In this episode, host Dan Karnuta welcomes Kevin Kumler, president and general manager of Levanto, to discuss how the Baylor Scott & White Health-backed platform is redefining employer-sponsored wellness. Kumler explains that Levanto brings multiple health solutions — such as weight management, musculoskeletal care, mental health support and nurse triage — into one integrated app, reducing fragmentation and personalizing care across conditions and life stages. The goal is to extend trusted health system expertise beyond hospital walls and help employees stay healthy instead of waiting until issues become acute. The conversation highlights Levanto's value to employers: lowering unnecessary costs, improving productivity and enhancing benefits offerings through a simple per-member-per-month model that works alongside existing insurance plans. Kumler also outlines how AI supports both operational efficiency and patient-facing tools, while emphasizing a blended "AI plus human" approach to care. Overall, the episode positions integrated, employer-focused wellness as a practical step toward a more sustainable healthcare system. Karnuta is an associate professor in the Naveen Jindal School of Management's Organizations, Strategy and International Management Area as well as director of its Professional Program in Healthcare Management.

In this week's episode of the Xtalks Life Science Podcast, host Ayesha Rashid, Senior Life Science Journalist at Xtalks, spoke with Andrea Wilkinson, Global Head of Patient Engagement & Advocacy, Epilepsy & Neuromuscular at UCB, a company dedicated to developing solutions for autoimmune and neurological conditions, including epilepsy. The company has a growing commitment to addressing unmet needs in rare neurological diseases and underserved patient populations. With fewer than 5% of clinical trials including pregnant women, major knowledge gaps persist, particularly for women with epilepsy. In this episode, we look at new research that used social media listening across several countries to uncover treatment fears, uncertainty and barriers women face during pregnancy and motherhood, and what must change to better support informed decision-making. While epilepsy is not considered a rare disease, epilepsy in pregnancy represents a small, clinically complex population that faces unique risks and persistent care gaps. Andrea is a biotech and health tech executive who has led strategic product launches for over 30 breakthrough biopharmaceutical therapies. Focused on improving outcomes for patients, particularly in rare diseases, she has worked with early- to late-stage launch teams at AstraZeneca/MedImmune, Takeda and Sanofi Pasteur. She develops platform tools, stakeholder roadmaps and patient-centered advocacy campaigns to support first-in-class medicines and address access, reimbursement, regulatory and commercial barriers. Andrea is also an angel investor with Pipeline Angels and serves on the boards of Project Open Hand and the HBA Pacific Region. She holds a BA from Louisiana Tech University. Tune in to learn more about the unmet needs, challenges and advancements in the rare disease and epilepsy spaces.

Edith Targonski arrived to the United States from Peru when she was 19 years old. Her sister had arrived a few years before and she was so happy about being reunited with her, but unhappy to speak English. She had visited the U.S. numerous times prior to her move but didn't know much English and lacked confidence in her speaking skills. She soon met a fellow immigrant from Poland, who arrived at 17 years old with his parents. They fell in love and got married. Edith and her husband created a beautiful family blending and honoring their individual cultures from South America and Poland, while building their own family traditions. They learned English and raised their children in an English speaking household but also exposed their children to Spanish and Polish for them to have the opportunity to communicate with their grandparents and broaden their horizons. Since arriving twenty seven years ago, Edith has been very motivated to learn, grow her career and serve the community. She earned a special education degree from Sacred Heart Univ, and was an effective classroom teacher for many years. Currently, she serves as a passionate advocate for families who have children with special needs. She is a business development consultant. She has been a dedicated volunteer to many organizations, giving credit to her father for her need to give back and learning this from watching him. She has graduated about 9 senior citizens who have achieved citizenship under her tutelage at the Stamford Senior Center. She currently serves in the role of Editor-in-Chief of Latincolors magazine, which is a bilingual magazine that is widely circulated throughout Fairfield County, CT. and Westchester County, NY. The mission of Latincolors is to bridge both geographical and cultural communities and celebrate the accomplishments and endeavors of the people, agencies, groups and organizations making a positive impact in the community. It is available in both English and Spanish and is a free publication and available online. Like many other guests on the podcast, she was enrolled in the PLTI (Parent Leadership Training Institute). She has been a facilitator for People Empowering People-PEP and currently serves on the Design Team. In addition, she serves on numerous other boards in the community, all of them serving the immigrant and Latin communities in different ways, while raising her 3 children to be passionate, giving and kind people.

