It is widely accepted that over time, humanity will need to expand its presence into the solar system. What are the challenges? Well, space and our nearby worlds have proved to be a much greater challenge than we had long thought. While the rigors of zero-g have been well researched on the International Space Station, the challenges of living in lower gravity, such as that found on the moon and Mars, has not yet been explored. And human reproduction in space, along with genetic challenges, is a complete unknown. Rice Univeristy professor and researcher Scott Solomon joins us to explore these topics in depth, and to posit possible solutions.

In this episode of The Retreat Leaders Podcast, Shannon sits down with Dan Berger to talk about something the retreat industry doesn't discuss nearly enough: belonging.

Together, Shannon and Dan dive into: Why men are facing a serious belonging and mental health crisis How retreats can act as temporary communities that create lasting impact Why small, intimate spaces outperform big, flashy experiences How retreat leaders can design environments that feel safe, connective, and meaningful And why belonging—not content—is what people are actually paying for This is a grounded, honest conversation about the responsibility retreat leaders hold and the opportunity they have to create spaces that genuinely change lives.   What You'll Learn in This Episode Why people aren't craving more content—they're craving connection How Dan's "belonging tank" framework applies directly to retreat design The four belonging personas every retreat leader should understand Why men's retreats and men's groups are more needed now than ever How intentional hospitality creates trust, safety, and transformation What post-COVID human connection really looks like (and why retreats are booming)   Notable Concepts Discussed The "Belonging Crisis," especially among men Retreats as containers for community, not just experiences Small-group power vs. large-scale events Ethical considerations around AI and preserving human-made experiences Designing spaces that do the emotional work before the programming begins Email Dan to get a free copy of his book, or to book his amazing retreat center and get a 3rd night free: dan@assemblehospitality.com Buy Dan's Book here: https://amzn.to/4qvuyts  About Dan Berger Dan J.

In this episode of Thats So Hindu, Mat McDermott speaks with Fred Stella (HAF) and John Morehead (Foundation for Religious Diplomacy). The conversation explores the complex dynamics of Christian-Hindu relations, focusing on proselytization efforts in India and the reactions from the Hindu community. They discuss the ethical boundaries of evangelism, the importance of understanding different religious perspectives, and the need for interfaith dialogue that respects both beliefs. They emphasize the significance of educating young Hindus about their own faith to better engage in discussions with Christians and navigate the challenges posed by missionary activities.TakeawaysChristian evangelism often overlooks the perspectives of those being evangelized.Hindus feel their spiritual identity is often treated as a problem needing a solution.Interfaith dialogue can foster understanding and respect between different faiths.Ethical evangelism should avoid coercion and respect individual beliefs.Education is crucial for Hindus to articulate their beliefs in interfaith discussions.Not all Christians share the same approach to evangelism; there are diverse perspectives.The Great Commission is a fundamental aspect of evangelical Christianity.Interfaith discussions should focus on storytelling rather than debate.Creating alliances with other faiths can help address anti-Hindu sentiment.Respectful dialogue can lead to greater understanding and cooperation among religions.Chapters00:00Setting the Stage for Christian-Hindu Relations05:59Understanding Hindu Perspectives on Proselytization16:49Navigating Differences in Evangelism and Understanding18:21The Nature of Evangelization23:44Understanding the Great Commission24:17Exploring New Perspectives on Other Religions27:14Sharing Spiritual Beliefs Ethically33:28Experiences of Unethical Evangelism39:03Ethics of Evangelism in Interfaith Contexts45:16Finding Common Ground in Diverse BeliefsKeywordsChristianity, Hinduism, proselytization, interfaith dialogue, evangelism, ethical boundaries, cultural relations, religious identity, Great Commission, spiritual beliefs Hosted on Acast.

Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov break down Trump's signature move: flooding the zone. From a massive Epstein document dump that swallows the news cycle, to Trump inserting himself into active investigations and openly pushing to “nationalize” voting, the noise is the point. Then, they zoom out to Trump's broader project — remaking Washington in his own image, from cultural institutions to public monuments — and ask whether it's ideology, ego, or legacy-building. Finally, they look at a very different kind of power: Bad Bunny's moment, celebrity resistance to Trump's immigration crackdown, and whether culture can still move politics when politics feels overwhelming.

