Episode 279 of The Business Development Podcast, The 10 Unspoken Laws of Trust, dives deep into the unseen foundation behind every successful relationship, deal, and opportunity: trust. Kelly explores how trust shapes human behavior, why it's not automatic despite being essential to society, and the ten unspoken laws that quietly govern how we build and maintain it. From honesty and reciprocity to fairness, accountability, and transparency, this episode uncovers the hidden social and biological frameworks that make trust the cornerstone of business and life.In the second half, Kelly breaks down how to intentionally build trust in business development using five powerful steps rooted in human psychology. He explains how safety, consistency, competence, empathy, and follow-through work together to calm the brain's natural defense system and open the door to real connection. The result is a masterclass on transforming reliability into loyalty — and why, in a world full of noise, predictability and authenticity are the ultimate business advantage.Key Takeaways: 1. Trust is the silent force that drives every deal, relationship, and opportunity in business development—it's the real currency behind every transaction.2. Society relies on trust to function, but it's not automatic because our biology evolved to protect us before it connects us.3. Words and promises form the foundation of trust; when they're broken, the entire system of communication and reliability collapses.4. Fairness, accountability, and reciprocity are natural laws of trust that make cooperation possible and keep relationships stable.5. Predictability is the cornerstone of trust—when people know what to expect, their fear response quiets and loyalty forms.6. Transparency builds safety; secrecy breeds suspicion. Sharing your process and progress openly earns long-term confidence.7. Reputation is trust's shortcut—each fulfilled promise becomes proof of credibility and a signal to others that you're dependable.8. Trust isn't built on perfection, but on consistency; reliability over time is what transforms confidence into loyalty.9. To earn trust faster, focus on emotional safety, consistency, competence, empathy, and follow-through in every interaction.10. The goal of business development isn't to persuade—it's to help the human nervous system decide, “I'm safe with you,” because that's when opportunity.

The Social Security Fairness Act, which was signed into law at the start of 2025, has been in effect for about nine months since this game-changing legislation repealed both the Windfall Elimination Provision and the Government Pension Offset, restoring and increasing Social Security benefits for millions of retirees, especially teachers and public employees who worked in jobs exempt from Social Security. In this episode, I discuss exactly who qualifies for these newly restored benefits, explain how the Social Security Administration is handling the rollout, and give you a step-by-step guide on what to do if you haven't received your payment yet. I'll also walk you through critical tax changes you'll need to consider if you're now receiving this extra income, and practical strategies to avoid any nasty tax surprises at the end of the year. You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... [02:26] Social Security Fairness Act overview and impact. [05:57] Who is eligible for Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) or Government Pension Offset (GPO). [07:35] Applying for your benefits. [08:16] How much Social Security becomes taxable. [11:09] Increasing withholding on pensions, IRA, 401(k), or earned income. What Is the Social Security Fairness Act? Signed into law by President Biden in January 2025, the Social Security Fairness Act has restored benefits for millions of retirees who were previously penalized due to their employment in jobs that were exempt from Social Security taxes. These roles frequently include teachers and certain municipal or state employees. For years, retirees in those positions received a reduced Social Security benefit due to provisions known as the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and Government Pension Offset (GPO). Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP): Affected individuals who worked in both Social Security-covered and non-covered jobs, resulting in a reduced Social Security benefit. Government Pension Offset (GPO): Reduced the spousal or survivor Social Security benefit for those receiving a government pension from non-covered employment (like teachers in Connecticut). With the repeal of these two provisions, retirees are now eligible to receive their full Social Security benefit, as well as the entirety of their eligible spousal or survivor benefits, regardless of their pension amount. Who Is Impacted? The Act primarily benefits retirees who worked in state or municipal jobs excluded from Social Security wage contributions (think teachers, police, firefighters, or other state employees in certain states). It also helps spouses or survivors of such retirees, who, under the GPO, were denied or saw dramatic reductions in their spousal/survivor benefits. As an example, if a teacher in Connecticut was receiving a $3,000/month pension, they were previously eligible for only a fraction of their spouse's Social Security survivor benefit. Now, with the Act's passage, they can receive the full amount, eliminating a significant hardship for many families. The Social Security Administration has processed around 3.1 million payments, exceeding prior estimates, and paid out approximately $17 billion. However, some eligible recipients have yet to see increases, particularly those who never filed because they believed they wouldn't qualify. What Should You Do If You're Eligible? If you haven't received a payment adjustment, you might be missing out on thousands of dollars. File or Re-file: Eligible recipients should visit SSA.gov to update or submit a new application for benefits. Check Your Status: Even if you're not currently receiving Social Security, consult the SSA to determine your eligibility for individual, spousal, or survivor benefits, especially once you reach full retirement age (typically between 66-67). Lots of people have been automatically credited and are receiving retroactive payments, but those who never applied in the first place due to WEP and GPO restrictions must now take proactive steps. Tax Implications of Increased Social Security Benefits More income is always welcome, but it may come with new tax responsibilities. Here's what you need to know: Social Security Taxation Basics: Taxability depends on your total income: adjusted gross income (AGI), plus half of your Social Security benefit, plus tax-exempt interest. Generally, married couples with less than $32,000 combined income owe no tax on Social Security, and between $32,000 and $44,000, up to 50% of benefits may be taxable, then over $44,000, up to 85% of benefits can be taxable. For individuals, the thresholds are $25,000 and $34,000. Avoid Surprises by adjusting your tax withholding, either by filing IRS Form W-4V for Social Security, or updating withholdings on pensions or retirement accounts. You may also make quarterly estimated payments, especially if you live in a state with income tax. Social Security does not withhold state income taxes, so plan accordingly to avoid penalties and interest. With these changes, it's more important than ever to review your retirement plan and tax strategy. Speak to a qualified accountant and financial advisor to ensure you are maximizing your benefits and staying compliant with tax requirements.

