Roxanne (certified nurse midwife) interviews one of their childbirth educators, Farrah (a nurse and doula), about two very different births after years of infertility, PCOS, and thyroid issues. Her first pregnancy was a surprise during COVID; ending in delivering an OP baby after extended labor, internal maneuvers, a deep second-degree tear, and bleeding linked to an overfull bladder. Her second birth was a rapid, intense labor with Miles Circuit attempts, shower transition, 911 call, and an unplanned home bathroom delivery on all fours before EMS transport!00:00 Welcome to MamasteFit00:21 Meet the Hosts01:09 Introducing Farrah01:48 Infertility and PCOS Journey03:59 Surprise Pregnancy Discovery06:49 Finding Perinatal Fitness Passion08:26 Pregnancy Prep and CrossFit09:25 Husband Away for Fellowship10:24 Labor Begins at Home15:35 Active Labor Water and Vomiting18:18 Hospital Arrival at Seven Centimeters20:27 Long OP Labor and Maneuvers28:48 Birth Hemorrhage and Recovery31:57 Tear Repair Explained34:35 Tongue Tie and Feeding Struggles38:29 Transition to Baby Two Story38:59 Prenatal Struggles39:47 Finding the Right Doula42:12 Early Labor Signs46:01 Miles Circuit Chaos48:50 Shower Spiral Calls51:25 Dad Steps In55:02 911 and Bathroom Birth01:00:01 Placenta Wait Hospital Transfer01:03:36 Feeding and Allergy Journey01:06:44 Baby Three Plans Wrap Up01:08:39 Podcast Outro and Offers————

On Horror Joy, Jeff is joined by author Michael Boulerice about his novella Inhalation (released June 16). Boulerice shares his origin story—writing nonfiction essays online before shifting to horror 4–5 years ago with help from developmental editor Alex Woodrow—leading to short-story sales and publishing with Dead Sky (including Feeding the Wheel). Michael and Jeff discuss why haunted house stories endure as fears of a corrupted safe space, then talk spoiler-light about Inhalation's decaying home, Catholic family dynamics, weaponized belief, and Alice in Wonderland's Caterpillar as cosmic-horror inspiration tied to Boulerice's late father-in-law, whom the book tributes. Boulerice previews a themed collection, Ether's Wood Elementary Primer (summer 2027), plus novels in progress, and cites recent joys like Widow's Bay, Beyond the Walls, The Backrooms, and the film Human Lanterns.

A meditation preached by Fr. Eric Nicolai on August 1, 2026 at Ellentor Centre in Toronto. John 6:1-15 tells of the account of the feeding of the 5 thousand. Lots of people. A real problem. A multitude had followed him. Lifting up his eyes, then, and seeing that a multitude was coming to himHe looked up with mercy, with compassion. In front of the problem, the numbers, the money, the few pieces of bread, we hear about that little boy. 10 or 12 years old. Not with his parents. Free to help.One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to him, John 6, 9-10: “There is a lad here who has five barley loaves and two fish; but what are they among so many?”  Jesus said, “Make the people sit down.” Now there was much grass in the place; so the men sat down, in number about five thousand. 

Is it okay to wrestle with God? To doubt, to question, to demand a blessing before you let go?In this sermon for the Tenth Sunday after Pentecost, The Rev. Craig Swan turns to Jacob's night at the Jabbok (Genesis 32:22–31) — the moment his past finally catches up with him, and he is left alone to wrestle with a stranger until daybreak. Fr. Craig traces this as both a physical struggle and a spiritual one: will Jacob run from the consequences of his choices, or step into the role he schemed his way into? He connects Jacob's limp — carried away "injured but secure" — to Paul's own hard-won faith in 2 Timothy, arguing that the "victor's crown" was never about accomplishment, but about never letting go of trust through doubt and darkness.The sermon closes with an invitation: growing into a mature faith means moving past childhood certainty and owning a faith tested by our own struggle — just like Jacob at Peniel.Scripture ReadingsGenesis 32:22–31 — Jacob wrestles with God at the JabbokPsalm 17:1–7, 15 — "Show me your marvelous, loving-kindness, O Savior"Romans 9:1–5 — Paul's anguish for his own peopleMatthew 14:13–21 — Feeding of the five thousandSt. Peter's by-the-Sea is an Episcopal Church in Narragansett, Rhode Island.Sunday worship rooted in Anglican liturgy, scripture, and thoughtful preaching.Plan a visit: https://www.stpetersbythesea.com

