Chris and Mike are back with a wide-ranging sports conversation that starts on football's biggest stage and ends with draft boards, NBA speculation and the future of sports broadcasting.They open with a look back at the Super Bowl, focusing on what makes a championship defense truly dominant. From relentless pressure up front to disciplined coverage on the back end, they break down how elite defenses still win titles in an era built around quarterbacks and high-scoring offenses. The discussion naturally turns to the evolution of the position and what it takes for young quarterbacks to thrive in today's NFL. Baker Mayfield becomes part of that conversation — not just as a player, but as a symbol of how quickly narratives can change in this league.From there, the spotlight shifts to the AFC and how competitive the conference has become. The Patriots are no longer the automatic measuring stick they once were, and roster turnover has changed the balance of power. Chris and Mike talk about what that means for teams trying to rise into contention and how quickly windows can open and close. They zero in on the Browns, examining their defensive needs and the importance of hitting on impact players in the draft. For a franchise trying to build sustained success, nailing those defensive selections could be the difference between playoff hope and legitimate contention.The NFL talk blends into a broader conversation about team-building philosophy. How much should you invest in defense versus offense? Can a dominant unit still carry a team in January? And what kind of prospect truly shifts a franchise's trajectory? Chris and Mike break it down with a practical lens, especially when it comes to Cleveland's long-term outlook.Then the energy pivots to the NBA. James Harden's impact on the Cavs becomes a hot topic — what his presence would mean stylistically, how it would change spacing and playmaking, and whether the move would represent a short-term push or a long-term gamble. They also revisit the ever-present question in Northeast Ohio sports: Could LeBron ever return to Cleveland? It's more than nostalgia. They discuss fit, timing, roster construction and what it would signal for the franchise if that door ever reopened.The Lakers enter the discussion as well, with a look at roster changes and how the Western Conference arms race continues to evolve. What works in today's NBA? Star power? Depth? Flexibility? The Cavs' situation is weighed against those broader league trends, creating a layered conversation about risk, chemistry and championship windows.The Olympics come up as well, particularly the broadcasting challenges in a fragmented media world. With streaming services reshaping how audiences consume sports, what does the future of major global events look like? They reflect on how viewing habits have shifted and how networks are adapting — or struggling to adapt — to a digital-first audience.If you enjoy thoughtful sports conversations that connect football, basketball, baseball and media trends, this episode is for you. Jump into the comments and let us know:– What's the Browns' biggest defensive need?– Would you want to see LeBron back in Cleveland?– Is James Harden the right fit for the Cavs?– And how do you watch the Olympics now compared to a decade ago?Thanks for watching and listening.

Ryan dives deep into the Packers' salary cap situation, rolling up his sleeves with Spotrac's roster tool to map out Green Bay's 2026 financial picture move by move. The results? A lot more encouraging than the clickbait headlines suggest. The episode walks through major roster decisions including the frustrating Aaron Banks situation and his absurd $25 million cap hit, the tough but necessary release of Elton Jenkins, and a creative Josh Jacobs extension that buys flexibility now while setting up an exit later. Ryan also projects contract extensions for Christian Watson ($27M/year) and Tucker Craft ($16M/year), re-signs key free agents like Quay Walker, Kingsley Enagbare, and Emmanuel Wilson, and lands the roster at a healthy $23 million in cap space. Ryan also dismantles a widely-shared Yahoo Sports article ranking the Packers 25th in cap flexibility, explaining why "simple restructure capacity" is a nearly useless metric that tells fans almost nothing about actual financial health. The bigger takeaway: the NFL's ballooning salary cap is changing free agency forever, and smart teams should invest in the draft and trades rather than overpaying in a bloated market.

