Con Félix Enrique Arias

Our guest in this episode is Dawid Naude, the visionary founder and CEO of Pathfinder, an AI accelerator dedicated to helping businesses boost employee productivity, drive breakthrough innovation, and cultivate a sustainable AI culture. Dawid's passion lies in leveraging AI to free us from mundane tasks and enhance our uniquely human capabilities.In our chat, Dawid shared how AI can truly liberate us from daily drudgery, making way for more meaningful work and deeper human connection. He also brilliantly explained that AI's real power isn't in simple prompts but in having a genuine conversation with it.Key points discussed include:* AI as a liberator: Dawid emphasizes how AI can free us from low-level tasks, allowing for greater focus on skilled work.* Conversational AI: The true value of AI lies in dynamic dialogue, not just one-off questions and answers.* Human connection amplified: AI enables us to be more human by removing tedious tasks and fostering deeper understanding.Listen to the podcast to find out more.Innovabiz Substack is a reader-supported publication.

Are robots coming for our jobs? Is technology making us less human? These are the kinds of questions that often swirl around the conversation. But what if we told you that AI isn't here to replace us, but to liberate us? What if it's the key to unlocking a future where we're more productive, more creative, and yes, even more connected?This was the incredibly inspiring message from our recent Innova.buzz guest, Dawid Naude, the founder and CEO of Pathfinder. Dawid isn't just building an AI accelerator; he's on a mission to reshape how businesses and individuals embrace this powerful technology, focusing intently on the human side of AI adoption and creating a sustainable AI culture. His vision is refreshingly optimistic: AI's true power lies in its ability to strip away the "drudgery" of our daily tasks, freeing us up to do the really important, human work.Beyond the Classroom: Revolutionizing Learning and Critical ThinkingThink about it: how much of your day is spent on low-level activities, tasks you mastered years ago, or even back in university? Dawid sees this as a profound opportunity. AI can shoulder that mundane burden, allowing us to flex our highly developed skills. But his excitement truly ignites when he talks about education. Imagine every student having a 24/7 mentor, a personalized teacher available at their own pace, in their own language. For those with learning difficulties or language barriers, this isn't just convenient; it's a game-changer, leveling the playing field and opening up a world of possibilities.Now, I know what some of you might be thinking: won't all this AI make us lazy thinkers? Won't it erode our critical thinking skills? It's a valid concern, one I've wrestled with myself. But Dawid offers a compelling counter-narrative. Perhaps for some, it will make it easier to copy and paste. But what about those in the middle, those who struggle to follow complex work? Could AI actually elevate their understanding, pushing them beyond simple rote learning? And for those who are already critical thinkers, AI becomes an "absolute weapon," allowing them to test concepts, explore new topics, and identify blind spots with unprecedented speed and depth. It's like having an instant sounding board, helping you see all the holes in an argument you might have missed.The Art of Conversation: Prompting Beyond the Basic Q&AOne of Dawid's most profound insights is that the true magic of AI isn't in a single, perfectly crafted prompt. Forget prompt engineering as a rigid, one-shot deal for most of us. Instead, Dawid champions the idea of AI as a conversation partner. It's not about asking a question and getting the answer; it's about engaging in a dialogue, a back-and-forth riffing session where you can tweak, question, and refine the AI's responses. This conversational approach unlocks a much deeper level of value.So, how do we master this art? It's simpler than you think. Dawid suggests treating AI like a friend you want to challenge. Instead of asking, "Is this a good idea?" try, "Can you find 10 things wrong with this?" or "Tell me all the reasons for and against." This subtle shift in your interaction can transform the AI from a validation machine into a genuine sparring partner, pushing your thinking and helping you explore ideas from all angles. It's about being aware of the AI's inherent tendency to validate and actively instructing it to push back, to play devil's advocate.Navigating the Ethical Maze: Bias and the Human ElementThe question of bias in AI is a significant one, and Dawid delves into this with admirable honesty. He explains that AI has to be biased in some way; it has to give an answer that isn't always "it depends." The underlying training data, combined with carefully constructed "system prompts," shapes the AI's personality and guardrails. It's not malice, but a reflection of the data it's trained on and the rules its creators have set.This understanding is crucial. While we can ask AI to cite its sources and dig deeper, the ultimate responsibility for critical evaluation remains ours. We're used to searching for answers on Google, where we get sources to find the answer. With AI, we're often given the answer directly. Dawid wisely points out that this could lead to us delegating our thinking to a "20-kilometer radius in California," where most of these AI companies reside. It's a tricky balance, but one we must navigate by maintaining our own human judgment.AI in Action: Real-World Business TransformationsDawid's journey with Pathfinder has shown him just how rapidly the landscape of AI has evolved. What required complex, expensive integrations just 18 months ago can now often be achieved with off-the-shelf tools and clever prompting. He recounted a fascinating example of a small real estate company that, after some basic AI training, created their own custom GPTs for tasks like real estate listings and tenant communication. They even produced AI video avatars of their CEO providing market updates in multiple languages!This anecdote really drives home Dawid's belief: the true power lies in giving every employee an "everyday AI assistant." It's not about replacing roles, but about making each person incredibly productive by tackling the thousands of unstructured, copy-paste, back-and-forth activities that fill most of our days. When people discover how these tools can save them time