How do you actually stop fawning, and what does healing look like in real life? In Part 2 of our convo with Dr. Ingrid Clayton, we dove into boundaries, agency, and what it really takes to step out of survival mode. Ingrid shared her go-to body-based tools—like orienting with the senses, making nature your therapist, building a “pillow palace” like Sarah's, and giving yourself full permission to take up space. Expect honest stories about parenting and relationships as radical acts of autonomy, plus some real-talk on microdosing mushrooms, nervous system hacks, and learning to say what you actually feel. If you've ever felt lost in people-pleasing or longed to reclaim your voice, this episode offers wisdom, compassion, and bite-sized practices to help you trust yourself and move toward genuine self-acceptance.Pick up Ingrid's book, Fawning: Why the Need to Please Makes Us Lose Ourselves--and How to Find Our Way Back.

This week, Monika breaks down the sweeping changes in the National Pension System (NPS) that came into effect from October 1, 2025, and what they mean for investors planning their retirement. The revamped NPS now offers a more flexible and competitive alternative to mutual funds and insurance plans. Monika explains how, for years, the NPS remained a rigid, low-cost product built for simplicity — but one that often left investors frustrated with limited fund choices, compulsory annuity rules, and clunky access. The latest reforms mark a turning point, aiming to make NPS more adaptable and investor-friendly.Monika highlights the key updates that have transformed the product: investors can now allocate up to 100% in equities, choose multiple schemes within each asset class, and benefit from new fund options tailored to different risk profiles. With a modest increase in fund management costs and upcoming plans to relax the 40% annuity lock, the NPS may soon evolve into a strong, low-cost retirement vehicle. However, Monika cautions that while the direction of reform is promising, existing investors should evaluate the changes carefully and new investors might do well to wait until the new schemes show a track record.In listener questions, Sonal from Mumbai seeks advice on investing her retirement corpus to generate regular income, Mainak writes about evaluating his bank's “free” wealth management services and the hidden risks involved, and Aniket from Bengaluru asks how best to invest a small amount received as a gift for his newborn's future.Chapters:(00:00 – 00:00) The New NPS: What's Changed and Why It Matters(00:00 – 00:00) Should You Switch or Stay: Understanding the New Options(00:00 – 00:00) Investing Your Retirement Benefits Wisely(00:00 – 00:00) The Hidden Cost of “Free” Wealth Management(00:00 – 00:00) Building a Baby Fund the Smart WayIf you have financial questions that you'd like answers for, please email us at mailme@monikahalan.com Monika's book on basic money managementhttps://www.monikahalan.com/lets-talk-money-english/Monika's book on mutual fundshttps://www.monikahalan.com/lets-talk-mutual-funds/Monika's workbook on recording your financial lifehttps://www.monikahalan.com/lets-talk-legacy/Calculatorshttps://investor.sebi.gov.in/calculators/index.htmlYou can find Monika on her social media @monikahalan.

In this personal episode, Esther opens her heart about what it meant to grow up as “the strong one” — the child who was expected to understand, to hold it together, and to need less. She shares how this pattern followed her into adulthood, helping her survive her divorce and raise her two sons, but later limiting her in relationships where she longed for emotional balance and softness.Esther reflects on how strength can become both a shield and a prison — and how real healing begins when we allow ourselves to be fragile, to receive care, and to be loved for who we are, not for how much we can handle.At the end of the episode, Esther offers listeners the opportunity to connect with her for one-on-one coaching — a gentle and empowering space to release old patterns and step into a freer, more authentic version of yourself.

Imagine a world where you were no longer expected to compete. That's the world today's guest, Ruchika T. Malhotra, invites us to imagine—and to start building.You may remember Ruchika from her last appearance on So Money, when she turned our understanding of imposter syndrome upside down, revealing it not as a personal flaw, but as a systemic one. Her new book, UNCOMPETE: Rejecting Competition to Unlock Success, does something equally radical: it questions the very belief that competition is healthy—or even necessary—for success.Ruchika argues that our obsession with rivalry and scarcity thinking has made us anxious, exhausted, and disconnected. She calls for a new framework built on collaboration, abundance, radical generosity, inclusion, and solidarity—principles that might sound soft, until you realize how much they fuel innovation, well-being, and long-term wealth.

