Episode Notes On this episode of the Solar Maverick Podcast, host Benoy Thanjan sits down with Jing Tian, Chief Growth & Revenue Officer at Tigo Energy, to explore how smarter electronics, AI, and energy intelligence are reshaping the solar industry. Jing shares her journey from a PhD in chemistry to becoming a global solar executive, including leadership roles across Asia and the U.S. She breaks down how module-level power electronics (MLPE) improve safety, flexibility, and performance in residential, C&I, and utility-scale solar and why MLPE is becoming foundational as solar converges with storage, software, and grid services. The conversation also dives into rapid shutdown requirements, AI-powered monitoring, and how predictive analytics can reduce O&M costs while improving system reliability. Jing closes with thoughtful advice for emerging leaders, women in clean energy, and anyone navigating the “solar coaster.” Notable Takeaways * MLPE enables safer, smarter, and more flexible solar system design * Small performance gains at the module level can create massive impact at scale * AI-driven monitoring turns raw data into actionable insights * Innovation must solve real customer pain points, not just advance technology * Strong leadership requires adaptability, clear communication, and cultural awareness   Biographies Benoy Thanjan Benoy Thanjan is the Founder and CEO of Reneu Energy, solar developer and consulting firm, and a strategic advisor to multiple cleantech startups.

In this episode of the Agents of Innovation podcast, Francisco Gonzalez joins Ryan Doyle aboard Amigo, a 1937 classic wooden Wheeler and sister ship to Ernest Hemingway's famed Pilar, at the Riviera Beach Marina near West Palm Beach. Ryan shares his journey from a horse farm in Connecticut to the U.S. Coast Guard, maritime academy, and eventually a career in yachting that led him to founding Doyle Marine Management, the Vintage Boat Club, and the new Admiralty Marine Center. He explains what makes classic wooden boats so special, why he sees himself as a steward of maritime history, and how yacht management quietly turns owners' dreams into reality. Ryan also lays out his vision for a marine trade school to train the next generation of shipwrights and wooden boat carpenters, an in-demand trade that AI won't replace anytime soon. Throughout the conversation, themes of integrity, persistence, and the American Dream run strong, as Ryan and Francisco talk about finding a niche where passion meets market need and encourage listeners to “keep moving forward” in their own journeys.

