To be honest, we never imagined we'd need to explain this. Fair warning: this episode gets a little nerdy.Over the last two episodes, we've talked about why we believe internal pelvic floor evaluation remains the gold standard in pelvic rehabilitation. This week, we're answering the obvious follow-up question:What do we actually gain from performing one?For those of us who were trained to perform internal evaluations—and who use them every day in practice—the value seems almost self-evident. It's become such a fundamental part of how we think, reason, and treat that we rarely stop to ask why. It's also where our profession has focused its education, research, and clinical training for more than 40 years.But recent conversations in our field have challenged us to step back and articulate something we've largely taken for granted.So that's exactly what we do in this episode.We break down the first principles of an internal pelvic floor evaluation: How it reduces uncertaintyImproves diagnostic accuracyHelps individualize treatmentIdentifies findings that might otherwise be missedGives patients understanding and validationThis is why the ability and willingness to perform an internal evaluation - when clinically relevant and with informed consent - has remained the gold standard in pelvic rehabilitation for decades.If you've ever struggled to explain why internal evaluation matters—or simply want to think more deeply about one of the defining skills of our profession—this episode is for you.International Continence Society PaperIn the episode we mention a paper from the ICS that was extremely helpful in listing out many of the areas where we gain information, specificity or new information.

I've seen a pattern of senior ICs deciding to quit to bet on themselves, but we rarely get to see what it took to get there.Julia Fei, Sr. Data Scientist at Notion (and my dear creator friend), just made her decision to leave her dream job to pursue something she's always been curious about. But it was a calculated, deliberate decision that she spent years preparing for.In this week's episode of Office Drama, we reveal the inner drama of Julia's thought process and the conversations she's had navigating the transition.In this ep, we talk about:→ why Julia quit Notion when she genuinely loved her team, her manager, and her job→ how to know if you're actually growing or just getting comfortable→ why "stability" is a scam→ the double life of being a creator in tech→ how to build a financial runway for the leap before you're ready to take it→ and how to know when it's finally time to take a risk on yourselfThis episode is for anyone who has done everything right and still felt like they were playing it too safe. Julia is one of the most calculated, self-aware people I know and watching her finally bet on herself after years of preparation is exactly the kind of story I started this show to tell.→ Find Julia:https://www.linkedin.com/in/juliafei/https://www.youtube.com/@juliafeihttps://www.instagram.com/julia.fei/https://www.tiktok.com/@julia.feiSubmit your Coworker Confessions

In this episode, a seasoned design executive shares what it really means to be a good corporate citizen, why design isn't the center of the universe, and how to show up differently.What if the biggest thing holding your career back isn't your design skills? What if it's the way you think about your role inside the organization?My guest today has spent years leading design within large, complex organizations—places like Truist, 3M, and Rocket—where designers are easily outnumbered by scientists, engineers, marketers, and businesspeople. He's navigated financial realities most ICs never consider, managed situations that don't appear in any design curriculum, and had to advocate for design without assuming it's automatically the most important thing in the room. The conversation we had is one I've been wanting to have for a long time.We got into what it actually means to be a "good corporate citizen," not in a corporate buzzword kind of way, but in a real, practical sense. We talked about the perception gap between how designers see themselves and how the rest of the team experiences working with them, why designers are sometimes seen as a speed bump instead of an accelerant, and what it looks like when someone on your team finally gets it. We also got into design systems as a business asset, the realities of design leadership that ICs rarely see, and a concept I've been thinking about for years: followership.If you've ever walked out of a meeting frustrated, dissented in the Slack channel instead of raising your hand in the room, or wondered why your work isn't getting the traction it deserves, this episode is for you. Hit play.Topics:• 03:58 - Andy's origin story: raising his hand at 3M• 05:30 - "Design wasn't the center of the corporate universe, it was a contributor to success."• 09:32 - Defining corporate citizenship• 11:15 - Why design education sets us up on the wrong foot• 13:25 - The two disconnects: hallway dissent and the speed bump perception• 17:22 - What it actually feels like to work with a designer who doesn't get it• 19:00 - Stop playing defense on ROI: start pointing to the metrics the org is already tracking• 21:10 - What a mature designer looks like: signals Andy watches for• 24:10 - Pair prompting with PMs and building relationships through AI tools• 26:00 - "You can't build great software without great relationships"• 29:19 - Design systems as a moat for the organization• 37:05 - Treating your design system like a portfolio piece vs. a business asset• 40:52 - What ICs fundamentally misunderstand about leadership• 44:00 - Context switching and the emotional weight of being a design exec• 47:55 - The case for async feedback: never wait for the one-on-one• 51:05 - Followership: having a point of view and showing up with swagger• 53:45 - The Sully Sullenberger story: "my cockpit"• 55:00 - "Own your shit."Helpful Links:• Connect with Andy on LinkedIn—Thanks for listening!

