In this episode of the Unlearn Podcast, I sit down with Cass Pratt, Chief Human Resources Officer at Progyny, to explore how HR is evolving into a design discipline that blends human connection with AI-powered productivity. From building bots to boost employee experience to reshaping how we think about roles in an automated world, Cass shares an honest look at how she's bringing people along on a transformation journey—with curiosity, experimentation, and heart.We discuss her pivotal decision to say yes to opportunities beyond her comfort zone, the strategic shifts she's leading inside a fast-scaling company, and why the future of HR is about enhancing humanity, not replacing it. If you're wondering what leadership looks like when AI meets empathy, this one's for you.Key TakeawaysUnlearning expertise-dependence: Cass shifted from relying on experts to co-creating solutions with AI tools before engaging others.AI as a force for elevation: At Progyny, AI is used to give employees time back, not take roles away—enabling deeper focus on human-centric work.Low-code leadership: Cass, a self-described non-technical leader, built HR bots and reimagined policies through practical AI applications.Scaling culture through consistency: AI chatbots improved response times, standardized answers, and gave insight into employee concerns.Embedding experimentation: Teams are encouraged to ask, "What should I stop doing?"—sparking a culture of reinvention and initiative.Additional InsightsProgyny's “Super Fans” initiative reframes AI gains as an opportunity to deepen customer and employee relationships.Training is done in cohorts to build shared understanding and reduce AI anxiety.Cross-functional collaboration with junior team members—like the intern who built the HR bot—shows how innovation can come from any level.Cass uses AI to simplify and globalize complex frameworks like competency models, improving alignment across teams and geographies.Episode Highlights00:00 – Episode Recap Cassandra Pratt shares how embracing discomfort led her to leap into healthcare, build a transformative HR function, and lead with AI—not to eliminate roles, but to elevate people and amplify their impact.02:37 – Guest Introduction: Cassandra Pratt Barry introduces Cass Pratt, Chief People Officer at Progyny, a fertility and family-building benefits company scaling rapidly with a human-first, tech-empowered culture.04:48 – Saying Yes to Growth Cass reflects on a missed opportunity that taught her the cost of saying no—and set her on a path to jump into unknowns with conviction.08:04 – Startup Lessons and Leadership Growth From 50 to 850 employees, Cass shares what it means to grow with a company and embrace mistakes as part of the journey.11:00 – Diving into AI Without a Tech Background Despite lacking technical skills, Cass threw herself into generative AI—learning by doing and discovering intuitive ways to drive value.13:10 – Unlearning the Expert Reflex Cass rethinks her default of turning to experts first—instead starting with AI to shape stronger ideas and bring others in as collaborators.15:13 – Redesigning Processes, Not Just Tools AI opened up opportunities to rethink workflows from scratch, not just automate existing inefficiencies.20:35 – Making AI Safe and Human Cass shares how transparent messaging, training, and cultural reinforcement helps ease AI anxieties and keep

Remember the classic holiday film Miracle on 34th Street? There's a point in the movie, after a suggestion by Kris Kringle, where the Macy's employees start instructing customers to go across the street to Gimbel's to purchase gifts at a better price. At first, management is flabbergasted by the suggestion, but then they realize the goodwill they are building with their customers.

Do you ever feel like your prayer is pointless? You show up, but you feel nothing, "know" nothing, and it seems like you're just talking to the void. This experience of spiritual dryness is one of the most common and difficult challenges in the spiritual life, and it's the number one reason many people stop praying altogether. In this episode, we explore the practical and profound antidote to this dryness: faith and hope. We dive into John Henry Newman's powerful distinction between "notional assent" (simply knowing and explaining facts about God) and "real assent" (letting those truths radically change how you live). This shift is the key to understanding what to do when your prayer feels empty. We discuss how this concept, combined with St. Teresa of Avila's "determined determination," responds to dryness. It's not a sign of failure or God's absence; it's a critical training ground to build a faith that isn't dependent on feelings. In this episode, you will learn: The crucial difference between "notional assent" and "real assent" and how it impacts your prayer.Why looking for God in your feelings or natural understanding is like trying to "force God into something that would make him not God."How to understand dryness as the training ground St.John of the Cross calls "naked faith."Practical ways to apply "determined determination" and use hope as the fuel to persevere, even when prayer feels pointless. Enjoying the episode? The journey does not have to end here.

