As we age, the complexities of love and intimacy evolve, often leading to challenges that can impact our relationships. In this episode of “Sex Advice for Seniors,” I engaged in a candid conversation with clinical psychologist Dr. Karen Stewart, exploring the intersection of mental health, retirement, and sexual relationships among older adults. One of the key themes we discussed was the profound effect of mental health on sexual relationships, particularly for men in later life. Dr. Stewart pointed out that many older adults experience a crisis of identity after retirement. For instance, men who have defined themselves by their careers may struggle with feelings of depression and aimlessness post-retirement. This shift can lead to challenges in intimacy, as depression can diminish sexual desire. Dr. Stewart emphasised that it's difficult to engage in a fulfilling sex life when one is battling feelings of inadequacy or sadness.Ageing is a complex journey that affects our relationships in profound ways. As Dr. Stewart highlighted, understanding the interplay between mental health, medication, and intimacy is vital for older adults. Open communication, empathy, and a willingness to explore new forms of intimacy can help partners navigate the challenges that arise as they age together. By fostering understanding and connection, couples can maintain vibrant, fulfilling relationships well into their later years.Unlock even more pleasure, clarity, and confidence in your intimate life by becoming a paid subscriber.

The conversation centers on the evolving role of automation in Managed Service Providers (MSPs), particularly the implementation of human-in-the-loop AI systems. Mathieu Tougas, CEO of Mizo Technologies, emphasizes that while automation can significantly enhance efficiency—reporting a 26% increase in technician capacity and a 30% reduction in escalations—maintaining human oversight is crucial for ensuring service quality. This approach allows technicians to delegate low-value tasks to AI agents while focusing on higher-value customer interactions, thereby preserving the essential human element in service delivery.Tougas outlines the methodology behind these efficiency gains, which involves analyzing ticket resolution times before and after deploying Mizo's solutions. The data indicates that technicians can handle more tickets in less time, which can lead to reduced staffing needs without compromising service quality. He also addresses common misconceptions among MSPs regarding AI, particularly the fear of losing control over service quality when delegating tasks to automated systems. Instead, he argues that AI should be viewed as a tool to enhance technician capabilities rather than replace them.The discussion also touches on the importance of integrating AI tools into existing workflows without causing disruption. Mizo Technologies employs a two-week fine-tuning period to adapt its systems to the specific processes of each MSP, ensuring a smoother transition and minimizing the need for extensive retraining. This gradual approach allows organizations to build trust in the AI systems while optimizing their service desk operations.For MSPs and IT service leaders, the key takeaway is the necessity of balancing automation with human oversight to maintain service quality. As the industry moves towards greater automation, understanding the right contexts for AI deployment and ensuring robust processes are in place will be essential for maximizing efficiency and customer satisfaction. Embracing AI thoughtfully can lead to significant operational improvements while still addressing the critical need for human interaction in service delivery.