What if losing everything was actually the beginning of your greatest chapter? In this episode, Jeff Martinovich shares an extraordinary story of building and losing a billion-dollar wealth management firm and then fighting his way back from federal prison. Jeff is the founder and former CEO of MICG Investment Management, which grew to over $1 billion in assets and 100 associates in Newport News, Virginia. After the 2008 financial crisis triggered regulatory scrutiny, Jeff refused three federal plea offers, went to trial against the U.S. government, and was sentenced to 14 years in prison. But that wasn't the end. Representing himself with a number-two pencil and a manual typewriter from the prison law library, Jeff filed over 500 motions, had trial court decisions reversed five times, and got two federal judges removed, walking free nearly seven years early. Today he advises 19 companies, speaks to CEO groups worldwide, and is the author of When Not If: A CEO's Guide to Overcoming Adversity, published by Forbes Books in January 2024. Jeff lives in Norfolk, Virginia with his wife Ashley and their young children. The relationship that transformed Jeff's life: his wife Ashley. She had worked in his mortgage company years before his conviction, and about a year and a half into his prison sentence, she sent him a love letter out of the blue, saying she had always loved him and would stand by him until they won. She then drove seven hours each way to visit him once a month for seven years in what Jeff describes as a horrific prison visiting room. On the day he was released, she was waiting at the front gates to bring him home. They are now married with a young daughter, Carly, a miracle Jeff says he never deserved and considers his greatest motivation.   [00:03:40] Kurt and Kristen LudHart: The Introduction That Started It All Kevin credits Kurt and Kristen LudHart for connecting him with Jeff Jeff agrees on the power of trust-based introductions cutting through surface-level noise Demonstrates how the right relationships open doors quickly and authentically [00:04:43] What Jeff Does Today: Rebuilding After Ruin Now works with a portfolio of 19 companies, helping CEOs and management teams grow Has a team of experienced advisors; also runs a law firm and investment funds Focused on helping owners create secure jobs, community impact, and charity support Describes the last five years as a full business resurrection [00:08:02] The Backstory: Air Force Academy to Billion-Dollar Firm Attended the U.S. Air Force Academy, served at Langley Air Force Base during the First Gulf War Got his MBA at night while at Langley, then entered finance as a rookie cold-calling stockbroker Built MICG Investment Management in Newport News, VA to over $1 billion in assets and 100 associates Grew to include three hedge funds, a mortgage company, insurance company, and real estate firm [00:08:48] The 2008 Crisis and the Government Comes Knocking The 2008 financial crisis triggered regulatory crackdowns on approximately 2,000 second-tier firms MICG was too large to avoid the radar and too small to write a $200 million check to make regulators move on Jeff was offered three federal plea deals and refused all three Sentenced to 14 years in federal prison after a five-week trial [00:11:20] The Prison Law Library and 500 Motions Sent to a violent prison in New Jersey, not the minimum-security facility typical for white-collar cases Began helping other inmates with their cases, filing over 300 motions for others Through this service, taught himself federal criminal law entirely by doing Filed over 500 motions in his own case using a number-two pencil and a manual typewriter [00:12:50] The Three Pillars That Got Him Through Physical: committed to 1% improvement every day, weights and running the track, not just for protection but for endorphins and the energy to stay proactive Intellectual: read 26 classics from the prison library and discovered a love of literature he never would have found otherwise Spiritual: read the Bible front to back multiple times; got into yoga and meditation to channel his anger into something productive Key mindset: treat adversity like a marathon, not a sprint, because it will take way longer than you think [00:18:26] The Academy Roommate: From Prison to $8 Million Exit Air Force Academy roommate flew out on Jeff's second day home from prison Had several struggling companies and needed someone he could trust completely Jeff and a team of Academy basketball and rugby teammates merged four losing companies Sold to California private equity two years later for $8 million Jeff's deep pride: these men had visited him in prison when he had nothing, and this was his way of giving back [00:20:32] Ashley's Love Letter: The Relationship That Changed Everything About a year and a half into his sentence, Jeff received a love letter from Ashley, a former employee She wrote that she had always loved him and would stand by him no matter what Drove seven hours each way to visit him once a month for seven years Was waiting at the front gates the day he was released and brought him home [00:24:20] The 12-Man Room: Jumping on Tony's Back Describes a late-night prison confrontation: a large inmate named Tony began brutally beating a smaller Guatemalan man over commissary pricing Jeff had spent months helping Tony with legal paperwork to get him transferred to a minimum-security camp In the middle of the night, Jeff ran across the room and jumped on Tony's back, screaming that he was about to ruin his transfer Tony came to his senses, went back to bed, everyone survived [00:27:11] The Book and the Mission: When Not If Forbes Books published When Not If: A CEO's Guide to Overcoming Adversity in January 2024 Amazon #1 bestseller; available on Amazon and at jeffmartinovich.com Two halves: 20 lessons on how to prepare before a black swan event, and 20 lessons on what to do differently once it arrives Jeff's goal: help business leaders avoid the mistakes he made on the way up and survive the ones they can't prevent [00:30:06] Final Message: You Can Get Through Anything Life doesn't throw curve balls, it throws bazookas, and Jeff lost everything down to zero Message to anyone going through something terrible: you can get through anything, you just have to get through it Believes God gives incredible rewards on the other side of the tunnel for those who endure Humbled by how many people share their own terrible stories after his speeches, proving everyone carries something [00:32:57] Own Your Story: Turning Disadvantages Into Advantages 99% of people run and hide after catastrophic public failures; Jeff chose the opposite At the start of every meeting, he tells his story directly before anyone can Google it This transparency consistently attracts trust, admiration, and deeper connection Malcolm Gladwell's principle in action: turn disadvantages into advantages   KEY QUOTES "Don't run away. Own your story. Be as transparent and strong as you can. And when you own your story, it becomes the thing that attracts incredible people to you." - Jeff Martinovich "I literally lost a billion-dollar firm and everything down to 0.00. But what I want to give other people is hope and inspiration. You can go through anything as long as you get through it. You just gotta get through it." - Jeff Martinovich "The more people I help, the more the universe takes care of us. I learned that even in prison. The day I got home, I just started helping as many people as possible, mostly at 5 AM for free, and it has just exploded into all these blessings." - Jeff Martinovich CONNECT WITH JEFF MARTINOVICH

