Our first-ever podcast guest, John Taft, returns nearly 100 episodes later. John is a Vice Chair of Baird. He was previously the CEO of RBC's U.S. wealth management business through the Great Financial Crisis, overseeing nearly 7,000 employees and almost $300 billion in assets. He chaired SIFMA, the leading securities industry trade association, and testified before Congress during the post-crisis reforms.John has spent more than 40 years in finance, but he didn't start there. He set out to be a newspaper journalist. Then, on a reporting assignment in Lowell, Massachusetts, he watched community leaders use the tools of finance to rebuild a burnt-out industrial city — and realized he didn't just want to write about that work; he wanted to do it.John wrote Stewardship: Lessons Learned from the Lost Culture of Wall Street, followed by A Force for Good: How Enlightened Finance Can Restore Faith in Capitalism. Today he's helping oversee $560B in assets, writes the blog Finance for the Greater Good, and is one of three founding members of the Scholars of Finance Advisory Board.In this episode, John returns to discuss what he's seen happen to the industry — and where it needs to go next. He and Ross dig into the financialization of the economy, the "disease of grandiosity" infecting leaders across sectors, and why financial services have grown larger than necessary to serve the real economy. They get to the productive heart of finance — what John calls "helping real people in the real world solve real problems and achieve real goals" — and the speculative noise crowding it out, from prediction markets and zero-day options to leveraged inverse ETFs and much of the digital asset ecosystem. They also explore AI's coming impact on capital allocation, the widening gap between rich and poor, and why John believes the next ten years will demand more stewardship from finance, not less.Meet John John Taft is a Vice Chair of Baird and a member of the firm's Executive Committee. Earlier in his career, he was a managing director at Piper, Jaffray & Hopwood; president and CEO of Voyageur Asset Management; president and CEO of Dougherty Summit Securities; and a consultant at Deloitte & Touche. He currently serves on the boards of Riverfront Investment Group, Octavus Group, Baird Trust, and Sagard.John holds a B.A. magna cum laude, Phi Beta Kappa, from Yale University, and a master's degree in public and private management from the Yale School of Organization and Management. He serves as Vice Chair of the Minneapolis Foundation, is an active member of the Itasca Project, and is an Executive in Residence at the Wake Forest University Center for the Study of Capitalism.He credits his family — including his great-grandfather, 27th U.S. President William Howard Taft — for instilling the core values that shape his definition of business success and his belief in the importance of treating every person with dignity.

AI Infrastructure in the Age of Sovereignty: Requirements, Strategies and a Trusted Framework for Digital Embassies is a report co-drafted with Bain & Company and published on 11 May, 2026.   This webinar explores how economies can pursue AI sovereignty along a spectrum of strategies, from trusted international partnerships to extensive domestic ownership, depending on their local capabilities. The discussion examines why choices around compute, connectivity and data storage are increasingly central to long-term resilience and AI competitiveness.  A core focus is what these choices look like in practice: how different approaches along the spectrum can be translated into credible strategies, what shared infrastructure arrangements require, and how digital embassies can serve as an option for extending sovereign AI infrastructure beyond national borders.  This is the full audio from a webinar recorded on 12 May, 2026.

#418 In this podcast episode, Guy talked with Robert about lucid dreaming, how it differs from out-of-body experiences, and why dreams matter given how much time people spend dreaming over a lifetime. Robert shared his first spontaneous lucid dream, how he learned to induce lucid dreams using suggestion and hand-focused intention, and how to stabilize lucidity by staying calm and reaffirming awareness. They discussed the potential of lucid dreaming for personal growth, including how beliefs and expectations shape dream outcomes and can be applied to waking life through "lucid living," with Robert describing reduced hay fever symptoms through mindful thought changes.  Robert and Guy explored reports of physical and emotional healing in lucid dreams, including examples involving GERD, plantar warts, menstrual bleeding, and trauma-related nightmares. Robert described experiences suggesting an "inner self" behind dreams, occasional precognitive elements, communication with his cat, and techniques for navigating dream environments, and he recommended his books and websites for learning more. About Robert: Robert Waggoner wrote the acclaimed book, Lucid Dreaming – Gateway to the Inner Self (now in its sixteenth printing), and co-authored Lucid Dreaming Plain and Simple with Caroline McCready. Both books are in Audible, Kindle and CD/Mp3. His books have been translated into French, German, Chinese, Korean, Czech, Finnish and other languages.  A past President of the International Association for the Study of Dreams (IASD), Waggoner currently serves on the Executive Committee. For twenty years, he continues to serve as co-editor of the online magazine, The Lucid Dreaming Experience, (ISSN 2167-616X); the only ongoing publication devoted specifically to lucid dreaming. Recently, he helped found the non-profit Lucid Dreaming Foundation to spread the practice, research and beneficial use of lucid dreaming.. A lucid dreamer since 1975, he has logged more than 1,000 lucid dreams. Key Points Discussed:  (00:00) - How to Use Lucid Dreams for Deep Healing and Self‑Discovery!