In this Kids Health Uncomplicated episode from Cincinnati Children's, host Dr. Patty Manning talks with general pediatrician Dr. Nick DeBlasio about what to expect with newborn sleep and feeding in the first 90 days. They normalize how difficult the newborn period is and discuss common concerns that are often normal, including spitting up (usually a “laundry problem”) and wide variation in stooling patterns, while emphasizing that adequate wet diapers and weight gain are key signs a baby is getting enough. They share practical sleep expectations, tips for day/night confusion, and the value of splitting nighttime duties and accepting help. Red flags include forceful vomiting, poor weight gain, fewer wet diapers, back-arching with spit-up, bloody stools, and excessive sleepiness or difficulty arousing. They also caution against data-overload tracking and close with myths and facts about sleeping through the night and feeding cues.

Pediatric acupuncturist Kenna Bouvet, founder of Earth and Sky Massage and Acupuncture, joins us to explore what acupuncture and bodywork can look like for babies and kids, far beyond the stereotype of “needles in little bodies.” She shares how her own childhood digestive issues and dance injuries led her to acupuncture, and how that journey now informs her work with families navigating colic, feeding difficulties, constipation, respiratory issues, and chronic stress. Kenna also reflects on her time in the pediatric oncology and bone marrow transplant units at Columbia Medical Center, where she treated children and supported entire families through high‑stress hospital stays.We dive into pediatric Tui Na (Chinese medical massage for kids) and Shonishin, a Japanese non‑needling technique that uses gentle stroking and tapping tools to support infants with feeding challenges, tension from birth, colic, latch issues, and digestive or respiratory concerns. Kenna explains why she rarely needles at a first visit, how she lets kids lead the session, and how she teaches parents simple, realistic touch‑based tools they can actually use at home. The conversation also highlights cultural traditions of baby massage and the shared language of Qi and prana, emphasizing touch, agency, and connection as central to healing in the perinatal and pediatric period.Connect with Kenna: earthskylic.comTeachers she mentioned:Program manager of the Integrative Therapies Program at Columbia medical - Michelle Bombacie For NYC pediatric acupuncture training - JingShen Pediatrics with Moshe Heller and Stephen CowanUK pediatric acupuncture teacher - Rebecca Avern Shonishin - Thomas Wernicke Click here and use your exclusive 20% listener discount (Code: Fit20) to enroll in Master Your Pelvic Floor, our signature self-paced course that will change the way you understand and care for your body.

