Drawing on extensive experience navigating major shifts in the commercial real estate market, Melissa Copley reflects on her practice with McGuireWoods partner and host Phil Coover. Now vice chairman at Newmark in Chicago, where she represents large tenants of office space in major metropolitan areas, Melissa highlights the impact of today's economic and geopolitical conditions. As tenants consider issues of economic uncertainty and occupancy, they tend to put off decision-making. “I always like to have my clients start early, especially now. It is a shrinking pool of good alternatives,” she says. Tune in for other insights, including why AI can't replace strategic brain power, what happens when premier space goes vacant, and what strong tenants are looking for in amenities.

In this episode, Cami returns to her annual tradition of choosing a single word to guide the year ahead—favoring intention over resolution—and reflects on how last year's word unfolded during a period of sustained ambiguity and high-stakes leadership. She shares candid insights on leading without full information, staying grounded in values, and navigating the mental and emotional load that comes with prolonged uncertainty. As the conversation looks ahead to 2026, Cami introduces a new guiding word that signals a meaningful shift in how she approaches steadiness, decision-making, and self-trust. Join us for a thoughtful reflection on leadership, abundance, and what it means to move forward with clarity—even when the path isn't fully visible.
Welcome back to the tasty morsels of critical care podcast. Today we’re going to have a quick overview of the oesophageal balloon. If you’re directed to a patient in your long case who has an oesophageal balloon in, then you’re probably having a bad day. It would seem very unfair to have too many questions on this but an awareness of their existence and some cliff notes on their basic use might come in handy especially if you’re doing well and you’re in the medal type territory of the exam. Exams aside they’re a useful gateway drug into some important respiratory mechanics that are relevant to all of us. At their most basic these are fancy NG tubes with an inflatable balloon that should end up in the lower third of the oesophagus. Inflating the balloon with a small amount of air allows you to transduce the pressure at the area the balloon lies. While that sounds straightforward there are large sections of review papers dedicated to troubleshooting placement and means of assuring the number you generate is actually accurate. I refer you to the below references for further reading. The pressure measured is called the oesophageal pressure, often abbreviated to Pes because it seems the Americans won the spelling war on that one. Oesophageal pressure is a reasonable surrogate (with assumptions of course) for pressure within the pleural space. Once we have an estimate of pleural pressure we can subtract that from the plateau pressure displayed on the vent and we end up with a fancy number called the transpulmonary pressure. The transpulmonary pressure or Ptp is the distending pressure applied to the lung either from the muscles of spontaneous ventilation or from positive pressure ventilation from the ventilator. Whoopdy do says the examiner – you now have another number you don’t really know what to do with. What should we use this data for, the examiner is asking? Well a short list of useful aspects you can look at with the oesophageal balloon include compensating for the effect of the chest wall on respiratory mechanics appropriate titration of PEEP assessing the contribution of respiratory muscle use to potential lung injury assessing triggering and synchrony issues At this stage you’d be hoping the examiner is satiated and you can move on to something else but in the unlikely and terrifying event that they ask for more detail you might want to mention some of the following. Our typical approach to safe ventilation in the passively ventilated patient is to look at driving pressures and tidal volumes. But this takes no account for the contribution of the chest wall. In the very obese patient there is a lot of flesh pressing down on the chest wall, this leads to an increasingly positive pleural pressure. It would make sense that we would need more pressure to distend the lungs in this scenario. The balloon in this scenario will allow you to set your PEEP appropriately. The Ptp at end expiration needs to sit somewhere in the 0-10cmH20 range to avoid derecruitment and in end inspiration it needs to be less than 25cmH20. This may need a lot more PEEP or less driving pressure than you’re used to giving and the balloon can help you feel safe about doing that. In the patient weaning from the ventilator in a spontaneous mode the oesohpageal balloon can be used to make an estimate of the contribution of the patients muscular effort to the transpulmonary pressure. Your patient may be on 10/5 on a pressure support mode and you may well be lulled into a false sense of security that because the pressure numbers on the vent are modest then the pressures being exerted across the lung are also modest. What we are not measuring in this scenario is the distending pressure being applied to the lungs by the respiratory muscles, the Pmus. The balloon in this scenario can give an estimate of this as it reflects the negative pleural pressure generated by the patients inspiratory efforts allowing us to come up with a Ptp number that takes Pmus into consideration. Sometimes this might encourage you to increase the support from the vent, sometimes this might encourage you to increase the sedation depending on the context. So given all the wonderful things the balloon can do for us why are we not doing it on everyone? A list of reasons not to use oesophagaeal balloons might include cost – these fancy NG tubes are pricier than you would think compatible software on the ventilators. These frequently don’t come as standard appropriate placement. These are tricky to get right and knowing that the number generated is valid is not entirely straightforward. Lots of assumptions are made the Pes number reflects pleural pressure only at a single location and does not take account of heterogeneity. the evidence base is unclear if this adds anything over doing something like simply following the high PEEP table from ARDSnet. Interestingly several research groups (thinking the folk from Toronto or Luigi Camporata in london) have used balloons to identify surrogate ways of measuring recruitment or estimating Pmus that we can easily measure on a standard ventilator set up. This may well be a way of bringing the important concepts of transpulmonary pressure to the bedside. Reading: The Toronto Mechanical Vent Course was an excellent intro for resp mechanics for me.

