How do you stay clear, calm, and precise when every word counts and there's no room for error?Staying calm and focused while translating high-stakes conversations in real time isn't just a language skill — it's a masterclass in communication under pressure. And for Giampaolo Bianchi, simultaneous interpreter for the United Nations and World Health Organization, it's a challenge he meets with presence, precision, and a whole lot of preparation. In this expanded conversation from our Spontaneous Speaking series, Bianchi offers a behind-the-scenes look at how he prepares for — and performs in — moments where being calm, in control, and adaptable are essential.“We don't translate words — we translate ideas,” Bianchi explains, highlighting the mindset shift that allows interpreters to go beyond language and convey meaning with clarity and nuance. He shares the role of rigorous preparation, physical grounding, and mental focus in his work, and explains how tools like note systems, pre-session rituals, and active listening help manage cognitive load during live interpretation.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Bianchi and host Matt Abrahams explore how the principles of simultaneous interpretation apply far beyond the booth — offering valuable strategies for anyone who needs to communicate effectively under pressure, adapt in the moment, and ensure their smartest communication happens without a script.Episode Reference Links:Giampaolo BianchiEp.197 Prep or Perish: Mastering In-the-Moment Communication (1 of 3)Ep.198 Pause and Effect: Mastering In-the-Moment Communication (2 of 3)Ep.199 Blunder Pressure: Mastering In-the-Moment Communication (3 of 3)Ep.203 No Script, No Problem: Final Secrets to Speaking Under Pressure (Bonus)   Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:42) - Becoming a UN Interpreter (03:50) - Staying Calm Under Pressure (05:03) - Translating Emotion, Not Just Words (06:10) - Memory and Focus Techniques (07:51) - The Power of Preparation (09:17) - Pre-Meeting Rituals and Readiness (10:34) - Handling Mistakes in Real Time (11:44) - Interpreter Habits in Daily Life (12:45) - The Final Three Questions (17:28) - Conclusion  *****This Episode is sponsored by Stanford.

August 6, 2025 - Season 16, Episode 6 of The Terrible Podcast is now in the can. In this Wednesday morning show, which was recorded late Tuersday night, Alex Kozora and I get right to discussing the recent hand injury suffered by Pittsburgh Steelers rookie QB Will Howard. We discuss the probability that Howard will miss all of the preseason and how the team might add another quarterback to the roster on Wednesday because of that. After wallowing in the Howard injury news quite a bit. Alex and I then discuss the health of the rest of the roster heading into Wednesday's training camp practice. We also go over other roster-related news that includes one recent transaction that the Steelers made. The Steelers released their first depth chart of the 2025 offseason on Tuesday, so Alex and I go over what is right and wrong with it ahead of the team's first preseason game on Saturday night. Alex and I look ahead a little bit to the first preseason game on Saturday against the Jacksonville Jaguars and that includes us going over training camp performances of several players on the roster. HC Mike Tomlin spoke to the media after the team's Tuesday training camp practice, so we recap that short press conference during this show. Later in this show, Alex and I discuss Steelers OLB T.J. Watt wanting to switch sides more in 2025 and if DT Cameron Heyward should think about doing the same. This 66-minute episode also discusses several other minor topics not noted in the recap, and we make sure to answer a few listener questions at the very end. steelersdepot.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Are you ready to awaken the power of relationships in your life? In his compelling sermon, Pastor Jamey Bridges invites us to reflect on the profound importance of trust amidst life's wild adventures. He draws from the rich narrative of Jesus healing a man at the Pool of Bethesda, illustrating how our deepest needs often surface in the most challenging moments. As Pastor Jamey beautifully articulates, trust is not just a fleeting moment; it's a journey deepened through experiences with God and others. He challenges us to examine our own connections, reminding us that in an age of division and isolation, the essence of life is found in our relationships. Whether it's through the support of a trusted friend or the strength found in community, Pastor Jamey emphasizes that we are created for connection. As you embrace this message, consider how you can invest in your own relationships and seek out those “thin places” where divine encounters can happen. Don't miss this transformative message! Dive deeper into the sermon to discover how you can step out in faith and bring the fresh presence of God into your life and the lives of others.Thanks for listening!

