A Sixth of Humanity: Independent India's Development Odyssey is a landmark new book by the scholars Devesh Kapur and Arvind Subramanian.The book is an audacious attempt to trace how India—uniquely and daringly—attempted four concurrent transformations—building a state, creating an economy, changing society, and forging a sense of nationhood under conditions of universal suffrage.It is the joint product of one of India's most respected political scientists and one of its best known economists. The book includes insights from politics, economics, history, and literature and provides a developmental history of India that is big, bold, engaging, and utterly unique.To talk more about their book and the lessons it holds for India's next 75 years, Arvind and Devesh return to Grand Tamasha to speak with Milan.Devesh Kapur is the Starr Foundation professor of South Asia Studies at Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies.Arvind Subramanian is senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics, in Washington, DC. He previously served as former chief economic adviser to the government of India.The trio discuss the vision for the book, India's checkered history of upholding the rule of law, and what we get wrong about India's tryst with central planning. Plus, they discuss India's stellar record as an export powerhouse, the long shadow of vested interests, the pressures on India's model of fiscal federalism, and ongoing challenges with nation-building.Watch the video version of this episode here.Episode notes:1.

What happens when your med school doesn't like your TikToks? This week, we talk to Dr. Kumail Hussain, a physician who went viral for his medical content… and got in serious trouble for it. We dig into the story that followed: professionalism hearings, probation, and the ripple effects that followed him into residency. But this isn't just about one doctor's social media misstep, it's about what medicine still fears. Free expression. Humanity. The idea that doctors might have personalities outside the hospital. We talk about how far is too far when it comes to posting, how institutions are catching up (or not), and why the next generation of doctors will need to understand the internet as well as they understand anatomy. Takeaways: How one med student's videos became a case study in “professionalism.” What happens when old-school institutions meet new-school creators. Why no one can agree on what it actually means. How online presence can shape, or sink, a medical career. Why the next generation of doctors must be allowed to show up as humans. — Want more Kumail Hussain?: Snack Store: https://snackd.shop/ https://www.instagram.com/thekumailh/ https://www.youtube.com/@thekumailh https://www.tiktok.com/@thekumailh https://www.facebook.com/thekumailhussain1 To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live  We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

We've worked alongside people for years, only to realize that we know nothing about their personal life. And it probably affected our working relationship. Knowing your colleagues as humans reframes inevitable challenges at work. Had we known our colleagues better, would we have worked through disagreements better or found new ways to collaborate? Yeah, we sure would have. Alison Rand, who helped establish the discipline of design operations through roles at Hot Studio, Frog, Automattic, and SAP, explores building relationships at work in her new book Sentido—a term that encompasses both making sense of things and feeling them deeply. In our conversation, Alison challenges the Silicon Valley orthodoxy of radical candor with her concept of radical humanity. She also explains why designops is fundamentally heart-driven work, and draws unexpected parallels between organizational dynamics and the regenerative systems of Puerto Rico's El Yunque rainforest. Bio Alison Rand brings a unique perspective forged in the crucible of real experience. A native NewYorker who lost her mother at sixteen, she learned early that life rarely follows neat narratives. Her career trajectory—from navigating the male-dominated agency world to building design operations practices at scale—taught her that the skills needed to thrive professionally often mirror those learned navigating the New York subway in the 1980s. After being laid off the same week MIT Press accepted her book proposal, she retreated to the woods to write what became part memoir, part radical reimagining of design leadership. She makes the case that organic intelligence matters as much as academic credentials, and that the future of design leadership lies not in prescriptive frameworks but in building cultures of genuine mutualism. Whether you're wrestling with organizational transformation or questioning the artificial boundaries between personal and professional identity, Alison offers hard-won wisdom about leading with both courage and compassion in spaces that often reward neither. *** Premium Episodes on Design Better This ad-supported episode is available to everyone.

