In this episode, I sit down with Robin Smith, Chief Technology Officer at TravelPerk, to hear how one of Europe's fastest-growing travel platforms is blending automation with empathy in a sector built on unpredictability. Robin shares how that continuity has shaped his view of disruption, from the rise of web and mobile booking to the rapid acceleration of cloud platforms and now AI. He explains why staying rooted in a single mission has helped him stay curious and open to change in a way frequent job hopping never could. We explore how TravelPerk is positioning itself as a consumer-grade experience built with business-grade rigour, serving mid-market companies that want seamless travel and expense tools without compromising on policies, duty of care, or integrations. Robin unpacks why large enterprises often lag in tech adoption and how nimble, decentralised teams are setting a new benchmark for innovation in corporate travel. The conversation dives into AI's growing role in travel, from Yokoy's AI driven expense automation to the company's internal enablement strategy powered by its partnership with 9x. But Robin also reminds us of something easy to forget amid all the hype: 31 percent of travelers still pick up the phone when disruption hits. The appetite for AI is growing, but human connection isn't going away. We also look at the invisible complexity behind making global travel feel simple, from airline add ons and multi country compliance to supporting collaborative group travel in a post pandemic world. Robin shares why the real challenge isn't building software, it's hiding the machinery behind a product that “just works.” As we round off the conversation, Robin offers advice to engineers and product leaders hoping to follow a similar path. His takeaway is refreshingly honest: ignore most advice, and fall in love with the problem. It's not about replicating someone else's journey. It's about staying curious and building your own. So, will AI ever fully automate travel bookings or is the human touch still too valuable to leave behind? And what does building resilience look like when the rules of travel keep changing? Tune in and let me know what you think.

I ran across John O'Leary's podcast (@JohnO'LearyInspries) and you can listen to it HERE.  It got me thinking about all the times we run into people, we never know what they are going through. We are all going through things, some good, some not so good.  If we can approach people with a bit more kindness, empathy, encouragement, etc., we might find some connections with them that we never say coming. One thing for sure, the world needs more of this for sure.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.

On today's show, we confront the growing and deeply troubling trend of politicizing tragedy—specifically, the devastating floods that have ravaged parts of Texas. These floods have claimed innocent lives, including those of young girls, and left countless families shattered in their wake. Rather than uniting in grief, compassion, and support, some individuals on social media have chosen instead to weaponize the disaster for political gain.Shockingly, posts have surfaced directly blaming President Trump and his supporters for the natural disaster—some even suggesting that those affected "got what they deserved." This type of rhetoric isn't just distasteful; it's morally bankrupt. To suggest that political affiliation somehow justifies death or suffering is a line that should never be crossed. Freedom Marketplace: https://freedommarketplace.net The Stack: https://www.toddhuffshow.com/stack-of-stuff Email: todd@toddhuffshow.comPhone: 317.210.2830Follow us on…Instagram: @toddhuffshowFacebook: The Todd Huff ShowTwitter: @toddhuffshowLinkedIn: The Todd Huff ShowTikTok: @toddhuffshowSupport Our Partners:https://www.toddhuffshow.com/partners Links:https://www.mypillow.com/todd Promo Code: TODDhttps://mystore.com/toddhttps://soltea.com - Promo Code TODD for $29.95 off your first orderRed, White, & Brand – Text TODD at 317-210-2830 for a 10% discount.

