What if the secret to confidence, peak performance, and even happiness wasn't about being perfect all the time—but learning how to access a powerful brainwave state on demand? In this conversation, I sit down with Dr. Izzy Justice—neuroscientist, performance coach, and author of Your Brain Swings Every Club—to explore the science of brainwaves, trauma, and what he calls “Chasing 10 Hertz.” You'll hear how endurance events, emotional relativity, and even micro-traumas shape confidence, how to intentionally “spike down” into presence, and why your brain's electricity is the language of the human experience. Dr. Justice breaks down how confidence and pessimism are simply access issues, why sensory input is the key to flow, and how to simplify your pursuit of peak performance in golf, business, and life. In this episode, you'll learn: Why doing hard things expands your benchmark for confidence and resilience How trauma—both big and micro—acts as the ultimate backdrop for your decisions The neuroscience behind brainwave states and their impact on performance What makes the 10 Hertz state so powerful and how to access it How to “spike down” when stress or distraction takes over Why happiness is really about amplifying sensory input A practical way to simplify performance by only being “perfect” twice a day Get your pencils ready and start listening.  P.S.

Trauma is the ultimate benchmark—it shapes risk perception more than success does. Electricity is the brain's language—high spikes drown sensory input and sabotage performance. 10 Hertz is the sweet spot—it amplifies sensory input and unlocks stored knowledge. Presence = sensory amplification—seeing, feeling, hearing more deeply in the moment. Flow isn't magic—it's measurable through brainwaves, heart rate, and oxygen levels. Be “perfect” twice a day—reserve your energy for the two most important moments instead of chasing constant perfection. Key Quotes: “Confidence and pessimism aren't traits—they're both access issues.” “We don't have to be perfect all the time—just perfect in the moments that matter.” “Electricity is the language of the brain—and therefore the human experience.” “Your trauma is your hostage, but you can use it as fuel instead of shackles.” “At 10 Hertz, sensory input is amplified and your best self shows up.” “Happiness isn't about possessions—it's about amplifying what you feel, see, and hear.” “The best experiences of our lives always happen in the same state—why keep it a secret?” Time Stamps: 00:00: The Allure of Ultra-Endurance Events 02:34: Emotional Relativity and Personal Growth 05:45: The Role of Trauma in Personal Development 08:32: Happiness and the Pursuit of Meaning 11:25: Amplifying Sensory Input for Fulfillment 14:15: Understanding Brainwave States and Performance 27:12: Understanding Trauma and Its Impact on Performance 28:49: The Power of 10 Hertz in Enhancing Sensory Input 31:39: Cognitive Functionality and Accessing Memory 37:41: Flow State: The Intersection of Performance and Presence 40:38: Perception of Time: How We Experience Moments 47:26: The Role of Substances in Achieving 10 Hertz 51:47: Actionable Takeaways for Achieving Peak Performance

Føler du at arbeidsdagen din i stor grad går med til «arbeid om arbeidet»? Uendelige møter, konstante e-poster og multitasking som tapper mer energi enn den gir resultater? Ifølge Deloitte's 2025 Global Human Capital Trends er det en økende erkjennelse av at tradisjonelle arbeidsmåter ikke lenger fungerer. Fremtidens arbeidsliv krever mer fleksibilitet, smartere bruk av teknologi og en kultur som fremmer psykologisk trygghet og ekte fokus. I vår nyeste episode av i loopen tar vi et grundig dypdykk i dette moderne paradokset. Vi får innsikt fra tre spennende gjester: Karin Knardahl Frost, SVP People & Organizational Development i Wallenius Wilhelmsen, et globalt shipping- og logistikkfirma med 9 000 ansatte i 27 land. Hun deler hvordan de leverer mer med mindre, samtidig som de balanserer globale prioriteringer og kulturelle forskjeller. Helene A. Wergeland, senior Organizational Development Specialist i reMarkable, forteller hvordan teknologi både kan hjelpe og overvelde oss, og hvordan de frigjør menneskelig potensial gjennom smartere organisasjons- og lederutvikling. John Erik Eikland, Director i Human Capital i Deloitte Norge, gir et unikt internasjonalt perspektiv fra Danmark, Japan og Norge, og belyser hvordan kultur påvirker arbeidsrytmer – og hvorfor psykologisk trygghet er nøkkelen til å kunne si «nei» til unødvendige møter. Episoden ledes av Julie McCarthy, og du kan lytte til den på Spotify, Apple Podcasts eller din foretrukne podkastplattform.