We live in a culture obsessed with fairness. The word is heavy with scales, tallies, and invisible scoreboards. Did I do my part? Did they? Am I getting what I deserve? Is someone getting more than me? Fairness sounds righteous on the surface, but when you live inside it, fairness is a trap. It drives us inward, judging ourselves and everyone else against an impossible standard, measuring every crumb, every kindness, every silence.When fairness rules, love shrinks. We second-guess our own thoughts, scold ourselves for favoritism, and keep our generosity under lock and key so we won't “give too much.” Fairness whispers that compassion must be rationed, that care must be weighed like coins, that justice is about sameness instead of healing.But the ancient call of Spirit is not fairness. It is equity.Equity is not about everyone receiving the same thing. It is about giving each person what they need. When I stop worrying whether I've distributed care evenly across every relationship, and instead ask, “What does this one need from me right now?” something shifts. Relief floods in. My shoulders unclench. I no longer have to police every interaction or keep score of invisible debts. I am free to meet the human being in front of me.That is the heart of justice. Justice is not sameness. Justice is not balancing a ledger. Justice is seeing clearly and acting rightly. It is equity.The Trap of FairnessFairness has become one of the most cherished myths of our time, especially in societies built on meritocracy. We are told from childhood: if you work hard, if you follow the rules, if you wait your turn, things will be fair. But fairness is fragile. It crumbles the moment we see how wealth, health, opportunity, and power are not evenly spread. It fractures when we notice how privilege tilts the scales. And it collapses entirely when we realize that life itself is not fair: illness, disaster, and tragedy visit without rhyme or reason.When fairness fails, many double down. We chase punishments and rewards, lawsuits and policies, hoping someone, somewhere, will enforce the rules of fairness. But the more tightly we cling to fairness, the more bitter and exhausted we become. The constant comparison, who has more, who has less, who “deserves” what, keeps us in a state of judgment, always suspicious, always resentful.Fairness was never enough.The Relief of EquityEquity breaks the spell. Equity says: stop measuring. Stop comparing. Look at the person before you and ask, “What do they need?”Some need encouragement, others need listening, others need space. Some need bread for their table, others need a place to belong, others need protection from harm. Justice is not everyone receiving the same thing. Justice is everyone receiving what will allow them to live, to heal, to flourish.When we shift to equity, the anxiety of fairness dissolves. Instead of wondering, “Am I doing enough for everyone equally?” we ask, “Am I present, honest, and caring in this relationship?” It becomes practical. Relational. Human.That first step is where the practice begins: check your relationships. Are you being equitable with those around you? Not fair, but equitable. Does your friend who is grieving receive your tenderness, even if that means you cancel plans with someone else? Does your coworker who is struggling receive your help, even if it takes more of your time than another? Do you allow yourself to receive what you need, even if someone else doesn't understand?This is equity. It feels like a deep sigh, a release from the tyranny of fairness.From Personal to CommunalThe small shift in our relationships points toward a larger horizon. If justice is equity in the personal sphere, then justice is equity in the communal sphere as well.When we give only what is fair, society becomes rigid. Schools, hospitals, workplaces, and governments end up enforcing sameness, not care. But when we design systems with equity in mind, we look at who has been excluded, who has been harmed, who carries heavier burdens, and we act to rebalance.Equity notices that some need ramps, others need interpreters, others need affordable medicine, others need safety from violence. Equity doesn't ask who deserves it. Equity doesn't weigh worthiness. Equity simply acts to provide what is needed so that everyone can participate fully in life.To treat one person unjustly is to treat everyone unjustly. Because once we decide that someone can be excluded, neglected, or silenced in the name of fairness, we set a precedent that eventually comes for us all. Equity protects the whole by tending to the part.Scarcity and the Lie of DeservednessOne of the deepest obstacles to equity is the myth of scarcity. We are taught to believe there is not enough: enough food, enough time, enough money, enough love. And in a world of scarcity, equity sounds threatening. If they get what they need, will there be enough left for me?But scarcity is a lie. Our world already produces more food than we consume, more wealth than we distribute, more capacity for care than we unleash. Scarcity is an invention of empire, a tool to keep us grasping and competing instead of sharing and creating.Deservedness is scarcity's twin. We spend endless hours debating who deserves help, who deserves opportunity, who deserves compassion. But nobody deserves anything. Deserve is the wrong question. The right question is: what do they need?When we stop asking “Who deserves?” and start asking “What is needed?” the world changes. Compassion flows more freely. Communities grow stronger. Justice becomes possible.Living Into the PossibleThe call is not abstract. The call is practical. Begin with your relationships. Ask what equity looks like in your friendships, in your family, in your community. Practice it, even in small ways. Notice the relief it brings.Then lift your eyes. See the wider society. Ask: who around me is not receiving what they need to flourish? What can I do, in partnership with others, to change that? Sometimes the answer is mutual aid. Sometimes it is advocacy. Sometimes it is simply showing up and standing alongside the vulnerable.Justice is not waiting for laws to be rewritten or for leaders to act. Justice is practicing equity now, in our daily lives, in our choices, in our commitments.The dream is an equitable society. A world where no one is left behind, no one is cast aside, no one is told to earn their right to live. Every small act of equity is a seed of that world. The more seeds we plant, the more inevitable that world becomes.A Call to ActionSo here is the call: stop chasing fairness. Stop policing yourself with invisible scales. Stop rationing compassion. Let relief wash over you.Practice equity in your relationships. Ask what each person needs, and respond with love.Then widen your practice to your neighborhood, your community, your world. See where equity is missing, and act.Because justice is not a concept. Justice is a way of living. Justice is equity. Righteousness is right relationship. And the Spirit who made us longs for both.To treat one person unjustly is to treat everyone unjustly. But to treat one person equitably is to open the door for justice to grow everywhere.May we live as if an equitable world is already possible. And in our living, may we help bring it into being.Now find a quiet place. Sit comfortably. Close your eyes if you wish.Take a slow, steady breath in.Breathe in calm.Breathe out calm.Let your body settle. Let your spirit rest in the present moment.Now, softly speak these words aloud, letting each phrase open like a seed within you:May I treat myself with equity,giving myself what I need in this moment.May I treat my loved ones with equity,giving them what they need in this moment.May I treat my friends and community with equity,giving them what they need in this moment.May I treat my enemies with equity,giving them what they need in this moment.Rest again in silence. Feel how each phrase widens the circle of your care, from self, to loved ones, to community, to those who oppose you.Stay here as long as you need. Let the practice reshape your breath, your thoughts, your life.Thanks for reading!

