Your phone is not just a gadget. It is a gateway into an economy built to capture attention, shape behavior, and keep you coming back. We bring on Jay Vidyarthi, mindfulness teacher, UX designer, technologist, and founder of Still Ape, to talk about the real world collision between contemplative practice and the modern attention economy. We start with a short, grounding practice of “doing nothing,” then zoom out to the strange fact that even this conversation is carried by microphones, data packets, and screens.Jay shares what it feels like to grow up loving video games and early internet creativity while also longing for silence, retreats, and depth. That tension shows up everywhere: tech culture can dismiss meditation, and mindfulness culture can quietly shame technology. We name the cost of that split, especially the guilt, shame, and fear that can creep into how we talk about screen time, social media, and even our kids' digital lives. Jay offers a more honest frame: you do not have to abandon technology to be mindful, but you do need a healthier relationship with your attention.From there, we dig into the incentives behind the systems, including how AI may be pushing us from an attention economy into an “attachment economy,” where people form bonds with bots and start confiding in them. Jay argues that mindfulness is becoming subversive, not because it is trendy, but because choosing where to place attention runs against powerful forces. He calls the response “attention activism,” a middle way that avoids both naive techno-optimism and tech doom, and invites teachers, designers, and everyday users to show up online with wisdom.If you care about mindfulness, digital wellness, humane technology, or building tech that supports human flourishing, this conversation will give you language and direction.

Cook County Crime Stoppers is offering a one thousand dollar cash reward for information leading to the arrest of whoever vandalized a mural of fallen Chicago Police Officers on the city's Southwest Side on June 15, 2026. The mural, located in the 6800 block of South Pulaski in the West Lawn neighborhood, is a tribute to Chicago Police officers killed in the line of duty. It includes depictions fallen CPD officers Luis Huesca, Andrés Vásquez Lasso, and Enrique Martinez. The vandal or vandals spray painted over part of the mural -- partially covering two of the officer's faces. Cook County Crime Stoppers says tips can be submitted anonymously by calling 1-800-535-STOP or online at CPDTIP.com.

Brian Killacky, retired CPD homicide investigator and hostage negotiator, joins Karen Conti to discuss police interrogations, when Miranda rights must be given, why people admit to crimes they didn’t commit, lie detector tests, and his involvement in the Brown’s Chicken murder interrogation.

On this episode of Mind the Gap, Tom Sherrington and Emma Turner are joined once again by Mary Myatt, education writer, speaker and author of The Ambitious Years, for a compelling conversation about reclaiming Key Stage 3 as a vital phase of education in its own right. Mary makes the case that Years 7–9 should not be treated merely as preparation for GCSEs, but as a rich, intellectually ambitious period where every pupil deserves access to challenging curriculum content, powerful vocabulary, high-quality texts and resources that spark curiosity. The discussion explores the importance of stronger primary-secondary curriculum understanding and why leadership decisions around time, staffing, and curriculum priorities matter so much. Drawing on the 'Faster Read' research, Mary also explains why reading aloud, beautiful texts, rich narratives and “above pay grade” material can have a transformative impact, especially for pupils with lower starting points. Along the way, they revisit Mary's signature idea of 'high challenge, low threat', showing how teachers can name difficulty, reduce fear, and create classrooms where pupils are invited into demanding work with confidence.Mary Myatt is an education adviser, writer and speaker. She curates Myatt & Co where she works with colleagues to develop work on curriculum and wider school improvement. She trained as an RE teacher and is a former local authority adviser and inspector. She has worked in small schools, for large trusts, national and international organisations. Mary has written extensively about leadership, school improvement and the curriculum: ‘High Challenge, Low Threat', ‘Hopeful Schools' and ‘The Curriculum: Gallimaufry to Coherence' , ‘Back on Track'. Her most recent book, 'Key Stage 3: The Ambitious Years' is out soon. Her education philosophy is underpinned by several principles: that all children deserve rich demanding work, that high quality talk underpins learning, that human beings are curious and that they find deep work very satisfying.

This episode is a personal and confronting reflection on how quickly even a cyberaware professional can lose control of a long-standing Gmail account. What began as a seemingly legitimate brand collaboration unfolded into a carefully orchestrated phishing attack that removed all security measures within seconds. The experience highlights how modern cybercrime blends patience, credibility signals, automation and psychological triggers to bypass even cautious users. The phishing grooming process and credibility signals used • The red flags hidden in plain sight • What happened in the 60-second account takeover  • The recovery journey and escalation through professional networks  • Three essential security measures: 2FA, passkeys and backup codes This story is not about fear. It is about awareness, practical action and understanding how sophisticated attacks have become. The lesson is simple: five minutes of security setup can prevent four days of stress.

