Working hard and working effectively aren't the same thing. In this episode, I break down the four types of action I teach my coaching clients: passive action, inaction, forced action, and inspired action.You'll learn why "doing research" can quietly become a way of avoiding the real work, why hustle culture praises forced action even when it's exhausting and off-target, and what inspired action actually feels like when you're in it. I share a simple way to prime yourself for inspired action on purpose, instead of waiting for motivation to strike.If you've ever felt busy but stuck, this episode will help you see exactly where you've been spending your energy, and how to shift it.Free resource mentioned: The 90-Minute Coaching Business Blueprint: candymotzek.lpages.co/vfo/
Where do you actually do your best and most important work?Work does not always happen where, when, or how people expect it to happen. In episode 275 of At The Table, Pat Lencioni and Cody Thompson explore why thinking, brainstorming, reflecting, and solving problems should count just as much as the visible activity people typically associate with productivity. They challenge leaders to create cultures that measure people by meaningful contribution and results rather than how busy they appear at their desks.Topics explored in this episode: (00:00) Where Does Work Really Happen?Pat questions whether traditional work hours and office spaces accurately reflect when people are actually doing their most valuable work.Cody expands the conversation by asking a more fundamental question: what should actually qualify as work?(03:43) Making Space for Different Kinds of WorkPat explains why choosing to stay away from the office for an hour of focused creative thinking can sometimes be more productive than immediately sitting at a desk.Pat and Cody discuss how personality, Working Genius, and the nature of a person's responsibilities can influence where and how that person works best.(07:27) What Leaders Should MeasurePat challenges CEOs to consider whether they want employees thinking about their work outside traditional work hours and argues that overly rigid boundaries can discourage that engagement.Cody pushes the idea further by questioning why computer work and task completion are so often treated as more legitimate than meetings, conversations, and creative thought.(10:57) The Four Types of WorkPat introduces a two-by-two framework that divides work into thinking versus doing and collective versus solitary.The conversation explores why each type of work may require a different setting and why organizations should deliberately create room for thinking rather than defaulting constantly to execution.(14:32) Effectiveness Over Visible ProductivityPat argues that healthy cultures can give people more freedom over how they work while still expecting meaningful results.Pat and Cody conclude that organizations should judge contribution by the work that actually needs to be accomplished rather than whether productivity is visibly demonstrated through desk time and constant activity.This episode of At The Table with Patrick Lencioni is brought to you by The Table Group: www.tablegroup.com.

