The conversation begins with introductions from experts specializing in dairy genetics, reproductive management, transition cow health, and calf monitoring technologies, providing insight into how precision dairy tools are being applied across the dairy industry. 0:00-6:21 The panel then explores the evolution of computer vision and artificial intelligence, discussing how modern dairy technologies are moving beyond simple data collection to deliver actionable insights that help producers solve real-world challenges. They also examine technology adoption trends, workforce development, and the barriers farms continue to face, including connectivity and technical support. 9:32-24:08 A major focus of the discussion is precision health monitoring for transition cows and calves. The experts explain why the transition period remains one of the most critical opportunities for intervention and how emerging technologies can help identify animals needing attention while addressing the challenges of managing "yellow cows" that fall between healthy and sick. 24:08-36:11 Looking toward the future, the panel explores digital twin technology, genetic considerations, calf health monitoring, audio sensing, and innovative approaches such as Wi-Fi-based cattle monitoring systems. The discussion highlights how these emerging technologies may further advance precision dairy management in the coming years. 36:11-45:55 The episode concludes with a discussion on dairy welfare monitoring, AI model development, and reinforcement learning, emphasizing the importance of transforming large amounts of farm data into meaningful information that supports animal wellbeing and management decisions. 46:41-52:10 Please subscribe and share with your industry friends.

Most of us think we're good at reading people — until something hits a nerve. Here's the quiet truth: you already know the truth about the person you're trying to figure out. You've just decided to believe the promise instead of the pattern. In this episode, I break down the difference between a pattern (what's already happened, more than once, without you asking) and a promise (what only lives in words) — and why reasonable, thoughtful people are the ones who stay the longest. It's not a romance problem. It's the same move in love, in friendship, and in business. I tell you the true stories that taught me this the hard way — including the fraudulent buyer we gave grace to for months while she quietly took everything, and why we let it happen: we weren't believing her, we were believing the sale. A promise gets its power not from the person making it, but from how badly you want it to be true. If you caught Episode 99, this is its companion — that one was about the conversations you replay; this one is about the promises you keep believing anyway.

Welcome to episode #1051 of Thinking With Mitch Joel (formerly Six Pixels of Separation). Dr. Sebastian Wernicke has built his career at the intersection of data science, artificial intelligence, economics, and decision-making. He leads the Data Science and AI team at Oxera, one of Europe's leading economics consultancies, and has become widely recognized for his ability to make complex ideas about data both accessible and deeply human. Many people first encountered Sebastian through his memorable TED Talk, which cleverly used data to satirize TED Talks themselves, but his work has always been driven by a much bigger question: how can organizations use data to challenge assumptions instead of reinforcing them? His new book, Data Inspired - Building An Organizational Culture Of Inquiry For Lasting Transformation, argues that businesses have become too focused on being "data-driven" and not focused enough on becoming "data-inspired." In this episode, Sebastian explains why more data doesn't automatically lead to better decisions, why confirmation bias often causes us to use data to strengthen existing beliefs, and why the greatest value of data lies not in optimization but in transformation. We also discuss the promises and disappointments of big data, the rise of generative AI, synthetic data, AI agents, and why the hardest challenge facing organizations isn't technological... it's cultural. Along the way, Sebastian makes a compelling case that leadership is ultimately about designing environments where people are encouraged to ask better questions, embrace uncertainty, and use evidence to change their minds rather than defend them. It is a thoughtful conversation about data, intelligence, curiosity, and why the organizations that thrive in the AI era will be the ones that build cultures of inquiry instead of cultures of certainty.

Artificial intelligence is becoming increasingly capable of doing more than processing information. It can recognize patterns, interpret human behavior, influence decisions, and increasingly interact with the world in ways that resemble aspects of human cognition. In this episode, we dive into this complex subject with Rana Gujral, AI entrepreneur, CEO of Behavioral Signals, and author of the upcoming book The AI Instinct: The Future of AI and Human Decision-Making, releasing August 31, 2026. Rana brings a perspective shaped by years of working at the intersection of artificial intelligence, cognitive science, voice technology, and human behavior. His work explores how machines can interpret signals such as tone, emotion, intent, and risk — and what happens when these capabilities begin influencing the decisions people make… The conversation explores: How AI is changing the way humans make decisions. The relationship between artificial intelligence and human cognition. What Cognitive AI can reveal about emotion, intent, and behavior. The evolution from today's AI systems toward AGI and more advanced forms of intelligence. As CEO of Behavioral Signals, Rana works on AI systems that analyze speech and behavioral signals to help organizations understand intent, emotion, and risk. His career has also included founding and building technology companies, leading product innovation at Logitech, and working across AI, robotics, cybersecurity, and voice intelligence.