and effort, their eyes light up. It's a genuine human connection to the technology because it directly improves their daily work life.The "Coffee Culture" of Connection: Why Humans Still RuleOne of my favorite analogies from our conversation was Dawid's take on coffee culture. He highlighted how, particularly here in Melbourne, we're happy to queue up, pay five times as much, and sometimes even get a "worse" coffee from a barista, even when a perfectly good, cheap, and consistent alternative exists from a machine. Why? Because it's human. This perfectly illustrates his point that despite the incredible efficiency of AI, our innate desire for human interaction and connection remains strong.AI is poised to rid us of the drudgery, giving us back time and mental space. And what will we do with that newfound freedom? Dawid believes it will allow us to be more authentic and human in our interactions. When we're not bogged down by tedious tasks, we can truly engage, empathize, and connect on a deeper level. The more human you are, the more effectively you'll be able to leverage this technology.Your Personal AI Journey: Taking the LeapSo, what's the takeaway from all this? Dawid's message is clear: dive in! The best gateway drug, as he puts it, is something like ChatGPT. Don't be intimidated; it's not hard to become an expert. You just need to be shown what's possible, and then start playing. He encourages everyone to grab the free version and get started.His unique call to action is brilliant: "Have ChatGPT interview you, and then afterwards, ask it to recommend the top 10 ways of how you should use ChatGPT." It's a meta-approach that lets the tool itself guide your learning journey, tailoring its advice to your specific needs and interests. What a clever way to begin your own AI adventure!It's been a truly fabulous conversation with Dawid Naude, packed with incredible insights. His perspective on AI as a human enabler rather than a threat is truly inspiring. We're not just talking about the future; we're living it, and with AI as our ally, that future looks incredibly bright.The Buzz - Our Innovation RoundHere are Dawid's answers to the questions of our innovation round. Listen to the conversation to get the full scoop.* Innovative AI with Human connection – Dawid saw a client use AI to understand a challenging client's perspective more deeply, and his wife uses it to create fairy tales that help their kids navigate difficult situations.* Best AI integration example – Dawid integrates AI and human connection by simply showing people how to use it to save time, do things they couldn't before, and even have fun with their families.* Differentiate with Connection – Dawid recommends using AI to understand people and industries more deeply, allowing for richer conversations and more impactful solutions.ActionDefinitely grab ChatGPT, even the free version! Then, tell it to interview you, and afterward, ask it to recommend the top 10 ways you should use ChatGPT to get started.Reach OutYou can reach out and thank Dawid on his LinkedIn, or for a deeper dive into AI, visit Startlearning.ai which redirects to Pathfinder's monthly public masterclass.Links:* Website - Pathfindr* LinkedIn* Speaker Profile* YouTube* Dawid's Other Podcast appearancesCool Things About Dawid* The Tech Optimist with a Conscience: Dawid isn't just a tech cheerleader; he's a responsible innovator who's willing to call out unethical practices and advocate for human-centered AI adoption.

Anna champions making technology, especially AI, accessible and genuinely useful for small business owners, always with a focus on reducing overwhelm and fostering authentic connections. In our chat, Anna shares her practical wisdom on how entrepreneurs can harness AI as a powerful tool without losing the essential human touch that truly matters in building lasting relationships and a thriving business.Key points discussed include:* AI as a Tool, Not a Replacement: Use AI strategically for back-office tasks, but always keep humans at the forefront of client interactions.* Guard Human Connection Fiercely: Implement AI in customer service with extreme care, ensuring transparency and easy access to human support.* Navigate AI Ethically and Practically: Stay informed about AI's capabilities and risks, using it to add value while protecting your brand and IP.Listen to the podcast to find out more.Innovabiz Substack is a reader-supported publication.

Fast forward to today, and we're deep in the trenches, moving beyond the mere novelty and into the serious business of practical application. The initial excitement was palpable, but now, as Anna Addoms wisely pointed out in our recent chat, we're navigating the "nitty gritty" – figuring out what AI is actually doing, whether it's truly adding value, and how to use it safely and effectively without getting lost down a "rabbit hole."Anna Addoms, with her characteristic clarity, cuts right to the chase: AI is fundamentally a tool, a multi-tool even. Think of it like a powerful chainsaw in your shed. In the right hands, with the right understanding, it can make incredibly light work of massive tasks. But if you're not careful, or if you don't really know how to wield it, you're just inviting a mess or unnecessary complexity. Our biggest goal, as entrepreneurs, should be to use AI to enhance our lives and businesses, to make things easier, and crucially, to still allow us to do what we do best: cultivate genuine human connections.Where AI Shines (and Where It Doesn't)So, where does this powerful multi-tool truly shine? Anna suggests focusing its considerable might on back-office tasks – those internal operations that often consume valuable time and energy. Picture those complex spreadsheet formulas that make your head spin; AI can whip those up in a flash. Or consider the initial drafts of long-form content, giving you a solid starting point without the blank page paralysis. The key here is using AI to shoulder a significant portion of the "heavy lifting," freeing you up for more strategic and human-centric work.But let's not get carried away. As Anna firmly reminds us, not every "low-level task can be farmed out" to AI. There are times when trying to force AI into a situation actually creates more complication than it solves. If a simple spreadsheet can organize your contact information, why complicate it by feeding it into an AI that might struggle with context? The wisdom lies in recognizing when AI is a genuine accelerator