China's AI Strategy and Chip Self-Sufficiency Guest: Jack Burnham Jack Burnham discussed China's AI development, which prioritizes political control and self-sufficiency over immediate excellence, evidenced by the Chinese Cyberspace Administration banning large internet companies from purchasing high-end Nvidia processors, with the CCP aiming to build out its own domestic systems to insulate itself from potential U.S. leverage, while the Chinese DeepSeek AI model is considered a "good enough" open-source competitor due to its low cost, accessibility, and high quality in certain computations, despite some identified security issues. 1900

That was episode 491. So, welcome to this deep cut episode with Olivia Ross from way back, pre-pandemic times. This episode of Relentless Health Value revisits the concept of directly contracted high value networks or Centers of Excellence (ECEN) with Olivia Ross. The discussion explores the impact and potential of the ECEN network, emphasizing the importance of quality, price transparency, and multidisciplinary approaches in healthcare.  Olivia delves into the reasons why ECEN was significant in past PBGH projects and its current relevance, despite its eventual dismantling due to corporate changes.

Additionally, it covers the rigorous process of selecting Centers of Excellence and how continuous quality improvement efforts benefit both employers and healthcare providers. === LINKS ===

Episode #434: “I don't see how there could be a new social contract for a post-war, post-conflict Myanmar.” With this stark observation, Henning Glaser sets the tone for his analysis of the country's turmoil. Glaser is a German legal scholar based at Thammasat University in Bangkok, where he co-founded the German-Southeast Asian Center of Excellence for Public Policy and Good Governance. His work spans Asia, but Myanmar has become one of his deepest commitments. Since the early 2010s, he has organized dialogues and seminars on the country's political transition, and after the 2021 coup, his institute shifted to documenting and analyzing the descent into conflict. Glaser describes the future in bleak terms. The junta shows no sign of collapse, while the opposition remains fragmented. Ethnic armed groups pursue divergent roadmaps, preventing unity around a federal constitution. Glaser admires the energy of younger activists and local governance experiments, yet doubts these can form a coherent national framework. He cites Kurdistan in Iraq as a warning: local stability without broader resolution. Geopolitics, he stresses, makes matters worse. “It is inevitable that a primary focus on geopolitics is creating tension and border conflicts and wars. We see that everywhere,” he says. Myanmar, he argues, is reduced to a pawn in a larger contest between China, Russia, India, and an increasingly disengaged West. The result is proxy struggles that entrench the conflict. Organized crime further compounds the chaos. Scam centers, narcotics, arms smuggling, and trafficking create a criminal economy that fuels the war. “If you have this involvement of organized crime and an organized criminal economy, then you can sustain that for a very, very long time. And that is also why a long stalemate,” he warns. Glaser dismisses upcoming elections as hollow and recalls Myanmar's earlier transition as a “democratic façade with a military heart.” Despite his dark assessment, he ends by saluting the resilience of activists and diaspora communities, whose determination to master law and policy remains, in his view, remarkable. “I totally admire all the young people, middle-aged people, and older people in the diaspora who put incredible efforts to keep up and to gain legal knowledge, to draft laws, to understand how to translate policies into law, how to interpret laws. That is remarkable.”

Jake shares the intense journey of building his Foundations of Excellence program, centering on a wild story about debugging code at 4:30 AM, that led to a breakthrough "fever dream" about invisible architectures in both programming and horsemanship.⁠Get Foundations Of Excellence Here⁠After spending hundreds of hours fixing a $2 billion ed-tech company's broken "premium" software, Jake discovered that horse training problems often mirror coding problems: both involve hidden structures and legacy "spaghetti code" that sabotages progress. He explains how bad training ideas create mental architecture that actively fights against learning, using a real example of a dressage student who couldn't grasp the concept of allowing horses to make mistakes as teaching opportunities.The episode dives deep into diagnostic horsemanship; the ability to see the load-bearing structures that are often hidden from view, understand first principles of how horses think and respond, and escape the "intermediate no man's land" where most riders get stuck fighting invisible problems they don't understand.Jake announces the official launch of Foundations of Excellence, available as a self-guided online course ($499 through Black Friday) or as a 15-week cohort with weekly personal coaching calls. He explains why this program represents "the next era of horsemanship", moving beyond the obsolete clinic model to create a more effective path to mastery.Get Foundations Of Excellence HereKey topics: Mental models in horsemanship, debugging belief systems, the architecture of learning, why protecting horses from mistakes creates dependent riders, and how to become your own trainer by understanding the hidden patterns that control everything in horse training.