Hi, everybody, it's the start of Season 12 and I'm focusing on underdisclosure in protection insurance. Also known as misrepresentation or non-disclosure, this is a situation that everyone wants to avoid. Underdisclosure might not change the terms of insurance, but, it can lead to prices or sum assureds changing, and in the worst case a policy being cancelled from inception.The key takeaways:Non-disclosure is seen as innocent, negligent or deliberateIt can be tricky sometimes to remember everything in your medical history that the insurer wants to know, so accessing your medical records before applying for cover can be a big helpExamples of insurance questions in protection insurance where we see underdisclosureAlan will be back with me next time for a deep dive into a medical condition and how it's underwritten for protection insurance. We are always happy to take your suggestions on what to cover so please feel free to fire over any areas that you would like us to go into.Remember, if you are listening to this as part of your work, you can claim a CPD certificate on our website, thanks to our sponsors PlannerX.

Avoiding Costly Miscommunication in Architecture: Clearer Client Communication with Usman YaqubJon Clayton hosts Architecture Business Club with guest Usman Yaqub, president of the Chartered Institute of Architectural Technologists and director at Studio Yaqub Architecture, to discuss how miscommunication and technical jargon damage projects and client relationships. Usman explains that clients, contractors, planners, engineers, and consultants view the same project through different lenses—emotional investment, buildability and program, or compliance and policy—so communication must be adapted to what “success” means for each audience and to reduce “scope canyons” between silos. He shares examples where stakeholders misunderstood milestones and where “planning approval” was wrongly assumed to mean ready-to-build, stressing the need to confirm understanding. Practical tactics include using relatable explanations, storytelling, and visual tools like drawings, BIM, and visualisations, plus framing meetings to invite questions.Today's GuestUsman Yaqub is the current President of The Chartered Institute of Architectural Technologists & Director at Studio Yaqub Architecture. He's an Associate Lecturer at The University of the West of England and holds positions with a number of charities and not for profit organisations. He also established the popular online CPD series - CPD in 43.—Episode Highlights00:00 Introduction01:12 Meet Usman Yaqub02:11 Different Lenses Different Goals03:33 Keeping Clients Emotionally Engaged05:10 Bridging Scope Canyons06:19 Jargon That Backfires06:58 Simplicity Shows Expertise08:04 Making The Process Accessible10:09 Miscommunication Stories10:46 Milestones And Expectations11:59 Planning Approval Confusion13:12 Spotting When They Don't Get It14:50 Planning Vs Building Regs Explained16:25 Bookending Meetings For Clarity18:28 Tailoring To Each Audience22:05 Storytelling And Visual Tools23:57 Biggest Communication Advice24:59 Final Thoughts And Where To Connect—Key TakeawaysThink about who you are talking toEveryone you work with sees a project differently. A client cares about how it will change their life. A contractor cares about how to build it. A planner cares about rules and policy. When you understand what matters to each person, you can talk to them in a way that makes sense for them — and things go much more smoothly.Simple words show more skill than big onesUsing jargon might make you feel clever, but it can leave people confused and too embarrassed to say so. The real skill is taking something complex and explaining it in plain language. If someone walks away understanding you, that is a much better result than if they walk away impressed but lost.Good communication means checking understanding, not just sharing informationSaying something clearly is only half the job. You also need to make sure the other person has understood it the same way you meant it. Watch for small signs — hesitation, odd questions, or repeated words — that tell you there may be a gap. Ask "what questions do you have?" instead of "do you have any questions?" to give people a proper chance to speak up.—Subscribe on YouTube (for upcoming video episodes!)

We sit down with Sarah Grace, a specialist mortgage broker who works closely with UK dentists, to unpack what is happening in the mortgage market as a huge wave of borrowers roll off two-year and five-year fixes. If you are moving from a sub-2% deal to something that starts with a four, you are not alone and you are not imagining the shock. We get practical on the decision that matters most right now: fixed rate mortgage versus tracker mortgage. Sarah explains why fixed rates can jump even when base rate holds, how swap rates and the money markets feed into lender pricing, and what that means during periods of global uncertainty. We also talk about the fine print that can save you money later, especially early repayment charges, and why a tracker with no ERC can offer flexibility if you want to switch when the mood changes. For associates and dentists early in their career, we answer a common worry: whether you need two years of accounts to get a mortgage after becoming self-employed. Sarah shares how some lenders can work from three months of pay schedules, how income may be annualised, and how to think about timing when your earnings are still building. Then we go deeper on interest-only mortgages, including equity requirements, lender rules around downsizing as a repayment plan, and alternatives such as using an ISA or an NHS pension tax-free lump sum as the repayment vehicle. ———————————————————————Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.

