Dr. Laura welcomes Hillary Rideout and Steve Brierley to Where Work Meets Life™ to talk about inspiring better humans and their new book on the subject. Hillary and Steve previously collaborated on “Being a Better Human Teenager” and that book and its reception led to their new follow-up book, “Inspiring Better Humans”. Dr. Laura explores why Steve and Hillary are drawn to inspiring young people, their thoughts on making a difference, and how having a purpose can change lives.Steve and Hillary work together in the Better Human Group, a project that fuelled their first book, and one of the discoveries they share is that a common factor among the profiled teenagers was very involved parents. They discuss how having a purpose and believing in the ability to offer something to the world positively impacts everyone, not just teenagers. The message in their books resonates with teens and parents alike and has inspired purposeful action in classrooms, which is part of the solution to combating mental illness in young people. Dr. Laura's conversation with Steve and Hillary opens a window into the lives of extraordinary teens and caring parents and how any one of us can tap into our ability to change the world for the better.“These kids truly felt like they could have an impact on the world. And they did. And that was very motivating to the kids in the class who were reading the stories and then actually creating their own plan to do something similar” Hillary Rideout“To me, the message is very clear. And I think it is that when you do something to help somebody, you also help yourself. And for me, if we can get this message out to others, I think it would be just an incredible impact.” Steve BrierleyAbout Steve Brierley:Over the past 20 years, Steve has held progressive positions in corporate training, talent management and executive leadership development in corporate and post-secondary sectors.While working in California, Steve was the General Manager of a multi-national corporate training organization that focused on delivering IT skills and leadership development for Fortune 100 organizations and government agencies.After four years in the USA, Steve returned to Canada and joined SAIT's corporate training department in the role of Corporate Learning Advisor, followed by the role of Director of Executive Education at the University of Alberta School of Business. He then joined the energy sector as Group Lead, Corporate Training & Talent Management at Encana Inc., followed by Director of Executive Development & Talent Management at Enbridge, Steve then joined Canadian Tire as Associate Vice President of Talent Management.

Acts 2:42-47  //  They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. 43 Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. 44 All the believers were together and had everything in common. 45 They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. 46 Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, 47 praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved. Authentic, Honest, Life-Changing Relationships. Backbone Ecclesiastes 4:8-12  //  There was a man all alone; he had neither son nor brother. There was no end to his toil, yet his eyes were not content with his wealth. “For whom am I toiling,” he asked, “and why am I depriving myself of enjoyment?”. . . Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up. Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone? Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.

Romans 12:5  //  Since we are all one body in Christ, we belong to each other, and each of us needs all the others. ARENA: I know and you know. Matthew 23:5, 7  //  “Everything they do is done for people to see: They make their phylacteries wide and the tassels on their garments long.” “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of the bones of the dead and everything unclean.”> MASK: I know but you don't know. I'll always stay as sick as my secrets. 2 Corinthians 4:2  //  We refuse to wear masks and play games. We don't maneuver and manipulate behind the scenes. And we don't twist God's Word to suit ourselves. Rather, we keep everything we do and say out in the open, the whole truth on display, so that those who want to can see and judge for themselves in the presence of God. “Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another, ‘What! You too? I thought I was the only one.'” - C.S. Lewis John 3:16-21  //  For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God's one and only Son. This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God. James 5:16  //  Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. BLIND SPOTS: I don't know but you know. Proverbs 27:6  //  Faithful are the wounds of a friend, But the kisses of an enemy are deceitful. Hebrews 3:12-13  //  See to it, brothers and sisters, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God. But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called “Today,” so that none of you may be hardened by sin's deceitfulness. POTENTIAL: I don't know and you don't know.

