Digital transformation has been a federal buzzword for years, but what's the first step in making it a reality? It all starts with knowing what's on your network and being able to monitor it before and during a transition.     This week on Feds At the Edge, our expert guests take a deep dive into the future of network monitoring and digital transformation.     Tom Gilmore, Enterprise Data Architect in the USMC, drops a staggering statistic: in just 2.5 years, over 15,000 applications were built and deployed across the Marine Corps—many of which are likely duplicates. This explosion of tools raises the question: how do we manage this sprawl effectively?     Joshua Stageberg, Vice President of Product at SolarWind, dives into the exponential growth of network monitoring tools, cautioning against "tool sprawl" and the siloed observability it creates. Instead, he advocates for a unified, single-pane view as the key to true modernization, offering not just insights into apps and data, but a roadmap for optimizing computing and operational efficiency.     Tune in on your favorite podcasting platform today for valuable lessons on collaborating with operations teams, addressing their pain points, and using observability to drive more effective and efficient digital transformation.

TCW Podcast Episode 226 - Ray Kassar   Ray Kassar rose from humble beginnings to become a talented, savvy, and personable executive. He began his career in the textile industry at Burlington Industries, where he eventually became president of its most profitable division. However, after the unexpected passing of Burlington's head, Kassar faced ageism and cronyism, which stifled his advancement. Despite climbing the corporate ladder again, he was passed over for a more tenured executive. Leaving Burlington, Kassar founded a company importing Egyptian cotton for the U.S., where he planned to work until retirement. However, Manny Gerard of Warner Communications recruited him to stabilize Atari after its recent acquisition. Kassar's leadership introduced a robust marketing strategy, reduced manufacturing defects, and turned Atari into a massive profit center. Though his rapid adaptation to the gaming industry sparked some resentment and controversy, Kassar's impact on Atari was undeniable. His story is one of nuance and twists, as Atari would not have achieved its success without his visionary leadership.   TCW 046 - Atari, Ray Kassar, and Warner: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/atari-ray-kassar-and-warner/ TCW 104 - A Holistic View of ET: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/a-holistic-view-of-et/ TCW 186 - Atari's Distribution Nightmare: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/atari-s-distribution-nightmare/ TCW 187  -  Atari's Sinking Ship: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/atari-s-sinking-ship/ Once Upon Atari - How I made history by killing an industry: (Affiliate link): https://amzn.to/4fUDNx6   New episodes are on the 1st and 15th of every month!   TCW Email: feedback@theycreateworlds.com  Twitter: @tcwpodcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theycreateworlds Alex's Video Game History Blog: http://videogamehistorian.wordpress.com Alex's book, published Dec 2019, is available at CRC Press and at major on-line retailers: http://bit.ly/TCWBOOK1     Intro Music: Josh Woodward - Airplane Mode -  Music - "Airplane Mode" by Josh Woodward.