What if the stuckness you're feeling right now isn't a problem to fix, but a signal that real change is on its way?Steph unpacks the discomfort of feeling stuck and reframes it as one of the clearest signals of impending transformation. Rather than treating stuckness as suffering to push through, she encourages listeners to see it as an invitation for personal growth and change. Steph explores how indecisiveness quietly fuels stagnation, and why survival mode narrows our creativity and ability to problem-solve. At the heart of the conversation is a simple but powerful reframe: beliefs are decisions we make every day, which means we have the power to choose differently at any moment. With resilience and empowerment as the throughline, Steph shows how intentional decisiveness becomes the catalyst for real transformation.In this episode you'll discover:Why stuckness should be treated as a signal, not sufferingHow indecisiveness quietly fuels feelings of stagnationWhy survival mode limits your creativity and ability to problem-solveYour takeaways:You'll learn why feeling stuck isn't suffering, it's a signal for growthYou'll discover how beliefs are simply decisions you can change at any momentYou'll find out why making decisions, not waiting, is the key to breaking free from stagnationChapters00:00 Understanding Stuckness: A Path to Growth06:11 The Power of Decision-Making in Overcoming Stuckness

For 10 years, Amy Jo Martin has asked hundreds of entrepreneurs, creators, athletes and cultural icons one deceptively simple question: Why Not Now?   In this special 10-year anniversary episode of the Why Not Now? podcast, the person usually behind the scenes steps up to the mic. Longtime producer Richard Grewar joins Amy Jo to look back at a decade of conversations, unexpected moments and lessons that have shaped the show - and both of their lives.   They go back to the beginning: launching the podcast from a boat in San Diego, landing Mark Cuban as their first guest and figuring out production as they went. From there, they revisit memorable conversations with guests including Tony Robbins, Matthew McConaughey, Billy Corgan and more, along with the moments that proved some of the most powerful stories don't always come from the biggest names.   Amy Jo and Richard also unpack how podcasting has changed over the past decade, why genuine curiosity still beats a perfectly prepared question, and what producing hundreds of hours of conversation can teach you about listening, decision-making, the power of a follow up question and knowing when not to edit out the silence.   There are stories about recording through steam trains, unreliable Wi-Fi, an RV and even a makeshift studio near the NICU. But at its core, this episode is about what happens when you keep following your curiosity - even when you don't know where it's leading.   Ten years later, the question remains the same.   Why Not Now?   Amy Jo Martin speaks globally on Humanizing AI, Leadership, Decision-Making, and the Future of Work.

(Where do I find it?)Aim: Situational Awareness through Information Collection and Triage Orientates the leader and team to the information conditions and helps them understand the information that's currently available, what information is needed, where there may be gaps in the information and where that can be sourcedQuestion 2 – What needs to happen with this information? (Who needs to know?)Aim: Action and CommunicationTurns actionable information into assigned tasks and establishes reporting priorities so that the team is aligned and moving with shared understanding of the situation. Reinforces information priority to those that need it the most, ie those in the team.Question 3 – What is the plan and the expected outcome? (When will I reassess?)Aim: Task Execution and ReassessmentPrompts execution of the plan, with the addition of a reassessment trigger. Every plan should include a defined point at which the leader asks whether the situation has changed and whether the plan needs to change with it.Omada's IWIPE-A Debrief Framework:I - Incident SummaryW - What went well?I - ImprovesP - Plan going forwardE - EquipmentA - AccountabilitySend us a message

What if you're not actually indecisive? What if you're taking in so much information that you can't hear yourself anymore? For empaths, making a decision can mean processing far more than the decision itself. There's what you want - and then there's someone else's disappointment, your partner's opinion, your family's expectations, another reading, another podcast, another Reddit thread, another certification, and one more attempt to get absolutely certain before you move. In this episode of Your Yes Filled Life, Brenda shares how she knew as early as 2000 that teaching was no longer sustainable for her... and then spent 22 more years finding her way out. She explores what happened when she allowed other people's opinions about her career to become more valuable information than her own lived experience. You'll learn three ways to begin separating what you actually know from all the additional information you're processing: Capture what you know before you poll the room. Stop automatically treating someone else's reaction as information about your decision. Notice when “I need more information” may actually mean “I want certainty.” Brenda also shares a client story about what changed when one woman developed enough nervous-system capacity to stop organizing her choices around other people's reactions, and what Brenda is noticing among people who repeatedly seek another reading or answer even after they've already received one. Because self-trust doesn't mean knowing the right answer every time. It means trusting yourself to respond to what happens after you choose. ✨ YES TO ME happens live September 15 from 6–8 PM Pacific. Bring the decision, relationship, boundary, opportunity, change, or desire you've been circling. You don't need to arrive knowing your answer. You can come fully in the wobble.