Today, I have the pleasure of speaking with Dan Spector, partner at Hanson Bridgett, an Am Law 200 California-based law firm and the first law firm recognized as a certified B Corp. Dan is a trial lawyer, mediator, and arbitrator whose practice focuses on trust, probate and complex civil cases involving families. He has been named in multiple years as a Super Lawyer by his peers for Northern California in the area of Trust and Estate Litigation and a statewide mediation and private neutral panelist for Judicate West, a professional neutral company with offices throughout California. Dan is a member of the California Lawyer's Association's (CLA) Trust and Estates Section and Litigation Section, as well as the Sacramento County Bar Association's Probate, Trust and Estate Planning Section. He has recently been selected to serve on the Executive Committee for CLA's Trust and Estate Section (TEXCOM), for which he participates in various subcommittees, including the Litigation, Incapacity and Legislation subcommittees. He also serves as a Judge Pro-Tem in the Sacramento Superior Court and has been named as an expert witness on issues relating to trust, probate, and litigation matters. Dan has lectured at U.C. Davis before the Sacramento County Bar Association, CCLSA and the California Society of Certified Public Accountants on the topics of civil litigation and trust and probate litigation. He has served on numerous non-profit boards throughout Sacramento, including as Chair of the Boys and Girls Club of Greater Sacramento, board member of the San Juan Unified School District Superintendent's Advisory Board, board member of the St. Ignatius School Advisory Board, board member of the Anthony M. Kennedy Learning Center, and Chairman of the Board of Del Paso Country Club. Dan served as General Chairman of the 2015 United States Senior Open Golf Championship, the single largest sporting event in Sacramento's history. Dan and his firm Hanson Bridgett are values advisor members of FOX, and we are thrilled to have their expertise within our membership community. We've talked about conflict on this podcast before, but today we'll learn more about Dan's area of expertise – "active conflict". Dan explains for our listeners how active conflict is defined and how it is manifested in both pre-litigation and litigation situations. Families are complex, and family dynamics and the emotional undercurrents that run through the relationships among family members present a unique challenge for both clients and professionals in our field. Dan shares his experience on how families get to the active conflict stage, and he describes the common pathways and the ways family members and their family offices can recognize them. In many cases, significant changes – and resulting conflicts – within a family are triggered by the death of a key family principal. So, one practical consideration is to distinguish between pre-mortem and post-mortem conflict situations. Dan talks about the main differences between family conflicts that take place before vs. after a major death in the family. Active conflict can be very painful for families. Dan provides an outline of the options available to families for managing and resolving active conflict, including the different professional channels and techniques they can resort to. Don't miss this illuminating conversation with a leading expert and practitioner in the field of family conflict management and resolution.

The Power of Mentorship and Support: Paige Zandri's Approach to Building a Law Firm