and when it's just an unnecessary detour.The Human Touch: Why Relationships Still RuleHere's where Anna's human-centered philosophy truly comes to the fore: AI should never, ever, replace genuine human connection. We've all been there – stuck in a frustrating recursive loop with a chatbot, feeling like we're talking to a brick wall. That "bad brain experience" doesn't just annoy customers; it actively "burns relationships." Anna is adamant: if you're deploying AI for customer service, there must be an immediate, clear escalation process to a real human. Without that "I wanna talk to a real human right now" button, you're essentially signing a death warrant for customer loyalty.It's not just about functionality; it's about authenticity. Anna points out the "uncanny valley" experience when AI voice technology gets too close to human, yet remains subtly "off." This creates a deep cognitive dissonance, a feeling of "something is wrong." Her advice is crystal clear: be transparency. If it's a bot, call it a bot. Don't give it a human name or picture. This ethical stance ensures trust, preventing your customers from feeling misled or, worse, "pissed off" because they couldn't escape an automated interaction.Building Your AI-Powered Personal Brand (Ethically!)Now, on a brighter note, AI can be an absolute boon for crafting and refining your personal brand's messaging. Anna herself has trained her AI to sound "exactly like me" for various content outputs – emails, sales pages, blog posts. This means she can generate initial drafts that are remarkably consistent with her unique voice and cadence. The magic, however, lies in the subsequent step: the human touch, the final edit. Anna emphasizes that she's always the "last person to see it," ensuring her "seal of approval" is on every piece of content that goes out. This blend of AI efficiency and human oversight is powerful.However, a crucial word of caution, something Anna highlighted with a stark anecdote: be incredibly mindful of data privacy and copyright when using AI tools. She shared a sobering example of authors inadvertently signing away their book copyrights by inputing their manuscripts into certain AI language models under their terms of service. It's like accidentally giving away your precious intellectual property to the public domain! Always, always read the fine print. Your content is your gold, so guard it fiercely.Mastering Your Workflow: AI as Your SOP SidekickLet's talk about a task many entrepreneurs dread: creating Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). We know we need them, especially when scaling and hiring, but the thought of documenting every little step can feel overwhelming. This is where AI truly shines as an unsung hero. As Anna explains, many new hires struggle not because they're incompetent, but because they lack clear, documented processes. You hand over a task, and then find yourself frustrated when it's not done exactly as you envisioned.Anna's practical solution? Leverage AI! She encourages entrepreneurs to use prompts that guide them step-by-step through the SOP creation process. Even better, you can feed it enough information, and it can draft the entire thing for you. This isn't about abdicating responsibility; it's about leveraging AI's ability to structure information logically, ensuring "everything starts coming back faster and exactly the way they want." It's also fantastic for critiquing existing SOPs, pointing out gaps or areas for improvement that your brain, so familiar with the process, might simply overlook.The Calendar Conundrum: Owning Your Time with (or Without) AIThe digital calendar, while a godsend for organization, can also be a silent saboteur of your precious time if not managed with an iron fist. Anna and I both share a strong sentiment about this: you must maintain boundaries around your calendar and your time. While AI scheduling tools offer undeniable convenience, there's a real danger of "abdicating ownership" of your most valuable asset. Suddenly, your days are a chaotic collage of back-to-back meetings with no breathing room, leading straight to burnout.Anna's advice echoes a hard-won truth: your time, your rules. Instead of giving people 24/7 access to your schedule, block out specific times for different types of meetings or, even better, for uninterrupted deep work. This isn't about being unapproachable; it's about being strategic and protecting your mental and physical well-being. Whether you use AI for scheduling or not, the principle remains: actively manage your calendar, don't let it manage you.Staying Savvy: Protecting Your Digital SelfIn this "wild west" of AI, staying vigilant about your digital footprint is paramount. Anna recommends a simple yet powerful defense: set up Google Alerts for your name and business. It sounds old school, but it's incredibly effective for catching any unauthorized use of your likeness or content. Knowing what's being published about you, or as you, is the first line of defense. It allows you to be proactive, as Anna herself experienced when a podcast interview went live earlier than planned.Beyond monitoring, be aware of the bigger picture. While malicious voice cloning of individuals like us isn't the prevalent issue yet (it's mostly targeting celebrities), the technology exists. The reality is, some risk is inherent when putting content on public platforms. However, understanding your rights – the ability to issue cease and desist orders and report malicious content – empowers you to act swiftly if your digital identity is ever compromised. In this evolving landscape, awareness is truly your strongest shield.Summary:Anna Addoms provided incredible insights into navigating the brave new world of AI. Her core message is simple yet profound: AI is a powerful tool, but it should always serve to enhance human connection, never replace it. She emphasized the critical need for transparency, especially when AI is client-facing, and highlighted the importance of guarding your intellectual property. Ultimately, AI offers immense potential for efficiency and automation in our businesses, but its successful implementation hinges on a clear, human-centered strategy.Reach OutYou can reach out and thank Anna by visiting her website.Links:* Website – Wicked Marvelous* Twitter – @WickedMarvelous* Linkedin* Facebook* Instagram - @wicked_marvelousCool Things About Anna* Anna grew up in Colorado in a family of entrepreneurs, right in the thick of the tech boom.