  Slam the Gavel welcomes Marineka Bowman to the podcast. Marineka was last on Season 3, Episodes 104, 131, 159, 160, 174 and 184, Season 4, Episodes 22, 48 and 61, Season 5, Episodes 149, 210, 238, 248, 256, 258, 263, 271 and 275. HELLO DOGE and Pam Bondi.     Today, Marineka Bowman updated us on her case where the counselor, Swiyah Whittinington, with 3 years of experience is handling her daughter's counseling. The therapist has said that child cannot bond with mother, is afraid of her, though the counselor has never reached out to Marineka (mother). Also this counselor has cancelled many appointments in April and also picked up and went to work for another agency. Bear in mind, that the therapist has ties to Attorney Laura Brooks.      The first counselor at Turning Corners who handled her daughter's counseling, had experience in Drug and Alcohol counseling, however no background in handling children with PTSD or Child Psychological Abuse.      The third party parasite, Guardian Ad Litem, Patricia Weir communicates with the father. Apparently the father has many connections in this case. Collusion abound, Judge Natalie Haskins should have recused herself long ago......    This is a silent pain that people take for granted when there are no contact orders and personality disorders are running the courtroom, until it happens to you. Parents and their children are suffering and the judge doesn't care and leaves up decisions to inept therapists/counselors.To Reach Marineka Bowman;  dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comSupportshow(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri)Maryann Petri: dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comhttps://www.tiktok.com/@maryannpetriFacebook:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/guitarpeace/Pinterest: Slam The Gavel Podcast/@guitarpeaceLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maryann-petri-62a46b1ab/  YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536  Twitter https://x.com/PetriMaryannEzlegalsuit.com   https://ko-fi.com/maryannpetrihttps://www.zazzle.com/store/slam_the_gavel/about*DISCLAIMER* The use of this information is at the viewer/user's own risk.

Imagine being a fly on the wall, hearing what people really say about your business when you're not in the room. That's the promise of AI-driven SEO today. I sat down with Michael Buckbee, a marketing and tech veteran, to talk about how tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity are reshaping brand visibility. This isn't your standard SEO conversation, it's a peek behind the digital curtain to discover what AI thinks about your business. Trust me, it's more revealing than you might expect. Whether you're refining your brand, trying to figure out your target audience, or stalking your competitors (in the most professional way, of course), AI can offer surprisingly honest and useful feedback. If you know what to ask. Key Takeaways: AI tools reflect public perception: AI platforms synthesize massive amounts of data and offer a “consensus view” of your brand. This feedback can be shockingly accurate, or totally misaligned with your goals, but either way, it's insight you shouldn't ignore. Your content influences AI responses: AI can hallucinate when it lacks clear information, often making up details to fill in gaps. You can reduce misinformation by creating targeted, well-written content that clarifies key facts about your business. Use AI for brand audits and competitive research: You can (and should) ask ChatGPT and similar tools what they think of your competitors. Discover what they're doing well and where they're falling short. Low-volume search content now matters more: Traditional SEO focused on high-volume keywords. Today, many questions are answered directly in AI tools, making long-tail, intent-driven content more valuable than ever. Empathy and intent are your SEO secret weapons: Instead of chasing trends, focus on what your ideal customer is trying to accomplish. Answer their real questions with real solutions, and both humans and AI will reward you. What can you do today?  Type your business name into ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Gemini and ask: “What do you know about [your company name]?” and “Who is their target audience?” Ask ChatGPT to perform a SWOT analysis of your business — you might be surprised by what it sees as strengths or weaknesses. Look up a competitor in the same way to uncover gaps or areas where your brand could shine brighter. Review your content library. Are you answering the right questions? If not, prioritize content that clarifies your expertise and speaks directly to your audience's needs. Don't just write for Google anymore. Make sure your website is accessible to AI bots, and focus on content that solves problems clearly and helpfully. AI doesn't have to be a mystery. it can be your mirror, your marketing consultant, and your competitive edge. You just have to ask the right questions.   About Michael Buckbee   Michael has worked at the intersection of marketing and technology for nearly two decades. Past clients include the US Navy, Fortune 100 companies, YC startups, presidential candidates, federal agencies, rock bands, and foreign governments. Today, he's the co-founder of Knowatoa, a service that tracks brand visibility, rankings, and sentiment within AI search services like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google Gemini. LEARN MORE

Summary In this episode of the AI for Sales podcast, Chad Burmeister and Townsend Wardlaw explore the profound impact of consciousness on business growth, the evolution of user interfaces in the age of AI, and the critical role of empathy in sales and personal transformation. Townsend emphasizes that IQ is becoming obsolete, while emotional intelligence and empathy are paramount for success. The conversation delves into the importance of understanding trust and integrity, and how true transformation comes from shifting one's consciousness rather than merely acquiring information. Townsend shares insights on how to cultivate empathy and the necessity of looking beyond surface-level problems to uncover deeper truths in coaching and sales. Takeaways Consciousness is the ultimate tool for growing your business. In the age of AI, emotional intelligence is more valuable than IQ. Empathy is essential for effective coaching and sales. Transformation comes from applying information, not just acquiring it. Trust is about the degree to which someone will do what they say. Empathy allows us to see the world from another's perspective. Salespeople must engage beyond the customer's initial problem. Consciousness shifts can lead to profound personal and professional growth. AI cannot replace the human experience of empathy and transformation. Understanding one's own consciousness is key to helping others.