The tensions are palpable, with political, social, and cultural divisions creating an atmosphere of discord. Charles (Chip) Hauss, Senior Fellow for Innovation at the Alliance for Peacebuilding and author of Peacebuilding Starts at Home, believes the solution lies in starting small—right in our own communities.In today's episode, Chip shared a critical insight: peacebuilding doesn't happen in a distant, abstract sense—it's something we actively build in our daily lives. “Peace is a verb,” Chip explained. “It is something I do. I build it. And more importantly, it starts at home.”For Chip, the importance of local peacebuilding became clear during a conversation with colleagues after the 2014 killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri. The Alliance for Peacebuilding, at the time, focused almost exclusively on international conflicts. But Chip posed a poignant question: “How can we tell people in Burundi that we can solve their problems if we can't do it in Baltimore?”This realization sparked a shift in focus. Chip emphasized that addressing the microcosm of our lives—our families, neighborhoods, and local communities—has the power to ripple outward. By fostering understanding and collaboration in these spaces, we can create broader societal change.What makes this approach even more compelling is its inclusivity. Chip encourages finding common ground even with those we disagree with. “Our first instinct should be to find the things that we share, find the things that we are for,” he said. This mindset, he believes, is the foundation for building meaningful relationships and, ultimately, peace.Chip's work is now evolving into a larger movement to equip individuals with the tools to build peace in their own lives. By focusing on what unites us instead of what divides us, he hopes to inspire millions to take small, tangible steps toward a more peaceful society.It's a powerful reminder that while global challenges may seem insurmountable, the solutions often begin with simple, human connections close to home.tl;dr:Charles Hauss explains why peacebuilding must start at home to inspire broader societal change.The Alliance for Peacebuilding shifted focus to U.S. communities after Ferguson, Missouri, in 2014.Chip emphasizes finding shared values, even with those we strongly disagree with.He shares a practical example of applying peacebuilding to resolve local condo tensions.Chip's new book and movement aim to empower individuals to build peace in daily life.How to Develop Building Meaningful Relationships As a SuperpowerChip's superpower is his ability to build meaningful relationships, especially with people he disagrees with. He explained, “My challenge, and it's become my superpower, was to work with…to start where people are.” For Chip, peacebuilding isn't about tolerating differences but about celebrating them. He shared, “Peacebuilding is not a burden or a chore. It's actually something you can do for fun.” His unique gift lies in creating connections that foster understanding and collaboration, even in contentious or divided spaces.Chip shared a story about moving into a new condo complex where management issues caused tension among residents. Many neighbors were frustrated and confrontational, but Chip encouraged a different approach. He suggested getting to know the new building manager, understanding her perspective, and working together constructively. Within weeks, the community made progress, replacing the manager and starting to build a stronger, more collaborative environment. This story exemplifies Chip's ability to transform conflict into connection through relationship-building.Tips for Developing the Superpower:Start where people are—understand their values, perspectives, and interests.Focus on what you share rather than what divides you.Embrace disagreements as opportunities for learning and growth.Approach peacebuilding as something enjoyable rather than a chore.Encourage collaboration by guiding conversations toward constructive solutions.By following Chip's example and advice, you can make building meaningful relationships a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileCharles (Chip) Hauss (he/him):Senior Fellow for Innovation and Emeritus member of the board o directors, Alliance for PeacebuildingAbout Alliance for Peacebuilding: AfP is the largest network of peacebuilding organizations in the world with over 250 organizational members. After having done the bulk of its work around the world, its leaders and members have decided that peacebuilding has to start at home and that if we want to help people in Botswana create a more peaceful society, we have to do so in Baltimore as well. Chip Hauss will be part of the team that makes that happen starting--but not ending with--the publication of his book, not surprisingly, called Peacebuilding Starts at Home.Website: peacebuildingstartsathome.us and allianceforpeacebuilding.orgOther URL: amzn.to/3KPaWBaBiographical Information: Charles “Chip” Hauss has been exploring ways of producing large scale social and political change through nonviolent and cooperative means since his undergraduate days in the late 1960s. In all of this work, Hauss has tried to be a political bridge builder who brings “strange political bedfellows” together to help solve problems that can only be effectively addressed if they work together. Hauss is currently Senior Fellow for Innovation at the Alliance for Peacebuilding where he helps lead its Peacebuilding Starts at Home initiative which focuses on what the Judy and Peter Blum Kovler Foundation refers to as “America's neglected needs.Hauss is the author of nineteen books on peacebuilding and comparative politics. His newest book Peacebuilding Starts at Home was published in November.Hauss holds a BA from Oberlin and a PhD from the University of Michigan.LinkedIn Profile: linkedin.com/in/chip-hauss-03a64744/Support Our SponsorsOur generous sponsors make our work possible, serving impact investors, social entrepreneurs, community builders and diverse founders.

LENIN'S INNOVATION: REVOLUTIONARY DEFEATISM AND GLOBAL CIVIL WAR Colleague Professor Sean McMeekin. Focusing on Vladimir Lenin, this section examines how he radicalized Marx's vision through the concept of "revolutionary defeatism." Lenin believed that disastrous imperial wars, like World War I, should be welcomed as catalysts to turn international conflict into domestic civil war. His goal was to spark a chain reaction of global civil wars until the "proletarian revolution" was achieved. Unlike socialists who sought reform through elections, Lenin demanded a "vanguard" of professional revolutionaries to impose doctrine from the top down. McMeekinhighlights Lenin's ruthlessness, noting that he suppressed his own appreciation for music to avoid becoming sentimental, believing the political vision required an unyielding hardness to operationalize Marx's theories into a strategy of perpetual war. NUMBER 3

Stefan Molyneux looks at why it's worth talking about childhood experiences with parents, pointing out how these talks can help with self-understanding and ease a sense of scarcity. He describes a scarcity mentality as seeing resources as fixed, which holds back personal growth and broader progress, and he pushes for open conversations about how parents shaped us. Drawing on his own stories and some history, Molyneux moves to supporting an abundance mindset that encourages new ideas and working together. He also focuses on taking charge to handle difficulties and owning up in evaluating oneself. Wrapping up, he urges people to get involved in life, think about the attitudes they've picked up, and step up with responsibility and action.SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