Welcome back to the Alt Goes Mainstream podcast.We sat down with Kyle Kniffen, Managing Director, Global Head of Alternatives, Third Party Wealth at Goldman Sachs. We were live from Berlin, which becomes the “capital of private capital” in June as private equity industry leaders make the annual pilgrimage to the city for one of the marquee private equity conferences, SuperReturn Berlin.With Prosek Partners and former Bloomberg TV journalist Deirdre Bolton as my producer, along with her team, we took over a Tiny Space cabin to hold big conversations with some of the industry's leading alternative asset managers.A little over two years ago, I wrote on AGM about how, at $456B in AUM in alternatives, Goldman Sachs was a “sleeping giant” in private markets. In reality, Goldman is anything but a sleeping giant in private markets, having started its private equity business in 1984 and earning the distinction of being a top-5 alternatives manager by AUM across both traditional and alternative asset managers.Today, Goldman has grown its alternatives business to over $625B in AUM.The firm has expanded its platform with the acquisition of Industry Ventures and a partnership with T. Rowe Price to deliver public and private markets solutions to the wealth channel, and, most recently, the creation of its Alternative Investment Platform to provide HNW clients with direct access to private companies.The evolution of Goldman's Alternatives business reflects a thoughtful, measured approach to understanding the needs of wealth channel investors and finding the utility and purpose of strategy, product, and product structure.That was much of the focus of the conversation Kyle and I had in Berlin. We discussed the objective and utility of private markets in a portfolio. We covered:The growth of evergreen funds.Why evergreens are the product structure of choice.Why are evergreens also appealing to institutional allocators, insurance companies, and UHNW investors?How GPs and LPs are approaching LP composition to evergreen vehicles.The next wave of product innovation.The build, buy, partner framework Why Goldman is so excited about the GeoWealth partnership and what the future of model portfolios look like.What is not known but should be known about the Goldman Alternatives franchise.BioKyle Kniffen is a managing director in the Client Solutions Group within Goldman Sachs Asset Management. He serves as global head of Alternatives for Third Party Wealth (TPW), overseeing client strategy for the firm's TPW clients globally, delivering the power of the Alternatives investing platform to a broad set of individual investors through our partnerships with financial intermediary clients and their advisors, including Private Banks, Broker-Dealers, RIAs and other distribution platforms. Kyle partners closely with leadership across our Alternatives franchise to develop products that meet our clients' evolving needs. He is also co-chair of the AWM Global Distribution Working Group.Prior to this role, Kyle was in Alternative Capital Markets (ACM), serving as head of ACM for Goldman Sachs Ayco and leading coverage for One Goldman Sachs financial sponsors globally. He joined Goldman Sachs in 2018 as a vice president in ACM and was named managing director in 2021.Prior to joining Goldman Sachs, Kyle led a variety of distribution and product management teams for Bank of America's Alternative Investment Group within their Global Wealth and Investment Management division.Kyle is a board member for the Institute of Portfolio Alternatives (IPA), and a member of The Economic Club of New York. Kyle earned a BA from Gettysburg College.Thanks, Kyle, for sharing your wisdom, expertise, and passion about private markets and serving the wealth channel.Show Notes00:00 AGM Live from SuperReturn Berlin00:22 Meet Kyle Kniffin01:10 Wealth Meets Private Markets01:37 Big Pools Little Allocation02:24 Alt Strategies Explosion03:04 Lessons from Hedge Funds03:34 Start with Client Goals03:53 Risk Liquidity Tradeoffs04:10 Portfolio Utility First04:25 Holistic Private Markets04:44 Fit and Terms Matter05:07 Setting Expectations05:32 Product Innovation Shift05:52 Evergreens and Flexibility06:10 Monthly Access and Tactics06:39 Evergreen Growth Rates06:45 Education and Dispersion07:15 Why Evergreens Exist07:41 Diversification Lower Minimums08:04 Operational Simplicity08:21 Evergreen Nuance Phase One08:47 Goldman in Third Party Wealth09:26 Institutions Buying Evergreens10:31 LP Mix and Liquidity Caps11:36 Institutionalizing Wealth Platforms13:29 Goldman Platform Advantage14:46 Feeding the Evergreen Engine15:13 GeoWealth and Model Portfolios15:45 T Rowe Price Collaboration16:12 Build vs Buy Partner Balance16:42 Industry Ventures Acquisition17:33 Goldman Alts Heritage18:35 Pioneering GP Stakes19:45 Secondaries Since 199820:12 Apex of Private Markets21:08 Will Secondaries Be Core21:48 Max Flexibility for Wealth22:42 Customization vs Scale23:16 Flagships Then Bespoke23:49 Lessons from Private Wealth25:10 Broader Menu of Privates25:34 Closing Thoughts 

On this episode, Ian Ross, Partner at Concentric Equity Partners, discusses how being a family backed private investment firm changes the economics of lower middle market investing. Learn why fund-cycle pressure pushes firms to sell their best companies early, and how removing that pressure supports a feed-the-winners strategy that keeps reinvesting in businesses as they grow, using growth, multiple arbitrage and leverage to build enterprise value along the way.Hear how portfolio companies can weigh short-term EBITDA dips against long-term payoff, why customer acquisition cost and lifetime value apply just as much to services businesses as SaaS, and how leadership teams can navigate AI-driven shifts in marketing and go-to-market strategy by building the trust needed to try new approaches with management.The information contained in this podcast is not intended to constitute, and should not be construed as, investment advice.

