We're at a pivotal moment in world geopolitics. Increasingly the masks and the gloves are both off - but it's not a binary choice any more between two sets of suits in slightly different coloured ties: now we have the right showing its true colours  - and a chance for the progressive majority in this country to find its feet and lead us towards a genuinely thoughtful, emotionally literate, high-bandwidth politics that ditches the toxic tribalism and instead lays the ground for a future that could actually work. We're joined this week by Neal Lawson, co-founder and Executive Director of the progressive pressure group, Compass; and Rupert Read, Co-Director of the Climate Majority Project. Neal is a member of the Labour Party, and Rupert of the Green party and we came together to discuss the forthcoming by-election in Makerfield, where Andy Burnham, Mayor of Greater Manchester is standing as a candidate, with a view to standing for leadership of the Labour Party if he wins.  His main challenger is the Reform party led by Nigel Farage.  The Greens are newly invigorated after their recent win in the Gorton and Denton by-election in Manchester, so there has been a lot of conversation in progressive circles as to whether the Greens should step away to give Burnham a clear run. This seemed a good moment to have a vigorous conversation - to explore the possibilities and potential and the routes forward should Burnham win.

Growing up doesn’t come with instructions, so we made a podcast about figuring it out together. Season 4 of Grown Up Stuff tackles the life skills, decisions, and responsibilities that suddenly become very real in adulthood. From bringing home a newborn for the first time to navigating international travel, buying the right smoke detectors, moving apartments, understanding investing, and protecting your finances, this season is all about the stuff nobody fully prepares you for. Hosts Lea Palmieri and Matt Stillo talk with experts, professionals, and people who’ve learned things the hard way to break down the practical side of adult life without making it feel overwhelming. Along the way, they explore everything from home safety hidden dangers and jet lag survival to budgeting, relationships, parenting anxiety, and how to actually feel financially confident in your 20s and 30s. Whether you’re trying to baby-proof your house, figure out a Roth IRA, survive a cross-country move, or simply feel a little less behind in life, Grown Up Stuff is here to help. Because nobody totally knows what they’re doing...some people are just better at Googling it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if the biggest threat to your company is not competition, but the systems everyone told you to trust?In this episode, Alisa Cohn sits down with Eric Ries, creator of the Lean Startup methodology and bestselling author of The Lean Startup, The Startup Way, and Incorruptible, for a conversation about leadership, corporate governance, innovation, and why so many modern companies lose their way as they grow.Eric unpacks the dangerous side of “best practices,” why shareholder primacy often destroys long-term value, and how financial pressure quietly reshapes company culture from the inside out.

Well, it wasn't the most exciting Budget week was it? Finance Minister Nicola Willis' budget was designed around fiscal restraint, deficit reduction, and a return to operating surplus by 2028/29 (depending on the accounting measure used!). It does appear to make progress toward reducing spending growth. Major savings are expected from restructuring the public service and ending the final-year “fees free” tertiary policy. Whether these cuts are fully achievable is uncertain. The plan to reduce around 8700 public-sector jobs by 2029 relies on agency mergers, technology adoption, and continued restraint across departments. That's a lot to get done right. Critics argue these reductions may prove politically difficult due to differences between the coalition parties. On the revenue side, the Government introduced a new levy on banks and insurers and adjusted several tax settings, but the Budget largely depends on stronger future growth to lift tax receipts over time to make the numbers work. The Government also attempted to address productivity and long-term growth through increased capital investment in infrastructure, defence, hospitals, schools, vocational training, and technology development. Supporters argue these investments will improve economic capacity over time. Critics contend we still lack a comprehensive productivity strategy and under-invest in innovation and business growth. So it's not an aspirational Budget. Or an interesting one. It's not a Budget that is going to seriously address inequality and inequity in NZ. It's a back to basics, practical Budget and pretty much what we were expecting. But what I do like, and what makes this Budget distinctive, is the medium and long-term approach which, considering the pickle we're in, is refreshingly grown-up. This is a Budget focused on long-term economic management rather than near-term popularity. It largely devoid of gimmicks, bribes, or incentives for voters. This is a Budget that draws a line in the sand. This is National and the coalition practising what they preach and defining themselves by their decision making. Whether the strategy succeeds politically is another question. Yes, it demonstrates fiscal credibility and attempts to address underlying economic weaknesses. But you can also argue the Government has underestimated public demand for immediate cost-of-living relief. Overall, the Budget moves New Zealand closer to stabilising debt and returning to surplus, but its success depends heavily on economic growth forecasts, successful implementation of spending cuts, and stable global conditions. Given weaker growth projections and international uncertainty, achieving surplus by 2029–2030 is far from guaranteed. As ever, it's another case of us needing to hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Adam Miller is one of more than a dozen candidates running for mayor of Los Angeles, but unlike some of his rivals, he comes from the worlds of tech and nonprofit management rather than politics. Miller founded the e-learning company Cornerstone and the homelessness prevention nonprofit Better Angels, and says he entered the race because he believes the city's failures — especially around homelessness — are fundamentally operational. In this conversation, Miller explains why encampments persist outside housing facilities, why affordable housing costs have spiraled, why shelters can sit half-empty, and why the city still lacks basic real-time data on homelessness. He also addresses the strange dynamics of a campaign unfolding in an attention economy where reality star Spencer Pratt has emerged as a serious contender. Miller argues that while he and Pratt often identify the same problems, he has the management experience to actually implement solutions. Guest Bio: Adam Miller, a tech entrepreneur and chief executive of the nonprofit Better Angels, is running for mayor of Los Angeles.