In this episode of All About Capital Campaigns, Amy Eisenstein and Andrea Kihlstedt unpack a deceptively simple question: what counts toward your campaign goal?Getting this wrong can damage your credibility, confuse your board and donors, and throw off your reports. The good news? A clear set of campaign policies established early on can prevent most of the trouble. But clarity is not always easy.Amy and Andrea walk through some of the most common questions organizations face when deciding what to count:Should annual fund dollars be included in the campaign total?What about planned gifts that might not mature for decades?How should you treat in-kind donations like construction materials, technology, or donated property?What happens when the development office and the finance department count gifts differently?Using real-world stories and candid advice, they explore the consequences of unclear counting rules and the benefits of getting your team on the same page before the campaign is underway. You'll hear how one organization solved a million-dollar deficit thanks to a bequest made 70 years earlier, and how another spent more time than they'd like to admit trying to offload a donor's beloved collection of heavy metal figurines.The episode also covers how to handle situations where accounting and fundraising standards don't align. You might need two sets of reports: one for your auditors and one for your campaign committee. That tension is normal, but it needs to be addressed openly with your team—especially your finance colleagues.If you're planning a campaign or even thinking about one, this conversation will help you ask smarter questions now so you can avoid bigger problems later. And if you're not sure where to start, the Capital Campaign Pro Toolkit includes sample policies and discussion guides to help you think through these decisions.To ensure your campaign ends in a celebration, download our free Capital Campaign Step-by-Step Guide & Checklist.

Untying the Knot of Remote Work Communication In today's evolving workplace, communication breakdowns are more than just frustrating—they're costly. Dianna Anderson joins me to unpack her innovative "Untying the Knot" approach, rooted in large-scale change management and coaching. We dive deep into how organizations often rush remote work decisions without engaging their teams, and how this disconnect impacts morale and productivity. It's not just about location—it's about listening. The Shift Toward Adaptive Leadership Post-pandemic workplaces require more than 20th-century leadership styles. Dianna and I discuss how adaptive, people-first leadership is crucial in today's fast-paced, complex world. We explore how leaders can build bridges across generations and departments by fostering creativity, collaboration, and—most importantly—better conversations. From Individual Contributor to Impactful Leader Too often, high-performing employees are promoted to leadership roles without the tools or training to succeed. I share insights from my own leadership journey, including how I transformed a toxic workplace—not with layoffs, but through authentic communication and meeting staff where they were. Leadership isn't innate—it's learned, and it's teachable. Putting People First During a Crisis When the pandemic hit, I made a clear choice: prioritize people over processes. I talk about how checking in on employees' lives beyond work not only boosted morale but built a stronger, more connected organization. Supporting your team's well-being is not a soft skill—it's a strategic advantage. Human-Centered Leadership in the Age of AI In a world where algorithms drive decisions, we can't afford to lose our humanity. Dianna and I unpack why performance metrics must be balanced with emotional intelligence and clear direction. Her one-day coaching-based leadership workshop is a game-changer for teams ready to embrace a more thoughtful, collaborative way to lead. Creating a Shared Language for Change Organizational transformation starts with a shared language. Dianna shares how her work helps companies align people and priorities through simple yet powerful communication practices. I strongly encourage organizations ready to shift their culture to connect with Dianna—you'll be glad you did.   Bio Info Dianna Anderson is a visionary leader and the driving force behind Cylient, a pioneering organization dedicated to equipping people to successfully engage in the conversations they are currently avoiding.