Episode Description What if choosing a niche isn't limiting your freedom—but actually the thing that could help you make more money? In this episode, Dielle Charon kicks off her Million Dollar Niche series by sharing how niching down took her from making $10K as a life and career coach to $40K as a side hustle coach, $300K as a general business coach, and eventually millions of dollars as a sales coach for women of color. She breaks down why a niche is simply a specialty—not a cage or an identity—and why getting more specific helped her grow her audience, get clients better results, and make more sales. Dielle also gets into the deeper reason so many entrepreneurs resist choosing a niche: making a decision can feel like giving up the freedom you became an entrepreneur to have. She shares why your resistance to niching may have nothing to do with your business, why constantly changing what you sell can create uncertainty for buyers, and how becoming a more decisive business owner can help you finally move forward. This is Part 1 of the Million Dollar Niche series. If you've been stuck between multiple niches, afraid you'll choose the wrong one, or wondering whether you even need a niche anymore, start here.

Your team won't make decisions because you're always available to make them. Employee decision-making is the critical element that separates founder-dependent companies from team-driven ones. In this episode, Gene shares a breakthrough from one of his founder clients who discovered that strategic unavailability forces his team to think independently. By blocking off time and removing himself from the equation, his leadership team started making decisions without him and built the ownership and grit required to scale. You'll learn why your availability is the enemy of employee decision-making, how to design strategic unavailability as a delegation framework, and why stepping back is the fastest way to move from bottleneck to freedom. Employee decision-making isn't given. It's claimed when your team has no choice but to think for themselves. If you want a business that runs without you, start here. Episode Highlights & Time Stamps 0:09 Too Available Hurts Decisions 3:53 Absence Forces Growth 6:09 Strategic Unavailability Works What You'll Learn ✅Why being too available can unintentionally create employee dependency ✅How leaders can empower employees to think and make decisions for themselves ✅Why confidence and ownership grow through real decision-making experience ✅How to create decision-making frameworks that employees can actually use ✅The importance of distinguishing between decisions employees can make and decisions that require leadership involvement ✅How strategically stepping away can accelerate team development ✅Why founders should schedule intentional time away from the business ✅How the concept of one-way doors and two-way doors can help teams make decisions faster ✅Why mistakes and setbacks are essential to developing leadership capacity ✅How to move from working in the business to working on the business Resources & Next Steps Ready to take your leadership energy to the next level?

Summary In this episode, Andy sits down with Johan Roos, professor and executive advisor at Hult International Business School, Executive Director of the Peter Drucker Society Europe, and co-inventor of the LEGO® Serious Play® method. Johan is the author of Human Magic: Leading with Wisdom in an Age of Algorithms, and he has spent decades studying how people think, create, decide, and lead together. Andy and Johan explore the two paths Johan calls erosion and amplification, starting with a question Andy has been wrestling with as he hands more of his manual driving over to Tesla's self-driving. You'll hear what an eroding project manager actually looks like day-to-day, why practical wisdom matters when the analytically optimal answer is not the wisest one, and how AI feeds one kind of curiosity, the laser, while starving another, the radar. Johan also explains the difference between becoming an AI concierge and practicing what he calls professional citizenship, and he shares what parents can do to help their kids hold onto the messy, hands-on curiosity that machines cannot supply. If you're looking for a thoughtful, hopeful way to use AI without surrendering your judgment, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "Almost every good idea I've had was not in front of the screen." "I know what to do, but I've stopped understanding why.".... The eroding project management can no longer explain the why." "So in a sense, they argue that the better the system, the stronger pull down the erosion curve." "So the message is really when the machines are taking over more and more of some of these subtle, very valuable capabilities we have, we have to climb the value creation ladder." "So a complexity is exactly where our wisdom gets exposed." "So every metric said fantastic, but nobody asked why, and is this right?" "If AI can write a document that is important to you, the document was never where the value lived." "But we just have to be careful to not sort of delegate too much of our brain power and sort of erode our jelly bean." "When you lean back and you haven't struggled enough, you may be super smart and, and the best brilliant individual in the world, but, you know, friction is good." "Are you able to argue for your case without holding on to the AI-produced slide?" "Protect the wandering curiosity, unstructured exploration, questions with no immediate payoff, the freedom to follow something nowhere in particular."