AI is reshaping industries at a rapid pace, but as its influence grows, so do the ethical concerns that come with it. This episode examines how AI is being applied across sectors such as healthcare, finance, and retail, while also exploring the crucial issue of ensuring that these technologies align with human values. In this conversation, Lois Houston and Nikita Abraham are joined by Hemant Gahankari, Senior Principal OCI Instructor, who emphasizes the importance of fairness, inclusivity, transparency, and accountability in AI systems. AI for You: https://mylearn.oracle.com/ou/course/ai-for-you/152601/ Oracle University Learning Community: https://education.oracle.com/ou-community LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/oracle-university/ X: https://x.com/Oracle_Edu Special thanks to Arijit Ghosh, David Wright, Kris-Ann Nansen, Radhika Banka, and the OU Studio Team for helping us create this episode. ---------------------------------------------------- Episode Transcript: 00:00 Welcome to the Oracle University Podcast, the first stop on your cloud journey. During this series of informative podcasts, we'll bring you foundational training on the most popular Oracle technologies. Let's get started! 00:25 Lois: Welcome to the Oracle University Podcast! I'm Lois Houston, Director of Innovation Programs with Oracle University, and with me is Nikita Abraham, Team Lead: Editorial Services. Nikita: Hey everyone! In our last episode, we spoke about how Oracle integrates AI capabilities into its Fusion Applications to enhance business workflows, and we focused on Predictive, Generative, and Agentic AI. Lois: Today, we'll discuss the various applications of AI. This is the final episode in our AI series, and before we close, we'll also touch upon ethical and responsible AI. 01:01 Nikita: Taking us through all of this is Senior Principal OCI Instructor Hemant Gahankari. Hi Hemant! AI is pretty much everywhere today. So, can you explain how it is being used in industries like retail, hospitality, health care, and so on? Hemant: AI isn't just for sci-fi movies anymore. It's helping doctors spot diseases earlier and even discover new drugs faster. Imagine an AI that can look at an X-ray and say, hey, there is something sketchy here before a human even notices. Wild, right? Banks and fintech companies are all over AI. Fraud detection. AI has got it covered. Those robo advisors managing your investments? That's AI too. Ever noticed how e-commerce companies always seem to know what you want? That's AI studying your habits and nudging you towards that next purchase or binge watch. Factories are getting smarter. AI predicts when machines will fail so they can fix them before everything grinds to a halt. Less downtime, more efficiency. Everyone wins. Farming has gone high tech. Drones and AI analyze crops, optimize water use, and even help with harvesting. Self-driving cars get all the hype, but even your everyday GPS uses AI to dodge traffic jams. And if AI can save me from sitting in bumper-to-bumper traffic, I'm all for it. 02:40 Nikita: Agreed! Thanks for that overview, but let's get into specific scenarios within each industry. Hemant: Let us take a scenario in the retail industry-- a retail clothing line with dozens of brick-and-mortar stores. Maintaining proper inventory levels in stores and regional warehouses is critical for retailers. In this low-margin business, being out of a popular product is especially challenging during sales and promotions. Managers want to delight shoppers and increase sales but without overbuying. That's where AI steps in. The retailer has multiple information sources, ranging from point-of-sale terminals to warehouse inventory systems. This data can be used to train a forecasting model that can make predictions, such as demand increase due to a holiday or planned marketing promotion, and determine the time required to acquire and distribute the extra inventory. Most ERP-based forecasting systems can produce sophisticated reports. A generative AI report writer goes further, creating custom plain-language summaries of these reports tailored for each store, instructing managers about how to maximize sales of well-stocked items while mitigating possible shortages. 04:11 Lois: Ok. How is AI being used in the hospitality sector, Hemant? Hemant: Let us take an example of a hotel chain that depends on positive ratings on social media and review websites. One common challenge they face is keeping track of online reviews, leading to missed opportunities to engage unhappy customers complaining on social media. Hotel managers don't know what's being said fast enough to address problems in real-time. Here, AI can be used to create a large data set from the tens of thousands of previously published online reviews. A textual language AI system can perform a sentiment analysis across the data to determine a baseline that can be periodically re-evaluated to spot trends. Data scientists could also build a model that correlates these textual messages and their sentiments against specific hotel locations and other factors, such as weather. Generative AI can extract valuable suggestions and insights from both positive and negative comments. 05:27 Nikita: That's great. And what about Financial Services? I know banks use AI quite often to detect fraud. Hemant: Unfortunately, fraud can creep into any part of a bank's retail operations. Fraud can happen with online transactions, from a phone or browser, and offsite ATMs too. Without trust, banks won't have customers or shareholders. Excessive fraud and delays in detecting it can violate financial industry regulations. Fraud detection combines AI technologies, such as computer vision to interpret scanned documents, document verification to authenticate IDs like driver's licenses, and machine learning to analyze patterns. These tools work together to assess the risk of fraud in each transaction within seconds. When the system detects a high risk, it triggers automated responses, such as placing holds on withdrawals or requesting additional identification from customers, to prevent fraudulent activity and protect both the business and its client. 06:42 Nikita: Wow, interesting. And how is AI being used in the health industry, especially when it comes to improving patient care? Hemant: Medical appointments can be frustrating for everyone involved—patients, receptionists, nurses, and physicians. There are many time-consuming steps, including scheduling, checking in, interactions with the doctors, checking out, and follow-ups. AI can fix this problem through electronic health records to analyze lab results, paper forms, scans, and structured data, summarizing insights for doctors with the latest research and patient history. This helps practice reduced costs, boost earnings, and deliver faster, more personalized care. 07:32 Lois: Let's take a look at one more industry. How is manufacturing using AI? Hemant: A factory that makes metal parts and other products use both visual inspections and electronic means to monitor product quality. A part that fails to meet the requirements may be reworked or repurposed, or it may need to be scrapped. The factory seeks to maximize profits and throughput by shipping as much good material as possible, while minimizing waste by detecting and handling defects early. The way AI can help here is with the quality assurance process, which creates X-ray images. This data can be interpreted by computer vision, which can learn to identify cracks and other weak spots, after being trained on a large data set. In addition, problematic or ambiguous data can be highlighted for human inspectors. 08:36 Oracle University's Race to Certification 2025 is your ticket to free training and certification in today's hottest tech.

