Before your company invests in a new website, touchscreen, application or digital experience, there is one deceptively simple question to answer: Does everyone agree on what you are actually building? In this episode of 10 Minute Tech Talks, Josh Lowery and Greg Cunneyworth of Makeway introduce what we jokingly call "digital transformation therapy." Their new Workshop as a Service offering gets stakeholders into the room, uncovers hidden assumptions and turns a complicated idea into a clear plan of action. It is not another meeting about having more meetings. This is about solving the right problem before an expensive project starts rolling in the wrong direction. Hit Play to learn how: Clarity might not sound as flashy as a new website, immersive touchscreen or digital platform, but it may be the most valuable deliverable of the entire project. Makeway's workshops are designed to align stakeholders, test assumptions and give teams a practical playbook for moving forward. A few focused hours at the beginning could prevent weeks, months and plenty of headaches later.

If you've ever wondered why tumors can shrink but cancer still comes back years later, or why inflammation, gut health, and detoxification matter more than most people realize, this episode will shift how you think about cancer at its root. In this conversation, I explore groundbreaking research on breast cancer stem cells, metastasis, and how specific plant extracts can selectively target cancer cells while leaving healthy cells untouched. We talk about why conventional treatments often miss the most aggressive cells, and how supporting the body's biology may play a role in reducing recurrence. We also connect the dots between chronic stress, inflammation, environmental toxins, gut health, and immune resilience—factors that are especially important for women navigating perimenopause, menopause, fatigue, brain fog, digestive issues, and hormone imbalance. What You'll Hear in This Episode • Why breast cancer stem cells are believed to drive metastasis and recurrence • How certain plant extracts can distinguish cancer cells from healthy cells • The role of inflammation, detoxification, and environmental stress in cancer progression • Why an integrated approach matters—even alongside conventional treatment This episode is about understanding the what and the why behind cancer—not fear, not hype, and not false promises. It's about knowledge, empowerment, and looking deeper than symptoms alone. If you're interested in prevention, long-term resilience, or understanding how gut health, inflammation, and the immune system influence cancer risk, this conversation is one you won't want to miss.
