Good morning from Pharma Daily: the podcast that brings you the most important developments in the pharmaceutical and biotech world. In the ever-dynamic landscape of these industries, recent advancements have underscored both the scientific ingenuity and strategic foresight shaping patient care today.Pfizer has unveiled promising clinical trial data for Tukysa, indicating its potential as a first-line maintenance therapy in HER2-positive breast cancer. This development suggests that Tukysa could delay disease progression, offering patients extended survival prospects and an improved quality of life. Additionally, Pfizer's recent licensing agreement with Yaopharma for YP05002—a small molecule GLP-1 agonist currently in Phase 1 trials aimed at obesity treatment—highlights their strategic push into the rapidly evolving obesity treatment market.Meanwhile, Fondazione Telethon, an Italian nonprofit organization, has achieved a significant milestone with FDA approval for Waskyra—the first gene therapy for Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome. This ex vivo gene therapy directly targets the genetic roots of this rare disease, shifting treatment from symptomatic management to addressing underlying causes. This approval is transformative not only for patients suffering from this condition but also for the broader field of gene therapies, heralding a new era in treating rare genetic disorders.On the strategic front, Eli Lilly's decision to establish a $6 billion active pharmaceutical ingredient manufacturing facility in Huntsville, Alabama, marks a pivotal investment in U.S. manufacturing capabilities. This site will be critical in producing APIs for small molecule and peptide medicines, a testament to Lilly's commitment to meeting growing therapeutic demands while bolstering domestic production resilience—a trend gaining momentum across the industry. In oncology, Eli Lilly's Jaypirca demonstrated an impressive reduction in disease progression during Phase 3 trials for chronic lymphocytic leukemia.Biocon's acquisition of Viatris' stake in their biosimilar subsidiary exemplifies the shifting dynamics within the biosimilars market. This move allows Biocon to consolidate its market position as biosimilars gain traction as cost-effective alternatives to branded biologics. Such strategic realignments are indicative of competitive maneuvering aimed at capturing greater market share and driving down healthcare costs.Roche has made strides with compelling results from its Phase 3 trial of giredestrant, an oral selective estrogen receptor degrader showing a 30% reduction in risk for invasive breast cancer recurrence or death. The significance of this development lies in offering an oral alternative to injectable treatments, potentially improving patient adherence and reshaping standard care protocols for hormone receptor-positive breast cancer. Furthermore, Roche has achieved another regulatory milestone with its monoclonal antibody Gazyvaro gaining EU approval for treating lupus nephritis following successful Phase 3 trials.Innovation continues unabated as Formation Bio forms a new subsidiary through a $605 million deal with Lynk Pharmaceuticals. By securing rights to a next-generation immunology asset, Formation Bio positions itself at the forefront of immunological research developments. Concurrently, BioNTech and Bristol Myers Squibb have reported positive results from Phase 2 trials of Pumitamig for triple-negative breast cancer—validating bispecific antibodies' efficacy within oncology.Collaborative efforts are also reshaping industry landscapes. Bora and Corealis have partnered to create an end-to-end contract development and manufacturing organization for oral solid dose drug development. This collaboration aims to streamline processes and provide scalable solutions through a single contracting source, reflecting a shift towards integrated service models that enhance efficiencySupport the show