The new ARC Hub for HealthTech, a multimillion-euro Government investment to drive regional development by accelerating the commercialisation of cutting-edge, patient-focused research, has been officially launched at University of Galway. Focused on developing solutions to improve chronic disease management, the aim of the ARC Hub for HealthTech is to fast-track high-potential technologies in areas such as smart implants, advanced wearable medical devices, novel sensors and AI and machine learning-driven modelling. Hosted by University of Galway, in partnership with Atlantic Technological University (ATU) and RCSI University of Medicine and Health Sciences, the initiative forms part of Research Ireland's flagship Accelerating Research to Commercialisation (ARC) programme. Twenty-three projects are currently in the ARC Hub for HealthTech after being selected for their strong potential to improve patient outcomes. The launch of the ARC Hub for HealthTech – under the theme of 'Regional Roots. Global Presence' – included a showcase of some of the current projects which are being fast-tracked to commercialisation, including advanced sensory detection devices to prevent falls in elderly people and intelligent devices to help control blood pressure. Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science, James Lawless, T.D., said: "The ARC Hub for HealthTech has the potential to deliver game-changing acceleration of research commercialisation that will directly benefit individuals and communities in the West and North-West and further afield. As it continues to ramp up its operations and establish partnerships, the ARC Hub's ambitions are clear and far-reaching. I look forward to seeing the Hub progress in its endeavours, outputs and impact over the coming years." Dr Diarmuid O'Brien, Chief Executive of Taighde Éireann-Research Ireland, said: "The ARC Hub programme is one of the most proactive, imaginative and potentially disruptive programmes ever delivered by Research Ireland. Bringing together our leading researchers, entrepreneurs, investors and industry to create an environment where our best research ideas can be translated from the lab to the market represents an inclusive and scalable model for creating companies of the future." Peter Power, Head of the European Commission Representation in Ireland, said: "The ARC Hub for Health Technology is an operation of strategic importance under the European Regional Development Fund programme for the Northern and Western region. It aligns with the objective of EU Cohesion policy to support thriving innovation ecosystems for all regions. Thanks to the ARC Hub for Health Technology research will be translated into marketable products, thereby boosting the competitiveness of both the Northern and Western region and European competitiveness.'' President of University of Galway, Professor David Burn, said: "Today we are announcing more than a research and innovation entity – the ARC Hub for HealthTech is a remarkable opportunity to create a global powerhouse for healthcare in the Northern and Western regions of Ireland. With our partners and regional collaboration, we are seizing the moment to push the commercial impact of research with new supports, at a faster pace, with the overarching aim of bringing new healthcare, treatments and therapies to patients." President of Atlantic Technological University, Professor Orla Flynn, said: "ATU is delighted to be involved in the ARC Hub for HealthTech, working with our partners to advance healthtech research and innovation. Through this collaboration, we are supporting the development of new technologies, strengthening research and creating clearer pathways for bringing scientific discovery into real-world healthcare solutions. I wish the team every success in these endeavours, and to thank the funders for their support." Professor Cathal Kelly, Vice Chancellor of RCSI, said: "Improving patient outcomes must always be at th...

