech powerhouse and AI aficionado, Dan Turchin! As the CEO and Founder of PeopleReign, he's revolutionizing employee service automation with his leading AI platform. He's also a member of the Forbes Technology Council and the host of the wildly popular podcast show AI and the Future of Work. But wait, there's more! Before PeopleReign, he was at the helm of InsightFinder, the AIOps leader, and co-founded Astound, an AI-first enterprise platform for HR and IT. Oh, and did we mention he's served as Chief Product Officer at Fortinet and a Senior Director of Product Strategy at ServiceNow? This guy's tech cred is off the charts. But he's not just a tech genius, Dan's also an active angel investor and startup advisor with over 30 companies in his portfolio. He's passionate about building great teams and great products that solve hard problems and change lives. And when he's not crushing it in the tech world, he's likely cheering on youth soccer, indulging in some adventure sports, or reading Asimov and Dr. Seuss. Dan's got a BS and BA from Stanford University, so he's got the smarts to back up his incredible tech journey.

You've got like your companion brain that gets smarter all the time and is just there to assist you, to make you like the best version...That's our vision for the future of work, for the future of humanity.” --- Dan Turchin Gen Z is known for being great consumers of new technologies, like AI and machine learning, without necessarily understanding how they work. Imagine walking into the office and the walls knowing who you are, making your job easier. The mundane tasks that create friction between employees and employers disappear, giving employees an hour back to do more of what they love. Dan Turchin emphasizes the end goal is to bring impact to the next billion employees and make work life more human. Transforming Life, Enhancing Capabilities Imagine being able to travel the world and understand every language without even speaking it. Sounds like science fiction, right?

I'm not a financial advisor; nothing I write in Superpowers for Good should be considered investment advice. You should seek appropriate counsel before making investment decisions.Devin: What do you see as your superpower?Ben: I think a real superpower when you're creating as an entrepreneur is being able to look at things, recombine them and create something new. We oftentimes think of something new coming out of ex-nihilo, like out of nowhere, born out of the mind of Elon Musk or Steve Jobs. But I don't think that's actually true. I think you're usually better off being kind of a scavenger and taking the existing things that are around, like the JOBS Act and a bond marketplace and loans, and reconstituting them, refashioning them to create a new species of, in our case, a financial product that has new traits and has new capacities to do new things that it wasn't capable of before. So I'd say the ability to kind of recombine things and think creatively was helpful for me and my co-founders.Ben Lozano grew up working at his father's boutique financial accounting firm in Southern California, specializing in growth planning for small and medium-sized businesses. He helped many first and second-generation Hispanic Americans grow their businesses by providing accounting services and assisting in bank loan applications. That experience stayed with him.After earning a Ph.D. at UC Santa Cruz, coincidentally defending his dissertation as Bear Stearns failed, marking the beginning of the Great Recession. He stayed in academia for several years, focusing on fintech.AI Summary1. SMBX offers debt financing to small and medium businesses.2. SMBX connects businesses that would typically take out bank loans with people in their community who want to invest in them by lending money.3. SMBX's rates generally sit between 7-10% and are competitive.4. SMBX's mission is to enable people to decide, for themselves, what kind of world they want to create with their unused money and earn profits.5. Anyone can invest in a business for as little as $10 on SMBX's platform.6. SMBX's co-founder Ben Thurgood says they initially targeted businesses with a fanbase or high believability factor to create a diversified portfolio of small business bonds.7. Ben's superpowers are being stubborn and creating something new by recombining things.8. To become a successful entrepreneur, rely on what you know and take input from outside the field.9. SMBX allows people to invest directly in small businesses through bond offerings.10. Ben is available on LinkedIn and through email for discussions.Ben will speak at SuperCrowd23, which begins tomorrow. He'll join a panel discussion with twelve, yes, twelve crowdfunding CEOs! Superpowers for Good readers are entitled to a 50 percent discount. Register today!Watching the investment crowdfunding market closely as it began to unfold following the passage of the JOBS Act in 2012, he began to conceive a plan to create something novel in the space: small business bonds.It sounds easy and obvious now, but it took two years to convince regulators that what he and his co-founders envisioned would be legal under Regulation Crowdfunding.SMBX opened for business just weeks before the pandemic began. Challenges notwithstanding, the business is proving a real success.“We have had a lot of businesses who have refinanced out of existing borrowing relationships that they've had, and factoring has certainly been some of them,” Ben says. “I'd say credit cards have been a big one. But the overwhelming majority of businesses listing bonds on our marketplace would otherwise be taking out term bank loans.”The difference isn't so much a big financial arbitrage or better borrowing rates so much as the benefit that comes from having your community, including your customers, provide the financing. It strengthens the relationship.By way of example, Ben shared the story of a San Francisco-based wine shop that sells hoagies. Needing to raise capital for a second location, they issued a $250,000 bond on SMBX at 9.5% in recent weeks. It was substantially oversubscribed. Tampon Tribe, which will pitch at SuperCrowd23 this week, is raising $250,000 on SMBX, too. Owned by two women, Tampon Tribe is producing organic feminine hygiene products that are healthier for their customers.The SMBX business model is working well. Many investors are now returning to reinvest because of the economics. Ben calls them “return-focused investors.” He sees another group forming; he calls them “ethicists.”There is a certain type of business that stands for a certain type of product that we would not list on our marketplace. But you see businesses like Tampon Tribe that do stand for what we believe in, for healthy living, for high-quality products that add value to people's lives, that make them healthier, that are sustainable, that do good for the folks who are using the products. I would call those people ethicists, that type of investor investing in a world that they want to support with their unused money.In addition to being “stubborn”—let's call it tenacious—Ben has developed a unique ability to create recombinant products and ideas, drawing on ideas from disparate fields.How to Develop Recombinant Creation As a SuperpowerBen, with help from his co-founders, saw three disconnected ideas and combined them to create something new.In one corner of this triangle, they saw the JOBS Act created a new market for publicly selling securities in private companies. In the second corner, they saw a well-developed bond market for big companies. In a third, they saw conventional small business lending.By seeing the intersection of these three components, they created the recombinant small business bond marketplace.Ben offers two insights for developing this ability.“Rely on what you know, and then you want to take in some other input that is from outside that field,” he says. “Some of the greatest innovations in music that have been made from bringing something that really didn't belong within that musical genre into it. And boom, a new style of music was born.”So, he suggests “filling 20 or 30 percent of your brain inputs from things that don't belong in the field you're trying to operate in.”By following Ben's example and his advice, you can make recombinant creation a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Guest-Provided ProfileBenjamin Lozano (he/him):Co-Founder and CEO, SMBXAbout SMBX: SMBX is a financial marketplace that connects qualified small business owners with investors in their community and throughout the country.