As Thanksgiving week reminds us of the many blessings we enjoy, it's natural to reflect on gratitude. But does gratitude naturally lead to generosity? Leo Sabo joins us today to discuss three things your pastor wishes you knew about giving.Leo Sabo is the President of the Christian Stewardship Network (CSN), where he gets to share the incredible impact financial stewardship and generosity can have on the Church. 1. Giving Has Spiritual BenefitsYour pastor wants you to know that giving is deeply tied to your spiritual growth. It's not just about meeting church needs—it's about discipleship and trust in God. Learning to surrender your finances to God is a major step in your faith journey.A Holistic View of Stewardship: Generosity encompasses more than money. It includes your time, talents, and treasures. Your pastor hopes you'll see giving as a condition of the heart, not just a financial act.100% Belongs to God: Some believe tithing is the only portion of our money that matters to God, but your pastor wants you to see all your resources as belonging to Him. True stewardship involves inviting God to have authority over everything you own.An Act of Worship: Giving is not a "membership fee" for the church. It's an act of worship that overflows from a heart grateful to God.2. Stewardship Is DiscipleshipStewardship—responsibly managing your resources—is a key aspect of your faith. Many pastors offer financial management courses to help members learn biblical principles for saving, budgeting, avoiding debt, and investing.Why Stewardship Matters: Jesus frequently taught about money because how we handle it reveals the condition of our hearts. Faithful stewardship fosters generosity and aligns our financial decisions with God's will.Programs for Your Growth: Churches often provide financial programs to equip members for wise money management. Pastors want you to know these resources are offered out of love and desire to see you spiritually and financially flourish.3. Transparency and Accountability Are CrucialIn today's world, donors increasingly value financial transparency and accountability. Your pastor understands this and prioritizes using your gifts responsibly.Building Trust: Transparency reassures members that their generosity funds vital ministries like teaching, worship gatherings, and community outreach.The Church's Responsibility: Churches rely solely on donor support, and your pastor wants you to feel confident that your gifts are being used to advance God's kingdom in meaningful ways.Turning Gratitude Into ActionThis Thanksgiving, let your gratitude inspire generosity. Giving is more than a financial transaction—it's a spiritual act that draws us closer to God. By embracing these principles of stewardship, you can experience the joy and freedom that come from trusting God with your resources. May your giving reflect a heart of worship, and your stewardship bring glory to the One who owns it all.If you're inspired to grow in generosity or want to start a stewardship ministry in your church, the Christian Stewardship Network offers tools and guidance for launching and managing effective stewardship programs.

She was going to have to move but doesn't have to now. I was planning to give her $11,000 for a down payment, but she also has a $300/month car loan with 4 years left. Would it be better to use the $11,000 to pay off her car loan instead? Would that help improve her credit and give her extra cash to save for a home?I recently received a $25,000 gift and have put it into a savings account earning 4.5% interest. Should I take that $25,000 and put it back into my investment portfolio instead of leaving it in my savings account? I currently have three months' expenses saved as an emergency fund. What would be the better approach—keeping the $25,000 in the high-yield savings account or investing it?I'm 20 years old and have a $250,000 mortgage at 2.6% interest. I have $5,000 left each month—$4,000 goes to high-yield savings and $1,000 to retirement. Should I focus on paying down the mortgage quickly or continue investing the extra funds since market growth has been good?Resources Mentioned:Bankrate.comChristian Stewardship NetworkLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

Steven Webster has carved out a rather unique career path combining sports, technology, and coaching. Originally from the UK and now in California, Steven boasts an impressive martial arts background. His expertise extends beyond the dojo, having also served as an advisor to NASA, Nike, and the NFL. Also a Microsoft alumnus, he's made significant contributions to athletic coaching, leading British University sports teams to ten national championships. His multifaceted knowledge spans movement recognition, coaching intelligence, artificial intelligence, and athletic intelligence. Webster and host Pete Moore explore his early passion for computers sparked initially by his Dad (an electrical engineer) to eventually founding Asensi, a company specializing in movement recognition technology for fitness and healthcare. We uncover Steve's insights on enhancing consumer engagement, solving real-world problems through AI, and the future of interactive training technology. This is a deep-dive into the convergence of fitness, technology, and business innovation. Key themes discussed Asensi: Movement recognition company for various applications. AI coaching potential to scale being digitally demonstrated. Athletes training with consumers in real time. Solve frustration to validate business funding needs. Building on existing AI is an industry standard practice. Customer experience tests show high net promoter scores. Trade shows are arsenals for success strategies. A few key takeaways:  1. Holistic View of Digital Transformation: Webster emphasizes the importance of adopting a comprehensive approach to digital transformation in the HALO space. Drawing parallels with successful digital shifts in ecommerce and financial services, he underscores the necessity for both legacy and pioneer brands to integrate advanced technologies to stay competitive. 2. Martial Arts Influence: Webster shares how his background in martial arts strongly influences his approach to coaching and technology. Martial arts not only offer physical benefits but also emotional and behavioral improvements. This translates into his work with Asensi, where movement recognition technology enhances fitness and health applications. 3. Asensi's Technology Implementation: The episode focuses a lot on Asensi's movement recognition technology and its practical applications in fitness and health. Initially applied to indoor rowing, the tech has expanded to meet the demands of home workouts. Examples include using cameras for analyzing exercises to prevent injuries and using AI to interpret and improve physical activities. 4. AI and Coaching Synergy: Webster clarifies that Asensi's technology is designed to complement, not replace, human coaches. The AI serves as a "copilot," capturing user movements and providing real-time feedback based on expert coaching insights. This ensures the technology enhances the coaching experience rather than detracting from the human element. 5. Legacy Brands and Market Evolution: The discussion around how legacy fitness brands are leveraging digital technologies to enhance customer experiences is especially noteable.