Intuition doesn't speak to us in just one way. In this episode, Susan Jane breaks down the four main types of intuition, physical, emotional, visual, and mental, and how each one shows up differently in everyday life. From an itchy palm signalling something on its way, to a split second reaction that may have saved her life on the road, Susan shares personal stories that bring each type to life. You'll come away with a clearer sense of how your own intuition might already be speaking to you, even in ways you hadn't recognised yet.
Recap: The Text We Are StudyingWe are studying Al-Ghayah wa't-Taqrib, a classical short-form manual of fiqh written by Imam Abu Shuja'. Despite its brevity, this small text has been memorised and studied for close to a thousand years — from Cairo to Java, West Africa to Hadramaut. We are now continuing that same chain of transmission here in Western Australia.What Is Fiqh?* Literal meaning: deep understanding* Technical meaning: ma'rifatul ahkam al-shar'iyyah — knowledge of the rulings of the Shari'ah* These rulings apply to the af'al al-mukallafin — the actions of a mukallaf, a person legally responsible before AllahMukallaf = someone the Shari'ah holds responsible. A child in a car who isn't wearing a seatbelt isn't fined — the responsible adult driving is. In the same way, the rulings of fiqh apply to those who are accountable (typically, those who have reached puberty and are of sound mind).The Five Categories of Rulings (Al-Ahkam al-Khamsah)Every human action falls under one of five rulings:1. Wajib (Compulsory)* Do it → reward. Don't do it → sin.* Examples: the five daily prayers, Hajj2. Mandub / Sunnah (Recommended)* Do it → reward. Don't do it → neutral (no sin).* Examples: washing three times during wudu, the two rak'ahs of sunnah before salah, fasting on Mondays and Thursdays, showering on Fridays* Important: reward for a sunnah requires intention. Showering on Friday only counts as the sunnah if you intend it — and it must be done on Friday itself, not the day before.3. Mubah (Permissible)* Do it → neutral. Don't do it → neutral.* Examples: drinking water, eating, reading a book, breathing* This is the default and largest category. The original ruling of anything is Mubah. To move something out of Mubah into wajib or haram, evidence is required.4. Makruh (Disliked)* Do it → neutral. Don't do it → reward.* Example: eating with the left hand (for someone able to use their right); eating something smelly like garlic or onions and then going to the masjid5. Haram (Prohibited)* Do it → sin. Don't do it → reward.* Examples: drinking wine, eating porkCase Study: Rulings Can Change with New CircumstancesTwo examples from the class discussion show how a ruling on the same category of item can shift as knowledge or context changes:SmokingSmoking was historically classed as makruh, on the same basis as garlic — an unpleasant smell. Doctors did not originally know with certainty that smoking was harmful to health; some even believed it had a calming effect. It was only in the past century, once it was conclusively established that smoking causes lung cancer, that many scholars reclassified it as haram — because causing harm to oneself is haram, and smoking was now proven to cause serious harm.CoffeeCoffee has an interesting history in Islamic scholarship:* Coffee beans were first eaten in Ethiopia before being ground into a drink.* A Yemeni scholar, Sheikh Ali bin Umar al-Shadhili, repeatedly asked Allah for the strength to pray qiyam al-layl (night prayer) like the pious predecessors. He was inspired in a dream to grind and boil the coffee bean. It helped him stay awake for dhikr and night prayer — so coffee became strongly linked with worship.* Imam al-Haddad of Hadramaut said the clinking sound of coffee cups would make shaytan flee — meaning that coffee became associated with gatherings of dhikr.* As coffee spread to Mecca and beyond, some scholars observed young people becoming very animated after drinking it and grew concerned. Coffee's Arabic name, qahwa, is also an old word for wine — which added to the suspicion. Some scholars declared it haram.* The dispute was settled in a memorable way: scholars who held that coffee was haram were invited to a gathering where coffee was served without them knowing what it was. They enjoyed its effects — clarity of mind and energy — and once told it was the very drink they had prohibited, they retracted their ruling.* Coffee was also banned for a period in parts of the Christian world. Coffee houses later became historically significant as centres of discussion and, in some places, political change — in contrast to pubs, where alcohol limited clear thinking and planning.Lesson: Mubah is the default of all things. Mubah can shift to wajib (e.g. drinking water becomes obligatory if withholding it endangers life) or to haram (e.g. a permissible game becomes haram if it causes someone to neglect their prayers).Revision: The Four Types of WaterBefore moving on, we revised last week's material on water, the subject of the first chapter of most fiqh texts — Purification (Tahara).Why does every fiqh text begin with purification?Purification of the body mirrors the deeper objective of all worship: purification of the heart. On the Day of Judgement, neither wealth nor children will benefit a person — only a sound heart returned to Allah, and a soul that has been purified rather than corrupted.The Four Types of Water* Mutlaq — pure and purifying. Naturally occurring water: rain, sea, river, well, spring, snow, hail (the seven natural waters).* Mushammas — pure, but disliked (makruh) to use on the skin in specific conditions: water heated by the sun in a metal container in a hot region. It remains makruh only until it cools; a plastic container causes no such concern.* Musta'mal — previously used water. Still pure and fine to drink, but it has already been used to lift a hadath (in wudu or ghusl) and cannot be used to lift a hadath again. The same applies to water mixed with something pure that changes its taste, smell, or colour (e.g. coffee, soap, lemon) — it stays drinkable, but can no longer be used for wudu or ghusl.* Mutanajjis — impure water, contaminated by najasah (impurity). Cannot be used for wudu, ghusl, drinking, or washing — unless its volume reaches two qullah (roughly 200 litres), in which case a small amount of najasah does not affect it, provided the water's colour, smell, or taste has not changed. If it has changed, remove the source of contamination and the water may be purified again.This Week's Practice: Polishing the HeartThe Prophet ﷺ said that everything has a polish, and the polish for the heart is dhikr (remembrance of Allah). This week's homework is to recite the following daily, ideally before sleeping (roughly 10 minutes in total):* Astaghfirullah al-'Azim (”I seek the forgiveness of Allah, the Most Great”) — 100 times* Allahumma salli ‘ala Sayyidina Muhammadin wa alihi wa sahbihi wa sallim(sending blessings on the Prophet ﷺ) — 100 times* La ilaha illallah (”There is no god but Allah”) — 100 times, followed once by Muhammadun Rasulullah (”Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah”)Students should track which days they complete this, ready to discuss next week.Key Terms Glossary* Fiqh — Islamic jurisprudence; knowledge of the rulings of the Shari'ah* Mukallaf — a person legally responsible/accountable under Shari'ah* Wajib — compulsory* Mandub / Sunnah — recommended* Mubah — permissible/neutral (the default ruling)* Makruh — disliked* Haram — prohibited* Tahara — purification* Mutlaq water — pure, naturally occurring water that purifies* Mushammas water — sun-heated water in a metal container (makruh to use on skin while hot)* Musta'mal water — previously used water; pure but cannot remove hadath again* Mutanajjis water — water contaminated by impurity (najasah)* Najasah — ritual impurity* Qullatayn / two qullah — a measure of water volume (approx. 200 litres) above which small impurities don't contaminate the water* Dhikr — remembrance of AllahSelf-Test Questions* What are the five categories that every human action falls under?* Give one example each of a wajib act and a mandub act.* What is the default ruling (the category everything starts in) for any action or object?* Give one example of something that started as makruh and later became haram, and explain why the ruling changed.* List the four types of water and give one distinguishing feature of each.* How much water (in litres) is generally needed for small amounts of najasah not to contaminate it?* What three phrases of dhikr were set as this week's homework, and how many times should each be recited?