Remember the fun of summer league swimming? The relays, the snacks, and hanging out with your friends by the pool? Brian Robbins is bringing that exact energy back to the sport with Grown-Up Swimming, a recreational summer swim league designed specifically for adults.   In this episode of the Social Kick Podcast, Brian, John, and Luke sit down with Brian Robbins to discuss the massive, rapid growth of Grown-Up Swimming—expanding from just 7 leagues in 2023 to over 45 cities nationwide today. We dive into the hilarious origin story behind the league's name (and why Turner Broadcasting's "Adult Swim" forced their hand), the wildly creative team names, and why this format is acting as the "pickleball" of the swimming world by making the sport more accessible, relaxed, and fun.   Whether you are a former elite athlete looking to casually race a 25 freestyle or someone swimming in your very first competitive meet, Grown-Up Swimming has a lane for you. Grab a mystery-flavored Airhead, crack a cold one, and tune in to learn how you can join the adult summer league movement!

What if the thing you've been told to build… isn't the thing that actually creates results?In this encore episode, Gina Bianchini joins Alisa Cohn to break down why community, not content, not audience size, not algorithms, is the real driver of transformation, retention, and long-term business growth.This conversation goes far beyond theory.

Send us Fan MailA game is loading, a video looks fun, and then a screen pops up demanding your birthday. Why does an app need your age, and what happens if you type it in without thinking? I dig into the real reason age questions show up so often and why that “quick little form” is actually a big online safety moment for kids and families.We connect age gates to real-world rules kids already understand, like movie ratings and height signs at amusement parks. Then we talk about where AI and automated systems can show up: sorting users into age groups, limiting certain features, and shaping what content gets recommended. I'm careful to point out a key truth: an app can ask for your age and still be a bad fit for kids. That's why your best protection is not the app itself, it's your brain, your questions, and a trusted grown-up who can help check settings and permissions.You'll leave with three simple rules to remember, including why your birthday is personal information and why you never have to type private details just because a screen asks. To make it practical, I share a screen-free game you can play at home or in class called “Kid, Grown Up, Or Ask First,” using examples like chat games, shopping apps, learning apps, and even school tools that request a birthday.If this helped, download and share the episode with another parent, teacher, or curious kid, and subscribe on your favorite podcast app or YouTube.

Do you have adult children? Maybe like me, you have a college student. My youngest son graduated high school last year and went away to college, so I am officially an empty nester. Maybe you have a child who just graduated college and is now adulting. This happened for me too. I am excited to share with you this amazing book I read, *Doing Life With Your Adult Children by Jim Burns. The subtitle is Keep your mouth shut and the welcome mat out. This book is a must read if you have adult children! I have found it to be so helpful. One of things I love is that he talks about how our role as parents has changed. He says, "The role you play in your children's lives must diminish in order for them to transition from adolescence to responsible adulthood." On the podcast this week, I will be sharing four strategies to help you embrace your new job description, and I know these will help you as you parent your adult children! Important Links: *How We Love by Milan and Kay Yerkovich (marriage book) Link to Depth Podcast Episode 140: my conversation with Milan and Kay about their book, *How We Love Our Kids (parenting book). Learn the love styles and growth steps for each one. *The Grown-Up's Guide to Teenage Humans by Josh Ship (parenting teens book that I refer to in the episode. Link to Depth Podcast Episode 159 where I highlight Josh Ship's teenage book. I ask the question: What if you were the one? What if you were "the Rodney" in your teenager's life? Click the link above to hear more-- it is an amazing story. *Note: If you are interested in purchasing this book or any of the books recommended, I would love for you to use the Amazon Affiliate link above to help support the podcast.