Her Success Story

This week, Ivy Slater, host of Her Success Story, chats with her guest, Paige Zandri. The two talk about Paige's unconventional journey from tax law to family law, the founding and growth of Artese Zandri PLLC, a firm dedicated to handling highly contested divorces and agreements with a focus on personal connection, and the critical role of mentorship, professional networks, and values-driven teamwork in building a thriving legal practice. In this episode, we discuss: How Paige's career took a sharp turn from tax law to family law after law school, when she realized she wanted a more direct connection with clients than tax consulting at Deloitte could give her, and her parents' early instincts turned out to be surprisingly right. What gave her the courage to leave Deloitte, go solo, and start from scratch by cold-emailing Brooklyn Law alumni, finding one solo-practitioner mentor, and trading support services and court help for real-world training and income. Why she knew solo practice wouldn't be the endgame: she wanted a team, realized she wasn't a litigator and didn't want to become one, and partnered with a former law school friend and courtroom attorney to create a complementary business and life partnership. How the firm evolved from solo work into a growing boutique practice, and why building the right team culture has been one of the hardest and most important parts of leadership, especially when your goal is to run the firm like a family, with warmth, boundaries, and accountability. Why she believes leadership in a group like Women Owned Law matters: the organization has become a place where ideas are welcomed, collaboration is real, and the "scaffolding" of a shared mission is visibly taking shape over time. Paige Zandri is a founding partner at Artese Zandri PLLC and is the firm's lead mediator. Paige handles highly contested divorces, prenuptial and postnuptial agreements. Paige brings to the firm her experience as a tax consultant for high-net-worth individuals before shifting her focus to representing clients in matrimonial and family law matters. Having represented clients both in and out of court for over a decade, Paige's ability to de-escalate and find creative solutions to resolving conflict underlines her approach to client service. Paige is trained and certified as a divorce mediator to help clients resolve the nuanced aspects of complex issues, including the division of property, calculation of spousal support, custody and support of children, and more. Paige's tax background is particularly useful for clients who hold sophisticated assets with varying tax consequences that impact their value in a negotiated property settlement. Paige also has extensive experience drafting and negotiating prenuptial, postnuptial and divorce settlement agreements. Paige approaches every client and every issue with personalized attention, compassion, and diligence.

Each client should walk through this experience knowing that I have done everything I can to listen, understand, and protect them.  Personal Philosophy:  At the risk of sounding "eat-pray-lovey"...My personal philosophies are simple: keep your mind and body active, be kind, find the humor, and eat and sleep well. Hobbies: Athletics and outdoor adventures, fancy charcuterie boards, and making people laugh.  What I love most: The right song at the right moment.  Top Memorable Moment: Father-daughter dances.

317: From Consultant to CEO: How Real Leaders Scale Companies with Natalie De Fazio

The Business of Meetings

We are delighted to welcome Natalie De Fazio, Founder and CEO of Pinnacle Live, as today's guest. Natalie is a seasoned entrepreneur with a strong background in leadership and consulting, including roles at consulting firms such as KPMG. Over the years, she has collaborated with many leading names in AV production within the meetings and events industry and is now focused on building and growing her new brand. Stay tuned to hear Natalie's story and the insights she shares today. Natalie's Journey Natalie began her career in consulting after studying business and economics, working across multiple industries and building expertise in strategy, analysis, and leadership. After working at several firms, including KPMG, she became an independent consultant and soon realized the value of bringing a fresh perspective to organizations. Her work with Freeman introduced her to the events space, where she fell in love with the people and the experiences they offered. She went on to co-found Pinnacle Live in 2021. A Customized Experience Pinnacle Live was created to fill a gap in the audiovisual services space within hotels. They focus on delivering a more customized, higher-touch experience rather than trying to be everything to everyone. This positioning enables the company to serve venues that require a more customized solution, while maintaining a strong emphasis on relationships, service quality, and consistency. An Outside Perspective Pinnacle Live's key advantage comes from not being originally rooted in the events space. Questioning "why" and challenging the way things have always been done opens the door to new ways of thinking. Bringing in ideas from other industries helps avoid an echo chamber and encourages innovation, curiosity, and solutions more closely aligned with customer needs. Innovation Natalie believes that innovation is about trying new things that actually drive value, rather than simply changing for the sake of change. Creating a culture where people are willing to try and fail fast opens the door to better ideas. Maintaining a smaller-company feel while growing allows every voice to be heard and ideas to flow freely, regardless of role or title. Data Data highlights trends, indicators, and direction, but it does not tell the whole story. Combining data with anecdotes and opinions creates a far more complete picture. Clear KPIs across leadership, regular review, and accountability ensure alignment, while avoiding overreaction to short-term fluctuations. Transparency A high level of transparency around financials, performance, and goals helps employees understand the bigger picture and their role within it. Sharing both positive and bad results builds trust, encourages ownership, and creates a more engaged workforce. Natalie applies the same transparent philosophy to her customers. Hiring For Natalie, recruiting is about more than competencies and professional experience. She looks for people who believe in the vision, feel fulfilled by the work, and are excited to be part of building something. It has to be a match because even highly capable people won't perform at their best if they're not genuinely invested in the role and the company's direction. Creating Experiences Events are no longer just about sitting in a room and watching presentations. People want immersion and a sense of belonging. The role of an AV and production partner is to understand the objectives and bring creative ideas to life through sound, light, and visuals, creating a feeling and environment that delivers on those goals. Trust Establishing trust is paramount for Natalie. Communication, proactive planning, and reliability are essential for delivering a seamless experience. The best feedback comes from being easy to work with, dependable, and consistently delivering on expectations, driven entirely by people who are both passionate and well-trained. AI Natalie feels that AI saves time and removes manual work. That gives teams more time to focus on more valuable work, such as working with customers,  innovating, and developing better experiences. However, human input remains essential to ensure it is thoughtful, strategic, and correct. In-Person Experiences Still Matter Natalie believes that people still want to connect, collaborate, and share their experiences. Virtual and hybrid events have their place, but they are not quite the same. When people come together, their experience must feel intentional and immersive, and be something they are part of rather than just watching. Maintaining Quality While Scaling Natalie wants to ensure that Pinnacle Live continues to deliver high-touch services, tailored solutions, and real relationships. For her, that means constantly asking how to improve the experience and making sure her team fully understands the required standard. Looking Ahead Natalie wants Pinnacle Live to continue delivering consistently for clients and continue building strong relationships with hotel partners. She also sees growth in the broader production space, expanding beyond hotels into more complex production work. Her goal is to continue building the business while staying true to its founding goals. BIO: Natalie De Fazio Natalie De Fazio is the Chief Executive Officer of Pinnacle Live, a leading provider of premium event technology and production services. A seasoned executive with more than 20 years of experience in strategy consulting, operations, and corporate leadership, Natalie specializes in transforming organizations, building high-performing teams, and driving sustainable growth. Before becoming CEO, Natalie served as Founding President of Pinnacle Live, where she played a central role in shaping the company's strategic direction, expanding capabilities, and strengthening its people-first culture. Prior to founding Pinnacle Live, she served as Vice President of Corporate Strategy at Freeman Company and was a member of the Executive Committee at Encore Event Technologies. Earlier in her career, Natalie held leadership and consulting roles at KPMG, Stax Inc., Aon Hewitt, and Accretive Health, and founded her own consulting firm, NMD Strategy. Known for her pragmatic, data-informed leadership style and passion for innovation, Natalie is committed to elevating live event experiences and advancing an industry built on meaningful human connection.

