By leveraging his connections, Phil creates high-visibility opportunities for these artists at major festivals and sporting events, helping them navigate the competitive music landscape.  15:15 Inspiring Hope Through Youthful Energy  Phil describes Follow the Music as more than just artist development; it's about connecting the Bay Area to support music education and celebrating the vibrant spirit of young artists. He believes their courage and vulnerability offer hope and inspiration in a divided world, marking his 'third act' dedicated to empowering the next generation.  23:17 Oakland Rising at the Kennedy Center  Phil shares the powerful story of Oakland Rising's performance at the Kennedy Center, where the group faced a dilemma due to prior boycotts.

She left a corporate life in Germany in 2022, sold her belongings for Bitcoin, moved to Bali, and began rebuilding local Bitcoin adoption through practical education and community infrastructure. In this episode, we look at the realities in Indonesia: bank accounts closed after short inactivity, constant transaction monitoring, restrictions on moving money across islands, and limited financial agency for women.

“You can't implement skills-based hiring by flipping a switch. It's about changing mindsets, systems, and the language your organization uses to describe talent.”-Ashley WallvoordIn this episode of Psych Tech @ Work, me and my AI co-host, Mayda Tokens, welcome fellow I/O psychologist (and LSU Tiger!) Ashley Walvoord, Senior Vice President of Talent at Verizon.We are joined by my AI co-host Mayda Tokens who continues to impress at times and but showing a tendency to be pretty boring at other times and always telling really bad jokes (I think the API to Chat-GPT 5o gets a very different sense of humor than the consumer version).I reached out to Ashley after seeing her SIOP presentation about Verizon's skills based hiring (and organizational transformation) program. Her and her fellow presenters-Max McDaniel (Verizon)Christina-Norris Watts (J & J)Ruth Imose (J & J)Jason Frizel (Walmart)provided amazing insights into their company's' amazing and inspiring skills based hiring programs.The hype around skills based hiring these days makes it seem easy. But talk is cheap- and doing skills based hiring right takes a total ALL IN approach. - one that is rooted in the commitment to become a true skills based organization.Ashley has lived this life and her experience provides an awesome preview of how one of the world's largest organizations is reimagining hiring and development through skills and AI. We are all lucky to have her on the show!Verizon's transformation provides a rare look at how enterprise-scale companies operationalize skills-based hiring while navigating the practical realities of change management, technology integration, and workforce readiness.SummaryThis conversation bridges strategy and execution, offering a clear-eyed view of how a Fortune 50 company is aligning people, process, and technology around skills. Ashley shares the lessons learned from Verizon's commitment to a multi-year, organization wide transformation. A journey with many whistlestops along the way— from defining skills frameworks to embedding them in hiring and internal mobility.Key Themes1. Building Skills Infrastructure at ScaleAshley explains how skills-based hiring starts long before implementation — requiring shared language, governance, and validation across the enterprise. Verizon's approach focuses on sustainability and integration rather than one-off pilots.2. Human Oversight in an AI-Driven SystemAI plays a growing role in matching and mobility, but Ashley underscores that human judgment remains central. The goal isn't automation for its own sake, but augmentation — using technology to help people make better, more equitable decisions.3. Culture Change Through Data TransparencyVerizon's success depends on building trust with employees and leaders by showing the “why” behind skills data and AI insights. Visibility into how skills are used for development and promotion helps drive adoption.4. Enterprise Challenges and Lessons Learned Ashley shares the realities of scaling change: aligning functions, managing vendor relationships, and ensuring consistency across geographies. Her advice is practical — start small, demonstrate impact, and scale what works.5. Future Vision for Skills and AI in Talent Ashley envisions a future where skills become the connective tissue between learning, mobility, and performance — and where AI acts as a trusted partner in enabling opportunity at every level.Takeaways* Enterprise-scale transformation requires governance, not just technology.* AI can accelerate fairness and insight, but must remain transparent and human-centered.* Data visibility is the key to cultural adoption — employees must see personal benefit.* Scaling skills frameworks demands partnership between HR, technology, and business leadership.The future of work will depend on how we align AI, human judgment, and purpose at scale. And a commitment to verifying and managing skills at scale. This is a public episode.