get strong Get Strong or Get Left Behind | Episode 592 Good morning. It's about 60 degrees and not chilly for once. And today we're talking about something that absolutely belongs in the survival category — strength. Not vibes.Not mindset.Not theory. Physical strength. If general physical preparedness isn't a prepping principle, I don't know what is. Strength Is a Survival Skill We love talking about food storage, water filters, and gear. But if you can't pull yourself up over something, drag weight, or move your own body under stress — that's a liability. There are real-world, life-or-death scenarios where being strong saves you. Pulling yourself up Lifting something off someone Carrying weight under fatigue Defending yourself You don't want to be a weak couch potato hoping your gear saves you. Establish Your Baseline Before you get strong, you need to know where you are. Four lifts tell you almost everything about your strength: Push press Back squat Deadlift Bench press Get your one-rep max on each. You don't need a fancy stat. But those numbers? They're honest. You can't improve what you don't measure. Three Months of Focused Training Here's the strategy. Not “go to the gym and mess around.”Not “move a little weight and scroll Instagram.” Focused, purposeful training. A three-month strength-building phase. Add weight weekly. Two to five pounds per lift if possible. That's progressive overload. You can't just coast forever. But you can: Push hard for 12 weeks Build real strength Maintain it through the year That's sustainable. Pick a real program. Starting Strength is solid. Don't invent your own random plan unless you know what you're doing. Nutrition: The Part Nobody Wants You can't slam Oreos and Diet Coke and expect muscle. You need: Adequate protein Sufficient calories Consistency For me, maintenance is around 2,800 calories. After eating in a deficit for a long time, ramping up to that is going to feel like work. Gaining strength without gaining fat? That's the sweet spot. Too skinny and weak? Bad.Overweight and sluggish? Also bad. There's a bell curve for health and longevity. Moderately strong.Proper hormones.Not obese.Not extreme bodybuilder huge. That's the lane. Why This Matters for Survival If you pack on strength, you can coast. You won't keep every pound forever, but you won't crash either if you maintain properly. Strength: Improves resilience Increases confidence Extends functional life Makes you harder to victimize This isn't vanity lifting. This is capability. If you had to pull yourself up right now, could you? That's the question. This is James from SurvivalPunk.com.DIY to survive.

Today Ron Simmons unpacks the latest Epstein file fallout, listing major resignations, such as Thomas Pritzker, Larry Summers, and Morgan McSweeney, as well as the arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. He uses these men to warn about how “bad company ruins good morals” for both public figures and families. He then analyzes Marco Rubio's Munich Security Conference speech on Western civilization, sovereignty, and strong allies, contrasting it with AOC's bumbling on Taiwan and Marxist definition of culture. Ron then offers practical financial advice for young families and answers listener questions on raising godly kids, government assistance, marriage prep, and why Christianity is true.

