What you love2. What you're good at3. What people want to watch• Post 2x per week consistently• Don't overthink quality yet3) Months 5-8 (Improvement Phase):• Generate 100 video ideas weekly• Make 3 thumbnails per video• Study outlier content in your niche• Switch to 1 high-quality video per week• Focus on packaging (title + thumbnail)4) Months 9-12 (Optimization Phase):• Analyze your top 10% performing videos• Double down on what works• Spend 4 hrs/week studying YouTube• Make small 1% improvements each video• Build systems for consistent output5) The Golden Rule of Audience Overlap:Each video should have 80%+ audience overlap with your other content. If someone watches one of your videos, they should want to watch MOST of your other videos too.6) Thumbnail Psychology:• Use the "3 Focus Areas" rule• Pass the "Glance Test" (1-second viewability)• Max 4-5 words of text• Make it bright and clear• Being good at graphic design ≠ good at thumbnails7) Smart Title Strategy:• Keep under 60 characters• Use simple, universal language• Include superlatives when possible• Write for humans, not algorithms• Grade A readability score (7-8 year old level)8) The CCN Framework for Ideas:Every video should appeal to:• Core audience• Casual viewers• New viewers9) The Video Idea Pipeline:Start with 100 ideas → Filter to 10 strong ones → Pick the best one10) The ROI reality:• Expect 12 months minimum before seeing real returns• Need 50+ videos to find your groove• Success = Volume + Quality + Consistency• Best converting platform after email• Worth the long-term investmentRemember: YouTube is a game of marginal gains.Notable Quotes:"YouTube is not a video platform... before making a video, you need to understand what video to make, the strategy behind choosing ideas, packaging." - Paddy Galloway"If you're going to do something for 12 months on YouTube, you have to be willing to eat shit for a long time before it might pay off." - Paddy GallowayLCA helps Fortune 500s and fast-growing startups build their future - from Warner Music to Fortnite to Dropbox.

Ten years ago, I wrote a small book. It was my response to the frustration I observed some harpists experiencing. These harpists were diligent in their practice and dedicated to doing everything right. But they still weren't able to play their music the way they wanted. Some told me that they just couldn't get the notes, the fingering and the placing correct. Others said they couldn't get their music anywhere near an appropriate tempo. Some couldn't look at their hands and the music at the same time. Others couldn't make their music flow. And none of them seemed to be able to discover a solution to their problem. I started asking harpists questions, in order to find out a little more about what the real source of each of the issues might be. What I discovered was that, although the symptoms manifested differently in each individual, there was really only one problem, one that all of them shared. No one had ever told them how to practice. What I discovered in my own harp journey was that practice really wasn't about what I thought it was. It isn't enough just to play something over and over again until it's right. The goal of practice isn't perfection; it's music. When your practice isn't helping you make music, you can be pretty sure you're doing it wrong. The right kind of practice starts with the right kind of focus. I'm not talking about mindset or concentration. I'm talking about practicing for the results you want, the results that are more than the right notes, results like flow, expression and musicality. That was the starting point for my book. Kaleidoscope Practice: Focus, Finish and Play the Way You've Always Wanted. I used the word focus to describe five focus areas which can serve to direct your practice so that you can actually play the music you start. I'd like to explain those focus areas to you today and give you some of my favorite practice tweaks that may revolutionize the way you think about your practice, the way they revolutionized mine.

In this episode of Fund/Build/Scale, I interviewed Amex Ventures Managing Director Kevin Weber about some of the nuances between traditional VC and corporate venture capital. It's quite a mix: he's looking for founders who can create value for individual American Express cardholders and the firm itself, so we talked about what types of opportunities he's looking for, some of the problems he's trying to solve, and the role risk plays in pushing organizational boundaries. “In many cases, I actually want to take more risk in some of the investments that I'm going to make because that risk and the investment that I'm making for the potential opportunity that I could have to American Express is likely worth the bet,” he said. If you're interested in pitching Amex Ventures or another CVC, listen in for insights on fintech, AI, and e-commerce investments, the importance of aligning startup strategies with corporate goals, and key advice for first-time founders on fundraising and market positioning.

Summary The conversation revolves around the experiences of three medical students, Chandler Johnson, Payton Smith, and Kathryn Haran, who traveled to Kenya to collaborate with UCSF Dermatology and MTRH Dermatology. They discuss their role in sharing knowledge, establishing partnerships, and enhancing dermatology care and research. The discussion also touches on the future of global health, mentorship, and the impact of the trip on their careers. Takeaways Collaborative efforts in global health involve sharing knowledge and resources to enhance dermatology care and research. Global health initiatives don't necessarily require international travel and can have a profound impact locally. Mentorship and cultural humility play a significant role in global health endeavors and future career aspirations. The use of social media and technology can be leveraged to promote dermatology care and education in resource-limited communities. The impact of mentorship and the multiplier effect of training mentees in global health initiatives are essential for sustainable advancement in skin health.

Last year, Mongabay launched a brand-new bureau dedicated to covering the African continent daily in French and English. The team is led by veteran Cameroonian journalist David Akana, who chats with co-host Mike DiGirolamo about the importance of covering the African continent and why news that happens there is of keen interest to audiences worldwide. Akana details his team's coverage priorities, including solutions-oriented stories, which he says are vital to delivering a fair picture of the continent. "The bottom line here is that whatever happens – whether it's in the business of forests [or] biodiversity or climate change in the Congo Basin [it] has linkages to anywhere else in the world," he says.