Der Gründer von Oracle Larry Ellison nutzt seit Jahrzehnten Wertpapierkredite, um andere Investments zu finanzieren. Auch andere Milliardäre wie Elon Musk nutzen Wertpapierkredite. Auch Manager mit relevanten Aktienpaketen nutzen nicht selten die Option von Wertpapierkrediten. Auch als Privatanleger gibt es diese Option. Dahinter steht die folgende Idee: das bestehende Portfolio wird als Sicherheit verwendet, um sich Kapital zu leihen und dieses Kapital wird dann in weitere Wertpapiere investiert. Wertpapierkredite für Privatanleger sind bei den richtigen Brokern günstiger als jede durchschnittliche Immobilienfinanzierung. In dieser Folge besprechen wir die Chancen und Risiken von Wertpapierkrediten und schauen uns ganz konkret ein Beispiel mit einem 500.000 Euro Portfolio an. Wir besprechen auch, warum Milliardäre regelmäßig mit Wertpapierkrediten arbeiten. Am Ende der Folge gebe ich auch eine klare Empfehlung, ob ich Wertpapierkredite für Privatanleger empfehlen kann.

Water: It's essential to life, but it can also cause devastation during severe weather. Brooke Gunderson, BSN, RN recounts the overwhelming flooding and infrastructure failure that she experienced as an emergency room nurse during Hurricane Helene in Boone, North Carolina. The extreme conditions, which included the loss of power and water, forced families and the health care providers to improvise just to meet basic needs. In the aftermath, the experience reshaped her perspective on preparedness, resilience, and the importance of community during disasters. Brooke Gunderson, BSN, RN is an emergency room nurse, mother of two daughters, and wife to a Sports Medicine physician. She now lives in Cookeville, Tennessee after recently relocating from Boone, North Carolina, where she witnessed the impact of Hurricane Helene as it moved through the Appalachian community.

In this episode of the ICS Podcast, we explore how botulinum toxin (BoNT‑A) injection techniques for overactive bladder (OAB) are evolving—and why injection location, depth, and template may matter more than ever.Hosted by Juan Peñafiel and Shannon Wallace, the discussion brings together two internationally recognised experts: Benoit Peyronnet (Urologist) and Michael Kennelly (Neurourologist). Together, they examine the growing evidence behind trigonal and trigone‑sparing injection strategies, challenging long‑held dogmas around reflux risk and urinary retention.Key topics include:Why and when to consider trigonal or predominantly trigonal injection templatesHow injection depth, volume, and number of sites influence outcomesStrategies to reduce the risk of urinary retention while maintaining efficacyDifferences in approach for idiopathic vs neurogenic OABPractical tips for training, technique, and tailoring treatment to individual patientsThe conversation also reflects on gaps in the current evidence base, what future trials are still needed, and how clinicians can safely adapt their practice today.

In this episode, Dave and Jamison answer these questions: I work at a large remote company. We meet up once or twice a year. I don't really know much about my engineering coworkers aside from the 5 people on my team, so the in person meet ups seem like a good place for me to get to know people from the other teams. I am a career switcher, and am currently a mid level IC (borderline junior) in my late 30s and a youthful appearance. At these meetups, my position and appearance (and honestly, possibly my demeanour) makes me feel like I am expected to socialize with other ICs in their 20s. Although they are nice people I find it hard to relate to them when talking about non work related topics since I am much older and in a different stage in life than all of them, (married with a mortgage and kids). I want to socialize with coworkers closer to my age and stage in life but most of them are team leads or manager. I feel like socializizing with them would be seen as brown nosing. I've also heard that once someone is a manager, it is very hard for them to befriend ICs because they are now their boss, and that they mostly befriend other managers. My previous career had little management/corporate politics type stuff, so I don't know if this is true. Would I be hurting myself by doing this? Am I over thinking this? Would I be fine socializing with whomever I want? Do you have any words or advice regarding my situation? Thanks! Hi Dave and Jamison, Before you tell me to quit my job, hear me out. I have worked in technology for about 30 years. I've been at the same company for the past 20 years, but I've changed roles many times to keep work interesting. I have enjoyed learning new technologies while working in development, architecture, system administration, management, vendor relations, and more. This has been very beneficial to my career, and I appreciate all the opportunities to grow. I've earned a good reputation and am well respected by my peers. I've proven my worth to leadership many times over by reducing expenses by many millions and creating innovative solutions to improve efficiencies. I work for corporate America in the insurance/finance industry, which is generally considered to be led by cold, heartless, power-hungry mongers, a stereotype that probably has a few exceptions but is generally not incorrect. I've never appreciated this industry's business practices, but I've had to make a living over the years, so here I am. I am finally at my breaking point and am absolutely fed up with how employees, customers, and communities are treated by my industry. Because of this, I just cannot find value in my work. I've been beaten down over the years and am tired of being exploited by management. I no longer volunteer to take on big projects, and instead of being someone who outshines others, I have decided to settle for mediocrity. I'm planning to retire in a few years and honestly don't have the energy or desire to search for another, potentially more meaningful, industry to work in, especially in the current job market. I genuinely care about many of the people I work with. Very few of them are in it to climb the corporate ladder. Most are just trying to earn enough money to pay the mortgage, feed their children, care for aging parents, and hope to have enough leftover for their own retirement. How do I not leave a wake of malaise for my peers when I leave but also not help feed the beast until then?