Our guest in this episode is Todd Starr, a marketing innovator and psychology enthusiast who helps businesses differentiate themselves through powerful strategy and human connection. In his insightful chat with host Jürgen Strauss, Todd shares his journey from learning with rock stars to guiding over 3,000 creative client projects, all while exploring the fast-evolving role of AI in business. Together, Todd and Jürgen unpack how mindset, empathy, and intentional use of technology shape modern marketing and meaningful progress.Key points discussed include:* Mindset Shapes Marketing Success: Todd highlights how our beliefs and inner narratives directly impact business growth and marketing confidence.* True Empathy Creates Connection: He shares how genuine empathy - really feeling others' pain - can help unlock client challenges and foster trust.* Thoughtful Integration of AI: Todd encourages using AI as a thought partner, not a replacement, stressing the need for human-centered innovation and creativity.This episode is a bubbly and humble reminder that technology shines brightest when it enhances - not replaces - our human spark and connection!Listen to the podcast to find out more.Show Notes from this episode with Todd StarrMarketing, Mindset, and Human Connection in the Age of AIThis is a fascinating conversation that sits at the intersection of marketing brilliance, deep psychology, and the ever-present rise of AI! Todd's approach is as much about human behaviour as it is about business strategy. Our discussion was a intriguing blend of practical marketing, the psychology of belief, and how we can leverage technology without losing our humanity. Let's dig into the big ideas Todd brought to the table!From the outset, Todd framed his mission beautifully: helping businesses market “better, faster, and easier on purpose.” But what really stood out was his view of marketing as an exercise in communication at scale - a process deeply tied to human beliefs, mindset, and connection. As we explored everything from lead generation to leveraging AI, it became clear that for Todd, impact starts in the brain before it ever meets a business plan.The Power of Mindset: How Our Beliefs Shape Our MarketingA recurring gem from Todd was that “whatever you say, your brain believes you.” This isn't just motivational fluff - it's the heart of why so many business owners get stuck. Whether you think you can improve your marketing or not, that belief will quickly become your reality. Todd's take: mindset isn't peripheral. It sits at the core of successful strategy, differentiation, and growth.It's easy to fall into patterns of self-limiting beliefs, especially in marketing where the feedback isn't always immediate. Todd highlighted how entrepreneurs often internalize stories from childhood (think: “Don't seek attention” or “Don't talk to strangers”) that then sabotage their efforts to put themselves out there. The best marketing strategies won't get off the ground if, deep down, we don't believe we deserve attention or success.Neuro-diversity and Resilient Thinking: Lessons from Dyslexic InnovatorsTodd's personal transparency about being dyslexic and possibly ADHD or autistic hit home. Far from seeing these as weaknesses, he credits his neuro-diversity for making him a big-picture thinker and ace problem-solver. There's a wonderful lesson here about reframing what we often consider “challenges” into superpowers.He drew inspiration from famous innovators like Alexander Graham Bell, Steve Jobs, and even Da Vinci - many of whom were neuro-diverse. Todd sees this connection as a catalyst for original thinking and resilience. As he says, “Dyslexic thinkers shape the world, and everyone else is just living in it.” That kind of outside-the-mold thinking isn't just helpful - it's essential for innovating in business and beyond.Unlearning Limiting Beliefs: Transactional Analysis and the Pebble in the ShoeWe dove into Todd's use of transactional analysis - a psychological framework that examines the “parent,” “adult,” and “child” states we carry from childhood into adulthood. These old patterns can trip us up, especially in areas like sales and networking. Todd gave the example of people carrying forward the childhood lesson, “Don't talk to strangers,” only to struggle with cold calls and networking later.His “pebble in the shoe” metaphor resonated deeply. When business owners ignore small problems or limiting beliefs, they eventually grow into full-blown roadblocks. Sometimes, all it takes is the courage and self-awareness to stop, remove the pebble, and move forward unburdened. Todd's job is to bring empathy to this process, helping clients see that a little pause and strategic action now can save a lot of pain later.Empathy in Business: Feeling with, Not Just for, ClientsEmpathy isn't just a buzzword for Todd - it's the engine room of his work. He describes empathy as literally “feeling the pain” with clients, running powerful mental simulations to understand their struggles. This level of engagement helps him tailor guidance, support change, and avoid the trap of surface-level fixes.But Todd also recognizes the need for boundaries. He's learned how to compartmentalize - keeping his sleeves rolled up in the client meeting, then returning to his own life and headspace afterward. The goal isn't to drown in others' pain, but to guide them towards rewriting beliefs and taking action, turning empathy into a practical catalyst for transformation.AI's Double-Edged Sword: Efficiency Versus Authentic Human ConnectionWe couldn't talk business in 2025 without diving into AI! Todd has a nuanced stance: he leverages AI for efficiency in the back-end, but draws the line at letting it write client-facing content. Too many businesses, he argues, risk eroding trust and damaging their brand by letting AI handle the parts of marketing that should scream “human.”Todd warns that consumers can spot AI-generated content a mile away - those little clues like generic phrases or odd formatting actually undermine human connection rather than enhance it. The takeaway? Use AI to streamline, but always put authentic, human insight at the forefront if you want your message to resonate.Future-Proofing Ourselves: The Unique Human Skills AI Can't ReplaceIn today's environment of rapid technological change, Todd advises us to double down on the skills AI can't easily replicate: critical thinking, emotional intelligence, and real human creativity. While AI can optimize processes and even mimic empathy, Todd believes nothing substitutes the magic of genuine human connection - whether it's a heartfelt conversation, a powerful story, or the artistry of a well-placed metaphor.For Todd, future-proofing isn't about avoiding AI, but about integrating it wisely and nurturing the distinctly human qualities that make us indispensable. His parting wisdom invites us to reflect on what makes us, as individuals and business owners, irreplaceable - even in a world defined by relentless innovation.Call to ActionIf you're feeling stuck in your business or sense that a “pebble in your shoe” is hobbling your progress, take Todd's invitation to heart. Pause, reflect, and ask where old beliefs or habits might be holding you back. Consider how you can lean into your unique way of thinking - and let AI enhance, not replace, your essential humanness.The Buzz - Our Innovation RoundHere are Todd's answers to the questions of our innovation round.

