Podcasts about Flexible

The Cycling Podcast returns for another round-up of a packed and intriguing last week in professional cycling, with Paris-Nice and Tirreno-Adriatico completing their respective journeys and Milan-Sanremo on the horizon. Daniel Friebe, Lionel Birnie and Rob Hatch look first at Paris-Nice, where Jonas Vingegaard served up a timely reminder of his credentials ahead of his Giro-Tour double bid. We discuss Redbull–BORA–hansgrohe's tactics on the decisive stage to Uchon, a thrilling team time trial and Lenny Martínez's tactical masterclass on the final stage. The focus then switches to Tirreno, where good friends Isaac del Toro and Giulio Pellizzari turned rivals, with the Mexican ultimately prevailing. In the final part of the episode, we look ahead to the great cliffhanger of the spring season, Milano-Sanremo, and particularly Tadej Pogačar's latest bid to win there. There's a trip to Coorevits Corner, former winner Pippo Pozzato's advice for Pogačar, and another interview with the Slovenian's own dedicated Sanremo coach, former rider and local boy Niccolò Bonifazio.  EPISODE SPONSORSIndeedIf you are looking to hire someone for your company, maybe the best way isn't to search for a candidate but to match with Indeed.

Episode Overview In this follow-up conversation, Annie and Jen unpack what it really looks like to find the middle between perfectionism and "loosey goosey" eating. They share the real-life moments that helped them move away from extremes, why the middle can feel surprisingly uncomfortable at first, and what actually helps you stay there. This episode is a grounded conversation about building self-trust, making peace with imperfection, and creating habits you can return to without all the drama. They also dig into the mindset shifts, motivation changes, and practical habits that help women stop swinging between rigid control and total chaos. The episode closes with an honest conversation about results, including the physical, mental, and emotional changes that can come with a more balanced approach.

In this episode of the Translating ADHD podcast, Asher and Dusty explore the challenges and opportunities involved in creating routines that work well for people with ADHD. They emphasize starting with what you already do and finding ways to add value without overcomplicating or overengineering your daily habits. The hosts discuss how routines don't have to be perfect or rigid but should instead be adaptable to individual capacity, positionality, and life seasons. They also provide real-life examples of small adjustments, such as using waiting times productively or breaking down tasks into manageable chunks, to help listeners build sustainable daily practices. Asher and Dusty also highlight the importance of self-awareness in designing routines, pointing out that some people thrive on structure while others need flexibility and novelty to stay engaged. They caution against forcing generic advice like strict checklists onto everyone and encourage listeners to find their own balance between formal systems and going with the flow. Ultimately, they remind listeners that routines serve the purpose of making life easier and more fulfilling, not more stressful or overwhelming. The key takeaway is that progress matters more than perfection and that routines should be tailored to fit one's unique needs and energy levels.