When was the last time somebody stopped your line and you thanked them for it? Toyota built the andon cord into the line decades ago and most plants still treat pulling it as a failure. Dr. Michael Gillespie, organizational psychologist at the University of South Florida and co-author of Distancing with David Marquet, studies why the person closest to a problem is often the least able to see it. Being locked inside your own point of view is the default setting, not an occasional lapse, which is how five people can walk up to one stopped line and each honestly see a different problem. Nobody is lying. Everybody is immersed. Mike walks Trevor through the three moves that create distance, be someone else, be somewhere else, be sometime else, and shares the research on why higher performing hospital units report more errors rather than fewer. Trevor brings the plant floor version, including the moment he admits he spent years defending his own department instead of the whole line, and applies temporal distancing live to a month-end budget decision every operations leader will recognize. Ends with one exercise you can try tonight, and it sounds cheesy until you read the research behind it. A practical conversation about decision making, critical thinking, and manufacturing team leadership for plant managers, operations directors, and frontline supervisors.

Hello, Voices of the Bench community. This is Casey Baldwin with Ivoclar. If you've been curious about fast-firing zirconia to improve efficiency but aren't convinced it can deliver predictable, high-quality results, I'd encourage you to connect with us. Our new IPS emax Zirconia, offers multiple fast-fire protocols designed to help you save valuable production time while maintaining consistent outcomes. Time is money in every lab. Don't wait. Reach out today and discover how IPS emax Zirconia can help streamline your workflow. As full-arch dentistry continues to grow, so do the demands on today's dental laboratories. That's why Knight Dental recently launched SimplyARCH Studio, a dedicated production environment built exclusively for full-arch restorations. To support this specialized workflow, Knight invested in an XTCERA milling system and carefully evaluated multiple CAM software solutions before choosing hyperDENT. The decision came down to exceptional milling quality, minimal hand finishing, and impressive production efficiency. But what truly set hyperDENT apart was the implementation process. From the very beginning, the team provided more than software training—they shared the knowledge and experience needed to build an optimized workflow for complex full-arch cases. With proven expertise in advanced milling strategies and laboratory production, hyperDENT helped ensure SimplyARCH Studio was designed for long-term success from day one. Join us at the Race For the Future 12 to raise money for the Foundation For Dental Laborary Technology. September 27th in Valley View, Texas! https://dentallabfoundation.org/news-events/race-for-the-future/ Shawn Nowak from Nowak Dental Supplies joins Elvis and Barb to talk all things NOLA LabFest October 15-17th, including the welcome addition to the speaker lineup: martial arts instructor and business coach Jude Grayson. After Jude's keynote at last year's LabFest, the response was strong enough to bring him back for another keynote and a breakout session. The conversation starts with the obvious question: what the heck does a karate instructor know about the dental laboratory industry? As Jude explains, quite a bit. Having practiced martial arts since he was five years old and built a career around teaching, competition, entrepreneurship, and business coaching, Jude draws a surprising number of parallels between martial arts and business. He talks about discipline, competition, confidence, risk, and his “five-year-old board break moment”—the idea that sometimes the ability to succeed is already inside us, and the right coach simply helps unlock it. He also explains how those lessons translate into working with business owners and helping them recognize opportunities they may not see themselves. The conversation then turns toward one of the biggest challenges facing dental laboratories today: knowing when it's time to pivot. With technology, AI, 3D printing, changing doctor workflows, and the evolving DSO landscape continuing to reshape the industry, Jude's NOLA LabFest keynote will focus on how business owners can recognize when change is necessary, decide when to act, and understand the risks that come with being an early adopter. He also shares some great perspective on failure, competition, and why making a bad business decision doesn't necessarily mean you've lost—the real loss comes when you stop competing altogether. Shawn also gives us a look at what else is happening at NOLA LabFest, including education on AI, social media marketing, employee culture, DSOs, and other topics affecting dental laboratories right now. And, of course, there's plenty of the NOLA LabFest fun mixed in, from the masquerade party and distillery tour to the return of Family Feud. It's a conversation about business, leadership, taking risks, and finding ways to keep dental laboratories moving forward—and it all starts with a karate instructor walking into a dental show.Special Guests: Jude Grayson and Shawn Nowak.

In this episode, Arial Bauman, Director of Physician Compensation at Piedmont, and Kate Taylor, Principal at ECG Management Consultants, discuss how physician compensation governance is evolving from a compliance-focused function into a strategic tool for recruitment, retention, financial sustainability, and organizational growth. 