Welcome to the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence. On today's episode, host Sara Payne is joined by Melissa Prusher, an accomplished B2B healthcare marketing leader with 25 years of experience in professional services and a deep focus on healthcare IT. Together, they unpack one of the most underappreciated drivers of brand credibility, customer loyalty, and market momentum in B2B healthcare: human capital. Sara and Melissa dive into how the people behind the brand—employees, leaders, customer-facing teams—impact brand perception, trust, and community advocacy. They explore practical strategies for aligning internal culture, marketing, sales, and delivery teams to ensure the experiences promised during the sales process are lived out through implementation. They also discuss actionable ways marketing leaders can activate both partners and employees to serve as authentic brand advocates—without losing the polish or control that can worry corporate stakeholders. The conversation spans the unique challenges and opportunities of B2B healthcare marketing, from navigating complex decision-making cycles with clinicians, IT, and procurement leaders, to building trust among evidence-driven buyers by showcasing real-world outcomes and partnerships. Real-life examples from Melissa's career, plus a fun quick-fire round about admired brands, marketing myths, and timeless leadership advice, round out a rich episode packed with both strategic insights and practical tips. Key Takeaways: People Are the Greatest Brand Asset: Melissa emphasizes that in B2B healthcare, buyers don't just evaluate products and platforms—they evaluate the people behind them. Employees, partners, and advocates are a company's most valuable assets. Their actions, professionalism, and alignment across the buyer journey directly shape trust, credibility, and differentiation in a crowded market. Marketing's Role in Ensuring Alignment and Continuity: As organizations grow and service offerings expand, maintaining alignment between marketing, sales, and delivery becomes more complex—but also more crucial. Marketing must act as both gatekeeper and advocate, ensuring consistent messaging, customer experience, and values are reflected at every touchpoint, from pre-sale promises to post-sale execution and storytelling. Building Brand Credibility with Evidence and Advocacy: Healthcare buyers—especially clinicians and IT leaders—rely on evidence and peer validation over flashy claims. Brands must back up their promises with concrete examples and case studies that demonstrate outcomes. Melissa highlights the importance of forming a “community of advocacy”—actively partnering with customers and industry voices to tell authentic shared stories via media, webinars, bylines, and conferences. Activating Employee Advocacy at Scale: Brands can no longer rely solely on executive spokespeople or polished corporate channels. Melissa recommends empowering employees to share brand stories, successes, and experiences on social media and professional platforms to extend reach and build trust through relatable, authentic voices. She outlines practical frameworks for doing this—establishing guidelines, structured programs, and easy-to-share content, plus embracing both formal and informal advocacy to harness the “power of your network's network.” Measuring the Soft Power of Trust and Community: Though brand trust and advocacy don't always translate neatly into immediate business metrics, they drive critical outcomes—like improved recruitment, greater media interest, and increased customer loyalty. Melissa suggests looking at utilization rates, talent pipeline improvements, engagement growth, and anecdotal feedback alongside hard KPIs. Over time, these “soft” investments in people and stories deliver tangible business results, fueling the virtuous circle of brand advocacy and...