Digital dentistry started in the 1980s. But according to Dr Wolf-Dieter Perlitz, we're now entering something entirely new: the era of connected dentistry.In this episode of The Dental Practitioner, host Dr Dominic Aouad sits down with Wolf-Dieter — Head of DS Core Product Management at Dentsply Sirona — to unpack what that means for dentists right now and over the next decade.With a background in engineering and health economics, Wolf-Dieter brings a rare perspective to the conversation: one that balances the technical reality of cloud computing and AI with the practical business case for adoption in everyday practice.They cover the three pillars driving connected dentistry — growth, efficiency, and outcome — and discuss how DS Core acts as a single platform to connect equipment, labs, patients, and clinical workflows. Wolf-Dieter also reflects on 40 years of CEREC, the patient-first mission that started it all, and why the dentists who adopt cloud technology earlier will have the longest runway for the innovations still to come.Topics covered: what connected dentistry means and why it's distinct from digital dentistry, DS Core as a cloud-native platform, AI applications in clinical workflows, integration with third-party equipment and labs, the business case for cloud adoption, cybersecurity, the CEREC origin story, and what the next 40 years of innovation look like.Interviewer(s): Dr Dominic AouadInterviewee(s): Dr Wolf-Dieter PerlitzRelated Course/Event/Links: Dentsply SironaThe Dental Practitioner is brought to you by the Australian Dental Association NSW.

Fran Spielman interviews Emmanuel Andre, Mayor Brandon Johnson's newly appointed deputy mayor for community safety, about preparing for Chicago's summer public safety challenges as CPS ends the school year. Andre discusses fears about tragedies, cycles of revenge, and key dates like Juneteenth and July 4th, describing a “full-of-government” approach with CPD, OEMC, Streets and Sanitation, elected officials, and community violence intervention partners to plan for incidents and large youth gatherings such as a potential lakefront “teen takeover.” 

Hannah Wooldridge isn't only the person keeping Financial Planner Life running behind the scenes. She's also training to become a financial planner, and sharing every step of the journey in real time.In this episode, Sam sits down with Hannah for the second update in an ongoing series following her path from a complete beginner to a qualified financial planner. She's one exam down, five to go, and already doing things most trainees don't think about until they're qualified.They dig into what it actually felt like to sit her R01 after 11 years away from exams, what she's learning by shadowing real client meetings, and why she's already thinking seriously about the business she hasn't launched yet. Most importantly, Hannah makes the case, without even realising it, for why waiting until you're ready isn't the way to building success.This one's for anyone who's thinking about becoming a financial planner, currently in the middle of their exams, or wondering what the path to self-employment actually looks like from the very beginning.The key takeaways

We sit down with Ravinder Nottra, a profitability coach for dentists, to unpack how Lean and Six Sigma can turn the daily chaos of overruns, long waits, and inconsistent workflows into something you can actually see, measure, and improve.We start with a familiar pain point: the “30-minute wait”. Rav shows how delays are rarely caused by one big mistake, but by a cascade of small defects that stack up, then links that operational drag to the numbers that matter: no-shows, overheads, and how small percentage wins can translate into meaningful profit. From there we dig into Lean thinking, mapping the patient journey to strip out waste, and Six Sigma, reducing variation so your diary becomes predictable rather than hopeful.You will hear practical examples from McDonald's consistency, Formula 1 pit stops and SMED, plus surprising bottleneck lessons from the NHS and Heathrow that apply directly to reception, chair time, and pre-appointment communication. Rav also shares three tools you can use immediately: the Five Whys, Pareto thinking, and tight standard operating procedures that protect quality and boost practice valuation by making performance repeatable.———————————————————————Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.

We keep it simple and practical by using a four-part framework you can apply to any portfolio: choose your asset first, then the fund, then the account, and only then the platform. That one change stops you picking a shiny investing app and shoehorning your plan into whatever it happens to sell, and it puts the focus back on what actually drives results: asset allocation and time horizon.We dig into the part almost everyone gets wrong: confusing risk with volatility. Volatility is the price of admission for long-term returns, especially if you are investing for 10+ years. We also pull inflation into the conversation, because returns that fail to beat inflation are not real progress towards financial freedom. Using clear examples, we explore why some “low risk” portfolios can be risky in a different way, by making it harder to reach your goals.From there we move into the nuts and bolts: using funds, ETFs and index funds for global diversification, what to look for in tracking and fund charges, and why passive investing often wins after fees. We then weigh up UK investing accounts such as a General Investment Account, an ISA, and a pension or SIPP, focusing on the trade-off between tax efficiency and access. Finally, we talk platforms, the reality behind “no fee” claims, flat fee versus percentage pricing, and the fee ranges that should make you pause.———————————————————————Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.