"It assumes everyone has the same body but no two people are going to perform both of those movements the same way, and it's not going to load the same way." "I start the majority of people with a box squat, because the way I think about a hinge is it's different from a squat because the hips are going to be moving more along that horizontal path." "It's way more useful to think, am I moving up and down? Am I moving side to side? And then just pick exercises within what a person has available." "If someone can't produce certain rotations, and I know that you need those rotations to do this movement, you probably got to find something else to train that pattern within their constraints." "You just have to find the hinge variation that they can execute. And if they don't have much to do that, you have to create constraints." About Zac Cupples Zac Cupples, PT, DPT, OCS, CSCS is a physical therapist, strength coach, and educator specializing in human movement, respiration, and performance optimization. He is the founder of ZacCupples.com and has become widely known for translating complex biomechanical and neurophysiological concepts into practical strategies that clinicians and coaches can immediately apply.

In this latest OIES podcast, from the Gas Programme, James Henderson talks to Katja Yafimava about her recent paper on the updated EU regulation covering gas storage.

In this conversation recorded at PTC Hawaii, JLL's Kristen Vosmaer and InfraPartners' George Teodorescu break down what is really separating winners from the rest in the AI data centre boom. Key takeaways: Time to first token = time to revenue. The faster a data centre goes live, the faster investors see returns - making speed a core financial metric. Power is the new battleground. Projects now live or die on energy access, with behind-the-meter generation, gas and even future nuclear options entering the mix. Capital is getting smarter - and more involved. Investors are moving from passive funding to hands-on strategic roles across the value chain. Off-site manufacturing is changing the game. Prefabrication cuts risk, labour pressure and delays, while improving cost certainty. Flexibility beats longevity. The era of 15-year static data centres is over, infrastructure must be modular, upgradeable and ready for rapid AI cycles. Partnerships are critical. No single player can deliver speed, power, funding and expertise alone. The biggest risks ahead? Monetising AI at scale, keeping up with power demand, and earning public trust as data centres become more visible - and political. Bottom line: In the AI era, success goes to those who can secure power, deploy fast, structure capital creatively, and turn infrastructure into revenue, quickly.

Biomechanist Katy Bowman and biologist Dr. Jeannette Loram explore the prevalence and underlying causes of knee issues, from popping and noisy knees to everyday pain and osteoarthritis. The knee is not just a simple hinge, and Katy explains its anatomy using a helpful “cube” model that includes bones, ligaments, cartilage, and the meniscus. Together, they clarify the difference between osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis and examine how movement patterns influence the forces and loads placed across the knee joint. Katy and Jeannette share practical strategies for changing knee loading through gait retraining, along with tools to improve muscle strength, stability, and proprioception to help protect ligaments and cartilage. They also discuss why women tend to experience more knee problems due to hormonal and biomechanical factors, and why prehab and post-surgery exercise training play a critical role in achieving better outcomes after knee surgery.Enhanced Show Notes and Full Transcript 00:00 Introduction: The prevalence of knee issues and arthritis 02:00 Why movement and position matter for knee health 04:08 Sponsors: The Dynamic Collective 05:58 The knee as a “cube,” not just a hinge 10:58 Ligaments vs muscles: Why ligaments are seat belts, not brakes 14:20 Cartilage and the knee meniscus: Function and damage 18:00 Changing movement patterns for knee pain: Gait retraining 24:21 Noisy knees explained 26:22 Knee instability: Strength, proprioception, and hypermobility 33:07 Listener question: Why do women have more knee issues?

Send a textBuilding Financial Flexibility Beyond Retirement AccountsIn this episode of 'The Retire Early Retire Now' podcast, Hunter Kelly, a certified financial planner and founder of Palm Valley Wealth Management, discusses the often-overlooked concept of financial flexibility outside retirement accounts. He explores the pitfalls that high-income earners face when all their wealth is locked up in inaccessible retirement accounts, stressing the importance of flexible funds for life's unplanned changes. Hunter delves into reasons why building financial flexibility is challenging, such as lack of incentives, emotional resistance, and the delayed validation of non-retirement savings. He introduces the three-bucket framework: spending for today, saving for retirement, and flexibility for life transitions. Practical advice is given on how to start building a flexibility bucket, including mindset shifts and gradual, consistent investment strategies. Listeners are encouraged to evaluate their financial plans to ensure a balance between long-term security and real-life optionality.00:00 Introduction to Financial Flexibility00:47 The Trap of Inaccessible Wealth01:58 Why Retirement Accounts Dominate03:34 The Importance of Financial Flexibility04:58 Challenges in Building Flexibility08:11 The Three Bucket Framework09:31 Mindset Shifts for Flexibility13:38 Self-Check and ConclusionCheck out the Palm Valley Wealth Management WebsitePalmValleywm.comCheck us out on InstagramLinkedIn FacebookListen to the Podcast Here!

