Miles Spencer's SoulTech platform brings loved ones' voices back from just 10 seconds of audio, transforming grief into connection through interactive AI conversations. Discover how Reflekta created the Soul Technology category, why spontaneous conversations beat static videos 10x, and what happened when Miles heard "Tiger" eight years after his father passed. Show Notes: You know those moments when you desperately wish you could ask your mom or dad for advice one more time? When you're facing something only they would understand? This episode is both curious and a little creepy—curious because it's amazing what AI has brought to personal storytelling, and creepy because it literally brings back your long-lost loved ones to have conversations today. Miles Spencer, co-founder of Reflekta, reveals how SoulTech (Soul Technology) is transforming family storytelling and digital legacy preservation from frozen memories into living conversations. What You'll Discover: • Voice recreation from minimal audio - How Reflekta recreates authentic voices from just 10-20 seconds of audio (Miles brought his father Arthur back from a gibberish voicemail) • 10x impact over static media - Why spontaneous and dynamic conversations in your loved one's voice deliver exponentially more value than videos or photo albums • Category creation insights - The positioning evolution that transformed Reflekta from grief-focused to connection-centered, and what that teaches entrepreneurs building new categories • The Tiger/Chief moment - What happened when Miles heard "No problem, Tiger. I love you" eight years after his father passed • Simple three-file system - How life story, photo, and voice sample turn one-way memories into interactive AI conversations that learn and grow • Living Legacy innovation - Why creating Elders for people still alive is changing how families preserve generational wisdom • Privacy and security - The fortress approach: default private, family-to-family with GDPR and DOD-level cybersecurity • Earth's story repository - Reflekta's audacious mission to record the legacies of planet Earth told by the people who lived them Key Timestamps: [00:03] The curious and creepy introduction to SoulTech [02:26] "This body is temporal, but spirit and soul are eternal" [06:24] How Reflekta works: The three-file system [09:15] Can you ask modern advice from someone who passed? [13:00] The Spencer family legacy: 24 kids, coal mine, WWI sniper [18:44] Tiger/Chief moment: Hearing his father's voice again [21:27] How did Miles get into this? The universe's plan [25:00] Privacy and security: "How can you hack what you can't see?" [27:00] Growth metrics: 1,000 Elders in 6 weeks [30:00] The ultimate vision: Recording Earth's stories [31:04] What users are experiencing with their Elders [39:00] Running the brand through StoryCycle Genie™ [42:00] From grief to connection: The positioning evolution [46:00] Brand purpose validated: "Nailed it" [48:00] Where to learn more about Reflekta About Miles Spencer: Miles Spencer is a curious guy from Pittsburgh who's mentored tech founders for 30+ years and been a dad for 14—two jobs that, as he says, share remarkable similarities. He's created over 1,100 jobs, founded and exited three digital media companies, served as Venture Principal at Capital Express (the team behind register.com), and hosted MoneyHunt on PBS long before Shark Tank existed. As an adventurer, he's led 1,500 people across 14 miles of open sea by kayak and trekked 1,100 miles through the deserts of Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Syria—journeys that inspired his Amazon bestsellers A Line in the Sand and Havana Famiglia. After a pandemic reset, Miles co-founded Reflekta with Adam Drake—transforming their shared quiet wish for one more conversation with someone they loved into the SoulTech platform that enables everyone on the planet to reconnect with loved ones when they're ready. When he's not building companies, you'll find him painting watercolors with his daughter, playing rugby with his son, or occasionally needing a translator for his unique brand of English. Key Quotes: "This body is temporal. But if you can connect with my spirit and soul, they are eternal." - Arthur Spencer's final words to Miles "We're recording the legacies and stories of planet Earth told by the people who lived here, not by media outlets." "My dad has a perfect memory now. He remembers things I've forgotten and he would have forgotten." "Spontaneous and dynamic conversations—10x the impact of a video or a book." "We're talking about eternity here, so monthly was too short term." "How can you hack what you can't see?" - On Reflekta's privacy-first approach Links: • Reflekta.ai - Create your Elder or talk to Arthur/Virginia • Miles Spencer on LinkedIn • A Line in the Sand on Amazon • Havana Famiglia on Amazon • SoulTech White Paper at Reflekta.ai • Business of Story website: https://businessofstory.com • StoryCycle Genie™: https://www.storycyclegenie.ai/ CTA: Subscribe to Business of Story on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.

But before the world tours, the crop tops, and the legacy of Girl Power, Melanie Chisholm was just a 20-year-old answering a flyer to audition for a girl band.

