Podcasts about Cutting Corners

In this episode, we're diving into a particularly timely question: “Can you afford to cut corners when it comes to your nutritional choices?”This discussion stems from our latest article, exploring how what we absorb, not just what we eat, truly shapes our wellbeing. That means looking beyond the plate, to the quality, bioavailability, and integrity of the nutrients we choose.Together, we'll examine how common myths, clever food marketing, and external pressures, like the cost-of-living squeeze, can lead us to compromise on quality, often without realising it.Recent statistics from the Health Food Manufacturers Association reveal that over 70% of UK adults take nutritional supplements, and nearly half take them daily—a trend amplified during the pandemic and public focus on immune resilience. But now, more than ever, many are opting for cheaper, mass-produced supplements, sacrificing the higher-quality, organic, or more bioavailable forms for price alone.In this episode, I'll unpack:Why bioavailability matters—the gap between what we eat and what our bodies can use.The subtle ways misinformation and marketing skew our decisions.Actions you can take to make nourishing choices that won't undermine your wellbeing or your wallet.Whether you're a wellness-savvy individual, a supplement follower, or simply keen on practical nutrition, this episode offers a refreshingly balanced, evidence-based thought partnership.So let's explore the question: Are you truly saving money, or potentially compromising your health, by cutting corners? Let's get started.

Michelle Dwight has a notebook of what she calls weird and wonderful ideas. These ideas become convertible dresses and swimwear for curvy women. She started her brand, Aulieude, as a young designer wanting stylish, sustainable fashion. As her business has grown, she's learned to apply her creativity to her business and not just her designs. As she's grown too, she's decided what things are and are not worth compromising. In episode 121, hear how the Aulieude customer has grown up as Michelle has, how Michelle's lifestyle has played into her business decisions over the years, and why business values are extra important when you are ready to scale. As a girl, Michelle loved creating beauty from the found materials around her. Often shopping clothes to sew into something new and pattern making from intuition on her spotlight mannequin with A4 printer paper and sticky tape. She made platform shoes in woodwork, leather working, making corsetry, consistently fascinated by the construction of various mediums. Michelle would dress her sister and her friends up in her creations and emulate vogue editorial shoots with an old SLR camera and a vision. Aulieude was founded in 2017 by our then 23 year old Designer, Michelle Dwight, making dresses from her bedroom. After studying at Sydney's Fashion Design Studio and working in the Fast fashion industry, Michelle grew tired of flimsy garments and wanted to craft quality fits that would be loved over a lifetime. Passionate about sustainability, she set out to create conscious clothing that didn't compromise on style. In lieu of (‘Au Lieu De') shapeless eco fashion on the market, Michelle took pride in carefully constructing flattering feminine silhouettes that celebrated a woman's curves – designing adjustable and multiway pieces that tailor to the wearer's unique shape and style. Gaining a loyal following in the Market stalls of Sydney and Melbourne, Aulieude transitioned to selling exclusively online. They have since proudly expanded their size range, introduced original prints and formal wear as well as their most recent category, Swim! Every Aulieude garment is pattern made by hand in Michelle's Melbourne Studio by the designer herself. Aulieude samples are made for Michelle's curvy body and she fits each creation on models of various sizes to make sure that the quality and fit of the pieces are absolutely perfect for you. Michelle, now 32, is continually inspired by the wonderful community of women Aulieude has garnered. Strong, caring women who own their femininity and deserve to be supported and empowered. Engaging with and serving this community brings so much joy and fulfilment that continues to inspire the collections to come. This episode explores: Fitting the customer Who Michelle designs for What Michelle learned about her customers at markets The new “risky” category that Aulieude recently added Why Alieude changed how its pieces are sized Fitting the lifestyle How much Michelle saved up to start Aulieude and fund her first production run  The big mistake Michelle made when she attended her first market How Michelle's lifestyle has played into her business decisions The reason Michelle didn't want to be the face of Aulieude initially and what changed her mind How Michelle has grown as her business has Fitting the values Why values are super important when you are ready to scale your business An aspect of sustainability that many fashion founders overlook Why Michelle travels to visit her factory (it is NOT to check in on production) People and resources mentioned in this episode: Aulieude website Aulieude Instagram Aulieude email Do you want fashion business tips and resources like this sent straight to your inbox?