This comes after a $2M malpractice lawsuit in New York, raising questions about consent and ethics. 2️⃣ ICE Drawdown in Minneapolis: 700 ICE agents are being pulled out amid violent anti-ICE protests and illegal roadblocks. Messaging failures from the White House have left conservatives frustrated, while Democrats exploit public confusion. 3️⃣ Immigration Polling & Enforcement: Public support for deporting illegal immigrants remains strong (61–73%), yet political missteps threaten enforcement and electoral strategy.

Send us a textWhat if the best way to serve clients starts with taking care of the therapist's body in the room? We sit down with Destiny Davis and Dr. Victoria Rodriguez to challenge one of the field's quiet myths: that clinician comfort is a distraction. Through lived experience and clinical expertise, they lay out a clearer path where water breaks, seating, pacing, and boundaries aren't extras—they're the foundation for sharper attunement, cleaner thinking, and more ethical care.We dig into the messy middle of practice: how to self-disclose without shifting focus, what to do when a client shares your diagnosis, and why “failed” disclosures can still be gold for treatment. You'll hear practical strategies for building resilience into your schedule—telehealth setups, three-hour intensives with breaks, tapering from weekly to biweekly to monthly, and batching medical appointments. We also examine continuity of care with fresh eyes: if a client cannot stabilize without weekly sessions, is private outpatient the right level? It's a tough question that protects both safety and sustainability.Community is the throughline. High-quality consultation groups, especially with other chronically ill providers, turn isolation into problem-solving. Cross-disciplinary collaboration—bringing PTs, OTs, and RDs into the conversation—helps you navigate the loop between symptoms, function, and mood. Along the way, we surface hidden biases about disability, replace them with a disability justice lens, and offer a humane template for therapists to model self-care that clients can actually use. If you've ever powered through pain, ignored a full bladder, or felt guilty canceling for a flare, this conversation hands you language, tools, and permission to practice differently.Subscribe for more grounded, clinician-centered conversations, share this episode with a colleague who needs it, and leave a review to help others find the show.

I have long had an interest in both the Keswick movement and the East Africa Revival. Dr Robinson Kariuki Mwangi's doctoral research brings the two together. His book is The Influence of Early Keswick Theology of Sanctification in the Socio-ethical Life of the East African Revival Movement: A Missional Perspective (Langham Academic, 2025). In this episode I frame my questions as an interested observer to allow Dr. Mwangi to explain his findings. The issue is this. Sanctification is an essential part of every Christian life. But how do its differing theologies shape our Christian walk and wider socio-ethic contexts? Grounded in the East Africa Revival Movement (EARM), this work seeks to answer how the Keswick theology of sanctification contributes to the socio-ethical understanding of "walking in the light" and consequently influences the mission of the Anglican Church in the Mount Kenya region. Dr. Mwangi uses exegetical analysis to understand the biblical roots of revival and sociological surveys and focus groups to understand how adherents of revival have developed in this region of Kenya. Scholars of theology and lived Christianity will find the observations in this work informative for further study. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of PRIM&R's podcast, "Research Ethics Reimagined," we explore the ethical and methodological complexities of suicide and self-harm research with Matthew Nock, PhD, the Edgar Pierce Professor of Psychology at Harvard University and former chair of the Harvard IRB. Dr. Nock discusses how research demonstrates that asking about suicide does not increase risk, the importance of IRB-researcher collaboration, and the challenges of real-time monitoring and intervention with high-risk participants. He shares insights from developing consensus guidelines on ethical conduct of suicide research and emphasizes the critical need for advancing this often-stigmatized field of study.

January 28, 2026: In today's episode, I zoom out to help you see what's really shaping the future of work. Before we talk about AI, leadership, or organizational strategy, we need to understand the forces happening outside our companies. Because work doesn't evolve in isolation—it's shaped by powerful external trends in technology, society, economics, and more. That's why I walk through the STEEPLE framework: a futurist tool designed to help leaders move from reacting to predicting—and from predicting to designing. STEEPLE stands for Social, Technological, Economic, Environmental, Political, Legal, and Ethical forces. Together, these seven domains explain how work is changing and what leaders need to prepare for over the next five-plus years, especially in an AI-driven world. We explore how AI is becoming the central nervous system of organizations, why skills are replacing job titles, how identity and purpose are reshaping careers, and why the economic contract between employers and employees is being rewritten in real time. I also share why the future of work isn't something organizations "deliver" to employees—it's something that's co-created, requiring accountability on both sides. If you're trying to make sense of rapid technological change, shifting employee expectations, and what leadership really means in the age of AI, this episode gives you a practical framework to understand what's coming—and how to design for it.