In this episode of The Leader's Notebook, I continue my series “Also Featured in the Cast” by looking at the “St. Peter movie”—and the people who surrounded him. From James and John, the fiery “Sons of Thunder,” to John's quiet faithfulness at the foot of the Cross, to James the brother of Jesus who led the church in Jerusalem, to Paul's bold confrontation of Peter at Antioch, and even to Judas Iscariot, I explore the lives of those who shaped and challenged Simon Peter's journey. Their stories illuminate our own struggles with failure, forgiveness, calling, and grace.

In today's changing world, let us stay rooted in God's unchanging Word.

What did it actually feel like when the saints encountered God? For St. Philip Neri, it was a globe of fire bursting in his chest. For St. Teresa of Ávila, it was a burning spear of love that pierced her heart. For others, it was light, fragrance, peace, or the trembling stillness that fills the soul when heaven draws near. In this episode, we explore the sensory mystics of the Church, the saints who felt God in their bodies, and what their experiences reveal about prayer, love, and the incarnational way God reaches us.We'll look at the Church's teaching on consolations and mystical experience, and walk through vivid testimonies from saints like Teresa of Ávila, John of the Cross, Philip Neri, Catherine of Siena, Columba Marmion, Gemma Galgani, and more. Their stories remind us that God is not distant; He moves through every sense, every ache, every silence.If you've ever wondered what it means to “feel God,” or whether that moment of warmth, ache, or peace in prayer was real, this episode is for you.

Andrew Humberman BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Andrew Huberman remains at the center of the wellness and neuroscience conversation, making headlines this week as the New York Times-dubbed “Goop for men,” continuing to shape the global obsession with performance and longevity. EL PAÍS reports that Huberman's multi-million follower empire is defining a new class of “Huberman husbands,” men drawn to biohacking and daily optimization, further legitimizing the male wellness phenomenon. Critics and sociologists highlight his tangible influence on shifting cultural attitudes toward men's health but also caution against the repackaging of diet culture for new audiences.One of Huberman's most notable public appearances in recent days was his keynote at the Eudēmonia Summit on November 16, a gathering of leading thinkers in purpose-driven personal development. According to social media reports, his “historic speech” captivated the audience and reaffirmed his status as both a scientist and cultural thought leader. On Instagram, clips from the summit and behind-the-scenes moments garnered tens of thousands of likes, fueling conversations among followers about the balance between rigorous science and motivational guidance.Business-wise, the drive toward mass-market influence continues with aggressive pre-launch promotion for Huberman's forthcoming book, Protocols. Integrated into podcast episodes and social updates, this title promises science-based routines to boost brain function and energy. Cross-promotion is in full swing: listeners of the Huberman Lab podcast are urged to pre-order, and posts about the book appear alongside partnerships with premium health brands.In content, the Huberman Lab podcast released a new episode featuring Matt Abrahams of Stanford Business School on November 17. The episode provides a masterclass in communication, offering evidence-based guidance on clarity, confidence, and storytelling. This conversation quickly circulated on Instagram reels, with Huberman personally featuring tips for overcoming stage fright and improving public speaking, which sparked a surge in online engagement as users commented and shared their own communication hurdles.On the social media front, Huberman's content continues its viral momentum. His Instagram reels and cross-posts highlight collaborations with other high-profile figures, including gratitude to recent podcast guests. Viral moments this week include clips on confidence-building, as well as a widely shared reel summarizing key takeaways from the luminous Matt Abrahams episode.Although no personal controversies or dramatic departures occurred in the last several days, the media's fascination with the business of self-transformation and Huberman's role in it continues growing. Headlines frame him as both a wellness juggernaut and a flashpoint in ongoing debates about masculinity, self-improvement, and the limits of “bro science.” Public discourse is firmly focused on the substance and style of his advice, with Huberman's own words, appearances, and products driving the cultural conversation forward.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Alright, Mita is back with us on the pod. We're talking bad bosses, bad employees, bad attitudes and how to break the cycle of feeling bad at work. Here's the rundown of what we're talking about today at WORK. * Work friction is rising because roles, priorities, and expectations are unclear.* Layoffs create survivor guilt and overwhelm for the people who stay.* Leaders often skip rewriting roles or resetting priorities after org changes.* Ambiguity grows when bosses avoid conflict or lack clear direction from above.* Weekly priority meetings and repeat back communication cut through confusion.* Managing up is essential. Employees must surface gaps and ask for clarity.* Weak or absentee bosses create space for employees to lead and accelerate.* One on ones matter. Bring value so they never get canceled.* Boundaries break when people step into others' jobs to avoid their own.* Remote work increases miscommunication without consistent rituals and tools.* Generational tension stems from different eras of job security and loyalty.* Cross generational teams work best when everyone teaches and learns from each other.To learn more about Mita - Get her book “The Devil Emails at Midnight: What Good Leaders Can Learn From Bad Bosses.” This is WORK Conversations.