That's education.oracle.com/race-to-certification-2025. 09:20 Nikita: Welcome back! AI can be used effectively to automate a variety of tasks to improve productivity, efficiency, cost savings. But I'm sure AI has its constraints too, right? Can you talk about what happens if AI isn't able to echo human ethics? Hemant: AI can fail due to lack of ethics. AI can spot patterns, not make moral calls. It doesn't feel guilt, understand context, or take responsibility. That is still up to us. Decisions are only as good as the data behind them. For example, health care AI underdiagnosing women because research data was mostly male. Artificial narrow intelligence tends to automate discrimination at scale. Recruiting AI downgraded resumes just because it had a word "women's" (for example, women's chess club). Who is responsible when AI fails? For example, if a self-driving car hits someone, we cannot blame the car. Then who owns the failure? The programmer? The CEO? Can we really trust corporations or governments having programmed the use of AI not to be evil correctly? So, it's clear that AI needs oversight to function smoothly. 10:48 Lois: So, Hemant, how can we design AI in ways that respect and reflect human values? Hemant: Think of ethics like a tree. It needs all parts working together. Roots represent intent. That is our values and principles. The trunk stands for safeguards, our systems, and structures. And the branches are the outcomes we aim for. If the roots are shallow, the tree falls. If the trunk is weak, damage seeps through. The health of roots and trunk shapes the strength of our ethical outcomes. Fairness means nothing without ethical intent behind it. For example, a bank promotes its loan algorithm as fair. But it uses zip codes in decision-making, effectively penalizing people based on race. That's not fairness. That's harm disguised as data. Inclusivity depends on the intent sustainability. Inclusive design isn't just a check box. It needs a long-term commitment. For example, controllers for gamers with disabilities are only possible because of sustained R&D and intentional design choices. Without investment in inclusion, accessibility is left behind. Transparency depends on the safeguard robustness. Transparency is only useful if the system is secure and resilient. For example, a medical AI may be explainable, but if it is vulnerable to hacking, transparency won't matter. Accountability depends on the safeguard privacy and traceability. You can't hold people accountable if there is no trail to follow. For example, after a fatal self-driving car crash, deleted system logs meant no one could be held responsible. Without auditability, accountability collapses. So remember, outcomes are what we see, but they rely on intent to guide priorities and safeguards to support execution. That's why humans must have a final say. AI has no grasp of ethics, but we do. 13:16 Nikita: So, what you're saying is ethical intent and robust AI safeguards need to go hand in hand if we are to truly leverage AI we can trust. Hemant: When it comes to AI, preventing harm is a must. Take self-driving cars, for example. Keeping pedestrians safe is absolutely critical, which means the technology has to be rock solid and reliable. At the same time, fairness and inclusivity can't be overlooked. If an AI system used for hiring learns from biased past data, say, mostly male candidates being hired, it can end up repeating those biases, shutting out qualified candidates unfairly. Transparency and accountability go hand in hand. Imagine a loan rejection if the AI's decision isn't clear or explainable. It becomes impossible for someone to challenge or understand why they were turned down. And of course, robustness supports fairness too. Loan approval systems need strong security to prevent attacks that could manipulate decisions and undermine trust. We must build AI that reflects human values and has safeguards. This makes sure that AI is fair, inclusive, transparent, and accountable. 14:44 Lois: Before we wrap, can you talk about why AI can fail? Let's continue with your analogy of the tree. Can you explain how AI failures occur and how we can address them? Hemant: Root elements like do not harm and sustainability are fundamental to ethical AI development. When these roots fail, the consequences can be serious. For example, a clear failure of do not harm is AI-powered surveillance tools misused by authoritarian regimes. This happens because there were no ethical constraints guiding how the technology was deployed. The solution is clear-- implement strong ethical use policies and conduct human rights impact assessment to prevent such misuse. On the sustainability front, training AI models can consume massive amount of energy. This failure occurs because environmental costs are not considered. To fix this, organizations are adopting carbon-aware computing practices to minimize AI's environmental footprint. By addressing these root failures, we can ensure AI is developed and used responsibly with respect for human rights and the planet. An example of a robustness failure can be a chatbot hallucinating nonexistent legal precedence used in court filings. This could be due to training on unverified internet data and no fact-checking layer. This can be fixed by grounding in authoritative databases. An example of a privacy failure can be AI facial recognition database created without user consent. The reason being no consent was taken for data collection. This can be fixed by adopting privacy-preserving techniques. An example of a fairness failure can be generated images of CEOs as white men and nurses as women, minorities. The reason being training on imbalanced internet images reflecting societal stereotypes. And the fix is to use diverse set of images. 17:18 Lois: I think this would be incomplete if we don't talk about inclusivity, transparency, and accountability failures. How can they be addressed, Hemant? Hemant: An example of an inclusivity failure can be a voice assistant not understanding accents. The reason being training data lacked diversity. And the fix is to use inclusive data. An example of a transparency and accountability failure can be teachers could not challenge AI-generated performance scores due to opaque calculations. The reason being no explainability tools are used. The fix being high-impact AI needs human review pathways and explainability built in. 18:04 Lois: Thank you, Hemant, for a fantastic conversation. We got some great insights into responsible and ethical AI. Nikita: Thank you, Hemant!

