Receipt of addiction treatment after nonfatal opioid overdose and risk of subsequent overdose: A retrospective cohort study Drug and Alcohol Dependence People who experience a nonfatal opioid overdose are at increased risk of subsequent overdose but is also a potential moment to intervene. In this cohort study, they used statewide data from Connecticut to assess differences in overdose outcomes in the year following a nonfatal overdose by treatment type received. Overall, 56% of patients received no treatment, while 35% received medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD) (25% buprenorphine and 11% methadone) and 21% received inpatient treatment (detox and/or extended inpatient). Both methadone (aHR=0.41) and buprenorphine (aHR=072) were associated with decrease in subsequent overdose, whereas neither detox nor prolonged inpatient treatment were associated with decreased overdose. These findings further support the importance of MOUD and the need to increase access to treatment in this high-risk population.   Read this issue of the ASAM Weekly Subscribe to the ASAM Weekly Visit ASAM

Effective practicers tend to be more motivated, empowered, and persistent, whereas less effective practicers tend to feel more helpless and lower self-efficacy.But what do they actually do differently?One of the big differences between better and worse practicers in a 2021 study was the time spent in "non-playing" practice activities. Like, those periods between the playing and repetitions where our fingers aren't moving and making sounds come out of our instruments. And what exactly is happening in those quiet moments? Get all the nerdy details  in this week's episode, with links to additional resources here if you'd like to explore this further:How Do Effective Practicers Make the Most of Their Practice Time?* * *Have you been feeling a little stuck or stagnant in the practice room? Or has performance anxiety and the gap between practice and performance been a nagging issue that hasn't changed, no matter how well you've prepared for performances, auditions - and even lessons?

"Pay Yourself First." It's become a buzzword in business…but what does it really mean?In this week's episode, we're diving into one of the biggest sources of financial stress for business owners – paying yourself. Most of us weren't taught how to handle business finances, and it creates a ton of anxiety. Am I saving enough? Doing it right? Transferring money properly?We get into:What “paying yourself first” actually looks like in practiceWhy you can't pay yourself with money the business isn't makingHow consistency is key (just like rent or your EMR)Whether to use payroll or just transfer funds directlyHow to overcome the anxiety and confusion around business financesAt the end of the day, the most important thing you can do to pay yourself well is to make the business successful. There's no revenue cap — so optimizing your caseload is the fastest way to give yourself a raise.

You're probably heard the quote "Genius is 1 percent inspiration and 99 percent perspiration."But what do you think? Both play some role of course, but which do you think is more important for achieving success - innate ability or effortful training?What would you say if I said that you might be fooling yourself? Where even if you think that you believe effort and training to be more important, deep down, you might actually favor natural ability over hard work?Are we all biased against effort without realizing it?Get all the nerdy details here:Do We Unconsciously Favor Talent Over Effort?* * *Have you been feeling a little stuck or stagnant in the practice room?

If we want AI systems that actually work in production, we need better infrastructure—not just better models. In this episode, Hugo talks with Akshay Agrawal (Marimo, ex-Google Brain, Netflix, Stanford) about why data and AI pipelines still break down at scale, and how we can fix the fundamentals: reproducibility, composability, and reliable execution. They discuss:

The federal Technology Modernization Fund has had a bumpy relationship with congressional appropriators since its creation in 2017, and now the Trump administration wants to sidestep the appropriations process entirely to replenish the fund on an annual basis with unused money transferred from agencies. The White House on Friday quietly issued an in-depth appendix of its budget request for fiscal 2026, and executive agencies followed suit, publishing their annual budget justification documents. The General Services Administration, which houses the TMF program and disburses its funds, revealed in its 2026 justification that the Trump administration did not request any “new discretionary appropriated funding for the TMF” in 2026, instead proposing a new model for how it could pull money from other agencies, up to $100 million, to re-up the fund each fiscal year. “President's FY 2026 budget request includes a governmentwide general provision that will allow GSA, with approval of OMB, to collect unobligated balances of expired discretionary funds from other agencies and bring that funding into the TMF,” the justification explains. “To further strengthen the TMF's ability to help agencies kickstart or accelerate their urgent modernization efforts, GSA and OMB are committed to exploring alternative funding mechanisms.” Historically, the sitting administration has called on Congress to fund the TMF on an annual basis, with varying degrees of success. Pentagon procurement officials who are looking to up their expertise in buying cutting-edge tech for the U.S. military can now apply to join the 2026 Immersive Commercial Acquisition Program fellowship cohort, Defense Innovation Unit officials announced Tuesday. Next year will mark the fourth iteration of the educational ICAP initiative, which DIU runs in partnership with the Defense Acquisition University. This fellowship is designed to provide DOD's leading procurement professionals with hands-on experience and virtual training to help them more effectively buy in-demand commercial technologies from non-traditional military contractors. DIU's Deputy Director for Commercial Operations Liz Young McNally told DefenseScoop during a panel at the Special Competitive Studies Project's AI+ Expo. “We have other acquisition officers from across the department who can apply to the year-long fellowship with DIU — to learn our process, how we work with industry, and then bring that back to wherever they're going. And [the next ICAP application] just opened today.”If tapped for the fellowship, personnel will get a chance to work on a variety of real-world, military service-aligned projects alongside a DIU contracting officer, project team and commercial solution providers. The fellows will also gain in-depth instruction on a flexible contracting mechanism designed for rapid prototyping and acquisition of commercial tech, known as other transaction (OT) authority.