Entrevista Bruno Gili - Responsable de Uruguay Innova by En Perspectiva

Our guest in this episode, is Dr. Jeff Gross, a pioneering neurological surgeon turned regenerative medicine specialist, is passionate about helping people live healthier, more vibrant lives. He shares his journey from traditional medicine to a holistic approach, emphasizing the importance of health span over lifespan. Key points discussed include:* Prioritize health span: Focus on quality of life, not just quantity of years.* Combat inflammation: Adopt lifestyle habits to reduce cellular stress.* Activate natural healing: Leverage sleep, exercise, and nutrition for regeneration.Listen to the podcast for the full conversation.Unlocking Longevity: Dr. Jeff Gross on Extending Health SpanWhen you listen to Dr. Jeff Gross in conversation with Jürgen Strauss, you quickly realize this isn't just another chat about living longer. It's a masterclass in living better for longer—a distinction that's both subtle and profound. Dr. Gross, a pioneering neurological surgeon turned regenerative medicine specialist, brings a refreshing blend of scientific rigor and practical wisdom to the table.At its heart, this conversation is about empowering listeners to activate their body's natural healing and longevity mechanisms. Dr. Gross and Jürgen Strauss explore not just how to add years to life, but how to fill those years with health, energy, and meaning.Key Takeaways* The distinction between lifespan and health span is crucial; the goal is not just to live longer, but to live healthier for longer. [0:01:30]* Chronic inflammation is the common pathway for most age-related decline; suppressing it is central to healthy longevity. [0:05:30]* Regenerative medicine leverages both ancient wisdom and modern science, focusing on natural healing, stem cells, and anti-inflammatory strategies. [0:07:00]* Sleep, exercise, and hormesis (beneficial stress) are foundational for activating the body's own regenerative capacity. [0:16:00]* Nutrition, especially minimizing processed foods and sugars while prioritizing protein, healthy fats, and micronutrients, is medicine for longevity. [0:36:00]* Anyone, regardless of current health, can benefit from adopting small, consistent longevity habits. [0:29:30]The Journey from Neurosurgery to Regenerative MedicineDr. Gross's professional journey is as inspiring as it is instructive. He began in the high-stakes world of neurosurgery, but it was his patients' questions and needs that nudged him toward regenerative medicine. He realized that fixing what's broken isn't enough; true healing means addressing the root causes. This shift wasn't about abandoning science, but about expanding it—embracing both cutting-edge research and time-tested wisdom from around the world. [0:01:30]The Science of Aging: Inflammation, Stem Cells, and the Body's Natural WisdomDr. Gross has a gift for making the complex simple. He explains that chronic inflammation is the silent saboteur of healthy aging, quietly eroding our vitality. Stem cells, meanwhile, are the body's natural repair crew—ready to leap into action if we give them the right environment. He draws on both modern biochemistry and ancient traditions, showing that the best solutions often blend old and new. [0:05:30] [0:07:00]Practical Strategies for Extending Health SpanWhat's truly empowering is how actionable Dr. Gross's advice is. Sleep, exercise, and hormesis (those little, beneficial stresses like cold showers or fasting) are all within reach. He doesn't preach perfection; instead, he encourages small, sustainable changes that add up over time. It's about building habits, not chasing hacks. The message: start where you are, and keep moving forward. [0:16:00] [0:29:30]Nutrition as Medicine: What to Eat, What to Avoid, and Why It MattersFood, in Dr. Gross's world, is both fuel and medicine. He urges us to minimize processed foods and sugars, and to embrace proteins, healthy fats, and micronutrients. It's not about deprivation, but about making choices that support our body's natural resilience. He reminds us that every meal is an opportunity to invest in our future health. [0:36:00]Mental Wellbeing and the Mind-Body ConnectionDr. Gross doesn't neglect the mind. He highlights the importance of sleep, breathwork, and stress management—not as afterthoughts, but as pillars of health. Simple practices, like deep breathing or mindful movement, can have outsized effects on our well-being. He's candid about his own journey, admitting he's not a meditation guru, but he's always learning and experimenting. [0:33:00]The Future of Regenerative Medicine: Hope, Innovation, and EmpowermentLooking ahead, Dr. Gross is optimistic. He sees regenerative medicine moving toward prevention, root-cause solutions, and less reliance on surgery or pharmaceuticals. The future, he believes, is about empowering individuals to take charge of their health, with science and tradition working hand in hand. It's a vision that's both hopeful and practical—a roadmap for anyone ready to invest in a longer, healthier, more vibrant life. [0:48:00]Action Items* Start or increase regular exercise, even if it's just walking—movement is the most accessible longevity tool. [0:50:30]* Add one new longevity habit: floss daily, try a cold shower, or introduce sublingual melatonin at bedtime. [0:31:00]* Reevaluate your nutrition: reduce processed foods and sugars, increase protein and healthy fats, and treat food as medicine. [0:36:00]* Track your sleep and experiment with improvements—consider a wearable or app, but always check in with how you feel. [0:22:00]* Share feedback or questions with the podcast host to guide future deep-dives on topics that resonate. [0:49:30]Next Steps* Explore more about regenerative medicine and Dr. Gross's work at recelebrate.com [0:49:00]* Consider which longevity habits you can implement this week—start small, but start now. [0:50:30]* If interested in specific topics (e.g., hormone optimization, stem cell therapies, mental health strategies), suggest them for future episodes. [0:49:30]SummaryDr. Jeff Gross's conversation is a breath of fresh air in the world of health and longevity. He combines expertise with empathy, and science with soul. If you're ready to rethink what's possible for your own health span, his insights are a great place to start. Remember, it's not just about living longer, but about living better for longer.ActionWrite comments to Jürgen on his podcast pages and let him know, like and subscribe to his material and share the comments.

