We need to watch for them, enjoy being present, and appreciate them.

Are you unknowingly exposed to emotional toxins? Learn how small doses of negativity can become harmful—plus tools for protection.Have you ever wondered at what point something seemingly harmless turns harmful? Jeff and Eric talk about the scientific concept of “lethal dose 50 percent” (LD50)—the dose at which a substance kills 50% of test subjects—and turns it into a powerful metaphor for our emotional and mental lives.They talk about real-world examples from pest control to revisit the idea that “the poison is in the dose”—showing that toxicity isn't just about chemicals, but also about what we let into our hearts and minds. From social media and the news to complex family gatherings and self-criticism, modern life exposes us to mental and emotional toxins in small but accumulating doses.What you'll learn and why it matters:How everyday exposures (news, social media, relationships) can build up and become emotionally toxic over timeThe science of LD50 and how it relates to emotional intelligence and mental boundariesSigns you may have crossed from healthy consumption to emotional overloadHow to use “personal protective equipment” (PPE) for your mind—like emotional audits, self-awareness, and healthy boundariesThe importance of grace, self-forgiveness, and practical strategies for resetting after overexposureWhat is LD50 and how does it relate to emotional health? - LD50 stands for “lethal dose 50 percent”—the point at which a substance is fatal to half of a population. In emotional health, it represents how small exposures to negativity or stress can add up to unhealthy levels over time.How can everyday things like news and social media become toxic? - Repeated or excessive exposure—even to seemingly harmless things like news or social feeds—can accumulate and lead to emotional overwhelm, anxiety, or negativity if not managed.What are some signs I'm getting too much emotional toxicity? - Signs include persistent negative emotions, trouble sleeping after news or social media, obsession with issues you can't control, or lingering family stress.How can I protect myself from mental and emotional toxins? - Practice regular “emotional audits,” set boundaries around exposure, use mindful self-awareness, have intentional quiet time, and give yourself grace if you go too far.What should I do if I've already taken in too much negativity? - Don't dwell in shame—take a break, reset emotionally (with quiet time, walks, or play), and practice self-forgiveness so the critic doesn't take over.In each episode, Jeff and Eric will talk about what emotional intelligence, or understanding your emotions, can do for you in your daily and work life.

Welcome back to the Alt Goes Mainstream podcast.We were live from iCapital Connect's conference in Phoenix, where we sat down with some of the industry's leaders across asset management and wealth management.We spoke with Ava Mallin, Managing Director, US Private Wealth Solutions at Ardian.Ava brings a distinctive approach to how she works with the wealth channel. She emphasized that asset managers should treat capital as a client's legacy rather than “just dollars.” Speaking of legacy, Ardian is a firm with a rich legacy. The firm was born in 1996, when AXA's Chairman, Claude Bébéar, chairman of AXA, asked Dominique Senequier to create a private equity arm for the insurer. And so AXA Private Equity was born. The firm's first fund launched with a $100M French Buyout fund and two external clients.Today, Ardian stands tall as a giant in private markets, spanning asset classes and managing over $200B AUM.As a firm that provides investment solutions and customized strategies, Ardian thinks deeply about the breadth and depth of its relationships with LPs. Ava brings this perspective to bear in the wealth channel, which was evident in our conversation.Ava shared how she brings a uniquely human perspective to fundraising and partnering with the wealth channel. She believes managing money is managing emotion, which is critical for GPs to understand how wealth advisors manage their relationships with clients.We had a fascinating conversation, covering: The importance of understanding the human and emotional side that it takes to build enduring partnerships with LPs.Why US LPs have a growing interest in diversification and want exposure to Europe.Why secondaries is a partnership business with LPs and GPs.The importance of educating the wealth channel on private markets.Why Ardian prefers the term “evergreen” over “semi-liquid.” Why GPs should work with the wealth channel only if they have true commitment to the channel and top-down support from senior leadership.BioAva Mallin joined Ardian in 2022. She is responsible for Private Wealth relationships in the US. Prior to joining Ardian, she spent seven years at Carlyle in their Private Wealth group. She is based in New York.Thanks, Ava, for sharing your wisdom, expertise, and passion for how you approach working with the wealth channel and your focus on EQ as part of building relationships with advisors that enable them to treat their clients' capital as legacy.

Yesterday, we confronted a critical question: Who should have negative-zero earning potential? We looked at how society usually measures earning potential by how much money someone can extract. But what happens when that extraction destroys the planet, dysregulates communities, and leaves everyone else picking up the broken pieces? Real worth isn't built on destruction—it's anchored in sovereign leadership, nervous system regulation, and regenerative growth. Destructive extraction operates at a net-negative, while true leaders step into authentic capacity for a better future.We know real worth builds value by creating sustainable, long-term impact—measurable in personal growth, spiritual ascension, our immediate and extended communities, and out to the entire world. It leaves behind a real legacy that shows humanity what we are truly made of: genuine strength and authentic love, not pretend power. And definitely not destruction and havoc.Today, we turn to the vital follow-up: What should earning potential be based on? For you & all—for humanity.When we measure capacity purely through external output, force, or hustle, we miss the true foundation of sustainable wealth: somatic regulation, nervous system capacity, and authentic human worth. Real earning potential isn't about how much you can extract or force—it's about the genuine value you bring to the table and your ability to safely receive, keep, and build that value for yourself and the collective.True leaders know that real worth isn't a battle; it's a regenerative service that offers genuine value to the world.
As AI rapidly transforms the workplace, uniquely human qualities are becoming more valuable than ever before. In this episode of the Can You Hear Me? podcast, co-hosts Eileen Rochford and Rob Johnson explore why emotional intelligence will ultimately outshine technical skills in our advancing technological landscape.