On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with Erin Groh, Head of Marketing at iSeatz, a leading but often behind-the-scenes travel tech company powering loyalty programs for brands like American Express, IHG Hotels & Resorts, and Qantas. Erin shares her fascinating career journey from traditional and digital media through to travel technology, illustrating how influencer marketing, social media, and travel tech are now converging to reshape the modern travel experience. Listeners will find out why today's travelers are prioritizing dream trips—even if it means rebalancing their budgets, how social media now influences every step of the travel decision-making funnel, and the evolving expectations around personalization, including what travelers are willing to share for better experiences. What You Will Learn in This Episode: How iSeatz powers major brands like American Express and Delta's travel loyalty programs What the iSeatz Modern Traveler Report reveals about travelers' motivations and how budget constraints impact trip decisions How travelers are rebalancing their spending, cutting back on dining and shopping in favor of travel experiences Why social media and influencer marketing have become leading sources of travel inspiration and purchase decisions, especially among Gen Z and Millennials What "value" really means to today's travelers, and how expectations for personalization in travel are evolving How sustainability is shaping travel choices and what the industry can do to make sustainable options easier for consumers Technology-Powered Loyalty Programs Most travelers may not recognize iSeatz by name, but they've likely interacted with its technology. Erin explains how iSeatz works behind the scenes with iconic brands like American Express, Delta, and IHG Hotels and Resorts, powering the platforms that make booking and redeeming travel rewards seamless. As the connectivity layer, iSeatz enables partnerships, keeps loyalty programs fresh, and continually adapts to new technologies and consumer expectations. Collaborative relationships between travel brands and tech providers aren't just helpful, they're essential, especially when consumer demands and industry dynamics are rapidly evolving. Today's travelers expect fluid, rewarding experiences, and companies have to innovate to keep pace. Dream Trips Are Non-Negotiable One of the most striking findings of The iSeatz Modern Traveler Report is the traveler's commitment to making dream trips happen—even when budgets are tight. According to Erin, only 9% of survey respondents said they'd give up on a dream trip due to cost. Instead, the majority would wait and save, seek more affordable options, or cut back in other areas of their spending. This aligns with a broader trend, post-pandemic revenge travel wasn't just a blip; it's part of a sustained shift toward prioritizing experiences over material goods. Spending priorities have also evolved, travelers would rather cut back on dining out or shopping if it means affording a meaningful trip. Data shows year-over-year growth in travel spending for several consecutive years. The desire for shared memories and adventure continues to outweigh the allure of consumer goods. Value and Personalization Define the Modern Experience Price isn't always the most important thing when it comes to travel, value now encompasses the entire experience—meeting expectations, comfort, relaxation, wellness, and safety. Travelers increasingly splurge on nicer hotels or premium flight experiences if they perceive real value in the investment. Over half of travelers expect brands to anticipate their needs based on past interactions, and a similar proportion are willing to share more personal data to enable a smoother, more tailored journey. The challenge (and opportunity) lies in connecting the dots by using the right data to surface relevant recommendations, like family-friendly activities, sustainable options, or dietary preferences, rather than missing the mark with generic suggestions.

Send us a textDr. Jeffrey Gould and Dr. David Stevenson recount founding California Perinatal Quality Care Collaborative (CPQCC) in the mid-1990s, transforming California's fragmented perinatal care system. Initial success required organizational development expertise—not just databases—to transform stakeholders into partners by identifying mutual value. They created California Association of Neonatology, secured Packard Foundation support, and unified competing academic centers and private practitioners. CPQCC's disciplined approach—pods meeting biweekly, shared data, non-hierarchical teams—contributed to California achieving the nation's lowest maternal mortality while national rates climb. Gould emphasizes quality improvement as structural intervention building relationships and improving working conditions. For aspiring leaders, they advise: identify what teams value, use data to reveal challenges, build consensus around shared goals.

