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.

He discusses leveraging technology, planning large-scale projects, and designing spaces that attract top talent and improve health outcomes across Indiana.
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.

In this ICYMI article-read episode of I Hear Design, we explore Radford University's Artis Center for Adaptive Innovation and Creativity, an interdisciplinary, student-centered hub that brings the health sciences and the arts under one roof based on a recent article published by interiors+sources. Designed by Hord Coplan Macht in collaboration with William Rawn Associates, the 178,000-square-foot facility replaces siloed departmental space with shared, multipurpose environments—from studios and maker spaces to tech-enabled collaboration zones—helping reduce redundancies and deliver a more efficient footprint. You'll also hear how the building's campus-connector strategy turns the facility into both a destination and a thoroughfare, while universal design solutions address a challenging 60-foot grade change to support barrier-free access, belonging, and wellbeing.
Clinical trials need flexibility, but most systems are rigid. Conor Garrett from Scout Clinical explains how they built flexibility into every layer of their patient payment and travel logistics services. From customizable portals that adapt to site preferences to a 24/7 patient liaison team that steps in when flights get canceled or payment issues arise, Scout's approach is people first, technology enabled. Conor shares why technology supports the process but people support the experience, how they listen to site feedback and actually implement changes, and real scenarios where human intervention prevented patient dropouts. Learn why balancing automation with human touch matters and how flexible systems remove friction so sites can focus on what matters most.

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.

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
In a fluid environment, leadership flexibility comes from a greater willingness to get uncomfortable. In this Refocus Edition of The Leadership Foundry Podcast, Kevin Eikenberry challenges a common assumption: flexibility isn't about reacting faster, it's about letting go of what feels familiar. The leaders who adapt best are those most willing to stretch, listen, and adjust. Staying effective in change often requires doing the counterintuitive thing first.

“This is not an offensive play. It's a defensive play. 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.

Ivan Cossu is Co-Founder and CEO of deskbird, a flexible workplace management platform that's scaled past $10 million ARR. Founded in April 2020 during COVID's most uncertain period, deskbird survived a near-death pivot just months in and scaled across 10 international markets within six months—an unconventional path that challenged conventional wisdom about market domination strategies. Ivan shares the tactical decisions behind their international expansion, the shift from founder-led to scalable sales, and why they're deliberately targeting an underfunded VC category. Topics Discussed: The critical pivot from an Airbnb for co-working spaces to workplace management software in July 2020, months before running out of capital The counterintuitive decision to scale internationally within six months rather than dominating a single market first Balancing consumer-grade UX with enterprise-level customization in a category where competitors felt like "database queries" The mechanics of transitioning from pure inbound to incorporating outbound without breaking what's working US market expansion from Europe with higher close rates than home markets—and what that signaled about timing Why traditional email outbound is dead in the AI era and what actually works for breaking through GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Scale your proven funnel globally before you perfect it locally: When deskbird saw strong early traction, they launched landing pages across UK and US markets within months to test demand signals. Ivan's contrarian take: "If you have a good funnel that's working, be bold enough to scale it globally" rather than spending years dominating Germany first. The key qualifier—you need solid core product and conversion metrics, not just initial traction. They were "way too scared of going international because it always worked out way better than we thought," often seeing better metrics in new markets than home markets. Most founders over-index on local penetration when they should be testing international demand. Choose validation channels by cycle time, not potential scale: In the first 6-12 months, avoid any channel with an 18-month feedback loop, even if it's your eventual ICP. Ivan targeted paid search and lower mid-market specifically because "you get a good sample size quite fast." Fast feedback loops let you iterate positioning, messaging, and ICP assumptions weekly rather than annually. Once you have conviction from high-velocity channels, then layer in longer-cycle enterprise motions. This sequencing prevents burning 12+ months on the wrong strategy. Founder-led sales is a permanent muscle, not a phase to exit: At $10M+ ARR, Ivan still joins sales calls regularly, citing a top entrepreneur-investor's rule: "Sales always needs to remain a final topic." The evolution isn't binary—it's additive. First hires (around 9 months post-MVP) were generalist "hard workers" who could sell vision over process. Today's hires are more disciplined as repeatable plays emerged. But the founder never exits—they shift from doing all deals to strategic deals, competitive situations, and maintaining direct customer insight. Even Benioff at Salesforce's scale still jumps into deals. Outbound in the AI era requires anti-scale tactics: Ivan's blunt assessment: "I don't believe in emails and any kind of written communication, especially not in the age of AI—it's just inflated." What works: (1) Targeted account selection—not 1:1 but not 1:1000 either, find the sweet spot of focused ABM, (2) Physical mail and offline media, (3) Cold calling with proper infrastructure. The challenge isn't the tactic—it's "having all the BDRs and AEs knowing which accounts they have to call, seamlessly calling account after account." Most companies can't operationalize the calling machine. Best results come when marketing warms leads with intent data, then hands them to outbound teams—not pure cold outreach. Underfunded categories force better unit economics: Deskbird's space isn't flooded with VC dollars—Ivan mapped 50-60 European competitors but limited mega-rounds. His take: "There's a downside, it's harder to get VC money, but once you get it you don't have the problem that some spaces are overfunded and it's crazily driving up customer acquisition cost." Markets with excessive capital often have one winner and "very sad consolidation" for positions 2-4. Constrained capital forced deskbird to build profitably and focus on product differentiation (Airbnb-like UX meets enterprise customization) rather than outspending competitors. Close rates in new markets signal expansion timing better than absolute numbers: Deskbird closed US deals from Europe with European AEs in mismatched time zones—and saw the highest close rates of any market. Ivan's logic: "If we can close them from Europe with our European AEs working in different time zones who cannot deliver the same SLAs, and we then go to the US, it should get even better." Don't wait for perfect execution—if you're winning despite structural disadvantages, that's your signal to invest. They hired their first US-based team only after proving they could win remotely. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

