Today's conversation from the AI for Good Summit in Geneva, Nathan and Scott explore the evolving role of AI in shaping a better world. The summit, held under the United Nations banner and inspired by Neil Sahota, marks its 10th anniversary by focusing on how AI can accelerate the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The discussion encompasses diverse topics, ranging from quantum technology to AI-assisted robotics, but it's the human impact that takes center stage.  Nathan and Scott reflect on the cultural nuances of AI adoption in the US, UK, and Mongolia, highlighting how urgency, regulation, and societal mindset influence progress. They examine the growing importance of AI governance and trust, particularly in the nonprofit sector, where AI is viewed not as a replacement for fundraisers but as a tool to strengthen relationships and enhance decision-making.  The episode encourages nonprofits to adopt internal AI policies, ask better questions of their vendors, and prioritize empathy and human connection in AI implementation. With practical tips and personal routines shared, this conversation reinforces a critical message: successful AI adoption starts with people, not just tech. As AI transforms industries, the focus must remain on curiosity, values, and long-term impact.  HIGHLIGHTS  [0:07] AI for Good Summit Overview   [03:09] Impact of AI on Workforce and Governance   [06:16] Cultural Differences in AI Adoption  [10:17] AI's Role in the Nonprofit Sector   [22:07] Imagination, Boundaries, and Thriving with AI  [27:07] AI Governance and Trust   [33:29] Practical Tips for AI Adoption  Connect with Nathan and Scott: LinkedIn (Nathan): ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠linkedin.com/in/nathanchappell/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ LinkedIn (Scott): ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠linkedin.com/in/scott-rosenkrans⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠fundraising.ai/⁠⁠

People in the U.S. get fewer days off than folks in Europe, and most of us still feel guilty taking them. Kim and Amy dive headfirst into a viral Reddit post that reads like a love letter to European work-life sanity (and a roast of U.S. grind culture). From vanishing vacations to broken healthcare, Kim reflects on what she's learned leading teams, taking parental leave, and watching her inbox balloon on every trip. They dig into the messy reality of “unlimited PTO,” why burnout can't be yoga'd away, and how leaders can build workplaces that actually honor rest. Plus, Kim reacts live to advice on this problem from her own Google Portrait—an AI that Kim helped design with Google to tackle workplace BS when real Kim is off the clock. It's part cultural reckoning, part vacation manifesto, and 100% Radical Candor. Get all of the show notes at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠RadicalCandor.com/podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

The Demystify Duo goes to Delphi! This is the place that used to be at the center of the ancient world, a bustling hub of commerce, politics, and religion. At the center of the place was the Delphic Oracle, an event as much as it was a location. Young girls ordained as Pythias would be locked into a room where they would huff volatile gases that emerged from a crack in the floor. As they muttered the details of their psychedelic visions into the ears of priests, they were transmuted into the counsel that would move the world. Today, nothing but ruins remain. As we walk through the scattered columns and shattered statues, we meditate on the nature of civilizations - how gods that rule the world rise and fall, how the people persist, and the lessons that can be gleaned from the olive shaded dust of this ancient place.

本集简介 / Episode Summary / エピソード概要：中文： 大家好！这期节目我想跟大家分享一次真实又漫长的回国经历：从东京新宿出发，到羽田机场，搭乘国航回北京。虽然一路上没有出什么大问题，但各种等待真的太多了——堵车、排队、安检、登机前等飞机、起飞延误、等行李……感觉整整一天都在“等”。我还聊到了一些生活上的小观察，比如飞机上的空调温度设定，以及中、美、日之间对“舒适温度”的不同感受。现在我已经顺利回到北京，准备先休息几天，再看看有没有机会和爸妈一起出去转转。你最近有旅行计划吗？欢迎留言或来信告诉我！English: Hi everyone! In this episode, I share my long but fairly smooth journey back to China from Tokyo. I left my hotel in Shinjuku, took a bus to Haneda Airport, and flew with Air China to Beijing. There weren't any major issues, but there was a lot of waiting—traffic, long lines, security, boarding delays, flight delays, baggage claim... it felt like I spent the whole day just waiting.I also talk about some small cultural observations, like how air conditioning temperatures feel different in the U.S., Japan, and China. I've now arrived in Beijing and plan to rest for a few days before possibly traveling somewhere with my parents.Do you have any travel plans? Feel free to leave a comment or message!日本語： みなさん、こんにちは！今回は、東京から北京への帰国旅についてお話しします。新宿のホテルを出発して羽田空港へ行き、中国国際航空で北京に向かいました。特にトラブルはなかったですが、とにかく待つ時間が多くて、渋滞、長い列、セキュリティ、搭乗前、遅延、手荷物受取……1日中ずっと待っていた感じでした。飛行機の空調温度や、アメリカ・日本・中国での「快適さ」の感じ方の違いなど、ちょっとした文化の違いにも触れています。今は無事に北京に着いて、少し休んでから、両親とどこかに出かけられたらいいなと思っています。皆さんは、旅行の予定がありますか？よかったらメッセージやコメントで教えてくださいね！ #回国旅途 #机场等待 #国航体验 #空调温度 #中日文化差异 #TravelToChina #AirChinaExperience #AirportDelays #CulturalDifferences #帰国の旅 #中国国際航空 #文化の違い 发短信给我！ Send me a text!Support the show如果您喜欢我的播客，欢迎通过下方方式表达您的支持。您的支持对我来说是巨大的鼓励。但无论如何，我都很感激有您作为听众。能够每周与您分享几分钟的时光，对我来说是莫大的荣幸。❤️ If you enjoy my podcast, you're welcome to show your support through the options below.

As a podcaster, crafting narratives in the public eye means making mistakes along the way is inevitable.

Michelle Glogovac welcomes psychotherapist and author Jennifer Cox to My Simplified Life for a candid conversation about her book Women Are Angry. They dive into how society views and polices women's anger, the emotional fallout of current events, and the political weight of expressing rage as a woman. The episode explores issues like body autonomy, how COVID disrupted women's support systems, and the deep connection between stress and physical health. Jennifer sheds light on why it's crucial for women to name their emotions, reclaim their anger, and take back their agency. If you've ever been told you're “too much” for feeling deeply—this one's for you. What We're Talking About... It's okay to be mad and express anger.