pWotD Episode 3142: Sean Combs Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 168,530 views on Monday, 8 December 2025 our article of the day is Sean Combs.Sean John Combs (born November 4, 1969), known professionally as Diddy (formerly Puff Daddy and P. Diddy), is an American former rapper, record producer, and record executive. Born in Harlem, Combs worked as a talent director at Uptown Records before founding his own record label, Bad Boy Records, in 1993. He is credited with the discovery and development of musical artists such as the Notorious B. I. G., Mary J. Blige, and Usher, among others.Combs's debut studio album, No Way Out (1997), peaked atop the Billboard 200 and sold over 7 million copies in the US. Two of its singles, "Can't Nobody Hold Me Down" and "I'll Be Missing You", topped the Billboard Hot 100—the latter was the first hip-hop song to debut atop the chart. With his guest appearance on "Mo Money Mo Problems", Combs became the first solo artist to replace himself atop the chart. His second and third albums, Forever (1999) and The Saga Continues... (2001), both peaked at number two in the US. Collaborative singles "Bump, Bump, Bump" (2002) and "Shake Ya Tailfeather" (2003) made him the first rapper with five US number-one singles. Following the release of his US chart-topping fourth album Press Play (2006), Combs formed the musical trio Diddy – Dirty Money with R&B singers Kalenna Harper and Dawn Richard to release the collaborative album Last Train to Paris (2010). He independently released his fifth album, The Love Album: Off the Grid, in 2023.One of the world's wealthiest musical artists, Combs topped Forbes annual hip-hop rich list in 2014 and 2017. His accolades include three Grammy Awards, three BET Awards and two MTV Video Music Awards. He has worked as a producer for other media, including the reality television series Making the Band, and he starred in the films Made, Monster's Ball (both 2001) and Get Him to the Greek (2010). Combs launched the clothing retailer Sean John in 1998, for which he won Menswear Designer of the Year from the Council of Fashion Designers of America in 2004, having previously been nominated in 2000. He served as brand ambassador for the liquor brand Cîroc from 2007 to 2023, and co-founded the digital television network Revolt in 2013. In 2008, Combs became the first male rapper to get a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.In late 2023, Combs settled a high-profile sexual assault and abuse lawsuit filed by his former partner Cassie Ventura. Numerous lawsuits regarding sexual misconduct were filed in the following months, with several claimants alleging sexual assault and abuse by Combs between 1991 and 2009. In March 2024, several of Combs's properties were raided by the Department of Homeland Security, and that September he was charged with federal sex trafficking, transportation to engage in prostitution, and racketeering. He pled not guilty and was denied bail three times. His trial began on May 5, 2025; on July 2, he was found guilty of transportation to engage in prostitution, but not guilty on racketeering and sex trafficking charges. As of October 2025, he is incarcerated at the Federal Correctional Institution, Fort Dix. On October 3, 2025, Combs was sentenced to 50 months in prison with credit for 12 months time served.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 02:34 UTC on Tuesday, 9 December 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Sean Combs on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Kimberly.

In this episode of the People Performance Podcast, T2 consultants James Cooper and Spencer Locker, deep-dive into leadership styles based on the situational leadership model used by T2. The key takeaway is that effective leaders must be able to adapt and deploy the most appropriate leadership style for a given situation and the mindset of the person they are leading, rather than relying on a single, default style.The six leadership styles discussed are:Visionary : Getting people behind the long-term dream or "flag on the hill". It sells the why without giving day-to-day steps. Deploying it inappropriately can be ineffective if people are missing strategy or need immediate answers.Amiable : Focuses on peace, harmony, and promoting trust within the team and environment (psychological safety). Coaching : Utilising coach-like skills for development and improvement. It involves helping people find their own ways to address strengths and weaknesses. It is deployed when people are open to development but may not be performing as desired.Collaborative : Proactively bringing people together to be inclusive and involve them in decision-making, especially in newly established but knowledgeable teams. This style can establish a collaborative culture where the leader may eventually step back to be just the decision-maker.Pace Setting : Setting high