Ever feel like you believe in God… but it's not actually changing your life?Maybe you grew up around faith—or maybe you didn't—but something still feels missing. Like you're going through the motions without anything real behind it.In 2 Timothy 1, Paul reminds Timothy that faith can be passed down—but it still has to become personal. You can't inherit it. You have to choose it.And even real faith can grow cold if it's never nurtured.That's why Paul tells him to “fan into flame” his faith (2 Timothy 1:6) and live with power, love, and self-discipline—not fear (2 Timothy 1:7). Faith isn't meant to sit still—it's meant to grow.If your faith feels distant, stuck, or disconnected, this message will help you take a real next step.Watch, reflect, and start making your faith your own.

Do "YOU" still parent your kids even though they are grown ass adults?

What does it actually take to lead when the stakes are real, the decisions are heavy, and people are counting on you?In this episode of From Start-Up to Grown-Up, Alisa Cohn sits down with Tanay Kothari, Co-Founder and CEO of Wispr Flow, one of the most talked-about AI companies right now, to explore what it means to build, lead, and grow at a level most founders never reach.Tanay may be a young founder, but the way he thinks about leadership, people, and decision-making is anything but early-stage. This conversation goes deep into the realities of building a company, not just the strategy, but the responsibility, the trade-offs, and the emotional weight that comes with it.They unpack what founders often get wrong about vision versus execution, why the hardest decisions are usually the right ones, and how to lead teams through uncertainty without losing trust.Tanay also shares his approach to managing people more experienced than him, why understanding how each individual wants to be led changes everything, and how aligning on beliefs, not just decisions, can transform how teams operate.This is a conversation about leadership under pressure, building with intention, and becoming the kind of founder your company actually needs.You'll learn:What founders get wrong about vision vs. execution, and how to separate the twoHow to navigate difficult decisions, including layoffs, without losing your integrityHow to lead and influence people who are more experienced than youThe power of aligning on beliefs instead of debating decisionsHow to build faster, more effective teams through shared frameworksWhat it really means to take responsibility as a founderThe trade-offs required to build a company, and how to choose them consciouslyHow emotional maturity becomes a leadership advantageWhy great leaders focus on how they show up, not just what they buildWe talk about:00:00 Building from a young age and what drives Tanay03:00 Early product thinking and what makes great products work06:00 The difference between vision and execution in startups09:00 Making hard decisions and leading through uncertainty12:00 The emotional reality of layoffs and responsibility as a founder16:00 The weight of leadership and the trade-offs of building a company23:00 Managing and leading people more experienced than you26:00 Why personalization matters in leadership (“love languages” for teams)29:00 Aligning on beliefs vs relying on authority35:00 Building decision-making frameworks that scale with your team41:00 How small systems unlock massive team productivity46:00 Why entry-level roles are disappearing and what replaces them49:00 Advice for young professionals in an AI-first world55:00 Creating fast feedback loops to build better products58:00 Why most companies build too many products too soon01:01:00 Imposter syndrome and the hidden pressure of leadership01:04:30 Final lessons on leadership, people, and building something that lastsConnect with Alisa!Follow Alisa Cohn on Instagram: @alisacohnTwitter: @alisacohnFacebook: facebook.com/alisa.cohnLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alisacohn/Website: http://www.alisacohn.comDownload her 5 scripts for delicate conversations (and 1 to make your life better) Grab a copy of From Start-Up to Grown-Up by Alisa Cohn from Amazon

There's a reason we don't call it juvenile diabetes anymore. We all know you grow up and T1D doesn't go anywhere, and that you can be diagnosed at any age. But it often feels like adults are forgotten. I hope that's not the case here—but I hear it all the time in the broader community. Kelly Dawes is working to change that. She's started GrownUp T1Ds, a community built specifically for adults who've been living with type 1 for years and are finally finding connection, understanding, and support in a way they may never have had before.

“This is, I think, when people need more help remembering how to access their play or kind of letting themselves play—because adults do play,” says Cas Holman, a world-renowned designer and the author of Playful: How Play Shifts Our Thinking, Inspires Connection, and Sparks Creativity. Today, we talk a bit about Holman’s unique approach to play for kids, but mostly we talk about what she’s doing to help adults shift their mindsets—so that we might find age-appropriate ways to play that we genuinely enjoy and that can serve as a salve for our communities.
