Stress is often associated with obvious challenges such as heat or transportation, but Dr. Baumgard explains that many stressors trigger similar biological responses. Understanding these shared pathways provides important insight into how stress influences animal health, nutrient utilization, immune function, and ultimately dairy cow performance. (00:00 – 05:16)  The panel examines common stressors encountered in dairy systems, including heat stress, weaning, overcrowding, feed interruptions, dehorning, environmental noise, facility design challenges, and routine management disruptions. The speakers emphasize that stress is not always obvious. In addition, they note that multiple seemingly minor challenges can collectively impact health, welfare, and productivity. (05:17 – 08:29)  A major portion of the discussion focuses on what happens inside the animal during periods of stress. Dr. Baumgard explains how activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis triggers a cascade involving mast cell signaling, reduced mucus production, and increased intestinal permeability. These physiological changes can create conditions that favor pathogen growth. In addition, they can increase inflammation, and reduce productive efficiency. (08:30 – 11:12)  The conversation then turns to gastrointestinal barrier dysfunction, often referred to as "leaky gut." The panel discusses the gut's role as a critical defense system and explains why maintaining intestinal integrity is essential for nutrient absorption, immune regulation, and overall animal health. When stress compromises this barrier, animals become more susceptible to inflammation and disease challenges. (11:13 – 13:26)  While nutrition can play a supportive role, Dr. Baumgard argues that reducing stress through management practices often delivers the greatest return on investment. Preventing stress before it occurs is frequently more effective than attempting to correct physiological disruptions after they have already begun. (13:27 – 14:18)  The speakers also explore the concept of adaptation and stacked stressors, particularly during the transition period. Transition cows frequently encounter multiple challenges simultaneously. Moreover, the cumulative effects of several stressors may overwhelm an animal's ability to adapt. This helps explain why health disorders and performance declines often emerge during critical production stages. (14:19 – 17:28) Heat stress receives special attention as one of the most economically significant stressors affecting dairy cattle worldwide. Dr. Baumgard details how heat stress redistributes blood flow away from the gastrointestinal tract, leading to gut hypoxia and impaired intestinal function. The discussion also examines why cows naturally reduce feed intake during hot conditions. In addition, it explains why cooling and management interventions often outperform nutritional strategies alone. (17:29 – 27:04) The panel then reviews nutritional approaches that may help support animals during periods of stress. While antioxidant responses have been inconsistent across research studies, Dr. Baumgard highlights evidence suggesting that highly bioavailable zinc sources can consistently support intestinal integrity. These zinc sources can also improve resilience during stressful events. (27:05 – 32:22) Another key topic is immune activation and nutrient partitioning. The speakers explain that activated immune systems become major consumers of glucose and amino acids, diverting nutrients away from productive functions such as milk synthesis. This shift helps explain why production losses during stressful periods often exceed what would be expected from reduced feed intake alone. (32:23 – 37:13)  The episode concludes with a discussion on inflammation, endotoxin handling, mineral metabolism, hypocalcemia, and future research priorities. The panel examines how inflammation influences calcium and trace mineral dynamics during the transition period. Furthermore, they discuss the ongoing challenge of identifying practical solutions to stress-induced gut barrier dysfunction. (37:14 – 45:38) Understanding stress physiology requires looking beyond individual stress events and recognizing the interconnected biological systems that influence animal performance. Whether stress originates from environmental conditions, management practices, or physiological demands, many stressors converge on common pathways that affect gut health, immune function, nutrient utilization, and productivity. This episode provides valuable insight into the mechanisms behind those responses. Moreover, it highlights why effective stress management remains one of the most powerful tools for improving dairy cattle health and performance.

