Podcasts about Instinct

Today, we're diving into the incredible journey of Abubakar Salim, an actor who at just 16, gave himself a life-altering ultimatum: break into the National Youth Theatre or join the Army. From that high-stakes beginning, Abubakar has navigated the industry by constantly chasing the raw, unpolished instinct of his younger self. He shares how this philosophy carried him through a grueling nine-round audition process for Ridley Scott's Raised by Wolves and eventually into the world of House of the Dragon. We explore how he transitioned from a "performer for hire" to a visionary storyteller by founding Surgent Studios, where he now creates video games like Tales of Kenzera: ZAU to process deeply personal themes of grief and loss. Get ready for an inspiring conversation about the power of "just being," the importance of kindness in a brutal industry, and why the most successful auditions are often the ones where you stop trying to have a plan and start seeking discovery. These are the unforgettable stories that landed Abubakar Salim right here.

It's the stage where the body can no longer produce enough insulin on its own to manage blood sugars you need to start insulin. This approval is for kids ages 8-17 within 8 weeks of a stage 3 T1D diagnosis. It comes after the PROTECT trial and it's the first approval of a disease-modifying therapy for stage 3 T1D. https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/breakthrough-t1d-celebrates-approval-of-tzield-for-use-in-stage-3-type-1-diabetes-in-the-us-302799532.html XX Encouraging results from a small study of islet cell transplantation in people with type 1 where now all 12 participants in the trial are currently living without external insulin after receiving transplanted insulin-producing islet cells.   The study, led by researchers at the University of Chicago, tested an experimental immune therapy called tegoprubart Te-GO-Proo-Bart. The drug is designed to prevent the body from rejecting transplanted cells while avoiding some of the side effects associated with standard anti-rejection medications. You've probably heard about this as the Eledon study – many of the participants have been very active on social media. It was presented at ADA. transplants.https://www.breakthrought1d.org/news-and-updates/tegoprubart-islet-transplant-all-participants-off-external-insulin/ XX New data suggest that acmopatide (ack-MOW-puh-tyd) (CT-868), an experimental once-daily dual GLP-1/GIP receptor agonist, may help people with type 1 diabetes improve blood sugar control, lose weight, and reduce insulin use. Across all doses, participants lost up to 7% of their body weight and reduced insulin use by as much as 15%. The study lasted just 16 weeks, so researchers say longer-term data will be needed to determine whether the benefits can be maintained and whether lower insulin requirements can be achieved without increasing the risk of hypoglycemia. XX A new combination therapy that pairs an amylin analog with semaglutide improved both blood sugar levels and weight loss in several groups of people with type 2 diabetes. The once-weekly injectable, known as CagriSema (KAG-ruh-SEM-uh), was evaluated in three Phase 3 REIMAGINE studies. In people early in the course of type 2 diabetes, researchers reported A1C reductions of up to 1.8 percentage points and significant weight loss compared to placebo after 40 weeks of treatment. Investigators also noted improvements in several cardiometabolic risk factors, including blood pressure. https://www.medpagetoday.com/meetingcoverage/ada/121658 XX Stelo for kids is now FDA cleared.. the over the counter Glucose Biosensor System is now approved for children as young as 2 years old who do not use insulin. The FDA identified pediatric prediabetes as a growing public health concern motivating the expanded indication, noting OTC CGMs can help younger users and their caregivers build glycemic awareness, track patterns in response to me https://www.hcplive.com/view/fda-clears-first-otc-glucose-monitor-for-children XX Insulet presented new data from its STRIVE and EVOLUTION 3 studies showing improved glucose control with its next-generation Omnipod 6. That's , the company's upcoming hybrid closed-loop system for people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. The main difference between the Omnipod 6 and Insulet's current Omnipod 5 patch pumps is that the new system has a lower glucose target of 100 mg/dL and better Bluetooth connectivity Insulet also shared progress on a fully closed-loop system designed specifically for type 2 diabetes. It  does not require carb-counting or insulin bolusing ahead of meals. Physicians also don't need to program the starting settings.   XX Abbott shared new research highlighting challenges in identifying and managing diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). The studies coincide with the company's development of Libre Duo, a dual glucose-ketone sensor that continuously tracks both measurements. Abbott reported that DKA can be difficult to recognize when patients first arrive at the hospital, based on data from more than 100,000 people. The company has submitted the dual sensor to the FDA and recently received CE Mark approval in Europe. More news from ADA including info from Dexcom, Sequel, Sensonics and the world loses a tireless T1D advocate.. that's all to come right after this. --   Back to the news.. XX   Dexcom announced its acquisition of Nutrisense, a company that combines continuous glucose monitoring with nutrition coaching and behavioral support. At ADA, the company also presented results from the CONNECT study showing significant A1C reductions and improved glucose control in people with type 2 diabetes not using insulin. The findings add to growing evidence supporting CGM use beyond intensive insulin therapy. We did an episode with CEO Jake Leach at ADA about these announcements as well as updates on G8, their hospital product and much more. XX Sequel Med Tech reported positive clinical results evaluating its twiist automated insulin delivery system in people with type 2 diabetes. The study showed improvements in A1C and time in range over 13 weeks XX Senseonics presented new real-world data supporting the performance of its Eversense 365 implantable CGM. The analysis included more than 12,000 sensors and demonstrated sustained accuracy and effectiveness in both open-loop and automated insulin delivery settings. Researchers also evaluated Eversense use with Sequel Med Tech's twiist system. The findings support broader use of long-term implantable CGM technology.   -- MiniMed used ADA 2026 to spotlight two recently cleared diabetes management systems. The MiniMed Flex pump offers a smaller, smartphone-controlled insulin pump option, while MiniMed Go combines the InPen smart insulin pen with Abbott's Instinct sensor. The products received FDA clearance earlier this year. XX Tandem Diabetes Care highlighted data supporting the use of its Control-IQ automated insulin delivery technology during pregnancy. Results from the CIRCUIT trial showed users spent approximately three additional hours per day in the recommended pregnancy glucose range compared with standard therapy. The findings helped support recent regulatory approvals for pregnancy use in both Europe and the United States. Tandem also expanded indications for adults with type 2 diabetes. XX Beta Bionics presented real-world data from the first three years of iLet Bionic Pancreas use. The company reported a 25% improvement in time in range among users, along with positive feedback from clinicians about simplified diabetes management. The iLet system requires only a user's weight to begin therapy and eliminates carbohydrate counting. Beta Bionics also highlighted growing access to near-real-time outcomes through its public data dashboard. XX MannKind presented new findings supporting its Afrezza inhaled insulin at ADA 2026. A post-hoc analysis of the INHALE-1 study found that pediatric users reported greater treatment satisfaction compared with those using rapid-acting injected insulin. The results come shortly after FDA approval expanded Afrezza's indication to include children. We did a bonus episode with one of the lead investigators of the study that lead to that approval. XX Adaptyx presented early clinical data supporting a wearable sensor that continuously measures cortisol levels. The device successfully tracked cortisol changes during both controlled testing and overnight monitoring in first-in-human studies. Company leaders say cortisol plays a major role in conditions including diabetes, hypertension, and depression. The technology uses synthetic DNA-based molecular switches to generate real-time readings.   XX Biolinq shared new clinical findings for its Shine continuous glucose monitoring system. The needle-free device combines glucose monitoring with activity and sleep tracking .The system received FDA clearance in 2025. They're also looking at measuring lactate through the sensor. XX Long-time T1D advocate Kent Schnakenberg died last week. Schnakenberg was known in his community for using his love of bicycling to raise awareness of Type 1 diabetes. He also advocated for improving the lives of those living with the disease. Inspired by his niece, Michelle, who was diagnosed with juvenile diabetes when she was 13 years old, since 2014 he has traveled around the country cycling thousands of miles, speaking to hundreds and hundreds of kids and raising Money. According to Schnakenberg's family, he suffered a head trauma incident in his home on Wednesday. I spoke to Kent years ago – I believe the first year of the podcast. A sad loss but wonderful to see so many tributes and memories posted on social media in the last few days. https://diabetes-connections.com/john-costik-co-creator-of-nightscout-team-schnak/ https://www.wibw.com/2026/06/12/team-schnak-founder-kent-schnakenberg-passes-away/ XX And finally. Alexander Zverev (ts-ver-uhv) won the French Open, his first Grand Slam title. He lives with type 1, he paused a couple of time to check his blood sugar. He was diagnosed at age 4 and partners with Medtronic. "Becoming a professional tennis player was always my dream," Zverev shared in an article posted by Medtronic. "Early on, I was told that competing at the highest level with diabetes was impossible — but my family and I refused to accept that. That's why I'm partnering with Medtronic Diabetes: I want every person with diabetes to feel empowered to live the life they want." He also has a foundation committed to children with type 1 diabetes. Among other things, the life-saving insulin and other essential drugs are provided – also in developing countries." https://www.mensjournal.com/news/alexander-zverev-diabetes-wins-french-open-2026-medical-condition