Caroline Stokes tells CEOs something most of them don't want to hear: the AI question everyone is asking is the wrong one. She is the founder of FORWARD, a human capital solutions firm for pioneers, and the author of AfterShock to 2030: A CEO's Guide to Reinvention in the Age of AI, Climate, and Societal Collapse. Named to the Thinkers50 Radar Class of 2026, she was shortlisted for the Thinkers50 Leadership Award for a book she deliberately published digital-only to keep its carbon footprint near zero. Her route here was unusual. Raised between the UK and Singapore before the age of ten, she went from PR at Virgin to the early PlayStation team, then to executive search, then to coaching, and then back to school three separate times during and after the pandemic to study ESG at MIT, AI business strategy, and the new space economy. She is neurodivergent, and she credits that with how she reads systems and spots what a room is missing. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ WHAT CAROLINE COVERS IN THIS EPISODE 1. THE FOUR SHOCKS ALREADY HERE Economic instability, climate disruption, AI acceleration and societal fragmentation are not separate agenda items. They are one interconnected system, and leaders who treat them separately are already behind. 2. WHY AI IS THE WRONG FIRST QUESTION Yes, learn it, the way you had to learn email in 1994. But the question a board should actually be asking is how long the organisation can sustain itself at all. 3. THE CEOs WHO ARE QUITTING INSTEAD OF ADAPTING Many are cashing in their chips rather than building the polymathic organisations this moment demands. Caroline explains who she will and will not work with. 4. THE 100-DAY REINVENTION Built after she watched leaders at a top-three technology company shrug off a mandate from their new CEO with "it'll take two years." Her warning to them: you will be laying people off before that. 5. FIGHT, FLIGHT, FREEZE, FAWN The four avatars every leader defaults to under conflict. Not knowing yours is how you quietly sabotage your own strategy. 6. CLIMATE AS AN OPERATING CONSTRAINT Not an ESG line item. If your people are breathing smoke and getting migraines, the work does not happen. Maslow, applied to the modern workforce. 7. THINK LIKE A SCIENTIST OR AN ARTIST Michelangelo started with a block of marble and no finished image. Everyone has to start somewhere in a reality with no playbook. 8. HER ADVICE TO WOMEN LEADING RIGHT NOW Follow the curiosity that keeps stalking you. Ask what your seven-year-old self would want from you, and then go learn something new. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ABOUT CAROLINE STOKES Founder of FORWARD and a global leadership strategist for the Fifth Industrial Revolution. A Sony alum who worked on the PlayStation launch and a PCC-level, EQ 2.0-certified coach, she moved from executive headhunting into leadership reinvention. She is the author of AfterShock to 2030 (2025) and Elephants Before Unicorns (Entrepreneur Press, 2019), and a co-author of the HBR Guide to Navigating the Toxic Workplace (2024). Her 2019 TEDx talk predicted the convergence of AI, climate and societal disruption now shaping boardrooms.

People of Peacemaking | Proverbs 1 Conflict isn't just about what happened. It's about who you're dealing with. Before Solomon teaches us how to speak wisely, forgive wisely, or make peace wisely, he teaches us to recognize four different kinds of people: the simple, the young, the fool, and the wise. Each requires a different response. In this first message of our *Formed by Peacemaking* series, we'll discover why misdiagnosing a person's character often leads to making conflict worse—and why the first person a peacemaker must honestly identify is themselves. In this message you'll learn: * Why Proverbs is about wisdom, not just knowledge. * The four types of people Solomon introduces. * The difference between the untrained, unproven, unteachable, and unoffendable. * How the fear of God and life's tests reveal our character. * Why biblical peacemaking begins with confession before correction.

