In this episode of SCW for Pharma, Evren Ozkaya welcomes Adrian Van den Hoven, Director General of Medicines for Europe, the leading voice for generic and biosimilar manufacturers across the continent.The conversation begins by underscoring the essential role generics and biosimilars play in Europe's healthcare system — making up around 90% of prescriptions but only 20% of total costs. Adrian explains how these medicines significantly expand access while easing the burden on patients and insurers. However, despite their public health value, low profit margins have led to a fragile and highly consolidated market — one responsible for two-thirds of medicine shortages across Europe, a trend also seen in the U.S.Evren and Adrian explore how geopolitical tensions, supply chain disruptions, and stringent environmental regulations are putting additional pressure on the sector. While EU authorities are assessing ways to strengthen local supply, current pricing models offer little incentive for generic manufacturers to invest in capacity or modernization. Today, 70% of manufacturing investment goes toward maintaining compliance, leaving only 30% for productivity, agility, or innovation — eroding Europe's competitiveness against countries like China and India.Digital transformation surfaces as a crucial lever — not just to improve efficiency but also to combat labor shortages and build greater resilience. Yet Adrian notes that digital maturity in EU pharma remains low, with many factories still running on paper and Excel. Still, the opportunity is enormous. As Evren highlights, PwC estimates that AI could potentially double EBITDA for pharma, especially through manufacturing and supply chain use cases. But he also cautions that most companies aren't ready to harness AI due to weak data infrastructure. Without high-quality, real-time operational data, AI delivers poor results — “garbage in, garbage out.”The episode concludes with a look ahead. Adrian stresses that Europe has the skilled workforce to lead in digital transformation, but regulatory support and targeted funding are essential. Strategic partnerships — like the one between SCW.AI and Medicines for Europe — can help bridge the gap. Evren and Adrian close by previewing their upcoming meeting in Brussels with the European Commission, generic pharma manufacturers, and technology providers — a collaborative push to showcase ROI, align stakeholders, and accelerate digital transformation across the industry.

In this episode, Anna Rose and Guillermo Angeris catch up with Muthu Venkitasubramaniam, Professor of Computer Science at Georgetown University and cofounder of Ligero. They discuss how Ligero's small memory footprint makes it a good choice for client-side proving, as well as the importance of programmable compliance in blockchain. The conversation explores the differences between ‘MPC in the head' and error-correcting code perspectives, and how well-established primitives influence the design of modern ZK systems. They also debate the challenge of adding ‘ZK' privacy back into systems without it, why proving EVM traces may be absurd, and what kinds of guarantees might exist around the results of vibe coding.

The Wall Street Journal drops a front page story alleging Donald Trump wrote Jeffrey Epstein a 50th birthday card decades ago and drew a naked woman on it, a "bombshell" so preposterous, only MSNBC is seriously pushing it. Trump says he will sue the WSJ and Rupert Murdoch for printing the story despite his adamant denials that he wrote the "letter." Will the tall tale do the opposite the Deep State hopes and bring MAGA back to full-circle support for Trump? Generic polling doesn't look good for democrats.
The following article of the Health industry is: “Generic to Strategic: Redefining Patient Loyalty in Healthcare” by Alex Ruiz Bernal, Health Consultant, Independent Contributor.
If you want your woman to give you head more often—and actually enjoy doing it—it comes down to one thing: how you speak to her during and after. This episode is about leadership, not pressure.✅ Generic compliments don't cut it “Damn, that feels good” is surface-level. “Your lips look so sexy around my cock” is precise, personal, and unforgettable. That's the difference.✅ Post-sex remarks build the foundation for next time What you say after she goes down on you either builds a connection or breaks it. Stop saying “that was great” and walking off. Start communicating like a man who knows how to lead.✅ She does more of what she feels good at When you connect praise to her specific performance, her brain ties the act to success and approval. That's how you make “blowjob = sexy” stick.
In this episode, I sit down with Miriam.Before BBM, she had spent years doing gym classes and following generic fitness programs. She wasn't out of shape, but she wasn't getting the results she wanted either. It wasn't until she committed to structured strength training with BBM that things finally started to shift.Miriam opens up about what it took to rebuild herself- physically and mentally- after the hardest year of her life. From navigating unexpected health challenges to staying grounded during a full eight-week break from workouts, she shares what helped her stay consistent, centered, and in momentum.We talk about:• Why she stopped chasing intensity and started training with intention• The real reason she didn't fall off- even with two months away from lifting• How strength training helped her rebuild self-trust and peace of mind• Why live Zoom classes give her more energy than the gym ever did• Her mindset on turning 39 and why she's only getting strongerIf you've ever felt like life threw you off course or you're in a season where showing up feels harder than usual- this conversation will remind you what's possible when you stay anchored in structure, community, and your own inner commitment.Want to talk about how I can support you?