Gratitude is a deeply transformative way of looking at our lives. In this episode, we talk about what it means to really apply gratitude into our daily experiences and what this approach offers us.

What if healing doesn't come from expertise, but from empathy? In this transformative conversation, David Polidi sits down with internationally renowned Motivational Interviewing trainer Stephen Andrew to explore what it really means to be present with someone in their pain. Stephen challenges the dominant medical model of mental health—assess, diagnose, and treat—and offers instead a radically human approach: one rooted in compassion, collaboration, and what he calls radical humility. Drawing from decades of experience, Stephen shares how MI is not just a technique, but a way of being—a spiritual, relational posture that meets people where they are, without judgment or agenda. Together, David and Stephen dive into the concept of the “trauma injury”—a phrase that invites healing and hope rather than pathology. They explore how many of our deepest wounds stem from power imbalances, and how true healing can only happen in spaces where we move from “power over” to “power with.” You'll hear powerful reflections on: The three G's of empathy: genuine, gentle, and a guess Why MI is Carl Rogers 2.0 How trauma teaches us to believe we don't matter—and how empathy can quiet the nervous system enough for hope to return Why empathy is not a performance, but a presence How the “container” of compassion and acceptance allows the “medicine” of empowerment and partnership to emerge This episode isn't just for therapists—it's for anyone who wants to show up more fully, more authentically, and more tenderly in their relationships. If you've ever wondered what real healing looks like—or how to hold space for someone else's pain—this conversation will stay with you long after it ends. “The individual is like a garden to be tended, not a machine to be repaired.” —Stephen Andrew

In the final episode of the Gate of Generosity series (Day 98, Orchos Tzaddikim, page 578, Treasure for Life edition) on the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe emphasizes the importance of using wealth generously to acquire mitzvahs, such as purchasing a costly Esrog, as exemplified by Rabban Gamliel, to demonstrate devotion to Hashem. He compares this to investing in relationships by bringing home small gifts, like flowers, to nurture love and connection, urging listeners to prioritize mitzvahs over material luxuries like car upgrades, and to beautify mitzvahs with items like a fine menorah or Shabbos food to express love for God.Rabbi Wolbe encourages generosity beyond money, such as lending books or household items through gemachs (free loan societies), even if they return damaged, as this is part of the mitzvah. He stresses sharing Torah wisdom as the highest form of generosity, citing Rabbi Noah Weinberg's teaching to “teach what you know,” as it guides others toward eternal life. While warning against squandering wealth on personal desires, he advocates giving to the poor with the best intentions, promising divine rewards unseen by any eye, concluding the Gate of Generosity with a call to support Torch's global Torah outreach.Recorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on March 10, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on July 18, 2025_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.

In the interview, Mark and Johnny talk about: Johnny's return to this podcast (with neither of them being able to remember how many episodes he'd been on previously). Technically, this is his fourth time. Two previous episodes were interviews, and the other was Johnny's brief guest reflection spot in Episode 300 Why Johnny's new book THE ARTISAN AUTHOR is a much-anticipated and needed book in the industry A definition of what it means to be an artisan author, which is kind of the opposite of being a "rapid release, Kindle-only eBook" author The importance of taking away that stress-cycle of having to pump out so many books as a single prescription "how to do it" answer Remembering an important thing that, just like there is no single "the way" neither is being an artisan author The paradigm shift and mindset change that is required as a fundamental starting point How readers outside of the eBook/Kindle-only marketplace aren't as focused on lower price points and are okay with higher prices The reality of the publishing landscape in terms of the books being sold and money being earned The misinterpretation of the book Johnny and Sean Platt released years ago called WRITE, PUBLISH, REPEAT How there are two kinds of writers. The type who approach the business as trying to solve a puzzle and the type who approach it as a way of telling a story that they really want to share How a call of "go slow and make art" is not nearly as sexy as a "solution" The experience of driving off to meet a couple of long-term fans to sign and sell directly to them Connections and humanity being a key element of the artisan author experience The value of authentic connection, regardless of whether or not it's in person or online That powerful experience Johnny had doing one of his first major live book signing events as an author at Author Nation in Vegas and how that led to doing a lot more in person events The ability to adapt to a customer based on their reactions in person Look at it as connections, and then if sales happen . . . great! Being really generous with your time and attention Some of the logistics of doing an in person book signing A couple of unexpected and amusing anecdotes from selling books in person The Kickstarter that Johnny is doing for this book, which runs July 15 through Aug 14 (johnnybtruant.com/artisan) The additional "continuum of education" that Johnny is including in this Kickstarter (Artisan University) The importance of authors entering into things with conscious decisions rather than just blindly following the generic advice they've found And more . . .   After the interview Mark reflects on a few specific points from the discussion.   Links of Interest: Johnny B.