In the first half of their podcast Better Thinking Faster, Josh Howell, Mark Reich, and Art Smalley discussed solving problems just in time and how the speed of quality problem solving depends on the level of the organization and the types of problems to be found there. In this second half of the podcast, they examine unique traits of problem solving at Toyota that help employees — frontline to senior executives — solve problems better and faster, characteristics that many companies attempting to be lean fail to grasp. Create Experiential Learning Many leaders attempt to apply lean based on reading about it and the management processes and tools involved, says Art, Toyota veteran and author of Four Types of Problems. That's helpful, but it lacks lean problem-solving experiences. For example, working on a line and solving many small problems daily provides formative learning within Toyota that's carried forward as a team member advances into management and executive ranks. “Many of us who encounter these ideas later in life, when we're at higher levels in our career and in our organizations, don't always get that opportunity,” says Josh, LEI President. He admires Toyota for onboarding individuals, even white-collar executives, by throwing them onto the line “to work at that level of detail and all the opportunity that could be found therein, to just set a mindset that can be very useful to you even as you get into higher level, longer cycle time, more ambitious, more complex work.” So what is an executive, without Toyota-like onboarding and problem-solving experiences, supposed to do? Mark, LEI Chief Engineer Strategy and author of Managing on Purpose, says they can at least go to line, to where the work is done, and experience it by observing. He's seen executives who, when going to the frontline, are astounded by “the amount of difficult, unnecessary, frustrating work that happens minute to minute, day to day.” That helps them to experience the precise nature of work and problems there, but they also must care “that people shouldn't have to work that way, and people are working like that in many organizations. I think Toyota leaders cared, and not just about the shopfloor ... but about everybody in the organization and that everybody in the organization had value-creating work.” Art sees it as LEI's purpose to close the learning gap among leaders not coming out of Toyota and somehow help executives gain the experiences he and Mark encountered when working there: “Mark and I got it through line work, working in Toyota, and in our careers of seeing it at various levels. Other people need to kind of come to that awareness, have the fish scales removed from their eyes in different ways.” Examine the Process behind Outcomes Toyota's unique approach to problem solving includes an obsession with going well beyond the cause of a problem to determine how a process or processes contributed to the outcome and cause. Art cites the example of a failed launch at one of Toyota's overseas plants. Equipment vendor problems contributed to poor outcomes. Instead of citing “failed vendor, not our problem” and moving on, every aspect of the business pertaining to precision equipment that went to overseas operations was thoroughly analyzed to ensure the next overseas launch would be better than the last. It turns out a variety of documentation, support materials, and training that accompanied equipment going overseas was poor, and Toyota worked for a year or more to make it right. “Toyota is very good about thinking about the process that led to the end result,” says Art. “Most people want to be critical and criticize the end result. Toyota will go back, back, back, back, back. What were our initial assumptions and thought processes and conditions that led us down this path?” Mark and Art say this approach is not for Toyota to find blame, but to ensure it does not happen again: 5 Whys not the 5 Whos. Solve All Problems, Big and Small The trio discussed how Toyota veterans on the frontline are capable of repeatedly finding and solving hundreds of small problems in the work they have been doing for years. That extent of problem solving on the frontlines is much less common outside of Toyota, where there is likely to be an overemphasis on bigger leadership problems and decisions. “A lot of organizations look at the decisions and the problems that leaders are solving as key,” says Mark. “Toyota sees that the team member finding those 120 issues in their job is as important to the company as the CEO and the decisions they're making.” Toyota wants to be solving small problems fast before they can become big problems. “A lot of organizations tend to wait [and] only have a system to solve problems once they're big,” adds Mark. “But, in fact, if we can solve a hundred problems fast, like at lower levels in the organization, those are things that won't become big problems.” In bringing the conversation back to its beginning, the trio discussed the differences of solving problems better and faster at the line and doing so in executive suites. “When you're closer to the frontline, it's much more explicit about what you need to do, but only if you frame the top well and cascaded things down, and a lot of organizations just don't do that well,” says Art. One challenge outside of Toyota is honing problem-solving capabilities among those at the top, where there are longer, slower cycles of learning for executives compared to short cycles at the frontline, according to Art. For example, when working on an annual plan, the leader may only experience the cycle two or three times before moving on, without having had enough of a learning experience to reflect and improve the process. At the frontline, the cycle is measured in seconds and experienced countless times daily. “We're not good, I fear, at the slower learning cycles because people just move around, and we don't have the standards mechanism to capture it and think about.” “I can't tell you the number of companies I've had the chance to interact with where the idea that, as an executive in particular, if you're a successful, high-performing, rising-in-the-organization leader and executive, if you're in the same job you're in now three years later, it's almost viewed as if you're a defect,” says Josh. “Something must have been wrong with you that you didn't get promoted or deployed to another lateral move more quickly.” Without consistency of leadership and the experiences that affords, any lean transformation will be more difficult.
A quiet week in business can mess with your head fast. One minute you're fine, the next you're wondering how to get more clients and whether you need to change everything. In this episode, I'm sharing a simple metaphor that brings you back to strategy, not panic: turn on the tap.Every business has a “tap”, a handful of actions that reliably create opportunities when you actually do them. The problem is we forget, we get busy, and we start chasing shiny new tactics instead of switching back on what already works.You'll hear the four taps I look for first: relationship taps, visibility taps, invitation taps, and generosity taps. Plus, I'll walk you through how to create your own “tap map” so you always know what to do next when things slow down.If you're ready to stop reinventing the business every time it goes quiet, this is your reset. Pick one tap, turn it on this week, and build momentum from there.Chapter Markers00:00 Business Gone Quiet00:56 Turn the Tap On01:18 Real Client Tap Wins02:37 Stop Chasing Shiny Taps03:32 Busy vs Real Taps04:08 Four Types of Taps05:39 Build Your Tap Map07:18 Find Your Top Revenue Taps07:57 From Hope to Operating System08:34 Your One Tap Challenge09:31 Wrap Up and Call to Action10:07 Podcast OutroLINKSEmma McQueen:WebsiteFor a copy of Emma's book, 'Go-getter: Raise your mojo, shift your mindset and thrive' – https://emmamcqueen.com.au/want-more/emmas-book/YouTube ChannelAugust Go-Getter Event in Brisbane: https://emmamcqueen.com.au/events/go-getter-brisbane/June Go-Getter Event in Melbourne:https://emmamcqueen.com.au/events/go-getter-day/BD Sprint:https://emmamcqueen.com.au/coaching-services/bd-sprint/Mentioned in this episode:Style BundleInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/style_bundle/Style BundleStyle BundleInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/style_bundle/

"This is why insurance is such a beautiful problem... there is no solution. There are only psychological or philosophical answers to it."What if the rising cost of health insurance is a deeply ingrained philosophical problem?My guest this week is Tom Stein, CEO of American Trust Administrators (ATA). But this episode isn't just a tactical breakdown of stop-loss and aggregate underwriting; it is a masterclass in the history, psychology, and economics of the U.S. healthcare system.Tom and I explore the deeply embedded Machiavellian forces that drive insurance carrier monopolies, and why small business owners often choose the "safe" option of a 97% fully-insured renewal simply out of a psychological fear of loss. We trace the origins of employer-sponsored care back to Henry Kaiser and WWII, discuss the ethics of "compulsion vs. choice" in taxation and single-payer models, and analyze whether the U.S. is currently in a "Fourth Turning" crisis phase of our healthcare delivery system.This is one of the most fascinating conversations you will hear all year.