Building A Boutique Events Agency As A MomA single decision can change the way you work, parent, and lead. When Sarah realized staying in a comfortable role was dimming her optimism, she chose the unknown—and co-founded The Parts Department, a boutique events agency designed for impact, not bloat. We get candid about what it really takes to build a modern experiential marketing shop, from value-first delivery to relationship-led growth and the courage required to quit without a safety net.I loved hearing how Sarah's career at Periscope and Advocate shaped her point of view on events: people love brands that love them back. That belief anchors their niche—high-touch experiential strategies that actually move the needle. We unpack their two modes of working—embedding with teams on retainer or owning projects end to end—and why a lean model beats the old habit of filling rooms with extra bodies. You'll also hear the realities of client outreach on LinkedIn, using relevance over hard sell, and why most early wins come from trust that's been earned over years.There's a deeply human thread here, too. The London chapter—navigating a foreign city with a one- and two-year-old—reshaped how Sarah thinks about fulfillment. She talks about “buckets” that need filling: work, motherhood, movement, community. Flexibility isn't a perk; it's a system. A 9:45 a.m. Friday hockey game becomes proof that work can bend around life when partners trust each other. And yes, we talk about women leading in an industry that once looked like Mad Men, and how kindness as a business practice never goes out of style.If you're building a brand, leading marketing, or figuring out your next bold move, this conversation offers practical playbooks and real encouragement.

Flexibility has a branding problem.In Episode 3 of Return to Office, Nicole North and Paula Manolakakis unpack one of the most misunderstood concepts in today's workplace: flexibility.Many leaders worry that flexibility means chaos, lower standards, or loss of accountability. Employees, on the other hand, experience the opposite problem: unclear boundaries, “always on” expectations, and burnout disguised as autonomy.This episode explores how flexibility and boundaries actually work together to protect energy, motivation, and trust during return to office.We talk about:Why boundaries are essential for performance, not a barrier to itThe difference between flexibility and inconsistencyHow “always available” cultures quietly drive burnoutWhat healthy flexibility actually looks like in practiceThis conversation is for leaders who want to offer autonomy without losing accountability, and for teams trying to navigate new expectations without burning out.Because flexibility without boundaries isn't empowering, it's exhausting.

Instead, she's leaning into flexibility, planning ahead just enough, and fitting training around work deadlines, family life, and the occasional much-needed sleep-in ☕️ We chat about: • Starting strength training again (and those early “is-this-an-injury?” niggles

In this episode of the Uncommon Wealth Podcast, Phillip Ramsey dives into the integral part of business success that many overlook—tracking and analyzing business numbers. Phillip opens the episode with insights into how too many entrepreneurs shy away from the seemingly mundane yet essential task of understanding their business metrics. With a background rooted in disciplined financial practices from his pharmaceutical days under mentor Mark Johnson, Phillip illustrates the power of routine number tracking.The episode sheds light on the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS), a transformational framework for business management praised by Phillip. He shares his personal journey of utilizing this system to keep tabs on key financial metrics such as revenue and expenses. SEO keywords peppered through the discussion include "business metrics," "financial tracking," and "Entrepreneurial Operating System," underscoring their importance in pursuing a unique business path. Phillip emphasizes the value of consistent number tracking, noting its critical role in informed business decisions, especially during pivotal moments such as buying out a business partner and navigating financial rebuilding.Key Takeaways: Importance of Routine: Establishing a consistent routine for tracking financial metrics can simplify year-end processes and strategic planning. Key Metrics: Identifying and tracking essential business metrics, like revenue and expenses, help in making informed business decisions. EOS Framework: The Entrepreneurial Operating System helps businesses streamline operations by focusing on core metrics and long-term vision. Joy in the Journey: The process and daily operations of tracking and understanding numbers bring satisfaction and sustainability, beyond the end results. Flexibility and Reflection: Regularly reviewing tracked data provides insights into past challenges and triumphs, allowing for strategic realignment and growth.Notable Quotes: "At the end of the day, this has been a learned behavior for me as I look back at my whole career path." - Phillip Ramsey "The greatest part about this that Mark knew is if we continued to do it monthly and did it well, it would develop a routine." - Phillip Ramsey "The best time to plant a tree was yesterday. The second best is today." - Phillip Ramsey "Numbers tell a story if you can read them." - Phillip Ramsey

