Holly Klaesner of FOCUS Marines Foundation joins the show to talk about the organization's mission of helping veterans transition to civilian life. Founded by Marines, the program runs four times a year at a private farm near Augusta, Missouri, providing seven days of support to veterans from all branches. The conversation covers the challenges of PTSD, divorce, family trauma, and finding purpose after military service. Upcoming events include a live broadcast in Eureka on September 11, the Unforgettable Ride fundraiser for Alzheimer's on September 26 in Wentzville, and a new “History of the Lou with Sue” radio segment on automobile history.
Work has been part of God’s design for humanity since the very beginning. Genesis 2:15 reminds us that the Lord placed Adam in the Garden of Eden “to work it and take care of it.” Even though the Fall introduced toil, frustration, and hardship into our labor, God still uses our work to shape us, bless us, and draw us closer to Him. If you’ve ever wrestled with the Monday morning blues or felt like your job was mundane and meaningless, this prayer is for you. God calls us to shift our perspective—from working for human approval to working as though serving Him directly. When we resist complaining, guard our hearts from pride, and dedicate our daily efforts to His glory, even the simplest of tasks become meaningful. Main Takeaways Work was created by God as a gift, not as punishment. True satisfaction in labor comes from serving God, not seeking human recognition. Scripture encourages us to see our jobs as opportunities to glorify the Lord (Colossians 3:23, Ephesians 6:7). A faithful heart at work can transform even ordinary responsibilities into acts of worship. Bible Verse References Genesis 2:15 – God placed Adam in the Garden to work and care for it. Philippians 2:14 – Do everything without grumbling or arguing. Colossians 3:23 – Work as if working for the Lord, not human masters. Ephesians 6:7 – Serve wholeheartedly as if serving God. 1 Peter 4:11 – Use your gifts to bring praise to God. 1 Corinthians 10:31 – Whatever you do, do it all for God’s glory. 2 Timothy 2:15 – Do your best to present yourself approved to God.