What if the problem with construction isn't your process but your culture? In this first episode of Jason's Japan Reflections & Lean Series, Jason takes you inside what he learned studying Lean culture at its source and how Japan's quiet principle of respect for people changes everything. From jet lag to cultural shock, from U.S. “just figure it out” grit to Japan's “shoulder-to-shoulder” mentorship, Jason unpacks the biggest leadership shift our industry needs. This isn't another buzzword about empathy, it's a blueprint for transforming teams, training, and trust. You'll hear: Why “Respect for People” is the beating heart of Lean. How Japanese teams train side-by-side instead of blaming mistakes. The difference between improving chaos and building standards. Why Western management still carries the scars of Frederick Taylor. And how you can start leading like Japan without ever boarding a plane. If you've ever wondered why Lean thrives in Japan but stalls elsewhere, this episode gives you the answer. Listen now and learn how to build a culture that truly respects people.

Episode 182. In December of 2024 "Sake" received a special recognition from UNESCO - the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization. UNESCO is probably most famous for recognizing cultural heritage sites... like Mount Fuji or Himeji Castle.  But in the case of of sake made with koji, it was recognized officially as an "Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity". How cool is that? While this is not exactly hot-off-the-presses breaking news, we wanted to take a moment to recognize and reflect on this milestone.  The craft of making sake with koji is worth protecting, celebrating and handing down to the next generation of artisans.  Join us as we sip some some sake and enjoy our favorite Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity together. #SakeRevolutionSupport the show

Reid Hoffman has been at the center of every major tech shift, from co-founding LinkedIn and helping build PayPal to investing early in OpenAI. In this conversation, he looks ahead to the next transformation: how artificial intelligence will reshape work, science, and what it means to be human.In this episode, Reid joins Erik Torenberg and Alex Rampell to talk about what AI means for human progress, where Silicon Valley's blind spots lie, and why the biggest breakthroughs will come from outside the obvious productivity apps. They discuss why reasoning still limits today's AI, whether consciousness is required for true intelligence, and how to design systems that augment, not replace, people.Reid also reflects on LinkedIn's durability, the next generation of AI-native companies, and what friendship and purpose mean in an era where machines can simulate almost anything. This is a sweeping, high-level conversation at the intersection of technology, philosophy, and humanity. Resources:Follow Reid on X: ​​x.com/reidhoffmanFollow Alex on X: x.com/arampell Stay Updated: If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to like, subscribe, and share with your friends!Find a16z on X: https://x.com/a16zFind a16z on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/a16zListen to the a16z Podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5bC65RDvs3oxnLyqqvkUYXListen to the a16z Podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a16z-podcast/id842818711Follow our host: https://x.com/eriktorenbergPlease note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

Pastor Aaron McRae invites us to step into the story of God's creation — not as distant observers, but as participants in His masterpiece.From “In the beginning…” to “It was very good,” Scripture reveals a God who brings order out of chaos, light out of darkness, and life out of nothing. Humanity, created in His image, is the crown of creation — made for relationship, purpose, and worship.But the story doesn't stop there. Through rebellion came brokenness… and through covenant came redemption. From Genesis to Jesus, we discover that our true identity and purpose are not achieved but received — found only in our Creator.The creation story invites us to discover our true identity and purpose by looking to our Creator, not ourselves, and seeking His will and not just our ways.

You know what we have become really good at doing? Coming up with labels and boxes to put people in. We want to pack a punch and invoke emotion with the least words possible. What better way than to call people names that puts them into a box. Eliminates the need to even have a rational, intellectual argument. In this episode, I unpack how easily we lose sight of our humanity when we define ourselves—and others—by our roles, beliefs, or identities. From “mom” or “entrepreneur” to political or religious boxes, these labels make us forget the deeper essence of who we are at our core. When we drop the labels, even for a moment, we reconnect with that pure, loving part of us that existed long before the world told us who to be. This episode is an invitation to remember that we are all human first—and that real connection, grace, and peace come when we live from that place. Let's unpack together! Sometimes all you need is a nudge and someone to ask the questions so you can find the answers for you. Send me a DM or check out my website: www.unpackingmyself.com  