In the fifth episode of the Longevity & Aging Series, Dr. Amit Sharma, Group Lead from SENS Research Foundation, Mountain View, CA, discusses a research paper he co-authored that was published in Volume 14, Issue 5, of Aging (Aging-US), entitled, “Enhanced co-culture and enrichment of human natural killer cells for the selective clearance of senescent cells.” DOI - https://doi.org/10.18632/aging.203931 Corresponding Author - Amit Sharma - amit.sharma@sens.org Video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQR8_gm2gUI Abstract In the context of aging and age-associated diseases, Natural Killer (NK) cells have been revealed as a key cell type responsible for the immune clearance of senescent cells. Subsequently, NK cell-based therapies have emerged as promising alternatives to drug-based therapeutic interventions for the prevention and treatment of age-related disease and debility. Given the promise of NK cell-mediated immunotherapies as a safe and effective treatment strategy, we outline an improved method by which primary NK cells can be efficiently enriched from human peripheral blood across multiple donors (ages 20-42 years old), with a practical protocol that reliably enhances both CD56dim and CD56bright NK cells by 15-fold and 3-fold, respectively. Importantly, we show that our co-culture protocol can be used as an easily adaptable tool to assess highly efficient and selective killing of senescent cells by primary NK cells enriched via our method using longer co-culture durations and a low target to effector ratio, which may be more physiological than has been achieved in previous literature.

One of the big challenges for health IT companies is onboarding new customers for something like payments. Turns out, a bank we all probably know, KeyBank, acquired a company called XUP Payments to address this problem and the challenges of collecting payments in healthcare. I had a chance to sit down with Pete Wheeler, SVP, Group Lead, Healthcare and Insurance Payments at KeyBank, and Jeff Gill, Healthcare Go-To-Market Lead at XUP Payments, to learn about how they're helping healthcare organizations when it comes to payments. They shared with us some of the major pain points they see and hear about in the healthcare industry and then they talk about what can be done to address these challenges.

This piece is a continued deep dive into the subject, of 'fitness, function, or frailty' and, perhaps, "fixing". It's essential listening for anyone interested in the latest thinking on this crucial topic and was a highlight of the London conference. How can we integrate frailty and cognitive scores in risk assessment tools to facilitate inclusion in shared decision making? How can we improve a surgical colleague's ability to identify frailty? Most patients will have an operation sometime in their life; should surgical school be renamed and moved to being a "well being" clinic and offered to all patients? What screening tools would you recommend if only minimal time or money is available? Is pre-op screening actually 'public health' and should it really be being done for everyone? What are the differences and where is the overlap between fitness functional capacity, frailty, and sarcopenia? In mild cognitive impairment, should we tell patient that it will work and postop and not be expected to fully recover? What strategies have you found most helpful in engaging surgeons with identifying their frail patients? How are we tackling the workforce shortage among geriatricians? What has your experience been in advising achieving physical fitness in patients who present to surgery with persistent pain which is a limitation? This is part two of a two part piece.

Alanna M. Carter, LEED AP Principal, Practice Group Lead at HGA is Cheryl’s guest today on the podcast. Cheryl asks Alanna the question, “How have you and your team responded to the pandemic and what’s happening now within your firm?” Alanna took a breath and shared, “It’s interesting as leaders. I don’t think any of us could have realized how we were going to have to navigate through that [pandemic + social unrest in Minneapolis] and then our healthcare clients who were in the middle of being these safety nets for people in the midst of it. How do they understand how to manage through that?” Lean in and listen to this heartfelt and meaningful conversation about what healthcare design innovation looks like today from the inside of one of the largest architecture and engineering firms in Minnesota. Learn more about Alanna M. Carter, LEED AP Principal, Practice Group Lead at HGA by visiting: https://hga.com/. In Cheryl’s conversation with Alanna M. Carter, they discuss: How have Alanna and HGA responded to the pandemic and what was it like during those first few months of the crisis? How did HGA respond to the social unrest that happened in Minnesota and what it meant to HGA’s healthcare clients. What have been some of the benefits of working at home during the pandemic? What was it like among HGA’s senior living and healthcare products when the pandemic hit and how has that shifted? How is patient flow now changing in the hospital setting, and what are some of the emerging patient needs that HGA is now looking at and integrating in healthcare spaces? Are vendors and manufacturers of healthcare products changing? What is Alanna seeing? How is AI involved in this? Why are hospitals in Minneapolis and around the country seeing less violence in the hospital setting, as a result of family members and friends not allowed to visit their loved ones?  What is the impact of COVID on healthcare facilities and what is HGA’s Flexible, Resilient Design?