As usual, AI slop shownotes for anyone who wants to read them. Enjoy!In this packed episode of The Two Jacks, Jack the Insider and Hong Kong Jack cut through a huge week in politics, policy, and sport. They kick off with life on the bike lanes and the four‑day work week debate before diving into Australia's productivity roundtable: where progress might actually come from, why energy costs and regulation matter most, and how timid politics strangles reform. They spar over tax design, housing, stamp duty, and the red tape that inflates costs without improving quality.From there, the Jacks range across global flashpoints and US turbulence—Israel–Australia tit-for-tat visas, the Ukraine–Russia talks fallout, the limits of sanctions, and whether the West has the will for long wars. Stateside, they dissect rising US inflation pressures, Congress's stock-trading problem, and the “picking winners” trap in industrial policy. Locally, they tackle the Greens in Tasmania, crime perception vs data, and Australia's defense priorities in a drone-dominated future—before a big sports wrap: AFL finals implications from homophobic slur bans, NRL ladder-shaping clashes, cricket's farewell to Bob Simpson, the Wallabies' breakthrough at Ellis Park, and Sydney's Allianz Stadium turf debacle.Timestamped segments and takeaways 00:00:01 – Cold open, weather and bike lanesBanter on soggy Sydney/Melbourne and bike lane hazards.Takeaway: Urban transport design vs pedestrian safety—light opener that foreshadows policy tradeoffs.00:02:23 – Four‑day work week and productivity roundtableJack the Insider outlines ACTU's four‑day week ask; government quickly cools it.Hong Kong Jack: flexible, case-by-case four‑day arrangements can work well; blanket mandates don't.Notable quote (Hong Kong Jack): “It really is a case-by-case basis… it can be done—it just can't be done across the board.”00:04:26 – Housing, commuting, and productivity dragLong commutes as a hidden productivity killer; WFH rights expanding in Victoria but role-dependent.00:06:47 – AI regulation “light touch”Productivity Commission signals minimal regulation; Jack the Insider flags creator rights concerns.00:07:51 – Where productivity gains might come fromHong Kong Jack: “The two obvious areas to attack are regulation and energy costs.”00:08:17 – Energy transition, prices, and investmentJack the Insider: transition and decades of policy drift drove high prices; grid infrastructure is the bottleneck.Coal vs renewables economics; investment won't return to coal due to horizon risk.00:12:00 – Cutting “red tape”: harmonization and tax settingsFederation frictions; harmonise state regs; stamp duty singled out as a worst tax.Building codes ballooning costs while quality supervision lags.00:14:24 – Build quality crises and supervision gapsMascot/Zetland examples; spate of vacated towers; cheap builds, high prices.00:15:40 – Political capital, timid reform, and election calculusIs Albanese Labor's John Howard—few big-ticket reforms, focus on winning?Take reforms to an election (GST precedent), but reformers often punished at the polls.00:24:45 – Israel–Australia visa spatSimcha Rothman's visa withdrawn; Israel responds by revoking visas for Australians to the Palestinian Authority; both sides flex sovereignty.Notable quote (Hong Kong Jack): “This is just how it works.”00:27:28 – Failed asylum seekers backlog nearing 100kProcessing delays create perverse incentives; most rejected claimants retain work/study rights—encourages low‑merit claims.Enforcement throughput is minimal; backlog self‑feeds.00:32:07 – Tasmania: Greens hold line on stabilityGreens won't back Labor no-confidence; Premier continues; different cultures in Tas vs NSW Greens.00:36:32 – Vale Terence StampPersonal memories; Priscilla role noted; a prickly but great actor.00:38:00 – Ukraine–Russia: Alaska talks flop, semantics vs substanceOptics criticised; ceasefire vs peace semantics; limits of sanctions and Western will.Debate: Can Ukraine regain Crimea/Donbas?

