From seven students in a living room to educating over 2,400 students across multiple campuses, Dr. Charles Yeboah's journey building International Community School (ICS) is a masterclass in entrepreneurial patience and purpose. When he and his wife returned to Ghana after studying in America, they faced a common challenge: finding suitable education for their daughter. Their solution? Create it themselves; starting right in their living room.What sets this story apart is Dr. Yeboah's counterintuitive approach to success. "Black people in general have the habit of acting successful before they are actually successful," he observes, explaining how he deliberately avoided this trap. His family lived in four different rented homes over ten years while investing over $4 million in developing their school before building their own house. This disciplined reinvestment strategy, coupled with what he calls the "three H's", humility, honesty, and hard work, created the foundation for sustainable growth.The most audacious chapter came when ICS expanded from Kumasi to Accra in 2015, challenging established international schools in Ghana's capital. Dr. Yeboah's strategy of differentiation through campus design, teacher development, and educational quality paid off; the Accra campus now serves more students than the original Kumasi location. With total investments exceeding $30 million from an initial capital of just $20,000-$30,000, ICS demonstrates the power of patient capital and principle-centered leadership.Today, as ICS celebrates its 25th anniversary, Dr. Yeboah is focused on extending his impact through the Education Foundation, committed to improving teacher development in public schools. His philosophy, "I don't want to die rich," reflects a profound understanding that true success comes from giving back to the society that enabled your rise. Want to build something that truly lasts? Start by remembering where you came from and who helped you along the way.Support the showWatch the video episode of this on YouTube - https://linktr.ee/konnectedminds

Critical Infrastructure software lacks the strict liability standards found in industries like automotive manufacturing, leading to minimal accountability for insecure products when they get exploited.  Alex Santos, CEO of Fortress Information Security, explains how they're typically hired by buyers of ICS equipment—such as utilities—to assess and mitigate supply chain risks, including working with OEMs to improve security.

“Every mammal on this planet, instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment. But you humans do not. You move to an area and you multiply- and multiply until every natural resource is consumed. The only way you can survive is to spread to another area.” – The Matrix Hugo Weaving's Mr. Smith lectures Lawrence Fishburne's Morpheus in The Matrix on humanity's fatal flaw. While history may paint a negative picture of our efforts, the future looks bright. That future is sustainability, a paradigm shift that promises to reshape our relationship with the environment and the resources we consume. This vision of sustainability is not just about preserving nature; it's about creating a healthier, more resilient world for future generations. The components of sustainability in the tech world include energy efficiency, waste reduction, water conservation, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, sustainable product design, and employee engagement. Energy efficiency: companies can optimize manufacturing processes to reduce energy consumption and developing products that are more energy-efficient to cut down operational costs and reduce the impact on the environmental impact. Waste reduction: comprehensive recycling programs, reducing material usage, and improving manufacturing processes, companies can minimize the environmental footprint of their operations and products. Water conservation: Implementing measures to recycle and reuse water to a point where every drop could be recaptured and reused. Reducing greenhouse gas emissions: This is where the bulk of the efforts can yield real benefits to lower carbon footprints, and reduce/reuse/recycle with ambitious goals of net-zero by 2040. Sustainable product design: there is a fine balance between creating energy-efficient and environmentally friendly products that meet regulatory standards and customer expectations, while also generating a reasonable rate of return for stakeholders. Employee engagement: Encouraging employees to participate in sustainability programs and providing training and resources to support those practices keep the environment front of mind while also pursuing the business of business. One company that exemplifies these principles is Microchip Technology. Their commitment to sustainability is evident in their comprehensive approach, known as Microchip 360° Sustainability. This includes energy efficiency, waste reduction, water conservation, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Their products, such as the PD77728 and PD-70228 ICs, are designed with the lowest power consumption in mind, and their packaging is 100% recyclable, PVC-free, halogen-free, and compliant with ROHS and REACH standards. The GS series of midspans takes this even further with improvements in key areas. Microchip's dedication to sustainability has not gone unnoticed. Forbes recently named them a Net Zero Leader, ranking them #6 on the list. This recognition highlights their leadership in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promoting sustainable practices. Companies like Microchip are taking real, tangible actions to protect the environment, conserve resources, and minimize waste.   How can Microchip Technology show real leadership in driving sustainability for future generations?   Links from the episode: Microchip's Commitment to Sustainability: Operational Excellence and Innovative Customer Solutions | Microchip Technology microchip.com/poe   Guest: Alan Zwiren

Today, it is a pleasure to have a special guest, Geir Kjosavik, joining us to discuss precisely why Nordic Semiconductor, a fabless semiconductor company that has a long track record and legacy in designing ultra-low-power wireless solutions, made the move towards power management ICs, or PMICs.  The increasing popularity of battery-operated devices, often characterized by a complex power tree that includes smartphones, hearables, wearables, IoT devices, and other complex portable equipment, has, in turn, driven up the demand for PMICs.   In this episode, we'll explore exactly why Nordic Semiconductor entered the PMIC business in 2021 and how they increased their market share. We'll also discuss what a PMIC is, why companies might want to consider integrating one, and precisely how Nordic's PMIC portfolio is different from existing solutions in the marketplace.