How might believers get back to offering the gifts of suffering-faith, perseverance, empathy, and hope-to those living in a literal world of hurt?People used to seek support from the Church when life got hard. But instead of providing a place for people to suffer well together, many churches today focus more on big growth, how-to programs, and positive news. If we come to value comfort over depth, chasing after more safe, predictable lives, we risk diminishing our light and His hope.In Holy Disturbance, author Karen Sjoblom aims to reacquaint people of faith with the gifts of suffering by weaving historical and current-day narratives around Reverend Addison Groff's timeless prayer, "Disturb Us, O Lord." Focused on equipping and encouraging pastors, leaders, volunteers, and congregants, Sjoblom invites the Church and Her people to move toward deeper faith and community-especially within our storms.Study how and why we've drifted from being suffering servantsRead dozens of stories from congregants, leaders, and pastors about grief, recovery, hurt, and growth within the ChurchSoak in reflection questions, meaningful practices, and leadership wisdom to map a new course for your church and community-and a renewed thirst for GodSuffering engenders messier lives but richer, deeper connections...and this is what the Church was built for. Holy Disturbance is part love letter and part wake-up call to the Church and Her people-to recognize the gifts that come from our seasons of struggle, and to share our hard-won lessons and His hope with a hurting world.About Karen:An award-winning author, freelance writer, and editor, Karen Sjoblom has had a 40-year career in healthcare, science, education, high tech, and nonprofit communications, as well as decades in faith-based nonfiction. She also co founded and ran for nine years Eve‟s Daughters, a nonprofit for single moms and their kids outside of Portland, Oregon. In addition to Holy Disturbance, she‟s published Gone for Good: Lessons from a Midlife Exodus; One: Single Mothering, Full Circle from her time with Eve‟s Daughters; two parenting books with New Leaf Press as part of the Mom2Mom series; plus a patient and family handbook on living with Lou Gehrig‟s disease. She‟s also edited several books by multiple authors. She‟s passionate about matters of faith, resilience, and re-creation: studying our stories and scars, witnessing His mercy, and stepping into our missions. She lives in the Midwest, writing, teaching, and encouraging others to know, value, and share the wisdom gained from their life-journeys with a hurting world. Follow Karen:Website: KarenSjoblom.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/karen.sjoblomLinkedIn: https:/www.linkedin.com/in/karensjoblom/

In this solo episode of Business Coaching Secrets, Karl Bryan dives deep into actionable strategies for coaches looking to get "unstuck," sign more high-end clients, and build lasting, meaningful rapport with business owners. With Rode Dog away, Karl brings raw, practical guidance on everything from lead generation and goal setting to winning the trust of seven-figure entrepreneurs and using universal truths to transform coaching practice. Key Topics Covered Strategies to Get Unstuck as a Coach Karl outlines a direct three-step process for coaches feeling stuck: get real about what you're not doing, set simple goals with clear steps, and break sabotaging habits. He drills into the importance of direct action, from reaching out to close friends and family for referrals, to building substantial prospect lists, and ramping up daily outreach efforts. Lead Generation and Goal Setting Karl emphasizes that most coaches fail simply because they aren't generating enough leads or having enough conversations with potential clients. He offers tangible frameworks for stacking the odds in your favor—like setting a goal to sign one client within seven days and reaching out consistently, no matter what obstacles arise. Building Rapport That Closes High-End Clients Success in selling coaching hinges on powerful rapport. Karl shares a proven three-step rapport-building method: genuine compliments, relatable conversations, and strategic framing (saying no to non-ideal clients to boost trust). He stresses, "People buy from people they like, and people like people like themselves." Selling to Seven-Figure vs. Smaller Business Owners Karl details the mindset differences between selling to affluent, driven business owners versus those just starting out. He shares the 10-10-80 influence frame, how to educate and impress experienced prospects, and why hunger (not mere motivation) is your #1 client selection metric. Universal Truths That Drive Success The episode wraps up with essential universal truths and time-tested advice—from the 80/20 rule and compounding wealth principles to the reality that "freedom lives in structure" and that laughter and play are keys to sustained energy and youthfulness in business. Notable Quotes "If you want to improve your closing, improve your opening. The opening is all about building rapport." "You can control your effort, not your outcome. Stack the odds in your favor with persistent action." "Lead generation isn't sexy, but it's what you're not doing and what's making you stuck." "People who read earn double what non-readers do.