Oft geht es darum, ob wir unsere eigene Wahrheit leben oder ob wir uns der Realität stellen.Wir diskutieren Themen wie Einsatz und Entlohnung, Verantwortung für das eigene Handeln und die Frage, ob es manchmal wirklich um Fairness geht – oder ob viele Diskussionen am Ende nur auf eine Umverteilung hinauslaufen.Eine ehrliche Folge, in der wir den Blick schärfen: Wo beginnt gesunder Menschenverstand wirklich – und wo endet er?Instagram:@finanzenmitphil@finanzenmitfuchs#menschenverstand #realität #eigeneWahrheit #einsatzundzahlt #verantwortung #finanziellefreiheit #geldgedanken #finanzpodcast #vermögensaufbau

Hey Sport-Junkies und Podcast-Nerds, willkommen zu Episode 123 von Grown Man Sport – wir packen heute den Ballon d'Or 2025 in die Mangel: Ousmane Dembélé holt sich den großen Pott, aber war das wirklich verdient?
Prenups aren't romantic, but they are powerful. In this episode, NY matrimonial attorney Evan Schein explains what a prenup can and cannot do, why early conversations matter, and how precise drafting prevents costly fights later. We talk disclosure, fairness, and how to keep agreements current as life changes. What you'll learn What a prenup is, and isn't: A financial agreement signed before marriage that can cover assets, debt, and spousal support. In New York, it cannot set child support, kid expenses, custody, or parenting terms. Disclosure that holds up: Why both partners should list assets, accounts, businesses, and premarital property with as much detail as possible. Separate vs. marital property: How to define each, and why you must specify how income from a separate business is treated during marriage. Fairness and enforceability: Factors courts look at later, including independent counsel, full disclosure, and whether terms were unconscionable then or now. Avoiding the “muddy middle”: Clear drafting prevents contradictions and vague catch-all clauses that derail enforcement. Pressure is a red flag: Don't sign because the date is set. Start early, get your own lawyer, and understand real-life implications. Amend as life changes: You can update with a postnup or amend the prenup. Revisit every 3 to 5 years or after major life events. Start the conversation sooner: Talk money, lifestyle, goals, and expectations before venues are booked. With the right strategy, you can protect love and money, reduce conflict, and set expectations that age well. You don't have to figure this out alone.