EQ: Equalizer Being smart isn't always enough. How you respond, communicate, handle conflict, and understand the emotions of yourself and others can have just as much impact on your life as what you know.In this episode of Medicine Ball, we dive into EQ—Emotional Intelligence and why it matters in your relationships, career, personal growth, and everyday life. We break down the difference between IQ and EQ, and why having a high IQ doesn't automatically mean you know how to navigate people, pressure, conflict, or your own emotions.We'll look at real-life examples of low EQ vs. high EQ responses—from arguments and criticism to misunderstandings, stressful situations, and difficult conversations. You'll hear the difference between reacting emotionally and responding intentionally, and how emotional intelligence can completely change the outcome of a situation.We'll also explore practical ways to strengthen your EQ, including:Becoming more self-awareLearning to recognize and manage your emotionsPracticing empathyListening instead of immediately reactingImproving communicationHandling criticism without becoming defensiveManaging conflict more effectivelyTaking responsibility for your actionsCreating space between an emotion and your responseYour emotions aren't the problem. Not knowing how to manage them can be.This episode is about learning how to read the room, read yourself, and respond instead of simply reacting. Because emotional intelligence isn't about suppressing your emotions—it's about understanding them well enough to use them wisely.
We could all use to raise our emotional intelligence (EQ) level at least a little bit. Why? Because we seem to make one of two mistakes when it comes to working with our inner energies. Either make the mistake of repressing or avoiding our emotions or we make the mistake of expressing them in ways that aren't helpful. The pathway to a high EQ is something called, Emotional Regulation, and that's what this short, 3-part series is all about. How can we have and feel our feelings—in other words, not repress them—but not allow them to overwhelm us to such a degree that we dump them on everyone around us and usually make matters worse? That is the question we seek to answer in this series. In part three, we focus on mental techniques that play a key role in emotional regulation. You will learn: · Why the mind is behind almost all emotional upset; · 3 Stoic techniques create emotional regulation; · How astrophysics can help with emotional regulation; · And much, much more.

Send us Fan MailSunday, Aug. 23, 2026, message from apostle Tommy Miller. Recorded live at Legacy Church in New Philadelphia, Ohio. Part of the ongoing Doxa series, which explores the Greek word translated as "glory" in English. This week we examine the word "dikaioō," better rendered as "vindicated" than "justified," and what that means. Jesus actively pursues people to vindicate them, to restore the true identity of those who have been lied about.Learn more about Legacy Church: https://www.legacychurchint.org/Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/legacychurchohFollow us on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/@LegacyChurchOHSow into what we're doing: https://www.legacychurchint.org/give#vindicator #vindicated #justified #doxa #glory #glorification #sacredbiology #biodivine #asheissoareweinthisworld #unveiled #conscience #sons #manifestsons #fathers #union #legacychurchoh #newcreation #jesus #church #jesuschrist #gospel #transfigured #revelator #apostle #deathless #immortality #believe #bible #creator #godisgood #grace #hope #sermonshots #sermonclips #holyspirit #love #godislove #kingdom #peace #freedom #memes #truth #inspiration #motivationalquotes #vibes #positivevibes #christ #jesuslovesyou #russellbrand #jordanbpeterson #joerogan #chrispratt #atm #tommymiller #soulintelligence #EQ #emotionalintelligence Support the show

Her work bridges clinical rigor, personality research, and identity-level transformation. With more than 20 years of practice and study, she is known for helping gifted, high-functioning women read burnout as information rather than failure, accurately name moral injury, reclaim original identity, and return to work as calling—the co-creative contribution they were made for. A PhD in counseling psychology from the University of Kansas, Robyn's academic formation is rooted in vocational psychology and the psychology of gifted and talented people across the lifespan—a body of work she contributed to as co-author of the award-winning Smart Girls in the 21st Century: Understanding Talented Girls and Women (2014). That foundation extends into positive psychology, creativity research, and optimal human development, and culminates in the study of spiritual intelligence. Where mainstream wellness culture borrows loosely from spiritual concepts, Robyn draws from a more exacting source—the Catholic intellectual and mystical tradition, and the saints who mapped the interior life long before psychology had a name for it.