In this episode of Retail War Games, I sat down with Gary Mac Herring, owner of Mary Mack's Inc., for a conversation rooted in pure entrepreneurial grit. Starting with a 19-year-old's payphone-operated snow cone stand, Gary explains how the lawless freedom of a 1980s childhood shaped his business philosophy: giving teams the room to make mistakes, get messy, and hustle is the only way to build resilience. Gary pulls back the curtain on cutting out middlemen, sharing the wild story of flying blind to the 2008 Canton Fair to secure direct, handshake-driven relationships with suppliers that established their 20-year manufacturing moat. We also break down a massive retail achievement: how Mary Mack's vertically integrated team successfully launched two entirely separate CPG brands into Target nationwide and a third of Walmart within a single two-week window. From the stark logistical realities of managing national 3PL fulfillment to the humbling "crickets" that often follow a seemingly perfect major industry trade show, Gary drops a phenomenal, low-key masterclass on what it truly takes to sell fun in a box and build an indestructible commercial brand.  

October 9th 2020, Wade felt uneasy about leaving his pregnant girlfriend Taylor at home because she was due to be induced later that day to give birth to their daughter,  Clancy Gail.  Later that morning, Taylor got up, got dressed, and left the house around 7am, drove to McDonald's, had breakfast then drove to her friend Reagan's house.  But as Taylor entered the house she picked up a mason jar and smashed her friend, 21 year old Reagan, over the head with it.  Taylor then pulled out a hammer and started beating her with it.   Taylor then stabbed Reagan over 100 times then sliced open her abdomen from hip to hip and removed Reagan's unborn daughter…. *content warning*. Lets go back a year before the murder and see what led to this absolute disaster.   Check out Patreon and our other shows!: Patreon.com/truecrimeguys Cryptic Soup w/ Thena & Kylee Strange & Unexplained True Crime Guys YouTube EVERYTHING TRUE CRIME GUYS:   https://linktr.ee/Truecrimeguysproductions True Crime Guys Music: True Crime Guys Music on Spotify OhMyGaia.com Code: Crimepine Patreon.com/truecrimeguys Patreon.com/sandupodcast Merch: truecrimeguys.threadless.com   Sources: https://www.reddit.com/r/TrueCrimeDiscussion/comments/1sj1fg7/a_fake_pregnancy_a_brutal_murder_and_a_stolen/ Maternal Instinct | Official Trailer | Netflix Interrogation Of Killer & Death Row Inmate (Taylor Parker) Fake Pregnancy & Murder.

