Sharing insights from her roles at High Down, Brixton, and Wormwood Scrubs, Natalie opens up about the realities and challenges of providing medical care in prison settings, ranging from understaffed healthcare teams to the daily pressures of emergency response and managing patients with complex needs. The conversation explores vital topics like staff-prisoner relationships, the impact of bureaucracy and double-documentation, working with older and vulnerable prisoners, and the emotional resilience required for this unique nursing role.   Listeners get a front-row seat to stories about advocating for the most forgotten populations, overcoming systemic barriers, and why compassionate, trauma-informed care is critical inside the justice system.

    In this episode of SaaS Fuel, host Jeff Mains welcomes back Jason Friedman—entrepreneur, author, and customer experience expert. Jason shares his journey from theater and rock-and-roll roadie to building billion-dollar brands, and reveals how the principles of stagecraft and storytelling can transform SaaS businesses.The conversation dives deep into the “Kinetic Customer Formula,” the importance of designing intentional customer journeys, and why focusing on relationships and retention is the key to sustainable SaaS growth. Jason also discusses his upcoming book, “Addicted to Strangers,” and offers actionable advice for founders looking to create raving fans and reduce churn.Key Takeaways[0:45] – The power of stagecraft: How Jason's theater background shaped his approach to customer experience.[5:20] – Choreographing the audience's journey is as important in business as it is in theater.[13:20] – The “Kinetic Customer Formula”: Attitudes + Behaviors, multiplied by Momentum Boosters, minus Friction = Radical Results.[22:00] – Retention over acquisition: Why focusing on existing customers yields a “quadratic return.”[27:30] – The danger of being “addicted to strangers” and neglecting your current audience.[32:00] – The importance of mapping not just the customer journey, but also employee and partner journeys.[36:00] – Storytelling is embedded in every step of the customer experience, not just a surface-level tactic.[41:00] – Churn is a silent killer: For every customer who complains, 21 remain silent.[48:00] – Community and relationships are the future of SaaS in an AI-driven world.Tweetable Quotes“People don't move in steps—they move in stories. If you want to move people, help them create the stories that move them in the direction you want.” — Jason Friedman“Everything you do is for the audience. In business, everything is for the customer—but we often focus more on business needs than customer needs.” — Jason Friedman“There's a quadratic return on making the people who already bought from us happy. They become the best marketing.” — Jason Friedman“If you increase the return on audience success, the return on ad spend goes up. It can't not.” — Jason Friedman“A raving fan can become a raving lunatic in an instant. There's a thin line between love and hate.” — Jason FriedmanSaaS Leadership LessonsDesign with Intention: Map out the customer journey as meticulously as a director plans a show. Start with the end in mind and reverse-engineer the experience.Empathy is Key: Get into character—understand your customer's mindset, motivations, and obstacles.Retention to Acquisition: Focus on delighting and retaining current customers rather than constantly chasing new ones.Measure What Matters: Don't just look at churn percentages—track the actual number of customers lost and understand why.Guest Resourcesjason@cxformula.comwww.radicalinc.comwww.cxformula.comhttps://media.jasonfriedman.meJason Friedman's Upcoming Book: Addicted to Strangers – Get a free ebook copy when it launchesLinkedIn: Jason FriedmanEpisode Sponsor

There's a module for that. Module name/project name: Token Browser Brief history How old: created in Nov 2025 by Andy Marquis (apmsooner) https://talkingdrupal.com/505 Versions available: 1.0.0 which works with Drupal core 11.3 or newer Maintainership Actively maintained Security coverage Test coverage Number of open issues: 2 open issues, 1 of which is a bug Usage stats: 3 sites Module features and usage The Token Browser module provides a rebuilt version of the standard token browser. Notably, it only renders the first level during the initial request, and then requests deeper levels as needed using all the latest HTMX improvements in Drupal core 11.3 It's worth noting that the initial version requires an alternative theme function be attached to form elements where you want to use the new Token Browser, so it doesn't actually replace the standard version Also, there seems to be an issue where the HTMX library doesn't load on cached pages, which is the one open issue. I pinged Andy about it and it sounds like he has a fix in the works. Finally, this module is similar to an older module called Fast Token Browser, but that module was never updated to work with versions of Drupal newer than 7, and relied on jQuery for its AJAX functionality