Hello, friend. I hope you're well today.  The last few episodes, we've seen Joshua and the Israelites face one obstacle after another. Well this week is a biggie – crossing the Jordan River. But this story isn't just about getting from one side of a river to the other. It's about how God delivers us from what stands between us and him.

“The atonement is the hinge on which all of spiritual warfare hangs.” In this episode, we're unpacking this statement as we delve into the concept of atonement and its critical role in spiritual warfare. To help understand the triumph of what Jesus Christ accomplished through His death & resurrection, we're walking through the acrostic C.R.O.S.S. (Covenant, Ransom, Ownership, Substitution, Subjugation).We lean into this concept of subjugation of the enemy and its implications for spiritual warfare, while also acknowledging the already-not-yet nature of the kingdom of God. Because of the atonement, we can have not only greater intimacy with God but also freedom from the enemy's enslavement.Thank you for joining us - father-daughter duo Marcus Warner and Stephanie Warner - on the trail to a deeper walk with God!

This Can Be Your Story (Part -1) | ഇത് നിങ്ങളുടെ കഥയാകാം (ഭാഗം -1) | Malayalam Christian Messages | Br. Damien Antony | Morning Glory Podcast - 1765 | 17 Nov 2025

Did you know that “Repentance” is not God's punishment — it's His invitation. It's not Him shouting, “I'm done with you,” but whispering, “Come home.”For too long, the word repent has sounded like a threat, but it's actually the sound of freedom. The Greek word metanoia means “to change your mind.” It's not simply apologizing; it's deciding, “I don't want death anymore — I want life.”Sin isn't just bad behavior; it's bad direction. And repentance is the U-turn of grace.Years ago, I could quote Scripture but not always live it with my words. My grandfather had taught me to fight with my mouth, and I brought that same fire into marriage. One night, after a heated argument, Michelle looked at me and said, “Matthew, your words still carry a sword — but not the Spirit.”The Holy Spirit spoke immediately: “This is repentance — not feeling sorry, but letting Me rebuild what pride keeps breaking.”That moment broke me. I realized repentance isn't God humiliating us — it's God healing us. When you turn around, you don't run into judgment; you run into mercy.2 Corinthians 7:10 says, “Godly sorrow produces repentance that leads to salvation without regret.” Worldly sorrow says, “I feel bad I got caught.” Godly sorrow says, “I can't stand being away from You.”That's what salvation starts with — a heart that says, “I've had enough of running.”Here's the truth: sin always leads to death. The Bible says, “The wages of sin is death.” But repentance opens the door to the greatest exchange in history — “The gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”That's why Jesus came. He didn't die to make you religious; He died to make you free. On the cross, He took every sin, every shame, every regret — and when He said “It is finished,” He meant it.You can't earn that forgiveness. You can't deserve it. You simply receive it.