Dianna saw the potential for creating coaching cultures in 2005 after co-authoring Coaching that Counts, a textbook based on ROI data and her years of coaching experience that illuminates how coaching engagements add value in organizations. The Untying the Knot® approach to “in the moment” coaching that she created has equipped over 55,000 people globally to wire up a coaching-based approach to leadership. As a thought leader in leadership development, Dianna has worked with clients across industries, from Fortune 500 companies to smaller organizations. Her approach combines deep empathy, evidence-based strategies, and a profound understanding of human dynamics to help leaders at all levels unlock their potential.

When a public sculpture sparks debate in a local community, it opens up age-old questions: Who decides what art is? Does art need to be beautiful, skilled, or even human-made? In this episode of Exploring Art Podcast, we explore how intention, audience, and context all shape the meaning of art. Drawing on course readings, real-world examples, and major philosophical perspectives, they dig into what makes art be art. We also expand on to questioning what exactly is art for us and we come down to the conclusion that art doesn't have a specific meaning. We go through various themes that all fall under the umbrella of what and who defines what art is as well as what is considered art.

Get Ready for a Deep Dive Into Global Drug Enforcement and National Security Join us for an eye-opening conversation with Derek S. Maltz, a 28-year veteran of the DEA and one of the most influential voices in the fight against transnational crime. As the former Special Agent in Charge of the DEA's Special Operations Division (SOD), Derek led over 500 personnel and helped coordinate the capture of cartel kingpins like El Chapo Guzmán.

His leadership earned him the Presidential Rank Award and national recognition on 60 Minutes, CNN, and NBC. Now a national security and public safety analyst seen regularly on major news networks, Maltz brings unparalleled insight into how the U.S. tracks and disrupts the world's most dangerous criminal networks.

When you think of NXT Superstars, only one comes to mind when you hear the phrase "All Ego"!Ethan Page made his stunning arrival in NXT and completely upended the hierarchy by attacking not only Noam Dar and Oro Mensah, but also NXT Champion Trick Williams when Page himself wasn't even an official Superstar.The egotistical Page won the NXT Championship by winning a Fatal 4-Way at NXT Heatwave in just his fourth match in NXT, ushering in the All Ego era.With a biting tongue, in-ring skills to back it up, and a chip on his shoulder the size of a mountain, there's no telling what Page might say or do as an NXT Superstar.ABOUT THE SPECIAL EDITION OF NXT OF THE CW NETWORKA special edition of NXT will take place Tuesday, July 22 at the iconic 713 Music Hall in downtown Houston, Texas.Launched by WWE Chief Content Officer Paul "Triple H" Levesque NXT has aired weekly since 2012 and features the brightest young talent in sports entertainment.

The federal government reimburses school districts for meals they serve to students through the National School Lunch Program. Students receive a free or reduced-price lunch through the National School Lunch Program if they meet 1 of several criteria including participating in certain federal programs, being a migrant student, and having household income of 130% or less than the federal poverty line. In Kansas, the state provides at-risk funding to school districts based on the number of students who are eligible for a free lunch and meet a few other criteria.We chose a random and projectable sample of students who qualified for a free lunch in the 2023-24 school year to verify their eligibility for the free lunch program. We estimated that 54% to 72% of all Kansas students who qualified for free lunches because they submitted a National School Lunch Program application were likely ineligible in the 2023-24 school year. However, only about 16% of all students who qualified for a free lunch qualified by submitting an application. For most of the remainder of students we were not able to verify their eligibility because their eligibility was determined by the Department for Children and Families, the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, or by their school district. Because of time and data constraints, we could not determine whether those agencies and districts correctly determine student eligibility. As a result, we could not assess the overall accuracy of the free lunch count.Federal rules significantly limit school districts' and KSDE's ability to verify the eligibility of students who receive a free lunch. As a result, the free lunch program is at high risk of fraud, waste, and abuse.