The Narrative Conversion Engine: Hollywood Storytelling Mechanics, Organic Search, and Automated CRM Architecture with Drew DorenfestIn a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur Podcast, host Josh Elledge sat down with Drew Dorenfest, the Founder of Client Magnet CRM, to examine how business leaders can apply high-stakes entertainment marketing principles to eliminate client acquisition friction. Drew, a former Hollywood trailer editor turned technology founder and growth consultant, details his strategic transition from editing blockbuster film campaigns to building automated lead-generation engines for local service enterprises and mid-market firms. This conversation delivers an intentional blueprint for business owners who want to refine their core messaging, build compounding organic search authority, deploy automated email workflows, and convert customer reviews into predictable local search dominant rankings.The Narrative Conversion Engine: Hollywood Storytelling Mechanics, Organic Search, and Automated CRM ArchitectureThe fundamental error made by many scaling small businesses and professional service providers is relying on volatile social media algorithms or disruptive cold outreach to drive sustainable revenue growth. Drew Dorenfest explains that earning customer attention in a crowded digital marketplace requires applying cinematic storytelling mechanics—condensing complex value propositions into clear, high-impact hooks that communicate brand differentiation within the first five seconds of a site visit. Rather than interrupting passive users on social feeds, business leaders must focus their capital on capturing high-intent search traffic via search engine optimization. Investing in long-term technical and on-page SEO ensures that when prospective clients are actively searching for solutions, the business appears prominently, building compounding inbound lead momentum that outlasts temporary paid ad campaigns.To maximize customer lifetime value and eliminate pipeline volatility, scaling enterprises must pair organic search acquisition with automated customer relationship management workflows. Relying solely on one-off purchases or sporadic manual follow-ups creates unnecessary customer churn, whereas establishing automated email flows—such as post-purchase onboarding sequences, re-engagement triggers, and targeted review collection prompts—creates a direct, owned communication channel. Segmenting email audiences by past purchase history and maintaining a consistent monthly sending cadence allows companies to drive predictable repeat revenue without paying additional customer acquisition costs. Automating these backend touchpoints keeps the brand top-of-mind, transforming one-time buyers into loyal, high-value brand advocates.Furthermore, dominating local market search results demands that business owners treat client review collection as a standardized, automated operational process rather than an afterthought. Search algorithms heavily favor local companies that demonstrate high review volume, recent feedback, and proactive business responses, making customer testimonials a primary driver for local search engine visibility. Integrating direct review links into automated CRM follow-up sequences ensures a steady stream of verified social proof that builds immediate buyer trust. When clear cinematic messaging, disciplined search engine optimization, automated email marketing, and systematic review collection are synthesized into a single growth framework, an organization eliminates client acquisition bottlenecks, protects its profit margins, and predictably expands enterprise valuation.About Drew DorenfestDrew Dorenfest is the Founder of Client Magnet CRM, an expert digital marketing consultant, and a former Hollywood trailer editor with over two decades of creative storytelling experience. Having edited marketing campaigns for major film franchises and television series—including Spider-Man, Star Trek, and Power—Drew now specializes in helping small business owners and regional service providers build automated client acquisition engines. He is a recognized growth strategist focused on helping business leaders leverage search engine optimization, email marketing, and automated CRM technology to scale predictable revenue.About Client Magnet CRMClient Magnet CRM is an elite marketing technology advisory and automated CRM platform engineered to help small-to-mid-sized businesses optimize lead acquisition and client retention. The company specializes in delivering custom search engine optimization playbooks, automated email marketing flows, local review generation systems, and brand messaging refinement.

By standardizing internal marketing workflows, building owned communication channels, and automating review acquisition, business leaders can transform an unpredictable lead pipeline into a highly structured, self-sustaining growth engine.More from The Thoughtful Entrepreneur

"I applaud anyone out there who's done the book circuit and trying to reach readers, because I'm not in this to make a lot of money, not at all. I just want people to read the story. I kind of felt like I owed it to the book to do my end of this effort. That's kind of fueled me to keep going too," says Shanda McManus, MD, author of Brother Epistles: A Sister's Memoir.Today we have Shanda McManus. I'm sorry, Dr. Shanda McManus, whose debut book is a memoir titled Brother Epistles. It is a memoir written in letters to her brother Monir, who was murdered in 1992 in a drive-by shooting in Philadelphia. Monir was an Army veteran and when he was out of the army, he was involved in the drug trade and got caught up in a turf dispute. In Shanda's telling, we learn so much about Monir and you feel the love and the grief nearly 25 years after his death. It's a wonderful book and you're going to hear quite a bit about it shortly.So Shanda, this was nice, this was fun. You're really going to dig it. She's an assistant professor of family medicine at Hackensack Meridian School of Medicine. Brother Epistles, published by Split Lip Press is her first book and it received a starred notice from Kirkus Reviews. Shanda's writing has appeared in Bellevue Literary Review, Intima: A Journal of Narrative Medicine, among other places.