What if the reason your client is stuck is not a lack of motivation or clarity, but the way their executive functioning is wired?  In this episode, we explore eight powerful lenses that can completely transform the way you coach neurodivergent clients and, in truth, the way you coach all clients. Executive functioning sits at the heart of how we plan, start, organise, regulate emotions, manage impulses and adapt to change. When we understand it, coaching becomes more inclusive, more compassionate and far more effective.  We begin with a simple but important reframe. Executive functioning is not only relevant for clients who identify as neurodivergent. Many people remain undiagnosed, and every human being has a unique profile of strengths and challenges across these functions. When we bring this awareness into our practice, we move away from labelling behaviours as procrastination, lack of focus or resistance and instead start working with the real barrier.  As we walk through each of the eight areas, we share how easily traditional coaching approaches can unintentionally create shame. Asking a client how to get motivated when the real challenge is task initiation creates a completely different experience from recognising what is actually happening in their brain. That moment of being seen and understood often unlocks progress faster than any strategy.  We talk about organisation and the importance of helping clients design systems that work with their brain rather than forcing themselves into methods that were never built for them. We explore planning and prioritisation through the lens of demand avoidance and spontaneity, recognising that for some clients the plan itself is the obstacle.  Working memory brings a powerful reflection on coaching style. Keeping questions simple, using visual anchors and contracting around how to hold the thread of the conversation makes coaching more accessible and more effective.  Self monitoring and emotional regulation reveal the deep emotional impact of executive functioning challenges. Many clients carry a lifetime of self criticism without realising that what they are experiencing is a difference in processing rather than a personal failure. Coaching becomes a space for self acceptance as much as progress.  Impulse control and flexible thinking invite us to move beyond deficit based models. Impulsivity can be a source of energy, creativity and connection. Rigidity often signals a need for safety. Our role is not to fix these traits but to help clients use their strengths and create support structures that allow them to thrive.  Throughout this conversation, what stands out is that neurodivergent inclusive coaching is not about having the answers. It is about having the lens. When we understand executive functioning, we accelerate trust, deepen our coaching relationships and enable clients to achieve their goals in ways that are aligned with who they truly are.  This is coaching that replaces judgement with curiosity, removes shame and gives clients practical levers for change. It is inclusive, ethical and deeply human.    Timestamps:  00:00 Introduction to coaching neurodivergent clients through executive functioning 00:31 What executive functioning means in coaching 01:24 Inclusivity for diagnosed and undiagnosed clients 02:21 The executive functioning wheel as a coaching tool 04:18 Task initiation and removing the shame of procrastination 07:10 Organisation and creating brain aligned systems 08:59 Body doubling and in session action 10:24 Planning and prioritisation with demand avoidance 13:29 Working memory and adapting your coaching style 16:17 Practical ways to support working memory in sessions 16:46 Self monitoring and the emotional impact of over analysis 18:41 Emotional regulation and accessing resourceful states 22:55 Why emotions coaching and neurodivergent coaching fit together 23:25 Impulse control as strength and challenge 24:48 Moving beyond the imposter syndrome label 25:35 Flexible thinking and creating safety in change 27:52 Using strengths to support flexibility 28:47 Why executive functioning matters for all clients 29:17 How to continue your learning    Key Lessons Learned:  Executive functioning provides a powerful lens for inclusive coaching.  Many behaviours labelled as procrastination or resistance are task initiation challenges.  Brain aligned systems are more effective than forcing traditional productivity methods.  Coaching style must adapt to support working memory and accessibility.  Self compassion is a critical outcome of neurodivergent inclusive coaching.  Impulsivity and flexibility can be strengths when understood and supported.  Awareness of executive functioning accelerates trust and progress in coaching.    Keywords:  coaching neurodivergent clients, executive functioning in coaching, ADHD coaching strategies neurodivergent inclusive coaching, task initiation procrastination coaching, working memory coaching techniques, emotional regulation for neurodivergent clients, flexible thinking coaching strength based neurodiversity coaching, ICF neurodivergent coaching training,    Links & Resources:  Neurodivergent Inclusive Coaching programme: https://www.igcompany.com/nd

Struggling with social skills practice that actually feels natural? This week on the podcast, we're diving deep into practical, respectful ways to support our neurodivergent kiddos as they navigate friendships and social situations—without the cringe! From conversation entry points (aka scripts that don't turn our kids into social robots!) to playful, low-stakes role-playing at home, Colleen shares hands-on strategies to boost confidence and make socializing just a little easier for everyone involved. If "Just be yourself!" doesn't cut it in your house, you're not alone. Listen to this episode and help your kids build real-world connections, one conversation at a time. Key Takeaways: Scripts as Scaffolding, Not Life Sentences: Social scripts aren't rigid lines for kids to memorize forever. Instead, they serve as supportive "training wheels" to help neurodivergent kids enter, maintain, and exit conversations more naturally—reducing anxiety and offering footholds toward authentic communication. Practice Through Playful, Low-Stakes Moments: Avoid pressuring your child with public corrections or high-stakes rehearsal before social events. Instead, incorporate side-by-side role play, movie-pause coaching, and micro-practicing to gently build and reinforce social skills without making kids feel evaluated. Measure Progress by Initiative, Not Perfection: Success isn't about perfect eye contact or flawless conversation. Celebrate when your child initiates conversations, adapts their scripts into their own words, or asks to socialize again. These signs mean scripts are becoming real-world skills! Parenting and homeschooling neurodivergent kids is tough—but you're already doing amazing work just by showing up, learning, and supporting your child's unique journey.

