 If there was an award for my most frequent guest, it would be Rabbi Ron Goldberg! He is my “Frequent Flyer!”  Catch my other podcasts on this site or on iTunes. Here's a little background:Rabbi Ron was raised Jewish. While in High School, Ron did two things Jewish people are not supposed to do. First, he began sneaking out to church. Second, he read the "forbidden" Jewish New Testament. As a result, Ron met the Jewish Jesus. In 1985 he spent several months in deprogramming where 2 counselors tried to get Ron to reject Yeshua as Messiah. This was unsuccessful and he has spent his life helping people meet the Jewish Jesus.   Some of Rabbi Ron's Experience:​Jews For Jesus Summer Campaign 1990Mentored & ordained by Jonathan Bernis.‘Hear O Israel' Outreach in Russia & IndiaLed a Messianic Congregation for 16 yearsCo-host of Messianic radio show for 5 yearsTaught in churches/colleges since 1986Trains people in sharing the Good News with Jewish PeopleIn this broadcast Rabbi Ron shared an update of what's happening with his family.

In the deregulated skies of the 1980s, airlines needed new ways to make customers feel special. Enter the first major frequent flyer program, American Airlines' AAdvantage, on 1st May, 1981. Bob Crandall built a powerful data system to track and process his customers' miles, giving American a huge head start whilst rivals scrambled to copy his idea. Suddenly, airline loyalty points weren't just for free flights — they were currency. Hotels, car rentals, and restaurant reservations got looped in, creating the foundation for today's sprawling loyalty ecosystems. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly discover how much airlines lose on each ticket they give away; uncover the small regional airline that actually beat American to the frequent flyer market; and reveal how one man with a lifetime pass has flown 25 million miles…  Further Reading: • ‘FARE GAMES AND THE FREQUENT FLIER' (The New York Times, 1982): https://www.nytimes.com/1982/10/17/travel/fare-games-and-the-frequent-flier.html • ‘AAdvantage Celebrates 40 Years of Loyalty Innovation' (American Airlines Newsroom, 2021): https://news.aa.com/news/news-details/2021/AAdvantage-Celebrates-40-Years-of-Loyalty-Innovation-AADV-04/default.aspx • ‘Bob Crandall and Rick Elieson chats about the history of AAdvantage and how loyalty is evolving' (Loyalty Leaders Podcast, 2021): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RZe4HCQVsw #Business #Advertising #80s #US Love the show?

Millions of dollars are being wasted in healthcare every year—not because of a lack of resources, but because people aren't accessing the help that already exists. AI is starting to change that. By streamlining access to underused benefit programs, AI can help patients avoid unnecessary ER visits, reduce hospital strain, and cut costs across the healthcare system. Dr. Alister Martin shares how his work at Link Health is using AI to bridge the gap between patients and public resources, with real-world results backed by recent clinical trials. It's a powerful example of how smart technology can drive both financial and human impact in medicine.

Part One.If change were a sport, Colin Savage would have a trophy room. He's worked in 70+ countries, lived in 7, and reinvented himself more times than most of us change our passwords.In this episode, Colin calls out lifelong learning as passé and introduces his take: skill stacking. Plus, we get into why having a personal AI strategy might be just as important as having a LinkedIn profile. Buckle up—Colin's not slowing down, and neither should you.Key Highlights of Our Interview:Chasing Novelty vs. Finding Purpose“It's easy to leap into new opportunities just because they look exciting. But what's the endgame? Without a deeper reason or plan, chasing novelty can leave you with unfinished experiences and a string of ‘almost-there' moments. Purpose turns adventures into meaningful chapters.”Addicted to Change: Thrill or Trap?“Addiction to novelty isn't inherently bad—it pushes boundaries and opens up opportunities. But unbridled chasing without reflection or completion risks shallow experiences. The key? Balancing the thrill of change with the discipline to extract value from every leap.”Change as a Tool, Not a Fix“Change for the sake of novelty often leads to dissatisfaction. Instead, approach change as a tool for growth, not a quick fix. Thoughtfully evaluate your motives, assess your readiness, and embrace change as a means to align with your purpose—not as an escape from discomfort.”Japan: A Surprising Example of Measured Change“Even in traditionally conservative cultures, like Japan's life insurance industry, meaningful change can thrive. Success here came not from disruption but from careful planning, patience, and conversations that built consensus. Change, when handled thoughtfully, can flourish even in the most traditional environments.”_________________________Connect with us:Host: Vince Chan | Guest: Colin Savage  --Chief Change Officer--Change Ambitiously.

Plus, we get into why having a personal AI strategy might be just as important as having a LinkedIn profile. Buckle up—Colin's not slowing down, and neither should you.Key Highlights of Our Interview:Skill Stacking: Building the Professional Toolkit“Skill stacking, by contrast, is about curating abilities that complement one another professionally. It's not about learning everything, but about combining practical skills—like emotional intelligence and technical expertise—to tackle complex challenges with a well-rounded approach.”AI as a Symphony, Not a Solo“The real power of AI lies in its harmony with other tools and disciplines. No single tool can address every need, but by leveraging the strengths of multiple technologies in concert, professionals can tackle challenges faster, smarter, and more effectively.”Cheating AI? The Consequences Are Real“From students to professionals, relying on AI without human effort leads to steep penalties. A student might fail, a professional might face fraud charges. The higher the stakes, the more critical it is to leverage—not outsource—human intelligence.”From Problem-Solving to Value Creation“AI isn't just a tool for fixing problems—it's a way to grow and extend what's already working. By pairing the strengths of people and machines, businesses can unlock untapped potential and deliver results that weren't possible before._________________________Connect with us:Host: Vince Chan | Guest: Colin Savage  --Chief Change Officer--Change Ambitiously.

Fewer words, deeper thought, and a collective approach to charting the path forward. Because real insight comes when you listen more than you speak.”Why Collective Decisions Matter“Making life-altering changes isn't a solo act. Consulting with those affected—be it family, colleagues, or friends—adds invaluable perspectives. Ignoring this step risks blind spots and unanticipated challenges that could have been addressed earlier.”Lifelong Learning: The Good, the Bad, and the Outdated“While lifelong learning emphasizes constant self-improvement, it often lacks focus. Simply chasing degrees, certifications, or skills without purpose can lead to a disjointed portfolio of knowledge. The real magic happens when learning is intentional and builds toward expertise.”Skill Stacking as a Career Superpower“Focused learning that combines seemingly unrelated skills can redefine your career trajectory. It's not just about learning for the sake of it—it's about intentionally connecting knowledge areas to create a broader, more adaptable toolkit for the future.”_________________________Connect with us:Host: Vince Chan | Guest: Colin Savage  --Chief Change Officer--Change Ambitiously.