Send us Fan MailMichigan lawyer Patrick Barone is the third Beat the Prosecution podcast guest who has both attended the Trial Lawyers College and been active with the National College for DUI Defense. Patrick for years pursued a DWI defense focus before attending the TLC, and then he jumped both feet forward into intensive learning and training with psychodrama -- which is a major feature of the Trial Lawyers College that has been covered numerous times on this podcast -- becoming certified in psychodrama after many years of devoting substantial time to this approach of psychotherapy and working out challenges through role playing and reverse role playing, and much more.  As his and his wife Elizabeth Corby's Michigan Psychodrama Center page says, Patrick is a Board Certified trainer, educator and practitioner of psychodrama, sociometry and group psychotherapy, which is no small feat to add to an already busy criminal defense law practice. Listen as Patrick addresses with Fairfax criminal defense lawyer Jon Katz how psychodrama can be used for lawyers to prepare their entire trial and courtroom presentations, and prepare their clients to testify. Patrick talks about the possibility of speaking from the first person as the breathalyzer machine in a DUI case, taking exception to the breath test operator who does not enable the machine to do its job properly by not inspecting the suspect's mouth for foreign objects, to preclude the machine from testing for mouth alcohol rather than deep lung alcohol. Patrick  tells of one instance about using psychodrama doubling to relate and connect directly with his client. He talks about using psychodrama on himself to work out his issues with authority, in order to unblock his challenging interactions with a judge he repeatedly encounters. He differentiates the difference between righteous indignation at a police officer during cross examination, and alienating jurors who do not perceive a justification to be indignant. He talks about advocating in the moment, and understanding others from their perspective and from putting ourselves into their shoes. Beyond all that, Patrick talks of pursuing a pre-med path in college and then retooling to be a lawyer over such matters as his strong support for a robustly protected Second Amendment. He repeatedly writes about artificial intelligence for lawyers. Each month, he and his wife hold psychodrama sessions. Patrick makes a good point that often the psychodramatists in the room are not lawyers, and the lawyers are usually not psychodramatists. He is both. This Beat the Prosecution episode is also available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPdJ-7Tf_Zc and https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/winning-by-integrating-with-the-moment-patrick-barone/id1721413675?i=1000783081810This podcast with Fairfax, Virginia criminal / DUI lawyer Jon Katz is playable on all devices at podcast.BeatTheProsecution.com.

The Unicorn Growth Formula: Operational Focus, Founder Mindset, and AI Restructuring with Cornelius SchmahlIn a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur Podcast, host Josh Elledge sat down with Cornelius Schmahl, the Founder of Unicorn Coach, angel investor, and former interim COO at Uber Moscow, to examine the distinct operational mechanics that separate hyper-growth billion-dollar enterprises from standard middle-market companies. Cornelius, a veteran scale-up executive and founder performance strategist, details how scaling a business requires an intentional alignment of psychological grounding, ruthless operational focus, and AI-driven organizational restructuring. This conversation delivers an essential strategic blueprint for founders, C-suite executives, and private equity advisors who want to eliminate operational fat, optimize executive decision-making, and leverage advanced automation to build agile, high-valuation enterprises.The Architecture of Hyper-Growth: Unlocking High-Leverage Execution and AI RestructuringThe primary bottleneck preventing mid-market companies and venture-backed startups from achieving exponential scale is a failure of executive focus, where leadership spreads critical capital and labor across low-yielding initiatives. Cornelius Schmahl explains that true high-leverage execution demands applying the 80/20 rule to ruthlessly "trim the fat"—identifying the core 20% of products, services, and operational touchpoints that generate the majority of enterprise value and cutting non-essential distractions. By auditing operations to isolate the company's most defensible asset, executives can rebuild corporate processes around automated software engines, consolidating legacy workflows and dramatically reducing administrative overhead. Rebuilding an organization around its core value proposition allows mid-sized enterprises to operate with lean, high-performing teams, freeing up capital while empowering founders to focus on visionary strategy.Equally critical to scaling an enterprise is the mental clarity and psychological resilience of the chief executive, whose internal state directly impacts every capital allocation decision. High-pressure corporate environments routinely induce founder burnout, leading to decision fatigue, unforced strategic errors, and systemic organizational drag. Integrating micro-habits like five-minute daily meditation sessions, structured breathwork protocols, and targeted executive coaching provides leaders with the psychological grounding necessary to navigate high-stakes market volatility calmly. Addressing personal blind spots and emotional triggers prevents leaders from making fear-based choices, turning personal self-regulation into a high-ROI executive skill that protects company culture and preserves long-term enterprise value.Ultimately, sustaining hyper-growth requires founders to distinguish between vanity metrics and true high-leverage business activities, ensuring every operational unit directly advances the primary corporate objective. Re-engineering legacy organizational charts through artificial intelligence and automated workflow pipelines enables companies to transition from bloated administrative overhead to agile, tech-enabled execution. By combining sharp market positioning, disciplined executive mental habits, and automated backend infrastructure, leadership can accelerate profit margins while reducing reliance on key individuals. When disciplined psychological grounding, ruthless operational focus, and AI-driven process automation are synthesized into a single growth framework, an enterprise eliminates operational friction, protects its bottom line, and predictably multiplies its market valuation.About Cornelius SchmahlCornelius Schmahl is the Founder of Unicorn Coach, an active angel investor, and an international scale-up strategist. Drawing from extensive executive experience—including serving as interim COO at Uber Moscow and coaching high-growth founders across Europe and North America—Cornelius specializes in helping business leaders scale operations and optimize performance. He is a recognized thought leader focused on helping executives eliminate operational bloat, master high-stakes decision-making, and deploy artificial intelligence to build sustainable, high-valuation enterprises.About Unicorn CoachUnicorn Coach is an elite executive advisory firm and scale-up consultancy engineered to help founders, C-suite executives, and solo entrepreneurs overcome operational scaling plateaus. The firm specializes in delivering comprehensive business audits, AI-driven process restructuring, high-leverage operational mapping, and founder mental performance coaching.