In der 67. Folge des DEB-Podcasts „Coach the Coach“ begrüßt Karl Schwarzenbrunner die erfahrene Trainerin und Sportwissenschaftlerin Kerstin Dudichum-Kiene. Sie ist nicht nur A-Level-Coach im Volleyball und Yogalehrerin, sondern auch Mitglied des Projektteams von ACES Womxn 4 Volleyball. Gleich zu Beginn wird klar: Diese Episode ist kein reines Fachgespräch über Trainingsmethoden, sondern ein Einblick in eine Bewegung, die den Volleyball nachhaltig verändern möchte, hin zu mehr Vielfalt, Fairness und weiblicher Führung. ACES ist eine internationale Plattform, gegründet von Elena Kiesling und Christy Swagerty, die sich für mehr weibliche Sichtbarkeit und Führungsstärke im Volleyball einsetzt. Ausgangspunkt ist ein Missstand: In der deutschen Volleyball-Bundesliga stellen Frauen derzeit nur rund 4,8 % der Headcoaches und 15,2 % der Assistant Coaches. Die Mehrheit der Spielerinnen verlässt nach der aktiven Karriere den Sport, ohne andere Wege der Mitgestaltung zu finden. Die Plattform verfolgt drei zentrale Schwerpunkte: Visibility Frauen im Volleyball sollen sichtbar werden: Ihre Geschichten und Erfahrungen werden auf einer digitalen, kollaborativen Plattform erzählt, um gegenseitige Unterstützung zu fördern. Mentorship ACES bringt aktuelle Führungskräfte und Expertinnen mit künftigen Leaderinnen zusammen, um Wissen zu vermitteln und in nachhaltige Führungskompetenz zu verwandeln. Opportunities Es werden Lernmöglichkeiten, Jobangebote und Fortbildungsoptionen für Frauen im Volleyball bereitgestellt, um Karrieren zu verlängern und weibliche Führung zu stärken. Mit diesem klaren Fokus auf Mentoring, Storytelling und Chancen will ACES nicht nur inspirieren, sondern konkret Handlungsräume schaffen, damit mehr Frauen in verantwortliche Positionen kommen und der Volleyballsport insgesamt von mehr Diversität und neuen Führungsstilen profitiert. Gemeinsam analysieren Karl und Kerstin anschließend die Gründe, warum es im Volleyball trotz einer großen weiblichen Spielerbasis so wenige Trainerinnen gibt. Sie diskutieren strukturelle Hindernisse, tradierte Rollenbilder und fehlende Netzwerke, aber auch individuelle Entscheidungen. Das Gespräch bleibt dabei nicht auf der Problemebene stehen, sondern öffnet den Blick für Lösungsansätze und Potenziale. Diese Podcastfolge zeigt eindrucksvoll, wie Kerstin Dudichum-Kiene und die Gründerinnen von ACES, Elena Kiesling und Christy Swagerty, den Volleyball neu denken. Wer erfahren will, wie Werte, Mentoring und Chancen mehr Frauen an die Spitze bringen können, sollte unbedingt reinhören.

Your brain isn't as rational as you think, and that blind spot can wreck your decision-making, relationships, and even your health. In this episode, you'll learn how to spot the hidden cognitive traps that even the smartest people fall for, and how to upgrade your thinking so you can perform better, live longer, and make choices that actually serve you. Watch the condensed video highlight version of this episode (and much more!) on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Steven Pinker, a world-renowned cognitive psychologist, Harvard professor, and bestselling author whose research reshaped how we understand language, bias, social norms, and rationality. Pinker's decades of scholarship make him a trusted guide to the mechanics of the mind and the behaviors that either elevate or derail human performance and longevity. Together they break down how the brain actually reasons, why smart people still fall for tribal thinking, what current AI gets wrong about human intelligence, and how “common knowledge” quietly governs cooperation, law, and civility. This is a masterclass in brain optimization through better thinking, built for people who care about biohacking, hacking mental models, neuroplasticity, and high-performance decision-making. You'll learn: • How to recognize and counter the “my-side bias,” even if you're highly intelligent • Why common knowledge creates and sustains social norms and coordination • The art of indirect speech and tact, and how to calibrate your words to reduce social risk • Simple upgrades that make video calls feel closer to real eye contact and why that boosts trust • What today's AI gets wrong about minds and why models hallucinate • Rational habits that work in the real world: steelmanning, probabilistic thinking, adversarial collaboration, and making bets as a tax on bad arguments • Why liberal democracy fits human nature better than autocracy and how norms erode or hold • How to rebuild face-to-face social skills in a screen-first culture to improve resilience and performance This is essential listening for fans of biohacking, brain optimization, human performance, neuroplasticity, and longevity who want clear, usable frameworks to think better and live better with Dave Asprey. Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade brings you the knowledge to take control of your biology, extend your longevity, and optimize every system in your body and mind. Each episode delivers cutting-edge insights in health, performance, neuroscience, supplements, nutrition, biohacking, emotional intelligence, and conscious living. New episodes are released every Tuesday, Thursday, Friday (audio-only), and Sunday (BONUS). Dave asks the questions no one else will and gives you real tools to become stronger, smarter, and more resilient.