Ethical climate storytelling asks a hard question that most climate conversations avoid: why do so many people shut down when the science is clear and the stakes are high, and how do we tell stories that actually move people to care and act. In this episode, we explore how ethical climate storytelling can reconnect audiences to climate issues without fear, guilt, or manipulation, and why this approach matters for protecting the ocean and the communities that depend on it. Climate communication strategy often defaults to urgency and catastrophe, but our guest explains why that approach can backfire. Drawing on real-world media campaigns and public engagement work, Maya Lilly of The Years Project breaks down how human-centered narratives help people see themselves inside the climate story, especially when it comes to ocean warming, sea level rise, and coastal impacts. Hope-based climate communication emerges as one of the most emotional and surprising insights of the episode. Maya shares how ethical storytelling is not about sugarcoating reality, but about restoring agency. Listeners will hear why people are more likely to protect the ocean when they feel respected, informed, and capable, rather than overwhelmed or blamed.

Can you really get pregnant after menopause? Why do celebrities seem to defy biology when it comes to age and fertility? And just because pregnancy is possible at later ages, is it actually safe?  In this episode of Brave & Curious, Dr. Lora Shahine explores the questions so many people are quietly asking as they navigate fertility, aging, and family-building decisions. Dr. Shahine breaks down what the science actually says about age and fertility, including why it becomes harder to conceive with age, how eggs and sperm age differently, and what role options like IVF, egg freezing, and donor eggs play.  She also reviews headline-making cases of pregnancy at advanced reproductive age and explains why these headlines, while eye-catching, don't always tell the full medical story. She explains how clinicians think about risk, safety, and counseling for pregnancy later in life.

Ethical questions at work rarely show up as rules or compliance issues. They show up in the systems organizations design and the outcomes those systems produce. And even well-intentioned leaders can create harm without meaning to. In this episode, Dart and Ed explore legitimacy, responsibility, employees, power, and why acting ethically inside complex systems is so difficult, even when people know what the right thing is.Ed Freeman is best known for stakeholder theory, which challenged the idea that companies exist only to serve shareholders. He argues instead that businesses are built on relationships, and that ethics and strategy can't be separated.In this episode, Dart and Ed discuss:- Why stakeholder theory was never “shareholders versus everyone else”- What legitimacy means and why companies lose it- How ethics and strategy got separated- Why values come before business models- Managing stakeholders vs. building relationships- Why interdependence matters more than primacy- When trade-offs signal a lack of imagination- How ignoring people can lead to harm- Why ethics can't be outsourced to regulation- What it means to act ethically inside complex systems- And other topics…R.

How does a luxury brand honor the past while embracing the future? La Joya masters this by treating traditional craftsmanship as the foundation and contemporary design as the language. By blending age-old setting techniques with modern silhouettes, they ensure every piece feels timeless yet current. In a candid look at the supply chain, La Joya discusses the rigorous challenges of ethical and sustainable sourcing. Beyond simple certifications, the brand has overcome immense logistical hurdles to ensure that every gemstone is conflict-free and environmentally responsible, setting a new gold standard for transparency in high jewelry. ✨ Preserving the "One-of-a-Kind" Feeling In the age of mass production, La Joya remains an outlier. They preserve an intimate, bespoke experience for every client. Each piece is treated as a unique narrative, ensuring that the wearer doesn't just own jewelry, but a "one-of-a-kind" artifact that cannot be replicated by a machine. When selecting stones, La Joya looks past the standard Cut, Clarity, Color, and Carat. They seek "character"—a specific fire and personality within the gemstone that signals it is destined for a La Joya setting. It's an intuitive, artistic selection process that prioritizes the stone's unique soul over technical metrics alone. When asked about legacy, the vision is clear: La Joya creates heirloom pieces intended to be passed down through generations. The goal is for a piece to tell a story of love, resilience, and artistry 50 years from now, acting as a tangible bridge between the past and the future. La Joya is evolving to meet the tastes of Gen Z and Alpha collectors by leaning into personalization and digital transparency. By staying true to their core identity—quality and ethics—they are successfully attracting a new generation that values values as much as aesthetics.