By standardizing internal corporate governance, eliminating non-essential workflows, and leveraging automated software tools, business leaders can transform an overwhelming daily operation into a highly structured, self-sustaining growth engine.More from The Thoughtful Entrepreneur

Do you ever wonder why you can give a great presentation, receive compliments from the audience, and still walk away without new clients? Or maybe you've been told you're an expert in your field, and you're not sure how to turn your expertise into thought leadership that supports lead generation and inspires people to hire you. If you can relate, this episode is for you. In this Mastering Excellence conversation, Nikki welcomes speaking strategist and thought leadership expert Carol Cox to explore how to create presentations that do more than educate. Learn how to combine thought leadership with relationship-based selling so your talks create meaningful impact while naturally generating new business. The Transformation Before listening, you may find yourself: Packing your presentations with information but wondering why they don't generate clients. Believing your expertise alone should be enough to inspire people to hire you. Feeling uncertain about how to naturally talk about your services from the stage. Struggling to balance serving your audience with growing your business.   After listening, you learn how to: Create presentations that inspire action instead of simply delivering information. Position yourself as a thought leader, not just an expert. Plant sales seeds naturally throughout your presentation. Build trust and curiosity that leads to meaningful business conversations. What You Learn In this episode, Nikki and Carol discuss: Why today's audiences don't need more information. They need leadership. The difference between expertise and thought leadership. How to integrate lead generation into a presentation without sounding promotional. Why personal stories create stronger audience connection. How frameworks make your ideas memorable and distinguish your business. Why curiosity is often more persuasive than information. Carol's Expert Trap Framework One of Carol's signature concepts is The Expert Trap. Many entrepreneurs spend years building expertise, earning certifications, and serving clients. While expertise creates credibility, it isn't enough to make you memorable. Carol explains that thought leadership happens when you layer your expertise with: A compelling core idea.

Integrating clinical information with social, behavioral, and environmental factors and using AI to augment human care coordinators enables them to identify patient needs proactively and provide personalized support.  The model emphasizes building trust through in-person engagement while leveraging digital tools to enhance the care manager's ability to process complex data and deliver real-time insights. Greg explains, "We're a data-first company that is focused on improving healthcare outcomes for underserved communities. That's pretty broad. But if you think about traditional healthcare, especially in the United States, if you look at 20% of patients or individuals driving about 80% of costs in healthcare. And traditional healthcare has not been able to really put a dent in this over time. And really the reason is that traditional healthcare has not addressed the true drivers of people's health, especially in underserved communities."   "Traditional healthcare has not done a good job of addressing those non-clinical issues, and it's done an even worse job of orchestrating and ensuring that across all those dimensions, we're addressing people's health. And so, in terms of the mission, it's about breaking down the silos in people's care and in the data available to those who support them.