Summary In this conversation, S. Anthony Thomas explores the theme of indifference in relationships, detailing how it manifests and the emotional consequences it brings. He discusses the gradual decline of feelings in a relationship, leading to indifference, and how this can result in dehumanization of partners. The conversation emphasizes the importance of recognizing one's humanity and the need for respect in relationships to avoid the pitfalls of indifference. Takeaways Indifference can creep into relationships gradually. Dehumanization occurs when partners stop caring for each other. Indifference leads to a lack of emotional pain, which can be dangerous. When you dehumanize someone, you also damage your own humanity. Conflict can arise from indifference and lack of respect. It's important to communicate and address issues before they escalate. Indifference can lead to infidelity and emotional detachment. Respecting each other's humanity is crucial in relationships. Before acting out of anger, consider the consequences. Ending a relationship respectfully is better than becoming indifferent   Sound bites "You don't feel the pain anymore." "You don't become who you're supposed to be!" "Indifference never is."

He Was When We Were Not! MESSAGE SUMMARY: In this powerful exploration of Jesus' identity, we delve into the profound High Priestly Prayer found in John 17. This prayer reveals Jesus not just as a teacher or prophet, but as one who shares in the divine nature with God the Father. We're challenged to consider: Who is Jesus to us personally? The prayer showcases Jesus' unique relationship with the Father, calling Him 'Father' over 160 times in the Gospels. This intimacy extends to us as believers, inviting us into the very fellowship of the Trinity. As we contemplate this, we're reminded that our unity as Christians is rooted in our union with God Himself. The prayer also reveals Jesus' eternal existence and His role in creation, emphasizing His divinity. This understanding transforms how we view the cross - not as a tragedy, but as our salvation. Let's reflect on how this deeper knowledge of Jesus' nature can impact our daily walk with Him and our relationships with others.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, I now take a deep breath and stop. So often I miss your hand and gifts in my life because I am preoccupied and anxious. Grant me the power to pause each day and each week to simply rest in your arms of love. In Jesus' name, amen.    Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 132). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, Because of who I am in Jesus Christ, I will not be driven by Inadequacy. Rather, I will abide in the Lord's Abundance. “I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in Me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from Me you can do nothing.” (John 15:5).

What does the future of coaching look like… and what can we learn from those who helped build it?Ruth Rochelle returns to The Coach's Journey Podcast to reflect on how the coaching world has evolved over the past four decades and where it might be heading next.Prompted by a listener's question, Ruth shares stories from the early days of coaching - when it was more movement than industry - through the professionalisation of the 1990s to today's fast-changing, tech-enabled landscape. Alongside the history, she offers her vision for what's emerging now: deeper work, greater humanity, and a renewed sense of trust.Ruth and Joey explore how coaching has shifted from performance to presence, from achievement to wholeness, and from certainty to curiosity. They discuss scepticism in the early days (and now), the rise of coaching bodies such as the ICF and EMCC, the impact of technology and AI, and why compassion and simplicity remain at the heart of great coaching.In this episode, Ruth talks about:Why the earliest coaching approaches focused on the inner game and self-beliefHow the field grew from informal practice to global professionThe evolution from performance and achievement to whole-person coachingWhy trust, compassion, and presence still matter most for coaches todayRuth also invites every coach to listen inwardly and lead the way forward for the profession. If you've ever wondered how the coaching profession began - or where it's going next - this conversation offers wisdom, warmth, and hope for coaches building meaningful, sustainable practices in a fast-changing world.For more information about Ruth, visit https://www.ruthrochelle.com/For more information about host Joey Owen, visit http://www.joeyowencoaching.com/Read more about The Coach's Journey at www.thecoachsjourney.com.Music by My Good Man William: listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/4KmeQUcTbeE31uFynHQLQgTo support the Coach's Journey, visit www.patreon.com/thecoachsjourney and to join the Coach's Journey Community visit www.thecoachsjourney.com/community.