The Hidden Cost of Being Fake and How to Stop October 29, 2025 | Episode 5213 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Ever feel like you're not being yourself? Like you're putting on a show for everyone around you? Scott gets it. He gets in trouble for being himself all the time. But here's the thing—being fake costs you way more than being real ever will. In this episode, Scott breaks down the hidden price you pay when you're not authentic. He introduces motivational awareness—understanding what actually fires you up instead of forcing yourself to do things that drain you. You'll discover why everything in your life comes down to just two things: people and money. And Scott shares his daily awareness filter that helps you catch yourself before you veer off course. Stop pretending. Start paying attention. Here's how. Featured Story You know when you say you're going to do something and then... you don't? Scott does this all the time. He'll get an idea, tell everyone about it, then just sits on his butt. Doesn't start. Doesn't move forward. For years, he thought something was wrong with him. Then he figured it out. He won't start anything unless he's actually motivated to do it. If he's not moving toward what he said he wanted, that tells him something. Either he doesn't really want to do it, or something about the process feels wrong. Now it's a rule. If the idea doesn't fire him up enough to get him moving, he scratches it. Simple as that. The problem? He sometimes opens his mouth and tells people first. Then they ask, "Why didn't you do it?" Because I didn't want to. Motivational awareness. Important Points Why forcing yourself to do things you're not motivated to do keeps you stuck in a cycle of starting and stopping. The reality that everything in your life—good and bad—comes from just two sources: people and money. Including you. How building a daily awareness filter catches those moments when you're being fake before they derail your entire week. Why saying yes to things you're not fired up about is the fastest way to lose touch with who you actually are. Memorable Quotes "I get in so much trouble for being myself. I really freaking do." "If I can't get myself moving, it's just not firing me up." "Everything, good, everything bad, everything comes from people and money." "Nobody else is responsible for your health. You are." Scott's Three-Step Approach 1. Build motivational awareness by noticing what drives you. Pay attention to what fires you up naturally. If you're not moving toward something you said you wanted, that's data. You either don't really want it or something about the process is wrong. Stop forcing it. 2. Accept that people and money control everything in your life. Every opportunity, every obstacle, every win, every loss—it all comes from people (including you) and money (including yours). When you're stuck or unhappy, look at these two things first. 3. Activate your daily awareness filter to catch yourself being fake. Ask yourself the same questions every day. Track what you're actually doing versus what you said you'd do. Notice the gaps. That's where the truth lives about who you really are.

Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success
High performance can look powerful but quietly cost you peace. In this episode, Julie Holly reveals the emotional and relational toll of over-performance—and how recalibration helps you produce from peace, not pressure.What happens when the traits that built your success start to break your peace?In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly exposes the quiet emotional and relational toll of high performance—how the same drive that built your reputation can slowly erode your rest, relationships, and sense of self.High-capacity humans often wonder why they can't stop striving even when the work is done. It's not weakness; it's wiring. Through the lens of Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR)—the psychology-backed, faith-rooted pathway that restores alignment at the root—Julie unpacks how the nervous system learns to equate safety with output.Listeners will see themselves in the loop of Produce → Prove → Protect → Repeat, a cycle that turns excellence into exhaustion. You'll learn how to break free from performance-based safety, why the body forgets how to receive, and how rest can become trust instead of threat.Drawing from psychological insight, lived experience, and faith-informed wisdom, Julie helps you recognize the moment overperformance shifts from protection to depletion—and how recalibration makes excellence sustainable again. Because you don't have to lose what you've built to regain your peace. You just have to learn to rest inside your strength.The Recalibration isn't therapy or mindset work—it's the smallest internal shift that changes everything. It's not about doing less—it's about doing what's yours, from who you truly are.Today's Micro Recalibration:“Where am I still producing from pressure instead of peace?” Pause and notice what rises when you ask that question. Awareness begins where striving ends.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Timestamps:05:45 - From Scientist to Startup CEO16:23 - Winning the Industries Trust With Data28:33 - The Hidden Cost of Scaling Too Fast47:31 - The Hard Truth About Going PublicEpisode Summary:Jurgi Camblong is the Co-Founder and CEO of SOPHiA GENETICS, a Swiss company using data-driven medicine to empower healthcare professionals worldwide. With a PhD in Molecular Biology from the Université de Genève, Jurgi transformed his deep scientific background into one of Switzerland's few NASDAQ-listed success stories. SOPHiA GENETICS harnesses AI and advanced bioinformatics to make genomic and multimodal data accessible and actionable for hospitals all around the world.In this episode, Jurgi shares how he founded SOPHiA GENETICS before AI became a buzzword, why timing and trust were everything when introducing cloud-based genomics to hospitals, and how a consumption-based business model helped the company stay customer-obsessed from day one. He also reflects on what it takes to educate a conservative industry, the importance of demonstrating value through accuracy, and why being early sometimes means having to build both the market and the product at once.On a more personal level, Jurgi opens up about the challenges of scaling culture beyond 100 people, what he learned from taking SOPHiA GENETICS public on NASDAQ, and the emotional toll of entrepreneurship at that level. He talks about near-failures, resilience through crises, and why—after everything—he might never again build a company with more than 100 employees.The cover portrait was edited by Smartportrait.

What if the thing you've been calling “people-pleasing” is actually your nervous system doing a full-blown survival routine? In this episode, we welcomed Dr. Ingrid Clayton, clinical psychologist, trauma therapist, and author of Fawning: Why the Need to Please Makes Us Lose Ourselves--and How to Find Our Way Back. Part memoir, part emotional mic-drop, Ingrid's work reframes “fawning” as a deeply human, body-based response—not a character flaw—and helps us see how our most selfless instincts can actually mask self-abandonment. We unpacked the messy truth about over-apologizing, over-functioning, and why some of us can't bring ourselves to hit “unsubscribe.” From survival to healing to what it really means to reclaim your autonomy, Ingrid's insights hit right in the gut (and somehow also feel like a hug). Welcome to Fawn Star Academy! Class is in session.Be sure to pick up Ingrid's book, Fawning: Why the Need to Please Makes Us Lose Ourselves--and How to Find Our Way Back.

Your generosity is highly valuable to others so let's look at the energetics of how you keep some of that value for yourself.Jess Fenton dives deep into the true value of generosity and why being an open-hearted, giving person is far more powerful than we often realise. She explores how our natural inclination to give can sometimes be undervalued—until we experience moments when that generosity isn't reciprocated.Jess shares her reflections on hindsight as a tool for perspective and manifestation, illustrating with real-life examples how seeing opportunities differently can completely transform our lives. She highlights the story of a shoe designer who turned an unexpected setback into a career opportunity, showing how imagination and perspective can create abundance even in challenging times.Central to the episode is the concept of generosity to oneself. Jess explains why paying yourself first—financially, emotionally, and energetically—is crucial for your present and future wellbeing. She offers guidance on:Why generosity has extraordinary value and how discernment plays a role.How to cultivate generosity toward your future self, creating long-term security, comfort, and joy.Practical tips for “paying yourself first” to ensure your resources grow, instead of being solely spent on others.A unique perspective on manifestation across your personal timeline—turning generosity toward yourself into a powerful act of future manifestation.By the end of the episode, you'll have a fresh perspective on generosity, self-care, and manifestation, learning how to nurture the capital of your generosity for yourself while still creating overflow to share with the world.Takeaway: Protect the source of your generosity by giving to yourself first. Your future self—and your current self—will thank you.Connect with Jess Fenton:www.goinward.co.ukwww.instagram.com/goinward

In Ghana, gold is more than just a precious metal. From environmental destruction due to galamseys (illegal mines), to alleged funding of extremist violence through proceeds made from illegal mining, the country faces a complex crisis.