Third-generation cattle producer Tom Lahey always knew he wanted to return home to the family farm near Goondiwindi. But after working across Western Australia and travelling through the United States to visit some of the world's leading regenerative ranches, he came back with a different perspective on what the future of Australian grazing could look like.Rather than chasing quick wins, Tom has focused on building a more resilient business by improving soil health, measuring grazing performance and making better decisions with data. Over the past five years, AgriWebb has become a central part of that journey, helping the family move from relying on notebooks and memory to having real-time information that supports day-to-day management and long-term planning.In this episode, Tom shares how travel reshaped his thinking, why healthy soil and healthy people go hand in hand, and how technology is helping his family make more confident decisions while creating a stronger future for the next generation.Key insights from the conversation:Growing up on a family cattle property near GoondiwindiHow travelling through the US changed his approach to grazing and soil healthBringing new ideas back into a multi-generational family businessWhy AgriWebb became the foundation for better decision-makingUsing grazing data to navigate dry seasons with confidenceHow technology supports carbon projects and tells the story behind farming practicesThe importance of measuring progress instead of relying on memoryWhy the future of farming will rely on connected technology and better dataBuilding a legacy focused on healthy soils, healthy businesses and healthy peopleChapters:00:00 Introduction to Tom Lahey and his farm journey00:28 Tom's background and family farm in Wyaga02:08 Growing up on the family farm and passion for farming04:56 Adopting a progressive mindset in agriculture06:53 Experience in Western Australia and genetic improvements07:35 Trip to the US and insights into regenerative ranching09:42 Soil health, environment, and profitability11:30 Implementing grazing techniques post-US trip13:20 Using AgriWebb for farm management and decision making17:52 Integrating data and technology in farm operations20:26 Evolution of farm management tools over five years22:38 Future plans for technology and farm legacy

In this episode of the Public Health Joy Podcast, Dr. Joyee sits down with her friend, coach, and sister in faith, Reesi Wilson. As a funnel strategist, master copywriter, and profitability coach for women entrepreneurs, she joins Dr. Joyee for a raw, full-circle conversation about the journey it took to get here. They're tracing the story back to where it started: Dr. Joyee burnt out, underpricing herself, and still operating on academic time long after she'd left academia. Reesi walks us through the years, the pivot, the burnout, the boundaries, the trip to Mexico that cracked everything open, the summit that was born from a dream, and the "wilderness season" that followed when obedience didn't come with an immediate reward. They get into it: what happens when you do everything "right" and the harvest still doesn't come right away? What does it look like to keep your faith at the center of your business, even when nobody teaches you how to market that? And how do you know when a hard season is actually a restoration season in disguise? Reesi gets personal by discussing praying and fasting alongside Dr. Joyee through the hardest stretches, and reminding her that our actions always reveal what we truly believe. This episode is a masterclass in burnout recovery, faith-fueled entrepreneurship, and trusting the process even when the outcome isn't instant. If you've ever wondered whether it's possible to build a thriving business without leaving your faith at the door, this episode is for you. Key PointsFaith and entrepreneurship [32:03 – 35:10]Overcoming burnout and scarcity mindset [12:13 – 17:07]Building impactful public health programs [25:23 – 30:57]The role of rest and reflection in success [20:16 – 25:22]Integrating faith into professional life [08:12 – 09:08]If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and leave a review!

Alzheimer's disease can begin developing years before memory and thinking problems become noticeable. Iris Broce-Diaz, Ph.D., of UC San Diego is developing accessible, noninvasive, and cost-effective tools to help primary care physicians and neurologists identify people at higher risk earlier. Her models combine information from cognitive assessments, brain imaging, genetics, and PET scans to estimate the likelihood that mild cognitive impairment will progress within five years. Combining multiple measures improves the models' ability to separate higher- and lower-risk patients. Broce-Diaz also plans to add women-specific factors, including menopause history, hormone therapy, reproductive history, endocrine markers, and symptoms. The goal is to support better referrals, guide monitoring, and help eligible patients consider treatment sooner. Earlier risk assessment could also strengthen clinical trials and make dementia care more useful across different health systems. Series: "Motherhood Channel" [Health and Medicine] [Show ID: 41632]