Arsenal opened the 2026/27 season by lifting the Community Shield after a dominant 3–0 win over Manchester City in Cardiff.The lads break down a performance that felt far closer to Arsenal's best: quicker vertical passing, greater control through midfield and the return of the 4-3-3 shape that has suited this side so well. Martin Ødegaard is at the centre of it all after an outstanding display, while Christophe Solis impresses on his competitive debut and Noni Madueke's performance looks very different on a second viewing.There is also plenty on Riccardo Calafiori's influence, Cristian Mosquera's growing importance, Bukayo Saka's return and what Arsenal's depth could mean for the title defence.Finally, the discussion turns to the players who were missing from the squad, with Gabriel Martinelli's absence prompting questions about possible departures, incoming business and the pressure on Andrea Berta to improve Arsenal's record in the sales market.Continue the discussion with us.Follow The NN Pod for more Arsenal and football content.All our links: https://beacons.ai/thennpodChapters:(00:00) - Arteta's Non-Negotiables & Intro(01:35) - Arsenal's Starting XI & First Look at the New Boys(04:27) - Christos Tzolis: Intelligence, Timing & Decision-Making(09:12) - 1-0 | Calafiori Gives Arsenal the Perfect Start(11:44) - Arsenal's Vertical Passing Cuts City Open(16:39) - 2-0 | Havertz Finishes Another Slick Arsenal Move(18:11) - Rethinking Noni Madueke's First-Half Performance(23:20) - Half-Time: Arsenal Look Ready(24:35) - 3-0 | Ødegaard Sits Donnarumma Down(26:42) - Arsenal Manage the Game & Saka Returns(30:12) - Match Stats & Ødegaard Runs the Show(34:08) - What Does the Community Shield Win Actually Mean?(35:06) - The 4-3-3 Is Back(37:31) - Is Martin Ødegaard Back to His Best?(43:24) - Mosquera, Gabriel & Arsenal's Defensive Depth(47:39) - Why Was Martinelli Left Out?(51:41) - Andrea Berta, Player Sales & Arsenal's Transfer Business(54:09) - Arsenal Head Into the Title Defence With Momentum(56:28) - Outro

University of Washington assistant coach and longtime NBA coach Charles Klask joins Slappin' Glass for a detailed conversation on building structure underneath a free-flowing offense, defining offensive priorities, using analytics to shape behavior, and teaching switching defense.Klask breaks down how to identify your best decision-makers, build an offensive hierarchy around player strengths, and create what he calls “rich possessions” by involving your “rulers” while attacking the opponent's “rusty defenders.” He also discusses retriggering offense after the initial action, short-roll spacing and passing solutions, shot-selection priorities, offensive rebounding, tagging up, and balancing freedom with clearly defined rules.In Start, Sub, or Sit, Klask dives into coaching development and the importance of asking better questions, organizing and grading film, and taking effective notes. The conversation then shifts to switching defense, including physicality at the point of the screen, KYP decisions, defending slips, shrink responsibilities, and using switching as a disruptive weapon rather than simply an emergency solution.What You'll LearnHow to build structure underneath a random, conceptual offenseIdentifying “rulers,” attacking “rusty defenders,” and creating rich possessionsUsing player strengths to determine offensive roles and decision-making freedomOffensive analytics, shot hierarchy, offensive rebounding, and tagging-up principlesWhy asking better questions can improve both player learning and coaching developmentTeaching switching defense through physicality, KYP, screen navigation, and disruptionTo join coaches and championship winning staffs from the NBA to High School from over 70 different countries taking advantage of an SG Plus membership, visit HERE!

AI is changing hiring from both sides of the desk—companies are creating stronger job descriptions while candidates are creating stronger resumes, leaving recruiters with a growing blind spot between what looks good on paper and what actually predicts performance. In this FDE+ conversation, host Kortney Harmon is joined by Dr. Maya Huber, CEO and co-founder of Tatio, to explore why traditional, keyword-based hiring processes are becoming less reliable in an AI-driven market.Maya makes the case for shifting from promise to proof by measuring actual skills, competencies, and job-specific performance. She explores how staffing and recruiting teams can define what “good” looks like, standardize qualification across recruiters, and gather more meaningful evidence through structured questions, work samples, and virtual job simulations. The goal isn't simply greater speed or efficiency—it's greater certainty, transparency, and trust for clients and candidates alike.Explore how performance-based hiring can help recruiters make smarter talent decisions, strengthen client relationships, and become the performance authority their market trusts.________________Follow Maya Huber on LinkedIn: LinkedIn | MayaFollow Crelate on LinkedIn: CrelateWant to learn more about Crelate?