Welcome back to the Nikky After Dark, where we dive into the steamiest, most unfiltered confessions from listeners just like you. I'm your host, Nikky, and today's episode is all about those "professional" boundaries that get oh-so-blurry in the world of fitness. We're talking yoga mats turning into playgrounds, personal trainers spotting more than squats, and therapy sessions that heal way more than injuries. If you've ever felt that spark during a downward dog or a deep stretch, buckle up—this one's for you. First, let's tease what's coming up with three short snippets from the confessions we'll hear today:"I stayed arched just like that, pushing my hips back more, and he closed the distance. His fingers slipped inside my yoga pants first, and I was already moaning...""Hands everywhere: sliding up my thighs, cupping my tits through my soaked top, fingers slipping under the edges of my shorts to tease my already dripping pussy. Then the dicks came out—hard, thick, throbbing—surrounding me...""Naomi pulled Kim toward me, joint in hand, and growled, 'Put Daddy's cock in your mouth like a good girl.' Kim didn't hesitate—she swallowed me whole, sloppy and hungry..."Join us over on Discord. https://discord.gg/uqqxsCSDfwContent Warning: This episode contains explicit sexual content, including graphic descriptions of nudity, public sex, infidelity, and boundary-pushing consensual fantasies.

For many young people, the nine-to-five job is no longer the only or preferred option. Flexible schedules, multiple income streams, and digital entrepreneurship are increasingly part of the career landscape. In China, this has fueled the rapid rise of new forms of employment, from delivery services to livestream commerce. As lawmakers and political advisers gather at the Two Sessions, the country is taking a closer look at how this new generation of workers is reshaping the labor market.

Have you ever downloaded someone's content plan only to find it just… doesn't work for you? In this episode, I'm diving into a real conversation from a recent mastermind call about why cookie-cutter content plans fall flat — and what to do instead.I'm sharing the simple framework I use to create content consistently without the overwhelm: the who, what, when, where, why, and how of your offer. I'll walk you through how to use these basics to always have something meaningful to post, why repeating yourself is actually a good thing, and how sharing your personality quirks and telling stories (yes, even about snowboarding and Stardew Valley) can be some of your most powerful content. Plus, I make the case for lo-fi, imperfect content — and why your phone videos from your couch might actually outperform anything you'd shoot in a studio.If you've been staring at a blank screen wondering what to post, this one's for you.If you found this helpful, I'd love it if you took a moment to rate and review The Dream Biz® Podcast — it truly helps the show reach more people like you!

Tadej Pogačar made his return to racing at Strade Bianche at the weekend, and it was a familiar story for him, his rivals and those watching. What for one set of fans was yet another sublime and glorious exhibition, for others represented just the continuation of a monotonous, all-too-familiar theme.Daniel Friebe, Lionel Birnie and Brian Nygaard debate what Pog's first solo recital of 2026 stirred in them, and we also consider to what extent Paul Seixas's remarkable performance could herald the beginning of an era-defining rivalry.  There's a round-up of what's been happening in France at Paris-Nice and in Italy at Tirreno-Adriatico, plus some rare speculation about INEOS's future. EPISODE SPONSORSIndeedIf you are looking to hire someone for your company, maybe the best way isn't to search for a candidate but to match with Indeed.