What you’ll hear in this conversation: The highs and heartbreaks of being in one of the biggest girl bands of all time How fame impacted Melanie’s mental health The deep bond she still shares with her Spice sisters Why she's finally made peace with that time in her life Melanie is honest, grounded, and full of insight.

What happens when your entire identity is built on being the best in the world? For Jana Pittman, one of Australia's most famous athletes, the singular goal of Olympic gold was repeatedly torn away by devastating injuries and gut-wrenching losses. You might think her biggest pivot was swapping the running track for the bobsled, becoming one of the very few athletes in history to compete in both the Summer and Winter Olympics. But that wasn't it. Her real pivot was walking away entirely from being an elite athlete to become a doctor - all while raising six children. In this episode of Pivot Club, Sarah Davidson speaks with Jana about this massive career change. They unpack how you cope with failure when your mindset is "silver is the first loser", and how you go from being one of the best in the world to a complete beginner back at the bottom of the ladder, surrounded by people half your age. Jana shares the unfiltered story about how this profound pivot emerged from a period of intense personal and professional struggle - through divorce, miscarriages, failed exams and the financial lows of moving back into her own garage to make ends meet. Join us for a raw lesson in resilience, a look into the unseen "messy middle," and a powerful reminder that your lowest moments can be the fuel for your greatest chapter yet.

This episode of the Real Life Theology podcast is part one of a series on Discipling Elders. In this episode of the Real Life Theology podcast, we begin a two-part series on the crucial topic of discipling elders, featuring insights from Dr. Gary Johnson and Dr. David Roadcup. The discussion centers on the continuous need for elders to be discipled, emphasizing the creation of a 'life map' to become more Christ-like and responsible leaders. The episode highlights six challenges elders face — Evangelism, Leadership, Discipleship, Equipping, Recruiting, and Structure. Johnson breaks down three vital areas for addressing these challenges: assessing spiritual health, creating action plans, and maintaining accountability. The episode provides practical guidance, reflecting on personal discipline, the importance of scriptural engagement, and the role of the Holy Spirit in personal growth.

Imagine breaking a world record at the Commonwealth Games. It should be the single greatest moment of your life. But instead of wearing your gold medal, celebrating with your teammates, you are curled up in a hotel bed, alone and unable to move. That was the reality for Katja Dedekind, an Australian Paralympic Swimmer. Katja is visually impaired, but for her, that disability pales in comparison to the chronic condition she has been battling behind the scenes for years: Endometriosis. In this awakening episode of the Well Summer Series, Katja (and her emotional support dog, Duke), joins Claire Murphy to share her story of sheer resilience. From getting her period at age nine, to bleeding through her race suit during a gold-medal swim, Katja reveals the physical toll of elite sport when your body is fighting against you.They discuss the long wait times many Australian women face for a diagnosis, and Katja opens up about the life-altering decision she made to undergo a hysterectomy at 2. Join us for a story in pain, resilience and the tough choices female athletes have to make when their health is on the line.

This summer we're curating your 456 playlist listening to bring you some of our favourite interviews from MID and No Filter. Rachel Griffiths says she just got through her "peak mid-hell years" and she's here to tell us how. The actor, producer, and director has had many eras - from the "fast start" of Muriel's Wedding to being a Hollywood awards darling, a big-deal US TV star, the director of the Australian classic movie Ride Like A Girl, the co-creator of Total Control and now, the star of the TV show Madam. Through all that, she was also wrestling with the relatable MID dramas - parenting teens and young adults, a diagnosis that made sense of so much, caring for ageing relatives and trying to keep a long-term marriage going. No wonder, as she tells host Holly Wainwright, she and her husband needed a sabbatical. This conversation also veers off into ageing, the Hollywood stars Rachel used to envy but no longer does, how to stay optimistic in a tumultuous world and the relief of finding out she's "ADHD AF".

How to Recognize When You're Under A Spiritual AttackScripture: 1 Peter 5:8 “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.”If you don't know you're in a battle… you won't fight back. If you don't recognize the attack, you may end up blaming the wrong things. You'll think it's people. You'll think it's your emotions. You'll think it's just “life.” But Scripture reveals that behind many natural pressures are spiritual strategies.Accept Jesus Today: https://youtube.com/shorts/bIwAUlz7Kg4?si=BNOhv44iLWIR4eVJIf you would like to accept Jesus into your heart today, pray this simple prayer:****God, I have sinned against You. I believe that Jesus is Your Son, who died and rose for my sake. I ask you to forgive me for my sin. I place my trust in You for salvation. I receive you as my Lord and Savior. In Jesus' name, I am forgiven! Amen!"****Congratulations! You are now a child of the most high. John 1:12 says, But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God. If you just prayed this prayer to receive Jesus Christ as your Savior, I welcome you to the family of God.