Episode Chapter Summaries Chapter 1: The Rochester Connection & The Johnny Fever Dream (00:00 – 03:51) Anne introduces her longtime friend Tim Powers. They bond over their shared Rochester, NY, background, noting that growing up there fosters a natural sense of grit, humor, and raw honesty. Tim shares his origin story, starting as a kid with a voice that dropped way too early in 1978. Growing up in a massive, hilarious family where you had to be funny just to get noticed, Tim fell in love with radio icons and comedy legends, dreaming of becoming the next Johnny Fever. Chapter 2: The "Clark Kent" Years & Transition to the Improv Stage (03:52 – 08:34) Tim discusses his early years in radio, cueing up vinyl records, learning to think on his feet, and mastering spontaneous communication. However, minimum-wage radio couldn't pay the bills, leading to decades of "Clark Kent" day jobs. In his 30s, a friend dragged him to an improv theater tryout. Despite not being a traditional theater kid, Tim discovered that the improv stage was exactly where he learned structural acting, performance pacing, and the ultimate art of letting go. Chapter 3: The Philosophy of "Yes, And" in Voiceover (08:35 – 12:40) Tim shares his journey moving from his hometown to Los Angeles, training with iconic schools like The Groundlings and Upright Citizens Brigade, and eventually transitioning back behind the microphone under the mentorship of the late Lori Tritel and animation legend Michael Bell. Anne and Tim unpack the zen philosophy of "Yes, And." They discuss how voice actors spin too many mental plates trying to be perfect, when their only job is to accept the information given to them by the copy and boldly add their own life experiences to it. Chapter 4: Making Bold Choices vs. The Robotic Read (12:41 – 19:28) Anne and Tim challenge the idea of trying to read the casting director's mind. Tim points out that in an industry overflowing with talented talent, the only thing that separates you from a room full of people matching your exact technical specifications is your unique life experience. They look at how improv empowers talent to trust their gut and make fast, definitive character choices rather than hunting for a safe, sterile melody. Chapter 5: The "Dude" Knowledge & Grounding Corporate Narration (19:29 – 23:48) The conversation gets tactical as Anne and Tim explain the power of improvising your lead-ins. Tim demonstrates how a simple lead-in word like "dude" acts as the tip of a massive, subtextual iceberg. They argue that this work isn't just for wacky characters or high-energy commercials; it is also mandatory for all genres, including corporate narration and e-learning. To compete with cheap, perfect AI bots, human actors must bring a developed backstory, a natural breathing arc, and authentic physical transitions to the text. Chapter 6: The Truth About Demo Production & Acting Accountability (23:49 – 33:32) Anne and Tim have a candid, hard conversation about the current state of industry coaching. They address the hard truth that voiceover is a professional acting discipline that cannot be mastered in four to eight short weeks. They discuss their shared responsibility as demo producers, explaining why they refuse to cash a student's check for a demo if that student isn't consistently audition-ready. Tim shares a classic Hollywood story about the legendary "$500 demo trucks" parked outside major studios and warns why decision-makers spot those corner-cutting shortcuts instantly. Chapter 7: Garbage Plates, White Hots, and the Drop-In (33:33 – End) Tim details how talent can train with him via his zero-barrier-to-entry weekly drop-in Zoom workshop, Timprov, and his regular coaching site. The episode wraps up with a hilarious trip down memory lane as Anne and Tim talk classic Rochester culinary staples—including the legendary "garbage plate" hangover cure, Wegmans grocery stores, and Zweigel's white hots—before locking in plans for a future collaborative live-streaming workshop episode.   Top 10 Boss Takeaways Acting is reacting: Real conversations are never premeditated. Every single script you read requires you to look at the words as an immediate response to an event that just happened. Embrace the "Yes, And" mindset: Stop fighting the copy or over-analyzing the client's intent. Accept the scenario given to you by the writer, agree with it wholeheartedly, and add your specific central nervous system to it. Natural beats perfect: If voiceover were solely about flawless technical precision, one person would hold all the work. Auditions book because of raw human imperfection and compelling storytelling. Instinct over mechanics: If you are listening to the sound of your own voice or focusing on your vocal melody while recording, you are completely out of the scene. Ditch the "Voiceover Artist" label: Tim reminds us that artists make sandwiches at Subway. You are an actor who uses your voice. Own that title, and do the internal script analysis required of real actors. Master the customized lead-in: Never launch directly into the first line of text dry. Build a fully formed, improvised phrase right before the first word to establish a genuine emotional point of view. Develop the "Dude Knowledge": A single lead-in word can  serve as shorthand for a massive, unwritten backstory. Is your subtext "Dude, you're about to get fired" or "Dude, I've got the coolest secret to tell you"? Know the difference before you pull context into the microphone. AI can read—humans must connect: Perfect, pretty, and cheap reads can be generated by algorithms all day long. The only defense against automation is your messy, un-replicable life experience. Demos are a reflection of audition readiness: A professional demo is designed to show a casting director what you can deliver on the fly. If you aren't ready to book an elite audition on your own, you are not ready to cut a demo. Find coaches who hold you accountable: Avoid any production factories that promise stardom in record time. Work with industry thought leaders who aren't afraid to give you the hard, necessary truths about your current performance level.

Oooooh y'all are gonna love this episode so much! Jess Medland is here, and she talks us through carving out her unique path in a non-traditional way, being a woman in motorsport (what, like it's hard?), what it's like having millions of people watching your work, wanting to be special, the beautiful chaos behind Martin Brundle's Grid Walk, her viral video calling Oscar Piastri's crash at the Australian GP, having a job that gives you voices in your head, feeling like an alien, not knowing what the F you want to do with your life, and a special tip for torturing your partner LOL.Other topics include Abu Dhabi 2021, the changing media landscape, knowing what audiences care about, our collective obsession with Fred Vasseur, how she champions women in motorsport, what it's like being married to someone who also works in this space, if we're seeing too much of the WAGs, and how having great instincts (and following them) is an integral part of her job.She ditched a SkySports meeting for this, so y'all better listen up!You can see more from Jess on her Instagram.@GirlsJustWanna_F1 on Insta@GirlsJustWannaF1 on TikTok@GirlsWannaF1Pod on TwitterGirlsJustWannaF1@gmail.comAll the LinksThanks for listening!

What diabetes technology is actually helping people right now—and how do you figure out what fits best into your life?In this 100th episode of the TCOYD Podcast, Dr. E and Dr. P are joined by diabetes nurse practitioner and educator Rachael Sood, founder of The Diabetes Collective, to talk through the latest updates in diabetes technology and what they're seeing in real-world diabetes care.The conversation focuses on how much diabetes technology has changed over the past few years, from hybrid closed loop systems and CGMs to new developments in sensing and automation. Rather than focusing on one “best” device, the discussion centers around finding the right fit for each person's lifestyle, preferences, and goals.Dr. E, Dr. P, and Rachael also talk about where technology may be headed next, including dual glucose and ketone sensors, more compatibility between pumps and CGMs, and the possibility of systems that require less hands-on work from people living with diabetes. The takeaway is encouraging: there are more tools and options than ever before, and diabetes technology continues to move toward making daily management simpler, safer, and more flexible.Key Topics• Choosing the right insulin pump and CGM• Tubed vs. tubeless pump systems• How lifestyle and personal preference shape technology choices• The latest updates in automated insulin delivery systems• Dexcom G7 10-day vs. 15-day sensors• Abbott's dual glucose and ketone sensor technology• Medtronic's newest technology developments• Real-world conversations patients have about wearing devices• Continuous ketone monitoring and DKA prevention• The future of fully closed loop systems• Why compatibility between pumps and CGMs matters• Technology options for people with type 2 diabetes• Where diabetes technology may be headed next✨ Subscribe for practical diabetes management tips, technology updates, and treatment breakthroughs that help people with diabetes live healthier, more flexible lives.More diabetes resources:Website: tcoyd.orgBlog: tcoyd.org/blogPodcast: tcoydthepodcast.transistor.fmInstagram:   / tcoydFacebook:   / tcoydStay connected!