We are delighted to welcome the inspiring Sepideh Eivazi as our guest today. Sepideh is on a mission to move everyone she encounters, leaving them changed and feeling seen. She is a 2025 inductee of the Smart Meetings Hall of Fame, a Smart Speaker, a 40 Under 40 honoree, and a 2025 Meetings Today Trendsetter. Her powerful TED Talk, Breath as an Act of Rebellion, has inspired audiences around the world.  She joins us today to share her journey and insights. This information is for educational purposes only and is not medical advice. Consult a qualified healthcare provider before using any plant medicine Sepideh's Journey Sepideh Eivazi grew up in Iran, navigating a life constrained by societal and political limitations. At the age of 20, she moved to the United States with her younger sister in search of freedom and opportunity. Starting from scratch, she worked in hospitality in Las Vegas, learning about the event industry from the ground up, embracing mentorship, and observing inspiring and cautionary examples of leadership. Eventually, she relocated to Los Angeles, where she joined Elevated Meeting Solutions and later launched her own wellness platform, Dawn of the Earth, which integrates tea culture, somatic breathwork, nervous system regulation, and psychedelic integration practices. Her work focuses on conscious leadership, healing trauma, and empowering others, bridging both Eastern and Western wellness traditions. Freedom and Feminism Sepideh shares the challenges Iranian women face under restrictive societal norms, particularly the compulsory wearing of a veil. She emphasizes the importance of personal choice, freedom, and human qualities over appearance or imposed rules.  Singing as Healing and Expression Reclaiming her voice through singing became an emotional and symbolic act of empowerment, connecting Sepideh to her heritage and generations of suppressed women in Iran. She views singing as both a personal healing practice and a form of standing for those who cannot freely express themselves. Mentorship and Community Sepideh credits several mentors and supportive figures for her growth. She emphasizes the importance of showing up for others, paying support forward, and nurturing a sense of community. Leading Beyond Burnout Burnout is a result of prolonged stress, fight, flight, freeze responses, and neglecting emotional and physical health. Sepideh utilizes somatic breathwork to help leaders and employees regulate their nervous systems, process suppressed emotions, and create safe spaces for vulnerability and healing. She explains that burnout is preventable when organizations and individuals prioritize conscious, holistic self-care. Plant Medicine and Integration Sepideh views plant medicine as a tool for mental health and emotional integration, highlighting it as a catalyst for self-awareness rather than a recreational high. She works with clients to integrate insights from plant medicine into daily life, cultivating emotional intelligence, forgiveness, and presence. Her approach combines body awareness, somatic practices, and intentional reflections. Performance, Presence, and Ritual In high-performance industries, constant productivity and measurement can undermine confidence and well-being. Sepideh advocates rituals and presence-based practices, such as mindful breathing, sensory activation, and slowing down during daily activities, to reconnect with oneself and cultivate sustainable performance without anxiety or self-judgment. Future Vision and Celebration Sepideh measures success through progress and the ability to give back to humanity. She values learning, growth, and curiosity over rigid goals or timelines, viewing each step forward as a meaningful achievement for herself and others.

Our teacher today is Jan Mohr, CEO of Chapters Group, a publicly traded serial acquisition holding company with ambitions of becoming one of Europe's technology champions. Chapters' origins date back to a small software startup founded near Frankfurt in 1998. Twenty years later, the core business was sold to a strategic buyer, consolidating the market with the proceeds of the sale in 2018. With Jan's influence, the company embarked on a new chapter, pivoting to build the preferred home for mission-critical businesses across the old continent. Over the last five years, they have been on an absolute tear, having founded four distinct acquisition platforms that collectively acquired around 60 operating companies, demonstrated the ability to build a prolific M&A machine, while also improving the operations of the companies they acquire. Virtually every company in the world today is, on some level, thinking about AI in terms of threats, opportunities, and implications for their business. Perhaps nowhere is that discourse more animated right now than in the software industry. And as you'll hear from Jan, AI's potential to be a transformative force driving not only efficiencies, but also TAM expansion and most importantly, tangible customer value, is already evident throughout their business. We hope you enjoy class today with our good friend and Chapter CEO, Jan Mohr.