Katie Paris met Jennifer at the gym. It's a gym of mostly women, where encouragement and high-fives are the norm and pull-ups are celebrated alongside wins for reproductive rights. But neither woman could have predicted that their gym friendship would lead to Jennifer co-creating a TroubleNation group called Hope In The Heights that now has more than 400 members! And still, Jennifer considers herself “humanitarian” rather than “political.” She says it's just about doing the right thing so that we're all able to live up to our potential.We can find friends — and fellow TroubleMakers — in every part of our lives. For many women, the gym is a place of community and strength. Jennifer says the women she's met there, and in Hope in the Heights, have helped her work through the anger and grief over last year's election. Now they're getting together every month to fight extremism and bring hope back to Ohio.“You're going to lose your shit,” Jennifer says. “And it's okay! Feel the fear and do it anyway.”For a transcript of this episode, please email comms@redwine.blue. You can learn more about us at www.redwine.blue or follow us on social media!

Theologian Miroslav Volf reflects on solitude, loneliness, and how being alone can reveal our humanity, selfhood, and relationship with God.This episode is part 1 of a 5-part series, SOLO, which explores the theological, moral, and psychological dimensions of loneliness, solitude, and being alone.“Solitude brings one back in touch with who one is—it's how we stabilize ourselves so we know how to be ourselves with others.”Macie Bridge welcomes Miroslav for a conversation on solitude and being oneself—probing the difference between loneliness and aloneness, and the essential role of solitude in a flourishing Christian life. Reflecting on Genesis, the Incarnation, and the sensory life of faith, Volf considers how we can both embrace solitude and attend to the loneliness of others.He shares personal reflections on his mother's daily prayer practice and how solitude grounded her in divine presence. Volf describes how solitude restores the self before God and others: “Nobody can be me instead of me.” It is possible, he suggests, that we can we rediscover the presence of God in every relationship—solitary or shared.Helpful Links and ResourcesThe Cost of Ambition: How Striving to Be Better Than Others Makes Us WorseFyodor Dostoevsky, Crime and PunishmentRainer Maria Rilke, Book of Hours (Buch der Stunden)Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Creation and FallEpisode Highlights“Nobody can be me instead of me. And since I must be me, to be me well, I need times with myself.”“It's not good, in almost a metaphysical sense, for us to be alone. We aren't ourselves when we are simply alone.”“Solitude brings one back in touch with who one is—it's how we stabilize ourselves so we know how to be ourselves with others.”“Our relationship to God is mediated by our relationships to others. To honor another is to honor God.”“When we attend to the loneliness of others, in some ways we tend to our own loneliness.”Solitude, Loneliness, and FlourishingThe difference between solitude (constructive aloneness) and loneliness (diminishment of self).COVID-19 as an amplifier of solitude and loneliness.Volf's experience of being alone at Yale—productive solitude without loneliness.Loneliness as “the absence of an affirming glance.”Aloneness as essential for self-reflection and renewal before others.Humanity, Creation, and RelationshipAdam's solitude in Genesis as an incomplete creation—“It is not good for man to be alone.”Human beings as fundamentally social and political.A newborn cannot flourish without touch and gaze—relational presence is constitutive of personhood.Solitude and communion exist in dynamic tension; both must be rightly measured.Jesus's Solitude and Human ResponsibilityJesus withdrawing to pray as a model of sacred solitude.Solitude allows one to “return to oneself,” guarding against being lost in the crowd.The danger of losing selfhood in relationships, “becoming echoes of the crowd.”God, Limits, and OthersEvery other person as a God-given limit—“To honor another is to honor God.”Violating others as transgressing divine boundaries.True spirituality as respecting the space, limit, and presence of the other.Touch, Senses, and the ChurchThe sensory dimension of faith—seeing, touching, being seen.Mary's anointing of Jesus as embodied gospel.Rilke's “ripe seeing”: vision as invitation and affirmation.The church as a site of embodied presence—touch, seeing, listening as acts of communion.The Fear of Violation and the Gift of RespectLoneliness often born from fear of being violated rather than from lack of company.Loving another includes honoring their limit and respecting their freedom.Practical Reflections on LonelinessQuestions Volf asks himself: “Do I dare to be alone? How do I draw strength when I feel lonely?”The paradox of social connection in a digital age—teenagers side by side, “completely disconnected.”Love as sheer presence—“By sheer being, having a loving attitude, I relieve another's loneliness.”The Spiritual Discipline of SolitudeVolf's mother's daily hour of morning prayer—learning to hear God's voice like Samuel.Solitude as the ground for transformation: narrating oneself before God.“Nobody can die in my place… nobody can live my life in my place.”Solitude as preparation for love and life in community.About Miroslav VolfMiroslav Volf is the Henry B.