But success during this time isn't about quick fixes or magical hacks. Instead, it's about doubling down on fundamental strategies and focusing on genuine connections with your audience. Key Questions to Guide Your Strategy Here are my two essential questions that every blogger should consider: Where do I have the most impact and connection with your audience? Where are you making money now? These questions are powerful in guiding your efforts and ensuring that you focus on what truly matters. Identifying Your Impact and Connection Points To determine where you have the most impact and connection with your audience, consider the following: Analyze Your Traffic Sources: Look at your analytics to see which platforms are driving the most traffic to your blog. Is it Pinterest, Google SEO, Instagram, or another platform? Engagement Metrics: Assess where your audience is most engaged. Which posts get the most comments, shares, and likes? Feedback and Interaction: Pay attention to where you receive the most feedback and interaction from your audience. This could be through blog comments, social media interactions, or email responses. Understanding Your Revenue Streams Next, identify where your revenue is currently coming from: Display Ads: Are display ads a significant source of income for you? If so, focus on driving more traffic to your blog. Affiliate Sales: If affiliate sales are a key revenue stream, consider creating more content that promotes your affiliate products. Product Sales: Whether you sell digital products, printables, or physical goods, ensure that your marketing efforts are aligned with promoting these items. Doubling Down on What Works I had a plant that thrived but eventually became overgrown and unmanageable. This metaphor illustrates the importance of cutting back on less effective strategies to nurture what is truly working. Here's how you can apply this principle: Focus on High-Impact Platforms Pinterest: If Pinterest is a major traffic driver for you, invest time in creating eye-catching pins and optimizing your boards. Google SEO: Ensure your blog posts are optimized for search engines. This includes using relevant keywords, optimizing meta descriptions, and building backlinks. Instagram: If Instagram is where you connect most with your audience, focus on creating engaging stories, reels, and posts that resonate with your followers. Create High-Quality Content In a world filled with AI-generated content and fleeting trends, I emphasize the value of genuine human connection. Focus on creating fewer, high-quality pieces of content that provide real value to your audience. This approach not only fosters deeper connections but also aligns with what search engines like Google are looking for. Addressing Audience Pain Points Get laser-focused on the specific pain points of your audience. Here's how you can do this: Conduct Audience Research Surveys and Polls: Use surveys and polls to gather insights into the challenges and needs of your audience. Social Media Listening: Pay attention to the conversations happening on social media. What are people talking about? What problems are they facing? Feedback Analysis: Review the feedback you've received from your audience. What common themes or issues emerge? Create Solutions Once you understand your audience's pain points, create content and products that address these issues. For example, I share a story about a gluten-free baker who connected deeply with her audience by acknowledging their struggles and positioning her products as solutions. Growing Your Email List An effective email list remains one of the most powerful tools for monetization. I emphasize the importance of growing your email list and offers the following tips: Create an Irresistible Freebie Identify Pain Points: Create a freebie that addresses a specific pain point of your audience. This could be a cheat sheet, e-book, or printable. Promote It Widely: Share your freebie across all your platforms, including your blog, social media, and email signature. Nurture Your Subscribers Welcome Sequence: Set up an automated welcome sequence to introduce new subscribers to your brand and provide value from the start. Regular Communication: Send regular emails with valuable content, updates, and promotions to keep your audience engaged. Taking a Holistic View of Your Business The secret to business success lies in taking a holistic view of your business. Focus on what truly matters—authentic connections and solving real problems. By doing so, you can set yourself up for success in Q4 and beyond. Consider Adding Digital Products I suggest you consider the addition of digital products to your offerings. Digital products can provide a scalable source of income and offer value to your audience. Seek Expert Guidance To help navigate your next steps, I offers a free 20-minute strategy call. This can be an invaluable resource for gaining personalized advice and insights. Conclusion By focusing on genuine connections, understanding audience pain points, and nurturing effective strategies, you can position yourself for success in Q4 and lay the groundwork for long-term growth. Remember, the key to success lies not in a checklist of tasks but in taking a holistic view of your business and focusing on what truly matters.