In this episode, Coach JK breaks down an internal struggle most people feel but rarely name: wanting more flexibility while resisting the structure that actually creates it.Using exercise as the main lens, JK explains why true flexibility isn't about doing everything whenever you feel like it...it's built by committing to a simple structure first, then earning the freedom to adapt, pivot, and explore without drifting.If you've been bouncing between workouts, goals, or routines and calling it “flexibility,” this episode offers a grounded reset. ----Instagram: @coachJKmcleodEmail: JK@jkmcleod.com

Welcome to another episode of the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this episode, our host welcomes Dr. Andrew Wilner to discuss his extensive career in medicine, detailing his certifications in internal medicine, neurology, and epilepsy. Dr. Wilner shares his multifaceted journey, from starting as an ER doctor without formal training to becoming a professor of neurology. He delves into the evolution of the internship model and offers advice for medical students in career decision-making. Dr. Wilner also elaborates on the locum tenens lifestyle, discussing the challenges and benefits, including the necessary preparation and mindset for success. Additionally, he highlights his experiences in academic roles, private practice, and as a medical journalist. The conversation concludes with insights into Dr. Wilner's book, 'The Locum Life: A Physician's Guide to Locum Tenens,' and his podcast, 'The Art of Medicine,' featuring stories of physicians pursuing unique medical careers. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Flexibility is Essential for Locums Success: Locums work requires adaptability in every aspect - assignments can be canceled last minute, you'll work in unfamiliar systems, and conditions are often less than ideal. The ability to be flexible and resourceful is more important than clinical skills alone. Prepare Thoroughly Before Each Assignment: Arrive 2 days early to handle logistics: learn the EMR system (demand paid training), scout parking and accommodations, get credentialing done, and eliminate uncertainties. This preparation reduces stress and lets you focus on patient care when the assignment starts. Locums Prevents Burnout and Maintains Career Options: Working locums (even part-time) keeps you clinically active, resets credentialing clocks, and provides control over your schedule. Many burned-out physicians rediscover their love of medicine through locums by working on their own terms (7-9 months/year) rather than leaving clinical practice entirely. Meet Dr. Andrew Wilner: Dr. Wilner has worked locum tenens on and off since 1982 and is the author of "The Locum Life: A Physician's Guide to Locum Tenens." Dr. Wilner is Professor of Neurology at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center in Memphis, Tennessee, and host and producer of the Art of Medicine with Dr. Andrew Wilner podcast since 2020. Dr. Wilner is a PADI Divemaster and passionate underwater photographer. Connect with Dr. Andrew Wilner:

Ever notice how being underestimated can light a fire under you? Too young. Too old. Not the right look. The wrong box. It's frustrating. And it's also fuel, if you know how to use it. In this episode, I sat down with Trevor Storm, a student entrepreneur running Media Wolf Marketing while earning his finance degree at Butler University. Yes, you read that right. And no, he's not waiting for permission. We talked about what happens when clients look at you sideways and wonder if you can really do the job. Spoiler alert. That doubt can work in your favor. Here are a few moments that stuck with me. Say yes, then earn it. Trevor's mindset is simple. Say yes to the opportunity, then do the work to make that yes pay off. Not reckless, just confident enough to learn fast and own the outcome. Use what they doubt as your advantage. Youth. Flexibility. Fewer layers. Trevor reframes all of it. More time. More focus. More care. When clients are your whole world, they feel it. The magic lives in the final 5 percent. Anyone can start strong. Credibility shows up in the follow through. The details. The batteries charged. The checklist signed off. That last little bit is where trust is built. If you've ever worried that you don't look experienced enough or polished enough, this conversation is a reminder that credibility isn't about age or titles. It's about showing up, doing the work, and finishing strong. Sometimes the best way to prove them wrong is to simply do the job better than anyone expects.