Five days before trial, a team chose to play defense witness deposition clips, instead of calling the witnesses live. Instinct tells us, training tells us: do it live. Live is better. Live is more persuasive. Live is much more catchy for cross exam. Video puts people to sleep. However, what I walk you through today really boils this down to a primacy question, or in other words, first impressions. In the case above, focus group data showed that clips were having far more impact in setting the stage, and locking in that first impression. So the team pivoted, and the trial took on an entirely new phase. Playing short clips produced visible juror annoyance, and later live testimony only confirmed the negative impression, contributing to a verdict of over $7 million. The choice between clips and live testimony should be data-driven. It could mean using either clips or live witnesses, but the principle is this: don't just assume that live is better. If you've got a trial coming up and a decision you're wrestling with, and you want to test it out to find the first impression, book a free call with me:   https://www.calendly.com/elizabethlarrick   In this episode, we cover: How primacy affects jurors' first impressions significantly. Why live witnesses are traditionally seen as more persuasive. Understanding juror perception is key to trial success, and focus groups help guide that understanding. Testing witness credibility through focus groups is essential. Why the first impression of a witness is hard to change once set.

On this episode of the Slowmade Podcast, I'm joined by artist and jeweler Francesca Kennedy for a deeply thoughtful conversation about creativity, instinct, imagination, and making without rigid rules.Francesca has spent decades creating, first in clothing design in the Bay Area and later in jewelry, and one of the things I loved most about this conversation was her willingness to stay open creatively. Rather than forcing herself into a formula or “brand,” she follows curiosity, experimentation, feeling, and play — allowing the work to evolve naturally over time.Together we talk about growing up “semi-feral,” the importance of imagination and solitude in a creative life, the changing landscape of art and business, one-of-a-kind work, travel, beauty, community, and the freedom that comes from creating work that feels true to who you are.This conversation felt especially meaningful to me because it also marks the 100th episode of the podcast. I walked away feeling inspired, creatively recharged, and reminded that some of the most interesting artists are the ones willing to keep exploring.You can find Francesca's work and follow along here:Instagram: @flkjewelryLove the Podcast?Support an episode: ⁠Click here to learn more!⁠Without your support I couldn't continue the Slowmade Podcast.

Aujourd'hui, je vous propose de rencontrer Fanny, la créatrice bretonne qui se cache derrière les patrons de couture Instinct Couture. Le parcours de Fanny est aussi atypique que passionnant : rien ne la prédestinait au modélisme de mode puisqu'elle est docteure en sciences des polymères ! C'est pendant ses études scientifiques qu'elle a demandé sa première machine à coudre au Papa Noël, et depuis, elle n'a plus jamais arrêté ! Dans cet épisode enregistré en direct lors du salon Pour l'amour du fil, Fanny nous raconte comment elle a transformé sa rigueur scientifique en un atout majeur pour le patronage numérique. Nous avons discuté de l'importance de la pédagogie, notamment à travers ses tutos vidéo, et de sa vision d'une couture accessible au quotidien. Fanny nous livre aussi avec une grande transparence la réalité de l'entrepreneuriat créatif : la gestion d'une apprentie, l'organisation millimétrée des salons, et ce défi permanent de trouver l'équilibre entre création pure et stratégie marketing. On a également parlé de la puissance de la communauté, de la gradation (qui n'est finalement que des mathématiques !), et de comment un seul patron peut devenir une infinité de versions grâce au hack. Un échange riche en "bonnes ondes" qui montre que si l'on met tout son cœur dans ses projets, il y a toujours une place pour s'épanouir dans le DIY. Bonne écoute !Mélanie

Michael plays devil's advocate and argues that human societies naturally refine their values over time. Monogamy works better. Less crime is good. These truths emerge through trial and error. Matt pushes back hard. Without truth and love as a fixed reference point, he argues, the word "better" loses all meaning. What looks like natural progress is actually borrowed capital from a civilization built on Judeo-Christian values. They explore Canada's assisted suicide program, the sterilization of young people through the transgender movement, and Nietzsche's warning that removing God does not just remove religion. It unmoors everything. This one goes deep. It is about what happens when a culture forgets where its values came from. And why substituting anything for God makes your world smaller. Cheers y'all

Summary In this episode, Andy welcomes back Steve Kahle, entrepreneur, executive, and fractional CIO, author of Leadership Recall: Harness Insights. Accelerate Innovation. LEAD WITH AUTHORITY. Steve first joined the podcast in episode 184 to discuss email overload. This time, the conversation turns to a challenge every leader faces: the forgetting curve. Research suggests we forget up to 83% of what we learn within a week, and Steve argues this is not just a learning problem, it's a leadership problem. Steve shares his CCR framework (Capture, Catalog, and Recall), along with practical tools such as the Anki flashcard app and the Email Me voice-note app, to build what he calls a learning operating system. The discussion covers how to design a recall fitness practice in as little as three minutes a day and how removing friction at every step keeps the system sustainable. If you're looking for a practical system to stop letting great insights slip away and start leading with more authority, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "I think God put in my heart to be a relentless optimizer. I like to see things work and work well." "When you really zoom out in life, those who are really successful have figured out what are the frameworks, what are the methodologies that work, and they simply apply those." "Our subconscious mind can handle about 11 million bits of data per second, but about 40 bits conscious mind." "I went all in. Christ totally transformed my heart, and I'm realizing that scripture memory is a superpower." "Time swiftly washes away the obvious." "Learning really is a privilege, and we need to be able to find time that works with our daily rhythms." "Three minutes a day is really all you need to be able to see tremendous traction on being able to recall things that matter" "Instead of 'I'm bad at remembering names,' you could, do a reframe like, 'Hey, I'm getting better at remembering people's names.'"