Welcome back to the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence.In today's episode, host Sara Payne sits down with Gino Giovannelli—digital marketing strategist, educator, and founder of Miles Interactive—to discuss a concept that doesn't get enough credit in modern marketing: the power of saying no. Drawing on his vast experience with brands such as Caribou Coffee, Lifetime Fitness, and even the Super Bowl Host Committee, Gino unpacks why essentialism—doing fewer things, but better—stands at the heart of smart, sustainable marketing strategy.Gino, who also serves as a professor at the University of St. Thomas and hosts the podcast In the Key of D, brings a fresh, liberating perspective on how marketers can reclaim focus, avoid digital overwhelm, and create more impact by prioritizing what truly matters. Together, Sara and Gino dive into what it means for marketing leaders to show restraint, how to strategically select the right digital channels, and why letting go of the “more is better” mentality can propel organizations (and their teams) further.This episode is a must-listen for anyone feeling stretched too thin or uncertain about how to cut through today's digital chaos. Whether you're a CMO, a marketing manager, or someone seeking to make marketing more meaningful and manageable, Sara and Gino provide both the “why” and the “how” for ruthless prioritization in the digital age.Thank you for joining the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence. Because the future of healthcare depends on it.Key TakeawaysSaying “No” Is Essential to Strategic Marketing Success: Gino champions the philosophy of essentialism, urging marketers to do fewer things—but with much more intention and excellence. Rather than reflexively saying “yes” to every opportunity or channel, success often comes from confidently (and respectfully) saying “no” to good ideas so you have room to say an enthusiastic “hell yes” to the right ones. This discipline frees up resources and attention for what truly drives the business forward.Let Business Goals Lead Channel Selection: Marketers often feel pressured to appear everywhere—SEO, SEM, email, social, display, content—but Gino explains why most organizations lack the resources (and sometimes the skills) to execute across all six major digital channels effectively. Instead, he recommends letting business objectives—in particular, whether your greatest need is acquisition or retention—determine which channels you prioritize. For example, a startup should invest in acquisition-focused channels, while an established retention-focused business can double down on email and social.Break Out of Habit—Strategy Is About What You Should Do, Not Just What You Could Do: Much of what marketing teams do daily is based on habit rather than strategic necessity. Gino suggests taking a periodic step back to audit activities, questioning which ones genuinely serve current business priorities. Developing a digital marketing strategy means making tough choices—prioritizing high-impact, low-burden opportunities, and relentlessly cutting busywork and legacy activities that offer little value. As Gino puts it, “the difference between could do and should do is simply ‘no'.”Apply a Proven Framework for Channel Prioritization: Gino shares his five-step methodology used in both his consulting and university teaching. This framework transforms overwhelming possibilities into a sharp, actionable plan—ensuring resources are channeled where they have the most leverage.Evolve With the Changing Digital Landscape—And Use Advanced Tools Wisely: The digital ecosystem is increasingly blurry and interconnected; channels now blend and overlap, making it harder to...

This week, we look at the potential restoration of a quorum at the National Labor Relations Board (“NLRB” or “Board”), the U.S. Department of Labor's (DOL's) deregulatory initiatives, and lessons from a high-profile workplace incident at a Coldplay concert. NLRB May Regain Quorum Lacking a quorum, the NLRB is currently unable to issue decisions affecting workplace policies and disputes. On July 17, 2025, President Trump nominated two Republicans to fill vacant seats on the Board. Senate confirmation of the nominees is required to restore the Board's authority and ensure continued guidance for employers. DOL Begins Deregulation Push The DOL's deregulatory agenda could reshape compliance priorities for employers. Plans include 63 actions to roll back regulations and align with federal mandates. Coldplay Concert Exposes Workplace Romance  A viral “kiss cam” moment at a recent Coldplay concert led to the resignations of a CEO and a Chief People Officer and heightened legal exposure for their company.

Teams want certainty, but in an uncertain world, how can you deliver it? Find out how in this episode. We dive deep with Mike Mears, Leadership Theoretician, former GE change-agent under Jack Welch, and ex-CIA Chief of Human Capital. Mike Mears reveals the neuroscience backed rituals and intelligence inspired frameworks that clear away uncertainty, sharpen your focus, and unleash your team's full potential. From GE's “Workout” sessions to CIA secure briefings, Mike unpacks his three-pillar “Certainty” method. Mike shares the mindset pivots that turn cautious managers into bold innovators, and the battlefield lessons of building true psychological safety, even in the most critical situations. Tune in to discover how these proven insights can elevate your leadership, strengthen your culture, and drive transformative results, starting today. Journey Highlights & Story Beats GE's “Workout” Revelation: Rebecca and Callum discover Mike's first “aha” moment under Jack Welch, how a noisy, chaotic workshop taught him that culture change starts with listening, not lecturing. CIA's Safe-House Confession: Mike recounts the night an agent risked their career to report a critical encryption error, because Mike had built a “safe house” of trust. That moment taught him that psychological safety isn't a luxury; it's a survival tool. Military Roots & Dual-Engine Leadership: From survival-of-the-fittest drills to commanding a nuclear missile site, Mike learned that drive alone breeds burnout and only paired with genuine empathy will people truly follow. Key Takeaways Certainty Overrides Fear Our primitive “survival” wiring clings to the status quo. Weekly 5-minute, agenda-free check-ins and timely praise rewire brains toward confident change. Psychological Safety as a Secure Briefing Room In covert ops, absolute trust saves lives. In business, it unleashes candid feedback and breakthrough ideas. Start small, smile at every team member, ask one open-ended question, then listen. Insight Prompts: Your CEO “Ask” Inspired by CIA Director's, assign each direct report a single, high-stakes question. Give them a week to reflect, and then collect ten ideas back. Dopamine-driven “aha” moments follow. The Dual-Engine Model: Drive + Empathy Military toughness and modern leadership demands both relentless mission focus and genuine concern for people's well-being. Notable Quotes “Great bosses don't force change; they engineer certainty so teams feel safe innovating.” “You don't need all the answers, just the right questions and the space for insights to emerge.” “Pair relentless drive with real empathy, then watch your people follow you anywhere.” Actionable Steps for Leaders. Implement CIA-Style Check-Ins: Five-minute, no-agenda chats each week with every direct report: What's top of mind? How can I support you? Rotate Your Ops: Structure work into three phases, core execution, innovation sprint, and recovery to maintain peak performance and morale. Launch an Insight Prompt: Give each team member one strategic question, set a deadline, reconvene for accountability and harvest high-impact ideas.