Okay, real talk. Those generic "must-have" lists all over Pinterest and home-building blogs set you up to build a house that might have some cool features, but most likely won't even work for YOUR family's lifestyle.In this episode, I'm spilling the truth about why there are NO universal must-haves when building a custom home, and I'm sharing the four questions that'll help you figure out what YOUR family actually needs (spoiler: it's probably way different than what those lists tell you).We'll cover:Why that mudroom everyone's obsessing over might be completely pointless for your lifestyleReal stories from families who ignored the "rules" and built homes that actually work for themHow to stop second-guessing yourself and create a must-have list based on your real life, not Pinterest dreamsThe difference between features that look amazing and ones that actually make your daily routine betterBottom line ... this is YOUR custom home. YOU get to decide what goes in it based on what makes YOUR life easier and happier ... not what some blog says you "must" have.

Understanding how people feel appreciated varies significantly between individuals, with five distinct appreciation languages determining what makes team members feel truly valued.• Words of affirmation can be delivered through praise for accomplishments, character affirmations, or personality trait recognition• Recognition delivery matters significantly – some prefer public praise while others find it mortifying• Understanding if someone prefers one-on-one, small group, or large group recognition is crucial• Written appreciation allows some people to save and reference positive feedback later• Creating a "Working With Me" guide helps teams understand individual preferences and communication styles• Generic praise becomes meaningless when overused or applied too broadly• Workplace appreciation must be specific and personalized to remain effective• The Discord has a poll about appreciation languages – join and share your preferencesJoin our Discord to participate in the appreciation languages poll and continue the conversation!

What happens when artificial intelligence collides with nonprofit hiring? Katie Warnock, CEO and Founder of Staffing Boutique, brings over two decades of recruitment wisdom to unpack the evolving world of nonprofit staffing—where AI, automation, and applicant tracking systems are rapidly reshaping the game.From resume reviews to video interviews scored by machines, Katie walks us through what's real, what's useful, and what still absolutely needs a human touch. She describes AI as a powerful tool—but not a one-size-fits-all solution.She shares how AI can now instantly generate candidate pipelines, automate scheduling, and send emails with the ease of a few clicks. But for seasoned recruiters like Katie, there's hesitation: trust and nuance still matter. And for organizations hiring in the nonprofit space, personality and mission alignment can't be faked—no matter how good your chatbot is.This episode also explores the do's and don'ts of keyword optimization, especially for nonprofit resumes. Katie gets specific about how grant writers, development staff, and even tech candidates should tailor their resumes for today's smart hiring systems. Generic titles like “fundraiser” or “event planner”? Not enough. Think: gala, silent auction, CRM platform, institutional giving.But perhaps most eye-opening is Katie's reflection on the new loop: AI-powered interviews are becoming so common that some candidates now use AI to answer questions during the interview—prompting some companies to head back to in-person hiring. “There has to be some sort of reversal,” Katie warns. “How do you even trust that a resume was written by the person who actually did the job?”This is a refreshingly candid, real-world conversation about modern hiring challenges in the nonprofit sector. You'll walk away with smarter strategies, tech tools to explore (or avoid), and a renewed appreciation for the irreplaceable value of human connection. 00:00:00 Welcome and guest introduction 00:01:20 What Staffing Boutique does 00:03:50 AI enters nonprofit hiring 00:04:20 Understanding applicant tracking systems (ATS) 00:05:50 AI vs. human recruitment skills 00:07:00 Automating interviews and follow-ups 00:09:00 Why resume keywords matter 00:12:00 AI video interviews and ethics 00:14:45 Human touch vs. automation 00:17:30 LinkedIn Recruiter and candidate scoring 00:20:40 How AI tools can fake resumes 00:23:40 The case for returning to in-person hiring 00:27:00 Final thoughts and sector outlook Find us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

Sustainability as a Key Driver: Sustainability remains a significant concern, particularly for large companies with extensive supply chains, suggesting an ongoing focus on environmentally conscious practices within the industry.