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.

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.

As parents, educators, and advocates for neurodivergent kids, it's crucial to recognize that traditional tests and assessments don't always paint the full picture of a child's abilities. In the newest episode of the podcast, we dive into why performance anxiety can create barriers—and how we can scaffold authentic, strengths-based ways for children to show what they truly know. Key Takeaways: Performance Anxiety ≠ Knowledge Gap If a child can demonstrate understanding in low-pressure settings but "freezes" or melts down when assessed, it's not a lack of knowledge—it's the context and perceived safety that need adjusting. Accommodations Are Powerful, Not Coddling Thoughtful adaptations—like adjusting the environment, pacing, or method of response—help reveal rather than hide skills. These accommodations build confidence and resilience for future challenges. Celebrate Wins & Prioritize Safety Progress isn't always linear. Celebrate small victories and focus more on helping children feel safe and seen. Creating a foundation of trust leads to more voluntary engagement and authentic learning. If you're educating or supporting a neurodivergent or twice-exceptional child, remember: The goal isn't to recreate school, but to foster an environment where kids can thrive in ways that make sense for them.

The Strong[HER] Way | non diet approach, mindset coaching, lifestyle advice
Send us a textWhat if your obsession with "healthy eating" is actually making you less healthy? In this episode of The Strong(HER) Way podcast, fitness and nutrition coach Alisha Carlson tackles the uncomfortable truth about orthorexia: the eating disorder disguised as wellness that's silently taking over the lives of high-achieving moms everywhere.This isn't about demonizing clean eating or telling you to give up your health goals. It's about learning the difference between healthy intentionality and harmful rigidity (and understanding how perfectionism around food can sabotage both your mental health AND your actual results).Alisha breaks down the science behind why high-achieving, perfectionist women are especially vulnerable to orthorexic patterns, what it actually looks like in everyday mom life, and most importantly, how to pursue your body composition goals in a way that's sustainable, flexible, and free from obsession.If you've ever felt anxious about eating "off plan," guilt-ridden after enjoying birthday cake, or isolated because of your food rules, this episode is your permission slip to do things differently.What You'll Learn:What orthorexia actually is (and what it's NOT—having goals isn't disordered)Why perfectionist, high-achieving moms are especially prone to orthorexic patternsThe key signs that your "healthy eating" has crossed into disordered territoryHow to tell the difference between healthy structure and rigid food rulesThe science behind why restriction and food anxiety actually sabotage fat lossHow to pursue body composition goals WITHOUT obsession, anxiety, or rigid rulesWhy your relationship with food is affecting your kids more than you thinkA practical roadmap for building flexible structure around nutritionHow to have both food freedom AND make progress toward your health goalsPerfect For:High-achieving moms who meal prep and eat "clean" but feel anxious about foodWomen who have body composition goals but suspect their relationship with food isn't healthyPerfectionist moms who struggle with all-or-nothing thinking around nutritionAnyone who's ever felt guilty, stressed, or isolated because of their food choicesMoms who want sustainable fat loss and muscle building without sacrificing their mental healthKey Takeaways✅ Orthorexia is not just about weight, it's about purity and control. It's an obsessive fixation on "clean" eating that can damage your physical health, mental health, and relationships.✅ Having body composition goals is NOT the same as having an eating disorder/ disordered eating. The difference is in the how, the why, and the cost—not whether you care about what you eat.✅ Perfectionist moms are especially vulnerable. Research shows that socially prescribed perfectionism aka the pressure to excel at everything is one of the strongest predictors of orthorexic behavior.✅ Rigid food rules actually sabotage your results. Chronic food anxiety elevates cortisol, restriction leads to metabolic adaptation, and the all-or-nothing cycle keeps you stuck in yo-yo patterns.✅ You don't have to choose between food freedom and fat loss. Flexible structure—intention without obsession—leads to better long-term results than rigid rules ever will.✅ Your kids are watching and learning from your relationship with food. Healing orthorexic patterns isn't just about you—it's about breaking a generational cycle.✅ Self-compassion isn't soft, it's strategic. Research shows self-compassion leads to MORE consistent behavior change than self-criticism, especially for perfectionist