Through powerful personal stories, Jim challenges the outdated model of command-and-control and instead champions compassion, integrity, and empathy as leadership superpowers.Jim's stories span a lifetime—from defending a classmate from a bully in middle school to leading a tech team through a slow-motion sunset with unmatched transparency and care. His message is clear: real leadership isn't about ego or hierarchy. It's about consistency, self-awareness, doing the right thing when it's hard—and knowing when to lighten the mood with humor.

Everyone wants change, just not for themselves…I remember a great experiment we used to do back in my agency days.At the start of a workshop, we'd ask everyone to put on a prop. It could be a hat, a pair of oversized glasses, or even a superhero cape. After some initial laughter, everyone usually played along.But the interesting part wasn't putting the props on. It was what happened in the minutes that followed.As we started the "official" program, the first person would quietly take their prop off. Then a second would follow, and so on. At no point had I instructed them to stop wearing the props, yet, one by one, they always did.It was a powerful way to confront the group with the strong pull towards conformity. Towards the default mode of doing things. Towards getting back in line.As service design professionals, we know that to create meaningful change, we have to challenge the way things are currently done. But doing anything outside the status quo is inherently risky, especially when the incentive structures in our organizations are set up to reward those who play it safe.To break free, you need a magic ingredient: courage.But how do you build this courage? And why would you risk your career when it's so much easier to conform?Those are the big questions we explore in a fascinating conversation with Alberta Soranzo. As you'll hear, Alberta has lived these questions. She shares powerful stories about what it takes to create change. From convincing a client to choose a risky, unknown path over the safe bet, to the surprisingly profound impact of a personal choice about her own hair.We also get into what it really means for leaders to provide ‘air cover' for their teams and how you can find the courage to challenge the system even when you feel powerless — without burning yourself out in the process.I'm confident that you'll walk away with some unique insights from this honest conversation about leadership, courage, and taking risks.If you've been following along with the past few episodes, I think you'll start to see a clear pattern emerging. When multiple guests, independently of each other, touch on the same topics, it's probably something we should all be paying more attention to.Enjoy the conversation and keep making a positive impact.Be well,~ Marc--- [ 1.

In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe continues his discussion on the Gate of Generosity from Orchos Tzaddikim (Day 97, page 573, Treasure for Life edition), emphasizing the profound impact of charity (tzedakah) and generosity. He highlights how tzedakah uplifts nations, citing the Jewish community's outpouring of support after October 7th, including Torch's contribution of thousands of watches for soldiers in Israel. Rabbi Wolbe underscores that generosity extends beyond money to include kind words, thoughts, and actions, all of which accompany a person to the world to come, as supported by Talmudic teachings and verses from Psalms and Isaiah.Drawing on biblical figures like Abraham, King David, and King Solomon, Rabbi Wolbe illustrates how their tzedakah brought honor, life, and divine praise, noting that charity is so powerful that it redeems Israel and exalts God. He emphasizes that the world was built on kindness (olam chesed yibane), urging listeners to embrace generosity as a core trait that engenders blessings and eternal rewards. The episode ties into the Torch campaign, encouraging sponsorship to support global Jewish learning, reinforcing that every act of giving—whether material or spiritual—elevates both the giver and the community.Recorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on March 10, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on July 16, 2025_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.