Our guest in this episode is Jem Fuller, a leadership and culture coach and author from the beautiful Bells Beach, Victoria. For over a decade, Jem has been guiding people on profound journeys, both literally to the Himalayas and metaphorically inward, to help them build frameworks for genuine connection and purpose.In our wonderful chat, Jem shares his evolved mission to combat the modern malady of disconnection. We explore his powerful concept of finding your "4% genius zone" and his unique, optimistic view on using AI as a tool to give us back the time for what truly matters: our human relationships. Key points discussed include:* Find your 4% genius zone by courageously focusing on what you love and do best.* True fulfillment comes from stripping away the noise and reconnecting with yourself, others, and a greater purpose.* In the age of AI, our human imperfection and shared felt experiences become our most valuable assets.Listen to the podcast to find out more.Innovabiz Substack is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Show Notes from this episode with Jem FullerIt was an absolute delight to welcome Jem Fuller, leadership coach and philosopher-guide, back to the Innovabuzz podcast for his third visit. It's been nine years since our first chat, and in that time, Jem's mission has deepened in the most remarkable ways. He continues to explore the frameworks that allow us to truly connect with ourselves and others, but now he's applying that wisdom to some of the biggest questions of our time, from finding our true purpose to navigating the age of AI with our humanity intact.Our conversation was a powerful reminder that the journey inward is the most important one we can take. Jem shared his own evolution, driven by a global community of peers who challenged him to crystallize his work down to its most potent essence. It's a journey that has led him to create profound, life-altering experiences for others while building a philanthropic legacy aimed at creating waves of positive change in the world.Finding Your 4%: The Courage to Live in Your Genius ZoneOne of the most profound ideas Jem shared was the concept of finding your "4%." He explained the well-known 80/20 rule, but then challenged us to take it a step further: apply the rule to that potent 20% to discover the 4% of your work that is truly your genius. This is the space where you deliver the most value, the work you truly love, and where time seems to disappear because you're in a state of flow.But this isn't just a productivity hack; it's an act of courage. It requires us to consciously cut out the noise and the tasks that drain us, even if they feel important, to build a life where we spend most of our time in that genius zone. For Jem, this meant redesigning his entire approach to his work, leading to a model that creates immense impact not just for his clients, but for communities in need.The Himalayan Journey: Stripping Away the Layers to Find MeaningNowhere is this focus more evident than in Jem's redesigned Himalayan program. He shared the powerful narrative of this journey, which consciously guides clients from a world of opulence and all the stuff money can buy, to the raw, humbling simplicity of the remote mountains. Guests start in the finest hotels and end up drinking chai in a slum, invited as guests, not tourists. This process is a careful, deliberate stripping away of the external layers we all carry.By peeling back the noise, the distractions, and the societal definitions of success, the program creates a space for people to ask the biggest questions: Who am I beneath all these roles? And why am I here? It's a journey that culminates not in a simple return to normal life, but in a rebuilt foundation where inner peace and a passion for meaningful contribution become the new true north.Our Great Disconnection: The Path Back to Ourselves and Each OtherAt the heart of Jem's philosophy is a diagnosis of our modern malady: disconnection. He believes we have become disconnected from each other, from ourselves, and from the reality that we are all intrinsically part of the same greater system. We're pushed apart by algorithms and distracted by the busyness of life, forgetting that we have far more in common than we have in difference.The antidote, Jem suggests, is to consciously remember and reinvest in connection. This involves reconnecting with the essence of who we are, deepening our bonds with other humans, and finding a sense of purpose that extends beyond ourselves. It's a simple truth, yet profoundly challenging in a world that constantly pulls our attention elsewhere.The Midwifery of AI: Nurturing Technology to Reclaim Our TimeIn a fascinating turn, Jem applies this philosophy of connection to the rise of Artificial Intelligence. As a self-proclaimed "default optimist," he sees incredible potential in AI, not as a replacement for humanity, but as a tool to restore it. He shared the beautiful metaphor of our role being the "midwifery of this emerging intelligence," suggesting we have a responsibility to nurture it with integrity, compassion, and care.Jem's hope is that AI will give us back the gift of time by handling the tasks that consume our days. If we are conscious and clever enough, he argues, we can reinvest that reclaimed time where it matters most: in our human-to-human relationships. Imagine having the space to grab a coffee with a colleague, not to talk about work, but to simply ask, "How are you?"The Value of Our Imperfection: Why Humanity is Our Greatest AssetThis led to one of the most beautiful points of our conversation. As AI becomes more "perfect," Jem argues that our human imperfections will become our most valuable asset. The moments when our voice trembles during a tough conversation, when we stumble over our words, or when we sit in shared empathy with another person—these are the things AI can never replicate.This shared felt experience is uniquely human. The ability to feel awe at a rainbow, to create art through blood, sweat, and tears, or to offer compassion to another are the cornerstones of our relevance. It's a powerful reframe that urges us to lean into our messy, beautiful humanity rather than chase an impossible standard of perfection.A Simple Invitation: The Transformative Power of the PauseTo bring these big ideas into our daily lives, Jem left us with a wonderfully simple and actionable step. He invites us to take a sticky note, write the word "Pause," and place it next to an existing daily habit, like our coffee machine. When you see the note, simply pause. Take three deep breaths before you continue with your task.This tiny ritual is an invitation to create a small pocket of presence in your day. Over time, the habit becomes ingrained, and the pause becomes a natural moment to reconnect with yourself. It's a reminder that the journey to greater connection and meaning doesn't have to start with a grand gesture; it can begin with a single, conscious breath.In Summary: My conversation with Jem Fuller was a masterclass in conscious living. His message is a powerful call to action: find the courage to focus on your true genius, strip away the noise to reconnect with what matters, and embrace technology not as an escape, but as a bridge back to our shared humanity. By cherishing our imperfections and creating moments of pause, we can begin to build a more connected and meaningful life, one breath at a time.The Buzz - Our Innovation RoundHere are Jem's answers to the questions of our innovation round. Listen to the conversation to get the full scoop.* Most innovative use of AI to enhance human relationships – Building an executive team of AIs to handle strategy, explicitly to give humans more time for their relationships.* Best thing to integrate AI and human connection – Consciously training his AI assistant to prompt him to switch off his computer and connect with real people.* Differentiate by leveraging AI – Do the things AI can't, like handwriting a Christmas card or picking up the phone to personally celebrate someone.ActionGet a sticky note and write the word "Pause" on it. Stick it next to an existing daily habit, like your coffee machine, and when you see it, take three breaths before you continue.Reach OutYou can reach out and thank Jem on his website, JemFuller.com, or directly via email at jem@jemfuller.com.