In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron dive deep into a rich theological discussion on globalization, nationalism, and the Christian's calling in a hyper-connected yet fractured world. Through the lens of American farm policy, overproduction, and the global soybean market, they explore how shifting trade dynamics, political realignments, and cultural homogenization reveal both the power and fragility of modern systems. Drawing on biblical wisdom and thinkers like Wendell Berry and Marshall McLuhan, Nathan and Cameron challenge Christians to discern where their true responsibilities lie—between interest, concern, and focus—and to reclaim a distinctly Christian vision of diversity, culture, and stewardship amid global uncertainty.

This episode is part of a new series, Jung in the World B-Sides, where we go off-road to explore the rugged psychological terrain of our current culture. This episode is part 2 of our interview with Hilde Lynn Helphenstein. Part 1 "Know thyself"—from Socrates to Shakespeare, this wisdom echoed across centuries.

What does it mean to live your life as someone else? In this two-part interview, host Patricia Martin talks with the infamous Jerry Gogosian—real name Hilde Helphenstein—about the hidden psychological costs of her seven-year experiment living as her persona and how she clawed her identity back.

In today's AI-powered workplace, voice clarity isn't optional—it's business critical.In this session, Rob Scott speaks with Tim Banting (Today Digital) and Doug Jones (AT&T) to uncover the hidden cost of bad calls. While enterprises race to deploy tools like Copilot, chatbots, and AI meeting assistants, a silent killer is eroding ROI: poor voice quality.- Why AI depends on crystal-clear voice as its “data fuel”- How poor audio leads to hallucinations, compliance risks & lost deals- AT&T's approach to prioritizing voice across global networks- Why CIOs must treat voice as a strategic asset, not a legacy concern

In this episode, I and Lorna tackle a struggle that every ambitious rider knows too well - trying too hard. We pour our hearts, time, and energy into riding, believing that working harder must lead to better results. But what happens when pushing more, training more, and wanting it more actually holds you back? Together, we explore why over-effort often blocks progress, both for you and your horse; and how to find the balance between determination and trust. This conversation is an honest, relatable deep dive into the mental side of “more isn't always better.” Key Takeaways: Trying harder isn't always trying smarter. Sometimes the best way forward is to pause, reflect, and reset. Effort has a limit. Beyond a certain point, extra pressure creates tension, not progress. Trust the process. Growth doesn't follow a straight line, your timing and your horse's timing matter. Rest is part of performance. Breaks allow both your mind and your horse's body to absorb learning. Your mindset determines your muscle memory. Give your subconscious time to do its job. Memorable Quotes: “When you want something so badly, you start to overconsume your own progress.” - Lorna “It's not about doing more, it's about doing deeper.” - Jocelin “Rest. Don't quit.” - Lorna “We'll get there, on our own timeline.” - Jocelin Resources Mentioned:
What if the most powerful thing you could do for your staging business isn't adding more but strategically saying no? Today's episode is really a reflection and honestly, a celebration as we're winding down this year. I've had some amazing conversations with the CEOs inside our Accelerate and private coaching, and they are experiencing wins that I have to tell you about. These are wins that I consider non-traditional. But rather, they are the more valuable, more powerful ones from what I'm calling “the clean no”. The phase where you assess an area with a problem you are no longer willing to tolerate; either from yourself as the staging business owner, your clients, or your team, so you make a different decision and actually implement that decision to see the results. So, I'm sharing the beautiful results that our staging CEOs got to see from choosing to do something differently, gaining more breathing room, respect and desired growth. If you've ever thought, "I can't say no or they'll hire someone else," or "I just need to go a little above and beyond to prove that we're worth it," then this episode is going to challenge how you think about service, standards, and success. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN FROM THIS EPISODE: What a "clean no" is and why it builds more value than over-delivery Why over-delivery is often drama, not value and what it's really masking The real cost of over-delivery (financially and emotionally) and how it impacts your team Two powerful lists to help you identify where you're over-delivering and what a clean no could give you back RESOURCES: Apply for Private Coaching: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/privatecoachingapp Enroll in Staging Business School Accelerate Track: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/accelerate Join the Staging Business School Growth Track Waitlist: www.rethinkhomeinteriors.com/growth Follow the Staging Business School on Instagram: www.instagram.com/stagingbusinessschool Follow Lori on Instagram: www.instagram.com/rethinkhome If you want to learn how to streamline your operations so you can grow with less stress and burnout in your staging business, enrollment is open for Staging Business School Accelerate Track.