Most people are sitting on a wealth-building asset they use every single day…but they've never learned how to activate it. That asset is your mouth. Your words—used the right way—can actually create wealth. And no, I'm not talking about manifesting, visualizing, or trying to “speak money into existence.” What I'm talking about is far more practical and far more powerful: the specific kinds of words you put out into the world determine the opportunities and income that come back to you. Right now I'm going to show you the three types of words that create wealth—and how to start using them today.

What if the child who seems to have it all together is actually struggling the most? Join us as we sit down with Colorado therapist Stacy Schaffer, who offers her expertise on the hidden emotional battles children face during parental conflict and divorce. We examine the façade of the "shiny kid," outwardly thriving yet internally wrestling with feelings of guilt and responsibility. Stacy shares strategies to empower these young ones by focusing on their ability to control their emotions and reactions, providing them with a much-needed sense of agency and resilience.We also explore the creation of "comfort kits," a resourceful way to help children engage their five senses to navigate challenging situations. Discover how to fill these kits with comforting sensory items, such as personalized notes and soothing scents, to offer solace and connection wherever they are. Additionally, we discuss the potential future of counseling services beyond Colorado and Texas, as changes in professional licensing could soon make mental health support more accessible. Tune in for practical strategies and insights that promise to support children in managing their emotions and to stay informed on the evolving landscape of mental health services.

Welcome to the Leading Edge in Emotionally Focused Therapy, hosted by Drs. James Hawkins, Ph.D., LPC, and Ryan Rana, Ph.D., LMFT, LPC—Renowned ICEEFT Therapists, Supervisors, and Trainers. We're thrilled to have you with us. We believe this podcast, a valuable resource, will empower you to push the boundaries in your work, helping individuals and couples connect more deeply with themselves and each other. Step into a heartfelt conversation where Dr. James Hawkins and Nicola Hawkins explore the art of externalization in emotion-focused therapy. This episode delves into how therapists can gently guide clients into their most vulnerable spaces without overwhelming them—using creative, compassionate externalization techniques. Listeners will find practical strategies, authentic reflections, and moments of inspiration that underscore the importance of safety, attunement, and reintegration throughout the therapeutic journey. It's a compassionate guide for every EFT therapist looking to expand their “toolkit” for helping clients move courageously into their own healing. Top Points from the Episode: - Upcoming training opportunities in EFT and gratitude for the therapy community, especially during challenging times. - The concept of externalization as a gentle intervention to help clients face vulnerability when direct approaches would overwhelm. - Creative metaphors and analogies—for example, “letting clients breathe but not leave”—to describe how to stay connected and supportive in tough moments. - Techniques for externalization: using third-person references, prototypes, past versions of self, and broader narratives to create safety. - The crucial process of reintegrating externalized parts to support clients' healing and growth. - Reflection on the therapist's role in providing validation, understanding, and new perspectives. - Practical adaptations for different cultural and client contexts, ensuring inclusivity and relevance. - Emphasis on co-creating meaning—from reframing past experiences to fostering autonomy and choice within sessions. - Encouragement for therapists to remain flexible, observant, and compassionate when clients hit emotional blocks. - Inspiring reminders about the transformative power of working on the client's “leading edge”—where real change happens. We aim to equip therapists with practical tools and encouragement for addressing relational distress. We're also excited to be part of the team behind Success in Vulnerability (SV)—your premier online education platform.

As AI reshapes the modern business landscape, one truth is becoming unmistakable: the partnership between CFOs and CIOs has never been more essential. In this episode of CPM Customer Success, we explore why Finance and IT are being pulled into tighter alignment, and how the organizations that embrace this collaboration are setting themselves up for speed, clarity, and long-term strategic advantage.