This is a very special crossover episode airing on both the Everything Made Beautiful podcast and Masi Willis's Lead Like You Mean It podcast. Masi is one of my longest friends (we're talking almost 30 years), and this conversation is one of my favorites.As we head into Thanksgiving, we knew we wanted to talk about gratitude, but not in the superficial way our culture often does during November. Instead, we get honest about what it looks like to practice gratitude when the holidays bring as much pain as they do promise. We talk about the gaps... the empty chairs, the relationships that aren't what we hoped, the seasons that feel more heavy than celebratory.Masi and I both share vulnerably about our own Thanksgiving realities this year, the grief we're carrying, and how we're choosing gratitude as a daily formation rather than a seasonal performance. We also dig into how leadership coaching has transformed both of our lives, helping us know ourselves and lead ourselves well before we can truly lead others.If you're walking into this season with a full heart or a broken one, or both at the same time, this conversation is for you. Pain and promise can coexist, and they don't have to be hopeless.Chapters00:00 | Introduction to the Crossover Episode05:20 | Navigating Emptiness During the Holidays09:08 | The Role of Faith in Gratitude12:32 | Coexisting Pain and Promise16:51 | Entitlement and Gratitude in Life20:27 | The Importance of Care in Communication24:51 | Celebration as a Communication Code28:38 | The Importance of Celebration and Affirmation32:28 | Hope and Purpose in Daily Life34:51 | Influential Leaders and Their Impact36:37 | Excellence in Leadership37:37 | The Role of Mentorship39:53 | Wisdom in Decision Making42:36 | The Power of Feedback and Affirmation43:58 | Embracing Authenticity in Leadership45:24 | Navigating Triggers and Personal Growth47:20 | The Ongoing Journey of Self-Improvement49:38 | The Role of Coaching in Personal Development52:57 | Gratitude and Vulnerability in Relationships54:50 | Finding Peace Amidst Life's ChallengesMasi's Website: https://www.masiwillis.com/The Lead Like You Mean It Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/lead-like-you-mean-it-with-masi-willis/id1826446460Masi On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/masiwillis/

In today's episode, Josh Hillis joins us again for a practical and refreshingly honest conversation about skill-building, emotional eating, perfectionism, and the messy, human reality of behavior change. We dive into what it really means to practice eating skills, why the checkbox is the practice, not the outcome, and how the pursuit of excellence looks a whole lot more like peaceful striving than perfection. Josh breaks down the “training-wheels” approach that helps people build confidence slowly, intentionally, and compassionately, instead of swinging between rigid control and all-or-nothing chaos.You'll hear us talk about emotional eating without shame, how to navigate food without relying on strict diet rules, and why the most meaningful changes happen when you stop waiting to “feel ready” and instead get in the game: fumble around, learn, adjust, and keep going. If you're someone who's been stuck in the cycle of trying, “failing,” quitting, and starting over…this episode is the permission slip and the roadmap you've been searching for.“The checkbox is the practice, not the outcome. The outcome comes later.”- Josh Hillis“The number one predictor of eating-behavior change is willingness to feel..”- Josh HillisThis week on Here's the Deal:Why practicing skills (not accomplishing them) is the real path to sustainable eating behavior change.How pausing before eating builds agency and separates wanting from choosing.Why emotional eating can be intentional, values-aligned, and not something to fear.A training-wheels approach to navigating “trigger foods” without overwhelm or blowouts.How perfectionism leads to more quitting, not better resultsWhat pursuit of excellence actually looks like.Why “easy practice” matters more than tackling the hardest food in the hardest situation.How tracking something (skills, not just calories) helps maintain structure without slipping into diet culture.Why the magic happens when you allow yourself to learn, fumble, and layer skills over time—with patience and compassion.Connect with Josh Hillis:Cravings, Emotionally Flexibility, and Your Goals with Josh HillisJosh Hillis on InstagramJosh Hillis WebsiteEating Skills Class: Three Foundational SkillsFat Loss Happens on a Monday BookLean and Strong BookThanks for tuning in to this week's episode of Here's the Deal: Fitness, Nutrition, and Mindset for People Who Don't Want Life to Suck, where we challenge the common understanding of what it means and what it takes to be fit and healthy!

Talent acquisition is being tested like never before. Teams are continually being asked to do more with less, hiring volumes remain unpredictable, and technology is evolving faster than organizations can adapt. AI promises transformation but often delivers confusion, with some vendors labeling simple automation as intelligence, while, at the same time, genuinely disruptive AI capabilities are emerging that could reshape everything we do. Meanwhile, the fundamentals haven't changed. TA leaders still need to deliver the right people at the right time in a cost-effective way. But how do you build that capability when the ground keeps shifting? How do you create structure, repeatability, and continuous improvement during constant disruption? My guests this week are Tony De Graaf and Marcel Rütten, co-founders of the Recruiting Excellence Foundation. In our conversation, they share their framework for building high-performing TA teams and explain how to pursue recruiting excellence even in fast-moving, uncertain times. Also listen out for details on how you take part in the forthcoming Global State of TA Report, and by getting your own free maturity assessment.