How Behavior-Driven Design Is Defining the Future of the Home KBIS Series 2026, findings and experiences from the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show, recorded live from the KBIS Podcast Studio presented by AJ Madison. This was the second year of this program and we built on last year's show with even more experts in the industry sharing experience, findings and industry-leading insights. KBIS Podcast Studio Resources: KBIS AJ Madison NKBA LUXE Interiors + Design SubZero, Wolf & Cove SKS | Signature Kitchen Suite Hearth & Home Technologies Kitchen365 Green Forrest Cabinetry Midea What happens when home innovation prioritizes real-world habits over flashy, unnecessary features? This conversation explores how a deep understanding of how people use their appliances every day leads to intentional solutions that fit every lifestyle.  Join Justin Reinke, Head of Product Marketing at Midea, and Ryan Shaffer, Sr. Technical Product Planning Engineer at Midea, to discuss how hundreds of hours of in-home observation drive breakthroughs in everything from acoustic comfort to specialized hygiene. By analyzing universal pain points—like the rise of sustainable drinkware and open-concept living—we examine the R&D required to make daily chores easier through practical, performance-driven design that works harder for the household. For decades, appliance innovation followed a predictable formula: more features, more technology, more complexity. Digital displays replaced analog controls. Connectivity introduced remote operation. Artificial intelligence promised optimization. But somewhere along the way, innovation lost sight of its most important objective—serving the human being. Today, that philosophy is changing. At KBIS 2026, one of the most important conversations wasn't about technology itself, but about behavior. Appliance manufacturers are increasingly recognizing that true innovation does not begin in engineering labs. It begins in homes—watching how people live. This shift represents a fundamental evolution in product development. Instead of asking what technology can do, manufacturers are asking what people actually need. Consider the refrigerator. It is opened dozens of times each day, often absentmindedly, during moments of distraction, urgency, or fatigue. Every movement—the height of a shelf, the accessibility of a drawer, the ease of filling a glass—shapes the user's experience. These micro-interactions define whether an appliance feels intuitive or frustrating. Similarly, dishwashers must now accommodate modern behavioral realities. Reusable bottles, travel tumblers, and complex accessories require flexibility that traditional rack designs never anticipated. Washing machines must operate quietly enough to coexist within open-plan homes, where appliance noise becomes part of the lived environment. These are not technological problems. They are human problems. The most forward-thinking manufacturers have embraced observation as their primary design tool. By studying real households, engineers and designers can identify friction points invisible in traditional research. The goal is not to add features, but to remove obstacles. This approach also challenges the industry's historical obsession with specifications. Feature lists do not guarantee usability. Connectivity does not guarantee convenience. Technology that requires explanation has already failed its most important test. The future appliance must be intuitive. It must integrate seamlessly into daily routines, supporting behavior rather than disrupting it. It must operate quietly, reliably, and predictably. It must reduce mental load, not increase it. Perhaps most importantly, it must respect the reality that appliances are not aspirational objects. They are functional infrastructure. They exist to support life, not define it. This shift toward behavior-driven design reflects a broader maturation of the appliance industry. Innovation is no longer measured by novelty, but by invisibility. The best appliances do their job so well that users never think about them at all. In the end, the future of appliances will not be defined by how advanced they are. It will be defined by how effortlessly they serve the people who depend on them every day. Behavior as the Foundation of Innovation Product development begins with observing real-world habits. Behavioral insights reveal needs consumers rarely articulate. Design solutions prioritize intuitive use over technical novelty. Practical Innovation vs Feature Saturation Most consumers use only a small percentage of available features. Simplification improves usability, adoption, and satisfaction. Innovation must solve real problems—not marketing problems. Appliances as Infrastructure for Daily Life Refrigerators open dozens of times daily, making ergonomic design critical. Dishwashers, washers, and refrigeration now integrate into behavioral routines. Appliances increasingly support lifestyle efficiency, not just task completion. Noise Reduction and Environmental Integration Open floor plans make acoustic performance essential. Quiet operation improves perceived quality and livability. Engineering focus has expanded beyond performance to experiential comfort. Replacement Market Realities and Design Flexibility Most appliance purchases are replacements, not full remodels. Products must integrate visually and functionally with mixed-brand kitchens. Flexible, accessible design supports long-term usability. Sustainability Through Longevity and Efficiency Sustainability now includes durability, waste reduction, and performance efficiency. Better storage and preservation reduce food waste. Long product lifecycles contribute to environmental responsibility.

About the Show:"We are all one life-changing event away from having to navigate or make decisions in a landscape we never thought we would find ourselves in." – Cherie ClarkIn this heartfelt episode of I Am Northwest Arkansas®, host Randy Wilburn sits down with Cherie Clark, Director of External Relations at Purview Life NWA, for a deeply personal conversation about aging life care management and what it really means to support families through some of life's most challenging seasons.Cherie's path to this work didn't start in a boardroom — it started at a bedside. Her own experience as a family caregiver led her to Purview Life, a company she describes as a "general contractor for health care."