As eleições do ano passado já tinham dado todos os sinais de que o sistema bipartidário tinha mudado ou estava mesmo a mudar de forma decisiva.

Today on the podcast, I'm joined by two incredible guests: Mike Hruby (https://x.com/venturemike1) and Kim Kavin (https://x.com/thekimkavin). Mike is a seasoned advocate for independent work and entrepreneurship, while Kim is a respected journalist and a passionate voice for freelancers' rights. Together, we dive deep into the alarming developments happening right now in New Jersey, where the state Labor Department has proposed a new independent-contractor rule that could drastically restrict the freedom of an estimated 1.7 million people who work as independent contractors, freelancers, self-employed individuals, and gig economy drivers for companies like Uber and DoorDash.   This episode unpacks what's really at stake. While the proposed policies are being framed as protections, what the proposed NJDOL rule states is that it will not create any jobs. The fear is that ICs get wiped out and are left with nothing. that would strip people of the flexibility, autonomy, and control that make independent work so vital. Mike and Kim explain how similar policy-making. has played out in other states, and why this movement could have nationwide implications. It's a critical conversation for anyone who values the freedom to choose how and when they work.   Kim Kavin: https://www.freelancebusting.com/ Mike Hruby https://www.newjobsamerica.com/   Rideshare Rodeo Brand & Podcast: https://linktr.ee/RideshareRodeo

HEALTH NEWS   ·         Eating avocados during pregnancy associated with lower food allergy risk in baby Six new studies point to red raspberry's potential anti-inflammatory properties ·         Better physical health probably follows religious and spiritual engagement, rather than vice versa ·         Tomato and fruit juice improve quality of life for kids with asthma ·         Discover how parsley helps to fight cancer ·         Eating ultra processed foods may speed up early signs of Parkinson's disease   Eating avocados during pregnancy associated with lower food allergy risk in baby University of Eastern Finland, May 7, 2025 (Eurekalert)   An observational study among 2,272 mother-child pairs in Finland found that infants had 44% lower odds of developing food allergies at 12 months if their mother consumed fresh avocado during pregnancy, after adjusting for other lifestyle, delivery, and maternal health factors. This is the first published study to link avocados in the maternal diet to a lower risk of infant food allergies—a growing public health concern that affects nearly one in 13 children, or roughly two in every classroom.   Researchers analyzed data collected as part of the Kuopio Birth Cohort (KuBiCo). Participants who reported eating any avocado (>0 grams) in either trimester were defined as avocado consumers, and non-consumers were those who did not report consuming any avocado in either trimester. Infant allergic outcomes, including rhinitis, paroxysmal wheezing, eczema, and food allergy, were evaluated at 12-months of age. After adjusting for factors food allergy was found to be significantly higher in infants of non-avocado consumers (4.2%) versus avocado consumers (2.4%).    Six new studies point to red raspberry's potential anti-inflammatory properties   Various Universities, May 2, 2025 (Medical Xpress)   Initial findings from six animal model studies reveal the potential effects of red raspberry consumption on cardiovascular disease risk reduction, maintaining normal blood glucose levels and liver function as well as potential anti-inflammatory effects related to bone health.   Cardiovascular University of Michigan observed potential benefits of red raspberry intake on obesity-prone rats.   Metabolic Syndrome Washington State University noted positive effects of red raspberry consumption on metabolic syndrome in male mice with diet-induced obesity. Oregon State University studied the effects of red raspberries in mice fed a high-fat, high-sugar Western diet.   Diabetes Texas A&M University reported positive effects of red raspberry consumption on diabetes-related complications and heart disease in obese diabetic mice.   Liver Function Oregon State University noted raspberry's capacity for ellagic acid quercetin to bind to the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPARa).   Inflammation and Bone Health Texas Woman's University observed anti-inflammatory effect of polyphenols in red raspberries in the production of osteoclasts, the cells associated with the breakdown of bone.     Better physical health probably follows religious and spiritual engagement, rather than vice versa University of Miami, May 7, 2025 (PLoS One)   Better physical health probably follows religious and spiritual engagement, rather than vice versa, per six year longitudinal U.S. study aiming to tease out this relationship Religious and spiritual (R/S) engagement is generally associated with better health. However, it is not known which comes first between R/S engagement and health due to a lack of longitudinal studies. We examined this issue in a sample assessed six years apart. We examined the measurement invariance and reciprocal relationships of R/S engagement and self-rated physical health (SRH) at two timepoints (six years apart). We then assessed whether the strength of their relationships with each other differed.   Our findings demonstrate that religious and spiritual engagement predicts better self-rated physical health six years later, whereas better SRH does not significantly predict future R/S engagement.   Tomato and fruit juice improve quality of life for kids with asthma King Mongkut's Institute of Technology (Thailand), May 7, 2025 (News Medical) In a recent study published in the journal BMC Nutrition, researchers evaluated the effects of an antioxidant-rich diet on asthma outcomes in children. In the present study, researchers examined clinical outcomes, pulmonary function, and serum antioxidant levels in asthmatic children in Thailand. Participants were randomized to the intervention or control group. The control group received conventional usual care, whereas the intervention group received usual care and mixed fruit and tomato juices. Further, serum antioxidants (ascorbic acid, lycopene, and beta-carotene) were measured. In sum, the consumption of tomato and mixed-fruit juices for eight weeks improved asthma symptom control and quality of life in children. Serum beta-carotene increased within the intervention group, though this was not significantly different compared to controls. However, pulmonary function, ICS usage, and between-group antioxidant levels were unaffected by the intervention.   Discover how parsley helps to fight cancer University of Missouri, April 25, 2025 (NaturalHealth365) Research published in Oncotarget  detailed for the how apigenin in parsely slows and halts the production of the enzyme IKKa, which is behind the growth and progression of cancer. The scientists concluded that apigenin has a profound ability to slow cancer progression or stop it altogether.   In addition to these results, combined apigenin with green tea successfully treats colon cancer and the University of Missouri researchers found apigenin was effective against breast cancer and killed as much as 86 percent of lung cancer cells. Parsley is an excellent source of carotenoids, which protect against cancer-causing cell damage. Additionally, it's considered a “chemoprotective” food due to its ability to protect healthy tissues in the body from the toxic effects of many cancer treatments or drugs. As a powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties – and its rich source of vitamins A, C, E, beta-carotene, chlorophyll, fiber, lutein, zeaxanthin, folate and cryptoxanthin. It's also packed with a higher concentration of vitamin K than kale.   Eating ultra processed foods may speed up early signs of Parkinson's disease Fudan University (China), May 7, 2025 (Eurekalert) People who eat more ultra processed foods like cold breakfast cereal, cookies and hot dogs are more likely to have early signs of Parkinson's disease when compared to those who eat very few ultra processed foods. Researchers looked for signs of prodromal Parkinson's disease, which is the earliest stage, when neurodegeneration begins, but more characteristic symptoms of Parkinson's disease, like tremors, balance problems and slow movement, have not yet begun. These early symptoms can begin years or even decades before the typical symptoms start. The study included 42,853 people with an average age of 48 who did not have Parkinson's disease at the start of the study. They were followed up to 26 years. After adjusting for factorsg, researchers found that participants who ate 11 or more servings of ultra processed foods per day had a 2.5-fold higher likelihood of having three or more early signs of Parkinson's disease compared to those consuming fewer than three servings per day. When looking at individual early signs of Parkinson's disease, researchers also found that eating more ultra processed foods was tied to an increased risk for nearly all symptoms except constipation.