Con Víctor García Gutiérrez

Our guest in this episode is Jon Bassford, a curiosity-driven leader, consultant, and author who helps organizations unlock innovation by asking better questions. Jon's journey is a story of challenging the status quo, rediscovering the power of curiosity, and empowering others to do the same. In his conversation with Jürgen, Jon shares practical tools, candid stories, and a contagious enthusiasm for making curiosity a daily habit.Key points discussed include:* Curiosity is a superpower that drives innovation, growth, and operational excellence in both individuals and organizations.* Building a culture of psychological safety and open questioning empowers teams to experiment, learn, and contribute their best ideas.* Practical tools—like improv exercises and breaking daily routines—can help anyone reignite their curiosity and creative thinking.Listen to the podcast to find out more.Show Notes from this episode with Jon Bassford, Lateral SolutionsUnleashing Your Inner Innovator: How Curiosity Can Transform Your LeadershipIn a recent episode of the InnovaBuzz podcast, host Jürgen engaged in a thought-provoking conversation with Jon Bassford, the founder and CEO of Lateral Solutions, and the author of "The Curious Leader." Jon specializes in helping organizations innovate, change, and grow by adopting a curiosity-driven leadership. The discussion revealed how cultivating curiosity can unlock transformative potential in both personal and professional spheres.The Power of Curiosity: Jon's JourneyJon's journey is a testament to the power of innate curiosity. He realized that his life has always been driven by a desire to challenge the status quo and improve existing systems. This internal drive has shaped his career, leading him to assist organizations in achieving operational excellence and driving intended results efficiently and effectively. It's not merely about making minor adjustments; it's about fundamentally questioning the rationale behind established practices.Reclaiming Your Inner Child: Rediscovering CuriosityJürgen and Jon explored how the innate curiosity of childhood often diminishes as individuals mature. Jon noted that by the age of 35, a significant portion of our habits and thoughts are programmed. However, he emphasized that it's never too late to reignite that inner child. He suggests implementing mechanisms within our lives and teams to consistently question the validity of our actions and explore potential improvements. It involves consciously challenging ingrained habits and embracing a mindset of continuous inquiry.The Art of Asking Questions: Solving Problems with CuriosityJon shared a key insight: effective problem-solving hinges not on possessing all the answers, but on posing the right questions. He referenced an exercise from his "Curious Leader" workshop, where teams tackle challenges solely through inquiry. The transformative moment occurs when a well-formulated question sparks a breakthrough. This underscores the notion that expertise isn't a prerequisite for progress; rather, it's the willingness to explore through questioning.Building a Curious Culture: Fostering Innovation in Your OrganizationThe conversation shifted to creating environments where questions are encouraged and experimentation is embraced. Jon stressed the importance of psychological safety, which begins with leaders understanding their team members on a personal level. Instead of dictating opinions, leaders should prioritize valuing the perspectives of their team. This fosters a culture of open communication and collaborative innovation.The Three Shifts: Mindset, Operations, and CultureJon outlined three essential shifts for leaders aiming to cultivate curiosity: mindset, operational excellence, and culture. The initial step involves transitioning from a fixed mindset to a growth-oriented one, encouraging individuals to envision possibilities beyond current limitations. Next, it entails regularly questioning existing processes and seeking opportunities for improvement. Ultimately, it's about fostering an environment where every member is empowered to drive innovation and positive change.Curiosity as Kryptonite: When Curiosity Goes WrongEven the most potent strengths have their limitations. Jon recounted an instance where his eagerness to instigate change met with resistance. This serves as a reminder that curiosity, like any virtue, requires judicious management. Self-awareness is paramount. Individuals must reflect on their actions and assess their contribution to the overall dynamic. Sometimes, the most insightful question is, "How am I impeding progress?"Practical Tools for Cultivating CuriosityJon offered practical tools for nurturing curiosity in everyday life. These included improv exercises, which encourage building upon ideas without dismissing them, and the 80/20 rule, where companies like Google and 3M allow employees to dedicate a portion of their time to passion projects. Even simple actions, such as brushing teeth with the non-dominant hand, can stimulate the brain and foster creativity. The key is to disrupt routines and explore new avenues of thought.ConclusionThe discussion between Jürgen and Jon illuminated the transformative potential of curiosity. By embracing childlike wonder, posing insightful questions, and nurturing a culture of inquiry, individuals and organizations can unlock innovation and drive meaningful progress. As Jon aptly demonstrated, curiosity isn't just a trait; it's a superpower waiting to be unleashed.The Buzz - Our Innovation RoundHere are Jon's answers to the questions of our innovation round.