"This is why insurance is such a beautiful problem... there is no solution. There are only psychological or philosophical answers to it."What if the rising cost of health insurance is a deeply ingrained philosophical problem?My guest this week is Tom Stein, CEO of American Trust Administrators (ATA). But this episode isn't just a tactical breakdown of stop-loss and aggregate underwriting; it is a masterclass in the history, psychology, and economics of the U.S. healthcare system.Tom and I explore the deeply embedded Machiavellian forces that drive insurance carrier monopolies, and why small business owners often choose the "safe" option of a 97% fully-insured renewal simply out of a psychological fear of loss. We trace the origins of employer-sponsored care back to Henry Kaiser and WWII, discuss the ethics of "compulsion vs. choice" in taxation and single-payer models, and analyze whether the U.S. is currently in a "Fourth Turning" crisis phase of our healthcare delivery system.This is one of the most fascinating conversations you will hear all year.

Time is relative, especially when it comes to lean problem solving. The LEI trio of Josh Howell, Mark Reich, and Art Smalley explored how the speed of quality problem solving really depends on the level of the organization in which the problem exists and the types of problems and thinking patterns in place at that level. In this first podcast of two, they examine what “better” and “faster” means in the lean world and how that manifests itself. There's often a debate among management circles calling for fast problem solving and change vs. slow, deliberate decision-making. Art, Toyota veteran and author of Four Types of Problems, says, “We're all trying to think better and think faster, respective to our level and the speed that governs it. But it's overly simplistic to just say ‘think slow.' You want to, all things equal, arrive at a better end result faster. In reality there are different types of problems, different patterns of thinking, and different mental gears that can be used.” Art discussed different types of problems and the different styles of work used in Toyota to address them. As outlined in his book, they are: Type 1 troubleshooting problem, such as responding to the andon signal at a frontline workstation with a 45-second cycle time, needs to be solved safely and quickly, which will often occur countless times each day because these problems involve a known problem and known solution. Type 2 problems are harder to solve and have unknown root causes and solutions, which require a more analytical mode of thinking. Type 3 problems are actually continuous improvement efforts that seek to establish a new, better target condition. Type 4 problems represent truly innovative new solutions (think hybrid powertrain technologies) that often require years of trial and error. The problem-solving work moves from convergent thinking, known standards, and highly skilled execution at the frontline to middle management using the eight steps of Toyota Business Practice that can take days or weeks, to innovation, which is slower, more deliberate, divergent, and exploratory. Josh looks back to his time at Starbucks and the problem-solving spectrum, contrasting the challenge of trying to transform a company of some 350,000 employees (“That's going to take some time, and certainly the executives don't want it to take too much time. It can't take forever.”) compared to experiencing problems in a store during peak service time when there's a new customer every 30 seconds. “The way that we were taught from our TPS and lean teachers to improve that situation, improve our performance for the customers, was to really dig into the details of what happens inside those 30 seconds.” Speed is only one facet of lean problem solving. Remember, the Toyota slogan is “Better Thinking, Better Products,” and so quality has to be part of problem-solving work. Mark (LEI Chief Engineer Strategy, author of Managing on Purpose, and also a Toyota veteran) says the quality of problem solving requires developing the capabilities of those doing the problem solving as well as the patience to take sufficient time to examine problems and come to better solutions: “We want to build the capability in the organization for leaders, for people, not just leaders, but for people at every level, to be able to produce good quality work. What's unique about Toyota is that's true in any function. We want good quality accounting work. We want good quality planning work. We want good quality work, of course, at where the products made and developed. And I think that does take time to build that capability to produce good quality, whatever function you're talking about.” The trio also discuss the: Cyclical nature of processes in which problems occur, be that a seconds-long cycle on the line, an annual cycle for formulating corporate strategy, or a decades-long span for replenishing capital equipment. At all levels, the process repeats but the problems will vary, such as market changes impacting the strategy development cycle one year to the next. Use of process cycles as learning: From frontline to the executive suite, it's not just about fixing the current problem and getting back to work, but taking the time and data to come up with better solutions and standards for future work. “There's so much here to look closely at, to analyze, to scrutinize,” says Josh. “There's so many details that we can question, and inside all of those details are potential solutions, potential improvements, kaizen points that we can make things better.” Need to involve as many people as possible in addressing problems — the work of problem detection, notification, response, and solving. Considering the number of problems that exist throughout a company and at all levels and functions, it would be impossible to meet the problem-solving demand if only top executives, management, and engineers were doing the problem solving. Toyota Production System was designed not as a system to produce things perfectly but as a framework knowing that things will not go perfectly, that there will be problems. “Build in a system that accepts and recognizes there's going to be mistakes, therefore have a system that catches and flags those, and have layers of ability stacked behind that to deal with it,” says Art. Different levels within the organization need to focus on the problem solving commensurate to their level. Josh recalls how a Starbucks executive came to a store that had transformed significantly using standardized work and structured problem solving. This leader, however, was obsessed over a low-priority Type 1 problem he noticed that eventually would be handled by the frontline team instead of giving his attention to building the store team's overall capability to identify and handle more problems on their own. The problem-solving approach of Fujio Cho, President of Toyota Motor Manufacturing Kentucky and then Toyota Motor Corp., and other Toyota executives: Art recalls a time when Cho refused to follow along on a plant tour and instead went off on his own and found a significant oil leak at a machine. Cho then immediately engaged the team in problem solving, asking questions about how it occurs and how leaders find such problems, and discussed a process to signal such abnormal and potentially dangerous conditions. He knew the plant tour was set up to be perfect, and he was looking for the right teaching moment, not to scold people, but to build the education into an actual problem rather than view a rehearsed problem on a flip chart. Look for the second part of the better-thinking-faster conversation to appear on July 28. Subscribe to LEI's newsletter at ean.org/newsletter-signup