Innovation doesn't suffer from a lack of talent — it suffers from a lack of access.In Part 1 of this powerful two-part conversation, Dr. Alisa sits down with Race to Innovation co-authors Dr. John Bamforth and Dr. Roy Zwahlen to unpack what they call America's innovation deficit — and why unlocking overlooked potential is not just a moral imperative, but an economic one.This episode dives deep into the hidden history of Black entrepreneurship, the mindset shifts required to recognize undervalued opportunities, and the underestimated role of enclaves — communities, networks, and institutions that quietly fuel innovation when mainstream systems fall short.You'll hear how innovation has always existed in marginalized communities, why it has often gone unseen, and what leaders, investors, and entrepreneurs must do differently if they want to build sustainable, scalable impact.This is not theory. This is strategy. And it sets the foundation for the ownership, legacy, and acceleration conversation coming in Part 2.Learn more about Race to Innovation: Unleashing the Power of Entrepreneurship for Everyone and connect with co-authors Dr. John Bamforth and Dr. Roy Zwahlen.Explore the book, the research, and the ideas behind inclusive entrepreneurship and innovation: 

Innovation creates momentum — but ownership creates legacy.In Part 2 of this must-hear conversation, Dr. Alisa continues the dialogue with Dr. John Bamforth and Dr. Roy Zwahlen, shifting the focus from awareness to activation.This episode explores why ownership is the cornerstone of generational wealth, how diverse innovators bring a unique lens to underserved markets, and what it truly takes to accelerate transformative change — not slowly, not someday, but now.The conversation goes personal as both guests Flip the Script, sharing pivotal mindset shifts from their own global careers — moments that challenged assumptions, reshaped leadership, and redefined how innovation ecosystems must function if they are to work for everyone.If you're a leader, entrepreneur, or change-maker who wants more than surface-level inclusion — this episode delivers the mindset, strategy, and clarity to move from intention to impact.Continue the conversation with Dr. John Bamforth and Dr. Roy Zwahlen, co-authors of Race to Innovation.Visit the official book site to dive deeper into ownership, innovation ecosystems, and accelerating transformative change:

This week, we dive deep into the evolving world of digital dentures with George Cowburn, along with denturist Robert MacLeay and digital designer Kaylee Jilbert. George shares his unconventional path from engineering into dentures, the early challenges of bringing CAD/CAM into removables, and why his company Perfit has evolved into Lab Pilot (https://www.labpilot.net/)—a cloud-based approach designed to meet labs and denturists where they are, not where software companies wish they'd be. Robert and Kaylee bring the real-world perspective, explaining how combining analog fundamentals with digital design unlocked predictable, better-fitting dentures and titanium partial frameworks that actually snap into place. From monolithic milled partials to same-day digital relines and cloud-based CAM without subscriptions, this conversation explores how “trad-digital” workflows could finally make digital dentures accessible, scalable, and practical for everyday labs—without sacrificing fit, function, or sanity.

New Year, New Diamond Intimacy — What Really Needs to Shift In this final episode of the New Year, New Diamond Intimacy series, Dr. Sonia explores what truly stands in the way of creating the intimacy you want—and why it's often not what you think. Many women believe intimacy will improve if they try harder, push through exhaustion, or fix themselves. In this episode, Dr. Sonia offers a powerful reframe: intimacy doesn't respond to pressure—it responds to safety, self-compassion, and support. You'll learn why tiredness, low desire, body changes, and communication challenges aren't obstacles to overcome, but signals pointing to what needs care and intention. This episode invites you to move from self-blame to self-support and to see intimacy as something to be nurtured, not forced. This conversation brings the three-part series together with a clear message: you are not broken—you are evolving, and your intimacy gets to evolve with you. ✨ This episode also shares information about The New Year, New Diamond Intimacy Experience, a high-touch coaching opportunity for women ready to create intimacy that feels aligned, nourishing, and alive.

Dean Salakas has built his career around decisions most people avoid, and the discipline to stand by them. From turning down public opportunities to letting go of a legacy family business at the right moment, Dean's leadership has been shaped by judgment, not noise. He grew up inside retail, questioned how things were done, and learned early that progress comes from clear thinking, not applause. In this episode, Dean reflects on the decisions that defined his path, the discipline behind his success, and how clarity, not hype, has guided every reinvention. Key Highlights Learning leadership from the ground up Dean started working in his family's party shop as a child, doing the unglamorous work that taught him how businesses really operate. That early exposure shaped his leadership style and his respect for the work behind the scenes. Innovation driven by usefulness, not trends From early ecommerce to click-and-collect and Google Ads before the industry caught up, Dean explains why he only backed ideas that genuinely improved the customer experience. Choosing profit and discipline over fast growth Rather than chasing scale, Dean focused on building a profitable, sustainable business. Growth came from cash flow, clarity, and discipline, not external pressure or validation. Courage as a decision-making muscle Dean shares the thinking behind turning down a Shark Tank deal, selling parts of the business at the right time, and ultimately exiting the family company. For him, courage shows up quietly, long before the outcome is obvious. Why community matters more than ever After exiting, Dean co-founded a fast-growing retail community built on connection and shared learning. His belief is simple: leadership is harder in isolation, and progress accelerates when people learn together.   Dean's story is not about retail alone. It is about how leaders make decisions when the stakes are real and the answers are not obvious. This conversation is a reminder that reinvention rarely comes from bold announcements. It comes from small, consistent decisions made with clarity and intent. When leaders stay grounded in what matters, the next chapter tends to reveal itself. If you are building, leading, or standing at a crossroads, this episode will resonate.