Oh, maman... On this episode of Star Trek Universe, it's a dash of racism,a sprinkling of imperialism, and a skosh of jingoism as Effie and I roll our eyes along to one of the absolute worst episodes of Star Trek ever produced – an episode so bad it was repeatedly rejected by the studio, from the beginning! We're talking Roddenberry's pet project, "The Omega Glory", maman! It ain't pretty.

In this conversation, Community Cats Podcast host Stacy LeBaron unpacks her decades of nonprofit leadership, using the lens of animal welfare to illustrate how organizations evolve from scrappy, all-hands-on-deck startups into strategically focused, governance-driven institutions. Drawing on her experience mentoring 80+ organizations and running a successful feline rescue nonprofit, Stacy explains the realities of cat overpopulation, the challenge of transitioning boards from operational to governance roles, the complications of hiring an executive director, and the tensions that arise when long-time board members struggle to relinquish hands-on duties. She highlights the importance of clear communication, strong leadership structures, and succession planning as nonprofits mature, and underscores how internal dynamics, not funding alone, ultimately determine organizational stability. Key Takeaways The Community Cats Podcast focuses on turning passion for cats into community action, with an emphasis on reducing cat overpopulation and improving access to affordable spay/neuter services. Stacy created the Catmobile, a mobile spay/neuter clinic, as a scalable solution that transformed Massachusetts' cat population management. An “adolescent nonprofit” is one shifting from reactive habits to strategic planning, typically when boards begin moving from operational involvement toward governance. Operational boards often mix volunteer duties with oversight, creating confusion—especially when staff are hired for roles board members still want to perform. Transitioning to a true governance board requires clarity, transparency, and sometimes a dramatic reshaping of board membership; Stacy's board shrank from 22 to 11 in one day. Healthy board–executive director relationships depend on communication structures that prevent bottlenecks while preserving accountability. Hiring a first executive director often raises questions about financial sustainability and fundraising responsibilities; expectations must be explicitly discussed during recruitment. It can take three to five years for a new executive director to fully hit stride and begin delivering significant programmatic and fundraising growth. Mature boards come in different forms—some are ED-led, some are institutionalized—but all require succession planning to prevent stagnation or collapse. Organizational maturity is defined less by funding levels and more by leadership stability, role clarity, and the ability to function smoothly despite staff or board turnover. e welcome support of the Nonprofit SnapCast via Patreon.