If you’re like Keith, you’ve found yourself standing in the checkout line at the grocery store more than once when you realized you forgot your reusable bags… again! Now, you’re taking home those plastic grocery bags that can’t be curbside recycled, and you have to remember to bring them back to the store to recycle next time which, well… if you could remember that, you wouldn’t have forgotten your reusable bags in the first place, right? The real Problem is that hard-to-get-rid-of flexible plastic. And look around next time you’re at the store: it goes a lot further than plastic grocery bags. On this episode, Keith and Mollie are once again joined by their friend Meredith to learn how somebody’s finally doing something about this problem! No, Meredith’s not calling Keith to remind him to bring his reusable bags, although that certainly wouldn’t hurt. Tune in to learn about the Flexible Film Recycling Alliance, an industry-wide group working to find ways to keep this stuff out of the landfills. Meredith inspires Keith and Mollie to think about what they buy as well as what they recycle to do their part in dealing with flexible films, and we hope she’ll inspire you, too. As always, we’d love to hear your own ideas on our contact form.

The Classics season has truly commenced, with Opening Weekend out of the way and regular trio Daniel Friebe, Lionel Birnie and Rob Hatch back to analyse the key takeaways from two intense days of racing on the cobbles and hellingen of Flanders. On Saturday, Mathieu van der Poel's latest masterclass suggested it could be a long spring for some of his rivals. MVDP's eternal antagonist, Wout Van Aert, was absent from Visma-Lease a Bike's line-up through illness, but that team could at least console themselves with Matthew Brennan's superb victory in Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne on Sunday. We review both races and what they said about the coming weeks, with help from the ultimate authority on springtime racing in Belgium, Hugo Coorevits. It was also a busy weekend in France, and a delirious one for patriotic French fans. Paul Seixas's dominant performance at the Faun Ardèche Classic on Saturday prompted former rider turned pundit Jérôme Pineau to hail Seixas as “already the third best rider in the world”. We evaluate those claims and look ahead to Seixas's first clash of the season with Tadej Pogačar at Strade Bianche. EPISODE SPONSORSIndeedIf you are looking to hire someone for your company, maybe the best way isn't to search for a candidate but to match with Indeed.

"Just listen to your body" is the most popular nutrition advice for anyone tired of tracking who is trying to lose fat.The problem is, your hunger signals may be giving you bad data.Chronic dieting, sleep disruption, hormonal shifts in perimenopause and menopause, and ultra-processed foods all degrade your appetite signals. A 2013 study found that intuitive eating only helps weight loss when those signals are accurate. If they're off, the whole system breaks down and it's very difficult to lose fat.Philip walks through what the intuitive eating research actually measures (psychological health, not body composition), four factors that degrade your hunger signals after 40, and a step-by-step framework for building real food freedom through structured skill-building, not by skipping straight to "eat by vibes." You'll also get a 3-question self-test to check whether your signals are calibrated enough to ditch the app, even when you want to lose fat.Join the Eat More Lift Heavy waitlist to get first access and founder pricing on a 26-week coached program that builds your nutrition and strength training skills in sequence so you can build muscle and lose fat efficiently:https://witsandweights.com/eatmoreTimestamps:0:00 - Why "just listen to your body" fails 0:31 - What intuitive eating actually is 3:30 - What the research shows (and doesn't) 6:15 - The body composition blind spot 8:30 - Interoceptive accuracy explained 9:45 - 4 factors that wreck hunger signals 13:15 - Eat more and lift heavy! 15:00 - 4 stages of nutritional competence 18:17 - Self-determination theory and tracking 20:00 - Diet autoregulation vs. intuitive eating 22:34 - Flexible vs. rigid structure for fat loss 26:00 - 3-question hunger signal self-test 