We've been of the opinion that the Cosmos Hub and Ethereum rollup-centric roadmap are converging. Both of the scaling methodologies are somewhat opposites (appchains at first vs. baselayer L1 then building vertically), however they seem to be converging. The convergence of roadmaps is particularly interesting because of the challenges faced by Cosmos Zones and the need for upgrades via forking the chain. In today's episode, Andy hosted Ganesh Swamy, founder of Covalent, to discuss this convergence and more. We talked about scaling data availability in rollups with Celestia and blobs, preserving and accessing transaction data with the Ethereum wayback machine and competition between data availability solutions and Ethereum itself. Covalent emerged from a simple idea of 'pulling Ethereum transactions into Excel'. The core idea of creating a persistent, perpetual storage machine for blockchains is a result of Ganesh's extensive database engineering experience. We also discussed how this works under the hood, and why having a long-term data storage solution for blockchains is crucial. Towards the end we went on to discuss the troubles of the token economy that we are currently in. Negative sentiment, early stage investing, high FDV low float, and some of the potential solutions that we see out there. Join us for a holistic overview of some of the topics shaping the modular ecosystem going forward. Website: https://therollup.co/ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1P6ZeYd..

In the realm of ancient mysteries and untapped knowledge, our latest podcast episode features the brilliant Geoffrey Drumm. With a lifelong passion for ancient Egypt, Geoffrey delves deep into the enigma of the Great Pyramid, proposing a groundbreaking theory about its true purpose. As he reveals, these monumental structures were not mere tombs but sophisticated chemical reactors designed for a variety of applications, from industrial-scale chemical production to advanced mining operations.Geoffrey's fascination with Egypt began in childhood, inspired by adventurous tales of Indiana Jones and a profound curiosity about ancient civilizations. This passion led him to explore alternative theories about the Great Pyramid's function, diverging from the conventional belief in its role as a mere electrical generator. Instead, Geoffrey posits that the pyramids were used to produce chemicals such as ammonia and sulfuric acid on an industrial scale, a hypothesis grounded in extensive research and first-hand expeditions to Egypt.One of the most striking aspects of Geoffrey Drumm's theory is his detailed explanation of how the pyramids harnessed natural forces. "The Egyptian pyramids were operational during a time period from 8500 BCE to 5300 BCE, a time known as the Sahara wet period," Geoffrey explains. During this era, the pyramids utilized naturally occurring thunderstorms and geological features to power their chemical processes. This revelation sheds new light on the advanced understanding of physics and chemistry possessed by ancient Egyptians.Geoffrey's hypothesis extends beyond the Great Pyramid, encompassing other significant structures like the step pyramid, red pyramid, and Bent Pyramid. He describes a network of interconnected pyramids and temples that worked together to produce a range of chemicals essential for ancient Egyptian society. From agricultural fertilizers to compounds used in mining and metallurgy, these ancient technologies showcase a level of sophistication that rivals modern industrial processes.SPIRITUAL TAKEAWAYSAncient Wisdom and Modern Science: Geoffrey's research bridges the gap between ancient wisdom and modern scientific understanding, highlighting the advanced knowledge of physics and chemistry possessed by ancient civilizations.The Power of Nature: The pyramids' reliance on natural forces like lightning and geological features underscores the profound connection ancient Egyptians had with their environment, harnessing its power for technological advancements.Holistic View of Ancient Technologies: Geoffrey's comprehensive approach provides a holistic view of ancient technologies, emphasizing the interconnectedness of various pyramids and their roles in supporting a thriving, complex society.In his exploration, Geoffrey also touches upon the spiritual and therapeutic aspects of the pyramids. The temples and structures surrounding the pyramids were designed not only for practical purposes but also for spiritual ascension and healing. This dual purpose reflects a deep understanding of the interplay between the physical and metaphysical realms, a concept that continues to captivate researchers and spiritual seekers alike.In conclusion, Geoffrey Drumm's insights offer a fresh perspective on one of history's greatest mysteries. His dedication to uncovering the true function of the Great Pyramid and other ancient structures reveals a civilization far more advanced than previously imagined. These revelations not only challenge our understanding of history but also inspire us to explore the hidden potentials of natural forces and ancient wisdom.Please enjoy my conversation with Geoffrey Drumm.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.