In this episode of The Feminine Frequency Podcast, Amy Natalie sits down with local Asheville sister and somatic trauma expert Luna Dietrich. Together, they explore the intricate world of the nervous system and reframe what it means to live as a highly sensitive woman in a fast-paced world. Moving away from the narrative that sensitivity is a burden, but rather viewing it as a potent, ancient gift of deep attunement. From decoding the subtle layers of the "freeze" response to learning how to honor our internal seasons and contractions, this conversation is a soothing invitation to step out of masculine overdrive and drop into a gentle, non-linear yin space of true self-acceptance.Themes:In an excess-yang world that rewards overriding our bodies, sensitivity is actually an ancient gift of deep discernment—acting as a vital internal compass for boundaries and protection.How using nature imagery can help un-shame our internal states, allowing the nervous system to recalibrate without judgment.Freeze is an intelligent survival strategy that exists on a spectrum—ranging from everyday brain fog and confusion to deep, somatic numbing within our organs and timeline.Fighting the natural need to slow down or turn inward only locks the body deeper into chronic burnout and freeze.High-achieving women often work until they collapse. Intentionally "tapering" down from high-momentum tasks builds internal self-trust, proving to the body that it is safe to achieve because a gentle landing is guaranteed.Integrating your sensitive parts simply takes your high-achieving self off autopilot, allowing all your gifts to beautifully coexist.Deep chronic freeze cannot be fixed with a checklist. It requires an immense, agenda-free yin presence and safe co-regulation to allow the body to thaw organically.SPECIAL OFFER:

When it comes to marriage, most conversations focus solely on the couple, but what about the intricate web of family relationships that come with it?Kevin Pesak, director of OCIA and marriage preparation at St. Mary's Catholic Center, shares invaluable insights on how couples can leave and cleave well—treading the delicate line between honoring family traditions and building a new normal together.His perspective reveals that the secret to a successful marriage isn't just about two people, but about navigating and integrating two entirely new family systems with grace and humility. Kevin unpacks practical strategies for both couples and parents. You'll discover why honesty, humility, and early conversations about expectations are critical for avoiding tension and misunderstandings—especially around holidays, traditions, and in-law relationships. Kevin shares specific advice for parents on how to support their children's marital journey, from offering wisdom without criticism, to encouraging couples to seek outside mentorship. He also discusses when and how to have those tough conversations about readiness for marriage and the importance of church-approved steps like the right of betrothal.https://www.aggiecatholic.org/marriage

Sarah Urbut is a physician-scientist at Harvard Medical School and the Massachusetts General Research Institute. She and her colleagues published a landmark paper in Nature on patient health journeys for 3 different cohorts—the Mass General Brigham patients, the UK Biobank, and the All of Us research program—with a cumulative 683,000 individuals, 348 diseases, and up to 52 years of follow-up. Integrating electronic medical records and polygenic risk scores (N=36). An AI model was developed and validated called ALADYNOULLI, with each individual represented latent disease signatures (N=21), mathematically and biologically driven. An example of a patient's dynamic life journey (health arc) is provided in the Figure below (adapted from the paper, made with NotebookLM). The longitudinal story for each individual is key here. Using a Gaussian process, the risk continually shifts like a GPS navigation when you make a wrong turn and you are re-routed. Considerable effort was dedicated to addressing selection bias with inverse probability weighting.Here are 20 temporal pattern signatures for the UK Biobank cohort, which help to provide the biologic mechanism of a person's disease, as shown for multiple conditions like heart attack, breast cancer, and depression. That is, the same disease phenotype can link to different genomic pathway underpinnings. An example for breast cancer could be related to signature 8 or signature 7; the latter tied to inflammation and metabolic abnormalities. This biological pattern could also be used to detect likely medication failure (such as SSRI treatment for depression) and predict rare diseases.In fact, the model was used to discover genomic signatures for different diseases, as shown below.This model predicted 1 and 10-year risk of diseases at the individual level and far surpassed routinely used clinical prediction calculators such as the pooled cohort equation (PCE) for coronary artery disease (0.89 vs 0.68, respectively, 1-year risk ) and the GAIL model for breast cancer (0.783 vs 0.54, respectively). ALADYNOULLI also surpassed accuracy for precision when compared with the recent Delphi-2M model that I wrote about hereThe ALADYNOULLI paper is packed with information and equations and is not easy to get through without a sophisticated math background. That's why the summary infographic below (made by Notebook LM) may be helpful to grasp its main findings Prediction of Your Health Trajectory in Context The new model substantively adds to many other recent reports that include Delphi 2M, APOLLO, and AURORA that predict future health events up to 20 years out. Each of these models were different with respect to inputs, how patient data were represented (tokens, embeddings, or latent states), and prediction outputs as briefly summarized in the Table I made below. Notably, the inputs are complementary and likely additive, such that the deeper and longer (longitudinally) the data re for each individual, the better predictive accuracy will be possible. Adding to these models are many specific disease prediction (e.g. cancer, asthma, diabetes, neurodegenerative diseases) and sources of data (such as sleep lab, wearables, or high-throughput proteomics).We are now seeing intense efforts at medical forecasting which will continue to evolve and something that was not previously possible in patient care. What I mean is that we could provide a rough sense of a patient's risk for, let's say Alzhiemer's disease, but could not temporally place when it might occur. Age 65 or 95? It makes a huge difference. And so does the ability to apply counterfactuals, what-if scenarios for the individuals to reduce the risk, markedly defer a condition's appearance, or even fully prevent it. That's why ALADYNOULLI adds yet another dimension, different methodology, multiple patient cohorts, and novel findings that further add to a new prediction and prevention dimension of medical practice. It couldn't have been done with multimodal AI.Note to readers: I wrote this post entirely. There was no AI used except to generate 3 Figures by Notebook LM (Figure 1,3 and 4) as noted. Figure 2 above is from the Supplemental information of the paper. I have no COI related to this post.******************************A big thanks to Ground Truths subscribers from every US state and 212 countries.