Practice growth rarely stalls because of a lack of skill. More often, it stalls because certainty hasn't caught up with ambition. Dr. Lona and Dr. Chris Grier unpack why certainty is the true foundation of sustainable practice growth. They explore the four pillars of certainty—clinical, philosophical, communication, and business acumen—and explain how each one shapes patient trust, leadership, decision-making, and practice culture. Through practical examples and personal experiences, they demonstrate that certainty is intentionally developed through observation, experience, and continual learning. They also explain why certainty is never something you permanently achieve. It must be continually strengthened through intentional growth, allowing chiropractors to lead with greater conviction, communicate with greater clarity, and build practices that continue to thrive year after year. Key Highlights 02:28 Why certainty is one of the greatest hurdles every young chiropractor must overcome before they can truly thrive. 03:48 Why certainty is the foundation of practice growth and why volume is built on conviction first. 05:08 What pressure reveals about your philosophy, your technique, and what really comes out when you're under stress. 06:23 The first two forms of certainty every chiropractor needs to develop and how they shape patient care. 09:23 The four pillars of certainty that influence your clinical decisions, communication, leadership, and business. 11:08 Why most chiropractors naturally develop one area of certainty while the others quietly limit their growth. 12:18 The three ways certainty is developed and how observation, experience, and study work together throughout your career. 15:08 Why your team's certainty determines how far your practice can grow. 16:28 Dr. Chris and Dr. Lona share where they lacked certainty early in practice and what helped them build it. 20:33 Why certainty requires continual investment and what happens when you stop intentionally strengthening it. 22:40 Better decisions start with better data. Dr. Stephen sits down with Dr. Josiah Fitzsimmons from Success Partner Lucro to discuss insights from the 2026 State of Chiropractic Report and how Lucro helps chiropractors benchmark performance, uncover hidden opportunities, and make data-driven decisions that improve profitability and long-term growth.

This conversation with copywriter and brand strategist Courtney Fanning changed how I think about copywriting. The premise is simple (if a little uncomfortable): we all instinctively write for the type of consumer we are, and if there are four types, that means we're only effectively speaking to maybe 25% of our potential clients.Courtney shares a framework she adapted from Spanx founder Sara Blakely that breaks buyers into four types: the director, the socializer, the relator, and the thinker. Each one needs something different from your website and your copy in order to feel confident enough to reach out.Here's what we're getting into: What each of the four buyer types is actually looking for when they land on your page How to do a copy sweep to catch what's missing - without starting from scratch What testimonials, FAQs, marketing receipts, and imagery are actually doing for each buyer type Courtney's take on voice (and why it's not the be-all end-all most people think it is)LINKS:Take Courtney's quiz to find out what your buyer type is.

Have you ever decluttered a room only to watch it fill back up three months later? If so, this episode of the Clutter Free Podcast is for you. Kathi Lipp sits down with Katy Joy Wells, host of the Maximized Minimalist podcast with over 5 million downloads, to explore why traditional decluttering methods often fail—and what actually works for those who struggle with emotional attachment to their stuff. What Listeners Will Discover In this conversation, Kathi and Katy dive deep into the psychology behind clutter, examining why some people can easily let things go while others find themselves paralyzed by a simple organizing decision. The Four Types of Clutter Katy introduces her framework of the four clutter types that keep most homes stuck: Superficial Clutter – The easy stuff with no emotional attachment (only 10-15% of most homes' clutter) Scarcity Clutter – Fear-based items kept "just in case" Sentimental Clutter – Items tied to memories and meaningful moments Identity Clutter – Things connected to who you used to be or aspire to become Understanding Your "Stuff Story" Listeners will learn about the three pillars that shape their relationship with belongings: historical influences from caregivers, personal experiences, and cultural messaging. This awareness creates the foundation for lasting change. How Clutter Affects Your Nervous System The conversation reveals how the average American home contains over 300,000 items—and how this visual chaos triggers stress responses, elevated cortisol, and feelings of overwhelm that have nothing to do with willpower or motivation. Key Takeaways The goal isn't a Pinterest-perfect home—it's a "good enough home" that serves your real life Knowing something is clutter doesn't automatically mean you can let it go Environment shapes behavior: changing your space changes your choices Meeting overwhelming thoughts with curiosity instead of judgment unlocks progress You can be sentimental AND have a simplified home This episode offers hope and practical strategies for anyone who has tried and failed at traditional decluttering methods. It's time to stop blaming yourself and start understanding the real reasons clutter has such a hold on your life.