Clinical research physician Khutaija Noor discusses her article, "Why clinical research is a powerful path for unmatched IMGs." She addresses the intense pressure and profound disappointment International Medical Graduates (IMGs) face when they go unmatched for a residency spot in the U.S. Drawing from her own experience, Khutaija reframes this perceived setback as an opportunity, detailing her pivot into the world of clinical research. She challenges the outdated view of research as a non-clinical detour, describing her hands-on role as a clinical trial lead where she serves as an advocate and primary medical contact for vulnerable patients. Khutaija highlights the immense purpose found in contributing to pivotal studies for new treatments, arguing that clinical research is not a consolation prize but a powerful and rewarding field. She offers an empowering message for all IMGs facing uncertainty: Your skills are desperately needed in medical innovation, and your journey is far from over.

You know that feeling when you look around at your life and think, "This isn't what I pictured at all"?Maybe you imagined climbing the corporate ladder while being the Pinterest-perfect mom. Or maybe you thought you'd have more control over how things turned out. But here you are—juggling a demanding job, feeling guilty about missing bedtime stories, and wondering if this chaos is just "your season" or if there's actually a way through it.Andrea Nanigian gets it. She went from successful corporate executive to full-time caregiver overnight when her son developed severe OCD. Twelve years later, she's not just surviving—she's thriving and helping other parents do the same through her podcast "This Way Up."Here's what you'll walk away with:
It is easy to feel lost and hopeless in a world that feels increasingly divided. This past week had been particularly weighted and the collective suffering is apparent.

For five weeks after Oct. 7, 2023, the two sons of Canadian Israeli peace activist Vivian Silver thought she was among the hostages from Kibbutz Be'eri who had been kidnapped into Gaza by Hamas terrorists. But after her house was destroyed that day, and they received no further word about her fate, her sons Chen, an archeologist based in Connecticut, and Yonatan, an Israeli social worker, threw themselves into campaigning for their mother's release, while also channelling her spirit in advocating for a non-violent solution to the war. In late November 2023, Israeli forensic experts notified Silver's family that her remains had been identified in the rubble of her burned-out kibbutz neighbourhood. She had been killed on the first day of the attack. Growing up, they had watched their mother's tireless efforts to build bridges between Jews and Palestinians, while they pursued their own, different lives and career paths. Now, as the two-year anniversary of their mother's murder approaches, Vivian Silver's sons are still mourning their mother, but also curating her legacy as “Vivian”, an internationally-renowned political anti-war symbol. On today's episode of The CJN's newly-rebranded North Star podcast (formerly The CJN Daily), host Ellin Bessner sits down with Chen and Yonatan Zeigen to explore how having a purpose helps with their grief, rather than seeking vengeance for past trauma.

Power can be rapidly stripped away from individuals, or it can be taken away layer by layer. Not everyone makes it out of a cult, but life can become particularly meaningful when they do. A new purpose can arise for the person, more substantial than the grasp of mind control. Leaving an authoritarian cult is the experience that Dr. Debbie Haski-Leventhal, PhD, shared with us on this episode of Cult Conversations: The Influence Continuum. She found this meaning after a period of healing and self-exploration when she left the Kabbalah Centre. Her parents brought her into it when she was only five years old. She devoted her life to it as a chevre (hand-picked servants of Philip and Karen Berg, its leaders). She was able to escape by age nineteen. Debbie currently describes her role as “a professor of purpose and impact”, working with individuals and companies to make lives more meaningful. She crafted her book after decades of exploring what pro-social and satisfying behaviors bring to life. Her book is both inspirational and practical, laying out pointers from the model she developed. She believes strongly in Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and works with business leaders to better utilize their human resources into meaning on both an individual and group basis. I must say, I loved this book, listened to it as an audiobook, and then bought it as a paperback and read it. It is a must-read book, in my opinion, for all survivors of mind control cults. It is an inspiration! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
In this episode of The Compelled Podcast, Emma Mae McDaniel shares a message about faith, patience, and trusting God's timing. Reflecting on her husband's excitement to give gifts early, she draws a parallel to how we often want God's promises to unfold immediately, even though His plans take time. Using the story of David from 1 Samuel 16, she highlights how David was anointed as king but had to wait about 15 years before stepping into that role, enduring hardships that strengthened his character and faith. Emma relates this to her own journey of waiting years for a book deal, emphasizing how seasons of waiting are not wasted but are opportunities for growth and preparation. She encourages listeners to remember God's faithfulness, trust in His timing, and remain steadfast, knowing that even when progress isn't visible, God is always working for His glory and our good.