    This festive special flips the script on polished papers and perfect protocols. Dr Fiona McLean is joined by Dr Ian Harrison, Dr Soraya Meftah, and Dr Kate Harris to share the research moments that did not go to plan but taught them far more than success ever could. From ELISAs gone rogue and antibodies that refuse to behave, to admin systems that quietly derail months of planning, this episode is a reminder that real research is messy, unpredictable, and occasionally hilarious. The conversation moves easily between lab disasters, student supervision realities, near misses with fire, and the emotional rollercoaster of academic life. It is light hearted, reassuring, and (hopefully) relatable. A permission slip to laugh, reflect, and remember that being wrong is often part of doing good science. Merry Christmas from all of us! -- Top takeaways - Most experiments do not fail, they redirect - Unexpected results often open better research questions - Rushing protocols almost always backfires - Admin failures can be as stressful as lab failures - Talking openly about what went wrong saves time and money - Students learn more from troubleshooting than from perfect results - Publishing negative findings can help an entire field - Being wrong is built into the scientific method - Giving yourself time and mental space matters - If no one was hurt, it is probably recoverable A transcript of this show, links and show notes and profile on all our guests are available on our website at https://www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk -- Follow us on social media: https://www.instagram.com/dementia_researcher/ https://www.facebook.com/Dementia.Researcher/ https://www.twitter.com/demrescommunity https://www.linkedin.com/company/dementia-researcher https://www.bsky.app/profile/dementiare…archer.bsky.social -- Download and Register with our Community App: https://www.onelink.to/dementiaresearcher -- Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Research Fails 02:07 Learning from Mistakes in Research 04:53 Unexpected Outcomes and Their Value 05:53 The Importance of Data in Research 08:38 Navigating Challenges in Experiments 11:33 The Role of Collaboration in Research 14:40 Discovering New Avenues from Failures 15:40 The Importance of Literature in Research 16:41 Experiences of Discovery and Optimization in Research 17:51 Near-Death Experiences in the Lab 19:34 Lessons from Lab Mishaps 20:57 Administrative Chaos in Research 26:52 The Culture of Silence Around Research Failures 33:16 Navigating Criticism and Feedback in Academia 36:51 Navigating Experimental Challenges 38:43 The Temptation of Over-Experimenting 40:03 Learning from ELISA Mishaps

    Rick Davis, patient advocate and Founder of AnCan, is building and operating virtual peer-to-peer support groups to allow patients to connect with others who have direct experience with their condition.  These groups can provide accurate information, foster connections among participants, and serve as a check on medical misinformation. With the growing acceptance of virtual meetings, this approach overcomes geographic, physical, and psychosocial barriers that might otherwise prevent participants from attending on-site meetings. Rick explains, "The mission is to make each person and each patient a better advocate for themselves. That's really what we try to do, and we do that through empowering patients with peer knowledge. We introduce patients to other peers who have been through what these people are facing right now, not only patients, but also their care partners, and through their experience, we hope that these patients and care partners will become more expert in managing their own situation."   "In 2007, when I was first diagnosed with stage three cancer, I attended a physical meeting, and I realized that so many people cannot attend physical meetings because one, they may have a geographical disability, they may have a physical disability, or they may have a psychosocial disability. If we only allow people to exchange views when they're physically in front of each other, it's very limiting. And so I started to look and see what existed in terms of virtual communication. And back in the day, there was very, very little. And that was the motivation that got me started."  "People come into a group, and they hear things that they just wouldn't hear otherwise. And that's why it's so valuable. It's so incredibly valuable. I mean, we had a group last night where a guy came in facing a situation, and by total coincidence, there was somebody from his own city in there who knew the docs that he'd been dealing with, understood the frustration he'd been going through, had been through it himself, and shared his experience.

    Will Kennedy and Isiah Gray are members of Brothaz in the Foyer, a group that produces content to represent and share the experiences of Black members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. They are part of a larger group of hosts for the Brothaz in the Foyer Podcast, and their goal is to bring people “from the foyer into the chapel.” This conversation explores their personal journeys, the dynamics of race within the Church, and the importance of fostering understanding and inclusivity. Links YouTube: @brothazinthefoyer Instagram: @brothazinthefoyer TikTok: @brothazinthefoyer Paul Reeve books Transcript available with the video in the Zion Lab community Key Insights Experiences in the Temple: Will and Isiah share how their experiences as Black men in the temple often draw attention, highlighting the need for normalization of diverse representation within sacred spaces. Cultural Differences: The hosts discuss how their backgrounds influence their experiences in the Church, noting that cultural differences can lead to misunderstandings and the need for open dialogue. Reconciliation with Church History: Both emphasize the importance of understanding the Church’s history regarding race, including the priesthood ban, and how this knowledge can strengthen faith rather than diminish it. Empathy and Genuine Interaction: They stress the importance of treating all individuals as children of God and engaging in genuine conversations to bridge cultural gaps, rather than making interactions feel forced or awkward. Political Climate and Faith: The discussion touches on the politicization of race and the need for members to prioritize their faith and love for others over political affiliations, promoting unity within the Church. Leadership Applications Foster Open Dialogue: Leaders should create environments where members feel comfortable discussing sensitive topics related to race and culture, encouraging transparency and understanding. Educate on Church History: Leaders can benefit from familiarizing themselves with resources like Paul Reeve’s book on race in the priesthood to better address historical issues and foster inclusivity. Encourage Representation: Leaders should seek diverse voices in leadership roles and callings, recognizing that representation can enhance the community’s strength and unity, while also being mindful not to tokenize individuals based on race.