In this thought-provoking episode of Regulated & Relational, Ginger Healy and Julie Beem invite you to explore the transformative power of empathy—not just as a personal virtue but as a vital, actionable skill that the world needs now more than ever.Listen actively – Focus on understanding, not fixing.Challenge your assumptions – Seek to understand those who are different from you.Model empathy for children – Help them recognize their own feelings first.Be compassionate with yourself – Self-awareness is the foundation for empathy.“Empathy isn't about imagining yourself in someone else's shoes—it's about listening deeply to their story and believing them.” – Ginger Healy

Send me a text!Empathy isn't the problem—but lately, some voices claim that it is, arguing that empathy leads to irrational decisions or even “civilizational suicide.” If you're someone who cares deeply, you probably reject the idea that empathy is a threat to society. In fact, you likely believe we need more empathy in the world, not less. Yet at the same time, you might find yourself struggling with empathy exhaustion and wondering how to stay engaged without burning out. This episode is to help you unpack how this flawed argument is connected to your exhaustion and how you can stay engaged in meaningful social change while caring for yourself as a compassionate person.In this episode of Mindset Unlimited, I explore why empathy isn't the problem or the solution but a complex human capacity that we need to understand to avoid manipulation and prevent burnout.Some of what I explore in this episode includes:Unmasking the manipulation of empathy in political and media narrativesBreaking the cycle of empathy and self-erasureUnderstanding compassion fatigueEngaging practical tools for emotional resilienceEPISODES REFERENCED:How to Avoid Overwhelm and Access JoyHow to Prioritize Your Needs (Beyond Maslow)How to Navigate Societal Gaslighting and Stay Empowered  LINKS FROM THIS EPISODE:Darwin Misunderstood Interview with Sam Altman Suicidal Empathy critique Nazi MindAre Billionaires Good For Society? The People's Media ProjectFrom Compassion Fatigue to Resilience Hypernormalization  Dr. Scott Lyons In Defense of EmpathyWhy a Lack of Empathy Is the Root of All EvilSocial Change Now by Deepa Iyer CONNECT WITH VALERIE:Ask ValerieSign up for Valerie's newsletterSchedule an exploration call This podcast was produced by Valerie Friedlander CoachingProud member of the Feminist Podcasters CollectiveSupport the show

Understanding your audience's psychology is the key to crafting communication that resonates.Persuading others isn't about magic spells or mind-reading tricks. According to Emily Falk, the real secret is simpler: know what your audience finds relevant, and you'll be able to craft a message that resonates.Falk is a professor of communication, psychology, and marketing at the University of Pennsylvania, Vice Dean of the Annenberg School of Communication, and director of the Communication Neuroscience Lab. In her book What We Value: The Neuroscience of Choice and Change, she reveals that our brains have what she calls a "social relevance system" — our ability to understand what other people are thinking and feeling. "I use social relevance as this kind of catchall for these thoughts about what other people are thinking and feeling, which also helps us predict what they're gonna do and how we might communicate successfully with them," she explains.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Falk and host Matt Abrahams explore how to put this insight into practice, from the power of storytelling to leveraging "neural synchrony" to create shared understanding. Whether you're motivating a team or influencing a customer, Falk offers science-backed strategies for tapping into your audience's psychology and communicating with relevance.Episode Reference Links:Emily FalkEmily's Book: What We ValueEp.39 Brains Love Stories: How Leveraging Neuroscience Can Capture People's EmotionsEp.188 Mind Reading 101: To Know What Your Audience Thinks, Just Ask  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 (02:47) - Neuroscience & Behavior Prediction (04:05) - Brain Systems in Persuasion (05:28) - Tailoring Messages for Impact (08:06) - Psychological Closeness & Relevance (10:34) - Power of Storytelling (13:48) - Neural Synchrony & Shared Meaning (15:33) - Better Conversations Through Sync (20:11) - Rapid-Fire Q&A with Emily Falk (24:23) - Conclusion  ********This Episode is brought to you by Strawberry.me.

Years ago, I was introduced to a former Marine and FBI counterintelligence officer whose job was to recruit spies to help protect our country. His secret weapon? Empathy. Finding out what is important to someone so that they can then build trust and find shared goals.Robin Dreek joins us again today to talk about his latest book, Unbreakable Alliances: A Spy Recruiter's Authoritative Guide to Cultivating Powerful and Lasting Connections. He shares the four keys to communication and the difference between inspiration, influence, and manipulation. He shares the behaviors of trust required to inspire people to feel safe.