At EUVC Summit 2025, Marius Istrate didn't come to pitch a fund or debate capital structures.He came to talk about something harder to define—but more urgent than ever: inspirational European leadership.And it wasn't all comfortable.“It's great to win together with others. But we should be capable of winning alone if needed.”Marius spoke as someone who's helped shape ecosystems from the ground up. As the leader of Romania's largest angel group, he's seen firsthand what local ambition looks like—and what it lacks.“I don't want to be the VC who accidentally becomes a politician because no one else stepped up.”But leadership, he argued, isn't about power. It's about clarity, empathy, and ownership.“If you pinned every place in Europe that calls itself the ‘Silicon Valley of Europe,' the map would collapse.”The obsession with copying Silicon Valley is a distraction. What Europe needs isn't mimicry—it's confidence in its own identity. And that means policies, capital structures, and culture that reflect our values, not someone else's blueprint.One of the most poignant parts of Marius' talk centered on something distinctly European:“It's not fair that I should work more than my parents. It's not fair that my retirement is uncertain.”That sense of fairness—a shared European moral compass—isn't a bug. It's a feature.And it can inform the kind of political and ecosystem leadership we need now.“People don't want perfection. They want dignity. And when possible, empathy.”In a time of rising populism and political gridlock, this felt like a quiet manifesto for something different.“It shouldn't be our job to inspire people—because our political leaders should already be doing that.”Marius wasn't calling for VCs to become politicians. He was calling for a renaissance of purpose in Europe. For a generation of builders, thinkers, and yes, investors, to step up and fill the vacuum—not with slogans, but with systems, strategy, and soul.“Give us something to hope for—something we can call our own.”This wasn't a policy talk. It was a wake-up call.And in classic EUVC fashion, it ended with an open invitation: Let's talk more. Let's build better. Let's define what European leadership really means—together.From VC to VisionSilicon Valley of Europe? Please.Fairness, Dignity, EmpathyA Call to Build What's Ours
The Inner Image: How Your Self-Perception Creates Your RealityHello friend,Have you ever wondered why two people can experience the same situation so differently? Or why some seem to attract abundance while others struggle despite similar efforts?"The inner image shapes the outer world. What we truly believe about ourselves is everything."This truth has been whispering to us through the ages, though we've often been too distracted to hear it. The reality we experience isn't happening to us—it's unfolding through us.The universe responds not to what we say we want, but to who we believe ourselves to be.And a our belief that we are open to receive.Think about an area in your life where you feel stuck.

Following Jesus costs a great deal more than we're able to afford on our own. Let's not kid ourselves, there are crosses with our names on them, just waiting for us. And to be clear: in Luke, “take up your cross” isn't code for generic misery, like “my bunions are acting up.” The cross is the predictable blowback you get for aligning publicly with Jesus and his upside-down reign in a world organized to keep the powerful comfortable. It's the social shame and concrete political and economic risk that come when you side with the people Jesus sides with. Subscribe to us on iTunes! Sermon text: web | doc

At the tail end of the summer, a rumor that "Trump is critically ill or dead" suddenly spread on social media, exposing the delicate relationship between the "old emperor" and the "new prince." Meanwhile, a battle for control of Congress has already begun on the electoral map. From the Texas Republican Party's move to the California Democratic Party's ountermeasures, the two parties have engaged in an extreme offense and defense over redistricting.

Leslie welcomes back Fred Redmond, Secretary-Treasurer of the 63 unions and 15 million members of the AFL-CIO. In 2022, he was unanimously elected to the position as the highest ranking African American officer in the history of America's labor movement. Secretary Redmond shares how he and the AFL-CIO just wrapped up their nationwide “It's Better in a Union: Fighting for Freedom, Fairness and Security” bus tour. While big corporations profit off the backs of working people and politicians continue to raise costs and cut essential lifesaving services, the labor movement traveled the country providing voice to and building power with workers in the lead up to Labor Day. Mr. Redmond also blasts the new Trump administration's Union-busting executive order, which was issued right before Labor Day. The new order rips away collective bargaining rights from workers at NASA, the International Trade Association, the NWS, and more.

For years, the Windfall Elimination Provision and Government Pension Offset reduced benefits for those who had rightfully earned them. Now that those policies are gone, many are left with questions. Eddie Holland joins us to help clarify what's changed and what it means for your retirement.Eddie Holland is a Senior Private Wealth Advisor and partner of Blue Trust in Greenville, South Carolina. He's also a CPA, a Certified Financial Planner (CFP®), and a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA®).A Quick History of WEP and GPOThe Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP), enacted over 40 years ago, reduces Social Security benefits for individuals receiving a non-covered pension—a pension from which no Social Security taxes were withheld. This often included employees in state and local government jobs, such as teachers, police officers, and firefighters.Similarly, the Government Pension Offset (GPO) reduced a spousal or survivor benefit for individuals in the same situation. These rules were designed to prevent “double-dipping,” but they often unfairly penalized modest-income workers, sometimes reducing their monthly Social Security checks by hundreds of dollars—or even eliminating their spousal or survivor benefits entirely.The Social Security Fairness Act of 2025That changed on January 5, 2025, when President Joe Biden signed the Social Security Fairness Act. This legislation repealed both WEP and GPO, effective retroactively as of January 2024. As a result:Nearly 3 million Americans became eligible for retroactive benefits.Future monthly benefits for those affected have also been adjusted upward.This marks a significant win for many retired public servants who had long felt the weight of these provisions.What to Expect if You're AffectedThere are two phases of payments:Retroactive Payments – Starting in March 2025, some individuals received large one-time deposits representing the benefits they should have received since January 2024. These payments often arrived with little to no explanation, leaving many confused. Adjusted Monthly Benefits – Beginning in April 2025, Social Security began increasing ongoing monthly benefits for those impacted.It's important to note that these changes only apply to individuals with a non-covered pension, not all civil service employees.Steps to Take if You Think You QualifyIf you believe these changes may apply to you, Eddie recommends two simple steps:Check Your Account Online. Visit SSA.gov to log in to your account (or create one if you haven't already). Contact the Social Security Administration. If your account doesn't show any updates or you have questions, call 1-800-772-1213 or schedule an appointment at your local SSA office to speak directly with an agent.If navigating these changes feels overwhelming, consider consulting a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) who specializes in matters related to Social Security, who can help you make informed, faith-based financial decisions. You can find one in your area by visiting FaithFi.com and clicking “Find a Professional”. On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm 60 years old and planning to retire early at 62. I'd also like to pay off my house before I retire. Is that a smart move, and is it realistic given my current financial situation?I understand that retiring before my full retirement age will result in a reduction of approximately 8% per year in my Social Security benefit. How do Social Security cost-of-living adjustments factor into that reduction?My grandson wants to be added as an authorized user on my credit card to take advantage of my good credit score so he can get a lower interest rate on a car loan.

