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

Discover how the GB Calf Strategy is transforming British farming by creating purposeful connections between dairy and beef sectors. Join AHDB experts Sarah Tomlinson, Laura Awdry, and Harriet Bunning as they reveal the remarkable progress already made and outline an ambitious five-year vision built on three foundational pillars: Right Calf, Right Start, and Right Route.The podcast takes you on a journey from the strategy's origins in 2006 following the ban on live calf exports to today's world-leading adoption of sexed semen (88% in Holstein breeds) that's dramatically reduced unwanted dairy bull calves. You'll learn how the UK's unique calving patterns create both challenges and opportunities compared to other dairy-producing nations.Delve into fascinating discussions about genetic selection that balances calving ease with beef quality, challenging the assumption that small-stature dairy cows can't produce good beef calves. The experts share evidence-based approaches to professionalizing calf rearing while addressing TB-related movement restrictions that have historically complicated the dairy-beef supply chain.At its heart, this strategy represents a mindset shift—recognizing that dairy farmers are beef farmers too, with approximately 37% of UK prime beef originating from dairy herds. Rather than imposing burdens, the GB Calf Strategy creates frameworks that reward good decisions throughout the supply chain, benefiting animal welfare, environmental sustainability, and farm profitability.Whether you're a dairy farmer, beef producer, or somewhere in the supply chain, this episode offers practical insights into creating value through better breeding decisions, optimal calf care, and improved data sharing. Take action today by putting sire information on passports and join the movement toward a more integrated, sustainable British farming future.Send us a textFor more information about our podcast visit www.chewinthecud.com/podcast or follow us on Instagram @chewinthecudpodcast.

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).

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.

What if the path you're on is slowly disconnecting you from your future self and your body is the first to notice? Hint: that happened to me…In this episode I'm sharing the one question that shifted how I viewed my life, career, and health. Back in 2021, I was grinding hard toward medical school while silently dealing with intense stress causing skin flare ups and gut discomfort. On paper, everything looked aligned. In my body, it couldn't be further from the truth. I started to realize that I wasn't living in alignment with my purpose but was too scared to admit it. Then a single question cracked me open…In this episode we dive into:- The physical and emotional signs that pointed me toward a much-needed career change- How honesty became the catalyst for my next wave of personal growth- The moment I realized I was chasing safety, not self-discovery- Why your purpose is more of an energy than a destination- How to spot the difference between aligned ambition and fear-based productivity- What it really means to live with a long-term life vision that excites you- Why holistic practices helped me trust myself through the process- I hope this can serve as a reminder that self reflection is a key step towards clarity. The more you learn about your blocks, the more ways you can grant yourself spaciousness.===The Flourish with Purpose Vault is your space to come home to your purpose and finally move forward with clarity and confidence.