Why it's critical to say what needs to be said — and listen when others do the same.Speak out, listen up — these are Megan Reitz's core pillars of workplace communication. According to her, healthy organizations are only possible when everyone can say what they think, and they know they'll be heard.Reitz is an academic and author whose work focuses on creating workplaces where all voices are heard and valued. Her latest book, Speak Out, Listen Up, explores the power dynamics that shape our communication at work and beyond. “Conversational habits define organizational success and our capacity to flourish,” she says. “Ethical conduct depends on what we're able to say and what we aren't, and whether we're heard or not. Innovation depends on our capacity to speak up, challenge, and disrupt, and whether that is heard or not. And of course, our engagement and our ability to perform depends on a feeling that our opinion is valued and that we're respected.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Reitz and host Matt Abrahams discuss how to create workplaces where every voice is heard. From her T.R.U.T.H. framework (trust, risk, understanding, titles, and how-to) to the pitfalls of communicational power dynamics, Reitz's insights reveal why healthy organizations are only possible when we all speak out and listen up.Episode Reference Links:Megan ReitzMegan's Book: Speak Out, Listen UpEp.132 Lean Into Failure: How to Make Mistakes That Work Ep.148 Conviction and Compassion: How to Have Hard Conversations 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 (02:21) - The TRUTH Framework (05:32) - Status, Titles, and Voice (09:21) - Power Traps For Leaders (14:06) - Mindful Leadership = Habit Change (18:35) - The Final Three Questions (25:46) - Conclusion ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.Strawberry.me.

Canada's healthcare system is under unprecedented strain, with thousands of people experiencing serious harm—or death—while waiting for diagnostic procedures, specialist care, or life-saving treatments. Despite public trust in the system, delays have become a hidden personal risk that most Canadians fail to plan for. As we age, delays in diagnosis and treatment don't just affect outcomes—they accelerate physical decline, cognitive stress, emotional exhaustion, and financial vulnerability. Loss of access means loss of control, which directly undermines resilience, independence, and healthspan.  Ingrid Gahsner approaches healthcare delays through the lens of risk management. Drawing on decades of client experience, she reframes access to care as a foundational planning issue—one that deserves the same attention as financial or retirement planning.You'll discover why healthcare delays must be treated as a real, quantifiable risk, what alternatives exist within Canada and internationally, and how healthcare access planning can reduce physical, emotional, and financial harm—without abandoning public healthcare values. Ingrid Gahsner is a licensed Canadian risk management consultant with over 30 years of experience in insurance, corporate benefits, and compliance.

In this podcast episode, Shannon Hill, Nissa Van Etten, and Jordan Fries interview Thomas Frazier about outcome measurement in behavioral intervention services. Using Frazier and colleagues' work on adaptive social communication measurement as a foundation, the discussion explores why many legacy assessments were not designed for the ABA context or for individuals with autism and developmental disabilities. The presenters distinguish between moment-to-moment ABA data collection and periodic outcome assessment, highlighting how periodic measures support long-term progress tracking, clinical decision-making, and accountability to funders. The episode emphasizes the complementary roles of norm-referenced and skill-based assessments, discusses constraints such as limited assessment authorizations, and underscores the importance of monitoring client and family quality of life.

Alcohol, Problem Drinking and Recovery Pathways - Navigating a Long Gap Between Counselling Training Levels In Episode 363 of the Counselling Tutor Podcast, your hosts Rory Lees-Oakes and Ken Kelly take us through this week's three topics: Firstly, in ‘Ethical, Sustainable Practice', we explore choosing the right online tech for counselling, highlighting how equipment and setup affect professionalism and therapeutic presence. Then in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Caroline Evers-Endacott about working with alcohol, problem drinking, and recovery pathways – emphasising how therapists can work ethically and effectively with clients navigating addiction. And finally, in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken offer guidance on how to manage long breaks between counselling training levels, including tips for maintaining motivation, skills, and learning during study gaps. Choosing the Right Online Tech [starts at 03:46 mins] This section discusses the importance of treating your online counselling setup with the same care as your in-person therapy room by choosing the right online tech. Clients form first impressions based on what they see and hear - tech choices impact the therapeutic relationship. A stable internet connection and good audio are essential foundations for online work. Simple improvements like wired internet, quality microphones, and appropriate camera framing can significantly improve the client experience. Consistency and professionalism in your online presence - including background, lighting, and audio - promote client trust and comfort. Being prepared for tech failures and using headphones for confidentiality are practical ways to uphold ethical standards. Alcohol, Problem Drinking and Recovery Pathways [starts at 32:38 mins] In this week's ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Caroline Evers-Endacott, an integrative therapist and addiction specialist, about supporting clients with alcohol use issues. Abstinence is not the only recovery outcome - therapy should support client-led goals and reduce harm. Initial assessments must include alcohol use patterns, severity, and risks - possibly involving GPs or specialists where needed. Clients may not disclose drinking concerns early - therapists should be prepared when such disclosures emerge later in the work. Counsellors can remain part of the recovery journey, even when referrals are made to specialist services. The stigma of addiction and cultural norms around alcohol can affect how clients perceive their drinking and seek help. Navigating a Long Gap Between Counselling Training Levels [starts at 58:30 mins] This segment addresses the reality of study breaks and how students can make the most of the time between qualification stages. Gaps between training levels are common and sometimes unavoidable - planning how to use the time constructively is key. Keeping up with theory through reading, podcasts, and online learning helps maintain momentum. Practising counselling skills in peer groups or volunteering roles keeps techniques sharp and relevant. Skills like active listening and empathy are valuable in everyday life - use them to stay engaged with your development. Preparing for interviews on advanced courses by showing ongoing engagement and learning can strengthen your application.