Our guest in this episode is Debra Eckerling, a joyful goal strategist, award-winning author, and mastermind behind the DEB Method for simplified goal setting. Deb's mission is to make goal pursuit contagious and fun, inspiring everyone to move toward what truly lights them up by connecting their goals to genuine passion. In her lively chat with host Jürgen Strauss, Deb shares her contagious enthusiasm for creating an authentic roadmap to success—one that begins with self-awareness, celebrates every win, and leans into the magic of community.Key points discussed include:* Building Goals on Authentic Passion: Deb emphasizes that meaningful goals must stem from self-discovery, not “shoulds”—what excites you is what sustains you!* Celebrating Wins to Fuel Motivation: She encourages daily recognition of even small achievements, using a “win list” to keep momentum sparkly and strong.* Harnessing Community & Boundaries: Deb champions networking as a source of mutual delight and support, while also gracefully setting boundaries to stay mission-aligned.This episode is a delightful boost for anyone craving more joy, clarity, and connection on their goal-getting journey!Listen to the podcast to find out more.Show Notes From This Episode with Debra Eckerling, The DEB MethodIgniting Joyful Goal Setting: The Deb Eckerling ApproachToday, I'm delighted to dive into a radiant conversation with Debra Eckerling, goal strategist, workshop leader, and author on a mission to make goal setting as joyful and contagious as laughter. From the get-go, Deb's energy simply bubbles over, transforming what many might consider a dry subject into a dynamic, celebratory experience. It's this passion that underpins her signature DEB Method—a method rooted in simplicity, authenticity, and genuine joy.Deb believes that setting and getting goals shouldn't feel like another chore on the to-do list. Instead, it ought to invigorate us, spark creativity, and become a party everyone wants to attend. By infusing goal setting with enthusiasm and a sense of celebration, Deb empowers others to find delight and meaning in each step toward their dreams.The Foundation of Authentic Goals: Knowing What You WantOne of Deb's core beliefs is that successful goal setting starts with true self-awareness. She observes that all too often, people pursue goals that aren't genuinely theirs—falling into the “shoulds” handed down by others or dictated by circumstance. As she wisely puts it: “You can't get what you want unless you know what that is.” This insight, though deceptively simple, lies at the heart of her philosophy.Deb shares how, both in her own journey and in her coaching and workshops, she's seen people transform simply by reconnecting with what brings them joy. She encourages us to pause, reflect, and ask ourselves not what others expect us to do, but what genuinely lights us up from within. This intentional approach lays the groundwork for goals that are rooted in authenticity—goals that inspire commitment and create lasting fulfillment.Transforming Obligations into OpportunitiesWhat about those times when you're stuck in a job or obligation that isn't your passion? Deb offers a gentle, practical perspective. Not everyone can immediately leap away from the day-to-day things that don't light them up, and she's quick to acknowledge the realities—bills, families, and the necessities of life. But even within these constraints, there's space for joy.Deb proposes finding “a hit of joy” on the side, whether that's a creative project, a side hustle, or simply an activity that brings happiness. By letting these joyful pursuits fuel your spirit, you bring lightness into all areas of your life. Sometimes, these passion projects might even become a pathway to something bigger, but at the very least, they help make the less exciting responsibilities a bit more palatable.Building Your North Star: The DEB Method UnpackedAt the center of Deb's approach is her namesake DEB Method—Determine your mission, Explore your options, Brainstorm your path. The process begins with self-exploration, inviting you to visualize the life you want and craft both current and future bios, shaping your direction with clarity and intention. As Deb illustrates, this isn't just about dreamy thinking—it's about building a foundation, a “North Star,” that keeps your actions anchored and purposeful.The next steps encourage curiosity and creativity: exploring your options and then brainstorming the actionable steps to get there. By breaking down even big, ambitious goals into tangible, joyful pieces, Deb removes the intimidation and opens the door to real progress. It's a framework that honors both vision and practicality, always guided by what lights you up.Boundaries and Saying Yes to YourselfOf course, following your true path also means learning to say “no”—sometimes a gentle “not now”—to opportunities that don't align with your goals or mission. Deb's approach to boundaries is compassionate and generous: every “no” to something that isn't a fit is a “yes” to yourself and an invitation for someone else to shine in that space.She offers practical scripts and encouragement to help you navigate these choices without guilt or fear of missing out. By trusting your North Star, you make space for the opportunities that truly resonate, while giving others the gift of stepping into their own “yes.” It's about honoring yourself and your journey—without closing doors or burning bridges.Celebrating Wins and Fueling MotivationDeb is a champion of celebration, weaving it into every step of the goal-getting journey. She reminds us that too often, we get caught up in the slog of progress, forgetting to honor the moments of achievement along the way. Whether it's a tiny step forward or a major milestone, celebrating wins infuses you with the motivation to keep going.Her suggestion to keep a daily “win list” is deceptively powerful. Writing down one to three things you accomplished each day—even if it's just “I made it through”—builds an archive of positivity and progress. When doubt or fatigue creeps in, that list becomes a wellspring of encouragement, a reminder that you are, indeed, moving forward.From Passion to Action: Embracing Community and Moving ForwardFinally, no one achieves their dreams in isolation. Deb celebrates the magic of community—whether it's through goal groups, masterminds, or informal support networks. Sharing your wins, articulating your needs, and enthusiastically supporting others build an environment where success is magnetic and contagious.In Deb's world, action is iterative, fueled by passion and uplifted by others. She urges us to gift ourselves the time to discover what makes us unique, turn that spark into practical steps, and seek out the company of those who will cheer us on. After all, we are all part of a bigger ecosystem of possibility—and when we help one another rise, everyone wins.Conclusion: Your Invitation to Celebrate and ActDebra Eckerling's approach to goal setting is a vibrant invitation: bring more joy, authenticity, and connection into your journey. Start your own win list today. Write down those small victories. Reflect on what truly lights you up. And remember, whether you're taking your very first step or well on your way, celebrating your wins and building supportive connections will propel you forward. Let's make goal setting a party we all want to attend—one filled with laughter, passion, and purpose. Your goals are yours to discover and achieve. Keep moving, keep celebrating, and let your light shine!The Buzz - Our Innovation RoundHere are Deb's answers to the questions of our innovation round. Listen to the conversation to get the full scoop.* No. 1 thing to be more innovative – Listen to your inner voice because you already know the answers—you just need to ask yourself the right questions.* Best thing for new ideas – Engage in activities like cooking or having conversations, as they allow your mind to wander and help generate creative ideas.* Favourite resource – Tap into your community and network, asking questions and allowing others the opportunity to help you as a shared gift.* Keep project/client on track – Set realistic deadlines while respecting your own calendar, making appointments with yourself and treating them as commitments just like those with others.* Differentiate – Reflect through journaling or ask others what makes you unique, then fully own and enthusiastically lean into that quality.ActionDeb encourages you to start a daily win list. Each day, take a minute to write down one, two, or three things you accomplished or that went well—then refer back to your list whenever you need motivation or a reminder of your progress.Reach OutYou can reach out and thank Deb by connecting with her on social media at @thedebmethod everywhere, including YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn.