Okayyyy I went there today.Welcome to my first ever Friday Episode!Moving forward, Wednesday Episodes will be more business strategy and Friday will be identity activation and personal growth - especially in becoming the woman God called you to be.If you've been feeling like you're showing up online but wondering if it even matters... like you're posting and posting but still kinda battling that “what am I even building?” feeling... this one's for you.This episode is not some perfectly packaged TED Talk, it's me telling the truth about building a business that actually lasts and how God has used visibility not to stroke my ego, but to shape my character.I'm talking about:what really shifted in me 2 years & 2 months ago when someone left my life publicly without a word (and I've never told that full story on air… until now)how I've been learning that sometimes God removes what you thought you needed to reveal what you're really made ofwhy I no longer need the loudest voice in the room. I want the most grounded oneand how we confuse content with calling and what to do about itI also talked about how our kids aren't listening to what we say, they're watching who we are. That reel hit different today and it fit perfectly.This one's honest, emotional, and might make you feel a little exposed in the best way.But if you're building something with real impact, this is your reminder that legacy often looks quiet… until the harvest comes.And yes, WealthGen is still open this week, but this isn't a pitch. This episode is a mirror. For the woman who knows she's called to more, and is finally ready to stop performing and start becoming.Why building for legacy doesn't actually require applauseWhat happened the day God removed someone I never thought I'd loseThe real reason we get addicted to being seenWhy visibility isn't the goal, but alignment isHow to use attention without needing validationAnd how to walk in obedience when it costs you approvalAnd if you know WealthGen is your next step?DM me “WEALTH” on instagram (@randacarrabba) to get in before the doors close.Or watch the masterclass replay here: www.randacarrabba.com/wealthgen-masterclass/
This isn't a conversation you hear every day. In fact, most people will never talk about it out loud. But money—whether you have too much or not enough—always brings feelings with it: guilt, pressure, shame, confusion. In this powerful episode, I sit down with Chase Collins, a fifth-generation trust fund inheritor and the founder of Trust Your Trust Fund. Chase opens up about the real emotional cost of inherited wealth: the guilt of receiving money you didn't earn, the isolation of being treated like a walking dollar sign, and the identity crises that come with trying to define your worth outside your bank account. You'll hear: What it feels like to inherit money… and still feel completely lost. How Chase's family history—spanning Texaco, massive real estate losses, and generational silence—shaped his financial beliefs. The most common emotional and behavioral mistakes trust fund inheritors make. How to create your own financial identity when you've been labeled “the heir” or “the trust fund baby.” Why inherited guilt can quietly sabotage your ability to live a meaningful life—and how to move through it. The difference between giving out of guilt… and giving from alignment. Whether you've inherited wealth, expect to one day, or are simply curious about the hidden dynamics of money and family legacy, this episode will challenge what you think you know about “having it all.” Be sure to like and follow the show on your favorite podcast app!