The Ethical, Time-Saving AI Framework Every Woman Entrepreneur Needs I'll be honest… I've had at least three separate panic spirals about whether using AI makes me less authentic. Turns out, I'm not the only one losing sleep over this. That's why I brought in AI expert Natalie MacNeil for a conversation about how women can use AI in a way that protects their voice, values, and integrity. In this episode, Natalie breaks down why so many women feel resistance around AI, and why that hesitation is actually a strength. We talk about the real benefits: getting your time back, having support through busy seasons, and scaling without burning out or hiring a massive team. Then we get tactical. Natalie walks through her frameworks for prompting, building an AI dream team, and using AI to handle productivity, creativity, and decision-making without losing the human parts of your business that matter most. HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE: 1️⃣ Using AI With Integrity Is a Leadership Skill – Women aren't anti-AI. They're pro-integrity. You get to decide what stays human, what you protect, and how AI supports you without replacing your voice, values, or creativity. 2️⃣ An AI Dream Team Gives You Your Time Back – When AI is set up intentionally, it can save hours every week, reduce decision fatigue, and support you like a full team would. That time can be reinvested into your zone of genius or your life outside work. 3️⃣ The 3 C's Framework Unlocks Better AI Results – Clarity, context, and cues are the foundation of effective prompting. When you give AI a clear role and goal, meaningful business context, and strong supporting cues, the output becomes dramatically more useful and aligned.

Frankenstein: Exploring Ethical Questions Across Mediums

Mary Shelley's Frankenstein continues to captivate audiences centuries after its publication, but not all adaptations emphasize the same ethical questions. Matthew and returning guest AK dive into both the original novel and Guillermo del Toro's recent film adaptation—not to catalog their differences, but to explore how each medium handles the story's core moral dilemmas and which approach proves more compelling.How Does the Film Emphasize “The Other” Differently?While both the book and film explore themes of parentage, responsibility, and scientific hubris, they emphasize different ethical questions. AK notes that the novel places stronger emphasis on the responsibilities of individuals in medicine and parenting, particularly through the lens of abandonment. The film, however, foregrounds questions about the grotesque other, the monstrous other, and how appearance shapes moral judgment. The visual decisions in del Toro's adaptation—juxtaposing the creature against beautiful backdrops that shift with emotional moments—underscore this emphasis.How Does the Shift from Abandonment to Abuse Change Victor's Responsibility?One of the most striking differences between the book and film lies in Victor Frankenstein's initial interaction with his creation. In Shelley's novel, Victor creates the monster, goes to bed, wakes up, and immediately flees—abandoning the creature with almost no interaction. Del Toro's film takes a dramatically different approach: Victor spends considerable time with the creature, engaging with it in ways impossible in the book. This changes the fundamental ethical question. Does Victor bear responsibility for abandonment and neglect, or for intentional, directed abuse? The film's choice to show an extended period of interaction—where Victor treats the creature as an object rather than a being—shifts the moral weight of his culpability.Why Does the Composite Body Matter More Now Than Ever?Victor's method of selecting “optimal” body parts from different corpses to create his creature resonates uncomfortably with contemporary debates about human enhancement and biotechnology. The discussion explores how Victor's approach—viewing the creature as an optimization project rather than a living being—connects to modern questions about CRISPR, genetic modification, and who decides what constitutes an “optimal” human body. These questions inevitably involve ableism and the commodification of bodies. The film's emphasis on Victor literally selecting bodies at prisons raises urgent parallels to current concerns: Who becomes test subjects for experimental procedures like Neuralink? Are they being viewed as humans or as subjects for experimentation?Other Topics Covered:Why the novel's nested narrative structure (stories within stories) creates a unique moral complexityHow both works explore humanity's relationship to nature, science, and the line between achievement and hubrisThe challenge of adapting works from different historical contexts when what counted as scientific hubris has radically changedThe concept of viewing people as player characters (with their own interiority) versus non-player characters (existing only to advance your plot)Why Frankenstein's relevance grows as biotechnology makes questions of life preservation more immediateThe conversation reveals how both Shelley's novel and del Toro's film use the Frankenstein story to explore timeless questions through different emphases—one focusing on neglect and parental failure, the other on abuse and the othering of those who don't meet conventional standards of beauty or normalcy. **************************************************************************This episode is a production of Superhero Ethics, a The Ethical Panda Podcast and part of the TruStory FM Entertainment Podcast Network.