On this episode of Mind the Gap, Tom Sherrington and Emma Turner are joined by Dixie-Louise Dexter, Assistant Head, EYFS lead and English lead, for a rich and practical exploration of what high-quality early years provision really looks like. Dixie shares how her team creates the “magic” of reception through meticulous attention to detail: a carefully planned induction process, strong relationships with families, home and preschool visits, and a learning environment shaped around each cohort's needs. The conversation explores why wellbeing, safety and involvement come first, how “going slow” at the start helps children go further later, and how continuous provision can be deliberately designed to build communication, language, independence and curriculum knowledge. They also discuss transition into Key Stage 1, mixed-age Year 1–2 classes, and why the question should not be whether children are “ready” for Year 1, but whether Year 1 is ready for them.With over 15 years teaching experience in EYFS, Dixie-Louise Dexter has been successfully leading the Early Years Foundation Stage at Ashby Hill Top for the past 7 years. During that time, she has developed a highly skilled team and an inspirational learning environment in which children thrive, consistently achieving above national average outcomes. Dixie cultivates a research-based approach in daily practice and has provided support to EYFS practitioners in a range of schools both locally and further afield, guiding them to further develop their practice in curriculum development and continuous provision as well as the role of the adult in the EYFS. As well as this, she worked as an EYFSP moderator for the Local Authority, completed further qualifications in Early Years Speech & Language, and is currently undertaking an NPQH.Tom Sherrington has worked in schools as a teacher and leader for 30 years and is now a consultant specialising in teacher development and curriculum & assessment planning. He regularly contributes to conferences and CPD sessions locally and nationally and is busy working in schools and colleges across the UK and around the world.

For most financial planners, the point of entry into the industry is either from an adjacent field or by working up from admin through paraplanning roles.But not Tim. His route stands out as unconventional, but it's far from hindering his professional success. Law school. A year in Swansea chasing training contracts that never materialised. A sales recruitment firm. And then, a client engagement role at a financial planning firm in Cheltenham, a job he recruited for without really knowing the industry. On day one, his main question was: What exactly is financial planning?In this episode of Financial Planner Life, Sam sits down with Tim Brienza, a self-employed financial planner with Montpelier Asset Management, to trace the full arc of his career, from that accidental entry point to managing close to £50 million in assets under management as a chartered fellow in his mid-thirties.Tim talks with Sam about how the unique first role that gave him a bird's-eye view of the profession, before he ever gave a piece of advice, how he leapt into advice and got chartered within 12 months of his first client meeting, but most importantly, his deliberate approach to networking that built his client base over a decade without him ever chasing the wrong people in the wrong rooms.He also breaks down the reality of going self-employed and what it's like to help build a firm from scratch. He shares the tips and ambitious approach he's adopted to propel him into a career as a financial adviser, now managing £50AUM. Tim also explains his voluntary role with the Personal Finance Society and how their inaugural New Gen programme aims to bring more young people into a profession he believes is one of the best-kept career secrets going.The episode's key takeaways

We sit down with finance specialist Kevin Saunders to make sense of the latest Bank of England base rate picture, why inflation still matters, and why some economists are now talking about rate rises again rather than cuts. If you are a UK dentist with a loan on a variable rate, or you have borrowing you have not looked at in years, this is your nudge to stop running on autopilot. We get practical about refinancing for dentists: who should consider a review (especially borrowing taken out between 2008 and 2020), how practice valuations can unlock better terms as your business matures, and why stacked short-term equipment finance can quietly drain your monthly cash flow. We also talk through the real-world friction costs people forget, like valuation fees, legal fees, and early repayment charges, so you can judge whether switching is genuinely worth it. Kevin shares how newer lending products and longer terms, including 20-year goodwill loans, can reduce repayments even if the interest rate is slightly higher. The goal is simple: improve cash flow and direct the surplus into building personal wealth, including paying down your residential mortgage where there is no tax relief on interest. We finish with straight talk for first-time buyers: waiting for the “perfect” rate can mean missing the perfect practice.———————————————————————Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.

Should we still be drilling early caries lesions? Where do peptides, resin infiltration, fluoride varnish and SDF actually fit in modern practice? Is hydroxyapatite toothpaste a genuine alternative to fluoride, or just another dental trend? And when you see that suspicious grey occlusal shadow, do you seal it, explore it, or actively surveil it? In part two of this modern caries management episode, Jaz continues the conversation with Prof. Avijit Banerjee on minimal intervention dentistry. This episode moves beyond diagnosis and communication into the practical management of early and progressing caries lesions, including peptides, SDF, hydroxyapatite toothpaste, fissure sealing, xerostomia, root caries and selective caries removal. https://youtu.be/dGt7FW7C4N0 Watch PDP269 on YouTube Protrusive Dental Pearl Use the Contemporary Caries Management Implementation Pack as a chairside aid to turn the episode into daily clinical action. ⚠️ Learning the evidence is not enough if it never makes it into your patient conversations, risk assessment or treatment planning. ✅ Print it, laminate it, and use it to support communication, diagnosis, active surveillance and minimally invasive decision-making.