Leyla Muedin, a registered dietitian nutritionist in New York City, discusses the growing shift from symptom-only “sick care” to a clinically grounded holistic approach to health and recovery. She argues that self-guided wellness routines can leave gaps when underlying medical issues, mental health conditions, substance use disorders, or trauma remain unaddressed, and emphasizes integrating evidence-based clinical evaluation (including labs and deficiency testing) with lifestyle practices. She explains how treating symptoms in isolation misses connections (e.g., stress, sleep, grief) and defines true holistic care as addressing physical, mental, emotional, relational, environmental, and purpose-related factors without rejecting medical treatment. Key components include consistent movement, individualized nutrition built on basics, nervous system regulation (sleep, nature, breathing, meditation/prayer), meaningful social connection, and a sense of purpose as clinically relevant to resilience.

In this episode, we are exploring innovative research methodologies in genetics, including narrative and visual methods, conversation analysis and body mapping. Our guests highlight using these methods to drive inclusive and diverse research as well as providing a more nuanced understanding of the lived experiences of families.    Segment 1: Defining joy after a genetic diagnosis: A narrative inquiry   Guest Bio: UNC Greensboro Genetic Counseling Program graduate Jordan Miller earned a masters degree in genetic counseling in 2025 and currently works as a prenatal and cancer genetic counselor at Prisma Health in Columbia, South Carolina. In addition to clinical practice, Jordan serves as part of the faculty for the University of South Carolina Genetic Counseling program, where she is passionate about supporting and mentoring future genetic counselors.   Following a personal experience of finding joy after a devastating family diagnosis, Jordan developed a deep passion for exploring how joy, hope, and humanity can remain central to patient care. Her work and advocacy focus on fostering meaningful conversations about compassionate care and the ways healthcare professionals can help patients and families find moments of connection and resilience during difficult experiences.   In this segment we discuss: - The use of qualitative narrative inquiry and in-person observations, rather than standard surveys, to capture the visceral, underreported experience of joy following a family genetic diagnosis. - The "FERN" grounded framework (Focusing on the present, Embracing life, Redefining joy, and Normalizing the journey) and how its core themes emerged from family narratives. - How healthcare providers and communities can foster joy and humanize care by interacting with pediatric patients as individuals rather than focusing solely on their diagnosis. - Balancing grief and joy in healthcare conversations without pushing toxic positivity, highlighting how small daily moments of joy help families hold onto hope.   Segment 2: Expanding the methodological repertoire: Integrating multimodal approaches in genetic counseling research   Guest Bios: Ms Malebo Malope is a clinical genetic counsellor and currently employed at Stellenbosch University as a lecturer. She coordinates the teaching activities for the Clinical Genetics and Genetic Counselling Unit and leads short courses within the unit. Additionally, Malebo provides clinical genetic counselling at Tygerberg Hospital and participates in clinical training.  Ms Malope has a special interest in decision-making on termination of pregnancy for foetal abnormalities, accessible genetic counselling services and diversity and inclusion within the field of genetics and genomics.   Dr Megan Scott is a South African clinical genetic counsellor and health communication researcher based in Johannesburg. She holds a PhD in Health Communication and works in independent clinical practice, supporting individuals and families across a wide range of genetic indications, including prenatal, paediatric, oncology, ophthalmology and psychiatric genetics. She is actively involved in the South African medical genetics community, including student supervision and training and has previously served on the Genetic Counsellors South Africa (GCSA) committee. Dr Scott is also a Research Associate at the Health Communication Research Unit (HCRU) at the University of the Witwatersrand. Her research focuses on improving healthcare practice across interdisciplinary fields, qualitative research methods, risk and uncertainty discussions, family communication and patient-centred care. She has presented at local and international conferences, published in the fields of genetic counselling and health communication and regularly reviews for academic journals. She also serves as a supervisor, reviewer and examiner for postgraduate students in genetic counselling, public health, psychology and clinical medicine.   Dr Lorraine Cowley is a clinical academic with a background in oncology nursing and currently serves as Principal Genetic Counsellor at the Northern Genetics Service, Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. She is also an Honorary Senior Lecturer at Newcastle University. With over 25 years of experience in patient perspectives research, Lorraine has led, co-led, supervised and contributed to numerous national and international studies, with a particular focus on improving patient-centred approaches in genetic and rare disease services. She is currently funded by the Medical Research Council (MRC) and the National Institute for Health and Social Care Research (NIHR) through a Clinical Academic Research Partnership (CARP) Fellowship. Her current work involves collaboration across Latin America and the UK to evaluate the delivery and impact of whole exome sequencing for individuals with rare muscle disorders, aiming to improve equitable access to genomic diagnostics in rare disease care.   In this segment we discuss: - How visual methods like photographic elicitation and social mapping challenge traditional biological pedigrees, revealing diverse family dynamics, gendered support roles, and moral tensions around genetic testing. - The therapeutic and harm-reduction benefits of body mapping in complex pregnancy cases, allowing patients to express embodied emotional experiences beyond verbal language. - Applying conversation analysis to real-time clinical consultations to observe non-verbal cues and explore the complex tension between counselor neutrality and institutional expectations. - The potential of multimodal methodologies to capture culturally specific kinship structures globally and their application as reflective tools in genetic counseling supervision and training.   Would you like to nominate a JoGC article to be featured in the show?