“I wish I didn't have to deal with these dryland corners on my fields. They are more trouble than they are worth.” This offhand remark from a farmer has led to a full-fledged research initiative at Farming Smarter to explore how farmers manage these tricky, often-overlooked portions of irrigated fields. The new project is entitled No Cutting Corners: Realizing the Sustainable Potential of Dryland Corners. Ashley Wagenaar, Conservation Agronomist at Farming Smarter, is super excited to explore farms' different strategies for managing these areas. She believes they can provide value to anyone interested in changing their approach or seeking advice on managing these areas differently.

By sharing personal experiences and insights, the discussion centers on balancing saving with investing in quality services—both for business growth and personal well-being._Key TakeawaysMindset on ROI:While saving is important, don't cut corners on investments that help your business grow.Growing Your Business:Early on, you might stick to a tight budget. But as your revenue increases, it's time to level up your support—whether that's your accountant, lawyer, or other professionals. Don't be the “big fish” in a small pond.Personal Money Matters:It's smart to save a bit of each paycheck, but also invest in yourself. As your income grows, consider spending a little more on quality services or even better personal health choices like improved meal options or a gym that offers more than the basics.The Hidden Costs of Being Too Cheap:Always choosing the lowest price might seem smart now, but it can lead to costly mistakes down the line. Sometimes, paying a little more up front saves you from expensive problems later.When to Make a Change:If you're constantly managing or fixing your service providers, that's a sign it might be time to upgrade.

In the Old Testament Law, God said that when harvesting a field, anything left over after the harvesting should be left in the field for the poor, widows and orphans. God has blessed us with so much, but we tend to hold onto everything we have so tightly. Rather than being selfish with what we have, we should share it and bless someone else.

Old Testament law declares that when you harvest a field, anything left over once the harvesting process is finished should be left in the field for the orphans, the widows, and the poor. So why do we tend to hoard what God has given to us? We've been blessed with so much, but with that comes a responsibility and an opportunity for us to turn around and bless others who are in need.

Our guest on this week's episode is Zac Rogers, associate professor of operations and supply chain management, Colorado State University. 2025 is just two weeks old and most of us have barely settled into the new year.  Considering the unknown economic outlook, politics, possible tariffs, and ongoing turmoil around the world, it could be another interesting and a possibly volatile year for supply chains. Our guest shares his insights based data from on his role in helping to produce the monthly Logistics Managers' Index.We're in the middle of the transition season for a new administration in Washington DC. There are a lot of unknowns in this time of change, but one thing that's definitely happening is that business interests are busy lobbying politicians to protect their interests. And this week we saw some details that show what policies supply chain interest groups might want to happen in coming years. This was news from the American Association of Port Authorities (AAPA), which released an eight-point wish-list for its recommended policy agenda to support the nation's seaports.Manufacturing and logistics workers are raising a red flag over workplace quality issues according to industry research released this week. And it's all related to internal and external pressures that are causing workers to cut corners, risking both safety and compliance demands.  Supply Chain Xchange  also offers a podcast series called Supply Chain in the Fast Lane.  It is co-produced with the Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals. A series of ten episodes is now available on the "State of Logistics." The episodes provide in-depth looks into the current states of key transportation modes, such as trucking, rail, air, and ocean. It also looks at inventory management, 3PLs and more.  All ten episodes are available to stream now. Go to your favorite podcast platform to subscribe and to listen to past and future episodes.