It is intended as a practical summary and is not a substitute for primary sources. We strongly encourage all clinicians to consult the latest Clinical Practice Guidelines before making treatment decisions. Key Takeaways: Peptides are designed to infiltrate early enamel lesions and create a scaffold for mineral deposition. Peptide technologies still need minerals from saliva, toothpaste, mouthwash or other sources to work. Fluoride supports remineralisation; it acts more like the “mortar” than the “bricks”. Early E1 lesions are usually managed with prevention, fluoride, oral hygiene, diet control and biofilm control. Deeper enamel lesions, such as progressing E1 or E2 lesions, may be suitable for resin infiltration or peptide infiltration. SDF is better suited to cavitated lesions where arrest and stabilisation are needed. In the UK, SDF is licensed for dentine sensitivity, so caries arrest is an off-label use. SDF can be very useful for children, older adults, medically compromised patients and care-home patients. The main downside of conventional SDF is black staining, especially on anterior teeth. Hydroxyapatite toothpaste has more science behind it than charcoal-style fad toothpastes. Fluoride toothpaste remains the preferred baseline recommendation when patients are happy to use fluoride. A suspicious grey occlusal lesion should be assessed in the context of the patient's overall caries risk. In selected cases, a tiny exploratory opening can act like a diagnostic biopsy. Sealing fissures on the same tooth being restored can be sensible when the fissure pattern is deep. For severe xerostomia and root caries risk, consider high-fluoride regimes, close recalls, trays or dentures as carriers for remineralising agents.

Episode 136 – Cooperative Care with Charlotte Lewis   I am always talking about bridging the gap between Veterinary Professionals and great non-Veterinary Professionals and encouraging more collaborative ways of working to best serve our patients and their families. So, when I heard that Charlotte runs a Cooperative Care Service at her local Veterinary Practice, provides CPD to the Vets at the practice as well as educational classes to the practice's clients, I just knew I had to chat to her to find out more!   In this episode, Charlotte and I chat about the benefits of Cooperative Care and Gentle Handling for the patients, the caregivers and the veterinary teams, and the kinds of cases that could benefit most from these approaches.   Charlotte also provides some really simple, easy and effective tools for helping patients feel safer in the veterinary practice – tools that anyone working in most practices can easily learn and implement!   We round up the podcast with an emotional conversation about the things Charlotte has learned from the veterinary team at the practice – resilience, a desire to show up no matter how big the emotional strain and a true love and commitment to the profession and the patients they serve – which left us both a little teary!   This is one you'll definitely not want to miss !   If you'd like to learn more about reducing Fear and Stress at the Veterinary Clinic, then my brand new Masterclass – "The 4 Pillars of reducing Fear and Stress at the Veterinary Clinic" is just the thing for you: https://katrin-jahn.mykajabi.com/four-pillars   You can find Charlotte at www.cannycaninesuk.com and on social media @cannycaninesuk   If you liked this episode of the show, Veterinary Behaviour Chat, please LEAVE A 5-STAR REVIEW, like, share, and subscribe!   Facebook Group: Join The Veterinary Behaviour Community on Facebook   You can CONNECT with me: Website: Visit my website Trinity Veterinary Behaviour Instagram: Follow Trinity Veterinary Behaviour on Instagram Trinity Veterinary Behaviour Facebook: Join us on Trinity Veterinary Behaviour's Facebook page Trinity Veterinary Behaviour YouTube: Subscribe to Trinity Veterinary Behaviour on YouTube LinkedIn Profile: Connect with me on LinkedIn   Thank you for tuning in!

Send us Fan MailWhen I first really started thinking about medical humanities, torytelling and "accidental CPD", about 14 years ago, I set up the Chesterfield Medical Humanities Book Club, which is still running. The very first book that we talked about was Cutting for Stone by Abraham Verghese, which I had read before when it first came out and which I went back to and loved all over again.So when I started bedside reading, I really thought that someone very early on would say, we must talk about Cutting for Stone. And no one did. I didn't push anybody because I knew it had to be the right time. Obviously it's always the guest's choice of what people talk about when they come on this podcast and it was a great delight to get a message from Alice Deasy a few months ago to say, that she had read Cutting for Stone, that she couldn't stop thinking about it, that she couldn't stop talking about it, that she couldn't stop recommending it to people, and that maybe she could come and talk about it on the podcast. I have had a brilliant time rediscovering this novel and talking to Alice.

We sit down with marketing specialist Rahil Kumar from MiSmile Media and dentist and speaker Dr Dan Shaffer to get brutally practical about personal brand for dentists in the UK, and why it changes everything from your diary to your pricing power. If you have ever thought “posting won't really make a difference”, we challenge that comfort-zone logic and show what being visible actually does for your career. We talk about what a personal brand really is: not a logo, not a claim of being “high quality”, but the sum of every touchpoint patients experience. Dan shares how authenticity and integrity create a USP patients can feel, and why personal stories land when they are true rather than engineered for likes. We also explore the reality that most patients cannot easily judge clinical nuance, so they choose the dentist they trust, the one who communicates clearly and feels consistent online and in the practice. Then we get tactical: which platforms matter, how Instagram and Meta algorithms work, why short-form video wins attention, and what to do if you hate being on camera. We also zoom out to the in-practice details that make or break a premium brand experience, plus a case example where consistent organic social starts bringing patients in without turning on the paid ads tap.———————————————————————Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.