What happens when a light bar becomes a control system? We sit down with TowMate's Chris Anderson to explore how flexible warning lights and smarter training are reshaping safety, installs, and compliance across state lines. The Infinitra 58 quad‑color bar anchors the conversation with full 360 coverage and deep configurability: independent control of patterns, speed, intensity, front cutoff, and rear‑only modes for stationary work. Add traffic advisor functions, cruise and parade modes, plus stop‑tail‑turn integration, and you get a single platform that adapts to jobs, policies, and regional codes without swapping hardware.We also unpack the engine behind it all: PowerLink 2.0, a two‑wire power‑and‑ground digital platform that's 44x faster than the original and broadcasts across three frequencies for rock‑solid reliability. Installers get CAN‑like control without extra data wires, upfitters shave hours from builds, and fleets can standardize across vehicles with drop‑in multicolor markers and stop‑tail‑turn replacements. For agencies and operators crossing state borders, a configurable quad‑color setup means fewer compromises and clearer signaling at every scene.There's more: a first look at the TowMate Advantage wireless tow light, a lithium‑powered, budget‑friendly cousin to the SaberLight. Expect wireless stop‑tail‑turn with sequencing amber turns, integrated strobe and area light, a clean housing with strong magnets, and a smart battery indicator on startup—plus an upgrade kit path for TM22 owners moving to lithium. Rounding it out, TowMate University launches as a module‑based training hub to help dealers and operators master setup, configuration, and best practices so every feature turns into real‑world safety and efficiency.Ready to see what configurable lighting can do for your fleet?

It's another packed week of early-season racing, as we look back on the key action from the UAE, Andalusia and the Algarve last week – and ahead to Belgium's Opening Weekend.Daniel Friebe, Lionel Birnie and Rob Hatch focus first on the Volta ao Algarve, where Paul Seixas cranked up the hype around his short and long-term future with a stunning stage win and top-three overall finish. The winner of that race overall was Juan Ayuso, now of Lidl-Trek and formerly UAE. The rider who some might argue made Ayuso expendable at UAE, Isaac Del Toro, ruled the roost at the UAE Tour. Our Omloop Nieuwsblad preview is also an opportunity to find out whether there's any truth to rumours about perhaps the biggest star of the recent Winter Olympics joining Uno-X. Team manager Thor Hushovd sets us straight on that, plus we visit our own Belgian Classics oracle in Coorevits Corner. EPISODE SPONSORSIndeedIf you are looking to hire someone for your company, maybe the best way isn't to search for a candidate but to match with Indeed.

It's been another frantic week in the world of pro cycling, with early season races in several parts of southern Europe and the Middle East. Tudor Pro Cycling's Larry Warbasse, who began his season at the Tour of Oman, is back in the co-host's seat with Daniel Friebe to review some of the key action and talking points. The most prestigious of the races starting this week, at least according to the UCI's ranking system, is the UAE Tour. Many expected a revealing first head-to-head battle between Remco Evenepoel and Isaac Del Toro, and indeed they emerged from the first three stages with a win apiece. Only one of the pair, though, will have been satisfied with his GC position with the final showdown at Jebel Hafeet to come – and that was Del Toro. Larry and Daniel discuss Evenepoel's struggles at the other Jebel, Mobrah, and ponder what they say about the rest of his season. We also talk about some other prodigious talents that have been in spotlight early this year, wayward leadouts and Pinarello Q36.5's recent trip to Chile, as described to us by Fred Wright.  EPISODE SPONSORSBikmoThis episode of The Cycling Podcast is brought to you by Bikmo cycle insurance – because let's face it, things happen.

Michael Gray is the Chief Strategy and Marketing Officer at Spacial Working. He is based in London, UK. Spacial Working is focused on helping companies to create a flexible work environment that embraces both working from home and working in offices. The aim is to create a flexible arrangement that works well for the company and employees. The media often reports that WFH is finished and most employees are heading back into offices, but the reality is quite different. There is less WFH than during the pandemic period, but it has plateaued and is not dropping much further - so there is much more flexibility today compared to 2019. But many companies still struggle to make it work well so what does Michael advise? https://spacialworking.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelgray7/   Summary: In this CX Files episode, Mark Hillary speaks with Michael Gray, Chief Strategy Officer at Spacial Working, about what the pandemic really changed — and what it didn't — in customer experience operations. Gray explains that work-from-home in the contact center industry is not a temporary COVID experiment but part of a much longer evolution enabled by technology and workforce expectations. While some executives continue pushing return-to-office mandates, the evidence shows the future is hybrid: organizations must redesign recruitment, training, management, and performance measurement rather than simply sending agents home with laptops. Flexible working can improve retention and productivity, particularly for parents, carers, and geographically distant employees, but only if supported by proper monitoring, communication structures, and culture. The real challenge for CX leaders is no longer deciding whether remote work works — it is learning how to operationally manage a permanent hybrid workforce. Disclosure: Mark Hillary is a research adviser to Spacial Working