    What is the future of worship leading? How important are worship leaders and how will that role continue to develop in the future? No one really knows, but it's worth reflecting on. My guest today is Martha Munizzi – veteran gospel artist, songwriter, worship leader and co-pastor at epic life church in Orlando. This is an interesting conversation because Martha has the perspective of a worship leader and a pastor. We talk about the tension of excellent worship experiences as it relates to church growth and simple congregational worship where the voice of the people take center stage. Practical ways to do simple worship without losing excellence. We talk about the beauty of gospel music and where it's headed. How to empower young worship leaders and what the older generation can learn from them. We also hear the story of how Martha brilliantly forced her way onto my podcast. It's kind of hilarious. Topics Covered: How Martha got started in music Why Martha decided to write and pursue gospel music Why worship is so important How to empower younger worship leaders How to simplify worship in a production-heavy age The future of Gospel music The story behind Martha’s new project, “Church is Revival” Resources Mentioned: Show Sponsor: Planning Center Church is Revival by Martha Munizzi Epic Life Church Martha Munizzi website Show Sponsor: This episode is sponsored by Planning Center, an all-in-one church management software made to help churches help people. You can organize your ministries and keep everyone on your team communicating and aligned around what's going on. As a worship leader, good communication is key to building a strong worship team. You can cultivate relationships while ensuring everyone has what they need to successfully prep for your services. But why not take it up a notch using the chat feature? Built right into the Services mobile app—which, by the way, you should totally download if you haven't already—chat helps you coordinate all the service details with your team. Plus, you can have fun while doing it! No more juggling emails, group texts, and multiple apps to ensure your whole team is aligned.

The really cool part about chatting with your teams? Team members are dynamically added or removed from conversations as availability changes! So if your original bass player suddenly declines (why is it so hard to find a bass player, anyway?), your newly scheduled bass player is automatically added to the chat conversation. All of your chat conversations stay in sync. No more outdated group threads or irrelevant messages! So what are you waiting for? Download the Services app and start chatting!

    (Spirit Rock Meditation Center) We start with settling for about 8 minutes followed by about the same time with basic mindfulness practice. Then we explore "moderate" experiences of pleasant or unpleasant when they occur, whether a bodily experience, an emotion, or a thought (or a mix), experiencing pleasant or unpleasant and seeing whether there follows wanting (or not wanting) and reactivity (habitual grasping or pushing away). We close with some reflection on what we explored, with an emphasis on skillful aversion: Was some of the not wanting skillful? Unskillful? What do we find in some daily life examples of aversion? This exploration is related to the talk given a short time later.

    Dr. Martin Picard, PhD, is a professor of behavioral medicine at Columbia University and an expert on how our behaviors and psychology shape cellular energy production and rates of aging. He explains that your mitochondria don't just “make energy”; they translate what you do—your mindset and your relationships—into the energy you experience as vitality or lack thereof. He explains how exercise, nutrition, sleep, meditation, and even certain thought patterns and our sense of purpose can charge our cells like batteries. He also shares findings that hair greying is the result of cellular stress and is reversible.

    In this episode, Carla  shares her personal journey of self-discovery and the importance of embracing life's adventures, especially during the holiday season. She reflects on her recent trip to Denver, the significance of making memories with friends, and the lessons learned about living in the moment. Carla also discusses the challenges of motherhood, emphasizing the need for grace and presence over material gifts. The episode concludes with a deep dive into the biblical story of the Prodigal Son, exploring themes of grace, restoration, and the importance of returning to oneself.   TAKEAWAYS: Embrace life's adventures without waiting for the perfect moment. Your presence is more valuable to your children than material gifts. You don't need permission to change your life. Grace is more important than comparison or resentment. Start your journey of self-discovery whenever you feel ready. Memories with friends and family are what truly matter. Joy can be found in simple, inexpensive experiences. It's okay to feel lost; returning to yourself is a journey. Motherhood requires grace and understanding, both for yourself and your children. You can always return to your purpose, no matter how far you've strayed. CONNECT WITH US ON SOCIAL MEDIA: CARLA WILMARIS | DEX

    We're diving headfirst into the eerie and hilarious world of nannying and babysitting gone paranormal, inspired by the delightfully twisted Housemaid series. We share listener tales filled with demonic toddlers, haunted bedrooms, headless Barbies, phantom footsteps, and ghost kids who just want to play. Stories include: A babysitter overhears a three-year-old negotiating with someone named Lucifer—and he's not a fan of the sitter.  A nanny hears thumps from a blocked-off closet and unexplained lights, while the child acts unfazed by the ghostly chaos. An au pair hears heavy footsteps when no one's home, an uncle gets violently shaken on the couch, and a mother hears her child calling for her—even though they're miles away. A nanny sees a child sprint through the kitchen—even though the real child is elsewhere—and hears a voice whisper, “Wake him up!” If you thought your childhood babysitting gig was weird, wait until you hear what our listeners have survived.