Turning Physical Sensations Into Emotional Insight: Tips for Everyday PracticeWe take an insightful look at emotional literacy—not just as a textbook concept, but as a lived, everyday experience grounded in our physical sensations.Through real-life stories and honest conversations, we explore how emotions manifest in the body, why these physical cues matter, and how learning to recognize them can help us shift from simply reacting to thoughtfully responding.Whether you've just started your journey with emotional intelligence or you're looking for practical ways to build self-awareness, today's discussion offers encouragement, relatable examples, and useful exercises to help you tune in to what your emotions are truly telling you.We dig into the process of building emotional intelligence, break down the difference between reacting and responding, and remind ourselves that growth is a journey—one where self-compassion matters as much as self-awareness.Resource Mentioned:Kairos Prison Ministry: A Christian prison ministry that involves organized talks and group sessions to help residents (prisoners) make better choices, referencing concepts similar to emotional intelligence. For more information, you can visit the official website: https://www.kairosprisonministry.org/3 Key Takeaways:Physical Sensations Are Powerful Messengers: Emotions don't just happen in your head. Paying attention to where you feel anger, relief, or jealousy in your body can amplify the message your emotions are trying to send you. This awareness is a learnable skill that gets easier and faster with practice.React vs. Respond: There's always a split-second window between feeling an emotion and choosing your action. Practicing the pause, even for a few seconds, helps shift you from knee-jerk reactions to thoughtful responses that serve you (and your relationships) better.Self-Compassion on the Journey: Don't judge yourself for where you are. Emotional literacy is just like building a house—it takes time, intention, and sometimes things look messy before they come together. Every step forward is progress worth celebrating.Moments00:00 Identifying Physical Signs of Frustration04:00 The benefits of using new tech06:32 Building habits takes time11:09 Discovering a property tax lien15:50 Body as an amplifier analogy17:48 Recognizing emotional patterns22:45 Managing internal narratives24:41 Reflecting on past abandonment issues27:31 Importance of catching issues earlyIn each episode, Jeff and Eric will talk about what emotional intelligence, or understanding your emotions, can do for you in your daily and work life.

In this episode, Dr. K unpacks the unique challenges of high intelligence, explaining why gifted individuals are exceptionally prone to chronic anxiety, overwhelm, and severe burnout. Moving beyond the popular myth of intelligence as a pure superpower, he breaks down the neurobiology of an undisciplined mind, why smart people develop fragile coping habits, and how to stop using calculations as a shield against taking action. What to expect in this episode: The Burden of a High IQ: Why having superior cognitive ability directly multiplies your daily anxiety, as your brain's capacity to run complex calculations forces you to build highly robust predictive models of everything that could go wrong. The 100-Problem Trap: Why gifted individuals easily freeze up; while an average brain might predict a single solvable problem, a high-IQ mind predicts 100 future problems but remains physically limited by time and space to only solving 10 of them. The Compression Delusion: How smart people waste their mental energy trying to "whittle down," reshape, and calculate their way out of problems to make them perfectly solvable, rather than simply taking a single step forward. The Curse of Early Success: Why gifted kids fail to build discipline because their fast minds allowed them to bypass studying entirely, leaving them saddled with fragile habits that collapse under real-world challenges. The 800-Pound Tiger: Why a highly intelligent, undisciplined mind is like trying to control a wild tiger on a leash, and why IQ tests completely fail to measure your actual ability to regulate your thoughts and set rational goals. Why Geniuses Earn Less: A look at the surprising economic data showing that while income generally increases with IQ, it actually craters at the very highest levels of intelligence. The EQ Buffer: How individuals can leverage high emotional intelligence (EQ) to buffer cognitive gaps, utilizing deep empathy and emotional regulation to build strong social relationships and excel at work.

We could all use to raise our emotional intelligence (EQ) level at least a little bit. Why? Because we seem to make one of two mistakes when it comes to working with our inner energies. Either make the mistake of repressing or avoiding our emotions or we make the mistake of expressing them in ways that aren't helpful. The pathway to a high EQ is something called, Emotional Regulation, and that's what this short, 3-part series is all about. How can we have and feel our feelings—in other words, not repress them—but not allow them to overwhelm us to such a degree that we dump them on everyone around us and usually make matters worse? That is the question we seek to answer in this series. In part two, we focus on physical techniques that play a key role in emotional regulation. You will learn: · Why thinking about emotions doesn't help; · That if emotions are felt physically, they're released physically; · How breathing, moving and vocalizing emotions releases them; · And much, much more.

Is there actually such a thing as the best voice-over microphone for women? It sounds like a simple question, but once the Pro Audio Suite starts pulling it apart, things get much more interesting. This week, George, Robert, and AP look at why choosing a microphone based on whether the talent is male or female probably misses the point entirely. What matters far more is what the voice is actually doing. Is it bright or dark? Sibilant? Mid forward? Deep and chesty? Does it have a lot of mouth noise? And does the microphone complement those characteristics, or simply exaggerate them? The crew gets into why a bright voice may benefit from a smoother or darker microphone, why a big baritone does not necessarily need even more bottom end, and why certain microphones can sound fantastic on one voice and downright horrible on another. Along the way they get into the Sennheiser 416, RØDE NTG3 and NTG5, Austrian Audio OC818 and CC8, Audio Technica AT4047SV, Neumann U47, U67, U87 and TLM 149, ribbon microphones, the Gefell M930, Grace M101 and even the dark art of matching microphones with preamps. They also look at how much you can fix with a little sympathetic EQ, why ribbons can sometimes be a brilliant solution for bright or aggressive voices, and why auditioning a few microphones on your own voice, in your own space, still beats buying something because somebody on the internet called it "the best". In this episode • Why there really isn't a "male mic" or "female mic" • Matching the microphone to the characteristics of the voice • Bright and sibilant voices versus darker microphones • Why deep voices don't necessarily need more bass • The 416 versus the RØDE NTG3 and NTG5 • Why the Austrian Audio OC818 makes a compelling desert island VO mic • The AT4047SV and transformer character • Why an expensive U87 can sound awful on the wrong voice • Using ribbon microphones for difficult or aggressive vocal tones • Condenser versus dynamic microphones for voice over • How microphone transient response can expose mouth noise • Matching microphones and preamps • Why auditioning microphones is still the smartest way to choose Sponsor and Production Credits Thanks to our sponsors Tri-Booth The portable VO booth that works.