In this episode of Innovation Meets Leadership, host Natalie Born sits down with executive coach, former diplomat, and author Rene Sonneveld for a powerful conversation about leadership, innovation, and the unseen forces that shape both.Rene explores why innovation doesn't begin with strategy decks or brainstorm sessions—but with the courage to name what everyone feels and no one is saying. From family enterprises to executive teams, he explains how unspoken fears, emotional blind spots, and “elephants in the room” quietly block creativity and decision-making. This episode is a must-listen for leaders navigating complexity, legacy, and high-stakes conversations—at work and at home.[00:00 – 02:30] Innovation Begins Where Certainty EndsWhy innovation often emerges from confusion, fear, and discomfort—not clarity.Rene's global experience working with leaders and enterprise families.The link between emotional honesty and transformational leadership.[02:31 – 05:50] The Elephant in the Family RoomWhat leaders lose when they avoid naming the real issue.How trapped energy and unspoken tension collapse creativity.Why this dynamic shows up in families, boards, and executive teams alike.[05:51 – 09:40] Leaders Don't Have Decision Problems—They Have Emotion-Naming ProblemsHow fear hijacks the nervous system and shuts down innovation.Fight, flight, or freeze responses in leadership settings.Why regulation—not fearlessness—creates better decisions.[09:41 – 13:30] “Flipping the Lid” and the Amygdala HijackHow psychological threats trigger reactive leadership behavior.Why leaders say “the wrong thing” under pressure.The importance of pausing, breathing, and naming emotions to restore clarity.[13:31 – 16:40] Naming Fear as the Gateway to BreakthroughWhy innovation cannot thrive in environments of fear or walking on eggshells.How truth-telling frees energy and reactivates creativity.A real-world example of long-stuck family dynamics unlocking new possibilities.[16:41 – 19:20] Authenticity, Messiness, and Modern LeadershipWhy authenticity is becoming increasingly rare.The cost of performative leadership—especially in the age of social media.Why innovation flourishes when leaders allow complexity and humanity.[19:21 – 22:50] Stories, Identity, and the Lids We Put on OurselvesHow internal narratives limit leadership capacity.Why the lies we believe quietly cap innovation.Reframing leadership as presence, not perfection.[22:51 – 25:10] Ecosystems That Support InnovationWhy environment matters—at work and at home.The connection between place, pace, and creative capacity.Designing a life and leadership context that allows innovation to breathe.[25:11 – 27:40] Final Reflections: Innovation as a PracticeWhy innovation is not a performance—but a daily practice.Rene's parting message on courage, imagination, and trust.How naming truth transforms fear into possibility.Quotes“Innovation doesn't start with what we put on paper. It starts with naming the things we are most afraid to say.” – Rene Sonneveld“Most leaders don't have decision-making problems—they have emotion-naming problems.” – Rene Sonneveld“Naming isn't confrontation.

In dieser Folge gibt es eine Sonderausgabe im Rahmen des Sockenkalenders 2025 – und damit eine besondere Konstellation. Jetzt wird's technisch – aber vor allem verständlich. Gemeinsam mit Tobias Leicher von IBM spricht unser Gast-Host Jürgen Schmitt über die oft unsichtbare, aber entscheidende Infrastruktur hinter unserem Finanzsystem: Mainframes, Quantencomputer und die Frage, warum Stabilität manchmal wichtiger ist als das neueste Buzzword. Sie sprechen darüber, warum Banken bis heute auf Systeme setzen, die seit Jahrzehnten weiterentwickelt werden, wie moderne Mainframes eigentlich funktionieren und weshalb „alt“ in der IT oft alles andere als rückständig ist. Außerdem geht es um Quantencomputing, Verschlüsselung, technologische Nachhaltigkeit und darum, warum man Innovation nicht immer neu erfinden muss – sondern manchmal einfach besser verstehen sollte. Dazu gibt's persönliche Einblicke, Anekdoten aus der IT-Welt, einen kleinen Ausflug in die Geschichte der Computertechnik und die Frage, wie viel Zukunft eigentlich schon heute in unseren Systemen steckt. Eine Folge über Technologie, Verantwortung, Fortschritt – und darüber, warum manches einfach zuverlässig funktionieren muss.