Dell's CTO built a 4-category agent framework from real production deployments. Most enterprises are ignoring two of the categories that matter most.Full Show NotesEnterprise leaders are mapping AI agents to org charts — building digital employees, agentic teams, AI workers — and then wondering why the results fall short. Dell's Global CTO John Roese has been running agents in production long enough to know exactly why that framing fails, and what to do instead.In this episode, Roese shares a framework Dell developed from actual production deployments, not pilots. It identifies four categories of AI agents defined by two dimensions: how much autonomy you grant the agent, and how complex the underlying process is. Most enterprises are focused on one category. Two of the four are widely overlooked — and they may represent the fastest path to measurable ROI.This is a practical, grounded conversation about where agents are actually delivering value today, how to think about infrastructure cost in the context of agent economics, and why the sequence in which you deploy agents matters as much as which agents you build. If your organization is trying to move from AI experimentation to production, this episode is required listening.3.

Ask the Pastors S8 E13: “What are the ‘four types of love', and how is each relevant for us?” by West Hills Church
When breast implant illness support groups started telling each other to ask their plastic surgeon for an “en bloc capsulectomy,” they were borrowing a term from cancer surgery — and asking for something most surgeons knew was impossible. The plastic surgery community didn't correct them. They listened, and then they renamed it.Dr. Luke Swistun walks hostess Monique Ramsey through the Breast Surgery Collaborative Community Consensus and the four types of capsulectomy that came out of it: total intact capsulectomy (the surgery the en bloc community was actually asking for), total precise capsulectomy, partial capsulectomy, and the original cancer-surgery en bloc — a procedure he's performed exactly once in his career, on a woman with breast implant–associated lymphoma. He covers when leaving a sliver of capsule is the safer choice, why every capsule he removes goes to pathology, what imaging he wants done before surgery, and why he films almost every explant for the woman who just had it.Find out why Dr. Swistun openly credits the breast implant illness community for forcing the conversation, what recovery actually looks like across all four procedures, and the one thing he admits is overdue on his own website.LinksMeet San Diego plastic surgeon Dr. Luke SwistunLearn more about breast implant removalQuestions answered by this episode1.

When your niche isn't clear: Your messaging keeps shifting.Your confidence drops.Your marketing feels heavy.You try one strategy after another — but nothing gains real traction. It's not dramatic failure. It's subtle stagnation. And that quiet stagnation can last for years. Postponing the decision of choosing your niche, is postponing the results in your business. But also, it sucks all the energy out of you. Choosing a niche is not about shrinking your business. It's about sharpening your impact.

Ministry leaders are often exhausted — but most don't know what to do with their fatigue beyond pushing through it. In this conversation, Brett Payne, founder of Rhythms for Life Ministry, unpacks the four types of fatigue, why most leaders rarely pause to know the difference, and the untapped freedom that comes from actually processing our weariness instead of ignoring it. Packed with practical wisdom from decades of working with ministry leaders, Brett brings us new ways of thinking about “tiredness” and strategies to help leaders recover joy, clarity, and sustainable health in ministry.Followed by a personal conversation with ServingLeaders Chief Operating Officer, Joe Bruni. Joe gives us a taste of what a sabbatical is really like and provides an inside look at his own journey of sabbatical in 2025 with practical wisdom for leaders around how to prepare for and fully engage in this key ingredient to healthy leadership in their own lives.Rhythms for Life Ministry

Hector sits down with Dustin Reichmann, founder of Seven Figure Leap and host of the Seven Figure Leap podcast, to explore the evolution of podcasting as a business tool. Dustin shares his journey from being "the podcast guesting guy" to launching his own show, revealing why he initially resisted hosting and what finally changed his mind. The conversation dives deep into the practical side of podcasting for business owners—from leveraging relationships with high-profile guests like Ryan Deiss to developing four distinct episode types that serve different business goals. Dustin breaks down his coaching series format, explains why he now prioritizes solo content for repurposing, and discusses how he measures success beyond traditional download metrics. He also opens up about the importance of having professional production support, emphasizing that entrepreneurs should focus on strategy and relationships rather than editing and distribution.

The types of attachment were theorized by British psychologist John Bowlby in the 1950s. They are widely used to help us understand how we react to situations in our relationships, whether it be with romantic partners, friends or family members. Bowlby relied on research on the impact of early separations between infants and their mothers, and emphasized the importance of attachment relationships in the social and emotional development of children, as well as their long-term mental health. What exactly is an attachment style? And what about the other two types? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions !

In this Mussar Masterclass (Day 113) on the Gate of Silence in Orchos Tzaddikim, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores the profound power of speech through Rabbi Shimon ben Gamliel's declaration: "All my life I grew up among sages and found nothing better for oneself than silence." King Solomon adds that even a fool appears wise when silent, and one regrets speech far more than silence.The episode contrasts four (or five) categories of speech: forbidden (mockery, flattery, falsehood, slander—each excluding one from the World to Come by opposing Hashem's essence of oneness, truth, purpose, and sustenance); unnecessary/idle chatter (most worldly talk); and beloved/permissible speech (Torah study, praising good deeds, condemning evil to guide others, and essential livelihood matters). A clever servant's tongue dish (soft vs. hard) illustrates how words can uplift or devastate.Rabbi Wolbe warns against modern pitfalls like social media's anonymous cruelty and sensationalism, urging mindful, positive speech that reflects inner holiness. Silence protects from sin, fosters listening, and allows deeper spiritual focus—ultimately elevating the soul.Recorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on June 16, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on January 2, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired!

In this episode of Space for Life, Tommy and Joe dive deep into one of the most overlooked drivers of personal transformation: the environment you build around your life. Instead of focusing on tips, hacks, or quick fixes, they explore how habits, self-coaching, meaningful relationships, and spiritual spaciousness create the kind of “rich soil” where long-term growth actually happens.Drawing from the Parable of the Sower, Tommy unpacks four types of “soil environments” and shows how they mirror the spiritual, emotional, and practical conditions we create in our lives. The conversation moves through the role of spaciousness, the discomfort that often precedes growth, why self-reflection is essential, and the four kinds of people every person needs around them.If you want deeper relationships, meaningful progress, and a spiritual life that actually transforms you — this episode will help you create the conditions where real growth can finally take root.Key TakeawaysCreating the right environment is more important than any single growth tactic.The Parable of the Sower offers a framework for understanding how environment impacts growth.The three major components of a growth environment are habits, self-coaching, and people.Spaciousness is the foundational habit that enables reflection, listening, and deeper living.Weekly and quarterly rhythms create structure for long-term transformation.Growth requires a willingness to step outside your comfort zone.Self-coaching begins with listening — to patterns, emotions, circumstances, and God.Four kinds of people accelerate growth: mentors, mentees, soul friends, and prophets.A “prophet” (your Nathan) is someone with permission to speak hard truth into your life.ResourcesTommy's Book: Space to Breathe AgainSpace for Life Episode: “30 Minutes to Your Best Week”Space for Life Episode: “The Art of Journaling”Space for Life Episode: "What's the Big Deal About Margin?"Space for Life Episode: "What's a Spacious Life?"0:00 Intro1:46 Why Environment Matters4:26 Parable of the Sower9:42 Four Types of Soil12:49 Three Elements of Growth16:43 Habits of Spaciousness25:06 Weekly + Long-Term Rhythms32:57 Self Coaching + Reflection41:50 People of Growth45:22 4 Types of People You Need in Your Life55:48 Finding Your NathanLove the show?

It's anything that stands between you and the life you want to be living.-Peter WalshChapters0:26 Introduction to Brain Dumps1:58 Exploring the Brain Dump5:53 How to Perform a Brain Dump8:41 Four Types of Brain Dumps14:13 Signs You Need a Brain Dump16:03 Conclusion and EncouragementSummaryIn this episode of the Anxiety Coaches Podcast, I take you through the transformative practice of brain dumping as a powerful tool to alleviate stress and anxiety. Drawing from my experiences as a coach, I emphasize the importance of putting pen to paper to clear mental clutter and regain clarity. I begin by addressing a noticeable challenge many face: the overwhelming sense of mind clutter that can cloud our thoughts and contribute to anxiety. Using relatable analogies, I illustrate how our minds can feel like a messy closet, overflowing with worries and distractions.We dive into what a brain dump entails—essentially, it is an unfiltered release of thoughts onto paper, without the need for organization or judgment. This straightforward act of unloading not only eases the mental burden but also cultivates mental space for clarity and peace. Supported by research, I share insights that highlight how writing down thoughts can aid in memory retention and emotional processing. I reassess the common misconception that writing needs to be structured, reinforcing that messiness is not only acceptable but often beneficial in this context.I explore the different types of brain dumps I've found useful and encourage listeners to find those that resonate with their unique situations. For instance, I discuss the morning starter brain dump, suited for those who wake with anxious thoughts. It serves as a method to regain mental clarity before the day starts. Then there's the learning brain dump, tailored for individuals who find themselves overwhelmed by new information, making it an effective aid for learning processes.#anxietyrelief, #braindump, #journaling, #mentalhealthmatters, #stressmanagement, #overthinking, #anxietycoach, #ginaryan, #anxietycoachespodcast, #mindfulness, #mentalclarity, #selfcare, #morningpages, #writingtherapy, #calmdown, #nervoussystemregulation, #mentalhealthawareness, #stopworrying, #productivityhacks, #gratitude, #dailyinspiration, #wellnessjourney, #healing, #stressrelief, #mentalwellness, #burnoutrecovery, #mindsetshift, #organizationtips, #clearyourmind, #emotionalwellbeing, #selfhealers, #anxietysupport, #mentalhealthtips, #writingcommunity, #journalingideas, #morningroutine, #positivevibes, #innerpeace, #dailymotivation, #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