The world of prehospital medicine is constantly evolving, driven by new research, technological advancements, and a shared commitment to improving patient care and provider well-being. As EMS professionals, staying informed about these developments goes beyond a professional obligation; it is an opportunity to improve our practice, champion our profession, and ultimately make a greater impact on saving lives. In this article, we will explore some of the latest research findings that are reshaping our field, from workplace culture to cutting-edge technology.   The Culture of Care: Supporting EMS Providers Our work is demanding, both physically and emotionally, and the culture within our agencies plays a critical role in our well-being. A recent systematic review in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health revealed that many EMS providers avoid using organizational mental health services due to stigma and a perception that these programs lack genuine care. The study emphasizes the need for person-centered support and a cultural shift that normalizes seeking help as a sign of strength (Johnston et al., 2025). This cultural component also impacts retention. Another study in the same journal found that agencies with collaborative, team-oriented "clan" cultures had significantly lower turnover rates compared to those with rigid or chaotic structures. For leaders in EMS, fostering a supportive environment is not just about morale. It is a strategic imperative for retaining skilled clinicians (Kamholz et al., 2025).   Professional Recognition: Breaking Barriers Across the globe, paramedics are striving for recognition as integrated healthcare professionals. A qualitative study in BMC Health Services Research identified common barriers, including outdated legislation, inconsistent regulation, and insufficient funding. While the pandemic temporarily highlighted our capabilities, the momentum has waned. The study calls for targeted policy reforms and investments in education and leadership to solidify our role in the broader healthcare system (Feerick et al., 2025). Physical Demands and Injury Prevention The physical toll of our work is undeniable. A scoping review in Applied Ergonomics confirmed that musculoskeletal injuries, particularly to the back, are rampant in EMS. Tasks like handling stretchers and patient extractions are among the most strenuous. The review also highlighted fitness disparities, with male paramedics generally showing more strength but less flexibility than their female counterparts. These findings underscore the need for targeted injury prevention programs and realistic physical standards to keep us safe throughout our careers (Marsh et al., 2025).   Advancements in Cardiac Arrest Care When it comes to cardiac arrest, every second counts. A study in Resuscitation reinforced the value of bystander CPR, showing that dispatcher-assisted CPR significantly improves outcomes for untrained bystanders. For those with prior CPR training, acting independently yielded even better results. This highlights the importance of public CPR education alongside dispatcher support (Tagami et al., 2025). On the scene, our interventions matter immensely. Research in The Journal of Emergency Medicine found that for traumatic cardiac arrest patients, aggressive interventions like prehospital thoracostomy can be lifesaving (McWilliam et al., 2025). Meanwhile, a study in Critical Care Medicine revealed that extracorporeal CPR (ECPR) significantly improves outcomes for patients with refractory ventricular fibrillation, emphasizing the need for early transport to specialized centers.   The Role of Technology in EMS Technology is poised to revolutionize EMS, from dispatch to diagnosis. A study in The American Journal of Emergency Medicine demonstrated that large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT could prioritize ambulance requests with remarkable accuracy, aligning with expert paramedic decisions over 76 percent of the time. This proof of concept suggests that AI could one day enhance resource allocation in dispatch centers (Shekhar et al., 2025). On the diagnostic front, machine learning is opening new possibilities. For example, a study in Bioengineering showed that analyzing photoplethysmography waveforms could estimate blood loss in trauma patients, offering a non-invasive way to guide resuscitation (Gonzalez et al., 2025). Similarly, research in Medical Engineering & Physics explored using multidimensional data to differentiate ischemic from hemorrhagic strokes in the field, potentially enabling more targeted prehospital care (Alshehri et al., 2025).   Addressing Disparities in Care Equity in EMS is a cornerstone of our profession, yet recent studies highlight troubling disparities. Research in JAMA Network Open found that ambulance offload times were significantly longer in communities with higher proportions of Black residents (Zhou et al., 2025). Another study in JAMA Surgery revealed that Black and Asian trauma patients were less likely to receive helicopter transport compared to White patients. These findings are a call to action for all of us to examine our systems and biases to ensure equitable care for every patient (Mpody et al., 2025).   Looking Ahead The research discussed here represents just a fraction of the advancements shaping EMS today. From improving workplace culture and injury prevention to leveraging AI and addressing systemic inequities, these findings have real-world implications for our protocols, training, and advocacy efforts. As EMS professionals, we have a responsibility to stay informed and apply these insights to our practice.

Matthew Nikravesh, CEO and co-founder of Solarus Technologies, discussed the evolution of managed services in response to the increasing demand for cloud solutions, particularly Azure, during the pandemic. Solaris Technologies, founded in 2012, focuses on providing managed services primarily to nonprofits and small to mid-sized businesses. The company has implemented an automated cloud management platform in partnership with Nerdio, which has enabled them to efficiently deploy Azure Virtual Desktops and streamline support processes for their engineers.The conversation highlighted the importance of automation in reducing operational inefficiencies. Solarus Technologies has integrated automation tools, such as PIA, to manage user onboarding and ticket dispatching, achieving a 35% automation rate for incoming tickets. However, Nikravesh acknowledged that the journey toward effective automation is iterative, requiring ongoing adjustments to improve performance. The company has also seen significant benefits from automating user onboarding processes, which have reduced the back-and-forth communication typically associated with new hires.Nikravesh also addressed the challenges faced by nonprofits in adopting AI technologies, noting that many organizations struggle with data readiness and security. To assist clients in overcoming these hurdles, Solarus Technologies collaborates with an AI consultant to conduct readiness assessments, ensuring that clients can effectively leverage AI tools when they are prepared. This proactive approach aims to help nonprofits focus on their missions rather than IT concerns.For MSPs and IT service leaders, the discussion underscores the necessity of evaluating tool stacks and vendor partnerships strategically. Nikravesh emphasized the importance of smart revenue growth, advising MSPs to assess their client relationships and eliminate those that do not contribute positively to their bottom line. As the industry continues to evolve, the integration of cloud services and AI will remain critical topics for MSPs, necessitating a focus on delivering value while managing operational complexities.

Does every podcast need a lesson, or can a good story be enough? In today's evaluation, we examine Shared Delights, a short-form storytelling podcast designed to offer warmth, humor, and a brief escape. Instead of aiming for transformation or instruction, the show focuses on how a story feels in the moment and what it gives the listener emotionally. Using Shared Delights as a case study, we take a close look at how pacing, pauses, and delivery shape clarity and attention. We explore sound design choices and how music and effects can either support the story or pull focus away from it.