In her insightful conversation with Jürgen Strauss on the Innovabuzz podcast, Josselyne, a master coach and the creator of the "Unmessable With" philosophy, reveals how we can transform our lives by overcoming limiting beliefs. With experience spanning over three decades, she steers individuals towards living the lives of their dreams in the present, not in the elusive "someday." Let's delve into the core themes and insights from this inspiring dialogue.The Journey from Dreams to RealityJosselyne's own life is a blueprint of how dreams can transform into reality. Her journey from a pop star to a transformative coach is rich with lessons on overcoming limiting beliefs. She shares the pivotal moment in her early twenties when she questioned an ingrained belief that one cannot pursue art as a career. This epiphany marked the shift from seeing it as an unchangeable truth to seeing it as a mere belief. By shedding this limitation, she swiftly accomplished her dream of a music career, demonstrating the powerful unfolding when personal barriers are dismantled. Her story reminds us that living our dreams starts by questioning and transforming the narratives we tell ourselves.Understanding the Unmessable With ConceptAccording to Josselyne, being "unmessable with" is not about being tough or suppressing emotions; it's about staying committed to your vision regardless of external chaos. She emphasises that it's natural to react to life's upheavals, but the true art lies in transitioning from reaction to creation. This philosophy equips individuals to remain steadfast in their vision, enabling them to navigate life's unpredictabilities with grace and persistence. It's about developing the nimbleness to recalibrate swiftly and consistently focus on building the life envisioned.Crafting and Living Your Vision NowJosselyne brings forth a transformative approach to vision creation where one doesn't wait for someday. Instead, she encourages crafting and living your dreams in the present. Unlike goals, which are tangible endpoints, visions are lived experiences that aren't reliant on circumstances and are fulfillable in the moment. She emphasises that achieving tangible goals without an overarching vision often leads to emptiness, whereas a vision constantly rejuvenates and fulfils us. The process illuminates how aligning with one's vision can imbue life with purpose and lead to holistic success.The Balance of Vision and VehicleIn exploring the intricacies of breadth in life's pursuits, Josselyne talks about the significance of distinguishing between vision and vehicles. Often, individuals become overly fixated on specific paths (vehicles) and lose sight of their broader vision. Josselyne stresses that numerous vehicles exist to manifest one's vision, thus providing flexibility and adaptability. When setbacks occur, it's an opportunity to explore alternative avenues rather than perceiving them as dead ends. This approach ensures one remains open to possibilities, cultivating a dynamic balance between aspirations and the means to achieve them.Building Resilience while Staying True to Your VisionResilience, as Josselyne discusses, transcends bouncing back from adversity. It's intricately linked with being unmessable, where one not only recovers but continues to progress towards their vision. It's about identifying personal cues of reaction and having mechanisms like physical or mental exercises to shift back to a space of creation. By utilising these strategies, one fosters resilience that is not just about maintaining status quo but about thriving and evolving continuously in alignment with one's vision.Creating a Vivid Roadmap through Vision CraftingIn the transformative journey with her clients, Josselyne stresses crafting an explicit vision as a roadmap. Her method involves articulating experiences one seeks in life, transcending material goals, and centering on emotions like freedom or connection. By shifting focus to experience, individuals construct a vibrant framework that steers every aspect of life harmoniously. This creates an undivided life view, integrating personal and professional endeavours under a unifying vision, leading to enriched and fulfilling experiences.Conclusion: The Empowering Path of Living Your Version of SuccessJosselyne Herman-Saccio's conversation inspires us to embrace the joy of living a life not bound by fears or constraints but fuelled by our authentic visions. Her insights unravel the profound impact of questioning beliefs and creating present-moment experiences of our dreams. Josselyne's teachings challenge us to step beyond conventional boundaries, realising a life where resilience, vision, and excellence are the norm. Let her transformative philosophy inspire you to pursue your potential and redefine success.Call to ActionConsider what limiting beliefs might hold you back from living your dreams.

Who else can say they've rocked the pop-stage and the personal development world?* Josselyne didn't just dip her toes into transformation—she dove in headfirst at age 11 with the EST training. By 18, she was already leading seminars at Landmark, making her the youngest seminar leader in their history.* Splitting her time between Manhattan and Paris, Josselyne lives the dream of a cosmopolitan lifestyle. But what's even cooler? She lends her Paris apartment to friends when she's not there—because why let a beautiful space (and plants!) go to waste?* Josselyne has managed actors, produced award-winning films, raised nearly $90 million for non-profits, and still finds time to coach people to live their dreams. If there's a hat to wear, she's probably rocked it—and made it look effortless.* Josselyne's philosophy of shifting from "survival to magic" isn't just a catchy phrase—it's a way of life. She's on a mission to help people rediscover the magic in their lives, proving that even in the chaos, there's room for wonder and joy.Imagine being a part of a select community where you not only have access to our amazing podcast guests, but you also get a chance to transform your marketing and podcast into a growth engine with a human-centered, relationship-focused approach.That's exactly what you'll get when you join the Flywheel Nation Community.Tap into the collective wisdom of high-impact achievers, gain exclusive access to resources, and expand your network in our vibrant community.Experience accelerated growth, breakthrough insights, and powerful connections to elevate your business.ACT NOW – secure your spot and transform your journey today!