Excellence isn't a personality trait or a hustle tactic. It's a way of becoming. And in a culture driven by distraction, convenience, and external validation, genuine excellence is quietly eroding. What replaces it looks productive but feels hollow, leaving many people burned out, scattered, or chasing intensity instead of depth. This week on Win Today, Brad Stulberg joins me to recover a truer vision of excellence—one rooted in biology, values, focus, and formation. We explore why rugged flexibility matters more than rigid discipline, how to curate your inputs so your attention serves what matters most, and why there are actually two different kinds of burnout. This conversation reframes excellence not as achievement alone, but as a deeply human process of becoming aligned, durable, and alive. If you're tired of pseudo-excellence, dopamine-driven ambition, or burnout disguised as growth, this episode will help you reorient toward a better path—one that connects mastery with meaning and performance with purpose. Guest Bio Brad Stulberg is an author, coach, and researcher focused on excellence, sustainable performance, and human flourishing. He has written multiple best-selling books exploring the intersection of science, philosophy, and practice, and his work is widely recognized for helping individuals and organizations pursue growth without burnout. Brad's writing and teaching challenge hustle culture while offering a grounded, humane path toward mastery, resilience, and meaningful achievement.

Georgia is already one of the most income-tax-friendly states for retirees, but now local politicians are talking about eliminating the state income tax altogether. Sounds like a dream, right? But as Randy and I debate this today, we have to ask: Is this actually good for your retirement, or just a political shell game?   We dig into the "revenue mismatch" that happens when the government cuts taxes without cutting spending. Georgia already excludes up to $65,000 per person in retirement income—so why the push for zero income tax? We explore why this move might actually invite higher property and sales taxes that hit retirees the hardest, the "Florida Effect" on real estate, and why you need a plan nimble enough to survive changing laws. ⸻ ⏱️ Episode Timeline & Highlights [01:00] – The big debate: Should Georgia eliminate state income tax? [02:55] – Why Georgia is already a "Tax Haven" for retirees. [04:15] – The "Clawback" Risk: Will you actually see these savings? [05:30] – The Tax Shell Game: Where the state might collect revenue next. [07:15] – Learning from Florida and Texas: Shifting the burden to property values. [09:45] – Flexibility in your tax code: Why nothing is permanent. [11:50] – The "Golden Child" Lesson: Why knowing the rules means winning the game.

What does it really cost to be ambitious? If you've ever felt too big for some rooms but not enough for others, if you hide your success because you're afraid of making people uncomfortable, if you've sacrificed relationships and time and energy in pursuit of something bigger, this episode is for you.I don't wanna have to be strong right now. I don't wanna have to figure it out. What if I don't wanna be the one who's got the answer? This is the conversation ambitious women need but rarely get to have. Today I'm breaking down the real sacrifices required when you're building something big, the invisible weight you carry that nobody acknowledges, and why you might be choosing sacrifice in the short term instead of settling for regret in the long term. We're covering identity shifts (your identity is shifting so fast you sometimes don't recognize yourself), the emotional weight of being the capable one (always the person who handles it, never the person who gets to fall apart), hiding success because you're afraid of outgrowing your circle, the guilt of wanting more when everyone else seems content, sacrificing joy, hobbies, and spontaneity in the building phase, time that doesn't belong to you (your schedule revolves around launches, clients, deadlines), the mental load of your business always being on your mind, financial pressure especially for breadwinners, and why despite all of it, you wouldn't change a thing.The only other option is to know what was possible to achieve and never go for it. If you're feeling the weight of ambition right now, this is your validation.Timestamps: 00:50 Understanding Sacrifice02:05 Balancing Aspirations and Reality04:04 The Emotional Weight of Ambition08:01 Identity and Growth14:32 The Pressure of Success34:34 Questioning Desires and Ambitions34:56 The Guilt of Success and Isolation38:04 Sacrifices in Pursuit of Goals40:50 Balancing Business and Personal Life44:20 The Cost of Flexibility and Independence54:14 Financial Pressures and Investments58:37 Reflecting on Sacrifices and AchievementsTo join the Ambitious Network for free, click HERE.