If you've ever struggled with letting go of sentimental items after loss, I hope today's episode gives you both validation and encouragement. I talk with Krista St. Germain of the Widowed Moms Podcast, who lost her husband to a drunk driver, and we explore the emotional weight of decluttering a loved one's belongings. You'll hear: • mindset shifts around grief • what it means to let go in a way that "feels like love" • why there's no one-size-fits-all approach to releasing sentimental items This comforting conversation offers gentle guidance for decluttering when space is limited or when keeping certain items no longer feels supportive for your wellbeing.

About Patrick Van der Burght: Patrick van der Burght is an international expert in ethical persuasion, influence, and decision-making. He is a business partner of Dr. Robert Cialdini—author of Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion—and a founding member of the Cialdini Institute, the only active, licensed Cialdini Institute worldwide.A certified influence specialist and trainer across Australia and New Zealand, Patrick has spent over two decades teaching professionals how to persuade ethically, accelerate results, and build stronger relationships across sales, leadership, marketing, and team environments. He is also the co-author of How to Hear “Yes” More Often (2024) and host of the podcast Ethical Persuasion Unlocked.In this episode, Jennie and Patrick Van der Burght discuss:Why persuasion is not manipulation—and how ethical influence creates lasting behavior changeThe science of decision-making through Daniel Kahneman's System One and System Two thinkingWhy selling feels harder today as attention spans continue to shrinkHow logical arguments often fail to move people toward actionWhy Dr. Cialdini's principles of persuasion act as decision triggers rather than sales tactics Key Takeaways:Persuasion isn't about pushing—it's about prompting. The most powerful influence happens when people feel, “I chose this,” not “I was sold this.”Your brain's autopilot (System One) makes most decisions. If your message is 100% logic and data, it's speaking to the 5% that decides the least.Attention is today's scarcest resource. In a world of pings, pop-ups, and endless scroll, there's rarely enough focus left to run deep, analytical thinking.When sales conversations rely only on rational explanations, they often create indecision rather than clarity.Ethical persuasion activates the right mental shortcuts so people can decide faster, with confidence, and without regret.“I would argue that a lot of those no's aren't actually no's. They're indecision.” —  Patrick Van der Burght Connect with Patrick Van der Burght:LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/patrick-van-der-burghtFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/patrick.burght/ CONNECT WITH JENNIE:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/badassdirectsalesmasteryInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/badassdirectsalesmastery/Website: https://badassdirectsalesmastery.com/Show: https://badassdirectsalesmastery.com/blog/YouTube: COMING SOON!LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/badassdirectsalesmastery/Email: jennie@badassdirectsalesmastery.com  Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

Episode 1936: Jen Hayes challenges the polarizing debate around unpaid internships, spotlighting how privilege, not entitlement, often determines who can afford to work for free. She encourages a more nuanced conversation, urging society to address systemic inequities rather than shaming young professionals for seeking fair compensation. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.jenhayes.me/unpaid-internships-learning-opportunities-or-a-legal-form-of-slavery/ Quotes to ponder: "Someone who comes from a rich family can afford to be an intern. Students who grow up in poverty don't have this luxury." "Let's stop attacking each other and work together instead." "Unpaid internships do allow students and recent graduates to gain work experience which helps them get a 'foot in the door'."