In this episode of the Better Learning Podcast, we dive deep (pun intended) into Finding Nemo - the animated adventure that's equal parts heartwarming, hilarious, and insightful. As part of our series on school-related films, we explore what this Pixar classic can tell us about the student experience, the importance of trust and independence, and how schools can support every kind of learner on their journey. Joining host Kevin Stoller is co-host Carla Cummins and special guest Brenda Swirczynski from Pfluger Architects, bringing both educational and design perspectives to the table. Together, they unpack the film's themes of overprotection, resilience, and growth — and how those same challenges show up in real-world school environments. From Marlin's struggle to let go, to Nemo's need to prove himself, the conversation begins to ask: What can educators, school leaders, and architects learn from this undersea tale? How can schools create environments where students feel safe to explore, fail, and thrive?   Takeaways: Marlin's instinct to shield Nemo from danger mirrors how schools and parents can sometimes overcorrect in the name of safety. Just as Nemo's “lucky fin” made him different — but not less capable — the conversation highlights the importance of designing spaces and systems that accommodate a wide range of learners, abilities, and personalities. From Dory's unorthodox support to the Tank Gang's teamwork, the film underscores the power of collaboration — a theme echoed in the episode's discussion around how architects, educators, and designers must work together to build student-centered spaces.   About Brenda Swirczynski Brenda is a lifelong educator with experience in a variety of educational applications. As a classroom teacher, outdoor educator, and university instructor, she has had the privilege to collaborate with varied audiences on multi-disciplinary projects. Brenda possesses expertise in designing curricula, inquiry-based learning, and educational experiences for audiences with diverse backgrounds.   Brenda received her Bachelor's degree in Education and Master's in Environmental Science from the University of North Texas. She is a graduate of Cohort 9 of the Association for Learning Environments (A4LE) Advanced Academy, earning her Learning Environment Planner (ALEP) accreditation. She continues her design work with individuals who are equally passionate about supporting educators and their students as the Educational Facilities Planner at Pfluger Architects.

If we want to make progress toward AGI, we need a clear definition of intelligence—and a way to measure it. In this episode, Hugo talks with Greg Kamradt, President of the ARC Prize Foundation, about ARC-AGI: a benchmark built on Francois Chollet's definition of intelligence as “the efficiency at which you learn new things.” Unlike most evals that focus on memorization or task completion, ARC is designed to measure generalization—and expose where today's top models fall short. They discuss:

What if your leadership style is deeply influenced by your cultural values, but you've never been taught to recognize it? How can an organization unlock hidden leadership potential across an entire community?In this episode of Associations Thrive, host Joanna Pineda interviews Linda Akutagawa, President and CEO of Leadership Education for Asian Pacifics (LEAP). Linda discusses:How LEAP was founded over 40 years ago to grow and develop leadership among the Asian and Pacific Islander (API) communities.The classic origin story: leaders sitting around a kitchen table, wondering why the same people kept showing up in leadership roles.How LEAP's signature workshop, Understanding and Leading from Your Cultural Values, helps participants recognize how culture shapes leadership styles.How Linda's own journey with LEAP began as a volunteer, and how she intentionally pursued her CEO appointment by insisting on a formal, competitive search.The tension in Linda's leadership style between the value of harmony and the need to engage in difficult conversations.LEAP's cross-sector programs for students, early career professionals, mid-career leaders, and executives in corporate, nonprofit, and higher education sectors.The national (and growing international) reach of LEAP's leadership programs.LEAP's one-on-one executive coaching model and its impressive roster of Asian American certified coaches.LEAP's annual fundraiser, the Leadership Experience and Celebration, which includes new learning and caucusing opportunities.LEAP's vision to expand globally, bringing its cultural leadership model to diasporas in Australia, Europe, and beyond.References:LEAP WebsiteLeadership Experience and Celebration