"We had a massive fire. We lost everything, with the exception of one thing. In the living room, within the ashes, one thing survived, our Bible." ---------- At the base of Cross Mountain in Medjugorje, our guide had us bend down and pick up a small stone. She said to place all our worries, fears, and crosses on this tiny rock. Then, she told us to carry it in our pocket to the top and to leave it at the foot of the cross, surrendering it all to Christ. In this episode, I bring you along for the ascent, with audio from my fellow pilgrims Ben and Paul and the 20-plus souls who climbed with us. I also share a providential two-minute encounter with Claire, a listener whose own life reveals the gentle fingerprints of God—from her father's passing to a house fire that showed His hand. Together, our stories point to the daily cross, and the strength Christ gives to carry it. ---------- Share Your Story If you have a Touched by Heaven moment that you would like to share with Trapper, please leave us a note at https://touchedbyheaven.net/contact Our listeners look forward to hearing about life-changing encounters and miraculous stories every week.

In today's homily, Fr. Chris invites us to confront a reality many avoid: the Church teaches that we are living in the “end times”—not because the world is ending tomorrow, but because public revelation closed with the death of the last Apostle. As the liturgical year ends, the Gospel readings turn our attention to eschatology: the destruction of the Temple, the trials that precede the end, and the Second Coming of Christ. Jesus warns that earthly securities crumble, but the true Temple—His Eucharistic Presence and the soul living in grace—endures forever (cf. 1 Cor 3:16).Scripture is clear: “All who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted” (2 Tim 3:12). Fr. Chris explains how persecution purifies both the innocent and the guilty in the Church, reminding us that the Church is both divine and human—perfect in her doctrine, yet wounded in her members. Even so, Jesus promises that faithfulness leads to eternal life, even when earthly suffering seems overwhelming.Drawing on the witness of modern martyrs, especially Christians in Nigeria, Fr. Chris shows that God grants particular graces to those who suffer for the Gospel. Their serenity in the face of death mirrors the peace of the early martyrs, reminding us that Christian hope is not shaken by earthly violence. As Jesus told St. Faustina, He offers the world this “time of mercy” before the time of justice (Diary, 1160). Now is the moment to return to Him with trust.Whether through persecution, family tensions, daily misunderstandings, or the crosses we quietly bear, Christians are invited to unite their sufferings to the Cross, fulfilling St. Paul's words: “I complete what is lacking in Christ's afflictions for the sake of His body” (Col 1:24). Remaining faithful in a world of confusion is not fearmongering—it is the path to peace, hope, and eternal life. We belong to a Kingdom that cannot be shaken.#marian #marians #marianfathers #marianhelpers #divinemercy #thedivinemercy #catholic #catholicism #romancatholic #romancatholicism #frchrisalar #catholictiktok #endtimes #eschatology #catholichomily #persecution #martyrs #hope #trust #divinemercydevotion #jesusitrustinyou ★ Support this podcast ★

In September the ‘Unite the Kingdom' rally, organised by far-right activist Tommy Robinson, drew many thousands of people to London. Advertised as the UK's biggest ‘Free Speech Festival', speakers made calls to reaffirm Britain's Christian foundations. Many held wooden crosses and flags with Christian slogans, and the crowds were led in reciting the Lord's Prayer. In response to the march, a group of Church of England bishops and senior clergy joined leaders from across denominations to write a letter condemning the “co-opting or corrupting” of the Christian faith and symbols to exclude others. The letter said that ‘communities felt anxious, unsettled and even threatened by aspects of the march.'Meanwhile operation ‘Raise the Colours', a campaign to cover Britain in flags, has seen St. George's flags appear on lamp posts across England. Some see flying the flag as patriotism, while others are concerned and say the movement is underpinned by far-right nationalists.Today we'll explore the issues. Why is it different to fly a Welsh Flag or a St. George's Cross? What is the difference between patriotism and nationalism? In what way was the ‘Unite the Kingdom' march unsettling and exclusionary to others? Delyth Liddell is joined by Reverend Rhys Llwyd, leader of a Welsh speaking Baptist Church in Caernarfon, North Wales. The Rt Rev Philip North, Bishop of Blackburn who has recently written an article arguing that the flying of flags is a cry from long neglected communities. Suzanne Philpott lives near Swansea. She attended the ‘Unite the Kingdom' rally in September and is a Christian. Ross Hendry is from Llanelli and is the CEO of Christian Action Research and Education. He was a joint signatory of the letter “Do not ‘co-opt' the cross to divide."