This episode is a first for the show - a repeat of a previously posted interview on The New Quantum Era podcast! I think you'll agree the reason for the repeat is a great one - this episode, recorded at the APS Global Summit in March, features a conversation John Martinis, co-founder and CTO of QoLab and newly minted Nobel Laureate! Last week the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences made an announcement that John would share the 2025 Nobel Prize for Physics with John Clarke and Michel Devoret “for the discovery of macroscopic quantum mechanical tunnelling and energy quantisation in an electric circuit.” It should come as no surprise that John and I talked about macroscopic quantum mechanical tunnelling and energy quantization in electrical circuits, since those are precisely the attributes that make a superconducting qubit work for computation.  The work John is doing at Qolab, a superconducting qubit company seeking to build a million qubit device, is really impressive, as befits a Nobel Laureate and a pioneer in the field. In our conversation we explore the strategic shifts, collaborative efforts, and technological innovations that are pushing the boundaries of quantum computing closer to building scalable, million-qubit systems. Key HighlightsEmerging from Stealth Mode & Million-Qubit System Paper:Discussion on QoLab's transition from stealth mode and their comprehensive paper on building scalable million-qubit systems.Focus on a systematic approach covering the entire stack.Collaboration with Semiconductor Companies:Unique business model emphasizing collaboration with semiconductor companies to leverage external expertise.Comparison with bigger players like Google, who can fund the entire stack internally.Innovative Technological Approaches:Integration of wafer-scale technology and advanced semiconductor manufacturing processes.Emphasis on adjustable qubits and adjustable couplers for optimizing control and scalability.Scaling Challenges and Solutions:Strategies for achieving scale, including using large dilution refrigerators and exploring optical communication for modular design.Plans to address error correction and wiring challenges using brute force scaling and advanced materials.Future Vision and Speeding Up Development:QoLab's goal to significantly accelerate the timeline toward achieving a million-qubit system.Insight into collaborations with HP Enterprises, NVIDIA, Quantum Machines, and others to combine expertise in hardware and software.Research Papers Mentioned in this Episode:Position paper on building scalable million-qubit systems 

In this episode of This Week in NoCode + AI, JJ sits down with Allen Yang, CEO and co-founder of Liminary — an AI-first startup redefining how we collect, organize, and recall knowledge.Before founding Liminary, Allen led product at Google Docs, Better Mortgage, and Bubble — giving him a rare perspective on how productivity tools have evolved (and where they've fallen short). Together, we unpack how GenAI is reshaping the way we work, why knowledge management remains unsolved, and how Liminary's “automatic recall” feature could change everything for researchers, founders, and teams drowning in data.We also dive into what it takes to build an AI-powered startup today — from product-market fit and go-to-market strategy to standing out in an increasingly crowded space.

In this AI Quick Take episode, I take a look at one of the most fascinating yet misunderstood applications of AI in healthcare: digital twins. While this concept has been around in engineering and technology circles, I wanted to explore what it really means for us as healthcare marketers and why it could be a game-changer for our industry.A digital twin is essentially a virtual model of a real-world process, system, or even a person. Think of it as a digital replica that can simulate how real things behave. In healthcare, we're already seeing exciting applications, such as simulated patient flow through emergency departments, personalized treatment modeling for individual patients, and even simulations of medical devices like pacemakers or MRI machines. What makes these particularly powerful for marketers is that, unlike static personas, digital twins continuously ingest real-world data and evolve over time. I outlined three key marketing use cases that could transform how we work. Creating digital twins of our buyers - essentially persona modeling on steroids. Simulating the value of products before customers ever buy.Helping prospects experience outcomes before deployment.The bottom line is that digital twins could help us solve healthcare's notorious long sales cycles by moving from "trust us, our solution works" to "here's exactly how it'll work in your specific environment." I believe the vendors who master this capability over the next few years will have a significant competitive advantage, being able to prove value in weeks rather than months through immediate outcome simulation.Key Topics Covered“Introduction to Digital Twins (00:00:00)”“Healthcare Applications (00:02:00)”“Marketing Advantages (00:04:00)”“Buyer Digital Twins (00:05:00)”“Product Marketing Applications (00:07:00)”“Sales Enablement (00:08:00)”“Getting Started - Customer Data (00:10:00)”“Content Development Strategy (00:11:00)”“Demo Differentiation (00:11:00)”“Future Vision (00:13:00)”“Closing Advice (00:14:00)”If you are interested in discussing this or any other topic, let's have a chat.  Reach out to me directly to schedule a no-obligation discussion.