You've probably heard of cancer survivors, but have you heard of previvors? These are women with genetic mutations like BRCA1, BRCA2, or CHECK2 who are at higher risk for cancer but don't have it yet. October is both Breast Cancer Awareness Month and Menopause Awareness Month, making it the perfect time to discuss genetic testing, cancer risk assessment, and what previvors need to know about their options.Using a 28-year-old patient with CHECK2 mutation as an example, I walk through when genetic testing makes sense, how to calculate your lifetime risk, and what screening protocols change when your risk is elevated. I cover modifiable lifestyle factors that account for 30% of breast cancer cases, including alcohol intake, diet, exercise, and optimal body weight. The key message: genetic testing is about empowerment and prevention, not fear.I also address surgical menopause after risk-reducing procedures. When you remove ovaries in your 30s or 40s to prevent cancer, you fall off a hormonal cliff with immediate consequences. The critical issue: estrogen therapy is NOT contraindicated for previvors without personal cancer history, yet surgical patients are rarely given a menopause plan before going under anesthesia. Early estrogen loss increases cardiovascular disease, dementia, osteoporosis, and all-cause mortality risks.Highlights:What CHECK2, BRCA1/2, and other mutations mean for lifetime cancer risk.How removing ovaries before age 45 without HRT increases all-cause mortality risk.Why previvors without cancer CAN and SHOULD take estrogen after preventative surgery.Why you should demand a menopause plan BEFORE risk-reducing surgery, not after.If this episode empowered you to have conversations about family history and genetic testing, or helped you understand why hormone replacement matters after preventative surgery, please share it with women who need this information.

Your refusal to evolve your visual identity might be the silent career killer you never considered. When your wardrobe stays frozen in time while your industry, career, and the very nature of business transform around you, you're not being "classic". You're falling behind. And contrary to what you might think, being invisible is not neutral.Style stagnation creates an insidious loop where your external appearance begins limiting your internal possibilities. You start questioning yourself, speaking up less, and second-guessing ideas that could change your trajectory. Meanwhile, in a world where first impressions form in seconds (especially on video calls), your credibility is constantly being evaluated. When your visual identity suggests you're not keeping up, people naturally wonder what else you might be behind on.Leaders who will thrive understand that evolution isn't optional. It's essential! Your style and visual identity aren't superficial details; they're strategic tools that either accelerate your impact or limit it. Ready to stop watching opportunities pass you by?

Renee Troughton: The Hidden Cost of Constant Restructuring in Agile Organizations Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. "Trust and safety are the most fundamental foundations of a team to perform. And so you are just breaking the core of teams when you're doing this." Renee challenges us to look beyond team dysfunction and examine the "dirty little secrets" in organizations—leadership-driven anti-patterns that destroy team performance. She reveals a cyclical pattern of constant restructuring that occurs every six months in many organizations, driven by leaders who avoid difficult performance management conversations and instead force people through redundancy rounds. This creates a cascade of fear, panic, and victim mindset throughout the organization. Beyond restructuring, Renee identifies other destructive patterns including the C-suite shuffle (where new CEOs bring in their own teams, cascading change throughout the organization) and the insourcing/outsourcing swings that create chaos over 5-8 year cycles. These high-level decisions drain productivity for months as teams storm and reform, losing critical knowledge and breaking the trust and safety that are fundamental for high performance. Renee emphasizes that as Agile coaches and Scrum Masters, we often don't feel empowered to challenge these decisions, yet they represent the biggest drain on organizational productivity. Self-reflection Question: Have you identified the cyclical organizational anti-patterns in your workplace, and do you have the courage to raise these systemic issues with senior leadership? Featured Book of the Week: Loving What Is by Byron Katie "It teaches you around how to reframe your thoughts in the day-to-day life, to assess them in a different light than you would normally perceive them to be." Renee recommends "Loving What Is" by Byron Katie as an essential tool for Scrum Master introspection. This book teaches practical techniques for reframing thoughts and recognizing that problems we perceive "out there" are often internal framing issues. Katie's method, called "The Work," provides a worksheet-based approach to introspection that helps identify when our perceptions create unnecessary suffering. Renee also highlights Marshall Rosenberg's "Nonviolent Communication" as a companion book, which uses language to tap into underlying emotions and needs. Both books offer practical, actionable techniques for self-knowledge—a critical skill for anyone in the Scrum Master role. The journey these books provide leads to inner peace through understanding that many challenges stem from how we internally frame situations rather than external reality. We have many episodes on NVC, Nonviolent Communication, which you can dive into and learn from experienced practitioners. [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]
This episode is part of a new series, Jung in the World B-Sides, where we go off-road to explore the rugged psychological terrain of our current culture. "Know thyself"—from Socrates to Shakespeare, this wisdom echoed across centuries. But the digital age is turning it inside out. As online influencers rise to fame, persona is overtaking the self. The obsession with self-representation has eclipsed the drive to be true to oneself. What does it mean to live your life as someone else? In this two-part interview, host Patricia Martin talks with the infamous Jerry Gogosian—real name Hilde Helphenstein—about the hidden psychological costs of her seven-year experiment living as her persona and how she clawed her identity back. Watch the video of this interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqN8oLeQQaQ Hilde Lynn Helphenstein is a visual artist, digital storyteller, and the creative mind behind @jerrygogosian, a popular satirical Instagram meme account that critiques and comments on the global art world through viral images, videos and text pieces.