Send us Fan MailEpisode Focus: Understanding Instinct and Intuition Theme: Survival instincts, intuitive awareness, and personal growthEpisode OverviewIn this thought-provoking episode of Evolving Humans, host Julia Marie takes you on a journey to explore two essential forces that shape our behavior: instinct and intuition. Julia invites you to reflect on the moments in life when these two powerful inner guides emerge, helping you navigate your experiences and decisions.Julia begins by defining instinct as the biological, hardwired response that prioritizes survival, often manifesting in automatic reactions. Through vivid examples, she illustrates how instinct operates in our daily lives, keeping us safe from immediate threats. On the other hand, intuition is presented as a subtle, nuanced form of knowing that arises from our subconscious, shaped by personal experiences and insights.Listeners will gain clarity on the differences and connections between these two forces, learning to discern when each is at play in their lives. Julia provides practical exercises to help you cultivate awareness of your body's signals, encouraging you to pause and reflect before reacting to situations.Throughout the episode, Julia emphasizes the importance of recognizing both instinct and intuition as valuable aspects of your inner guidance system. By understanding how they work together, you can make more informed choices that align with your deeper well-being.Join Julia in this enlightening episode as she empowers you to embrace both instinct and intuition, fostering a harmonious relationship with these guiding forces in your life.Key Themes & Highlights✨ Defining Instinct and IntuitionUnderstanding instinct as a survival mechanismExploring intuition as a subtle form of knowing✨ Distinguishing Between the TwoRecognizing the different triggers and responsesIdentifying the intensity and urgency of signals✨ Practical ExercisesBody scan for awareness to differentiate between instinctual alarms and intuitive whispersCreating space between reaction and action to enhance decision-making✨ Self-Reflection QuestionsReflecting on past experiences with instinct and intuitionExploring how understanding these forces can impact your choicesBy the end of this episode, you'll be better equipped to navigate the complexities of your inner guidance system, allowing instinct and intuition to work together in your favor.

MacArthur Fellow and National Humanities Medalist Rebecca Newberger Goldstein, author of Plato at the Googleplex and The Mind-Body Problem, returns with a revelatory book about the primal drive that in our species alone has been transformed into one of our most persistent and universal motivations: the longing to matter. Drawing on biology, psychology, and philosophy, in The Mattering Instinct: How Our Deepest Longing Drives Us and Divides Us (Liveright Publishing, 2026) Goldstein argues that this need to matter―and the various “mattering projects” it inspires―is the source of our greatest progress and our deepest conflicts: the very crux of the human experience.Goldstein brings this profound idea to life through unforgettable stories of famous and not-so-famous people pursuing their unique mattering projects: the ragtime genius Scott Joplin, whose dedication to his ignored masterpiece, Treemonisha, ended in tragedy; the pioneering psychologist William James, who rose above the depression of his young adulthood to become perhaps the first great theorist of mattering; an impoverished Chinese woman who rescued abandoned newborns from the trash; and a neo-Nazi skinhead who as a young man dealt racial violence to feel he mattered but ultimately renounced that hateful past after realizing that mattering isn't a zero-sum game. These portraits illuminate how our instinct for significance shapes identity, relationships, culture, and conflict―and they point the way to a future where we all might see that there is, fundamentally, enough mattering to go around.Deeply revealing and insightful, and decades in the making, The Mattering Instinct is a must read for those curious about why we seek to matter to ourselves and others―and how this insatiable longing that drives us apart may be the key to finally understanding each other.

The long-term vision is that you walk into a clinic, hit record at the beginning of the day - you walk out at the end of the day, and you never put your hands in a computer. You just did medicine, and everything went into the right place.'Sound too good to be true? Maybe. But it's closer than you think.If you've already adopted a veterinary AI scribe, you'll know it's transformed your day. But scribes are just the gateway drug. The really interesting question is what your scribe connects to next - and the answer, for a growing number of vets, is the brain of the clinic itself: your practice management software.This conversation brings together Dr Caleb Frankel, ER vet and founder of Instinct - the PIMS used by many of the world's largest specialty and emergency hospitals, and now built out for general practice too, and Rohan Relan, founder of Scribble Vet. Earlier this year, Instinct acquired Scribble - and what they're building together is a glimpse of where veterinary software could be heading.You'll  hear:Why up to 80% of your veterinary work day is swallowed by a keyboard What "beyond scribing" looks like - from infographics, to embedded drug references that update in real time as you talk, to anaesthesia records that fill themselves in from across the room.The "easy to verify, hard to generate" principle - why the best AI tools in clinic don't try to replace you, they let you stay in the loop without doing the grunt work.What it means when your scribe and your PIMS talk to each other.Why an "open API" matters more than you think when individual vets can magically build for their own tools.The tech patient safety layer that can catch your mistakes before you make themWhere this all goes next - and why both guests believe we're still only seeing the beginning of what AI in clinical practice can do.We recorded this as a video with screen sharing, so if you want to follow along and see what these tools actually look like in action, watch it on Spotify.For our clinical content, show notes, and our full back catalogue, head to ⁠thevetvault.com⁠. While you're there, check out our subscriber-only clinical podcast, our newsletter, and come and hang out with us in real life at ⁠Vets On Tour.Topics and TimestampsWhy Instinct Acquired Scribble 2:08Beyond Scribes: The Bigger Vision 7:48Demo: Scribble + Instinct Integration 10:06Plums Drug Reference Integration 11:30Mid-Roll: Events & Announcements 14:49Pushing Notes to Instinct 16:27Scribble Features: Translations, Care Cards & More 19:29Record Review & AI Verifiability 21:28Instinct PIMS Overview 24:17Instinct Expands to General Practice 24:51Instinct Features: Estimates, Safety Warnings & Clinical Tools 32:03Embedded Scribble: Voice-Controlled Anesthesia Records 38:07AI Safety: Human in the Loop 38:46APIs, MCP Servers & Vibe Coding for Vets 45:02Open vs Closed PIMS Philosophy 50:39