Is the bible credible, Is the bible reliable, and is the bible relevant? These are questions that have been asked throughout history but are being asked by more people today, especially by Millennials, Gen Z, and Gen Alpha. We as Christ followers should be able to answer this question because, even though there is evidence that there is a God all around us, the claim of Christ as Messiah comes directly from the recorded scriptures of the bible.

**Embracing the Seasons of Change: A Fresh Perspective on Nonprofit Growth with Michael Randall** In an enlightening episode of our nonprofit-focused podcast, we had the pleasure of speaking with Michael Randall, the visionary founder and director of Randall Consulting Associates. Michael, a distinguished member of the nonprofit ISD network, shared his innovative framework known as the "Seasons of Change," offering a fresh lens through which nonprofits can view growth and development.  **Seasons of Growth: A Gardener's Approach to Nonprofit Expansion** Michael introduced a compelling metaphor likening nonprofit growth to the cyclical process of gardening. This approach breaks down into three key phases: Preparing, Cultivating, and Harvesting. Each stage demands specific actions and considerations, mirroring the thoughtful stewardship of a gardener tending to their land with an eye towards both present vitality and future sustainability.  **Preparing Phase: Setting the Stage for Growth** In the preparing phase, organizations are encouraged to assess their current resources and readiness for expansion, much like a gardener evaluates their land before planting. This involves identifying and addressing potential obstacles and ensuring the necessary infrastructure and support systems are in place. **Cultivating Phase: Nurturing Development** During cultivation, the focus shifts to actively supporting and nurturing growth. This means not only expanding services and outreach but also strengthening internal processes, staff capabilities, and organizational culture to sustain increased scale and complexity. **Harvesting Phase: Reaping and Reflecting on Success** The final phase emphasizes consolidating gains and integrating new developments into the organization's ongoing operations. It's a time for reflection, celebration of achievements, and strategic planning for the next cycle of growth. **Challenges and Insights: Beyond Quick Fixes in Fundraising** Michael critically addressed the common pitfalls of rapid expansion, particularly the dangers of scaling up too quickly in response to sudden influxes of funding, such as those from generous donors like Mackenzie Scott. He stressed the importance of holistic growth that enhances the quality and comprehensiveness of services, rather than merely expanding for expansion's sake. **A Call to Action: Embracing a Holistic View of Growth** The conversation with Michael Randall serves as a call to action for nonprofit leaders to adopt a more nuanced and strategic approach to growth. By embracing the "Seasons of Change" framework, organizations can ensure they are not only expanding their reach but also deepening their impact and securing their sustainability for the future. **Conclusion: Nurturing Sustainable Growth in the Nonprofit Sector** Michael Randall's insights into the "Seasons of Change" offer invaluable guidance for nonprofits navigating the complexities of growth and development. By adopting a gardener's mindset, organizations can cultivate a thriving future that honors their mission and serves their communities effectively.