I Could Never Do That

I Could Never Do That

Being a female in a male dominant space may be rare, but Shannon O'Grady handles it like a boss because, as COO and Chief Product Officer at Gnarly Nutrition, she IS one of the bosses.  As CPO, it is her science and research that are the brains behind every new product development at this company. When Shannon was just a teenager, she had to give up her early passion for running because of a genital heart defect. At the time, medicine didn't have the technology and procedures it does today, so she was essentially told to quit running and pursue something else.  So, Shannon turned to her other passion - SCIENCE. This led her down years of academia, where she pursued and completed her Ph.D. in Nutritional Physiology. She always dreamed of working for a sports nutrition company and, after years of letter writing, and knocking on doors, she landed her dream gig at Gnarly.   Admirably, Shannon later came back to endurance sports and became an avid and accomplished cyclist, triathlete, climber, trail runner…all the things! Today, she is most passionate about the sport and discipline of jiu-jitsu, where she is a brown belt. You'll hear a lot about how products are developed at Gnarly and how important it is to know and understand your body's needs in training and racing, but it is her advice and tips for success in life and business that I admire and appreciate most.    https://gognarly.com/    "I Could Never Do That" Website - https://www.podpage.com/icouldneverdothat/  "I Could Never Do That" Instagram - @icouldneverdothat Theme Music: Your Love by Atch -License: Creative Commons License - Attribution 3.0 Unported (CC BY 3.0)  Support the Podcast through BuyMeACoffee.com - https://www.buymeacoffee.com/CarrieBarrett

Ebay's chief product officer on growing the legacy marketplace

Ebay may be decades old, but the company is still trying to iterate as if it were a startup. "We're still a work in progress, there's still a lot more that we need to change," said Eddie Garcia, eBay's chief product officer. He joined the Modern Retail Podcast this week and spoke about his priorities, and the way the marketplace landscape has evolved. Garcia is an eBay boomerang. He first started working for the company in 2003 and then left in 2014 to work at other companies like Sam's Club and Facebook. He returned a year ago to lead product, and says the focus has been on growing the platform while also maintaining a sense of community. "There still is that fundamental essence of the community experience, and that small business, or that individual connecting with another," Garcia said. Making that work across categories is also difficult. Ebay is a marketplace many people know -- but the company is trying to tailor specific areas for certain types of products. It's a difficult tightrope, Garcia said, making a platform that's both recognizable but able to offer certain features to certain types of sellers. "It's a balance," he said. "You don't want to dramatically change the experience because that can become disorienting to the shopper." There are a lot of updates on the roadmap, he said, but the focus is specifically on user experience. "We got to do more," said Garcia. "We're really proud of our progress at taking friction out of the experience for sellers and buyers, helping make search better -- creating a greater sense of trust on the platform."