All Else Equal is taking a short break over the summer and will be revisiting some of our favorite conversations from last season. The show will be back with new episodes soon.  Whether it be in politics, public health, or corporate finance, why are people more likely to interpret facts or data in a way that fits their preconceived notions about the world as opposed to searching for the fundamental truth?   A new paper from the Harvard Business School called, Sharing Models to Interpret Data (by Joshua Schwartzstein and Adi Sunderam) studies the propensity for people to adopt interpretations to data based on their community's beliefs, and why this can lead to less accurate conclusions. Hosts and finance professors Jonathan Berk and Jules van Binsbergen are joined by the paper's co-author  Adi Sunderam, who is a professor of corporate finance at Harvard Business School, a research associate at the National Bureau of Economic Research, and a co-editor of the Journal of Finance.  The conversation covers the complexity of Bayesian updating and how the process is improperly deployed in today's thinking, not only in corporate decision-making but also on a sociological level. They also discuss Sunderam's model for explaining how people interpret data, why people are more likely to fall into group-belief dynamics, and if there are any interventions that would lead to better decision-making.   Read Adi Sunderam and Joshua Schwartzstein's paper:  Sharing Models to Interpret Data   Find All Else Equal on the web:   https://lauder.wharton.upenn.edu/allelse/   All Else Equal: Making Better Decisions Podcast is a production of the UPenn Wharton Lauder Institute through University FM.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

From a marriage she knew was ending long before she admitted it to a 48-hour move from Silicon Valley to New York, Amber Rae and I talk about why some of us stay too long while others leap too fast. If you've ever wondered whether you're honoring your instincts or just avoiding discomfort, this conversation is for you. You'll discover: The question that reveals whether you're staying from love, fear, growth, or guilt The surprising way a “safe” relationship can fuel creativity, risk-taking, and reinvention How voicing sexual fear, shame, and insecurity can become the beginning of real intimacy Amber also gets candid about control, body image, Adderall, eating disorders, and the shift from chasing outward approval to choosing what actually feels good. We unpack people pleasing, direct communication, friendship dynamics, and learning to tolerate the discomfort of disappointing others when you stop abandoning yourself. If you feel stuck between knowing and doing, keep outgrowing old patterns but hesitate to make the leap, or find yourself looking for help figuring out what you already know deep down, listen up. Amber left me with a simple but powerful challenge: face the hard truths you've been avoiding, and freedom is often on the other side.

Janatyn Sayeh analyzes the appointment of Mohsen Rezaei, an original IRGC veteran, to the Supreme National Security Council, signaling a return to hardline, ideologically driven decision-making in Tehran. Rezaei, linked to past international terrorism, reinforces the regime's aggressive stance against the U.S. and Israel. Iran currently refuses to engage in talks until the U.S. meets extreme demands, including unfreezing all assets and paying billions in reparations. The regime utilizes a "good cop, bad cop" strategy between factions to maximize leverage, but remains unified in its goals of expanding its nuclear program and securing regional dominance through its "resistance axis."

Ever find yourself saying yes to a new collaboration, tool, or project—then months later wondering how you got there? If you run a business (especially with an ADHD-ish™ brain), you're not alone.‍In this episode, I break down why our brains confuse options for opportunities, how dopamine clouds our judgment at the moment of the ask, and share a practical “screen door” filter to make better decisions going forward.‍Dopamine is a talent scout, not a bookkeeper: That rush of excitement we feel with something new? It's all about anticipation—not reality. The cost and maintenance of a new yes don't hit until much later. The trick is to slow the yes.‍Clever ways options pretend to be opportunities:‍The Flattering Ask: feeling chosen and visible can feel like opportunity, but might be just an option that doesn't fit your goals.‍The Closing Door: artificial urgency and manufactured scarcity prey on impulsive decision-making.‍The Adjacent Idea: our shiny new ideas often show up exactly when important work becomes tedious, tempting entrepreneurs to jump ship.‍Why is this so hard for ADHD brains?‍Because dopamine is LOUD and it fires at anticipation, not the actual result. That new offer or collab invitation? It's pure possibility—no fatigue, no disappointment, no downside at first. The evaluation part comes much later, usually after you're already committed.Story Time ‍Diann once bought a high ticket course to “launch a high-ticket course,” and not only never opened it, but kept paying a monthly subscription for three (!) years (ADHD dopamine at work, folks—don't feel bad, you're not alone!