This month on Feeding Traditions, host Mary Jane Arnette sits down with Ann Thomas Lowry, a young agricultural leader serving as Tennessee 4-H State Council Vice President and West Tennessee FFA State Vice President, for a conversation about leadership, service, and the future of agriculture.Raised on her family's row crop and livestock farm in West Tennessee, Ann Thomas shares how 4-H and FFA helped shape her passion for agriculture and prepared her to become an advocate for the industry. Throughout the episode, she reflects on the importance of stepping outside your comfort zone, serving others, and encouraging more young people to find their place in agriculture.Ann Thomas also discusses the opportunities that inspired her interest in agricultural law and policy, the role young leaders play in telling agriculture's story, and why she believes the future of the industry is bright. Her perspective is a reminder that leadership begins with a willingness to learn, serve, and speak up for the people and communities that make agriculture possible.Join us for a conversation about leadership, advocacy, and the next generation carrying agriculture forward.

In this episode of Maximize Your Hunt, host Jon Teater discusses the complexities of land management and hunting strategies. He shares insights from a recent master class, emphasizing the importance of understanding property design and management. The conversation transitions into soil management, nutrient balancing, and the benefits of seed treatments for better germination and plant health. The episode concludes with a discussion on breaking down residual materials to enhance soil health and nutrient availability. In this conversation, the Brad Harper and Jon Teater delve into the importance of enhancing soil biology for improved crop growth, effective management of switchgrass stands, and the significance of live biology in soil health. They also discuss the benefits of foliar applications for plant health, emphasizing the need for a holistic approach to agriculture that prioritizes both plant and soil health. Takeaways The involvement required to optimize a property is complex. Master classes can provide eye-opening insights into property management. A strong connection with your land enhances the management experience. Soil samples are valuable for determining nutrient needs. Seed treatments can significantly improve germination and plant health. Liquid biology seed treatments can enhance nutrient availability. Balancing soil nutrients can reduce costs and improve yields. Breaking down thatch layers is crucial for soil health. Biological products can speed up the decomposition of organic matter. Understanding soil biology is essential for effective land management. Adding decomposers can significantly speed up nutrient availability. Proper management of switchgrass is crucial for healthy stands. Live biology in soil can enhance crop growth and health. Foliar applications can provide nutrients directly to plants. Soil health is a slow process that requires consistent effort. Feeding existing soil biology can improve overall soil health. Using live bacteria can temporarily boost soil populations. Foliar feeding is effective regardless of soil conditions. Reducing reliance on traditional fertilizers can be beneficial. Understanding the source of soil products is essential for success.

When Jesus feeds five thousand people, is the greatest miracle the multiplication of bread... or the transformation of human hearts? John Kennedy and Elizabeth Garnsey explore one of Jesus' most familiar miracles through fresh eyes. They discuss abundance versus scarcity, the meaning of compassion, connections to Moses and the Eucharist, and what this story reveals about the Kingdom of God. Whether you've heard this Gospel a hundred times or are encountering it for the first time, you'll discover new ways to think about generosity, trust, and what it means to truly be fed.Questions for Further DiscussionThemes & ApplicationThe conversation suggests that Jesus feeds more than empty stomachs. In what ways are people spiritually hungry today, and how does Christ continue to nourish them?How does the image of Jesus' compassion, literally "his heart going out" to the crowd, reshape your understanding of God's character?The discussion connects this miracle to the Eucharist. How does Holy Communion deepen your understanding of this Gospel story?Personal Reflection QuestionsWhat does it mean to live from a mindset of abundance rather than scarcity? Where do you most often find yourself slipping into scarcity thinking? Where in your life do you feel spiritually hungry right now?The disciples only had five loaves and two fish, yet Jesus used what they offered. What small gift, talent, or opportunity in your life might God be able to use in ways you cannot yet imagine? What fears make it difficult for you to share your time, resources, compassion, or attention with others?What would it look like this week to let your heart become more like Christ's, moved by compassion before judgment or convenience?Broader Spiritual ConsiderationsThe clergy suggest that the Kingdom of God moves humanity beyond a simple "winner versus loser" way of living. Where do you see signs of that Kingdom already emerging in today's world?The Feeding of the Five Thousand echoes Israel's story of manna in the wilderness and points ahead to the Eucharist. Why do you think Scripture so often uses meals to reveal who God is?If compassion is at the heart of Jesus' ministry, what might it mean for the Church to become known first and foremost for compassion rather than ideology, certainty, or institutional success?Learn more about St. Mark's at https://www.stmarksnewcanaan.org