Learn more about everything at our home page www.diabetes-connections.com  Okay.. our top story this week: XX The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Tzield (teplizumab-mzwv) for use in children in stage 2 type 1 diabetes (T1D) ages one and older. The approval expands the previous indication from those aged eight and above and was granted under a priority review process. This decision is supported by one-year data from the PETITE-T1D Phase IV study, which evaluated the safety and pharmacokinetics of Tzield in children under eight years old. Tzield was approved for use in individuals 8+ in stage 2 T1D in 2022. Since then, we have been working to expand the eligible population. This expansion effort includes individuals in stage 3 T1D, who can preserve endogenous insulin production for longer when they take Tzield and, most notably today, children in stage 2. https://www.breakthrought1d.org/news-and-updates/tzield-approved-for-children-ages-one-and-older-in-stage-2-t1d/   XX Big write up in the journal Pediatrics about screening for type 1. Citing the 2025 ADA Standards of Care in Diabetes, the opinion piece talks about how to engage the greater healthcare community.  It says: We aim to encourage the development of strategies to emphasize the importance of T1D early detection, integrate screening into routine health care encounters, and support implementation of T1D screening. Pediatricians and other primary care clinicians are well positioned for greater collaboration with the multidisciplinary team, ensuring early detection, timely intervention, and improved outcomes. https://publications.aap.org/pediatricsopenscience/article/2/2/1/207272/Type-1-Diabetes-Screening-in-Pediatrics-Putting?autologincheck=redirected   XX More info about GLP-1 drugs and people with type 1. New study shows off label use did not lead to DKA or pancreatitis in a large 1-year single-center study. Moreover, GLP-1 agonist use in people with T1D was associated with lower overall rates of hospitalization, as has occurred in type 2 diabetes Although GLP-1 agonists are not approved by the FDA for T1D management, off-label adjunctive use has risen for those with obesity. Semaglutide was the most commonly-used GLP-1 (65.5% of GLP-1 users) followed by tirzepatide (23.5%). The rest were using the older-generation drugs: liraglutide or dulaglutide. Lots more information to come on type 1 and glp 1-s in upcoming studies. https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/use-glp-1s-type-1-diabetes-not-linked-increased-dka-2026a1000d56 XX Health Canada ‌​has approved the first generic ​version of ​Danish ⁠drugmaker ⁠Novo ‌Nordisk's Ozempic drug. In January 2026, the Canadian patent for Ozempic will expire, paving the way for cheap generic versions of the semaglutide injections that help regulate blood sugar levels and appetite. Health Canada said this generic, like existing products, is indicated to be used for the "once-weekly treatment of adult patients with Type 2 diabetes to manage blood sugar levels." With three generics on the market, Tadrous said the price could drop to about $100 or less, depending on their dose. Health Canada said it's currently reviewing eight other generic submissions by different companies and expects to make a decision on these in the next few weeks and months. https://www.cbc.ca/news/health/ozempic-generic-health-canada-9.7180566 XX  Insulet has enrolled the first participant in a pivotal study for its fully closed-loop (FCL)A automated insulin delivery (AID) system for type 2 diabetes (T2D  The participants are between 18 – 75 years of age, living with T2D and using insulin (basal-bolus or basal-only). The Company received Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) approval in March 2026 from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The Company plans to submit a 510(k) filing to the FDA in 2027 and launch its FCL AID system for T2D in 2028.   XX insulet Corporation (PODD) has initiated a voluntary recall of certain lots of its Omnipod 5 insulin delivery Pods in the U.S. after detecting that some devices had a manufacturing defect that causes insulin leakage.   Patients using the affected devices could risk experiencing high blood glucose levels due to insufficient insulin delivery, the Acton, Massachusetts-based MedTech disclosed in a statement late Thursday. The company has already notified the FDA about the recall, which it said will affect nearly 1.5% of Omnipod 5 pod units it manufactures annually. The customers were advised to immediately seek a product replacement at no cost if a Pod from a defective lot is currently in use. https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/insulet-recalling-certain-defective-omnipod-insulin-delivery-devices/ar-AA1YyslT?apiversion=v2&domshim=1&noservercache=1&noservertelemetry=1&batchservertelemetry=1&renderwebcomponents=1&wcseo=1&bundles=feat-es2020-c XX Tandem Diabetes Care (Nasdaq:TNDM) gets FDA clearance for its automated insulin delivery (AID) technology for use in pregnancy. The FDA cleared the company's Control-IQ AID technology for use in what they call: pregnancy complicated by type 1 diabetes mellitus. Tandem says t:slim X2 and Mobi are the first and only commercially available AID systems cleared for use during pregnancy in the U.S. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/tandem-fda-clearance-aid-pregnancy-t1d/ XX Tandem also issued an urgent medical device correction for a software problem with its Mobi insulin pumps. The malfunction may cause insulin delivery to stop, causing high blood sugar if not addressed, the Food and Drug Administration said in a Wednesday recall notice. We told you about this back in October when Tandem sent a letter to customers notifying them of the fault and instructing them to update their pump software as soon as possible. The FDA now issued a class one recall, the most serious type. We just released a bonus episode all about Tanem – tubeless mobi and what else is in the pipeline. You can listen to that wherever you are listening to this.. it's the episode just before this one. https://www.medtechdive.com/news/tandem-recalls-mobi-insulin-pumps-over-software-malfunction/818260/   XX Switching CGMs didn't make a measurable difference for adults using MiniMed's pump system. In a real-world analysis presented at the International Conference on Advanced Technologies & Treatments for Diabetes, researchers found that CGM metrics for patients who switched from the Guardian 4 sensor (MiniMed) to Instinct by Abbott were able to maintain a time in range of greater than 75%. "When it comes to the automated insulin delivery system ... I think the sensor matters less and the system matters more," Viral N. Shah, MD, professor of medicine in the division of endocrinology and metabolism and director of diabetes clinical research at Indiana University Center for Diabetes and Metabolic Diseases, said during a presentation. "Having a different sensor with the system, I think the [glycemic] outcomes will still be what you want." I'm including this because the headline here seemed to indicate no CGM makes a difference, but this study only looked at two. https://www.healio.com/news/endocrinology/20260401/switching-cgm-sensors-does-not-impact-glycemic-outcomes-with-automated-insulin-delivery   XX Vitamin D supplementation may help delay or prevent disease progression in people with prediabetes.. in people who have specific variants in their vitamin D receptor gene. This was found after a second look at large study where researchers found vitamin d really did make a difference.. a second look with people who had a specific gene variation had much better results. "More research is needed to see if there are other factors that are associated with risk reduction." https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/vitamin-d-supplements-help-prevent-type-2-diabetes-right-gene-variants   XX Senseonics (Nasdaq:SENS) announced today that it initiated the first European launch of its Eversense 365 continuous glucose monitor (CGM). The launch comes a few months after the company picked up CE mark for the long-term, implantable CGM in January. Eversense 365 is the world's first 365-day CGM system. It also holds clearance as an integrated CGM (iCGM) system, meaning it can work with compatible medical devices. Those include insulin pumps as part of automated insulin delivery systems, like the Sequel Med Tech twiist system. The company said it made Eversense 365 available to the first patients in Sweden. It plans to bring the sensor to Germany, Spain and Italy in the coming weeks https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/senseonics-launches-eversense-365-europe/ XX A machine learning model can improve genetic prediction of type 1 diabetes by as much as 10%, show results from a University of California, San Diego study.   The researchers used the machine‑learning model T1GRS to improve on a gold standard polygenic genetic risk score used to predict who is likely to develop the condition called GRS2. The GRS2 polygenic risk score has been widely tested and can be used to predict newborns who are at high risk of developing type 1 diabetes. While early prediction can't necessarily stop the disease it can help to prevent emergencies like diabetic ketoacidosis at diagnosis, allow families time to prepare and could allow use of therapies to delay onset of the condition. In this study, Gaulton and colleagues carried out a genome‑wide association study in 20,355 people with type 1 diabetes and 797,363 non‑diabetic Europeans, as well as a further analysis around the MHC region in 10,107 diabetic and 19,639 nondiabetic individuals. https://www.insideprecisionmedicine.com/topics/molecular-dx/machine-learning-tool-helps-improve-type-1-diabetes-prediction/ XX Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.) said Monday that he will return to the upper chamber this week after taking time off for the death of his daughter, Madison.   The Virginia senator wrote on the social platform X, "As we remember our incredible daughter, Maddy, my family has been deeply touched by the outpouring of support we've received. Thank you to everyone for your kind words." Madison Warner, 36, died earlier this month after a decades-long battle with juvenile diabetes and other health issues. Mark Warner and his wife, Lisa Collis, wrote in a statement last Monday that they were "heartbroken beyond words" by their daughter's passing.   On Monday, the former Virginia governor said his daughter "was a deeply empathetic and engaged person" and that "as recently as the day she passed, she was full of ideas and suggestions" for him, including how he could improve his social media presence.   "She used to say to me: 'Dad, you have the power — you have to use it.' She pushed me to make the most of my position, to use my seat in the Senate to help people in meaningful ways," he added.       "If I can find any solace during this time, it's that I have the enormous privilege to serve Virginians and the responsibility to keep working for a better, more just world in Maddy's name."   Warner concluded, "I look forward to returning to the Senate this week and continuing that essential work."   Madison Warner is survived by two younger sisters.     An estimated than 2.1 million Americans, including about 314,000 children and adolescents younger than age 20, have diagnosed type 1 diabetes as of March — which is what juvenile diabetes is commonly called — according to the CDC's National Diabetes Statistics Report.   An estimated 11 million U.S. adults have undiagnosed diabetes, the report notes.   Symptoms of type 1 diabetes include feeling more thirsty than usual, urinating a lot, bed-wetting in children who have never done so, feeling very hungry and losing weight without trying, according to the Mayo Clinic. https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/5851605-mark-warner-diabetes-death/ XX Mattel, Inc. and Breakthrough T1D just won a Gold Halo Award for Best Cause Product Initiative for the launch of the first Barbie with T1D.  The Halo Awards recognize the most outstanding corporate social impact efforts over the past year.

