The female cochineal beetle may not be aware of it, but it owes a debt of gratitude to Joshua Britton. In February, Britton's Debut Biotech unveiled a breakthrough set to disrupt how beauty products are formulated. Using biotechnology, the San Diego-based company created a vegan, bio-identical alternative to a common red cosmetics colorant traditionally harvested from the cochineal beetle. This beetle pigment can be found on ingredient labels as “carmine,” “cochineal extract,” “crimson lake,” “natural red 4” or “C.I. 75470.” A quick online search reveals carmine in products from Stila, Fenty Beauty, Maybelline, M.A.C., Chanel and dozens more brands. Britton has had a team of 10 researchers working on this for around four years. Debut has invested around $10 million in the project thus far, and the new, vegan pigment will soon be available for the industry at scale. Britton has a PHD in biochemistry and organic chemistry and launched Debut six years ago. Debut is backed by L'Oréal's science-focused incubator arm Bold and was named a Time 100 2025 Most Influential Companies of the Year. The company also launched its first in-house skin-care brand, called Deinde, in 2024. Glossy awarded Britton a Glossy 50 award last year. Britton joins the Glossy Beauty Podcast to discuss the breakthrough and its impact, and provides a primer on the power of biotechnology in beauty today. But first, Lexy Lebsack is joined by senior reporter Emily Jensen to discuss the news of the week. This includes early results from Amazon Prime Days, which is on track to be the retailer's largest annual sale yet. Jensen and Lebsack also discuss Sephora's newest brand, Beauty of Joseon, which is known for its viral and hard-to-get sunscreens. Founder Sumin Lee joined the Glossy Beauty Podcast late last year to discuss its stunning growth in the U.S. market. The company hopes to sell $120 million in the U.S. market this year.
Welcome back to The SaaS CFO Podcast! In today's episode, we're diving deep into the next generation of accounting software with Nicolas Kopp, CEO and founder of Rillet. Nicolas shares his journey from building a fully regulated bank to launching Rillet—an AI-first ERP platform designed to take on industry staples like QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, and Sage Intacct. With a background grounded in finance and accounting, Nicolas brings a fresh perspective to a market that's long been dominated by legacy solutions. We'll discuss how Rillet is shaking things up for asset-light businesses in SaaS, AI, professional services, and fintech, and why the platform's robust multi-entity, multi-currency capabilities have attracted mid-market companies ready to graduate from more traditional tools. Nicolas also sheds light on the challenges of building highly regulated, mission-critical systems from scratch, what's behind their rapid customer adoption, and how an AI-native approach is changing expectations for accounting software. From funding milestones and his recent $25 million Series A, to lessons learned about product-market fit and the nuances of scaling go-to-market through channels and inbound demand, Nicolas gives us the behind-the-scenes look at Rillet's rise. If you're curious about the future of financial software—or when it's really time to make the leap from QuickBooks to a next-gen ERP—this conversation is for you. Let's get started!

A Q3 Reset for Founders, Leaders, and High-Capacity Professionals There are moments when your rhythm gets interrupted—not by burnout, not by chaos, but by something deeper. A dissonance. A disruption. And no one teaches you what to do when the pace you've mastered suddenly doesn't fit the version of you that's emerging. You've always known how to lead through change. But this moment is about more than change. It's about choosing a new identity. In this episode, you'll get access to a layered reflection on what it means to pull back, disrupt your own loop, and lead from a deeper center. If you've been anchoring others while quietly unanchored yourself, this is for you. You'll walk away with: A grounded lens on how to respond when your nervous system signals that your pace is no longer sustainable Why evolving requires identity reconstruction—not just rest or delegation A new framework to name and move through the phases of realignment Q3 is here but it's requiring more than a pep talk. It's a shift. And if you're feeling it, there's a private Power Page™ waiting to take you deeper.

STRATEGIC PROGRESS VALIDATED BY INDUSTRY LEADERHPQ Silicon $HPQ / $HPQFF has taken a major step toward commercializing its breakthrough fumed silica technology. Under a previously announced Letter of Intent (LOI), the leading global manufacturer of fumed silica has now confirmed the quality and performance of HPQ's pilot-scale material—offering rare third-party validation at this stage.This milestone follows the successful completion of Phase One testing, which demonstrated high-purity output, significant impurity reduction, and semi-continuous reactor operation—all critical for industrial production.“Taken together, the results from Phase 1 tests 4 and 5, along with operational data from the three earlier tests, validate the successful 20-fold scale-up of the Fumed Silica Reactor—from lab to pilot scale, and from batch to semi-continuous production.” — Bernard Tourillon, President and CEO of HPQ Silicon and HPQ Silica Polvere Inc.WHY THIS MATTERSHPQ's patented one-step process converts quartz into fumed silica without toxic byproducts or the need for costly legacy infrastructure. This modular, low-footprint approach positions HPQ to challenge traditional producers in a $2B+ global market.NEXT: FINAL TECHNICAL OPTIMIZATION AND MARKET ENTRYPhase Two testing is set to begin mid-July, with a focus on achieving surface area targets suitable for multiple commercial applications. Success would mark a major step toward offtake discussions—particularly with the global manufacturer evaluating HPQ's material under LOI.THE BOTTOM LINEWith third-party validation secured, pilot operations successfully scaled, and technical risks reduced, HPQ Silicon is approaching a commercial inflection point. Investors looking for exposure to high-impact industrial innovation should be paying close attention.

