Dr. Alex Marson, MD, PhD, is a professor of medicine at the University of California, San Francisco. We discuss the biology of the immune system and cancer, and everyday choices that can increase or decrease your cancer risk, several of which are surprising but all of which are actionable. We also discuss immunotherapy, including how engineered T-cells can be used to defeat childhood and adult cancers. Dr. Marson explains CRISPR and gene editing to cure diseases, and we address the ethical questions surrounding gene editing in embryos, children and adults. This discussion is for anyone interested in avoiding cancer and/or seeking to understand the science and practical applications of immune- or gene-therapy. Read the show notes at hubermanlab.com.

In this episode of Crossing Faiths, John speaks with Eitan Diamond, a legal expert at the Humanitarian Law Center in Israel, about his journey and professional focus on human rights and international law. Their conversation spans Diamond's personal background as a South African Jew who moved to Israel during the apartheid era, reflecting on the complexity of that transition and his later career. They explore the critical intersection of human dignity, equality, and international humanitarian law, particularly in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the impact of settlements. Throughout the discussion, they critically examine the use of political and legal terminology, such as "apartheid" and "genocide," assessing their relevance and limitations in describing the realities on the ground, while emphasizing the importance of securing rights for vulnerable populations and the ongoing challenge of achieving a just, two-state political framework. https://en-law.tau.ac.il/profile/eitandiamond_65

Assessing Academic Library Collections for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (Bloomsbury, 2025) provides a practical, step-by-step approach to designing and implementing evaluation projects targeting a variety of DEI goals in academic library collections. Offering both flexibility and detailed guidance, this book begins with a discussion of aspects of diversity that librarians could target in their assessment projects and notes project planning considerations such as defining a scope and timeline. It particularly notes how larger academic libraries can narrow the scope of a project to make it feasible. Subsequent chapters explain different methods for assessing a collection, with many examples throughout. Methods include: - List-checking involves comparing the collection to a list of recommended books. - Metadata searching produces a count of library holdings that contain certain subject headings or use specific call numbers. - Diversity coding allows staff to create their own categories and assign them to books in a sample. All three of these methods can be used to analyze the collection by subject matter. It is possible to use diversity coding to examine author identities as well, a sensitive endeavor for which this book provides both cautions and guidance. A fourth approach focuses on organizational efforts or inputs. This method involves tracking and reflecting on the library's progress towards goals the staff have set, which could involve a variety of collections-related activities, including staff development, changes to workflows, revising policies, or increasing outreach. The book describes advantages and limitations of the four methods, allowing librarians to make an informed choice of which to use. It also offers resources for implementing each of these strategies as well as guidance on creating one's own evaluation tools. Three chapters by guest authors provide examples of DEI assessment projects from academic libraries. A concluding chapter discusses sharing findings and suggests a range of changes libraries can make to their collecting practices. Guest: Karen Kohn is the Collections Analysis Librarian at Temple University in Philadelphia, where she serves on the DEI in Collections Committee and the Open Education Group. Host: Dr. Michael LaMagna is the Information Literacy Program & Library Services Coordinator and Professor of Library Services at Delaware County Community College. Learn more about your ad choices.

This week on Tapod we catch up with the amazing Natalie Flynn, Founder of Equidi, to discuss the latest WGEA gender pay gap and all things International Women's Day. We are making baby steps into our pay gap, but it's not enough and we're not sure we're even measuring the right data… What we can be sure of is that in many industries, there are still more opportunities at the ‘top end' of businesses for males, from management to the ‘C-suite'. We touch on AI and its impact on the gender labour market and much more. It's not about cupcakes; it's about action, and it's time we all took action… real action. PS. Who's up for a road trip to Canberra?Thanks to Taly for partnering with us this month.

Jennifer Townsend—adjunct instructor, death-and-dying scholar, and Heterodox Academy campus co-chair at Western Michigan University—challenges the ideological monoculture dominating higher education. Awarded for promoting open inquiry and viewpoint diversity, she shares how she openly defends free speech on a left-leaning campus without hiding her views. The conversation dives into Jonathan Haidt's moral foundations theory, the limits of identity-based diversity, the value of listening to understand (not just to win), and why free inquiry remains essential—even when bad ideas persist. Townsend also critiques credential inflation, encourages trades over debt-laden degrees, and describes classroom strategies that shift students toward nuanced, less knee-jerk thinking.Books and resources mentioned:Heterodox Academy website: heterodoxacademy.orgJennifer's Substack on death and dying: The EndJennifer's Instagram accounts (death education, death book club)The Righteous Mind: Why Good People Are Divided by Politics and Religion by Jonathan HaidtMan's Search for Meaning by Viktor FranklDon't Label Me: How to Do Diversity, Inclusion, and Social Justice Without Sacrificing the Truth or Your Own Soul by Irshad ManjiHow to Have Impossible Conversations: A Very Practical Guide by Peter Boghossian and James LindsayThe Three Languages of Politics: Talking Across the Political Divides by Arnold KlingOn Liberty by John Stuart Mill Audio Production by Podsworth Media - https://podsworth.com ★ Support this podcast ★

