    Attempting to gain dominance over others rarely benefits everyone involved. Instead, embracing diversity as a superpower — not as a tool to enforce artificial equity, but as a genuine celebration of varied strengths and perspectives — can unlock a quiet joy. This joy comes from the natural harmony that arises when differences are valued for their unique contributions, fostering an environment where collaboration thrives organically, leading to an increase for all.To connect with an Indigenous perspective, Harvesting Happiness Podcast Host Lisa Cypers Kamen speaks with researcher, senior lecturer, and author Tyson Yunkaporta.Tyson shares wisdom gleaned from his research of indigenous cultures, perspectives, and ways of life. His humanistic approach to fearless conversations solidifies connections and aims to change the world by moving away from individualism and toward communal ideologies. In his book, Right Story, Wrong Story: How to Have Fearless Conversations in Hell, he lays the groundwork for a universal understanding and adherence to the 'law of the land'.This episode is proudly sponsored by:Quince— Offers high-quality essentials, home decor, and furnishings at radically low prices.

It's not the sophisticated EHR system you've invested in. It's not even your outcomes data—at least not initially. The first impression starts the moment someone steps through your doors, and it's rooted in an often-overlooked space: your waiting room.Or should I say, what we used to call a waiting room.Today, we're diving into why this space is far more than a holding area. It's your front door of trust, a powerful reflection of how you deliver care—and a golden opportunity to reduce anxiety, elevate patient experience, and even boost the financial health of your practice. If it looks tired or outdated, patients might unconsciously assume your care is, too. If it feels cold and transactional, it primes them to expect the same from your providers. And if it's optimized for comfort, clarity, and calm, it sets the tone for an experience and a relationship grounded in trust.Please Follow or Subscribe to get new episodes delivered to you as soon as they drop!

    In this episode of the Glowing Older podcast, host Nancy Griffin interviews Ashton Applewhite, author of 'This Chair Rocks: A Manifesto Against Ageism.' They discuss Ashton's journey into understanding ageism, the current state of awareness, the importance of policy, and the intersectionality of ageism with other social issues. Ashton introduces her initiative, YODA, aimed at fostering intergenerational connections to combat ageism. About AshtonAn internationally recognized expert on ageism, Ashton Applewhite is the author of This Chair Rocks: A Manifesto Against Ageism and a co-founder of the Old School Hub. She speaks widely at venues that have included the United Nations and the TED mainstage, and is at the forefront of the emerging movement to raise awareness of ageism and make age a criterion for diversity. In 2022 the United Nations named Ashton one of the Healthy Aging 50: fifty leaders transforming the world to be a better place to grow older.Key TakeawaysOldSchool.info is an anti-ageism clearinghouse—a central repository of tools and resources for the emerging movement against ageism.Ageism is a pervasive issue that affects all aspects of life. We are all biased, but we can control our attitudes about aging. The first step in any social change is awareness, because most bias is unconscious and we can't challenge something when we don't even know exists. Building intergenerational connections is vital for combating ageism. The YODA initiative (Youngers and Olders Dismantling Ageism) aims to connect younger and older generations as a tool to end ageism.Older people resent younger people for having more social and cultural visibility, and young people resent older people for having more political access and moreeconomic clout. Both are true.Fear divides us and people make money off fear. When people are divided, they tend to not come together to change ways of thinking or the ways institutions work.

    A deep dive into the upcoming "No Kings" protest in Spartanburg reveals what the host calls a deceptive grassroots image masking deeper ties to the Upstate South Carolina Democratic Socialists of America—and possibly beyond. With fiery rhetoric, the segment connects the event to a broader narrative of socialist infiltration, Democrat collaboration, and cartel-linked voter manipulation. From a controversial Instagram photo with Rep. Jim Clyburn to allegations of illegal immigrant-driven political schemes, the commentary builds to a national-level accusation: that recent cartel money laundering raids in L.A. struck the heart of a shadow operation funding Democrat campaigns. A hard-hitting exposé on political theater, media silence, and what the host warns could be the makings of a socialist dictatorship.

It's the starting point for a profound shift in how we deliver care, structure operations, and engage with our communities. In a healthcare system increasingly shaped by convenience, accessibility, and consumer expectations, the simple act of respecting time—your patients' time—can become the differentiator that sets your practice apart.Today, we're diving deep into the operational habits that quietly waste our patients' time, the unspoken messages we send when we do so, and how you can create a culture that flips the traditional hierarchy—putting patient experience and efficiency front and center.

While the program is self-insured, they use a third-party administrator (TPA) in a hybrid system where the TPA staff sit on-site with the UT System staff who oversee the program. Covering 160,000 employees and over 250,000 students, UT System uses a variable rating system and has set up a culture where the individual institutions within the system compete against one another to achieve superior outcomes. The results? Truly innovative and remarkable. During Melissa's tenure with the WC program, and through a system of healthy competition, they initially saw program costs of eighty cents per $100 dollars of payroll. When Melissa retired last year, it had fallen to 8.5 cents per $100 dollars of payroll. How did this happen? Melissa talks about some of the nuances of their program including an annual retreat, where the hybrid staff come together to improve communications, get focused on core program goals and learn how they could continuously improve their results. Join us as we talk to Melissa and learn how UT System achieved such amazing results.Melissa also talks about flunking out of retirement.