Send us Fan MailChronic absenteeism keeps getting described as a kid problem, but the evidence tells a different story. When we label students as “disengaged,” we miss what is often right in front of us: unreliable transportation, health crises, caregiving demands, and school policies that punish families for not having options.I'm joined by Dr. Ivory Toldson, Chief of Research for Concentric Educational Solutions and a professor at Howard University, to unpack insights from his white paper, “Redefining the Attendance Paradigm: A Systemic Analysis of Chronic Absenteeism, Economic Impacts, & Human-Centered Interventions,” built on national data and more than 17,000 ethnographic home visits. We talk about the privilege gap that determines whether a missed bus becomes a minor inconvenience or a full-day absence, and why health-related absences often become “unexcused” through communication breakdowns and paperwork hurdles. We also dig into the gray areas schools struggle with, like when students miss class to care for siblings or help during family emergencies.We take a hard look at compliance-driven attendance strategies, including truancy penalties and suspensions for tardies, and why those approaches can deepen disengagement rather than improve school attendance. From there, we map out what human-centered interventions look like in practice: home visits that bring resources, clearer excused absence processes, stronger relationships, and policies that prioritize mastery of learning over seat time. We close with a mindset shift that changes everything: stop “fighting absenteeism” and start increasing participation.

In this powerful and timely episode, Dr Ahmed Seedat — respiratory and general internal medicine consultant, global health specialist, and former policy fellow — joins Dr Krishna Misra, an experienced GP in inclusion health, for an in‑depth exploration of migrant and refugee health. Together with host Dr Rohan Mehra, they unpack the realities facing displaced populations today: from the impact of geopolitical instability and the climate emergency, to the language and stigma shaping public attitudes, to the structural barriers embedded within UK health systems.Through expert insight and frontline experience, the conversation delves into the drivers of forced migration, the consequences of restricted safe routes, the challenges created by the UK asylum backlog, and the complex interplay between trauma, mental health, and chronic disease. Importantly, the episode also highlights a successful collaborative model between primary and secondary care in South East London — demonstrating the power of relationships, community, and advocacy to improve outcomes for some of the most marginalised people in society.Listeners will leave with a richer understanding of migrant health, actionable advice for clinicians, and a hopeful reminder that community truly is a superpower.ResourcesDoctors of the World:Advice line - Doctors of the Worldurgent_care_guidelines.pdf Home 2026 | Refugee WeekBMA:Refugee and asylum seeker health resource updated 2025 BMJ:Knights F, Munir S, Ahmed H, Hargreaves S.

If you showed the same bitewing to 10 dentists, would they all agree on whether to pick up the drill? Why does the word monitoring mean nothing to a patient — and how does swapping it for active surveillance change everything from your notes to your indemnity to your government policy meetings? Is it overtreatment to act on an E2 lesion — or is “watch and wait” actually the lazy answer dressed up as minimally invasive? And what should you actually do with AI caries detection that flags shadows your eye doesn't see? In this episode, Professor Avijit Banerjee — Professor of Cariology & Operative Dentistry at King's College London, Honorary Consultant at Guy's & St Thomas', and First Dean of the Faculty of Dentistry at the College of General Dentistry — sits down with Jaz for what is genuinely one of the most important caries conversations on the podcast. Part one of two. Avijit doesn't do soft answers. The drill-fill-bill model is broken. “Monitoring” needs to go. “Treatment planning” is antiquated terminology medics dropped twenty-five years ago. And AI in caries diagnosis? Useful — but the moment it gets things wrong, you are the one with indemnity, not the software. What you walk away with is a framework (MIOC), a decision filter (three factors that decide whether to pick up a bur), and a vocabulary shift you can implement tomorrow. Part two covers peptides, SDF, hydroxyapatite, stepwise excavation, and managing caries in xerostomia. https://youtu.be/YriLo8_hXNw Watch PDP268 on YouTube Protrusive Dental Pearl: Delete the Word “Monitor” from Your Vocabulary Stop saying monitor. Start saying active surveillance. ⚠️ Active surveillance must not mean passive delay — document your reasoning, risk assessment, and what would trigger intervention. ✅ Explain it to patients as structured, proactive care: clinical checks, radiographs, risk review, behaviour support, and timely action if things change. Key Takeaways Minimum intervention oral care is bigger than minimally invasive dentistry. MIOC is prevention-based, person-focused, susceptibility-related, and delivered by the whole oral healthcare team. MID is only one part of MIOC: operative dentistry when a tooth actually needs intervention. The four MIOC domains are: identify the problem, prevent lesions and control disease, provide minimally invasive operative care, then reassess. A care plan is more useful than a treatment plan because it includes justification, prevention, behaviour change, and review. Ask patients what matters to you, not just what's the matter with you. Cavitation, cleansability, and lesion activity should guide whether to intervene operatively. A cavitated lesion that cannot be cleaned is much more likely to remain active. Smooth surface lesions may sometimes be made cleansable without conventional drilling. Restorations are not just about filling holes; they help recreate a cleansable tooth surface. There is no single perfect caries detection technology — clinical examination and good radiographs remain fundamental. If using NIRI, fluorescence, scanners, or AI, understand how the technology works and where it fails. AI should support diagnosis, not replace clinical judgement.