Laura Weinberg believes that the best way to improve a community is to bring everyone to the table — not just government, but private industry, neighboring cities, and the people who live and work there every day. For Laura, real progress on complex challenges like housing doesn't come from a single solution, but from collaboration across borders and sectors.Laura is the Mayor of Golden, Colorado, a city of roughly equal parts residents and daily commuters, home to Colorado School of Mines, Coors Brewery, and a thriving outdoor recreation economy. Before running for office, Laura built a career in IT and business strategy, working across financial services and software companies, ultimately running her own consulting practice. When she decided to run for city council — and later for mayor — she did it her way. She also works as a fitness instructor, a role she says provides crucial balance to the policy-heavy demands of public service.Laura joined the podcast to discuss what it's really like to be a part-time mayor with a full-time workload, her through line of improving systems across every chapter of her career, and why staying curious and true to yourself matters more than having a plan.

Northeast Mississippi Community College President Dr. Ricky G. Ford and Marketing and Public Relations Specialist Liz Calvery look at what people often assume about community colleges and what President Ford wishes more people understood — that the quality of education at Northeast rivals, and often exceeds, that of a four-year university. Ford breaks down the rigorous standards required of Northeast instructors, noting that every faculty member holds at least a master's degree or higher in their field. The veteran educator shares how Northeast isn't simply a stepping stone, but a launching pad — whether students are preparing to transfer to a four-year university, land their dream job, or sharpen their workforce skills. Ford also highlights the value and affordability of a community college education, emphasizing that Northeast students receive strong academic support, graduate with less debt, and leave with the confidence to succeed. Listeners will hear how Northeast's smaller class sizes — often a 1-to-20 or 1-to-25 ratio — foster personalized instruction and how instructors take a genuine interest in helping students thrive both academically and personally. Ford discusses the extensive support system available to students and employees alike, noting that Northeast is the only community college in Mississippi with a Director of Employee Development. Beyond academics, Ford explains how students can take advantage of numerous extracurricular opportunities designed to build leadership and community engagement. He also touches on Northeast's statewide articulation agreements that simplify the transfer process to four-year colleges and universities. Plus, get the latest updates on athletics, academics, workforce development, and all the incredible things happening at one of the nation's premier community colleges.

Hola New Paradigmers!I can make a new beginning,Or repeat the mistakes from the past.Silence and suppress some voices within,Or integrate them all at last.☉What can I say, I've tried to not get too political with the Pele Report but kinda lost it with this last eclipse.  The thing is, however, that the message of the stars is the same!  As without, so within!  It's as clear as mud on your face, the Age of Aquarius is about "Unity in Diversity."  We're just now entering the Age of Aquarius and it will take another 50 - 100 years before we're fully "in it."  With Pluto (the force of evolution) having just entered Aquarius with the north node of the Moon also entering Aquarius July 26th, the world order (and our inner order) is getting shaken up.As I mentioned in the report, there are three responses to the evolutionary necessity presented to us in Aquarius which rebels from the existing societal norms to find new, more evolved, means of order and expression.  One is to rebel and go back, a second is to join subgroups, and a third is to go your own unique way into the unknown.  The old way is patriarchy, top down, male dominated, hierarchical, aggressiveness.  The new way is unity in diversity, expanding the container so it can include all points of view, beliefs, needs, and desires.So you see, whether it is planet earth or our own inner world, the project is the same - expand and integrate or keep doing the same.  Right now, the world order (dominated by Trump) is doing the same old same old, divide and conquer.  It is doomed to failure as it is not the path of evolution.  Likewise, we can continue to suppress some of our desires, those shadowy, "dark," really personal needs that have gone unmet cuz we're ashamed of them or they're not popular and might disturb the waters of our lives.We can use what's going on as a metaphor, we all have an Iran in us, we all have a United States, we all have a China and a Ukraine, and a Russia and on and on and on.  Our Super Ego (symbolized by the US) can try to dominate and subjugate (violently) these different "states" of ourselves and we can continue to be at war with ourselves with different "subegos" vying for control.  Or, we can invite all our demons to the table, have a council, work with our shadows, and expand our consciousness so as to not only include, but foster, love, and expand our awareness to the point of creative genius!  Let's go for the latter!For What It's Worth! https://youtu.be/TXVe2XH5rpk?si=hQgSI-8Qrhnlh4Ka Where Have All the Flowers Gone? https://youtu.be/1y2SIIeqy34?si=IActfuEUnhewfFJI So Much Love,Kaypacha