EPISODE TWOWHY LEADERS MUST ADOPT A HOLISTIC VIEW TO CREATE AND SUSTAIN HIGH PERFORMANCESUMMARYJames talks about collapsing with Pneumonia as a wake up call that prompted a total rethink about how to create and crucially sustain high performance without compromising physical or mental health. He talks about the importance of embracing a holistic view of high performance and why that is an X factor in attaining new levels of performance, resilience and fulfilment.KEY TAKEAWAYS Collapsing with Pneumonia was the wake up call that prompted a total rethink of what high performance was. That symptom of burnout led to a new holistic approach being embraced.Leaders focusing solely on professional skill set and competency as the key to high performance is outdated thinking.Our personal life and professional role cannot be viewed as two separate entities. The mindset shift to a holistic approach is crucial to creating and sustaining high performance. Very difficult to be an impactful leader when core areas of life such as physical and mental health, relationships, friendships and hobbies are neglected.Embracing a holistic approach is an X factor for most people in realising new levels of professional performance, resilience and fulfilment.ABOUT THE HOST James is an experienced mentor, coach and thought leader who works with a range of clients from FTSE 100 companies, SME´s the NHS and wider public and not for profit sectors.His twenty year career in elite sport initially as a professional rugby player but predominantly as a chief executive has given him an invaluable insight in managing the success, failures and pressures associated with leadership at the highest level.As a high performance coach James specialises in enhancing resilience and leadership development. He is a passionate advocate of the notion that to find lasting fulfilment we need to take a holistic view of high performance and create it in both our professional roles and personal lives.

EPISODE ONEWHY WE ARE CALLED THE LONELY LEADERSUMMARYLeadership can be a lonely and isolating experience. In this episode James outlines challenges of leadership and the three core reasons behind the creation of The Lonely Leader brand.KEY TAKEAWAYS Many leaders operate under the delusion that they are expected to have all the answers. This leads to internalisation of pressure.Left unaddressed this will compromise resilience, performance, physical and mental health.Leaders must retain a keen focus on their growth and development to facilitate high performance.There is leadership ability inside all of us.ABOUT THE HOST James is an experienced mentor, coach and thought leader who works with a range of clients from FTSE 100 companies, SME´s the NHS and wider public and not for profit sectors.His twenty year career in elite sport initially as a professional rugby player but predominantly as a chief executive has given him an invaluable insight in managing the success, failures and pressures associated with leadership at the highest level.As a high performance coach James specialises in enhancing resilience and leadership development.

EPISODE THREELEADERSHIP BOOKS EVERY LEADER SHOULD READSUMMARYOne of the most frequently asked questions that James is asked is “What leadership books do you recommend?” In this episode he profiles his current top five books and the key lessons he has taken from each one. KEY TAKEAWAYS Studying high performers provided a wonderful source of knowledge, insight and inspiration.We can always move ourselves forward if we are willing to work hard enough and adopt a growth mindset.One of our biggest jobs as leaders is to help our people grow, to help them realise their potential and achieve high performance.As a leader our words and actions are integral to shaping culture.A powerful reminder that what initially seems stressful pales into insignificance when we step back and look at the bigger picture.ABOUT THE HOST James is an experienced mentor, coach and thought leader who works with a range of clients from FTSE 100 companies, SME´s the NHS and wider public and not for profit sectors.His twenty year career in elite sport initially as a professional rugby player but predominantly as a chief executive has given him an invaluable insight in managing the success, failures and pressures associated with leadership at the highest level.As a high performance coach James specialises in enhancing resilience and leadership development.