Everyone wants a bigger Vision Story of Success, but very few people have a decision-making framework strong enough to protect it. Dr. Stephen and Dr. Pete unpack why core values are the invisible force behind sustainable growth, resilient leadership, healthy relationships, and thriving businesses. Through practical frameworks and deeply personal stories, they reveal how alignment between values, vision, and daily behavior becomes the difference between burnout and peace, between chasing success and actually living it.  If success has ever felt harder than it should, the answer may not be working harder, but getting clearer about what truly matters.  This episode will help you get there. In This Episode You Will Discover: Why some of the biggest business struggles are actually values problems in disguise.  The surprising reason highly successful leaders walk away from opportunities others would chase.  A simple framework that exposes whether daily decisions are building success or quietly working against it.  The hidden difference between having values and actually living by them.  How one deeply personal story reveals the real cost of making decisions that conflict with what matters most. Episode Highlights 01:15 - Core values can shape wealth far beyond finances, influencing business, health, marriage, family, and everyday life. 03:11 - Meaningful growth requires values strong enough to build resilience, character, and leadership capacity. 04:39 - A simple distinction reveals whether core values are guiding the business or merely decorating the wall. 08:04 - Sustainable success looks very different from a short burst of growth followed by exhaustion and burnout. 09:14 - The relationship between core values, vision, and behavior determines whether a leader is truly operating in alignment. 11:47 - Calendars, spending habits, attention, and energy often reveal personal values more clearly than words do. 13:55 - Misalignment between values and daily behavior creates stress, friction, and unnecessary difficulty. 16:49 - Burnout may be signaling something deeper than workload alone. 19:12 - Leaders can use core values as a practical standard for personal accountability, hiring, and team culture. 23:40 - One framework helps organize aligned values across life, marriage, parenting, finances, and business. 27:23 - A major personal dream becomes a real-world lesson in using values to make difficult decisions. 31:23 - Saying no to the wrong opportunity can protect freedom, peace of mind, and long-term success. 33:02 - The right technology should give chiropractors more time to care for people, not more work to manage. Dr. Pete speaks with Gabriel Doty from Success Partner ChiroHD about building smarter practice management software that streamlines workflows, improves efficiency, embraces meaningful AI innovation, and helps chiropractic practices scale with confidence while preparing for long-term success.   Resources Mentioned To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about ChiroHD visit: https://content.chirohd.com/remarkable-practice Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

Get ready to reflect on how your everyday choices influence your life and discover how to start fighting for your opportunities instead of your limits. Key Takeaways: Making a decision is setting the conclusion in motion; action follows clarity. Identify where your choices stem from limiting stories and consciously choose empowering beliefs instead.

Host Wayne Whitzell, Senior VP Strategic Accounts, SOLID Surface Care and First Vice Chair on IFMA's Global Executive Board welcomes Grant Sommerfeld, president of IFMA's FM Consultants Council and founder of Executive FM, for a conversation about the challenges facing facility managers today. Drawing on his experience leading FM transformations across healthcare, municipal government and higher education, Grant shares why many organizations remain trapped in reactive operating models and what leaders can do to break the cycle. The discussion explores the importance of data driven decision making, the communication gap between FM teams and executive leadership, and why facility managers need a stronger voice before major organizational decisions are made. Grant also explains how consultants can help organizations build internal capabilities, improve stakeholder communication and create more sustainable operating models that don't rely on individual heroics to succeed.

If you've expanded your options, checked your mindset, and reality tested your assumptions — but you're still not sure — it might be a timing problem.In this episode, I dig into when to go fast and when to go slow. There's a concept I picked up called "thinking gray" (deliberately refusing to form an opinion until you have to) that plays a big role in this process. Also, I'll talk about a simple question that has shaped some of the biggest moments of my life: "How will I feel about this in 10 minutes, 10 months, and 10 years?" That question literally changed everything from family life to business for me, and I think it will for you, too.--- P.S.: If you like this podcast, you'll probably enjoy seeing Scott present live. If you are interested in having him speak to your organization, you can see the options and schedule time to talk with Scott about your event here: https://scottwozniak.com/speaking/---Sign up to have Scott email you a weekly idea, story or cool tool.