What if the biggest sustainability challenge in tech isn't hardware or cloud emissions, but the invisible mountain of unused data sitting in storage? That's the question driving my conversation with Piero Gallucci, Vice President and General Manager for NetApp UK and Ireland, as we discuss how single-use data is quietly shaping the environmental and financial footprint of enterprise IT. Piero explains that 38 percent of stored data is never used again, yet it continues to consume energy and resources indefinitely. He describes how this digital hoarding—often driven by regulatory caution and the overvaluation of data—has become one of the most overlooked contributors to emissions in modern infrastructure. With the rise of AI accelerating data growth by an estimated 50 percent, the challenge is no longer simply about capacity but responsibility. Through examples such as Aston Martin Formula One and the NFL, Piero outlines how NetApp is helping organizations identify unused data, automate lifecycle policies, and design intelligent, energy-efficient infrastructure that supports both innovation and sustainability. We also explore the tension between AI adoption and environmental impact. As enterprises rush to train new models, Piero argues that smarter data governance, not bigger datasets, is the key to sustainable AI. He highlights the importance of educating teams on the true cost of data—both financial and environmental—and why leaders must build intentional strategies that align performance with purpose. NetApp's vision is clear: make data management as sustainable as it is powerful. But as AI reshapes how we store and use information, can the tech industry finally balance digital growth with environmental stewardship? And what would your company look like if every byte of data had to justify its existence? Share your thoughts after the episode.
Former President Trump concludes a historic address at the Knesset as 2,000 Hamas terrorists are released in exchange for 20 hostages — a deal hailed as groundbreaking, yet fraught with peril. This episode breaks down the strategic and human cost of the swap, the risks of replenishing Hamas' leadership, and the geopolitical implications for Israel, the Middle East, and potentially the U.S. and Canada. We explore why this deal might be a tactical win for Hamas, why mainstream media praises it, and why the long-term consequences could be catastrophic.
Host Beau Wigington chats with Bill Pharmer (National Senior Director of Advanced Fabrication, Airgas) and Bryan Thomas (National Director of Package Gas Services, Airgas) at FABTECH about unlocking the hidden cost of welding. You'll hear how to spot leaks in your workflow including spatter, over-welding, wrong gas selection, slow change-outs, and how small fixes compound into cleaner welds, faster throughput, and healthier margins.Key Topics Covered:Why labor dominates cost per weld foot (≈85–90%) and how to focus on the variables that actually move profit.Baseline first: measure wire-feed speed, amperage/voltage, travel speed, gas flow, gas type, burn time, and consumable usage.Operator Factor (arc-on time ÷ total time) as the north-star KPI for rework and throughput.Common profit leaks: loose electrical connections and resistance, poor gas-to-wire ratios, excessive gas flow (“blasting”), and “75/25 for everything.”Over-welding math that hurts: a weld spec'd at 3/16" laid at 5/16" is ~78% more labor, wire, and gas, for zero added value.KPIs that tell on your process: wire-to-contact-tip ratio, gas-to-wire ratio, melt-off rates, and contact-tip consumption patterns.ARCAL® in five mixes (Prime, Flux, Speed, Force, Chrome): when to choose each to improve cleanliness, penetration, and speed without helium guesswork.Change-out efficiency: how Viper (valve-integrated pressure regulator) and quick-connects cut 10–15 minute bottle swaps, protect calibration, and maintain consistent flow to low pressure.Tracking improvement: digital welding efficiency analysis when available; simple manual logs and calculations when it's not.Change management that sticks: coach, show results, and iterate—don't just “turn the knobs and leave.”Memorable Quotes:“Spatter is rework and that does nothing but eat up the labor piece.”“Labor is at least 85% of your cost per weld foot; gas and wire are the small slice.”“If it's over-welded by 1/16", you've over-welded it by ~78% too much labor, too much wire, too much gas.”“The first thing everyone blames is “bad gas ".