standards and moving at pace, but only when appropriate and with competent people. It should not be mistaken for micromanaging; it is about providing high-quality intelligence and giving people the freedom to apply themselves. It is used to challenge and push people beyond competency to avoid complacency.Directive : Characterised by a lack of ambiguity and absolute clarity, not aggression or confrontation. It's a "call to action" and is appropriate in critical situations, like emergency services, where clear instructions are paramount. In a performance context, it gives a clear choice with consequences for growth or further conversation.Social Links Instagram – ⁠https://www.instagram.com/peopleperformancepodcast/⁠LinkedIn – ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/company/t2-thepeopleperformancepeople⁠TikTok – ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@peopleperformancepod⁠

more:fluentfiction.com/sv/episode/2025-12-05-08-38-20-sv Story Transcript:Sv: Mitt i den pulserande staden, känd som High-Tech City, fanns en speciell atmosfär under vinterns kyla.En: In the middle of the bustling city, known as High-Tech City, there was a special atmosphere during the winter's chill.Sv: Skyskraporna glimmade i ljuset av neon och futuristiska konstruktioner.En: The skyscrapers glimmered in the light of neon and futuristic constructions.Sv: Julbelysningen höll gatorna varma och inbjudande, trots snö som föll försiktigt från himlen.En: The Christmas lights kept the streets warm and inviting, despite snow gently falling from the sky.Sv: Elinor, en skicklig programmerare, satt sorgset vid sitt skrivbord.En: Elinor, a skilled programmer, sat sadly at her desk.Sv: Hennes banbrytande AI-projekt, hennes troliga biljett till den internationella teknikmässan, hade blivit stulen.En: Her groundbreaking AI project, her likely ticket to the international technology fair, had been stolen.Sv: Ritningen, hjärtat av hennes arbete, var borta.En: The blueprint, the heart of her work, was gone.Sv: Med julens granar som mjuknande omgivning, vände sig Elinor till sina kollegor.En: With the Christmas trees as a softening backdrop, Elinor turned to her colleagues.Sv: Viktor, hennes stödjande men ibland skeptiska medarbetare, var alltid där med ett uppmuntrande ord.En: Viktor, her supportive yet sometimes skeptical coworker, was always there with encouraging words.Sv: Ändå kände hon hans hemliga ambitioner bubbla under ytan.En: Yet, she felt his secret ambitions bubbling beneath the surface.Sv: Lars, en ung och ivrig praktikant, hade visat exceptionell talang för digitalt detektivarbete.En: Lars, a young and eager intern, had shown exceptional talent for digital detective work.Sv: Elinor insåg att hon behövde deras hjälp.En: Elinor realized she needed their help.Sv: "Tiden är knapp", sade Elinor, hennes röst nästan viskande av frustration och oro.En: "Time is short," said Elinor, her voice almost a whisper of frustration and worry.Sv: "Vi måste återfinna min ritning innan teknikmässan."En: "We must retrieve my blueprint before the tech fair."Sv: Viktor tittade på henne med en blandning av tvekan och beslutsamhet.En: Viktor looked at her with a mix of hesitation and determination.Sv: "Vi finner det", lovade han.En: "We'll find it," he promised.Sv: Men något i hans blick verkade hemlighetsfullt.En: But something in his gaze seemed secretive.Sv: Timmar förflöt, tekniska enheter pingade och dataskärmar svepte ljus över rummet.En: Hours passed, technical devices pinged, and computer screens swept light across the room.Sv: Lars, med sina snabba fingrar och nyfiken blick, lyckades spåra en digital ledtråd.En: Lars, with his quick fingers and curious eyes, managed to track down a digital clue.Sv: Ledtråden pekade mot en server, och snart fann de bevis som band Viktor till ritningens försvinnande.En: The clue pointed to a server, and soon they found evidence linking Viktor to the blueprint's disappearance.Sv: En kall vind blåste utanför fönstren när Elinor, Viktor och Lars såg på varandra i tystnad.En: A cold wind blew outside the windows as Elinor, Viktor, and Lars looked at each other in silence.Sv: "Viktor," började Elinor varsamt.En: "Viktor," began Elinor gently.Sv: "Varför?"En: "Why?"Sv: Viktor sänkte blicken.En: Viktor lowered his gaze.Sv: "Jag har arbetat på en liknande AI.En: "I've been working on a similar AI.Sv: Jag var desperat att se om dina idéer kunde hjälpa mig."En: I was desperate to see if your ideas could help me."Sv: Medan spänningen vilade tung i rummet, gjorde Elinor ett oväntat val.En: While the tension lay heavy in the room, Elinor made an unexpected choice.Sv: Istället för att rapportera

Do you give your players much of a chance to collaborate on the storytelling? No? Well, you wouldn't be alone! In this episode, Tanner discusses some ideas for introducing collaboration into your D&D party so you can ramp up the storytelling AND player engagement!