Birth rates are crashing worldwide. After the Spike author Dean Spears reveals why depopulation — not overpopulation — threatens humanity's future.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1180What We Discuss with Dean Spears:Global depopulation is coming. Birth rates are falling worldwide and will soon drop below replacement level, causing population to peak then decline rapidly within decades.Depopulation won't solve climate change. Environmental problems are solved by changing what people do, not reducing population. Timing doesn't align with climate urgency.Government birth rate policies largely fail. Of 26 countries with birth rates below 1.9, none have returned above 2.0 despite various incentives and programs.Fewer people means fewer innovations. People generate the ideas and technologies that solve problems. Depopulation reduces humanity's capacity for progress.Start conversations about population stabilization. Rather than endless decline, we can work toward stabilizing population and making parenting more feasible and fair.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

What happens when even the most powerful leaders pull every lever they've been taught to use—bonuses, metrics, training—and nothing changes? That's the question that set Mike Mears, former CIA Chief of Human Capital, on a mission to rethink leadership from the inside out. In this episode of Partnering Leadership, Mike joins Mahan Tavakoli to share deeply practical insights on why traditional leadership systems fall short—and what truly drives performance and innovation.As the founder of the CIA's Leadership Academy, Mike brings a unique combination of experience in intelligence, government, and corporate leadership. His ideas are grounded in neuroscience, behavioral psychology, and decades of operational leadership. Rather than focusing on leadership theory, he focuses on how leaders can create psychological certainty for their people—even amid external volatility.Throughout the conversation, Mike challenges long-held assumptions, including the overreliance on performance systems and leadership training that don't account for human nature. He reveals why emotional clarity and trust are more valuable than process, and how small, consistent actions from leaders—like weekly check-ins and genuine recognition—can transform team dynamics and unlock discretionary effort.This conversation is a must-listen for CEOs, board members, and senior leaders who want to move beyond abstract leadership models and build real engagement, alignment, and trust. With memorable stories and tested frameworks, Mike Mears offers a practical guide to leadership that resonates at every level of an organization.Actionable TakeawaysHear how a senior CIA leader's frustration with ineffective levers led to a deep reevaluation of leadership systemsLearn why many leadership tools—still rooted in industrial-era thinking—don't reflect how the brain actually worksDiscover how emotional uncertainty impacts employee performance and what leaders can do to restore clarity and directionUnderstand the behavioral progression that effective leaders follow: safety, trust, clarity, and only then challengeLearn why short, consistent check-ins often outperform more complex performance systemsHear Mike's candid reflection on the value of feedback—and why he wishes he had given far more of it as a leaderExplore how “soft accountability” can help embed new leadership habits without adding bureaucracyUnderstand the long-term damage of poor leadership selection—and why choosing the right managers matters more than developing the wrong onesLearn why culture is local, and why the team leader—not the organization—defines most of the employee experienceDiscover how to align leadership actions with human nature to build teams that perform better under pressure and changeConnect with Mike MearsMike Mears LinkedIn Mike Mears Website Connect with Mahan Tavakoli: Mahan Tavakoli Website Mahan Tavakoli on LinkedIn Partnering Leadership Website