Joe Reed, founder of Pulse, discusses how his student support platform is transforming the way schools identify and respond to struggling students. Rather than relying solely on traditional metrics like grades and attendance, Pulse brings together teachers, parents, counsellors, and therapists around a shared, real-time picture of each student's wellbeing. Joe shares the story behind the platform — rooted in over 15 years of community resilience work across South Africa and the United States — and explains how Pulse is designed to reduce teacher burden while delivering faster, more targeted support to the students who need it most.Five TakeawaysLate data leads to late intervention. Grades and attendance are important, but they're lagging indicators. By the time they dip, a student may already be in crisis. Pulse aims to surface earlier, softer signals before problems escalate.Every student gets an individualised plan. Rather than one-size-fits-all reporting, Pulse builds a personalised plan for each student, with specific goals tracked by everyone involved in that child's support network.Voice reporting is a game-changer for teachers. Instead of filling out forms after a long school day, teachers can speak into their phone for 30 seconds — capturing richer context in a fraction of the time. This makes compliance feel less like a burden and more like a natural part of the day.Pulse connects with existing school systems. Rather than asking schools to start from scratch, Pulse is designed to integrate alongside the tools already in use — lowering the barrier to adoption and making the transition as smooth as possible.The "why" runs deeper than edtech. Joe's motivation stems from over 15 years of community resilience work, first in South Africa and then across the US. Pulse wasn't built to sell software — it was built to restore communities by empowering the frontline educators and support staff within them.Chapters:00:00 - A New Approach to Teaching06:00 - Challenges in Educational Reporting and Support08:51 - Integrating Technology in Education18:32 - Introduction to the Learning Management System22:32 - The Intersection of Education and Community Development28:55 - Empowerment in Educationhttps://www.pulseconnect.ushttps://www.linkedin.com/company/pulseconnectus/

Fear can hit in a split second, before we have words for it, and then we're left wondering why we reacted the way we did. With this episode we begin our 4 part series about fear by getting specific about the science. With Jordyn Lawson, Chief Residential Officer at Genesis Women's Shelter & Support, we unpack what fear really is in the brain and body, why it's tied to survival, and how the amygdala works like a smoke alarm that can shut down the thinking brain when it senses danger.We talk through fight, flight, freeze, and fawn, including why “freeze” can feel like total paralysis and why memory can get fuzzy during terrifying moments. We also explore the difference between real threat and perceived threat, and how trauma can make the nervous system extra sensitive to cues that resemble past danger. For survivors of domestic violence, that context matters: fear often tracks patterns, and instinct can be protective even when other people dismiss it.From there, we move into PTSD and complex PTSD, the impact of chronic fear on adults and children, and the behaviors that can grow out of survival mode, like anger, avoidance, people-pleasing, isolation, perfectionism, and dysregulation. We close with practical nervous system regulation tools you can use right away, including simple grounding, box breathing, five-finger breathing, cold water, and paced movement, plus the mindset shift we keep coming back to: fear isn't the problem, what happened is.

In this Flower Full Moon episode, Amy Anthony (NYC aromatherapist) explores how instinct rises in May — not as chaos, but as young yang emerging. Through a mythic ecological lens, she turns to Artemis and Pan to understand this seasonal polarity shift: mature yin creating the boundary that protects new vitality.Amy begins with a reading of Carol Tufts' “Hades and Persephone,” then traces how winter's containment gives way to spring's full-on blossoming of play, appetite, and instinct. She explores Jung's instinctual map, the ecology of protection, and shares a new myth she wrote for this season — a tale of Artemis and Pan that reveals what happens when instinct ignores the boundary that holds it.The episode closes with Violet Leaf, the Artemis of plants: cool, shaded, and uninterested in anyone's nonsense. A plant ally for Flower Moon time, Violet moderates rising yang with cool clarity rather than control.This episode weaves aromatherapy, myth, seasonal ecology, and psyche into one seasonal teaching: young-yang vitality stays whole only when a clear, unsentimental boundary holds it — not coddling, not controlling, simply holding the field so instinct doesn't collapse into chaos.Read the companion article — with two poems for Artemis and more information on Violet Leaf.Access: Amy's Free Online Library of classes and articles.