In manufacturing, the biggest constraint isn't labor, equipment, or margins. It's time! When you're crunched for time or feel like you're constantly fighting fires, you lose out on valuable opportunities for curious conversations and stronger connections. Overtime, this can lead to issues like communication breakdowns, slowed productivity, and a culture where people are burnt-out and not showing up as their best selves. In this episode, I'm joined by guest Brian Herriot to take a look into how manufacturing leaders can rethink work, leadership, and scheduling to build stronger team . . . without burning people out or lowering standards. Brian is an author and speaker who draws on his own successful business experiences to help others design clear, actionable small business and money management strategies and build their path toward sustainable freedom. He's also the author of the upcoming book Time Freedom: Rethink Your Work and Money to Create a Life You Love Now. In this episode, Brian uses his practical, human-centered approach to tackle topics like why traditional shift models are breaking down, how time freedom shows up on the shop floor, and what leaders can do right now to improve engagement, retention, and ownership. 02:10 – Frontline leadership must acknowledge that traditional manufacturing management models no longer align with modern workplace culture or employee engagement in manufacturing. 03:30 – Gen Z expects leadership in manufacturing plants to adapt to their lives, not the other way around 06:55 – Great manufacturing culture comes from seeing teams as humans first, not just labor inputs on the production line 09:10 –Employee ownership models and open-book management strengthen trust in leadership, manufacturing relationships, and accountability in manufacturing 11:25 – Manufacturing retention improves when leaders focus on team engagement in manufacturing rather than just output and efficiency 12:45 –Frontline leaders must recognize that many employees juggle multiple jobs and need coaching in manufacturing that supports life beyond the plant 14:10 – Flexible schedules, job sharing, and project-based roles can close the showing up gap while improving manufacturing innovation and retention 15:35 – Time Freedom as a Leadership Strategy Leadership transformation happens when manufacturing leaders design roles that allow experienced workers to scale back without fully exiting 18:55 –Helping employees understand their financial future reduces anxiety and strengthens employee engagement in manufacturing 22:35 –Deeper conversations about money, time, and work build emotional intelligence, vulnerability in leadership, and a stronger coaching culture Connect with Brian Herriot Learn more about Time Freedom Pre-order Time Freedom and use the code Trevor to get free access to the audiobook
Want to grow a billion-dollar business? You need better systems, not just better ideas.Adam James has had a front-row view as Energy Impact Partners has scaled from a $500M fund into a multi-billion-dollar force as a clean energy VC. But, as he shares, the secret to success isn't capital or flashy pitch decks. It's an obsession with infrastructure, team building, and doing the messy work of aligning people and process.In this candid conversation, Adam breaks down his methodology for scaling fast-growing organizations. From audits and goal-setting to the surprisingly overlooked art of hiring with intentionality. He also shares why most business books are garbage (except one), and why being “like bamboo” might be your best leadership model.Expect to learn:

With the first WorldTour race of the season, The Tour Down Under, already done and dusted, we review the action in Australia plus other early-season racing and talking points from the week in professional cycling. Daniel Friebe and Lionel Birnie are joined by Rob Hatch, who was on the ground to see Jay Vine take his second TDU overall victory. After his masterclass with Vine on the Corkscrew climb early in the week, Jhonatan Narváez's crash threatened to derail UAE's race. Happily for them, Vine couldn't be shaken – not even by bushfires or a kangaroo running amok in the peloton. The other hot topic of the week was Jonas Vingegaard's crash on a training ride near Málaga, amid suggestions that he was trying to shake off an amateur who wanted to tag along. We ask whether cycling fans have a “stalking” problem – or whether it's the riders who need to change their attitude.

Should you retire the second you hit financial independence, or is there value in working just a little longer? Steven faced this exact decision at 40 and chose to work four more years. The result? He added $1 million to his net worth and entered retirement at 44 with $3.5 million and a bulletproof plan. In this conversation, Steven shares his complete early retirement strategy, including why he delayed retirement past his FI number, how those extra years set him up for flexible spending of $120K-$180K annually, and the specific withdrawal tactics he uses to optimize taxes and health insurance subsidies.

The Cycling Podcast returns to recap the action from the first three stages and the latest news from the pro peloton.Daniel Friebe, Lionel Birnie, and our very own in-house professional cyclist Larry Warbasse discuss UAE Team Emirates' rip-roaring start to the year, as well as the predictions we didn't get from Larry last week. There is a detailed meditation on Larry's 14-year search for the perfect training formula—and the peloton's broader search for equilibrium in a sport that is increasingly data-obsessed, sometimes at the expense of mental and physical wellbeing.Derek Gee-West certainly experienced his share of emotional turmoil while attempting to change teams last autumn.