You've probably heard all the amazing benefits of stem cells. They can heal injuries, reverse aging, and even fight chronic disease.But there is a lot of confusion on what's actually safe, what works, and what to avoid.I was interviewed by Greg the Hydrogen Man, and Greg asked many questions about stem cell therapy that many people wanted to know the answers to, from what cell sources to choose, to whether a person should try to get as many cells as possible in a stem cell treatment.I break down the critical differences between stem cells from your own aging body and those from pristine, birth-derived sources like umbilical cord tissue.We talk about how older cells lose their intelligence, how they may fail to fight off abnormal or cancerous cells, and how younger stem cells still retain the power to recognize and kill what doesn't belong.We also discuss how to enhance the success of stem cell therapy through tools like red light therapy, hydrogen water, ozone, and detox. Stem cells need a clean, supportive environment to thrive.

Craig Merrigan, Co-founder & CEO of Spotlight Solar, discussed his background in the solar industry and his decision to co-found Spotlight Solar, which creates aesthetic solar structures such as shade structures and solar trees. He explained that the company’s goal is to make solar technology more engaging and visible to foster its greater adoption. Craig highlighted that while solar had a positive image, its limited visibility, particularly in residential and commercial settings, hindered its wider adoption. Today on episode 309 of The Green Insider, Spotlight Solar offers two main products: The Haven Solar Shelter: a picnic table with a solar-powered shade canopy that charges devices and provides backup power. Solar Trees: large, sculptural solar installations for public spaces to promote renewable energy. Solar Trees are engineered for durability, able to withstand Category 5 hurricanes and flooding. Examples include 26 installations in Miami and a Haven Solar Shelter that survived major storm surges on Sanibel Island. Solar Trees use deep, reinforced concrete foundations, while Haven shelters require no underground work and can be set up quickly with minimal skills. These products are designed for public engagement and visibility, not just cost optimization. Solar Trees generate significant public awareness, with over 60 million annual impressions, and are often installed to showcase environmental stewardship. Both Solar Trees and Haven shelters generate 4–10 kilowatts of power, with some models including battery storage for power during outages. Installations are found in universities, public spaces, and military bases. Eight Haven shelters will soon be installed at a major international airport, with design considerations to minimize reflectivity. Future improvements to the Haven line are expected, including enhanced resilience and more outdoor furniture options.

Cloud managed services are experiencing rapid growth, with the market projected to expand from approximately $50.62 billion in 2025 to $120 billion by 2035, reflecting a compound annual growth rate of 8.16%. This growth is driven by organizations across various sectors, including finance and healthcare, seeking to enhance their cloud operations and address cybersecurity risks. However, a widening performance gap among managed service providers (MSPs) is evident, as only the most capable firms are capitalizing on this demand. According to Service Leadership data, while the overall profitability of the MSP sector remains strong, not all providers are experiencing equal growth, raising concerns about competitive positioning.Recent surveys indicate that many businesses investing in artificial intelligence (AI) are not seeing financial returns, with only about 2% of Canadian business leaders reporting positive results from their generative AI investments. A study by KPMG highlights that many companies are still in the experimental phase of AI adoption, failing to integrate the technology effectively into their operations. Additionally, a significant skills gap exists among channel partners, with only 26% currently offering advanced network services with integrated AI capabilities. This disconnect between customer expectations and partner capabilities is contributing to the widening gap in performance.Frontline workers express concerns regarding the lack of transparency in AI integration within their workplaces. A survey conducted by Deputy found that while nearly half of workplaces utilize AI, only 25% of workers report regular interaction with it, and many are unaware of its usage. This communication gap can lead to mistrust and confusion among employees, which may hinder successful AI adoption. Despite these concerns, a majority of workers report satisfaction with AI's role in their tasks, indicating potential for positive outcomes if communication improves.For MSPs and IT service leaders, the current landscape presents both challenges and opportunities. The demand for cloud, AI, and managed services is surging, but success will depend on the ability to operationalize these technologies effectively. Providers must focus on enhancing their capabilities, improving communication with clients, and ensuring that they deliver measurable outcomes. As the market differentiates between high performers and those lagging behind, it is crucial for MSPs to adapt and evolve their services to meet the growing expectations of their clients. Three things to know today00:00 Cloud Demand Surges, CEO Priorities Shift, and MSP Performance Splits Into Clear Winners and Laggards05:40 Studies Show AI Investment Outpacing Capability, Leaving Firms Without ROI and Partners Struggling to Deliver10:00 AI Rollout Outpaces Employer Transparency, Creating Worker Confusion and Risk for IT Providers This is the Business of Tech.     Supported by:  https://mailprotector.com/mspradio/