What becomes possible for your coaching business when you stop seeing supervision as a requirement and start seeing it as your next stage of professional evolution? In this episode of the podcast, we explored three powerful ways coaches can expand their coaching business through coaching supervision training. We wanted to open up a conversation about what happens when coaches reach that point in their career where they are ready for something more. Many coaches begin with one-to-one coaching, then move into corporate coaching, leadership development or coaching programmes. Over time, however, there can be a sense that the work needs a new level of stretch, challenge and depth. That is where coaching supervision can become such a meaningful next step. For us, supervision is not about replacing coaching. It is about adding another layer to your coaching business. It can bring variety, credibility, deeper professional relationships and a more sustainable income stream. It can also position you as a more senior practitioner in the coaching industry. During the conversation, we reflected on how coaching supervision supports the coach, but also reaches beyond them. When we supervise a coach, we are indirectly supporting the many clients, teams and organisations that coach works with. That ripple effect is one of the reasons supervision feels so valuable. We also talked about how supervision changes the way we work. It invites us to look more closely at the psychodynamics, relationships, systems and patterns that sit beneath the surface of coaching conversations. For experienced coaches, this can be deeply refreshing. It challenges habits, expands awareness and brings new depth to our work. The episode focused on three clear ways to build coaching supervision into your business: one-to-one supervision, group supervision and organisational supervision. Each route offers something different, both commercially and professionally. One-to-one supervision can create long-term, high-trust relationships with coaches who value ongoing reflective support. Group supervision offers more scalability, more shared learning and the opportunity to build a sense of community. Organisational supervision creates a commercial pathway into businesses that already have internal coaching pools and need help supporting their coaches well. We also reflected on the confidence gap many coaches feel when considering supervision training. Some coaches imagine they need decades of experience before they are allowed to step into this space. Our view is different. If you are an experienced coach with solid training and practice behind you, coaching supervision training can be a valid and exciting next step. This episode is an invitation to think bigger about your coaching business. Coaching supervision training can help you expand your services, support more coaches, deepen your professional identity and contribute to the wider coaching profession in a more strategic way. The 3 Ways To Expand Your Coaching Business Through Coaching Supervision Training: 1. One-to-One Coaching Supervision The first route is one-to-one supervision. This is often the most obvious place to start because it mirrors the depth and intimacy many coaches already value in their coaching work. One-to-one supervision allows you to build long-term, trusted relationships with coaches who want reflective support for their practice. From a business perspective, this can create more stable recurring income. Professional coaches often need supervision to maintain accreditation and practise ethically, which means you are not trying to create demand from scratch. The need already exists. One-to-one supervision also allows you to become a meaningful part of another coach's professional growth. You may become the person who helps them spot patterns, explore client dynamics, process difficult emotions and evolve their identity as a practitioner. 2. Group Coaching Supervision The second route is group supervision. Group supervision can be more scalable because you are supporting several coaches at the same time. It also creates a different type of learning environment. Coaches learn from their own reflections, but they also learn from listening to others. We talked about how group supervision can normalise challenges, spark insight and create a stronger sense of community. It can also generate more word-of-mouth referrals, more testimonials and a wider network of people who experience your supervision style. There is also a real opportunity for creativity in this space. Group supervision does not need to follow one rigid model. You could build structured programmes, creative reflective sessions, niche supervision groups or blended offers that combine one-to-one and group supervision. 3. Organisational Coaching Supervision The third route is organisational supervision, or internal supervision for coaching pools. Many organisations now understand the value of coaching. They train internal coaches, invest in coaching cultures and build internal coaching services. Yet once those coaches are trained, organisations often realise they need more support. They may not want to train an internal supervisor. They may want external objectivity. They may need help shaping how supervision should work across their coaching pool. This creates a strong commercial opportunity for trained coaching supervisors. You can partner with organisations to provide supervision, reflective practice sessions, CPD, upskilling and wider support for internal coaches. As more organisations develop coaching cultures, this area is likely to grow. For coaches who enjoy organisational work, this can be a powerful way to expand their business and increase their strategic impact.