How can you find your spotlight in a competitive industry?   In this episode of Women of Color Rise, I speak with Christina Selby—Vice President of Production and Touring at Nederlander Producing Company of America, Adjunct Professor at Columbia University, and a leading voice on the Broadway League's Executive Committee.   A first-generation Honduran-Haitian American and lifelong New Yorker, Christina's path wasn't scripted from the start. She spent years planning to be a pediatrician until a "hard look" in college led her to choose joy over expectations. From her first week out of college to becoming a high-level executive, she has navigated the world of Broadway with grace and infectious optimism.   She shares lessons for rising leaders: •Identify your joy. Don't just stumble into it; actively carve out time for what makes you happy. It's the fuel for your resilience. •Find the silver lining. Even in the darkest chapters, look for the light. Perspective is the only thing you can truly control. •Master the art of timing. Success isn't just about the "what," it's about the "when." Read the room and wait for the right headspace before making your big move. •Start where you are. You don't need $20 million to be a producer (or a leader). Gather your peers, book a room, and just start. •Learn to say "No" with grace. Setting boundaries early is essential for long-term success and self-care.   Christina's story is a beautiful reminder that when we stand in our identity and lead with joy, we can open doors for ourselves and the next generation.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://analizawolf.com/episode-121-master-timing-in-leadership-with-christina-selby

What if the thing that makes you most effective as a leader and speaker… isn't perfection, but authenticity? That it's not about having all the answers, but being willing to tell others that you don't have all the answers?My guest is Judith Smelser, President and GM of Central Florida Public Media, and she shares her journey from journalist to leading a major public media organization and what she's learned about using her voice along the way.We explore why local journalism matters more than ever, how the stories we tell shape our communities, and the responsibility of amplifying voices that often go unheard.But what I especially loved about this conversation is Judith's perspective on authenticity over perfectionism—and how letting go of needing to have all the answers has made her a stronger, more effective leader.We also talk about imposter syndrome (yes, it still shows up—even at the highest levels) and why the real growth comes from stepping in before you feel 100% ready.If you've ever held yourself back because you thought you needed to be more polished, more certain, or more “ready”—this episode is your reminder that your voice matters now.Judith and I talk about:Why local journalism is a public goodHow stories shape communities and decisionsFinding your voice as a leader and spokespersonAuthenticity vs. perfection in speakingA real talk on imposter syndromeAbout My Guest: Judith Smelser is president and general manager of Central Florida Public Media, previously named WMFE, the only local nonprofit news organization serving the nine-county Central Florida region.