In this episode, we dive into the extraordinary journey of an ordinary man who was thrust into the legal system and, through relentless struggle, uncovered the hidden machinery driving family courts, governments, and corporations. What began as a personal battle over divorce and child support revealed a multi-trillion-dollar industry built on negotiable instruments, exposing how the system profits off human lives. Through years of trial, error, and perseverance, Cal Washington discovered the ancient roots of Lex Mercatoria—the Law Merchant—and how commerce, not justice, underpins the courts we think serve us. From facing jail time to holding judges accountable, to creating notices of liability that caused officials and apparently even a royal to step down, his story is one of grit, awakening, and empowerment. This is an eye-opening conversation that challenges everything you thought you knew about law, power, and freedom.Time Stamps(00:00) Episode Teaser(00:27) Opening Conversation(04:29) Introducing Cal Washington(06:51) Cal Washington's Legal Journey(08:39) The Divorce Industry Exposed(14:36) Understanding the Legal System(17:18) The Power of Commerce in Law(21:39) Cal's Personal Legal Battles(27:15) The Role of Law Merchant(35:10) Courtroom Experiences and Strategies(44:24) The Impact of Legal Knowledge(48:14) Unexpected Arrest and Meeting a Lawyer(49:24) Legal Maneuvers and Promissory Note(51:30) Escalation and Government Response(55:11) Empower Movement and Smart Meters(58:55) Notices of Liability and Public Impact(01:03:21) Financial System and Wealth Transfer(01:10:47) Personal Compliance and Legal Strategies(01:19:54) Biblical Contracts and Legal Principles(01:23:39) Future Vision and System Reset(01:28:53) Practical Applications and Final ThoughtsGuest Linkshttps://www.inpowermovement.org/hereforthetruth ($50 discount available)Connect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthSubscribe to Here for the Truth FridaysTake the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramAccess all our links

Welcome to the Future Generations Podcast with Guest Alyssa Campbell, author of "Tiny Humans, Big Emotions" (New York Times Bestseller) and her newest book "Big Kids, Bigger Feelings" out this September. In this episode, Dr. Stanton Hom talks with Alyssa Campbell, diving deep into the complex world of children's emotional intelligence and nervous system development. Targeting parents of children aged 5-12, educators, and child development professionals, the conversation explores the nine sensory systems, how children process stimuli, and provides practical strategies for supporting emotional growth. Campbell breaks down the unique ways children experience and regulate their emotions, offering insights that can help parents move from reactive parenting to intentional, compassionate guidance.   Highlights: "All behaviors are communication of a need."   "What we're sensitive to drains our nervous system. What we're seeking recharges it."   "We're all unique humans, and the way our nervous system works is unique."   "It's not a question of whether your body is wise. The question is, what is your body trying to say?"   Timestamps: 03:45 - Introduction 08:01 - Exploring the Nine Sensory Systems 13:07 - Understanding Sensitivity vs. Seeking in Nervous System 25:38 - Collaborative Emotion Processing Method Explained 30:34 - Practical Strategies for Nervous System Regulation 34:38 - Deep Dive into Emotion Processing Steps 41:16 - COVID-19's Impact on Children's Emotional Development 44:27 - The Power of Compassion in Parenting 49:33 - Alyssa Campbell's Mission and Future Vision 53:07 - How to Connect and Learn More   Resources:   Remember to Rate, Review, and Subscribe on iTunes and Follow us on Spotify!   Learn more about Dr. Stanton Hom on:   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drstantonhom  Website: https://futuregenerationssd.com/    Podcast Website: https://thefuturegen.com Twitter: https://twitter.com/drstantonhom  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stanhomdc  Stay Connected with the Future Generations Podcast:   Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/futuregenpodcast  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/futuregenpodcast/    Links:    https://www.thehivemethod.co/ https://www.instagram.com/thehivemethod.co   About Alyssa Campbell: Alyssa Campbell M.Ed., is an emotional intelligence researcher, Founder and the CEO of Seed & Sew, host of the Voices of Your Village podcast and author of Big Kids, Bigger Feelings: Navigating Defiance, Meltdowns, Anxiety to Raise Confident, Connected Kids (HarperCollins Harvest, 9/16/25).