Patrick Oborn (01:12): , uh, you kind of deserve it. Josh Lupresto (01:15): All right, we're talking special episode here. Uh, you know, we usually have these three part tracks where we talk about, uh, you know, perspective on the technology a supplier, and then really get the partners purview on it. Today we're talking about how to 10 x sales. Um, we get a lot of these questions from partners, A lot of tips, a lot of tricks. I feel like we could pack this into 50 episodes, right? And who knows, we might. Uh, but today we're gonna boil it down from your perspective. We're gonna run through some of the normal stuff, but then we're gonna spice it up with, with some of your input, which I'd love, cuz you've got so much passion and energy and good stuff to share in this. So, as we always do, when we kick these off, let's talk about your background, your path to starting to Telarus. And I want to hear anything good and anything bad, and anything I don't already know. Patrick Oborn (01:59): Fantastic. Well, when I was growing up as a teenager, my dad owned his own business. He was a part of a three-way partnership. It was called OTA Physical Therapy, obo, TrackMan Aston. They had 15 locations across Southern California and they had a really, really nice business. Um, he later on in, in development of the business, he kind of got out of sorts with, uh, his partners and stuff, and basically was telling, telling me, Patrick, whatever you do, don't start your own company. It's a pain, it's a hassle. There's stress. The employees are always the first to get paid. The business owner's always the last to get paid. There's risk and, and you know, God forbid something doesn't go right with your partners, it's a, it's a total train wreck. So just go to college, get a good job, save up for retirement, live a good life. Patrick Oborn (02:41): That was his advice to me. So I I, I did that thing. I, I went to college. I studied, I was a math and engineer geek. Um, I had, I had interned a few summers in my dad's physical therapy offices. So when I went to college, I kind of thought I was going pre-med or something like that cuz both my parents are physical therapist. Um,

In this podcast episode, Alistair Longman from Ranmarine Technology joins hosts Marco Ciappelli and Sean Martin to discuss their innovative solution for cleaning waterways using robots called "WasteSharks." Inspired by whale sharks, these devices can be either autonomous or remote-controlled and are designed to collect floating trash in coastal areas, lakes, and rivers before it enters the ocean.Alistair Longman acknowledges the challenges of raising awareness and funding for cleanup services, as they are often seen as a "grudge purchase." However, he remains optimistic about the potential of these technologies to scale and make a significant environmental impact. He also emphasizes that the WasteSharks are designed to be unobtrusive and able to reach difficult areas that larger cleaning boats cannot access.During the conversation, Sean Martin asks about the role of data collection and analysis in addressing the waste problem. Alistair notes that as the number of WasteSharks increases, the ability to collect data on trash accumulation, type, and location will become more valuable. This information will help inform more efficient and targeted waste collection strategies. Additionally, the team at Ranmarine Technology is working on developing AI for image recognition of trash, although it is still challenging.Marco Ciappelli wonders about the replicability of the WasteShark technology and its potential applications in other areas, such as oil spills or city trash management. Alistair explains that they are working on scaling the solution and developing docking stations and larger format vessels to tackle a broader scope of waste problems.Looking to the future, Alistair envisions a time when multiple WasteSharks will be able to communicate with each other in real-time to optimize their operations, making our waterways cleaner and healthier.Take advantage of this fascinating dive into the world of WasteSharks and their quest to keep our waterways pristine and free from trash and debris.Don't waste any more time—tune in to this episode and let the wave of innovation sweep you away!Note: This story contains promotional content. Learn more.Guest: Alistair Longman, CTO and Chief Product Officer, Ranmarine Technology [@RanMarineTech]On Linkedin | https://www.linkedin.com/in/alistair-longman-37a7b41/On Twitter | https://twitter.com/alistairlongmanOn Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/alongman/ResourcesLearn more about Ranmarine and their WasteShark offering: https://itspm.ag/ranmarine-technology-xb52Lear how autonomous vessels can be use for monitoring and clearing waterways: https://itspm.ag/ranmarredrRanmarine On Linkedin | https://www.linkedin.com/company/ranmarine/Ranmarine On Twitter | https://twitter.com/RanMarineTechRanmarine On Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/RanMarineTechnologyAre you interested in telling your story?https://www.itspmagazine.com/telling-your-story____________________________To see and hear more Redefining Society stories on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-society-podcastWatch the video version on-demand on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnYu0psdcllR-1tkRvr1pr_3bRruZZgfZ