Eli Williams of Day One Agency joins the conversation to unpack findings from the agency's latest report, Gen Z: Life, Actually. The study challenges common assumptions about Gen Z and reveals a generation that's more multifaceted—and in some ways, more traditional—than many marketers assume.Through the lens of public relations and cultural insight, this episode explores how Gen Z is reshaping expectations around work, money, identity, and influence. Williams outlines three distinct cohorts within the generation and explains how their diverse values are already influencing the future of brand communication.Moderated by Fred Cook, the conversation addresses key questions, including:In what ways is Gen Z more similar to their parents than expected?How do their views on stability, risk, and tradition split across subgroups?Why does financial anxiety shape so many of their decisions?What should communicators understand about Gen Z's internal diversity?How can media literacy become a strategic asset in engaging Gen Z?Key Discussion HighlightsThe report identifies three mindsets within Gen Z:Neo-Traditionalists value stability and lean toward conservative idealsFluid Pragmatists take a cautious, balanced approach to major life decisionsInternet Age Explorers reject conventional paths in favor of experimentation and experienceMoney as a Central ConcernAcross all groups, financial uncertainty plays a central role in shaping priorities, spending, and life planning.A New Life TimelineUnlike previous generations, Gen Z is not in a hurry to pursue traditional milestones like marriage, homeownership, or long-term careers. Their timelines are fluid, self-defined, and experience-driven.The Implications for PRGen Z's complexity demands a more nuanced, culturally aware approach to communication. Understanding their values—and the differences within the generation—is key to long-term engagement.Media Literacy as a Core CompetencyGrowing up in the digital age, Gen Z is becoming increasingly adept at filtering content and questioning sources. Communicators must recognize that this generation does not take information at face value.Time markers00:00 — Understanding Gen Z: A New Perspective06:41 — The Three Cohorts of Gen Z12:09 — Fluid Pragmatists: The Middle Path17:37 — Internet Age Explorers: The Experimental Group25:18 — Navigating the Future of PR with Gen Z31:21 — Media Literacy and the Information Diet of Gen ZFind the report here:Gen Z: Life, Actually – Day One Agencyhttps://d1a.com/perspective/genz-life-actually A production of the USC Annenberg Center for Public Relations at the University of Southern California.

Digital cohort-based learning programs that combine live sessions with interactive assignments and peer collaboration are increasing in popularity especially in leadership development. This is apparent in Brandon Hall Group's recent study “Igniting the Leadership Spark.” Their Principal Analyst Matt Pittman shares his insights on the study and what's behind the growth of cohort-based approaches. Show Notes:Brandon Hall Group Principal Analyst Matt Pittman shares the best practices that make up digital cohort-based leadership development. Cohort-Based Learning Is Here to Stay: Adoption of digital cohort-based learning has jumped from 27% in 2020 to 69% in 2024, driven by the need for scalable, cost-effective leadership development in remote and hybrid environments.Technology Simplicity and Integration Are Crucial: Success hinges on a user-friendly tech stack—ideally with a single access point for learners—that integrates live sessions, asynchronous content, collaboration tools, and progress tracking.Design for Engagement, Not Just Delivery: Virtual cohorts must be structured with interactivity in mind. Tools like breakout rooms, polls, whiteboards, and gamification help enhance engagement, as long as they align with learning objectives.Facilitators Need New Skills and Support: Leading digital cohorts requires facilitators to be tech-savvy and when possible supported by producers or moderators who can manage live session logistics, ensuring smooth learner experiences.Long-Term Impact Measurement Is Essential: Beyond course completion, organizations should evaluate leadership growth by tracking outcomes like internal promotions, retention, and on-the-job performance over time.Read “Leveraging Cohort-Based Learning for Leader Development”Learn more about the Brandon Hall Group Powered by Learning earned Awards of Distinction in the Podcast/Audio and Business Podcast categories from The Communicator Awards and a Gold and Silver Davey Award.

Did you grow up being told things like "finish your plate" or "you can't have dessert until you eat your veggies"? It's quite possible that these old food rules are still controlling what you eat - even if you don't realize it.   In this episode, we're diving into how those childhood food rules have stayed with you over the years, and how they've morphed through the input from diet culture.    Even if you're technically not dieting anymore, you might still feel stuck in “no man's land” between food guilt and food freedom, and these sneaky old rules are often the reason why. I'll walk you through how to recognize these rules, why they're so hard to break, and how to start letting them go so you can finally trust yourself around food.    Episode Highlights   -They psychology of early food rules -How these rules morph in adulthood -Why this isn't fixed by ‘just listening to your body' -How to identify + let go of your childhood food rules   Today's Wellness Woo is genetic tests for diet and exercise.   Resources Mentioned   - Join the June 2025 Cohort of Stepping Off The Dieting Rollercoaster   Read the full episode show notes here.   Resources for Your Intuitive Eating Journey   Intuitive eating education on the blog Work with Katy   Connect with Katy Harvey   Website: KatyHarvey.net Instagram: @katyharvey.rd Facebook: KatyHarveyRD      Subscribe and Review   Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts   I would be thrilled if you could rate and review my podcast!