How Can We Be Born Again? Through the One Raised from the Dead. MESSAGE SUMMARY: Today, we delve into the profound mystery of the Holy Spirit and its vital role in our Christian walk. We're reminded that it's not just about having the Holy Spirit, but allowing the Spirit to have us - to lead and guide our lives. The message emphasizes three key sins against the Holy Spirit: grieving, quenching, and blaspheming. When we choose bitterness over love, or hold onto unforgiveness, we grieve the Spirit. Every time we sin, we quench the Spirit's flow in our lives. Yet, there's hope in confession, which reopens the floodgates of the Spirit's presence. This teaching challenges us to examine our hearts: Are we truly yielding to the Spirit's guidance? Are we living holy lives that honor God? It's a call to deeper surrender and a reminder of our constant need for the Spirit's empowering presence in our faith journey.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, I now take a deep breath and stop. So often I miss your hand and gifts in my life because I am preoccupied and anxious. Grant me the power to pause each day and each week to simply rest in your arms of love. In Jesus' name, amen.    Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 132). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that, because I am in Jesus Christ, I will not be a complainer (Philippians 2:14). “I can do everything through Him who gives me strength.”. (Philippians 4:14).

Start Your Transformation Now  In this episode of The Jim Fortin Podcast, Jim invites listeners to look beyond the noise of global division and fear to discover what it truly means to be the solution instead of adding to the chaos. He explores how humanity's turmoil stems from low-frequency emotions like fear, control, and ego—and how conscious awareness and self-mastery can elevate both the individual and collective vibration.  Jim shares how old societal structures are collapsing, why that's not a crisis but a sign of evolution, and how each of us has a role to play in guiding humanity into higher consciousness. Through stories from his mentors, like Don Javier and Akio Matsumura, he illustrates that self-awareness, empathy, and frequency management are not spiritual luxuries—they are responsibilities for those who came here to lead and heal.  If you're ready to stop reacting to fear and start leading with awareness, this episode will show you how to become a stabilizing force in a chaotic world—and a light for others who have forgotten who they are.  What You'll Discover in This Episode:  Why chaos dominates our world (02:10) Jim explains how fear and division feed off each other and why humanity's turmoil is an invitation to evolve, not a punishment.  Becoming the stabilizer (06:22) You are here to bring calm to confusion—Jim shares why leadership begins with mastering your own emotions and frequency.  Seeing through another's eyes (12:45) The powerful lesson from diplomat Akio Matsumura that transformed how Jim views empathy, politics, and healing global divisions.  The physics of frequency (18:30) How thought creates emotion, emotion creates vibration, and vibration determines your frequency—and the free resource that helps you shift it.  Why you chose to be here now (24:11) Jim reveals why you incarnated in this turbulent time and how to fulfill your role as a light worker and healer on the planet.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  You came to this planet not to drown in chaos, but to calm it. Every moment you choose peace over fear, awareness over reaction, and love over division, you raise the collective frequency of humanity. Being the solution begins with self-awareness—knowing that your vibration shapes the world around you. When you master your inner world, you automatically become the lighthouse others seek in the storm.    Let's Connect:  Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE?  If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

In this week's session, I shared how artificial intelligence is reshaping the way we grow and lead in business. Technology is advancing faster than ever, but success isn't about keeping pace—it's about using these tools with purpose. When we let AI handle the repetitive work, we free ourselves to focus on what truly matters: creativity, empathy, and human connection. The goal isn't to replace people, but to empower them to do more meaningful work. The future belongs to leaders who scale smarter, not harder—those who use technology to serve people better, build stronger relationships, and create lasting impact.