Opportunities that look divine are not always divine. Welcome to the Daily Devo. I am Vince Miller. Yesterday, David escaped to the Strongholds of Engedi; Saul pursued him with 3000 soldiers and then exposed himself by relieving himself in the cave David was in. So let's see what happens next in 1 Samuel 24:4-7. And the men of David said to him, “Here is the day of which the Lord said to you, ‘Behold, I will give your enemy into your hand, and you shall do to him as it shall seem good to you.'” Then David arose and stealthily cut off a corner of Saul's robe. And afterward David's heart struck him, because he had cut off a corner of Saul's robe. He said to his men, “The Lord forbid that I should do this thing to my lord, the Lord's anointed, to put out my hand against him, seeing he is the Lord's anointed.” So David persuaded his men with these words and did not permit them to attack Saul. And Saul rose up and left the cave and went on his way. — 1 Samuel 24:4-7 Three critical moments in this story teach one valuable lesson in spiritual leadership. First | Misinterpreted Messages David's men confidently whisper to David that this is his divine opportunity. They apply an earlier declaration that God had made about the Philistines in Keilah (1 Samuel 23:4) to the present situation. But it's wrongly applied. David's men saw a "divine" opportunity to do something less than divine and altered God's message to match the present moment. We have all been guilty of this. It's easy to misinterpret or selfishly interpret promises of God when our emotions are heightened, or we feel cornered. The messages in our minds can be louder than the messages in God's Word. Second | Stealthy Sword With remarkable stealth, David manages to sneak up behind Saul while he's in a vulnerable moment—literally with his pants down—and cuts off a corner of Saul's robe. We cannot gloss over the fact that David's sword was incredibly sharp (we assume Goliath's sword), and his approach stealthy. Yet, instead of using the sword to chop off Saul's head (as he had with Goliath), he cut a corner of his garment. The deep conviction that struck David was powerful enough that it stopped in his tracks. This required incredible emotional restraint and faith in God. In moments when we hold power in our hands, it's critical to remember that great power is demonstrated in restraint and faith when we act according to God's will, not our own. Third | Confronting Counsel After David crawls back, he speaks to his men about his conviction. He realizes that cutting Saul's robe, while small in comparison to cutting off his head, was still dishonoring the Lord's anointed. David tore into his men with a strong rebuke. His allies counseled him to act and David confronted their counsel. Sometimes, our closest allies counsel us toward choices that seem good but violate God's will. In those moments, we need the courage to question and confront ungodly counsel—even when it seems reasonable and justified. Opportunities that look "divine" are not always divine. Opportunities are merely opportunities with two results—a godly result or an ungodly result. In threatening or emotional moments, it's tempting to see a divine moment that is not a divine moment. It is simply a selfish moment deceptively portrayed as divine. This makes me wonder if when David was crawling up behind Saul, he looked down at Goliath's sword and his reflection, thinking to himself: "Should I use the sword God gave me to cut down the enemy of God's anointed to cut down God's anointed?" As you are given opportunities today to lead, be cautious, especially when you are emotional or cornered. You might be given an opportunity to do something divine or less than divine. Then do God's will, not your own, because spiritual leadership is only spiritual leadership when it is spiritually alligned with God's Will. #DivineDiscernment, #SpiritualLeadership, #DavidAndSaul

Is the urge to quit underneath your urge for food? In this episode, I offer this desire for relief as a possible reason you want to go off-plan and explain how cutting corners when things get hard is never going to create the results you want. I encourage you to get clear on the outcomes you're working towards through this approach and offer ways to think about things so that you keep taking action to create NEW RESULTS, rather than staying stuck in the same old cycle that you feel unsatisfied with. www.sallywebstercoaching.com

Turnkey property investing can be a great option when you are just starting out on your real estate investing journey or when you want to cast a wider net with your investments beyond your local area. When done right, turnkey investment can be a part of a long-term real estate portfolio-building strategy. However, with turnkey investing, the same things that make it an attractive investment formula are also those that can make it challenging. The most significant challenge is dealing with potential issues that can arise from investing in properties long distance. The one question most people ask when they consider turnkey property investing is: “How do I confidently invest from a distance and still make sure my property performs well if I am not there to oversee it directly?” Learn more about your ad choices.

We all have people in our lives that are hard to love. Jesus tells us to “love our enemies” but how are we supposed to do that? David was running for his life from King Saul, and came to a moment when God brought them face to face. David had every right to kill Saul, but he didn't! He had an honoring view of others, a humble view of himself, and a holy view of God. The only truth that can empower us to love our enemies is knowing that we have been loved by God. We don't have to cut corners like the world does when it comes to forgiveness; we can love freely.