Join Andrea Samadi as she reviews Dr. Shane Creado's insights on why sleep is a core pillar of brain health, how chronic sleep deprivation harms reaction time, inflammation, pain perception, and why children pay the highest price. Learn practical sleep strategies—consistent schedules, light management, wind-down routines—and how the Silva Method's mind-training can deepen restorative sleep for athletes, high performers, and families. Welcome back to SEASON 14 of The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning and emotional intelligence training for improved well-being, achievement, productivity and results—using what I saw as the missing link (since we weren't taught this when we were growing up in school), the application of practical neuroscience. I'm Andrea Samadi, and seven years ago, launched this podcast with a question I had never truly asked myself before: (and that is) If productivity and results matter to us—and they do now more than ever—how exactly are we using our brain to make them happen? Most of us were never taught how to apply neuroscience to improve productivity, results, or well-being. About a decade ago, I became fascinated by the mind-brain-results connection—and how science can be applied to our everyday lives. That's why I've made it my mission to bring you the world's top experts—so together, we can explore the intersection of science and social-emotional learning. We'll break down complex ideas and turn them into practical strategies we can use every day for predictable, science-backed results. This week, we move onto PART 2 of our review of EP 72[i] with Shane Creado, MD and his book Peak Sleep Performance for Athletes recorded back in July of 2020. In PART 1[ii], we covered: How strategic napping, morning brain habits, and even the Silva Method all work together to reset your brain, boost performance, and transform your health from the inside out. Today, PART 2 we will continue with our review, diving a bit deeper into sleep deprivation and its impact of performance (whether you are an athlete, or just someone looking to improve productivity). PART 3, next week, we will go a bit deeper into the impacts of concussions and brain injuries on our sleep and performance. Just a reminder: Dr. Creado is a double board-certified sleep medicine doctor and psychiatrist who practices functional sleep medicine, integrative psychiatry, and sports psychiatry. He brings all of these specialties together to uncover the underlying factors that sabotage our sleep and then treats them comprehensively, helping people to achieve their health and performance goals with sleep at the forefront As we work through our reviews, we will spend a considerable amount of time on this important health staple that's scientifically proven to boost our physical and mental health. For today's EP 379, and PART 2 of our review of our 2020 interview with Dr. Shane Creado, we will cover: ✔ Sleep as a core pillar of health according to Dr. Shane Creado, author of Peak Sleep Performance for Athletes. ✔ Sleep deprivation is a national crisis and kid's pay the highest price. ✔ 7 Well-Known Tips for Improving Sleep ✔ Applying the Silva Method to Reset and Improve Our Sleep ✔ Important sleep tips for athletes and high performers Let's go back to 2020 and revisit what Dr. Creado had to say about sleep. CLIP 1 — Why Sleep Is Non-Negotiable for Brain Health Short Explanation: In Clip 1, Dr. Shane Creado explains that sleep is a foundational pillar of brain health, equal in importance to exercise and nutrition. He emphasizes that without optimizing sleep, it is impossible to truly optimize learning, emotional regulation, focus, or performance. Dr. Creado highlights that chronic sleep deprivation is widespread in the U.S., often unnoticed, and especially damaging for children—where lack of deep sleep suppresses growth hormone, increases obesity risk, and raises the likelihood of developing mental-health challenges later in life. His message is clear: when sleep improves, the entire “fabric” of life and health begins to change. VIDEO 1 – Click Here to Watch In our next video clip from Dr. Creado, I ask him to dive deeper into optimizing our brain health with a quote from his book that reads “your brain health and sports performance cannot be optimized unless your sleep is optimized. And once this is achieved your quality of life will skyrocket. When you sleep well, the fabric of your life will change. And when this happens, it will have a ripple effect.” This sounds like a simple concept, but for those of us who have been working on improving this pillar, we know it's one of those concepts that easier said, than done. Let's hear Dr. Creado's thoughts on my question- And Dr. Creado replied that “sleep is one of the pillars of brain health along with exercise and nutrition. And we need to make sure we're getting the right amount of sleep. Most adults and most teenagers don't know about this but a vast majority, 70 million Americans suffer from a sleep problem. And way more than those suffer from sleep deprivation, chronic sleep deprivation. If a child is deprived of sleep, their growth hormone levels will be suppressed because deep sleep is where growth hormone levels peak, so basically you are going to be stunting your growth. Over 80% of kids who are sleep deprived go on to develop obesity. There's a huge overlap between kids who are chronically sleep deprived who manifest mental health conditions later in life.”

HEADLINE: Lenin's Violent Innovation: Vanguardism and Revolutionary Defeatism GUEST AUTHOR: Professor Sean McMeekin 50-WORD SUMMARY: Vladimir Lenin, inspired by Marx's violence, adopted vanguardism (professional revolutionaries guiding workers). His innovation was "revolutionary defeatism," arguing imperialist war should be turned into civil war. Lenin advocated a global series of civil wars to usher in the proletarian revolution. Anarchists like Bakunin were prophetic, fearing the resulting state tyranny.

“My biggest thing has been remembering that I'm not Dathan, I'm not Kelsey, but that's why I was hired. The three of us all have very different experiences, we bring different things to the table, and we're just hoping to give the athletes this well-roundedness in support and resources... That's the really cool part about what OAC is doing. We're trying to help this next wave of incredible athletes maximize what they're capable of and it's okay that we all do that differently.”My guest for today's episode is Laura Thweatt, the former professional marathoner who has now stepped into an assistant coach role and is helping oversee the roads team with the On Athletics Club. For 13 years, Laura was a steady coaching presence for high school runners in Boulde and now she's made the jump to guide the likes of 2025 New York City Marathon champion Hellen Obiri and has also helped Joe Klecker navigate the transition from the track to 26.2.Laura is someone who understands the emotional and psychological side of performance. The OAC has seen quite a bit of success in its first five years as a team and as the sport is in one of the most competitive eras ever. Laura is now the connective tissue between the original core of the team and the next generation stepping onto the roads. She talks about how she's built that trust with the athletes, fostered the culture, and developed her own coaching philosophy and style.____________Host: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavez on InstagramGuest: Laura Thweatt | @lthweatt on Instagram Produced by: Jasmine Fehr | @jasminefehr on Instagram____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSNOMIO: Made with 80% broccoli sprout juice, 15% lemon juice, and 5% sugar, Nomio activates your body's natural defense systems to reduce lactate, speed recovery, and enhance muscle adaptation.