In this episode of RevOps Champions, Brendon Dennewill welcomes Chris Briest, the founder of Mile High AI and a seasoned sales enablement leader, for an engaging discussion about the transformative power of AI in sales organizations. Chris shares his journey from SaaS enablement roles to launching his own consultancy, focusing on practical applications of AI rather than just theoretical potential. The conversation centers on how revenue leaders and individual sellers can leverage AI to differentiate themselves in a competitive market, stressing that the true winners will be those who adopt and effectively use these tools.A major highlight of the episode is the exploration of personalized outreach at scale. Chris explains how AI, when properly equipped with brand and persona context, can enable reps to perform high-level research and generate tailored messaging faster than ever—reducing prospecting and multithreading time by up to 80%. He provides actionable advice and live demonstrations on integrating custom GPTs and context kits into workflows, making it clear that the goal is to empower reps and streamline processes, not just add another layer of technology. They also tackle the hurdles of change management and adoption, emphasizing the importance of embedding AI seamlessly into existing routines and investing in continuous training.The conversation wraps up with a call to action for both sales leaders and individual reps. Senior leaders are urged to make decisive moves toward AI adoption, resisting the temptation to let change aversion stall progress, while reps are encouraged to invest in AI fluency as a way to advance their careers and become indispensable. Throughout the episode, Chris and Brendon's insights provide a roadmap for mid-market and emerging companies to harness the operational and competitive advantages AI offers—driving more relevant outbound activity, stronger conversations, and ultimately greater revenue impact.Find more at revopschampions.com

Ever wonder why diets fail, business strategies collapse? The answer lies not in the approach itself, but in how we think about implementing change. Thinking in first principles, Elon Musk's favorite mental model that helped him build seemingly impossible businesses, transforms how we approach challenges across all domains. When we stop following rules and shortcuts we don't understand and instead dig into the foundational elements of how things actually work, we create sustainable systems that adapt as our lives evolve. Consider the difference between "thinking in diets" versus "thinking like a nutritionist." The former might lead you to cut carbs without understanding their crucial role in brain function, hormone regulation, and overall health. The latter empowers you to make informed decisions based on your unique biology, lifestyle, and goals. This same principle applies whether you're building a business, improving relationships, or transforming your fitness. That's why personalized coaching works so effectively, it combines foundational principles with your specific context, strengths, weaknesses, and aspirations. Generic advice from the internet or social media can't account for your unique circumstances. Even advanced AI tools lack the lived experience necessary to fully grasp what implementation looks like in your particular life. Ready to transform your thinking and create lasting change diet or business? Tune in today! Grow into a better thinker.

If you're a coach, content creator, or entrepreneur struggling to stand out with your content, you need to hear this. In episode 274 of the School of Impact podcast, discover how Jason uses a custom GPT—trained entirely on his voice, content, and copywriting frameworks—to effortlessly produce high-performing, on-brand content across platforms. Whether you're tired of generic AI outputs or want to scale your messaging without sounding robotic, this episode is packed with actionable insights on building a powerful AI assistant that sounds just like you. Tune in and learn how to turn your voice into a content machine. “One of the secrets of this is, if you are not a great copywriter, and if you don't have loads of successful content or if you don't have loads of successful transcripts that you have from videos that you've done that have converted, to be honest, you're gonna have a mediocre chatGPT bot. So having a really good copy is key.” Key Takeaways: Custom GPTs Are Most Effective with a Solid Knowledge Base: To get high-quality, personalized content from AI, you must feed it with a strong knowledge base—your own successful posts, transcripts, and frameworks. Generic inputs lead to generic, ineffective outputs. Voice-to-Text Is a Powerful Instruction Tool: Jason uses voice texting to create detailed, authentic instructions for his custom GPTs, enabling them to replicate his tone, style, and strategic approach to copywriting. Content Creation Should Start with Your Genius Zone: AI should enhance your strengths—not replace them. Whether it's video speaking or writing, start with your natural medium and let AI help repurpose and scale it across platforms. GPTs Are a Leverage Tool, Not a Shortcut: AI should be used to create efficiency, not to avoid effort. When used properly—especially with brain dumps and structured refinement—it can help you generate endless content that still sounds like you.