The climate crisis is not only a technological or policy challenge — it is also a crisis of worldview. In this powerful conversation, Corinna Bellizzi speaks with Osprey Orielle Lake, founder and executive director of the Women's Earth and Climate Action Network (WECAN), about how climate justice movements around the world are working to transform our relationship with nature, power, and community. Osprey's work bridges grassroots activism, Indigenous leadership, international climate negotiations, and legal innovations like the Rights of Nature movement. Drawing from her book The Story Is in Our Bones: How Worldviews and Climate Justice Can Remake a World in Crisis, she explores how systems like colonization, extractive economics, and patriarchy have shaped today's ecological crises — and how new stories rooted in reciprocity, justice, and stewardship can guide the path forward. This conversation explores the role of Indigenous knowledge in climate solutions, the fight against fossil fuel expansion, the growing global push for legal protections for ecosystems, and the importance of community-led restoration efforts around the world. Originally recorded in 2024, this episode remains deeply relevant today as movements for climate justice, land stewardship, and ecological restoration continue to gain momentum globally.

Dr. Carla Finkielstein is an Associate Professor of Biological Sciences within the Biocomplexity Institute of Virginia Tech. She is also Director of the Integrated Cellular Response Laboratory at Virginia Tech, a Member of the Executive Committee of the Susan G. Komen Blue Ridge Board, and past member of the Board of Directors of the Virginia Breast Cancer Foundation. Carla is interested in understanding the mechanisms cells use to measure time to regulate cell division. She hypothesizes that cancer may occur when the clocks within cells signal to the cell to divide too frequently. Carla's goal is to understand how this process occurs so that we can fix the issue, detect the problem early to provide treatment, or prevent it from happening. Outside of science, Carla's favorite hobby is cooking. She loves making new and creative dishes that bring together different colors, flavors, and taste profiles. Cooking is relaxing for her, and it's fun to share dishes she creates with her friends and family. In addition, Carla enjoys reading a wide variety of books about history. Carla received her B.S. and Ph.D. both in Molecular Biology from the University of Buenos Aires in Argentina. Afterwards, she worked as a Research Associate at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center. Carla then conducted further postdoctoral research at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center before joining the faculty at Virginia Tech. Carla has been recognized for her research accomplishments with the L. Chely Award for Best PhD Thesis, a Howard Hughes Institute Fellowship for Research, an American Heart Association Postdoctoral Fellowship, the Karin Noss Scholarship for Research Advocacy in Breast Cancer, the Susan G.

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) is taking the world by storm, promising to enhance efficiency and revolutionize business. Corporations are embracing the technology, with AI market size expected to reach $1 trillion by 2030. But companies that deploy AI for their operations are confronting risks involving litigation, privacy, and ethics. And regulators are struggling to keep pace with its rapid deployment, leading some to fear AI is out of control — that it could spawn a surveillance state and render portions of the workforce obsolete.  How can businesses best employ AI efficiently? What are its superpowers — and potential perils? And what's in store for the future of AI technology?Join The Sidley Podcast host and Sidley partner, Sam Gandhi, as he speaks with one of the firm's thought leaders on these issues — Dave Gordon, a member of the firm's Executive Committee, the co-leader of the firm's Commercial Litigation and Disputes practice, the head of the Litigation group in the firm's Chicago office, and the co-chair of the firm's Artificial Intelligence Council. Together, they discuss who is using AI and why, the risks and best practices to deployment, and what to expect in the ever-changing legal and regulatory landscape.