Send in your music story!A great rock record does not just hit hard, it moves. We're joined by Blake, guitarist of Joyous Wolf, to talk about the band's first full-length LP In Between (out August 21) and why the album feels designed for a front-to-back listen even in a single-driven world. We dig into the story behind standout tracks like Karma and Juniper, how a “pretty” intro can become a heavy verse, and why sequencing matters when you want an emotional arc instead of a playlist of disconnected moments.Then we go deep on the gear and technique side of modern rock guitar. Blake breaks down recording versus touring rigs, speaker choices that keep low mids tight on loud stages, and the simplest solo upgrade we've heard in a long time: putting an EQ pedal in the effects loop for a dramatic, clean lift without wrecking your core tone. If you're into classic rock crunch, blues rock feel, Les Paul muscle, and practical guitar rig advice, you'll get a ton to try the next time you plug in.We also step outside the studio to talk nerd life and big questions: anime favorites, Zelda nostalgia, and a thoughtful debate about AI in music, machine learning, copyright, and what happens when tech shifts from “helpful tool” to “art replacement.” Hit play, share this with a guitarist or rock fan, and subscribe and leave a review if you want more conversations like this.Support the showPlease give us a quick rate and review.

Most leaders try to manage a crisis with logic; it rarely works. In this episode of Leading Through Crisis, host Céline Williams sits down with Doug Noll — a former trial lawyer, peacemaker, and author of De-Escalate — who spent over a decade teaching maximum-security inmates how to stop fights before they start. Doug breaks down the neuroscience of conflict: why 95% of the brain is emotional (not rational), why the prefrontal cortex shuts down under threat, and why leading through logic during a crisis is fighting biology itself. He introduces a simple, research-backed technique called affect labeling (saying "you feel" and naming someone's emotion) that can calm a nervous system in under two minutes, whether you're in a boardroom, a family crisis, or a prison yard. Along the way, Doug shares one of the most powerful stories from his 10 years working in California and Connecticut prisons: a woman serving a 25-to-life sentence who used this exact skill to reconnect with the son she had relinquished 18 years earlier. If you're a business owner, executive, or leader who wants practical tools for leading through change, conflict, and crisis — not just theory — this conversation will change how you show up in every hard conversation you have next. — Douglas E. Noll, JD, MA, is a lawyer-turned-peacemaker. He is an award-winning author, teacher, trainer, and highly experienced mediator. Doug's work carries him from international work to helping people resolve deep interpersonal and ideological conflicts. His training has included everything from teaching life inmates to be peacemakers and mediators in maximum-security prisons to training analysts at the Congressional Budget Office how to de-escalate members of Congress and staff.

Ilana Golan knows what it feels like to lose everything. After climbing from the Air Force to Intel to VP in a Silicon Valley startup, she thought she had made it. But when a trusted co-founder cut her out of their new business overnight, she was left with nothing. No job, no company, no income, and a shattered ego.