What if the culture your organisation is trying to build isn't hiding in a values poster or a strategy deck—but in the smallest things you do every single day?  In this warm, deeply practical episode of Legendary Leaders, host Cathleen O'Sullivan is joined by Augusta Vivian, CEO of Higson, a people development consultancy helping senior teams lead through change, build inclusive workplaces, and embed culture that actually lasts. Their conversation spans parenting and leadership, kindness as a performance tool, the hard work of real inclusion, and why stubborn values might be the most underrated leadership quality of all.  Augusta opens with something personal—how raising her 17-month-old daughter has sharpened her understanding of presence, trust, and the power of micro moments. From there, the conversation moves into the heart of her work: how the tiny, consistent behaviours we model become the architecture of how we treat each other at scale. She shares how Higson builds change-ready cultures, why clarity is an act of kindness, and how vulnerability from a leader doesn't weaken authority—it creates the conditions for real trust.  They also tackle inclusion head-on—unpacking the critical difference between diversity and inclusion, the unconscious bias we all carry, and how even the language we use with toddlers is quietly shaping future leaders. And Augusta makes a compelling case that fun, charity, and giving back aren't soft add-ons—they're non-negotiables, built into processes and calendars precisely because life is busy and good intentions alone don't get it done.  This is a conversation that will nudge you to look differently at how habits, tone, and attention shape the people around you—at home, in your community, and at work.   Episode Timeline: 00:04:18  Parenting as a leadership practice  00:06:41  Why micro moments are the real culture builders  00:09:31  Building a change culture, not just surviving change  00:12:59  The importance of kindness and vulnerability 00:18:02  Financial transparency, strategy days 00:21:24  Culture add, not culture fit 00:23:56  Core values of of Higson 00:29:06  Making the values a non-negotiable 00:34:38  The people behind the passion and authenticity 00:36:35  Stubbornness as a values-led superpower  00:41:14  The impact of her Oxford days 00:43:10  Diversity vs inclusion – what leaders get wrong  00:52:26  Why culture change stalls at the poster  00:58:44  Intelligent failure and the Rose, Thorn, Bud tool  01:04:57  What a parenting book teaches us about leadership  01:08:16  Boundaries over balance   Key Takeaway: Culture Lives in Behaviour, Not Slogans: Values on a wall mean nothing without the layer below them. Define what your values look like in practice, build them into how you hire, appraise and recognise people—then they become culture. Most organisations skip that step.  Kindness is a Performance Tool, Not a Nice-to-Have: Honest communication, genuine recognition and psychological safety aren't soft—they're the foundation of high performance. Teams that trust their leader navigate change faster, stay longer and go further above and beyond.  Diversity Gets People in the Room. Inclusion Keeps Them There: A diverse team without an inclusive culture doesn't outperform—it underperforms. Around 70% of how included someone feels comes directly from their leader. Check your language, challenge your biases, and make sure people feel heard—not just present.  If It Matters, Build It In—Don't Just Intend It: Charity work, fun, wellbeing check-ins, strategy days—none of it happens on good intentions alone. If something is a value, make it a non-negotiable: schedule it, process it, protect it. Otherwise, busy wins.   About Augusta Vivian: Augusta Vivian is a people development and organisational culture expert who works with leaders and teams to build inclusive, high-performing workplaces and lead through change. As Founder and CEO of the people consultancy Higson, she specialises in designing leadership frameworks, behavioural change programmes, and talent practices rooted in psychological insight that help organisations communicate better, innovate, and thrive. With a degree in Psychology from the University of Oxford, Augusta combines deep expertise in human behaviour with a mission to create positive social and environmental impact — including donating a significant portion of Higson's profits to charity and achieving B Corp certification. Today, she partners with professionals who want to transform culture, strengthen leadership, and drive lasting results in their organisations.   Resources Mentioned: The Right Kind of Wrong: https://a.co/054z87s9  The Whole-Brain Child: https://drdansiegel.com/book/the-whole-brain-child/    Connect with Augusta Vivian: Website: https://consulthigson.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/augustavivian/    Connect with Cathleen O'Sullivan:  Business: https://cathleenosullivan.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cathleen-osullivan/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/legendary_leaders_cathleenos/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@LegendaryLeaderswithCathleenOS   FOLLOW LEGENDARY LEADERS ON APPLE, SPOTIFY OR WHEREVER YOU LISTEN TO YOUR PODCASTS.