”Why are some people treated differently? Why are some people chosen ones for no particular reason? And why do some people get to have that extra shine?” — Victoria AveyardUnfairness is a pervasive theme in a lot of fantasy fiction. With battles between good and evil dominating title after title, these tales appear to have a tight grasp on fairness and justice. But for Victoria Aveyard, the world of fantasy frequently falls short on these promises. Even in some of her favorite works, the light may ultimately overcome the darkness, but not every character is given a fair chance to shine. Victoria Aveyard is the number one New York Times bestselling author of The Red Queen series and the Realm Breaker series. In her work, she creates epic fantasy landscapes where women loom large and conventions around chosen characters are challenged.In this episode, Victoria opens up about why her sense of fairness took shape early, shares which undersized movie character is her icon, and reflects on why there's no escaping politics in literature. Settle in for a fast-paced episode filled with humor and a variety of Victoria's hot takes. ***For her reading challenge, Chosen/Unchosen, Victoria encourages readers to question the trope of “the chosen one.” She asks us to challenge why some are handed the quest, the crown, or the magic…and what happens to everyone else.Peruse selected titles and Victoria's complete reading challenge for free at thereadingculturepod.com/victoria-aveyard***This week's Beanstack Featured Librarian is Camille Perez, a former media specialist at the elementary and high school levels in Osceola County, Florida, and now a Beanstack team member.

Slam the Gavel welcomes Darla Hall to the podcast. Darla Hall came onto the podcast to share the story of her son, Nicholas Hall who was recently sentenced to 21 years in prison in Connecticut. Their nightmare began in 2020 when ALLEGATIONS surfaced just weeks after a custody dispute with his then-wife. One alleged victim later confirmed nothing ever happened, yet Nicholas Hall was still prosecuted AND from the very beginning, his case has been marked by conflicts of interest, COLLUSION, improper rulings, suppression of evidence and POWERFUL political CONNECTIONS that cast doubt on the FAIRNESS of his trial. In February 2025, Nicholas Hall was convicted on four of six counts, though not on the most serious of charges. On August 14th, he was sentenced and taken into custody despite FIVE YEARS ON BOND WITHOUT INCIDENT, no prior record, and voluntarily passing both psychosexual evaluation and a polygraph. EVIDENCE was mishandled, jury instructions FLAWED, WITNESSES COACHED and DNA methodology IMPROPERLY ADMITTED. Yet his motions for a new trial and bond pending appeal were DENIED. Darla Hall is seeking help, anyone who can offer EXPERT ASSISTANCE, legal representation for his APPEAL, or support with bond pending appeal to the Appellate Court. Nicholas Hall's FREEDOM and TRUTH depend on it.To Reach Darla Hall: NicholasHallMyStory@gmail.com, justicefornicholashall.org, 914-996-2055Supportshow(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri)Maryann Petri: dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comhttps://www.tiktok.com/@maryannpetriFacebook: https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/guitarpeace/Pinterest: Slam The Gavel Podcast/@guitarpeaceLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maryann-petri-62a46b1ab/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536 Twitter https://x.com/PetriMaryannEzlegalsuit.com https://ko-fi.com/maryannpetrihttps://www.zazzle.com/store/slam_the_gavel/about*DISCLAIMER* The use of this information is at the viewer/user's own risk.

So what would it look like if we lived this out? It'd look like neighborhoods where homeowners invite renters. Schools where kids who get free lunch sit at the head table. Churches where people on the margins don't just get charity, they get justice. I think it'd look like budgets that stop hunting for quarters in the couch cushions when it comes to feeding the hungry, while writing blank checks for weapons and tax breaks for the folks who need them least. It'd look like communities where the poor aren't a problem to solve but guests of honor at the feast. Subscribe to us on iTunes! Sermon text: web | doc

Inside Strategic Coach: Connecting Entrepreneurs With What Really Matters
Do you strive to stand out or fit in? In this episode, Dan Sullivan and Shannon Waller challenge the myth of equality and reveal why entrepreneurs are hardwired to pursue uniqueness. Learn how comparing yourself to others can hold you back, while focusing on being usefully different fuels impact, happiness, and growth in life and business. Here's some of what you'll learn in this episode:Why developing uniqueness demands a fundamentally different mindset.The most effective way to immediately stand out from the crowd.How the pursuit of equality traps people in endless competition.Which path is right for entrepreneurs, and why.The costly mistake of trying to be both unique and equal. Show Notes: You can choose to be unique or equal, but never both. Entrepreneurs succeed by leaning in to their unique skills, not by blending in. The question of whether to be equal to others or to be unique often arises early in life. Focusing on being useful, not simply “fitting in,” sets you apart and attracts opportunities. Being equal and being unique represent fundamentally different psychological and emotional worlds, and your thoughts and mindset will shift depending on which you pursue. Unique individuals are self-referential, while equal-focused people constantly compare themselves to others. Someone who focuses only on uniqueness creates their own games. Anytime you create something new, it disrupts the status quo. Fairness means consistent rules, not identical outcomes for everyone. The best collaborations happen among unique individuals playing by shared rules. Entrepreneurs will only be successful to the degree that their uniqueness is seen as increasingly useful to other people.