Research shows lawyers score below average in emotional intelligence compared to the general population. That gap is costing law firms talent, trust, and millions in preventable attrition. David Sarnoff is an ICF Certified Executive Coach, leadership trainer, and former attorney who founded Sarnoff Group LLC to do development work that actually sticks. He's also the co-author of Beyond the Courtroom: Proven Strategies from the Legal Field for Leadership, Emotional Intelligence, and Well-Being in the Modern Workplace. In this episode, David joins Scott Love to break down why emotional intelligence is so hard for lawyers to develop — and exactly how to build it. This is a legal-specific episode from the Sometimes Tuesdays series, and it's one of the most practically useful conversations the show has had on leadership, retention, and what actually keeps great attorneys and staff from walking out the door. You'll learn: Why lawyers as a population score below average in EQ — and what Martin Seligman's research on pessimism reveals about why The connection between low EQ and the legal profession's alarming rates of depression, substance abuse, and burnout Why 70% of what you communicate is nonverbal — and what partners are accidentally telling their teams without knowing it The "three words exercise" that reveals the gap between how you see yourself and how your team actually experiences you What the amygdala hijack is and why it makes otherwise rational lawyers act irrationally under stress The box breathing technique Navy SEALs use to stay calm in chaos — and how one practice group leader used it to stop a blow-up in real time What KKR discovered when they studied empathy in their portfolio company CEOs (it has nothing to do with being "nice") Why people don't leave law firms — they leave partners (and what the data says about attrition costs) How to use the EQI 2.0 assessment to get a baseline and track growth 3 specific action steps to start elevating your emotional intelligence today Visit: https://therainmakingpodcast.com/ YouTube: https://youtu.be/HrfAyoqt9EQ ---------------------------------------- If you are a successful law firm partner or law firm founder and want to hear about other options, please book a time on Scott Love's calendar here: https://calendly.com/scott-736/half-hour-phone-meeting-with-scott Or email Scott to connect with him at: scott@attorneysearchgroup.com ----------------------------------------
In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Melissa Robinson-Winemiller, an international bestselling author, TEDx speaker, EQ and empathy coach, and leading voice on emotional intelligence. After a 30-year career as a professional musician working with legendary talent like Ray Charles, David Ogden Stiers, and Mannheim Steamroller, toxic leadership eventually robbed her of her career. However, that incident inspired Dr. Melissa to transform leadership as we know it by redefining the one element that most leaders miss: empathy. Together, we explore how she transitioned from music to interdisciplinary leadership, why empathy is a strategic skill for better productivity and profit, and how self-empathy lays the foundation for all human-centric action In this episode, we discuss: How a 30-year career in music playing alongside icons like Ray Charles shifted into leadership consulting after experiencing toxic workplace leadership Debunking the myth that empathy is "just about feelings" by exploring its 43 different definitions The three core types of empathy for leaders: emotional, cognitive, and self-empathy The 4-step framework for self-empathy: self-observation, self-reflection, self-awareness, and self-compassion Why self-observation requires approaching your actions like a computer—critical, not caring, and without judgment Why empathy itself has no action, and how jumping straight into fixing things causes misplaced compassion The crucial difference between being "nice" as a social lubricant and being truly "kind" How sympathy (looking through your own eyes) differs from true empathy (looking through another person's perspective) Why empathy must come first in your toolkit before applying emotional intelligence skills How leaders can build an empathetic workplace culture by modeling behavior from the top down Dr. Melissa's TEDx talk, her handbook The Empathic Leader, and her vision to launch a center for leadership and empathy innovation About Dr. Melissa: As a professional musician, Dr. Melissa Robinson-Winemiller worked with major talent such as Ray Charles, David Ogden Stiers, and Mannheim Steamroller. But cold and toxic leadership eventually robbed her of a career that was 30+ years in the making. However, that incident inspired Dr. Melissa to transform leadership as we know it by redefining the one element that most leaders miss: empathy. Today, she's an international bestselling author, Editor's Pick TEDx speaker, EQ and empathy coach, and leading voice on emotional intelligence and empathy. She's known for blending lived experience, academic depth, and a sharp, data-driven approach that not only makes sense but demystifies how empathy translates to better productivity, innovation, and profit. Her mission is to invite everyone to approach empathy as a strategic skill for every human-centric action, not only for others but also for ourselves, and to step up in the way the future of leadership demands.

Send us Fan MailSunday, Aug. 9, 2026, message from apostle Tommy Miller. Recorded live in New Philadelphia, Ohio, at Legacy Church.Summary:The way God thinks about you is the truest definition of who you are, and aligning with His opinion of you is what it means to walk in glory. Doubt is not the absence of belief but the presence of two possible outcomes held simultaneously. Wherever two options exist — especially when one is an alternative to God's opinion — defeat, anxiety and instability can follow. Eliminating the second option is the path to boldness and breakthrough.Learn more about Legacy Church: https://www.legacychurchint.org/Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/legacychurchohFollow us on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/@legacychurchohSow into what we're doing: legacychurchint.org/give#doxa #glory #NoDoubt #identity #christed #asheissoareweinthisworld #asheissoareweinthisworld #unveiled #conscience #sons #manifestsons #union #legacychurchoh #newcreation #jesus #church #jesuschrist #gospel #transfigured #revelator #apostle #deathless #immortality #believe #bible #creator #godisgood #grace #hope #sermonshots #sermonclips #holyspirit #love #godislove #kingdom #peace #freedom #facebook #memes #truth #inspiration #motivationalquotes #vibes #positivevibes #christ #jesuslovesyou #russellbrand #jordanbpeterson #joerogan #atm #tommymiller #soulintelligence #EQ #emotionalintelligence Support the show

A peer-reviewed UC San Diego study found surgeons using Apple Vision Pro as their primary display during tear duct procedures completed operations about 19% faster than those using a traditional monitor, while maintaining successful outcomes. The panel also shares a fun Vision Pro encounter at Chicago O'Hare and considers how Apple's spatial computing platform is finding practical uses beyond entertainment. The discussion moves to Apple's latest software developments, including beta updates for AirPods, iOS, iPadOS, and macOS. New AirPods features include an updated interface, adaptive mode controls, custom EQ support, and translation capabilities, while iPadOS and iOS bring interface refinements, greater customization, and new Apple Intelligence photo tools. On the Mac, the panel highlights an important security update addressing a screen-sharing vulnerability, reports of significant MacBook Air supply constraints, and Apple's approaching sunset of Rosetta 2 support after macOS 27. They also examine reports that iCloud Private Relay can expose a user's real IP address under certain passkey-related circumstances. Other topics include CarPlay expanding to select pontoon boats, preparations and rumors surrounding Apple's September iPhone event, increased Apple Trade In values, the return of Ted Lasso, Madden NFL 27 joining Apple Arcade, new Apple Card travel benefits, the possibility of a free ad-supported Disney+ tier, and Leagues Cup 2026 coverage on Apple TV.