Recruiting Future is the podcast that helps Talent Acquisition teams drive measurable impact by developing strategic capability in Foresight, Influence, Talent, and Technology.  Skills shortages in emerging technologies have reached critical levels, with companies all fishing in the same tiny talent pool for experienced professionals. But if these technologies are relatively new, why assume only experienced talent can work with them?  In such fast-moving industries, how can companies develop their early career hiring strategies to ensure they get net new talent who can be productive immediately? My guest this week is Tan Moorthy, CEO of Revature. Revature is helping employers build pipelines of entry-level talent by giving high-potential hires the training and development they need to be effective from their first day. In our conversation, Tan gives us an insight into a structured approach to identifying, developing, and deploying new talent, which is transforming how organizations solve their tech talent shortages. In the interview, we discuss: Are employers looking at tech skill shortages through the wrong lens? The ABCD of in-demand skills (AI, big data, cloud, digital) AI Native entry-level talent Critical thinking and problem solving What employers get wrong about upskilling Cohorts, structure, and impact metrics Talent as a C-Suite priority The process to identify, develop, and deploy net new talent The role of technology and data Focusing humans on unique human skills What does the future look like Follow this podcast on Apple Podcasts.

Today's episode is for the woman entrepreneur, speaker, coach, author, lifestyle expert, or service professional who's craving more fun, adventure, play, and joy—while making and increasing consistent income. If you've been feeling the shift lately—like something isn't quite adding up, energetically or financially—you're not alone. Many brilliant, creative, successful women I work with are sensing it too.  This in-between space you're navigating? It's not a breakdown. It's a calling—to something deeper, more aligned, and more authentic than ever before. I want you to live and work from a blend of both Feminine & Masculine energy and traits with Feminine leading the way. It's a dynamic dance between power & play as you redesign how you operate in your business or career without neglecting your feminine self or diluting your edge.   In this elevating conversation, I introduce you to a new paradigm of success: Desires + Goals = Success + Transformation.   It's the foundation of my Creative Achievement Formula, and the core of how I've helped women reinvent how they live, work, and lead—with feminine energy leading the way. I created it out of my own serious breakdown to breakthrough. You'll hear: • How my own burnout in 2017 led to a reinvention by following my desire to Florence, Italy for a month-long stay—and how that changed everything • The reason your desires matter just as much as your goals • What happens when you prioritize pleasure, play, spirituality, and intuition as part of your business strategy • Why suppressing your feminine gifts keeps you disconnected—and how to reclaim them with joy and power • Two stories from clients who've shifted into this new way of being and are seeing powerful, life-changing results I encourage you to change the metrics you use for success. I'll also guide you through a few soul-stirring exercises to begin your own desires-led reinvention today.   This is your permission slip to redesign how you achieve success—and finally treat yourself well in the process. Because you're not stuck…You're being called.    Show Links: A 1-1 zoom call is required to be considered for the cohort. We will explore your life, business and how the cohort fits into all that and if we are a match.

"Your gifts might open doors in ministry, but your emotional health and family life will determine how long you can stay in the room."In this episode, Jason and Lauren Vallotton dive into the crucial (and often overlooked) connection between emotional health, family life, and sustainable ministry. Ministry isn't just about being gifted—it's about being grounded. Whether you're a pastor, leader, or someone pursuing a call to serve, this conversation offers a timely reminder: who you are behind closed doors matters more than what you can do on stage.

From Gladiator to Rome Total War to I, Claudius, today the Cohortēs praetōriae are one of the most distinctive military units of Imperial Rome. It was their job to protect the Roman Emperor and his household, a task for which they hold a somewhat ‘chequered' record (especially when we focus in on the Praetorian Prefects). But what do we know about this unit's origins? How did this powerful force become protectors of the Emperor and his household? What other functions did they serve? And how did they differ from the standard Roman legions in their structure?To talk through the rise of the Praetorian Guard, with a specific focus on the reigns of Augustus and Tiberius, Tristan caught up with historian Lindsay Powell at Fishbourne Roman Palace in West Sussex. Lindsay is the author of several books about the Early Roman Imperial Period. His latest book, Bar Kokhba: The Jew Who Defied Hadrian and Challenged the Might of Rome, is out now.Presented by Tristan Hughes. The producer is Joseph Knight.

Jonny Miller is the creator of Nervous System Mastery. It teaches evidence-backed protocols to cultivate calm, build resilience, and increase aliveness in 45 days. It's a five-week, cohort-based course that is just wrapping up its sixth cohort in the last three years. In those six cohorts, Jonny has served nearly 1,000 students and earned more than $800,000. Here's the best part – Jonny doesn't have a massive audience. When he launched Nervous System Mastery, he had a couple thousand followers on Twitter and a small email list. This is the magic of a well-designed Signature Product – and Jonny is the perfect example.