The pasuk in Kohelet says: " עֵת לָלֶדֶת וְעֵת לָמוּת " — "A time to be born, and a time to die." (Kohelet 3:2). The Midrash in Kohelet Rabbah teaches that from the moment a person is born, Hashem determines exactly how long that person will live. Every breath, every second, is measured. And it is considered a great merit for someone to live out every single moment of their allotted time in this world. We cannot begin to grasp the infinite value of just one second of life. Sometimes, patients who are suffering deeply may wish to pass on rather than continue living in pain, connected to machines. Their families, too, may struggle watching them suffer. These situations are deeply painful and emotionally charged—but they are also halachically complex, and a competent Rav must always be consulted. These are not decisions anyone should take into their own hands. Halachah teaches us that we desecrate Shabbat to extend the life of a patient even in a vegetable state, even if it's just for one more second. That is how precious life is in Hashem's eyes. Rabbi Aryeh Levin once visited a man who was suffering terribly in the hospital. The man asked the rabbi, "Why should I continue living like this? I can't pray, I can't learn. I'm just in pain." Rabbi Levin gently took his hand and answered, "Who knows? Perhaps one word of Shema said in pain is worth more than a lifetime of mitzvot done in comfort. Every breath you take now—with emunah—brings Hashem so much nachat." The man began to cry. From that moment on, he accepted each breath with emunah and gratitude. He passed away just a few days later—peaceful, uplifted, and surrounded by meaning. Chazal say: "Sha'ah achat shel teshuvah u'maasim tovim ba'olam hazeh yafeh mikol chayei ha'olam haba"—one hour of repentance and good deeds in this world is greater than all of the World to Come. In just one moment, a person can elevate himself spiritually forever. The Gemara in Avodah Zarah shares three separate stories of individuals who earned their entire portion in the World to Come in one moment of their life. When Rabbi Yehuda HaNasi heard them, he wept, recognizing the unimaginable power of even a single second. The Sifrei Kodesh teach that even one thought of teshuvah can have massive spiritual effects. Even a person on his deathbed, who cannot speak or move, can—through one pure thought, one yearning for Hashem—accomplish more than all the angels in Heaven combined. If all a person can do is breathe, that breath is a treasure beyond comprehension. As long as someone is breathing, Hashem wants him alive. His mission in this world is not yet complete. A man shared with me that his father, Eddie, recently passed away. He had told his children that if he reached the end of life, he didn't want to be kept alive artificially and in pain. But when the time came, his children called Chayim Aruchim, an organization that helps families navigate end-of-life issues according to halachah. They were given a personal Rav who was an expert in this field. He came down to the hospital and explained the halachic importance—and the spiritual benefit to Eddie and his family—of staying connected to the machine, even for a short time. The Rav monitored his condition every day for ten days, ensuring halachah was followed precisely. Eventually, the doctors said Eddie's final moments had come. His children gathered around his bed and watched their father take his last breaths. They were so grateful they had consulted daat Torah and allowed their father to live every moment Hashem had intended for him. And then, just as they left the hospital, a truck drove by with the word "Eddie's" written in big letters—something they had never seen before. To them, it felt like a wink from Hashem, a small smile from Above, affirming that they had done the right thing. Every second of life is a priceless gift. In one moment, a person can earn eternity. And sometimes, the last breath we breathe with emunah is something that brings the greatest glory to Hashem.

Live from a retreat setting, Kelly shares about the strength of commitment and community. As the group reflected on the reward and fulfillment of unplugging and sharing growth with a group of like-minded people, they concluded that the experience is intimate and inspiring.  

After several years of record-breaking illegal immigration, the second Trump administration is looking to make a significant change to the way that the U.S. Census is conducted. Specifically, they are seeking to end the practice of including illegal aliens when counting up a state's official population. Last month, the White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy, Stephen Miller, said that the second Trump administration was determined “to clean up the census and make sure that illegal aliens are not counted.”Mr. Miller didn't mention it in that speech, but the ramifications of making this kind of change would be dramatic. This is because the census count is used to apportion the number of House seats that each state gets, to determine the number of votes that each state has in the electoral college, and to decide where trillions of dollars in government funds should flow. Meaning that the question of whether or not illegal aliens are counted could determine who controls the U.S. House of Representatives after 2030.Let's go through the details of the Trump administration's plan together.