Career growth starts with stepping outside your comfort zone.Building a successful career isn't about following a set path—it's about knowing when to evolve and embracing change. Whitney Johnson believes that success comes from disrupting yourself—challenging routines, stepping into discomfort, and continuously evolving. “People think staying in their comfort zone is the safe choice,” she explains, “but real growth happens when we take intentional risks.”As a bestselling author and leadership expert, Johnson has spent years helping individuals and organizations navigate change. She breaks down the S-curve of learning, a framework that helps professionals recognize when it's time to move on, pivot, or double down on their current path. From identifying signs of stagnation to developing strategies for career reinvention, she shares practical tools for making bold moves with confidence.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Johnson joins host Matt Abrahams to explore why mastery can be a sign that it's time for a change, how to manage the discomfort that comes with growth, and why personal disruption isn't just a challenge—it's the key to long-term success.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premiumEpisode Reference Links:Whitney JohnsonWhitney's Books: Disrupt Yourself / Smart GrowthEp.147 Disrupt Yourself: How to Innovate Who You Are and Become Who You Can Be Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (01:36) - What Is Personal Disruption?

You can't talk about the future without talking about change. But change can trick you, as guest Roger Spitz says on this latest episode, filmed live at the Rulebreaker Future Congress in Germany. Roger is the founding Chair of the Disruptive Futures Institute and, there, instructs global leaders in operating with agility in uncertain environments. The thing about change, Roger explains, is that it feels equally incredibly slow and exponentially fast – and both perceptual models can distract us from focusing on the present moment and what needs to be solved for today. On the show, Roger stresses why cognitive agility and informed optimism are critical mindsets in a future that feels uncontrollably volatile. ----------More:Looking Outside podcast www.looking-outside.comConnect with host, Jo Lepore on LinkedIn & X & jolepore.comLearn more about Roger SpitzFollow Roger on LinkedIn & X & MediumGrab a copy of Roger's book Disrupt with ImpactFollow Techistential on LinkedIn & XFollow the Disruptive Futures Institute on LinkedIn & XLearn more on the Rulebreaker Future Congress & the Rulebreaker Society----------⭐ Follow & rate the show - it makes a difference!----------Looking Outside is a podcast exploring fresh perspectives of familiar topics.

What happens when a leader says they're aligned with the team—but their behavior tells a different story behind closed doors? In this solo episode of Challenge to Lead, Beka Shea explores the concept of a “shadow tone”—the subtle, often unspoken emotional undercurrent that quietly shapes your culture and erodes team alignment.Using real-life examples and behavioral analytics insights, Beka unpacks how highly social, well-intentioned people can unknowingly create confusion or dissent by verbally processing their doubts in the wrong settings. You'll learn how to recognize this hidden influence, how to redirect it for good, and when it's time to have the courageous conversation that every CEO dreads—but every great leader must face.This episode is a must-listen for growth-minded executives, team leaders, and anyone serious about protecting the energy and integrity of their workplace culture.

Happy Emmajority Report Thursday to all who celebrate! As if that wasn't enough, it's also AOC endorses Zohran Day, which comes the day after Zohran wipes the floor with Andrew Cuomo Day. We needed to bask in the glory at the top of the show and damn it felt good. After that, Emma talks to Trita Parsi, the executive vice president of the Quincy Institute. He's also the author of four books on US foreign policy in the Middle East, with a particular focus on Iran and Israel and him and Emma go over the latest on the Gaza and U.S. - Iran negotiations. We're joined as always by Matt Binder and Brandon Sutton in the Fun Half, where we check in on the relationship between Elon Musk and Donald Trump. Looks like it's on the rocks at the moment. Ro Khanna says it's an opportunity to ally with Musk (but he's wrong). The centrists have gathered for their answer to burning man, WelcomeFest, which featured a lot of discussion about the Abundance Agenda™ and wouldn't you know it, Josh Barro tells Richie Torres that when you look at the impediments to progress you usually find a labor union. Kind of illuminating for once to hear an Abundance Bro admit they are on the side of capital. We also take some calls. Tune in!