In this conversation, Harper breaks down why some people thrive in collaborative environments while others resist—and it's not what you think. He explains the collaborative operating system he teaches, why ownership and alignment matter more than motivation, and how your emotional state as a leader impacts everyone around you. You'll learn practical techniques from the HeartMath Institute for regulating your emotions in real time, why resistance often shows up as disengagement, and how to create psychological safety through simple processes like council questions. This episode goes beyond surface-level collaboration tips. Harper shares the science behind why depleting emotions like anger and frustration literally vibrate outward and create incoherence in your team—and what to do about it. Whether you're struggling to get buy-in from your team, feeling burnt out from carrying everyone's stress, or wondering why collaboration initiatives keep failing, this conversation will shift how you think about leadership entirely. If you're ready to move beyond traditional leadership advice and tap into the energetic and emotional foundations that make teams work, this episode is for you. Harper reminds us that leadership starts with self-awareness—and that you're already doing your best, even when it doesn't feel like enough. Think collaboration is just about communication? Harper Ray Wagner explains why individual coherence—the sync between your heart and brain—is the missing piece in building teams that actually work together. Learn the ownership-alignment framework that drives buy-in, HeartMath techniques to regulate emotions in real time, and why your emotional state as a leader is literally contagious.

Giving Tuesday has become a global moment to celebrate generosity. But for believers, it can be much more than a once-a-year opportunity to give. It can become a catalyst to cultivate a lifestyle of intentional, joy-filled stewardship all year long.Today, we explore how to give with both heart and wisdom—so that our generosity reflects God's purposes, not merely the moment. Joining the conversation is Al Mueller, founder and CEO of Excellence in Giving and former executive with Morgan Stanley and UBS.Beyond the Moment: What Giving Tuesday Really RepresentsFor Al Mueller, Giving Tuesday is more than a charitable trend—it's an invitation.“Giving Tuesday is a great opportunity to begin acting on generosity,” he says, “but it's also a moment to pause and align with God's purposes.” Al reminds us of Paul's words in 2 Corinthians 9:7: “Each one must give as he has decided in his heart… for God loves a cheerful giver.”In other words, generosity is more than an impulse. It is an act of worship. Giving Tuesday can be a spark, but intentional stewardship is the flame that keeps burning throughout the year.Al summarizes biblical giving with a simple idea: “God gave us both a head and a heart—He didn't say pick one.”Wise stewardship holds both together:The heart expresses compassion, joy, and worship.The head evaluates impact, effectiveness, and alignment with God's purposes.Stewardship looks at the Kingdom outcomes we long to see and asks how we can best contribute to them. Some giving is planned, some spontaneous—but all of it can be intentional.Helping Donors Give With ExcellenceAt Excellence in Giving, Al and his team equip high-capacity givers—often those giving $1 million or more annually—to make well-informed, impactful decisions. They offer research, due diligence, and accountability that help donors shift from reactive to proactive giving.But these principles, Al emphasizes, are not reserved for the ultra-wealthy.“Everyone can do their own homework,” he says. “Everyone can ask good questions. Everyone can give intentionally.”Whether you're giving $50 or $50,000, evaluating ministries wisely matters. Al recommends starting with three core questions:What problem is the ministry trying to solve?What do they believe is the root cause of that problem?What measurable results have they seen?Healthy ministries provide clear reporting, measurable outcomes, and transparent leadership. They welcome questions and view accountability as part of discipleship.Key indicators to review include:Leadership stabilityDonor and staff retentionClear communicationTransparent financial practicesEvidence of life changeStrong ministries don't hide their results—they celebrate them.Red Flags: When to Think TwiceJust as there are markers of strong ministries, there are warning signs that should prompt caution:Vague vision without a clear planEmotional pressure or over-spiritualizing resultsLack of reporting or unwillingness to share outcomesOver-dependence on a single donorRepeated urgent appeals for fundsAl calls vague visions “ministry hallucinations”—dreams without blueprints. Just as you