From running a rogue lemonade stand in third grade (complete with hired second-graders) to leading the charge in agentic AI, Anik Singal's entrepreneurial journey is as unconventional as it is inspiring. In this episode of BizNinja Entrepreneur Radio, host Tyler Jorgenson dives into Anik's fascinating backstory—from dropping a full-ride pre-med scholarship, stumbling through MLMs, and convincing his skeptical father that a $30,000 ClickBank check wasn't a scam, to building multimillion-dollar businesses like Sendlane, WebinarCon, and now Ugentic AI.Anik opens up about the highs and lows of his career, including the near-collapse that left him $1.7 million in debt, the life-threatening stress of Crohn's disease, and the brutal lessons he learned while trying (and failing) to build a tech company without the right foundation. He candidly shares how the “golden touch” complex nearly destroyed him—and how humility, mentors, and relentless learning pulled him back.Now, with Ugentic AI, Anik is on a mission to bring cutting-edge, autonomous AI workflows to small businesses—the 75% of entrepreneurs still untouched by AI technology. He reveals how Ugentic AI can give small businesses a competitive edge, streamline workflows, and even reclaim the one thing every entrepreneur craves: freedom. Along the way, he sprinkles in life lessons, powerful takeaways, and a heartfelt reminder that entrepreneurship is about creating the life you want—not just the business you build.TakeawaysThe Entrepreneurial Signs Start Early: Even childhood hustles can reveal entrepreneurial instincts—sometimes in hilariously “non-kosher” ways.Big Wins Come with Big Lessons: Success in one arena doesn't guarantee success in another. You need humility, the right partners, and constant learning.Debt & Failure Aren't the End: Hitting rock bottom financially or health-wise can become the catalyst for growth and reinvention.Ugentic AI is Here Now: Autonomous AI workflows aren't science fiction—they're already reshaping business, and small businesses need to catch up fast.True Success means Freedom: For Anik, the ultimate milestone isn't another exit—it's carving out more time with his family while running world-changing companies.Chapters00:00 Welcome and Guest Introduction01:09 Childhood Hustles and Lemonade Stand02:55 The Doctor Dream Detour03:54 Discovering True Entrepreneurship Passion06:10 First Big Affiliate Marketing Win09:43 Transition to Becoming Product Owner14:14 Obsession with Info Publishing Model15:18 From Info Products into SaaS18:02 The Golden Touch Complex20:20 Dark Times and Heavy Debt23:29 Hard Lessons Every Entrepreneur Learns26:41 Future Vision with Eugentic AI28:45 What Ugentic AI Really Is30:30 Personal Bucket List Freedom Goal31:26 How to Connect with Anik31:51 Tyler's Closing Words of Action

My guest today is Mark Bertolini. Mark is the former CEO of Aetna and the current CEO of Oscar Health. He shares one of the most extraordinary leadership stories I've encountered—surviving a catastrophic skiing accident that left him in chronic pain for 18 years while simultaneously leading one of healthcare's most successful corporate turnarounds. His personal experience navigating his son's life-threatening cancer battle and his own medical challenges fundamentally changed his approach to healthcare, leading to innovations in employee welfare that Wall Street initially questioned but ultimately celebrated. During his tenure at Aetna, Mark generated 652% total shareholder return by implementing revolutionary employee policies and is now applying these lessons at Oscar Health to disrupt the $4 trillion healthcare industry with a technology-first approach. We discuss the power of servant leadership, employer-sponsored insurance vs individual choice-based plans, and the horizons of healthcare. Please enjoy this incredible conversation with Mark Bertolini.