Real-Life Applications of Emotional Intelligence During Difficult TimesJeff East shares a personal and powerful story about how his practice of emotional intelligence helped him navigate a family health crisis.When his father-in-law faced serious medical challenges, Jeff found himself managing waves of fear, worry, and stress—not just for his father-in-law, but for his wife and her sister as well. Jeff walks us through the practical steps of the KCG model—Know Yourself, Choose Yourself, and Give Yourself—and shows how those tools enabled him to provide support, remain calm, and offer meaningful encouragement during a difficult time.Along the way, Jeff and Eric explore the realities of emotional patterns, the myths around "forbidden" emotions, and the important role self-empathy and listening play in being present for loved ones. Whether you're new to EQ or looking for real-life applications, this episode offers genuine insights and practical wisdom you can use when life gets tough.KCG ModelThe KCG model stands for Know Yourself, Choose Yourself, and Give Yourself. It's a guiding framework for practicing EQ in real-life circumstances 04:16.Moments00:00 Emergency surgery and complications05:47 Handling stress and support concerns07:50 Late-night unexpected events11:36 Understanding and managing emotions14:26 Intrinsic motivation and optimism17:02 Managing expectations in tough times23:18 Discussing the noble goal25:43 Emotional intelligence discussionHere are 3 key takeaways for anyone facing tough circumstances, at home or work:Awareness Is Step One: Recognize and name what you're feeling. Pausing to identify fear, worry, or frustration can stop runaway thoughts and bring clarity to what really needs attention.Intentional Response Over Reaction: Lean on EQ practices like consequential thinking. Ask, “What is my best path forward in this moment?” Responding intentionally, rather than reacting impulsively, helps support those around you.Presence Over Perfect Words: Sometimes being present and listening is more valuable than finding the perfect thing to say. Genuine empathy and simply showing up can be the greatest support.A reminder: you don't have to get it perfect. As long as you're practicing awareness and intentionality, you're moving in the right direction.In each episode, Jeff and Eric will talk about what emotional intelligence, or understanding your emotions, can do for you in your daily and work life.

Mixing Music with Dee Kei | Audio Production, Technical Tips, & Mindset
Lu's on vacation. Dee Kei is alone with a page of talking points and one of the most contested topics in audio engineering right now — and the result is one of the most thoughtful solo episodes the show has produced.This is not an episode about which AI tools Dee uses or recommends. It's about something harder to talk about: how engineers think about delegation, what happens when a probabilistic recommendation gets presented with the confidence of certainty, and why the pro-AI vs. anti-AI binary is the least useful frame anyone could bring to this conversation.Dee opens with a distinction that reframes the entire debate: there's a difference between assistance tools, delegation tools, and full replacement — and most of the discourse collapses all three into one. He argues that engineers have been using automated decision-making for decades (dynamic EQ, auto release, delay compensation, drum replacement, LUFS metering), so the real question was never whether machines should make decisions. The real question is how much of the contextual, consequential decision-making we're comfortable handing over — and whether we understand what's being lost in that handoff.From there he gets into the value engineers actually bring that no AI is accounting for: accountability, history with an artist, taste, creative confidence, the ability to hear the same note as a client and understand what they actually mean. He's direct about the economic effects coming — fewer junior engineer jobs, faster turnaround expectations, clients arriving with better rough mixes — but equally direct about what those changes don't mean: that the ceiling of professional audio work is getting any lower.The episode closes on a question Dee leaves deliberately open: if an AI assistant could eventually make every technical decision as well as a human engineer, what do we actually believe the mixer is there to do?SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON FOR EXCLUSIVE CONTENT!SUBSCRIBE TO YOUTUBEJoin the ‘Mixing Music Podcast' Discord!HIRE DEE KEIHIRE LUHIRE JAMESFind Dee Kei and Lu on Social Media:Instagram: @DeeKeiMixes @MasteredbyLu @JamesParrishMixesTwitter: @DeeKeiMixes @MasteredbyLuThe Mixing Music Podcast is sponsored by Izotope, Antares (Auto Tune), Sweetwater, Plugin Boutique, Lauten Audio, Filepass, & CanvaThe Mixing Music Podcast is a video and audio series on the art of music production and post-production.