On this episode of True Foundation, we confront a deeply important and thought-provoking question: If we are a Christian nation, why do we still face so many broken systems, struggles, and injustices? This conversation challenges us to look beyond labels and examine what we truly live out versus what we claim to believe. Are we aligning our actions with our faith? Grounded in scripture, we explore what God actually calls us to do: Isaiah 58:6-7 – True fasting is about loosening chains of injustice and caring for the oppressed Matthew 6:33 – Seek first the Kingdom and His righteousness James 2:15-17 – Faith without works is dead Proverbs 14:31 – Honoring God by caring for those in need Matthew 25:35-36 – Feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, caring for the sick Luke 10:33-35 – The Good Samaritan: compassion in action Isaiah 58:10 – Pour yourself out for the hungry and afflicted Proverbs 22:9 – Blessing comes from generosity This isn't about condemnation—it's about accountability, reflection, and returning to the true foundation of faith: love, justice, service, and obedience. Are we just claiming Christianity… or actually living it? #TrueFoundation #FaithInAction #BiblicalTruth #ChristianLiving #FaithAndWorks #ServeOthers #KingdomMindset #ONVShows #TruthTalk #WalkTheWord

In this episode, we take a calm, thoughtful look at the latest James Webb Space Telescope headlines revealing an early universe far busier and more interconnected than scientists once imagined. We explore groundbreaking discoveries including:

Your yogurt has more sugar in it than a candy bar.I am not saying that to be dramatic. Go pull one out of your fridge and turn it around. I will wait.This is the episode where we find out why you crave sugar every single afternoon even though you swear you barely eat any. And the answer is not willpower, and it is not that something is wrong with you. It is that half the food you have been buying on purpose, because you believed it was the healthy choice, is quietly spiking your blood sugar and setting up the crash that sends you into the pantry at three o'clock.You are not imagining it. That afternoon craving is physical. Your body is genuinely asking you for something, and no amount of white knuckling is going to win that argument, because you are showing up to the fight hours too late.I ate that way for years and blamed myself for every bit of it, until I found out what was actually in my breakfast.Inside: what is really happening in your body between breakfast and that three o'clock desperation, where the sugar is hiding in the foods you thought were the healthy choice, whether fruit counts, and the one change to make tomorrow morning that most women feel by that same afternoon.You were never weak. You were on a rollercoaster nobody told you about.When you are ready to get off that rollercoaster for good, the Thin Adapted System will walk you through it, step by step.

Backyard gardens flush with cucumbers, tomatoes, and peppers where bees buzz and chickens scratch. Beyond, a forest filled with blackberries and jewelweed. Inspired by childhood memories of his grandmother's overflowing backyard garden, author Andrew Flachs has embarked on a multi-continent, decades-long look at agriculture and its value. The dominant view of agriculture has focused only on what we produce. It sees value in terms of capital gains or yield efficiency, masking how our global food system produces tremendous amounts of food commodities while failing to feed people, support rural communities, or enhance ecological well-being. Feeding the World as if People Mattered: How Small Farms Produce Value Beyond Yields (University of Arizona Press, 2026) asks us to look more deeply and more humanely at what we perceive to be most valuable in our agricultural systems. This book draws on fifteen years of anthropological research, taking readers to fields in South India, Eastern Europe, and North America, where people are already feeding the future amid global change. From these fields, Flachs shows us how a radical rethinking of the value of small farms and farmers is already happening. Bringing together conversations in agriculture, economics, anthropology, and the environmental humanities, Flachs deftly shows how small farms reproduce social and ecological relationships that are the only sustainable path forward. For anyone who is curious about the food on their plate and the people who helped to get it there, Feeding the World as if People Mattered will offer a new way to find value in the food we grow and the people who grow it. Dr. Andrew Flachs researches food and agriculture systems, exploring genetically modified crops, heirloom seeds, and our own microbiomes. Born and raised in rural Pennsylvania, he graduated from Oberlin College with dual Bachelor of Music and Bachelor of Arts degrees in 2010. He earned his PhD from Washington University in St. Louis in April 2016 and was a 2016-2017 Volkswagen Exchange Postdoctoral Research Fellow with the Heidelberg University Karl Jaspers Centre for Advanced Transcultural Studies. He is currently an associate professor of anthropology at Purdue University. His work among farmers in North America, the Balkans, and South India investigates ecological knowledge and technological change in agricultural systems spanning Cleveland urban gardens and Indian GM cotton fields. His research has been supported by public and private institutions including the Department of Education, the National Geographic Society, the American Institute of Indian Studies, and the Social Science Research Council, while his writing on agricultural development has been featured in numerous peer-reviewed publications as well as public venues including Sapiens, Salon, and the National Geographic magazine. His work has been recognized by eight international awards, including most recently as a finalist for the Society for Economic Anthropology Kate Browne Creativity in Research Award and the International Convention of Asia Scholars' Book Prize.