Host Dr. Jay Sridhar welcomes Dr. Sarwar Zahid to unpack a recent American Journal of Ophthalmology perspective essay on the growing segment of hospital-employed ophthalmologists. They examine the appeal of the hospitalist model—shift-based work, reduced administrative burden, and work-life balance—alongside potential drawbacks, including income ceilings, RVU pressure, and burnout. The conversation broadens to declining physician ownership, the challenges of hospital call coverage, and the downstream threat to residency training. The episode finally shifts to whether a focused practice designation (FPD) could help define subspecialty expertise, improve patient care, and give ophthalmologists a stronger seat at the bargaining table.

Today's episode is a Washington focused update. When policy, capital markets, and local zoning all move in the same season, it can either create opportunity or confusion. We break it all down and make sense of the current state of multifamily in the state of Washington.

The Postal Service typically sees its best financial results in the first quarter of each fiscal year. That's because of the year-end holiday season and sometimes a surge in political mail. But USPS is starting this fiscal year with a $1.3 billion net loss. It posted a rare net profit for the same period last year. The American Postal Workers Union says USPS should focus on affordable services and improved service to win back customers. Federal News Network's Jory Heckman spoke with APWU President Jonathan Smith.

Most medical interventions are either pharmacological–prescribe a drug–or surgical–remove or repair the offending body part. If those approaches are inappropriate, doctors long for a different technology. In this episode, we discuss the development of a relatively new noninvasive technology, focused ultrasound. Doctors use it to treat conditions such as Parkinson disease or essential tremor. It […]

If you're a mission-driven leader, you don't usually have a motivation problem—you have a friction problem. Too many priorities. Too many people counting on you. Systems that reward urgency over integrity. And when that friction builds, something sneaky happens: you start confusing motion with progress. Today's Lunar New Year (Year of the Fire Horse) is a powerful “mile marker” you can use—no woo required—to cut through distraction, get discerning, and move forward with clean intention. Why this episode is worth your time You're not here for hype. You're here for clarity that holds up in real life. In this episode, I'll help you harness “new year energy” as a leadership tool, so you can stop spinning and start moving toward what actually matters. In this episode, you'll learn How to spot the friction patterns that keep you busy—but not advancing (especially over-caring and urgency loops) How to use the “Fresh Start Effect” (a real psychology concept) to create focus and follow-through at the right moment My 3-move reset to turn scattered effort into intentional action—without adding more to your plate Before you click away, I want you to do one thing: name what you're moving toward this season—not the whole master plan, just the direction. This episode is designed to help you choose the next right step with discernment, so your energy goes into progress—not just pressure. If this landed, follow the show so you don't miss next week's episode—and share this one with a mission-driven woman leader who's been carrying a lot. And leaving a quick review is the simplest way to help more of the right listeners find Heart Glow CEO. Until next week... breathe joy!

For pet owners, a diagnosis such as cancer or chronic disease often brings difficult decisions and limited treatment options, many of which involve invasive procedures. While human medicine has advanced significantly, many of these innovations have been slower to reach veterinary care, underscoring the need for more effective and less invasive approaches to animal health. In this episode of Curing with Sound, we speak with Philip Bergman, DVM, MS, PhD, DACVIM-Oncology, Veterinary Program Director at the Focused Ultrasound Foundation. Dr. Bergman oversees Foundation-funded preclinical research and the clinical studies that enroll companion animals, helping to accelerate translational progress across species.  The conversation explores emerging applications of focused ultrasound in veterinary medicine, including its potential role in treating osteosarcoma, glioblastoma, feline diabetes, and other complex conditions. Dr. Bergman also discusses the collaborative One Medicine approach and how it is advancing care for both animals and people.  Discussion highlights: One Medicine Revolution: Companion animals naturally develop many of the same diseases as humans, allowing veterinary research to inform human medicine—and vice versa—through a shared, translational approach. Breakthroughs in Standard of Care: He shares his vision for a “bench-to-bedside-to-kennel” cycle, in which insights from animal clinical trials accelerate human therapies and human breakthroughs inspire new, noninvasive treatment options for pets. The Future of Veterinary Technology: Hear about efforts to develop cost-effective, veterinary-specific focused ultrasound systems designed to bring this technology into everyday clinical practice.