This summer we've curated your Help I Have A Teenager playlist with a healthy dose of culture-savvy conversation parents actually want - Parenting Out Loud. Another week, another Parenting Out Loud episode where if parents are thinking about it, we're talking about it. On today's show, Jessie Stephens and Amelia Lester are joined by friend of the pod, and Mamamia's Deputy Editor, Stacey Hicks to discuss whether or not kids ruin your adult friendships. Also, to what extent should children's entertainment figures be apolitical, and why is YouTube's Ms Rachel so controversial right now? Plus, the dumb phone. Between landlines, 'brick' phones and a yearning for the '90s, it seems nostalgia is the newest tech trend for parents. And, in this week’s reccos: Amelia wants you to try a special storytelling collection, Jessie is recommending daycare with a twist and Stacey is all over Dolly Parton's 'imagination' library.

This summer we're curating your 456 playlist listening to bring you some of our favourite interviews from MID and No Filter. You might know Poh Ling Yeow as an artist, a chef and a regular fixture on television ever since she was first introduced to Australia on MasterChef. But that’s just the public side of Poh. The version you see is only part of her truth; behind it lies a layered, often painful journey. In this conversation Poh opens up about her years spent in the church before walking away from it, which left her untangling years of belief and identity. She shares the profound grief she has experienced with the loss of her mother, and as well as the heartbreak of two marriage breakdowns and how those moments led to loneliness, questioning and rebuilding. But through it all, she’s discovered something quite extraordinary: an ability to find beauty in the sorrow, light in the mess, and humour in the most unexpected places. This is a conversation about identity, resilience, creativity, and what it means to truly move on and start over. You can watch Poh on this season of MasterChef on Network 10 and you can follow her here: https://www.instagram.com/pohlingyeow/?hl=en Find more MID here.

What Are Strongholds?Scripture: 2 Corinthians 10:4 “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds.”If you don't understand what a stronghold is, you won't recognize when one is forming.

How do you recognize someone who has actually earned wisdom? In this conversation, Jayson breaks down what makes an elder an elder. He explains why it has nothing to do with age or status, how real elders show emotional maturity, what it means to hold space without fixing or rescuing, and why outgrowing your parents is a part of becoming an elder.