How can higher education equip Gen Z to navigate rapid AI disruption, political polarization, and shifting workplace expectations? In this episode of Trending in Education, host Mike Palmer connects with Francesca Schuler, Executive Director of Dialogue Vanderbilt at Vanderbilt University. Drawing from her executive career as a COO and CEO in private-sector consumer and fitness industries, Francesca brings a fresh, operational lens to solving higher education's civil discourse challenge. Together, Mike and Francesca explore why modern communication frequently breaks down and why developing constructive dialogue habits—such as listening with curiosity, managing emotional reactivity, and asking thoughtful questions—is critical for modern leadership and citizenship. From creating tech-free conversational spaces like the "Vandy Speakeasy" to building nationwide partnerships through the Dialogue CoLab, Francesca shares actionable strategies to cultivate emotional intelligence (EQ), foster psychological flexibility, and empower students to thrive in a complex world. KEY INSIGHTS & DISCUSSION POINTS Habits Over Skills in Moments of Crisis: While functional skills are vital, leaders and students ultimately fall back on ingrained habits during high-pressure situations. Practicing daily habits like asking with curiosity, showing up without rigid certainty, and listening to learn builds long-term emotional intelligence (EQ) and resilience. Unlearning Technology's Bad Habits: Social media platforms and instant messaging reward hot takes, rigid positions, and immediate reactivity over thoughtful engagement. Treating AI as a supportive tool rather than the final answer preserves human judgment, nuance, and critical thinking. Tactical Campus Programs for Practice: Dialogue Vanderbilt creates low-stakes practice environments—such as the phone-free "Vandy Speakeasy"—and hands-on workshops like "Switch Sides" and "From Every Angle" to rehearse respectful debate and open inquiry. Institutional Neutrality and Citizenship: Rooted in Vanderbilt's historical unifying mission, maintaining institutional neutrality provides faculty and students space to explore complex ideas while learning how to agree—and disagree—more constructively. Busting Career & Personal Growth Myths: Re-evaluating pervasive narratives around imposter syndrome and work-life balance encourages individuals to embrace agency, navigate trade-offs, and prioritize core success traits: curiosity, humor, and getting things done (GSD). Scaling Civil Discourse Across Higher Education: Through initiatives like the Dialogue CoLab, over 30 higher education institutions—ranging from community colleges to state schools and private universities—are sharing best practices to foster constructive campus cultures nationwide.

Caroline Stokes tells CEOs something most of them don't want to hear: the AI question everyone is asking is the wrong one. She is the founder of FORWARD, a human capital solutions firm for pioneers, and the author of AfterShock to 2030: A CEO's Guide to Reinvention in the Age of AI, Climate, and Societal Collapse. Named to the Thinkers50 Radar Class of 2026, she was shortlisted for the Thinkers50 Leadership Award for a book she deliberately published digital-only to keep its carbon footprint near zero. Her route here was unusual. Raised between the UK and Singapore before the age of ten, she went from PR at Virgin to the early PlayStation team, then to executive search, then to coaching, and then back to school three separate times during and after the pandemic to study ESG at MIT, AI business strategy, and the new space economy. She is neurodivergent, and she credits that with how she reads systems and spots what a room is missing. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ WHAT CAROLINE COVERS IN THIS EPISODE 1. THE FOUR SHOCKS ALREADY HERE Economic instability, climate disruption, AI acceleration and societal fragmentation are not separate agenda items. They are one interconnected system, and leaders who treat them separately are already behind. 2. WHY AI IS THE WRONG FIRST QUESTION Yes, learn it, the way you had to learn email in 1994. But the question a board should actually be asking is how long the organisation can sustain itself at all. 3. THE CEOs WHO ARE QUITTING INSTEAD OF ADAPTING Many are cashing in their chips rather than building the polymathic organisations this moment demands. Caroline explains who she will and will not work with. 4. THE 100-DAY REINVENTION Built after she watched leaders at a top-three technology company shrug off a mandate from their new CEO with "it'll take two years." Her warning to them: you will be laying people off before that. 5. FIGHT, FLIGHT, FREEZE, FAWN The four avatars every leader defaults to under conflict. Not knowing yours is how you quietly sabotage your own strategy. 6. CLIMATE AS AN OPERATING CONSTRAINT Not an ESG line item. If your people are breathing smoke and getting migraines, the work does not happen. Maslow, applied to the modern workforce. 7. THINK LIKE A SCIENTIST OR AN ARTIST Michelangelo started with a block of marble and no finished image. Everyone has to start somewhere in a reality with no playbook. 8. HER ADVICE TO WOMEN LEADING RIGHT NOW Follow the curiosity that keeps stalking you. Ask what your seven-year-old self would want from you, and then go learn something new. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ABOUT CAROLINE STOKES Founder of FORWARD and a global leadership strategist for the Fifth Industrial Revolution. A Sony alum who worked on the PlayStation launch and a PCC-level, EQ 2.0-certified coach, she moved from executive headhunting into leadership reinvention. She is the author of AfterShock to 2030 (2025) and Elephants Before Unicorns (Entrepreneur Press, 2019), and a co-author of the HBR Guide to Navigating the Toxic Workplace (2024). Her 2019 TEDx talk predicted the convergence of AI, climate and societal disruption now shaping boardrooms.

A health technology executive with three decades of experience, she has led product and commercial organisations, served on public and private company boards, and advises early-stage ventures. She started Inspiring Women around a gap she kept running into: women make up roughly 70 percent of the healthcare workforce but hold about 20 percent of the C-suite seats.