It's the charity's biggest fundraising event and aims to raise millions of euros to support cancer patients and progress cancer research. In this episode, Kathy Sheridan is joined by Daffodil Day Ambassador Tara Doonan, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2022 at 36 years-old.

Amy Nolan, Director of Clinical Affairs at ICS also joins the conversation to explain how the charity supports patients financially and what needs to change in order to limit costs for those undergoing treatment. But first Irish Times podcast presenter Bernice Harrison is here to discuss some of the biggest stories of the week including a frightening encounter at a Dublin hotel for influencer Chloe Koyce, the harassment of a University of Limerick student at her campus accommodation and the latest in the rumoured feud between Gwyneth Paltrow and Meghan Markle.

How do you build a thriving business while staying true to its legacy? Lauren Dunkle, owner of The Pet Lady, shares how she transformed her aunt's long-standing pet care business into her own while honoring its foundation. She opens up about the struggles of hiring and staff turnover, the transition from independent contractors to employees, and the power of clearly defined roles and SOPs. Lauren also discusses the emotional challenges of business ownership, from self-doubt to burnout, and how she reignited her passion by embracing new learning opportunities. Her story is a powerful example of how growth, structure, and personal fulfillment can coexist in a pet care business. Main topics: Hiring Challenges & Staff Turnover Transitioning from ICs to Employees Defining Roles & SOPs Balancing Growth & Legacy Staying Engaged as an Owner Main takeaway: “The lessons you learn as a business owner are things you'll never expect, but they shape you. It's overwhelming in the moment, but if I hadn't gone through the struggles, I wouldn't have the business I have today.” Every challenge in business feels impossible in the moment—hiring struggles, staff turnover, client conflicts, financial uncertainty. But each of these hurdles teaches us something vital. Lauren Dunkle's journey proves that the toughest moments are often the ones that push us to grow the most. Instead of fearing the hard times, embrace them as part of the process. Every setback refines your vision, strengthens your leadership, and ultimately builds a business that can stand the test of time.