SAG-AFTRA's first collective bargaining agreement for intimacy coordinators took effect on Feb. 22, marking a watershed moment for a profession that didn't exist 15 years ago. The contract establishes industry-wide standards for the professionals who safeguard performers during intimate scenes. But what exactly does an intimacy coordinator do, and why does this agreement matter for every performer working today? We spoke with Alicia Rodis, Chair of the Intimacy Coordinator Negotiating Committee and a working IC whose credits include And Just Like That, The Gilded Age, and The Last Mrs. Parrish. Alicia discusses the critical protections now guaranteed under the agreement. She also addresses performer concerns about working with ICs and makes the case for why these professionals protect not just the performers in intimate scenes, but the entire crew. **The views expressed by guests are their own and do not necessarily reflect the views of their organization or SAG-AFTRA.

In this episode, Dave and Jamison answer these questions: How can I get our company to follow the law and stop sending SPAM without being regarded as negative? We're sending out emails that don't comply with CAN-SPAM, and I think we should comply due to the risks, but I don't want to risk any blowback! People want the emails to look more ‘human' sent, and putting your mailing address at the end of an email is not very human, so we're not doing that… It's a medium startup (500 people), but I'm close enough to the marketing work that they might know it was me! Should I send an email to our general consul? How can I raise concerns and do the right thing without being regarded as not a team player?? How do I stay motivated on a team that's always sick? I'm on a team of 3 ICs and one manager. The other two ICs are plagued by health issues. I am trying to be empathetic, but this has been going on for the at least a year. One of them regularly takes sick days, often turning into sick weeks. The other has a long term issue and regularly does half days. This affects our ability to produce results, but we don't have a PM and don't really have deadlines given the nature of our work, so it's not really noticed. I feel like we are moving a lot slower than we could be, and when we do check-ins on our goals at the end of each quarter, we maybe only hit like 50% of our goals. To me it's quite obvious why we don't hit our goals, but everyone else seems to be surprised by it. My manager can't manage with enough rigor to produce results. I've brought this up to them before (our goal misses, not teammates being sick), but nothing seems to change. As the only seemingly-healthy member of the team, there's no incentive to work more than the bare minimum. I feel like I should be taking more sick days! This is very demotivating and I feel like I'm stagnating. How would you all approach this situation? Should I also suddenly have health issues? Is this actually a blessing in disguise and I should make the most of it? Show Notes https://overcast.fm/+ABLmzfhZxak

Serval is one of the fastest-growing AI-native enterprise software companies right now, and this episode is a rare inside look at the deliberate architectural, go-to-market, and talent decisions behind that growth. Jake Stauch breaks down why he made the contrarian bet to build a full system of record rather than layer on top of existing tools, why ITSM is more vulnerable to AI disruption than CRM, ERP, or HRIS, and how Serval is winning Fortune 500 deals against a $14B incumbent with a fraction of the resources. Beyond the product, Jake gets into the organizational decisions that underpin Serval's velocity — why recruiting is the #1 job of every employee, how to prevent talent bar decay as you scale from 8 to 200 people, and how the role of the manager is shifting as ICs own more scope than ever. Threading it all together is a founder's honest account of what it means to build a horizontal software company when the models are improving, the infrastructure is shifting, and the window to displace a legacy incumbent is open but won't stay open forever. (0:00) Intro (1:25) What is Serval?