wouldn't build a house without plans, you shouldn't fund ministry without clarity.A Growing Trend: Collaborative GivingOne of the most exciting developments in philanthropy today is collaborative giving—donors pooling resources to make a larger, more strategic impact.Pooling resources:Helps ministries secure larger grantsReduces duplicationSaves ministries' valuable timeStrengthens unity within the body of Christ“This model lets donors and ministries accomplish something bigger together,” Al explains.No donor wants to micromanage, and no ministry seeks to be controlled. But accountability doesn't mean control—it means clarity.Al puts it this way: “Accountability is information given, not control taken.”Trust grows when ministries offer clear plans, measurable results, and honest reporting—what Al calls “a form of blessing” to donors.The Next Generation of GiversYounger donors give differently than their parents do. They are:More global in perspectiveMore results-orientedMore experiential—they want site visits and direct engagementMotivated by conviction rather than obligationPassionate about transparency and impactAl believes this next generation will reshape Christian generosity—mainly as significant wealth transfers occur in the coming decades.Al concludes with a powerful insight: there is a meaningful difference between being generous and being a steward.In the first century, a steward managed the household, finances, and fields on behalf of the master. The steward's job was simple: to know the heart of the master and act accordingly.Stewardship today means:Recognizing God owns it allSeeking His desires for His resourcesGiving with discernmentAiming to hear, “Well done, good and faithful servant.”Generosity is beautiful—but stewardship is a calling.Growing in Intentional GenerosityWhether you're giving on Giving Tuesday or cultivating lifelong generosity, the call is the same: give with joy, wisdom, and purpose.If you want to explore tools to help you give more strategically, you can learn more at ExcellenceInGiving.com.

Welcome to the Thousand Stories podcast, the Renaissance Series. Hosted by Justin Brown, former Secretary of Human Services in the state of Oklahoma, and Luke Williams, this series marks a true rebirth for Health and Human Services. While the original podcast shared incredible untold stories happening in Health and Human Services beyond the negative headlines, the Renaissance Series is now stepping into a new era of innovation and transformation. We are moving toward a more connected, human-centered, and innovative future by exploring how leaders, researchers, and practitioners are building systems that truly serve people.In this specific episode, the hosts are joined by Mike Leech (former State Director for the South Carolina Department of Social Services) and Samantha Galloway (former Interim Director at the Department of Human Services in Oklahoma) to discuss the impact and influence of class action lawsuits in the Health and Human Services segment.Class action lawsuits are increasing rapidly against state systems, particularly in child welfare. Too often, these cases become lengthy and adversarial, and resulting settlement agreements can be complex and challenging to operationalize, contributing to extended oversight and uneven progress.This conversation explores a more collaborative and sustainable path. The guests and hosts examine methods for bringing plaintiffs' counsel and state leaders into informed, good-faith dialogue earlier, including pre-litigation conversations and mediation. The aim is to build shared facts and shape durable commitments that agencies can deliver, ensuring improvements are meaningful and long-lasting.Discover why culture is key to sustaining reform, and the importance of building a system with trust and transparency—both with external monitors and internally with staff. The discussion emphasizes moving past being "paralyzed in the fear" of litigation to drive change today, accelerating improvement, and building a self-correcting system that utilizes technology to move beyond outdated processes. Ultimately, this episode explores how aligning on a shared vision can reduce conflict and move more resources toward serving children and families