On this special Mother's Day 2026 episode of Add Passion and Stir, host Billy Shore and co-host Debbie Shore talk with Lauren Bush Lauren, founder of Feed, and Nance Hastings, chair of the National Mother's Day Council and vice president of the Father's Day Mother's Day Council. Lauren shares how a college experience abroad and time with the World Food Program inspired her to create Feed, which has helped provide more than 128 million meals to children around the world. Nance reflects on a career in beauty and philanthropy, her work leading the Mother's Day and Father's Day Councils, and the impact of fundraising for childhood hunger and family support. Together, they explore why mothers are central to children's health, economic mobility, and long-term well-being, and why access to nutritious food matters just as much as access to food itself. This episode is a celebration of moms, mission-driven leadership, and the power of practical action to help children thrive.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Welcome to Manufacturing Greatness with Trevor Blondeel, where we work with organizations to manufacture greatness by leveraging resources you already have to achieve greater retention, productivity, and profits. To learn more, visit www.manufacturinggreatness.com and click here to subscribe to Trevor's monthly newsletter. Now, let's jump in! What if the biggest threat to your production efficiency, workforce development, and manufacturing productivity was not a supply chain disruption or a failed kaizen event — but the voice inside your own head? On this episode of Manufacturing Greatness, learn more with Dr. Jenn Donahue, a retired U.S. Navy Captain with 27 years of military service, combat veteran, civil engineer, and one of only 3% of Navy officers to ever reach her rank. She holds a doctorate from UC Berkeley, has been inducted into the National Academy of Engineering, and is the author of Becoming the Warrior. Jenn brings her hard-won leadership experience to the shop floor, connecting the mental battles fought in combat zones directly to the self-doubt that holds back frontline supervisors, shift supervisors, and plant leadership teams every day. We cover practical tools for performance management, communication skills, and leadership development — including why the voice in your head might be the real reason your toughest conversations keep getting pushed to tomorrow. If you're serious about change management, talent retention, and building a stronger safety culture and operations management system, this episode is your starting point. 1:00 — Promoting top performers into leadership roles often creates a confidence problem, not a skills problem. 01:30 — Self-doubt shows up even in the most high-pressure environments, and recognizing it is the first step toward stronger leadership development. 03:00 — Several competing internal voices influence decision making every day, and building self-awareness around them is critical for frontline supervisors and plant leadership teams. 04:30 — The Mean Little Voice quietly erodes confidence by convincing leaders they are not worthy of their position, undermining performance management and talent retention. 05:00 — The Sneaky Little Bastard redirects leaders away from difficult conversations and hard decisions, creating real gaps in accountability, communication skills, and production efficiency. 08:30 — Instinct and intuition are distinct forces in leadership decision making, and understanding the difference helps leaders assess whether hesitation is rational or just self-preservation. 10:30 — A simple gut-check question — am I being rational, or am I being selfish — can help manufacturing leaders cut through avoidance and act in the best interest of their operation. 14:30 — The four-step Perceive, Assess, Ready, Act framework gives leaders a practical tool for working through self-doubt and taking confident action under pressure. 22:00 — Humility and imposter syndrome are not the same thing, and confusing the two causes leaders to discount the experience and results they have already earned. 29:00 — Recalling past wins, people developed, and problems solved is one of the most powerful ways to build the positive bias that drives confident leadership on the shop floor.

What happens when your child seems sick, but everything keeps coming back normal? For a lot of parents, the scariest part isn't the diagnosis. It's the not knowing. It's being told everything looks fine when your gut is telling you something is off. This week, Katie sits down with Kayleigh, a medical assistant and mom of three, to share the story of her daughter Kanessa. Almost a year after a freak eye injury that seemed to heal, Kanessa suddenly got sick. At first, it looked like a simple virus. But within days, things escalated fast. Kaylee shares what it was like trying to make sense of symptoms that didn't quite add up. Normal test results. A child who seemed okay one minute and not the next. And that moment when everything changed with one scan. From there, their world shifted quickly. A brain bleed. A diagnosis of bacterial meningitis. Emergency surgery. A 40-day hospital stay. Kaylee talks about what it took to keep going through all of it, while also caring for a newborn and being away from her other child. She also shares how she supported Kanessa through it all. Being honest about what was happening. Preparing her for procedures. Letting her ask questions. And leaning on Child Life in a way that made a huge difference for both of them. If you've ever wondered if you're overreacting or if you should push for more answers, this episode will stay with you. Kaylee's story is a reminder to trust yourself and keep advocating.

In this episode, Minter Dial welcomes back Rana Gujral, entrepreneur and longtime AI innovator, for a probing discussion around his new book, The AI Instinct: The Future of AI and Human Decision Making. With over two decades of hands-on experience building advanced cognitive systems, Rana unpacks how artificial intelligence is subtly entering—and even reshaping—the loop of human perception, attention, and judgement. The conversation delves into the heart of hybrid cognition, as Rana argues that the next frontier isn't man or machine alone, but the emergence of coupled human–AI systems. Drawing on both practical business experience and philosophical inquiry, he explores the dangers and promise of this integration: how AI tools extend and sometimes diminish our cognitive abilities, the emergence of artificial general experience (AGE) as a more meaningful benchmark than AGI, and what it means for team accountability when no single agent is fully in charge. The pair discuss the new challenges of agency and autonomy in a world where algorithms can sculpt our attention before we even realise it, and consider the critical importance of transparency, audit trails, and ethical guardrails in high-stakes environments. Whether you are wrestling with the practicalities of AI-enabled decision making, concerned about the future of human agency, or simply curious about how emotional signals and synthetic voices are shaping our everyday lives, this episode is an invitation to reflect on what makes us human in the age of the algorithm. Tune in as Speaker A and Rana debate the boundaries, responsibilities, and real-world implications of artificial intelligence—and offer a timely framework for leading and living alongside machines.