The Human Element Advantage: Driving Authentic Conversion and Algorithmic Visibility with Liz MbwamboIn a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur Podcast, host Josh Elledge sat down with Liz Mbwambo, the Founder and CEO of Upwynn Marketing, to examine the shifting operational mechanics required for service-based businesses to maintain market dominance in an AI-saturated ecosystem. Liz, a veteran agency leader and strategic marketer, details how traditional local service providers—from legal practices and home services contractors to regional suppliers—can cut through automated digital noise by pairing human-centric content with advanced data-gathering tech. This conversation delivers an intentional marketing playbook for business owners looking to optimize their conversion funnels, leverage first-party conversational data, shoot authentic founder-led video, and future-proof their brand visibility against changing search engine algorithms.The Search Engine Transformation: Utilizing First-Party Data and Founder Authenticity to Capture Market ShareThe rapid proliferation of generic, low-effort AI content generators has created a noisy digital marketplace where prospective clients actively tune out polished sales pitches and sterile corporate messaging. Liz Mbwambo explains that despite technological advances in ad distribution and generative copy, the fundamental psychology of marketing remains unchanged: consumers purchase services based on trust, personal connection, and perceived authority. To differentiate a company from automated competitors, founders must step in front of the camera to deliver unscripted, conversational video content that directly answers real customer questions. Capturing spontaneous insights—even from a smartphone at a desk or in a vehicle immediately following a client call—builds immediate psychological rapport and establishes an authentic authority profile that polished corporate commercials simply cannot replicate.To maximize the return on marketing spend and streamline backend content production, scaling enterprises must utilize artificial intelligence as a strategic listening tool rather than a generic text generator. By recording and transcribing every inbound sales call, client onboarding session, and internal team review, an agency or business owner can collect rich first-party data that exposes the exact language, objections, and pain points of their target market. Feeding these unstructured transcripts into advanced AI engines allows leadership to analyze recurring customer queries and systematically generate highly targeted FAQ videos, blog articles, and social media clips. This data-driven approach aligns corporate messaging with natural conversational search patterns, ensuring the brand ranks prominently as search algorithms shift toward processing human, long-tail queries.Sustaining long-term local market dominance also requires service businesses to balance their digital inbound strategies with diversified media channels, including strategic podcasting and hyper-localized advertising. Hosting a niche corporate podcast enables a service provider to go beyond transactional product pitches, offering broader educational value that positions the firm as a trusted community pillar and industry authority. This multi-channel approach expands brand reach—such as targeting underserved demographics with tailored, bilingual content—while opening direct networking doors with local business partners and high-value prospective accounts. When an organization combines authentic founder-led video, automated first-party data analysis, and proactive multi-platform media distribution into a single marketing architecture, it removes administrative lead-generation friction, protects client acquisition margins, and predictably expands enterprise valuation.About Liz MbwamboLiz Mbwambo is the Founder and CEO of Upwynn Marketing, a prominent digital agency architect, and a seasoned growth strategist based in Orlando, Florida. Drawing from years of high-level corporate experience and a deep understanding of consumer psychology, Liz specializes in helping local, service-based businesses scale their market presence. She is a dedicated thought leader who focuses on helping plumbing, HVAC, legal, and trade contractors transition away from generic marketing tactics to build authentic, data-driven lead engines.About Upwynn MarketingUpwynn Marketing is an elite full-service digital marketing agency engineered to help small-to-mid-sized service enterprises streamline client acquisition and maximize brand authority. The agency specializes in delivering comprehensive local SEO audits, founder-led video strategy playbooks, first-party data transcription analysis, and omni-channel paid media management. Through tailored growth blueprints, educational resources, and personalized strategy sessions, Upwynn Marketing enables regional service providers to remove lead-generation bottlenecks and predictably command market share.Links Mentioned in This EpisodeUpwynn Marketing Official Website: upwynnmarketing.comLiz Mbwambo on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/lizmbwamboKey Episode HighlightsThe Authenticity Imperative: Why raw, founder-led video content recorded on a smartphone outperforms overly polished corporate marketing in an AI-saturated market.First-Party Conversational Mining: Utilizing AI transcription tools to analyze real client sales calls and extract high-converting FAQ content topics.Optimizing for Conversational Search: Structuring written and video content around natural human speech patterns to match evolving algorithmic search queries.Corporate Podcasting as a Growth Engine: Leveraging niche, educational podcasts to build community trust, serve diverse demographics, and open B2B networking channels.Balancing Omni-Channel Local Media: Integrating localized paid ad formats with organic SEO and traditional media to capture dominant regional market share.ConclusionThe conversation with Liz Mbwambo underscores that thriving in the modern marketing landscape requires an intentional balance of high-tech data collection and unscripted human connection. By standardizing internal content production around real customer conversations, embracing founder-led video, and leveraging first-party data, business leaders can transform a noisy, generic marketing footprint into a highly structured, self-sustaining client acquisition asset.More from The Thoughtful Entrepreneur