Wootzano: https://www.wootzano.com/Atif Syed on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/syedatif/ Via Atif's LinkedIn post"I never thought I'd have to write this.Wootzano, the British robotics company I built from nothing, is at risk of being shut down not because of commercial failure, but because of a procedural trap.Yesterday, after a petition by Innovate UK Loans Limited (UKRI), the Court issued an order that instantly froze Wootzano's bank accounts.That created an impossible situation:In Scotland, a company cannot speak in court without a solicitor.A solicitor must lodge our appeal.But with accounts frozen, we cannot pay a solicitor."And if we don't file the appeal by 28 November, liquidation becomes final.A functioning deep-tech company can be silenced without ever being heard.This is not how innovation should die.Wootzano took an £838k Innovate UK Innovation Loan, a government lender, in 2022, a product marketed as patient, flexible capital for high-growth innovators. Flexibility is even built into the contract.But when our funded subsystem didn't reach commercialisation, no flexibility was offered, and the matter went straight down the standard debt route.If this can happen to us, it can happen to any of the 240+ UK companies on this loan programme.Wootzano is:

Comp plans are easy to talk about. Culture, leadership, growth? Not so much. And yet, it's the non-financial value that actually moves the needle when it comes to attracting aligned, long-term hires. In this episode of Recruiting Conversations, I give you a clear, five-part framework to define, communicate, and personalize your non-financial value, so you can win recruits who care about more than just the paycheck. Episode Breakdown [00:00] Setup – Why this question matters more than ever: "How do we communicate non-financial value effectively?" [01:00] Step 1: Define What Sets You Apart – You can't communicate what you haven't clearly named Leadership style Support and growth systems Culture behaviors Flexibility, autonomy, mentorship, development   [02:00] Step 2: Get Specific – Vague phrases like "we care about our people" don't land. Say what support actually looks like 30/60/90 onboarding? Weekly 1-on-1s? Leadership development tracks?   [03:00] Step 3: Lead With It Early – Don't wait for someone to ask about comp before you start talking about culture "Most of the people who join our team do it because of how we lead and help people grow"   [04:00] Step 4: Use Storytelling to Bring It to Life Tell the story of a team member who overcame something with your support Share how someone grew into a leadership role Let the recruit feel what it's like to be on your team   [05:00] Step 5: Personalize the Conversation – Ask questions like: What's missing in your current environment? What kind of leader brings out your best? Then connect what you offer directly to what they care about   [06:00] Bonus Step: Show, Don't Just Tell Invite recruits to team meetings Share a behind-the-scenes video Let them talk to a current team member Create a simple tour of your onboarding process   Key Takeaways Vague Language Doesn't Attract Top Talent – Define your values, support systems, and culture in specific, shareable language Recruits Don't Buy Features. They Buy Feelings – Use story to make the value real and relatable Don't Wait for the Comp Question to Show Value – Lead with your differentiators Personalization Wins Trust – Listen first, then highlight what matters to them Experience Builds Belief – Let them see and feel your culture before they say yes Your team's culture and leadership style may be the best-kept secret in your recruiting strategy. Let's change that. Lead with the value that actually keeps people, and you'll attract the right ones every time.