On today's Ask Zac, I'm talking about playing in the context of a band, specifically how I used a Danelectro 6-String Bass (Tic-Tac Bass) with Brad Paisley on the Today Show.A lot of players talk about the history of instruments like the Fender Bass VI or Danelectro 6-String Bass, but not enough people talk about how to actually use them in a song. These instruments can be amazing when they complement the arrangement instead of fighting for space.I'll break down my part on Brad Paisley's song “This Town” from the Tackle Box album, including:* How I approached the Tic-Tac Bass part* Playing simple parts that support the song* Doubling Telecaster licks for a bigger sound* Using tremolo, overdrive, and EQ to make the instrument fit in a band* Why avoiding full chords and staying out of the bass player's way mattersI'll also share the story behind playing “This Town” and “Home Sweet Hotel” on the Today Show, including the gear I used, the Danelectro Hodad 6-String Bass, and how I approached the live performance.www.truetone.comTo Support the Channel:Patreon https://www.patreon.com/AskZachttps://ask-zac-shop.fourthwall.comTip jar: https://paypal.me/AskZacVenmo @AskZacToday Show with Brad Paisley "This Town"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMIJe18WeJg#AskZac #Danelectro #BassVI #TicTacBass #BradPaisley #Telecaster #SessionGuitarSupport the show
I was so thrilled to sit down again with my dear friends and true allies, Dave Smith and Brad Johnson . Every time we connect, it feels like a warm reminder of what sustained, meaningful allyship really looks like—not just showing up when it's trending, but doing the steady, daily work that actually moves the needle. Listening to them walk through their allyship trilogy, from Athena Rising to The Good Guys and now their latest book, Fair Share, brought back so many memories of my own journey navigating corporate America as a new mom. (Trust me, I've shed my fair share of tears over spilled milk in a workplace closet!) What I love most about Brad and Dave is how they balance deep research with practical, real-world solutions that lift everyone up. They remind us that creating gender fairness isn't just about asking individual allies to do more. It's about fixing the broken systems so doing the right thing becomes the default. Key Themes Caregiving Skills Build Better Workplace Leaders Active caregiving and fatherhood develop crucial human skills like empathy and emotional intelligence, which directly transfer into effective leadership at work. "Dad's brains begin to shift and change, too. We're developing these skills around empathy that translates right back into the workplace when we go back to work." — David Smith Moving from Individual Allyship to Systemic Change Relying solely on individual (s)heroics isn't enough to achieve true equity. Organizations must embed allyship and gender fairness directly into company policies, metrics, and manager training. "All of these ally efforts are gonna be sort of one by one by one forever. Until the workplace changes, you see all the estimates that we have about a century to go to get to real gender parity." — Brad Johnson Supporting Paid Leave and Caregiving Transitions Creating a culture that normalizes and actively plans for parental and caregiving leave for both mothers and fathers improves employee retention and strengthens managerial capabilities. "Think about the work that's gotta be done when he or she leaves the workforce for this paid leave period, the transition back into the workforce with a plan. The minute you can do that, you're making better managers." — David Smith Unlocking Hidden Talent Through Returnships Organizations facing talent shortages can tap into a massive, highly qualified pool of candidates by creating clear pathways for individuals returning to the workforce after extended caregiving breaks. "Organizations aren't looking at those women, and they're forgetting that. Half the people at the top of the curve on IQ, EQ, creativity, they're out there if you would only create a glide path to return to your organization." — Brad Johnson Actionable Takeaway for Listeners Audit and support your managerial capabilities: To move from individual efforts to systemic fairness, organizations must carefully select managers based on competencies and actively train them to execute flexible work policies, support parental leave transitions, and lead inclusively.

Daniel East is back for a no-agenda episode that turns into Gig Gab therapy. You’ll hear about Brit Drozda’s fifth record in pre-production, unannounced pop-up gigs built from cajon, guitar, and keys, and the Rayvel grand opening on Florida’s Space Coast, where a rocket went up over the stage during Starman. Then Daniel gets into those moments of bliss you can’t fish for…the ones that arrive because you prepared enough to stop thinking. If you’re feeling it, they’re feeling it. And when a piece of the puzzle is missing, that’s your cue to admit a gig isn’t the right fit for you and be willing to walk. Then Dave takes the couch: three gigs in a row where he became the accidental sound savior. A theater where nobody knew how Dante was routed. An outdoor stage hard-panned left with monitors EQ’d to the disco smile. A club that handed him the iPad at line check. Daniel’s prescription: an expectations agreement when you don’t have a contract, an audio tech who also speaks IT, and permission to say no. Always Be Performing is real, but you set a standard, you don’t meet one. Plus: find your clock first, and Gear Gab on Earthworks drum mics, the Kompakt 421, and why a high-pass filter beats deep EQ cuts every time. 00:00:00 Gig Gab 544 – Monday, July 27th, 2026 July 27th: Barbie-in-a-Blender Guest co-host: Daniel East 00:03:53 Brit Drozda's new record 00:04:46 Pop-up gigs!

The AI revolution is quietly rewriting what makes a leader effective, and most executives haven't noticed. In this episode of DarrenDaily On-Demand, Darren Hardy makes the case that as AI masters technical work, the real advantage shifts from IQ to emotional intelligence, handing women a statistical edge and the greatest leadership opportunity in decades. He contrasts two companies facing identical crises. One leader used pressure and lost millions. The other used empathy and beat revenue targets by 27%. Darren also breaks down five signals that reveal high-EQ talent in any interview, and how to spot the leaders already hiding in plain sight on your team. Join the A-Team. One Mission. One Team.