MicrofluidX is an early-stage developer of cell and gene therapy manufacturing platforms that aims to streamline the transition from laboratory research to large-scale GMP manufacturing.In Episode #31 of the Speed to Data podcast, Key Tech hosts Andy Rogers and Director of Strategy Lei Zong speak with Dr. Lindsey Clarke, MicrofluidX Vice President of Commercial, about the company's solution to advanced therapy commercialization.Need to knowCell and gene therapies are revolutionizing medicine — Since the 1990s, these therapies have opened new avenues for curing once-terminal conditions like cancers and heart disease.However, the field is far from industrialized — Skilled operators produce these living medicines in small batches using systems sourced from a complex supplier ecosystem.Scalable manufacturing is part of the solution — MicrofuidX is developing a scalable bioreactor that speeds time to insight and accelerates commercialization.The nitty-grittyCell and gene therapies allow the patient's body to cure itself with a single dose. “When I first started in this industry,” Dr. Clarke explains, “we didn't know if these therapies were going to work, then they started working, and then literally in the last five years, we started saying ‘curing.' To have seen that in my career is incredible for me.”Researchers are now developing therapies for chronic conditions like epilepsy, rheumatic diseases, and diabetes.“I think that's hugely exciting if, from a technology perspective, slightly concerning that there's really big numbers of patients at the end of these. Do we have the tools that will enable us to get to that scale?”R&D pipelines translate manual laboratory processes into automated, scalable commercial production. A challenge for chemistry is more complex for cell and gene therapies that depend upon living cells where, as Dr. Clarke points out, small changes can have big impacts.She contrasts feeding cells in production, where automated incubators maintain perfect conditions, to a lab where a human operator moves a flask to a hood, removes the cap, adds media through a pipette, replaces the cap, and returns the flask. These steps introduce stresses and temperature variations that won't exist in manufacturing.“We don't measure it,” Dr. Clarke says, “We don't know what impact it really has, but it could be having an impact. So you're having to go through an optimization phase that is involving large scale technology.”Data that made the difference:MicrofluidX balances complexity with simplicity. The company's core technology is a bioreactor with automation, control, and sensor layers that let this single platform scale from milliliters in the lab to liters in production. Dr. Clarke explains, “It means that you can really start to optimize processes in small volume, understand it, and then drive it to where you need it for manufacturing.”Listen to the market early. Letting potential customers shape the development path can optimize your product-market fit. “If you've already got something that's ready for the market, it's too late,” Dr. Clarke says. Qualitative discussions identify issues when you have time to change.Make engineers talk with people. Asking engineers, whether they want to or not, to join these customer conversations is “really good for them,” Dr. Clarke says. Engineers ask different kinds of questions that directly impact development.

There are a lot of people talking about burnout, but most of them are actually only teaching basic stress management strategies. Today's guest, Cait Donovan calls bulshit on most of what is being called burnout prevention and recovery. A licensed acupuncturist and Chinese Medicine practitioner turned keynote speaker, author, trauma informed burnout recovery coach and host of the wildly popular podcast, “Fried: The Burnout Podcast” has become a good friend over the past couple of years. I have so much respect for her no-BS approach, that blends personal experience and scientific inquiry, with a passion for addressing burnout on both individual and societal levels. The reality is that burnout is not a character defect, nor it is a badge of honor. We live in a culture that puts all of us at risk for burnout and the women who listen to this podcast are at an even higher risk than most, for reasons that Cait and I will get into in this interview. Here are a few of the highlights before we dig right in: 1️⃣ Burnout prevention ≠ burnout recovery: Cait Donovan challenges the traditional notion of burnout prevention, arguing that it focuses too much on stress management practices. Instead, she emphasizes the importance of burnout recovery, which requires understanding and addressing individual factors that contribute to burnout.2️⃣ Unique protection factors: Every individual has their own set of burnout protection factors. These factors could range from having a strong support system, regular vacations, engaging in hobbies, to even embracing change. Identifying and incorporating these factors into our lives is crucial in preventing burnout.3️⃣ Burnout is not solely caused by workplace factors. Other aspects such as cultural, health, family history, and environmental factors can also contribute to burnout risk. By recognizing and addressing these underlying factors, we can mitigate burnout and improve our overall well-being.Want to get more of Cait into your life?