Intermittent fasting is often promoted as a simple solution for weight loss, but most of the research behind it has been done in men. In this episode, I break down one of the few women-specific trials on time-restricted eating: Flexible time-restricted eating and aerobic exercise in middle-aged women (Nature Communications, 2025). You can read the paper here: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-025-65678-z This study looked at middle-aged women with overweight or obesity and found that an 8-hour eating window reduced fat mass, with the greatest improvements seen when time-restricted eating was combined with exercise. In this episode, we cover: Why skipping breakfast often backfires for stressed or cycling women Why cortisol, sleep, and total intake matter more than fasting longer Why I prefer time-restricted eating over strict 16-hour fasts How a 10–12 hour overnight fast may support fat metabolism A more sustainable, physiology-first approach to weight loss If you want a more sustainable, physiology-first approach to weight loss as a woman, this episode will help you rethink timing, stress, and structure. Notes: Join Flourish - my small group programme focused on weight loss here

It's a must win.”That's how Sheldon Kimber describes AI for companies like Google.If your business depends on organizing and serving information, AI isn't optional. It's existential.And if AI is existential, power becomes strategic.In this conversation — recorded before Google's acquisition of Intersect Power — Sheldon lays out the durable thesis that led here:The U.S. grid isn't collapsing.It just can't scale.Transmission is stalled.Business models are misaligned.Permitting reform won't arrive in time.So instead of waiting for the grid to be fixed, Intersect built around it.Gigawatt-scale co-location.Wind, solar, batteries.Flexible gas.Control systems designed to act as one asset.The result? A hybrid solution that can deliver four-nines reliability - potentially more reliable than the grid itself.This isn't about chasing incentives.It's about building a better product.In this episode:

The Cycling Podcast returns with another debrief from the latest round of early-season racing, this week focusing on the Volta Comunitat Valenciana and the Tour of Oman.Daniel Friebe, Lionel Birnie and Rob Hatch discuss Remco Evenepoel's most recent tour de force in Spain and Astana's similarly fast start to the season, with Christian Scaroni winning in the Middle East. Scaroni also lays claim to one of the best nicknames in the pro peloton (clue in the episode title), but we learn that a new contender for that title may have emerged in Oman. It was a busy week on other fronts, with Jonas Vingegaard's coach leaving Visma-Lease a Bike, Marc Soler dragged into a minor family drama in Spain, and news of a new Lance Armstrong biopic. All that and more in another feisty episode!  EPISODE SPONSORSIndeedIf you are looking to hire someone for your company, maybe the best way isn't to search for a candidate but to match with Indeed.

With the racing hotting up all over the pro cycling world, we return with the same Friebe-Birnie-Hatch trio as last week to review the latest action and talking points. The biggest news story of the week was ASO's decision to hand Spanish outfit Caja Rural a Tour de France wild card at the expense of the Unibet Rose Rockets. We discuss to what extent Caja's place on the startline in Barcelona is justified and the case for the opposition i.e. the Rockets.One man who'll certainly be heading to the Tour, barring accident, is Remco Evenepoel. His three wins in his first three outings for Red Bull-BORA-hansgrohe in Mallora augur well for the rest of season. Daniel's question is: could Remco even be the man to ruin Tadej Pogačar's Sanremo dream?Another candidate for that role, of course, is Mathieu van der Poel. He won his eighth world cyclocross title at the weekend, which has us wondering about the Winter Olympics extending his career in the discipline.EPISODE SPONSORSIndeedIf you are looking to hire someone for your company, maybe the best way isn't to search for a candidate but to match with Indeed.