In this episode, Barry Schwartz explores why making a good decision isn't always as simple as weighing the pros and cons. We discuss why trying to find the "best" option can sometimes leave us worse off, when we should trust our judgment instead of the numbers, and why having so many choices today can make even simple decisions feel overwhelming. Along the way, Barry offers a different way to think about making choices—and what it really means to choose wisely.Keywordsdecision making, rational choice theory, judgment, behavioral economics, trade-offs, regret, modern decision challengesIn this episode, you'll learn:Why rational choice theory doesn't capture how many real-world decisions should be madeWhy some choices simply can't be reduced to numbersHow quantification can create a false sense of confidenceWhy we sometimes prioritize what's measurable instead of what actually mattersThe difference between maximizing and choosing something that's "good enough"Why having more choices can make decision-making harderHow judgment differs from simply following your intuitionWhy values and flexibility both matter when making difficult choicesHow regret can improve future decisionsWhy the modern world may be making thoughtful decision-making more difficultChapters00:00 Introduction to Barry Schwartz and his new book09:30 The limitations of quantifying decisions and outcomes11:00 The importance of context, framing, and norms in decision making13:24 The seductive nature of quantification and its pitfalls14:56 The futility of searching for the 'best' in decisions16:54 Mechanical errors in probabilistic thinking and uncertainty18:09 Challenges of quantifying complex decisions like college choices19:44 The risks of over-reliance on quantification and metrics22:09 The influence of quantifiable metrics on decision priorities23:36 The problem with maximizing and searching for the 'best'25:21 The paradox of choice and satisfaction27:12 The limits of rational search in life decisions28:46 When to apply rational choice theory and when to rely on judgment30:12 The role of reflection and goals in decision making31:58 Balancing logic, intuition, and emotion in decisions40:36 The importance of values, principles, and flexibility41:30 Life as a series of judgment calls, not formulas42:29 The role of regret in learning and decision improvement44:29 The right amount of regret and its importance45:54 Final thoughts on decision making in a complex worldGuest LinksWebsite - https://www.swarthmore.edu/profile/barry-schwartz

Guilt heavily influences women physicians' decision-making. I see it day in and day out as a physician coach. Dr. Jessie Mahoney talks with psychiatrist and author Dr. Jennifer Reid about her book Guilt Free and the guilt equation she uses with patients: guilt as our expectations minus our perceived reality. They walk through the four expectations Jennifer calls "the four furies"—constant caretaking, hyper-accountability, seeking perfection, and the myth of having it all—and why these are especially expensive for women physicians. Jessie and Jennifer talk through the difference between adaptive guilt, which prompts real repair, and maladaptive guilt, which keeps us doing more. They cover disappointment as one of the most stressful things for physicians to navigate, why boundaries and delegating feel unsafe, and Jennifer's SPEAK framework for moving toward guilt-free decisions: showing up, paying attention, examining the evidence, taking action, and "keeping going," which = continuing the practice. Guilt also functions as a form of social control in medicine—training that keeps physicians giving more instead of questioning the system asking it of them. Awareness is the most important shift. In this episode:  The guilt equation: expectations minus perceived reality The four expectations that keep women physicians trapped in guilt Adaptive guilt versus maladaptive guilt Why disappointment feels so dangerous in medicine The SPEAK framework for moving toward guilt-free decisions How guilt functions as social control in medical training Pearls of Wisdom: Guilt equals our expectations minus our perceived reality—and perceived reality is rarely accurate. Guilt motivates the way junk food does: briefly, at a high cost. Adaptive guilt prompts repair; maladaptive guilt just prompts more and more. Disappointing others is often unavoidable—the litmus test that matters more is not disappointing yourself. Guilt functions as social control in medicine, keeping physicians giving more instead of questioning the system. Awareness is most of the shift. Reflection Questions Where do you notice yourself making decisions from guilt rather than desire or alignment? Which of the four expectations—caretaking, hyper-accountability, perfection, or having it all—shows up most for you? Where does disappointing someone else actually mean not disappointing yourself?

Let's talk about how to trust God with hard decisions.How do you move forward when you're afraid of making the wrong choice?What do you do when fear is loud, the answers are unclear, and the situation in front of you feels impossible?In this episode, we're digging into the quiet beliefs we hold about God and how those beliefs shape the way we make decisions.It is one thing to say that God is good, faithful, and in control.It is another thing to live like we truly believe it when the outcome matters deeply to us.I share a personal story about fear, faith, and an opportunity I almost allowed uncertainty to take away from me.We'll talk about how fear can lead us to overthink, delay, or avoid the very steps God may be asking us to take.Because learning how to trust God is not about having every answer before you move.Sometimes it looks like praying, examining what you believe about God, and taking the next right step even while you are still afraid.This is about how to trust God with difficult decisions, uncertain outcomes, unanswered questions, and the things you cannot control.Plus, we'll explore a simple but powerful practice inspired by The Next Right Thing by Emily P. Freeman.This practice will help you pay attention to the way you see God, release the pressure to get everything right, and move forward with greater peace.You may not know how everything will work out.But you can learn how to trust God every day, do your best with what is in your hands, and leave the outcome with him.Support the showContact UsAsk a question or leave a comment, visit shepact.com/voicemailFollow me on Instagram at instagram.com/remiroyEmail us: thedrivenintrovert@shepact.comEnjoying the podcast?Share the podcast with a friend: shepact.com/TDIPodcastLeave a review: We'd appreciate it if you could WRITE a review for us.