How can ADHDers thrive at work? Navigating the workplace with ADHD presents unique challenges, but it also offers a distinct set of strengths and perspectives. Unlocking our best work can require a tailored approach: “gamifying” mundane tasks, offloading cognitive weight to digital tools, and finding unconventional ways to manage energy, focus, and time. When combined with foundational self-care, these strategies can transform perceived limitations into powerful creative assets. The strategies themselves often become valuable contributions to the wider team. For instance, visual storytelling can help an ADHD mind retain complex information and, at an organizational scale, that same approach becomes a pillar of an inclusive, high-impact communication strategy. On this episode of Just One Q, Dominique chats with guest Scott Mooney, an award-winning educational illustrator with over 30 years of experience. Scott shares candidly about his late diagnosis of ADHD, his specific strategies for self-management and productivity, and how visual storytelling can bridge communication gaps in the workplace.

Honestly, I don't know why it took me this long to get Chloe Daniels — aka Clo Bare Money Coach — on the show, because she is a whole badass and we have been living parallel lives for years. She went from a torrential relationship with money (including being financially trapped in a dangerous situation abroad) to becoming one of the most refreshing voices in personal finance.Her approach is called lazy investing — and before you scroll past that, hear her out. Because when BlackRock ran 100 years of market data, the results backed it up. We're getting into all of it: the mindset blocks keeping women out of the market, why Wall Street jargon is gatekeeping on purpose, the truth about financial advisors, and the simple strategy that actually builds wealth long term.WE GET INTO:00:00 - Intro: Why It Took Us This Long to Do This Episode00:46 - Meet Chloe Daniels: From Side Hustle to Full-Time Finance Coach04:05 - The Childhood Money Belief That Held Her Back05:03 - Financially Trapped in an Abusive Relationship Abroad07:31 - Rebuilding Self-Trust and Becoming Your Own Hero09:05 - Wall Street Gatekeeping and the Paralysis of Conflicting Info11:47 - The Real Stats on Diversity in Financial Advising14:35 - What "Lazy Investing" Actually Is (and Why It Works)18:42 - ETFs vs. Index Funds vs. Mutual Funds: What You Need to Know20:45 - How to Figure Out Your Investor Type and Build Your Portfolio24:21 - The Common Mistake: Money Sitting Uninvested in a Brokerage27:11 - How to Calculate Your Retirement Number Using the 4% Rule36:16 - The One Thing to Do If You're Not Investing Yet38:46 - Lightning Round: Roth vs. 401k, DIY vs. Advisor, and MoreKEY TAKEAWAYS:Why investing feels hard on purpose — and how to cut through itThe difference between investing and trading (and why most people confuse them)How to determine your investor type before picking a single fundWhy your 401k money might be sitting uninvested without you knowingHow to use the 4% rule to calculate your actual retirement numberWhy the compound interest calculator is the mindset shift you didn't know you neededWhy the answer isn't cutting back — it's making more moneyCONNECT WITH CHLOE:Instagram: @clobaremoneycoachWebsite: https://www.thelazyinvestorscourse.com/ TAKE THE NEXT STEP:Yo Quiero Dinero Private MembershipRead my book: Financially LitLeave me a voicemailThis episode of Yo Quiero Dinero was produced by Heart Centered Podcasting.