How To Kick the Snooze Button Habit:Waking up several times interrupts and fragments sleep, which means you'll cycle back and forth between light, non restorative sleep and being awake, which isn't restful.It can leave you feeling tired and groggy when you finally get out of bed.It reinforces bad sleep habitsOn top of not feeling rested, alert and at your best, the sleep expert points out that consistently not getting enough sleep can raise the risk of weight gain, cardiovascular disorders, metabolic disorders and even dementia.Fortunately, you can break the sleep-snooze cycle by:Making sure you're getting enough sleep to feel truly rested, which is between seven and eight hours a night for most folks.Sticking to a consistent sleep schedule, which Auckley notes is easier if you time to rise to when your internal body clock starts to wake you up.In the morning, try to resist hitting snooze and get up as soon as your alarm goes off.Getting morning light exposure as soon as possible when you wake up, which helps keep your internal clock in sync and improves alertness.Have a positive morning ritual to look forward to, whether it's enjoying freshly made coffee on your porch or catching up on sports scores.Things You Are Still Wasting Your Money On:ATM FeesIn 2025, paying ATM fees is almost a fool's errand. With so many online banks offering free ATM withdrawals and brick-and-mortar banks offering a large network of free ATMs or ATM fee reimbursement, paying several dollars a month is seemingly avoidable. Simply put, there's no reason to waste money on fees just to access your own cash so even if it takes planning ahead, make sure you omit this expense.Bottled WaterShockingly, people continue to spend money on bottled water, even given both the financial and environmental downfalls. If you don't trust your tap water, even the cost of installing a filter or having one in your fridge can make it worth your money in the long run. Stop paying for something you can essentially get for free and invest in a quality reusable water bottle for when you're on the go.Brand-Name MedicationsUnless you're specifically advised by your doctor, opting for brand-name medications over their generic counterparts is a pointless expenditure. Generic drugs have the same active ingredients and undergo the same quality control as their branded counterparts. Switching to generics can save you hundreds or even thousands of dollars annually without compromising on health.Cable TV SubscriptionsThe world has moved on from traditional cable television, but many are still holding onto it — along with its hefty bill. Streaming services like Netflix, Hulu, and Disney+ offer customizable viewing options for a fraction of the price and even bundling options. If you're still paying for a bloated cable package, it's time to cut the cord and switch to more budget-friendly entertainment options.Extended WarrantiesRetailers love to upsell extended warranties, but the truth is, they're seldom worth it. Most products are built to last for at least the length of their original warranty, and by the time they break, chances are you'd be looking to upgrade anyway. Instead of shelling out for extended warranties, set aside a small emergency fund for when things really go wrong.Fast FashionCheap, trendy clothing may seem like a good deal, but fast fashion is a money pit. These clothes are usually poorly made and fall apart after just a few wears, forcing you to constantly replenish your wardrobe in a never-ending cycle for your closet and nearest landfill. Instead, invest in quality, timeless pieces that last longer. You'll not only save money but also reduce your environmental footprint.Premium Gas for Non-Luxury CarsUnless your car specifically requires premium gasoline, you're throwing money away by filling up with it, especially when gas prices are already so high. Modern engines are designed to run efficiently on regular unleaded gas, and using premium won't give you any added benefits in performance. Stick to regular gas and watch your fuel expenses drop in what you pay at the pump.Overpriced Online Shopping on AmazonName-brand phone chargers, headphones, and other items can cost up to three times as much on Amazon when compared to other retailers or the product's own website. Check reviews before you add something to your cart as many will let you know if it's worth the cost. Don't be afraid to shop around, as varying sticker prices could shock you.Unused Gym MembershipsIn 2025, no matter your fitness resolutions, there's no reason to pay for a gym membership you're not using. With the explosion of online workout platforms, free YouTube fitness channels, and affordable apps, staying in shape no longer requires an expensive gym pass, particularly if you don't go regularly. If you're still paying for a membership you rarely use, it's time to cancel and explore the world of free digital fitness.What ER Doctors Bring On Vacation:Anti-nausea medication - “Always pack Zofran, just in case,” said Dr. Cedric Dark, associate professor of emergency medicine at Baylor College of Medicine. “The feeling of nausea and vomiting is one of the most hated things you could ever imagine and there's nothing over-the-counter that is that helpful.” Zofran is only available by prescription, but it dissolves under your tongue, so it works even when you can't really keep anything down.A bug zapper - Dr. Dark says standalone mosquito traps or a mosquito zapper racquet like the one he uses are must-haves for traveling somewhere tropical, where the insects can carry serious diseases like West Nile virus, Zika virus and dengue fever.Tweezers - They're a fix for the far more simple, but common problem of splinters, and that's why tweezers are a travel essential for Dr. Joy Crook, associate professor of clinical emergency medicine at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.Compression socks - The CDC warns that traveling for more than four hours by air, car or bus raises the risk of developing blood clots, but wearing compression socks can help lower that risk. That's why they're a go-to for Dr. Erin Muckey, associate professor of emergency medicine at Rutgers New Jersey Medical School.A portable charger - Dr. Eric Adkins, an emergency medicine physician at the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, points out that you can't call for help or look up where the nearest pharmacy or hospital is with a dead phone battery, so he packs a portable charger.A carbon monoxide detector - Dr. Crook says this is a recent addition to her travel bag, since several stories of travelers dying from carbon monoxide poisoning have happened this year alone.Melatonin - Not sleeping well can weaken the immune system, which can make you more likely to get sick, but melatonin supplements can help “reset your internal clock,” according to Adkins, so you can snooze.Second Date Update: Dalia and Reggie go to the Mountain Winery to see Chris Isaak. She loved every minute. He has disappeared...was it her dancing?