What if one of the greatest gifts we can give a baby in the NICU isn't something we give to the baby at all—but something we give to their parents?In this episode of the Empowering NICU Parents Podcast, host Nicole Nyberg, MSN, APRN, NNP-BC, is joined by Lisa Kleinz, MA, CCC-SLP, Director of Education at Dr. Brown's Medical, and former NICU parent Liz Barker for an inspiring conversation about the Infant-Driven Feeding® (IDF) Program and how it transforms the NICU experience for babies, families, and care teams.While feeding is at the center of the discussion, this episode is about so much more than breastfeeding or bottles. Lisa explains how the Infant-Driven Feeding® Program is an evidence-based, family-centered developmental care approach that teaches parents and clinicians to recognize and respond to each baby's unique cues, creating positive feeding experiences while promoting safer feeding practices, stronger parent-infant relationships, and improved outcomes.Liz shares the remarkable story of her daughter, Lucy, who was born at just 28 weeks' gestation. She candidly discusses the fear, guilt, and uncertainty she experienced as a NICU parent, and how one nurse's intentional teaching—supported by a family-centered unit culture—helped her move from feeling like an observer to becoming an active, confident caregiver. By learning Lucy's cues, participating in her care from the very beginning, and focusing on positive feeding experiences rather than volume alone, Liz not only gained confidence as a parent but also went on to exclusively breastfeed Lucy after her discharge from the NICU until she was two years old.Together, Nicole, Lisa, and Liz explore why intentionally educating and including parents from day one is one of the most powerful interventions in neonatal care—and why empowering parents ultimately benefits babies for a lifetime.In this episode, you'll learn:• Why the Infant-Driven Feeding® Program is about much more than feeding• How cue-based, developmental care creates safer feeding experiences• The importance of intentionally educating and empowering NICU parents• Why a shared Infant-Driven Feeding® Program language creates consistency, trust, and parent confidence• Why positive feeding experiences matter more than volume alone• The evidence behind family-centered, cue-based feeding—including improved breastfeeding outcomes, greater parent confidence, and positive developmental outcomes• One family's inspiring journey from uncertainty to confidenceThis episode is sponsored by Dr. Brown's Medical, whose Infant-Driven Feeding® Program is helping NICUs create positive feeding experiences by partnering with families, following each baby's cues, and supporting evidence-based, family-centered developmental care from hospital to home.Dr. Brown's Medical: https://www.drbrownsmedical.com  The Infant-Driven Feeding™ (IDF) Program: https://www.infantdrivenfeeding.com/ Our NICU Roadmap: A Comprehensive NICU Journal: https://empoweringnicuparents.com/nicujournal/  NICU Mama Hats: https://empoweringnicuparents.com/hats/  NICU Milestone Cards: https://empoweringnicuparents.com/nicuproducts/  Newborn Holiday Cards: https://empoweringnicuparents.com/shop/  Empowering NICU Parents Show Notes: https://empoweringnicuparents.com/shownotes/  Episode 82 Show Notes: https://empoweringnicuparents.com/episode82  Empowering NICU Parents Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/empoweringnicuparents/ Empowering NICU Parents FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/empoweringnicuparents  Pinterest Page: https://pin.it/36MJjmHThank you for listening to the Empowering NICU Parents Podcast.