What are the core habits of highly collaborative teams?Since Google's Project Aristotle, we've understood that high-performing teams are defined by how they interact, not by who is on them. For today's diverse, multigenerational, and decentralized workforce, supporting healthy interactions requires a strong commitment to specific strategies: the selection of accessible tools and technologies, clear methods to depersonalize conflict, and strong awareness of cognitive biases like “groupthink” and “risky shift.” By integrating these practical and relational strategies, teams can ensure diverse ideas are truly heard and valued.On this episode of Just One Q, Dominique chats with guest Jennifer Porritt, the founder and principal consultant of JP Consulting. Jenn is a human resources and training professional with more than 25 years experience helping leaders evolve and grow to support successful organizations. They discuss the core habits and strategies of highly collaborative teams, exploring the importance of psychological safety, managing constructive conflict, avoiding “groupthink,” and more.Keep Up with Jennifer:https://jp-consulting.ca/Try Learning Snippets:https://dialectic.solutions/signupContact Us to Be a Guest on Just One Q:https://dialectic.solutions/podcast-guest

The four key domains of effective well-being programs: mental health, individual strategies, leadership culture, and work design. Why physician coaching and AI tools are among the most exciting advancements for reducing burnout. Practical advice for medical students and early-career physicians on how to choose a workplace that will support their well-being.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Yusuf sits down with international best selling author and publishing mentor L.S. Kirkpatrick to get real about the invisible cost of entrepreneurship. Not the funnels or the hustle. The self doubt. They unpack what happens when your vision board comes down, the money is slow, and you start questioning your worth as a founder, creator or writer. L.S. shares how she went from stay at home grandmother to 22 time award winning author and publisher in just three years, why comparison to “ten year overnight successes” quietly kills momentum, and how to use your story as an asset instead of a wound. If you are building a business, writing a book or turning life experience into impact, this conversation will help you reset your metrics for success and remember that you are the most valuable asset in your brand. About the Guest: L.S. Kirkpatrick is an international best selling and 22 time award winning author, publisher and inspirational speaker. She helps women aged 40 to 65 reclaim their voice and purpose by turning real life experience into books, talks and legacy projects. In just three years she has contributed to or published 47 books, including her own 35 Day Journal and multiple collaborative “Giving Book” volumes. As founder of Wisdom On The Frontporch, a podcast and magazine, L.S. mentors purpose driven entrepreneurs who are ready to share their story without losing themselves in the process. Her work centres on self worth, storytelling and practical business skills for late blooming leaders. Key Takeaways: Self doubt is part of the entrepreneurial journey, not proof that you are failing. You can pause to reassess without quitting on your business. Stop comparing your year one to someone else's year ten. Context matters and most “overnight success” stories hide a long runway of learning. Your story does not have to be graphic to be powerful. You can share lessons, choices and patterns without retraumatising yourself or your audience. Service first is a better strategy than chasing money. Focus on helping people get results and financial growth tends to follow over time. Collaborative books and anthologies are a low risk way to test your message, build credibility and see if authorship fits your long term vision. Give yourself grace in the messy middle. You already have a one hundred percent track record of surviving hard days, and that resilience is part of your brand equity. How To Connect With L.S. Kirkpatrick  : Listeners can connect with L.S. and explore her books, collaborative projects and mentoring via: Website. https://lskirkpatrick.com Podcast and magazine https://www.wisdomonthefrontporch.com/ Social media: Search for L.S.

In this episode, we are joined by Amy Niemczyk, a parent (just like you!) whose family dynamic has drastically shifted since adopting the non-coercive, collaborative parenting philosophy. This is an excellent episode for parents who are searching for concrete tools for navigating kids' physical expression (like biting) and resolving sibling struggles.Amy and her partner are the parents to four young children who have been on this journey for just over three years. Amy shares how she struggled with letting go of screen time control as her seven year old autonomously navigated balance, and how she turned toward love and not shame to work through weeks of her three year old pinching her. Her stories go deeper than the parent-child dynamic, seeping into the sibling relationships as well. Rythea and Cara are moved by Amy's earnest and heart-felt admission of the changes she's experienced with her children: how removing authority from her parenting paradigm revealed a deep love both with her children and within herself.