In this episode of Crossing Faiths, John speaks with Ambassador Robert Rehak, the Czech Republic's Special Envoy for the Holocaust, Interfaith Dialogue, and Freedom of Religion and Belief, about his extensive global efforts to protect marginalized communities and promote tolerance. The conversation creatively opens by comparing his human rights work to the Czech legend of Houska Castle—a fortress built to seal the gates of hell—before delving into his real-world responsibilities as the Chair of the International Religious Freedom or Belief Alliance. Ambassador Rehak shares compelling examples of his advocacy, including his efforts to free a Nigerian prisoner of conscience, unique social experiments dressing as different religious figures at soccer matches to combat Islamophobia, and organizing interfaith sports tournaments for Jewish and Muslim youth. They also discuss urgent global crises, such as the destruction of religious sites and oppression of minorities in Russian-occupied Ukraine, the systemic persecution of Uyghur Muslims in China, and the ongoing struggles in Syria. Drawing on his own poignant experiences growing up behind the Iron Curtain in communist Czechoslovakia and participating in the Velvet Revolution, Ambassador Rehak underscores his deep personal dedication to democracy and concludes with a hopeful call to action for everyday people to champion religious freedom and global unity. Robert Řehák, Ph.D. is Special Envoy for Holocaust, Interfaith Dialogue and Freedom of Religion, Czech career diplomat, Head of the Czech Delegation to the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA), Chair of the International Religious Freedom or Belief Alliance (IRFBA) or the Article 18 Alliance, published scholar of biblical proper names and the Dead Sea Scrolls, and official Hebrew interpreter. He studied at Charles University in Prague, Ruprecht-Karls-Universität in Heidelberg and Hebrew University in Jerusalem. As a researcher, he participates in several international research projects in the field of interfaith dialogue and sociology of religion. He is the initiator of the new Czech National Strategy of Combating anti-Semitism and co-ordinated the recent conference on the Terezín Declaration and the 2023 FoRB Ministerial in Prague. He is proficient in Czech, English, Hebrew, German and Russian, and reads classical Latin, Greek and Arabic. He lives in Prague with his wife and four children.

New global data reveals strong employee support for diversity, equity & inclusion (DEI)—but also a widening gap between how leaders view progress and how workers experience it.    Allan Schweyer, principal researcher in the Human Capital Center, speaks with Marion Devine, principal researcher, Human Capital Europe, and Matthew Maloof, researcher, Human Capital Center, about findings from a survey of more than 1,300 employees across the US, Europe, and Asia.    They explore why managers are the make-or-break factor in DEI success, how regional attitudes differ, and what senior leaders can do to strengthen credibility in a climate of political and cultural pushback.    For more from The Conference Board:   Bridging International Perspectives: Exploring DEI  Evidence Over Optics: Proving the Impact of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion  Advancing Opportunity and Access: Linking DEI to Business Outcomes  A Tale of Two Continents: The Impact of US DEI Policy on European Businesses

A brilliant pre-med student. 521 MCAT — 98th percentile. 4.0 GPA. Published research. Primary author. Rejected by ten medical schools. If that résumé isn't good enough, what is?On The Real Story, I examine how Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion policies are reshaping medical school admissions. Across the country, schools describe “holistic review,” equity mandates, and diversity goals as central to their mission. Academic metrics are no longer the primary standard and that merit is being subordinated to ideology.We break down AAMC data, LCME accreditation shifts, pass/fail grading trends, and looming physician shortages. Medicine is not a sociology lab. When you're on an operating table, credentials matter. Excellence is not negotiable.

If you love your partner but your sexual intimacy is gone… you're not hopeless. You're normal. Let's talk about sex, intimacy, and the real skills that rebuild sexual connection in long-term love. Because emotional intimacy doesn't automatically create desire,  and you can deepen intimacy on purpose. If you've ever wondered, “Why don't I want sex anymore?” or felt the quiet ache of a lack of intimacy in marriage, you're not alone. Many couples care deeply about each other. They function well as teammates. And yet when it comes to intimacy in marriage, something feels distant or flat. Maybe you're in a marriage without intimacy and wondering how to improve sex life without forcing it. Maybe you're trying to figure out how to increase sexual desire, especially if your drive has faded. Or maybe you're the partner feeling rejected and unsure how to reconnect. The truth is that improving intimacy in marriage isn't about waiting for spontaneous chemistry to return. Sexual desire shifts in long-term relationships. Stress, exhaustion, resentment, hormonal changes, and the mental load of adult life all impact connection. When there is no intimacy in marriage, it often reflects burnout and disconnection,  not incompatibility. In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Nicole McNichols, an internationally renowned human sexuality professor, author, and speaker whose course The Diversity of Human Sexuality is the most popular in the history of the University of Washington, enrolling over 4,000 students annually. Together, we unpack how to improve sexual intimacy using research-backed tools. We talk about how pleasure fuels desire, how to increase sexual desire in female partners and anyone experiencing low drive, and why improving intimacy in marriage requires intention, not magic. You'll learn how to improve sex life through small shifts in novelty, playfulness, and communication that make connection feel natural again. We also address resentment. If emotional safety has eroded over time, rebuilding sexual intimacy may need to start with repairing the friendship first. When couples strengthen communication and physical intimacy together, relationships often begin to feel alive again.