This short podcast episode is Tyler Nelson's Bry-X presentation from the 7th Annual HVACR Training Symposium: Digital Tools and AI - "So Happy Together." Tyler is the Business Development Manager and Global Trainer at Sauermann Americas. Artificial intelligence (AI) is measured data, not an authority, and it will not replace techs. It may enhance technicians' abilities but must be used responsibly. AI operates on clear logic and supplies pattern recognition, what-if analysis, and decision support (but NOT decision ownership). The technician ultimately owns decision authority and technical judgment, but AI helps save time. Modern AI reinforces best practices, flags inconsistencies, and cross-references industry data, meaning it amplifies experience rather than replacing it. HVAC technicians' work depends on codes and standards, physics, and diagnostic cause and effect, which all have repeatable workflows; AI provides instant analysis and verification in those key areas. We already have a wealth of data from our tools and manufacturers' literature, and AI connects those to help us make decisions; technicians fear being incorrect or missing diagnostic factors, and AI can help us assimilate data by connecting data sources and ensuring that all angles are covered. It closes interpretation gaps and gives us the framework to make constructive decisions. measureQuick is an example of a diagnostic app that integrates AI in its workflows; it is leading the way in terms of digital tools and AI integration, and it gives technicians a lot of power in the field. Apps that use AI with digital tools help us navigate the industry as equipment becomes more complex, and they save time by making your work faster and more accurate. These tools come at a cost, but those costs can be spread across flat diagnostic fees and service agreements. Feeding readings from these apps into AI can also help you understand gaps in your own thinking and understand the relationships between the tools' readings and the field reality. AI can also take the data and provide technicians with scripts that are easy for customers to understand. If you give AI specific prompts and data, including images, equipment data, tool data, and commands to include or exclude certain sources (such as excluding crowdsourced information), you can learn a lot about the system in front of you. It can also help you interpret images or videos. These functions of the tool can help us question our own assumptions, expand our understanding of field problems, and vet our decisions.   Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?

Polymorket and Kalshi are feeding off the weak minded Heat fan. 7-20-2026

Charles Spicer explains that by late 1937, the Fellowship was being monitored by MI5 and penetrated by the NKVD. Soviet spy Kim Philby was even hired to manage the organization's PR, feeding information to Stalin, who feared an Anglo-German alliance against Russia. In November, Lord Halifax visited the Berghof. While he was appalled by Hitler's suggestion to shoot Indian protestors, the dictator successfully fooled Halifax into believing he did not want war. This meeting left the British cabinet with a dangerously false sense of security, as they prioritized Hitler's protestations over the warnings of amateur spies like Christie. (8)1938

On today's episode, I have a conversation with Steven Rofrano, founder of Ancient Crunch, to unpack the growing conversation around seed oils, processed foods, and how the modern food system impacts our health. Steven's childhood health struggles led him to question the foods most of us consume every day. Together we discuss why families are rethinking processed foods, what seed oils are and why they became so prevalent in America, and the contrast between American food culture and more traditional approaches found in Europe. We also talk about paying attention to how food makes you feel instead of accepting poor health as normal. Steven and I encourage you not to get overwhelmed by every new health trend, but to make thoughtful, sustainable changes that support long-term wellness. This episode offers practical encouragement to ask better questions about the food we consume every day.