When Ian Scott and Kirsty McHugh – curators at the National Library of Scotland – created an exhibition on pen names, they never imagined it would become a book. But that’s exactly what happened, and in this episode, Ian joins to discuss some of the curious motivations and stories behind some of the world’s most famous and infamous pseudonyms in their book Pen Names – including examples of authors who fully immersed themselves in their imaginary personas! 00:00 Welcome00:18 Rewriting your personal narrative07:06 Writing tip: Tracking your time10:05 WIN!: The Funeral Crashers by Joanna Nell13:33 Word of the week: ‘Edentulous’14:14 The world of words: Short forms of ‘until’16:10 Writer in residence: Ian Scott16:57 The inspiration for the book Pen Names18:42 An exhibition on pen names23:00 The stories behind the stories27:00 Common reasons for pen names27:58 Gender bias in literature31:55 Other reasons for not using your own name32:10 Famous examples34:55 Authors wanting to be judged independently38:47 Deceptive use of a pen name: Fiona Macleod40:55 Modern pen names and marketability43:19 Collaborative writing under one name45:01 Authors like Lee Child and book cover real estate46:49 Would Ian choose a pen name for himself?48:45 Wait – is his co-writer Kirsty McHugh even real?50:30 Is his book in his own library?53:02 Final thoughts Read the show notes Connect with Valerie and listeners in the podcast community on Facebook Visit WritersCentre.com.au | ValerieKhoo.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Randy Leavitt.As a climber who grew up in Southern California, I've been hearing this name since the very beginning of my climbing career. Collaborative inventor of the wide-crack climbing technique so aptly named “Leavittation,” developer of thousands of routes — with around a dozen graded 5.14 or harder, including Jumbo Love at Clark Mountain, the first 5.15 in the United States — and long-time athlete manager for Maxim Ropes… Randy's name has carried serious weight and inspiration for decades. A climbing legend if there ever was one.I actually remember listening to his episode on The Enormocast way back in 2012, when I was just getting started as a climber. So to now be sitting down with Randy in person, over thirteen years later, felt surreal. While Randy is best known for his achievements in the sport climbing world, the life behind the headlines tells a much broader story — one built on creativity, discipline, and a blue-collar work ethic. He found climbing young and quickly cut his teeth in Yosemite, climbing The Leaning Tower at age sixteen, The Zodiac and The Ephemeral Tis-sa-ack at seventeen, The Pacific Ocean Wall at 18, AND the first person ever to climb up — and then BASE jump off — El Capitan at just twenty. Back then, all of this was part of his bigger vision: to become a high-altitude mountaineer. But as he would discover throughout his life, his passion for business and financial independence remained just as strong, ultimately leading him toward a more balanced existence where climbing fit into a much larger picture.In our conversation, we explore Randy's 1986 expedition to the Karakoram — including summit pushes on Gasherbrum IV and The Nameless Tower. We revisit his gripping ascent of The Stratosfear in the Black Canyon; we talk about the origins of his business, the freedom it's given him, and his philosophy on route development, mentorship, and legacy. We also touch on a recent development in his health that has made climbing too painful to pursue — and how he's learning to navigate that new reality. Later, we take a deep dive into the climbing industry itself: how it really works, how athletes are chosen, and what brand support actually looks like. And finally, we reflect on how climbing culture has evolved over the decades — and why Randy believes the rise of climbing gyms has changed the sport more than anything else in history.Randy actually flew himself from San Diego to Las Vegas to do this interview in person, right here in my home studio.