Is feeling "tired" and "stressed" your normal? Have you lost your creative spark and zest for life, but can't seem to pin down the root cause? James Wilson famously dubbed adrenal fatigue "the 21st century syndrome" because our system glorifies work and machine-like output while devaluing the true needs of our human bodies. We crave nature connection, sunshine, rest, play, creativity and physical movement but paradoxically live in a system that follows the laws of production over intuition. Well, today you'll hear all about the consequences of this lifestyle! Kristen Files, my guest today, is a functional nutritional therapy practitioner and master restorative wellness practitioner who is board-certified in holistic nutrition. She gives us a comprehensive introduction to the adrenal glands, the HPA axis, the hormones that govern our bodies at different stages of life (hello, menopause!) and simple tips for healing hormonal dysregulation.

On the surface, Matt Cooksey had it all - the house, the car, the enviable lifestyle that most people dream of. But beneath the facade of success, there lurked a deep-seated unhappiness. It was a moment on a treadmill, where he physically and metaphorically fell off track, that changed everything. A voice whispered to him, telling him he wasn't bound to the life he was living, igniting a fire within him to embark on a journey of self-exploration and transformation. Little did he know, this path would lead him to unravel the mysteries of his own psyche and intertwine psychology and spirituality in ways he never thought possible... In this episode, you will be able to: Uncover the powerful fusion of psychology and spirituality in developing a holistic approach to therapy. Encounter new perspectives on using personal traumas as a catalyst for unparalleled growth. Discover how mapping your psyche can become a potent instrument of self-discovery. Gain insight into the critical role of letting go and surrendering in your spiritual voyage. Realize the value of accepting spiritual growth as an ongoing, ever-evolving process. In the world of therapy and personal growth, Matt Cooksey is not your ordinary guide. He champions the unconventional idea of mapping the psyche to aid self-exploration, integrating psychology and spirituality. He is also passionate about the importance of embracing our darkness rather than denying it.  An accomplished therapist, Matt is on a mission to help individuals reconcile their inner light and darkness; inspiring them to see their supposed flaws as the implicit facets of their misunderstood genius. Drawing from his own journey of transformation and the wisdom of numerous schools of thought, Matt provides a cohesive interrelationship between our mental and spiritual selves. His ability to empower, through relatability and transparency, makes him both an inspirational and empathetic figure within this profound dialogue. The key moments in this episode are: 00:00:13 - Introduction 00:03:17 - Matt's Midlife Crisis 00:06:35 - The Integration of Psychology and Spirituality 00:09:25 - Holistic View of Being 00:13:06 - Mapping the Psyche 00:16:50 - The Importance of Integrated Approach to Spirituality 00:19:30 - Facing the Monster and the Darkness 00:23:10 - Surrender and Action: Finding Balance 00:26:40 - Recognizing Signs and Embracing Failure 00:33:31 - The Continuous Process of Surrender 00:35:22 - The Truth Hurts 00:37:24 - The Spiral Staircase Analogy 00:39:13 - Personal Lessons and Life's Work 00:42:44 - Connecting 

Anxiety and the recovery process do not exist in a vacuum. You are an entire person, and all the parts of you come into this process. Holistic is not a word you hear me use often, but it is a word we need to acknowledge because when dealing with chronic/disordered anxiety and the recovery process, your background, experiences, beliefs, and views of yourself and the world will enter the picture in various ways. * They will influence how you conceptualize your anxiety. * They will influence how you embrace and approach the recovery process. * They will influence the parts of recovery you "get" and the parts you may need to adjust here and there. * They will cause you to confront emotions, situations, and challenges that aren't always about anxiety, but may be indicative of other parts of you and other parts of your life. Forgetting this - forgetting that anxiety and recovery do not exist in a vacuum - can lead you into a trap where you're judging yourself negatively, giving up, or seeing your situation as hopeless when you don't have to see it that way. As always, comments and questions are welcomed. I hope you find this episode helpful in some way.