Stop stretching before your run. You're not preventing injuries; you're draining the very power and spring your muscles need to perform at their best.Ever feel like your pre-run routine might be working against you? For decades, we've been told that stretching is the golden rule before hitting the pavement. In this episode, I dig into the surprising science that flips that script on its head. You'll learn why that static stretching ritual could be sapping your power, discover what you should be doing instead to wake up your muscles and nervous system, and get a clear, simple plan to transform how you prepare your body to run faster and feel better from the very first step.Key TakeawaysDitch the static stretch before your run. It doesn't prevent injuries and it makes you weaker. Switch to a dynamic warmup instead.Flexibility and mobility are not the same. Flexibility is passive stretching; mobility is active, controlled movement. Runners need mobility.Stretch after your run, not before. Your muscles are warm then, which is the right time to gently work on long-term flexibility.Timestamps[00:22] What You'll Learn[01:08] What Is Flexibility vs Mobility[02:16] Why We Started Stretching Pre Runs?[03:17] What Should You Do Instead of Static Stretching?[04:45] Use This to Warm Up the Smart Way[05:33] What About Post-Run Stretching?[07:44] What the Science Says[08:39] Why Runners Need Stiffness, Not Looseness[10:25] Use This to Warm Up SmarterLinks & Learnings

What does it really mean to live a coherent life?In this episode of What Is a Good Life, Mark McCartney is joined by João Sevilhano for a deep, reflective conversation on coherence, something that goes beyond rigid moral ideals and is more a lived, imperfect practice. João is a psychologist and learning experience designer. Co-CEO of Way Beyond, where he works on human development and organisational transformation. His background is in clinical psychology and psychoanalysis. He collaborates with Porto Business School and NOVA Doctoral School, and he tends to think meaningful conversation is underrated as a tool for change.Together, they explore:What coherence feels like in everyday lifeThe tension between values, actions, and changing our mindsWhy coherence is different from authenticity or consistencyParenting, work, and small decisions as tests of alignment“Slow activism” and the impact of how we show up with othersRather than offering quick answers or formulas, this conversation sits with uncertainty, contradiction, and the discipline of paying attention - particularly when no one is watching.This episode is for anyone feeling the pull between who they are, how they live, and what the world is asking of them right now.For more of João's work:Newsletter: https://useful-uselessness.com/Way Beyond Website: https://www.waybeyond.pt/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joaosevilhano/ For more from Mark McCartney:Newsletter: https://www.whatisagood.life/Website: https://www.mmcleadership.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-mccartney-14b0161b4/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@whatisagoodlifeInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/markcmccartney00:00  Questions as Companions07:00  Spirituality in Everyday Life13:00  Coherence as Purpose16:30  Flexibility and Awareness22:30  Discipline and Practice30:00  Helping Without Imposing36:00  Slow Activism and Stubbornness42:00  Living With Contradiction49:00  Reflection on Sacrifice54:00  Not Knowing as a Practice

You're in the middle of surgical residency, and you realize you need more than a few weeks away from clinical responsibilities. Maybe you need more time to be a parent, recover from an illness, care for family, learn a new skill, or simply create space to reflect and reset. What if you could complete five years of training over six calendar years by spreading that time out in a way that fits your life?  Join Dr. Kara Button with Dr. Joe Buyske, and Dr. Bridget Olson as they break down the 5-in-6 pathway including how it works, who it's for, and the real-world logistics that matter.Hosts:Kara Button, DO — General Surgery Resident, Maine Medical Center; Behind the Knife Surgical Education FellowJo Buyske, MD — President & CEO, American Board of SurgeryDr. Bridget Olsen, MD — General Surgery Resident, Maine Medical CenterReferences: Bamdad MC, Hughes DT, Englesbe M.

Evan and Tiki dive into the idea of “forbidden fruit” trades and what it would actually take for Yankees fans to part with elite young talent in a true blockbuster scenario. The conversation shifts to roster flexibility, prospects earning real opportunities, and why patience still matters more than panic. From there, the focus moves to the Knicks, where recent wins clash with ongoing trade rumors. The guys break down why Mikal Bridges still divides the fan base, how his own comments about coachability and entitlement stood out, and why any serious pursuit of Giannis Antetokounmpo would almost certainly have to include Bridges. A classic Evan and Tiki segment that blends big swings, reality checks, and a few entertaining detours along the way.

Set yourself up for success: how to create a sustainable movement plan.