Peso Pluma BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Peso Pluma has spent the past few days turning a family project into a career milestone. On December 25 he released the new joint album Dinastia with his cousin Tito Double P, a move positioned by Drop The Spotlight as one of the years most powerful corridos projects and a conscious statement about legacy, family and Mexican pride. According to that report, the album leans into black and white visuals, lucha libre masks and overt religious and cultural iconography, framing Peso not just as a chart star but as a standard bearer for Musica Mexicana going forward. The focus single Dopamina dropped with an accompanying video the same day, and Hola describes it as rooted in regional Mexican tradition but pushed forward with modern lyrics about the rush of attraction, underlining his ongoing project of dragging old school corridos into a contemporary global lane.Media coverage has treated this as more than just another release. The DJ Sessions ran a feature December 26 on how Peso Pluma and Tito Double P made Dinastia and changed the sound of corridos, presenting the album as a stylistic pivot with long term implications for the genre. Hola included Dopamina and the album in its year end New Music Friday roundup, slotting Peso alongside mainstream Anglo pop names as proof that he now lives in the center of global pop conversation, not the margins.On the live front, LAist reports that earlier this week he sold out two nights at YouTube Theater in Inglewood, drawing a cross generational, pan Latino crowd that dressed up as much for each other as for the show. Fans interviewed there described him as the contemporary version of Los Tigres del Norte, the guy carrying the Mexican flag in U.S. arenas and a bridge between parents raised on rancheras and kids raised on rap and reggaeton, reinforcing his biographical arc as a cultural connector as much as a hitmaker.Across social media the loudest verified chatter has revolved around clips and fan photos from those Los Angeles shows and shares of Dopamina and the Dinastia artwork, all feeding the narrative that Peso Pluma is closing the year not just hot but establishing a dynastic brand built around family, heritage and stylistic experimentation. Any rumors beyond that about personal life or behind the scenes drama remain unconfirmed at this time and do not appear in major verified outlets.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

What happens when living with chronic disease leads you to an unexpected calling? On this episode of The Heart of Innovation, cohosts Kym McNicholas and Dr. John Phillips sit down with Rob, founder of PAD Life Outdoors, who shares his powerful and deeply human journey of living with Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) — a condition caused by poor circulation in the legs — while also navigating life after aortic stenting for an abdominal aortic aneurysm. Along the way, Rob discovered something surprising. As his beard grew, a pair of spectacles appeared, and strangers began calling him Santa — he realized that spreading joy, hope, and holiday cheer gave him something medicine alone never could. This spring, Rob is taking that calling one step further by enrolling in Santa Claus School to become fully certified. In this heartfelt conversation, Rob opens up about: Living with the physical and emotional weight of PAD Recovering from major vascular disease and intervention How purpose and joy can help quiet the daily burden of chronic illness Why becoming Santa has helped him focus on what he can do — not what PAD has taken away This episode is a reminder that even in the face of debilitating disease, meaning, connection, and joy still matter — and they can be powerful medicine.

A guest episode from Famous & Gravy. On each episode, host Michael Osborne and guests look at the life of a famous dead celebrity and ask themselves if it's a life they would've wanted. The show gets into all sorts of things you will not in that person's official obituary or biography. I'm a fan. Here's how they describe today's episode:This person died 2011, age of 56. He dropped out of Reed College in 1972 and once said that taking LSD was among the most important things he ever did. In the early years of his career, his obsession with detail drove colleagues crazy, but later he inspired extraordinary loyalty. In the 1990s he bought a small computer graphics spinoff from George Lucas and built it into Pixar. He told the world he would step down as Apple's CEO if he could no longer meet expectations — and then he did. Today's dead celebrity is Steve Jobs.Subscribe to Famous & Gravy in all your favorite podcast apps and at famousandgravy.com---And if you please…Subscribe to the CRAFTED. newsletter: crafted.fmShare with a friend!