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, takes an honest look at something few talk about out loud: missing the chaos (Amazon Affiliate). After years of answering high-stakes calls, many first responders find that calm feels strange—or even unsafe. When your nervous system has been wired to thrive in crisis, silence can be unsettling. We break down why this happens, how it affects life at home, and what you can do to regulate your nervous system so peace doesn't feel like a threat. 1. Why Chaos Feels Normal After Years in the Field The brain learns to crave adrenaline surges from constant exposure to stress. High-alert environments make “calm” feel foreign and even suspicious. 2. The Emotional Whiplash of Returning Home How the sudden drop from adrenaline leaves you restless or irritable. Why family time can feel empty or flat after a chaotic shift. 3. The Hidden Cost of Craving Crisis Always seeking stimulation can damage relationships and lead to burnout. When calm moments feel uncomfortable, it robs you of joy outside the job. 4. Signs Your Nervous System Is Stuck in Overdrive Trouble relaxing or sleeping. Constant multitasking, fidgeting, or picking fights for stimulation. Feeling flat or emotionally numb during peaceful moments. 5. How to Rewire for Peace Without Losing Your Edge Using tactical breathing, grounding exercises, or mindfulness after a shift. Gradually reintroducing calm routines so they feel safe again. Building hobbies and activities that offer healthy stimulation. Talking openly with loved ones about what you're experiencing. Seeking professional support to reset your baseline over time.
In this short podcast, Bryan talks about the hidden cost of killing radiant load, especially when it comes to installing radiant barriers in attics. We sometimes get service calls about ducts sweating when they never used to sweat. If there are no problems with the system (i.e., the refrigerant charge, static pressure, airflow, supply air temperature, and blower speeds are all good), this type of situation can be a head-scratcher. Ask a customer if they've made any changes to the attic or equipment since the last service call, and there's a great chance they'll say something about adding a radiant barrier to keep the attic cooler. Ducts pick up heat from the surfaces in the attic. Radiant heat can come from the sun, but visible light isn't required for radiation to happen, and it can occur between objects. A radiant barrier prevents solar heat absorbed by the roof decking from radiating onto attic surfaces, but it doesn't change the dew point. When attic surfaces are cooler and the cool air passes through, the surface temperature drops below the dew point. Condensation happens on the surface; when moisture accumulates, it can lead to other problems, like the dirty M word. Moisture issues happen with low sensible load and high latent load, especially in times like hurricane season in Florida. Adding heat to a space also makes it drier because it acts as a reheat source and drops the relative humidity. It also adds to the sensible load, leading to longer runtimes (better for comfort but more expensive in terms of energy). When we remove that radiant heat, we increase the risk of condensation and short runtimes. If moisture problems are caused by a radiant barrier, then the barrier will need to come out or the attic will need to be encapsulated and dehumidified.