Building a successful sales career isn't just about hitting quotas—it's about intentional career planning, fostering creativity, and creating environments where talent can flourish. Too many organizations focus solely on product training while neglecting the human element that drives revenue growth. In this conversation with Edward Allen, Chief Revenue Officer at Measurabl, we explore how strategic career development and creative thinking can transform both individual trajectories and organizational performance. Edward shares insights from his 30-year journey through financial services and technology, revealing how simple yet structured approaches to talent development can reduce attrition and accelerate growth.          The Power of Structured Career Conversations Edward discusses his quarterly career development framework—a departure from traditional annual reviews that often come too late. These conversations focus on understanding what employees truly want to do, what they don't enjoy, and exploring possibilities they may not even know exist within the organization. Creating Roles That Don't Exist One of the most compelling aspects of our discussion centers on encouraging team members to pitch entirely new roles. Edward shares his own experience of giving up a $400 million book of business to create a new position that ultimately quadrupled revenue for underperforming divisions. Revenue Hackathons and Cross-Functional Innovation We explore how bringing together diverse perspectives—from finance to legal to frontline sales reps—can solve complex business challenges in unexpected ways. Edward explains how cognitive diversity becomes an accelerant for innovation when you create the right forum for ideas to emerge. Here's what you can expect to gain from this episode: ·        A framework for conducting meaningful quarterly career development conversations that reduce surprise departures ·        Strategies for identifying and developing hidden internal talent through cross-functional moves ·        Methods for ensuring junior team members' voices are heard and valued in revenue planning ·        The importance of portable skills training that benefits both current performance and future career growth ·        How to structure feedback systems that encourage innovation from the bottom up Edward's approach challenges conventional hierarchical thinking and demonstrates how investing in people development directly correlates to revenue outcomes. Whether you're managing a small team or leading a large organization, these principles can help you build a culture where creativity thrives and careers flourish. Key Moments of This Episode 00:00:52 - Introduction to Edward Allen and Measurabl Mario introduces Edward Allen, Chief Revenue Officer of Measurabl, a sustainability data and technology company. Edward shares his 30-year career journey from Goldman Sachs to leading revenue teams, highlighting his transition from financial services to fintech and his current role at Measurabl. 00:04:23 - From Acting Dreams to Sales Success Edward reveals his unexpected career path, sharing how he initially pursued acting at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts before pivoting to Goldman Sachs. This personal story demonstrates the importance of taking risks and finding your true calling in professional development. 00:06:48 - Building Structured Career Development Systems Edward discusses implementing quarterly career development conversations with direct reports, moving beyond traditional annual reviews. He emphasizes asking "how do you like your job?" and creating formal processes to understand employee aspirations and reduce regrettable attrition. 00:14:00 - Investing in Portable Skills Training The conversation shifts to training philosophy, with Edward advocating for soft skills development over product training. He shares examples of negotiation training, social psychology, and certification programs that employees can take anywhere, creating value for both current and future roles. 00:20:35 - Creating Accountability for Career Development Edward explains how to systematize career development through metrics and KPIs, including personal development goals, manager scorecards, and tracking regrettable attrition. He emphasizes making career growth visible and celebrated within the organization to drive engagement and retention. 00:32:22 - Unlocking Hidden Internal Talent Discussion focuses on cross-functional moves and international opportunities. Edward advocates for 60-day internal job postings before external searches, sharing examples of unexpected internal candidates who became successful in new roles across different geographies and functions. 00:35:58 - Running Revenue Hackathons for Innovation Edward explains the concept of revenue hackathons, bringing together diverse teams including finance, legal, and sales operations to solve business challenges. He shares a success story of creating email-based contracting for Fortune 100 clients through collaborative innovation. 00:39:25 - Amplifying Junior Voices in Sales Culture The discussion covers strategies for ensuring junior employees' ideas are heard, including reverse-order meetings (starting with junior staff), documenting all feedback, and providing follow-up on suggestions. Edward emphasizes the importance of recognition and creating safe spaces for innovation. 00:54:23 - Contact Information and Closing Edward provides his contact details, and the hosts wrap up with his favorite movie recommendation.

  This week on The Hamilton Review Podcast, we're pleased to welcome pediatrician Dr. Cori Cross. In this episode, Dr. Cross explores the impact of social media on children and offers practical guidance for parents navigating today's complex digital landscape. Drawing from her Peds in Review article, "The Complicated Reality of Social Media," Dr. Cross joins Dr. Bob for a thoughtful discussion that takes a deeper look at the challenges and opportunities social media presents for families. We hope you enjoy this important and timely conversation.   Cori Cross is a board-certified pediatrician and has been serving the LA community since her residency at Children's Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA) in 2004. Dr. Cross graduated cum laude from Barnard College with a BA in philosophy.

After years on the interviewee side of things, Dr. Cross can now be heard hosting peer-to-peer medical podcasts for RadioMD.