Key Lessons Learned: Coaching supervision can be a natural next step for experienced coaches who are ready to evolve their practice. Supervision can add another layer of income, credibility and professional depth to a coaching business. One-to-one supervision allows coaches to build long-term, trusted and reflective relationships with other practitioners. Group supervision creates scalability, shared insight, community and a powerful learning environment. Organisational supervision is a growing opportunity as more businesses invest in internal coaching cultures. Supervision does not only support coaches. It also indirectly supports their clients, teams and organisations. Coaches do not need to wait until they feel like the most senior person in the room before exploring supervision training. Coaching supervision training can change how you coach, how you listen and how you understand relational dynamics.

Christopher Carter is the founder, Chairman, and CEO of Approyo, a Wisconsin-based managed services company that was one of the first to put SAP systems into the cloud (back in 2002). He founded Approyo in December 2013 to provide full SAP technology services with extensive capabilities in hosting, managing, upgrading, and migrating.Summary of PodcastKey TakeawaysData Quality is the AI Blocker: AI's value is limited by the "crap in, crap out" problem. Carter advises a mandatory data cleansing project before any AI initiative, as AI tools alone are insufficient and require human oversight.Human-in-the-Loop Governance: Carter advocates for a human-in-the-loop for all critical AI processes to prevent compounding errors. He criticized McKinsey's reported plan for 30,000 autonomous bots, arguing they should be tools to augment human employees, not replacements.Mugatu AI Prevents Data Leaks: Mugatu AI is an AI security tool that uses predictive analytics and homomorphic encryption to prevent accidental data leaks. It flags risky emails (e.g., with sensitive spreadsheets) and suggests secure alternatives like shared links.Early Cloud Adoption: Carter was an early pioneer in virtualising SAP systems on VMware and Azure, which initially met with corporate resistance but ultimately proved to be a cost-saving, flexible innovation for the SAP ecosystem.The "Crap In, Crap Out" ProblemCarter's core message: AI's effectiveness is directly tied to data quality.Problem: Legacy systems contain decades of "dirty data" from acquisitions, stagnant records, and inconsistent formats.Example: One client had 27 years of uncleansed EDI data.Example: Another client's acquisitions created duplicate part numbers (e.g., 7 different codes for the same part).Solution: A mandatory data cleansing project before any AI initiative.AI tools can assist with scraping and matching, but human oversight is essential for validation.The goal is a human-AI partnership to ensure data accuracy.Human-in-the-Loop GovernanceCarter advocates for a human-in-the-loop for all critical AI processes to prevent compounding errors.Critique of McKinsey's Bot Strategy: Carter questioned McKinsey's reported plan for 30,000 autonomous bots, arguing they should be tools to augment human employees, not replacements.Relevance to Finance (FP&A): Clean data and human-AI collaboration enable rapid scenario planning (e.g., 4 forecasts instead of 1), a major game-changer for finance teams.Mugatu AI: Preventing Accidental Data LeaksMugatu AI is an AI security tool named after the villain in the movie Zoolander.Function: Prevents accidental data leaks by flagging risky outbound emails.Mechanism: Uses predictive analytics and homomorphic encryption to analyse content in milliseconds.User Feedback: Provides a "security score" (0-100) and suggests secure alternatives (e.g., a shared link instead of an attachment).Status: 14,794 end-users across 3 major corporations; acquisition interest from companies like NVIDIA.Career as a Tech InnovatorCarter's career is marked by early adoption of disruptive tech, often ahead of corporate policy.SAP & Cloud Virtualisation:Pioneered virtualising SAP systems on VMware and later on Azure.This innovation initially met with resistance from SAP executives, who had not yet formalised a partnership with VMware.Re-engagement with SAP:After a negative client experience, Carter left the SAP ecosystem.A conversation with a friend (SAP's VP of Oil & Gas) over a bottle of Macallan scotch introduced him to SAP HANA, reigniting his interest.Carrick Rangers FC:A minority owner of the Northern Ireland Premier League football club.His involvement stems from a lifelong passion for soccer, including a past role as VP of Sales/Marketing for a professional team.

Why does dentistry on social media look so perfect? Are those flawless before-and-after cases the reality of everyday practice—or just the highlight reel? And why aren't we talking more openly about the failures, frustrations, and imperfect outcomes that every dentist experiences? In this episode, Dr Artem Mkrtichyan joins Jaz for a refreshingly honest conversation about the realities of modern dentistry. Known for his candid and relatable social media posts, Dr. Artem has built a following by sharing what many dentists think—but rarely say out loud: dentistry is hard, results aren't always perfect, and social media often paints an unrealistic picture of the profession. https://youtu.be/uTKaeewgrgE Watch IC074 on YouTube Key Takeaways Social media has become a powerful tool for dentists to connect and share experiences. Mistakes in clinical practice are common and should be openly discussed. Rural practice may not always lead to higher income as expected. Success in dentistry is subjective and varies for each individual. Continuous learning and skill development are crucial for career growth. Financial freedom in dentistry is not guaranteed and varies widely. Networking and mentorship can significantly impact career progression. Social media can be leveraged to attract patients and build a personal brand.