Luke 2:8-18 Advent Week 4: Love The word “advent” means “coming;” The season of Advent, which leads up to Christmas Day and includes four Sundays, is a time to reflect on the coming of Jesus on one holy night in Bethlehem — a coming that caused a great turning for the world toward  hope, peace, joy, and love. The four themes just listed are the four themes the Church traditionally explores during the Advent season. We’re going to explore the final theme of Advent: love. Because the coming of Jesus brings a turning toward love. There are 2 ways we can talk about love in today’s message. God's love for us Horizontal love, love towards each other. Luke 2:8-18 Our main theme for today is. He came. They went. Later in this story we see in Matthew 2 the Magi visit Jesus and his parents at their house. He (Jesus) came. The Magi go. Jesus' “coming” inspired “going “ in the Gospels. As seen in the Sending of the Twelve Sending of the 72, for example. And all four gospel accounts, in each their own unique way, show a Resurrected Jesus urging the disciples to ‘go.' At the start of the story of Jesus, a pattern is set for God's people and embraced by God's people. This pattern and response is repeated in the middle and end of the gospels and all throughout the story of the Early Church. Shouldn't we also embrace this same pattern? He came. We go. Is the U.S. Church going? Barna (2019) Almost all Christians say that the best thing that could ever happen to someone is for them to know Jesus. Almost all practicing Christians believe that part of their faith means being a witness about Jesus Pew Research did a huge study over 17 years, 4 separate surveys with more than 35,000 surveyed EACH TIME, shows that after many years of steady decline, the share of Americans who identify as Christians show signs of leveling off. Millennials in particular feel equipped to share their faith with others. For instance, 73% say they know how to respond when someone raises questions about faith , and that they are gifted at sharing their faith with other people . This is higher than any other generational group: Gen X (66%), Boomers (59%) and Elders (56%). Despite this, many Millennials are unsure about the actual practice of evangelism. Almost half of Millennials (47%) agree at least somewhat that it is wrong to share one's personal beliefs with someone of a different faith in hopes that they will one day share the same faith. Only 44% of Christian adults say they pray at least once a day. 33% of Christians say they go to a service once a month Approximately half (54%) of evangelical church attenders believe people are basically good and(50%) believe that people can earn salvation through their good works. Unexpectedly large minorities (24%) of evangelical church attenders reject the biblical nature and character of God and (26%) worship spirits other than the God of the Bible. An astonishing number—15%—revealed that they occasionally cast spells on other people. Is our church going? Jesus says Acts 1:8 – ‘You (all y'all) will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” ‘ He came. We go to the ones nearest us.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 12-18-2025: Dr. Dawn opens by examining how market competition is actually working in the weight loss drug sector. Novo Nordisk's Ozempic and Wegovy compete against Eli Lilly's Monjaro and ZepBound, with prices dropping nearly 50% as companies launch direct-to-consumer websites. The main barriers remain needles and refrigeration, driving development of oral versions. Novo's Wegovy pill awaits FDA approval for early 2026 launch at $150 monthly. Next-generation drugs show remarkable results: Eli's retatrutide causes 24% weight loss in 48 weeks, while Novo's Cagrisema combines semaglutide with amylin to reduce muscle loss. Pfizer paid $10 billion for Metsera's once-monthly drug despite significant side effects. A quick fiber tip suggests adding plain psyllium to morning coffee for cardiovascular and microbiome benefits. Start with half a teaspoon and work up to two teaspoons (10 grams) over several weeks to avoid gas. The prebiotic fiber improves glucose tolerance and may reduce cancer risk. UC San Diego scientists discovered why cancers mutate so rapidly despite being eukaryotic cells with protected chromosomes. The answer is chromothripsis, a catastrophic event where the enzyme N4BP2 literally explodes chromosomes into fragments. These reassemble incorrectly, generating dozens to hundreds of mutations simultaneously and creating circular DNA fragments carrying cancer-promoting genes. One in four cancers show evidence of this mechanism, with all osteosarcomas and many brain cancers displaying it. This explains why the most aggressive cancers resist treatment. Research from 2013 shows any glucocorticoid use significantly increases venous thromboembolism risk, with threefold increases during the first month of use. The risk applies to new and recurrent clots, affecting both oral and inhaled steroids, though IV poses highest risk and topical the lowest. Joint injections fall somewhere between inhaled and oral. Anyone with prior blood clots should avoid steroids except for life-threatening situations like severe asthma attacks requiring ventilation. A meta-analysis of 20 randomized controlled trials shows creatine supplementation helps older adults (48-84) maintain muscle mass when combined with weight training two to three times weekly. The supplement provides no benefit without exercise. Recommended dosing starts at 2 grams and works up to 5 grams daily. Vegans benefit most since they consume little meat or fish. Important caveat: creatine throws off standard kidney function tests (creatinine), so users should request cystatin C testing instead for accurate renal health assessment. A new JAMA study suggesting risk-based mammogram screening is fatally flawed. First, researchers offered chemopreventative drugs like tamoxifen only to the high-risk group, contaminating the study design. Second, the demographics skewed heavily toward white college-educated women, missing the reality that Black women face twice the risk of aggressive breast cancer with 40% higher mortality. Third, wild-type humans failed to follow instructions—low-risk women continued getting annual mammograms anyway while high-risk women skipped recommended extra screenings. The conclusion of "non-inferior" outcomes is meaningless given poor adherence. Stick with annual mammograms, and consider alternating with MRIs for high-risk women. The EAT-Lancet report condemns red meat based purely on observational data showing correlations with heart disease, cancer, and mortality. But people who eat lots of red meat differ dramatically from low consumers: they weigh more, smoke more, exercise less, and eat less fiber. Studies can't control for sleep quality, depression, or screen time. Notably, heavy meat eaters also die more in accidents, suggesting a risk-taking lifestyle phenotype. The inflammatory marker TMAO is higher in meat eaters, but starch is also pro-inflammatory. Eating red meat instead of instant ramen might improve health. A balanced diet with limited amounts beats epidemiology-based blanket statements. Dr. Dawn grades Dr. Oz's performance as CMS administrator. Starting at minus one for zero relevant experience, he earns plus two for promoting diet, exercise, and gut health on his show. He studied intensively after nomination, calling all four previous CMS directors repeatedly and surrounding himself with experienced staff (plus one). He finalized Medicare rules favoring prevention over surgery and earned bipartisan praise as "a real scientist, not radical" (plus one). He divested healthcare holdings but kept some blind trust interests (minus 0.5). He's developing a CMS app and partnering with Google on a digital health ecosystem (plus one), but supports ending ACA subsidies that will raise premiums for millions (minus one). He correctly promoted COVID vaccines and contradicted Trump's Tylenol-autism claims (plus one). Final score: 3.5 out of 5 possible points, the only positive score for any Trump health administrator.