In this episode, I'm exploring the power of focused, intentional touch as a tool for nervous system regulation in dogs. We'll break down three supportive modalities—massage, TTouch, and acupressure—and how each one influences the autonomic nervous system in different ways.You'll learn how these approaches can help reduce stress, improve body awareness, and support emotional regulation, especially in dogs living in chronic hyperarousal or shutdown. I'll also walk you through when touch is appropriate, when it's not, and how to begin in a way that feels safe and consent-based for your dog.If you're working with a sensitive, reactive, anxious, or easily overwhelmed dog, this episode will help you understand which type of touch may be the best fit—and how to use it thoughtfully as part of a regulation-centered support plan.dogspeak101.comdogspeakgeek.thinkific.compatreon.com/dogspeakTTouchAcupressure

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you a busy law firm owner who doesn't have much time to think about the success of your business? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, Tyson explores the transformative power of setting aside dedicated time for deep thinking and proactive problem-solving within law firms. Drawing inspiration from organizations like NASA and SpaceX, he encourages law firm leaders to regularly schedule uninterrupted time to strategize, test, and implement solutions.  Prioritizing time to think as a law firm owner is very important to ensure you run your business successfully. Tyson shares some insights on why setting time aside to think is challenging but important. Most times, a lot of people are multitasking and trying to get multiple things done in a short amount of time. Though this might be your reality, it is important as a law firm owner to put time aside to think about how things are going for your firm. Especially if you are wanting to make your firm better. You need to think about how that will happen. If you take dedicated time to think about it, you can bring it to your team to get ideas flowing and start working towards that idea or goal.Thinking time needs to be scheduled and communicated to your team in order for it to work. Figure out the time of day where you are the sharpest. Maybe it's a 1 hour block in the morning, a quick 20 minute block in the early afternoon or right before bed. Decide what time works best for thinking and put it in your calendar. It is crucial to communicate this thinking time to your team so they don't disrupt it to ensure you can focus. Also, any ideas that come from this dedicated thinking time should be provided to your team so they know what you are expecting of them.Listen in to learn more!2:26 The Challenge of Prioritizing Thinking Time5:45 Proactive Problem-Solving vs. Reactive Management13:42 Scheduling and Communicating Thinking Time16:43 Common Traits of Successful Law Firms18:51 The Power of Focused, Uninterrupted Problem Solving Tune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here. 

1. The Case at the Supreme Court The case is Trump v. Vos Selections, argued on Nov. 5, 2025. Small businesses are challenging Trump-era tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). 2. Central Legal Questions Does IEEPA’s power to “regulate imports” include authority to impose tariffs? Did Congress delegate too much taxing authority to the President?→ This triggers two major constitutional doctrines: Non‑Delegation Doctrine – Congress cannot hand over core lawmaking powers (like taxation) without clear limits. Major Questions Doctrine – Major economic or political actions require explicit congressional authorization. 3. Constitutional Tension Article I, Section 8 gives Congress the power to: Lay and collect taxes/tariffs Regulate commerce with foreign nations Tariffs sit at the intersection of foreign policy (executive power) and taxation (legislative power). 4. Oral Argument Themes Justices skeptical of Trump’s argument: Roberts – Concerned tariffs are fundamentally taxes on Americans, which is Congress’s domain. Gorsuch & Barrett – Pressed the need for clear statutory limits; worried about unchecked executive authority. Justices leaning toward upholding the tariffs: Kavanaugh – Emphasized long history of broad presidential discretion in foreign affairs. Thomas – Focused on historical practice of using tariffs as trade tools. Alito – Concerned about practical impacts and the large reliance interests ($133B already collected). 5. Predicted Outcome (from the document’s speaker) Expected ruling: 5–4 in favor of Trump, upholding tariff authority. Predicted majority: Roberts, Thomas, Alito, Kavanaugh + either Barrett or Gorsuch. Reasoning: Court is reluctant to disrupt years of foreign policy and economic decisions already relying on the tariffs. Institutional stability concerns—similar to Roberts’ reasoning in the Affordable Care Act case. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