What would you do if something that connected you to someone you loved disappeared forever? Marriage and family therapist Elizabeth Gruebel shares the heartbreaking story of returning home to discover she'd been robbed and that the one item she treasured above everything else, her late father's Bronze Star, was gone forever. At first, the loss felt unbearable. But over time, Elizabeth discovered something unexpected: the values, courage, and integrity she associated with her father had never lived in the medal—they had become part of her.

The professional world usually prioritizes urgency, but the most important moments of our lives rarely happen at the desk. In his new book Big Time Off, Sabbatical Project founder DJ DiDonna offers up a simple but radical idea: sabbaticals help us avoid sleepwalking through life by giving us time to be present in moments of celebration, difficulty, and transition. Integrating original research and compelling stories of sabbatical-takers from all walks of life—from teachers and nonprofit leaders to startup founders and Fortune 500 employees—DiDonna explores why extended time away from work has such a profound effect on people's identity, relationships, creativity, and direction. DiDonna covers when to take a sabbatical—and how to avoid waiting for a crisis to take off; why sabbaticals—unlike vacations—help you forge a new career path, feel human again, and live a more authentic life; how to navigate your sabbatical using archetypes—the explorer, the seeker, and the achiever—and avoid common pitfalls; and best practices for individuals—no matter the circumstances—and organizations of all sizes to make extended leave possible and sustainable. Whether you dream of making a big change, exploring the world, or simply carving out space to heal, think, and recalibrate, join us to hear DiDonna discuss his guide to creating a richer, more intentional life. About the Speakers DJ DiDonna is a senior lecturer at Harvard Business School, where he teaches entrepreneurship. In 2019, he founded The Sabbatical Project to define, explore, and research sabbaticals. DiDonna has advised over a dozen organizations on the creation of sabbatical policies, including Zappos, Google, and DaVita, and from nonprofits to Fortune 500 companies, both in the United States and around the world. He has appeared on ABC, NPR, CNBC and attended Harvard Business School, later cofounding an international credit-scoring company, EFL Global (the Entrepreneurial Finance Lab), based in Lima, Peru. Aarti Shahani took a sabbatical from college to lead a campaign against her father's deportation. After almost a decade, her advocacy was successful. Her family remained together in the United States. She went on to become a prominent voice for the country as an award-winning NPR correspondent, where millions of listeners have turned to her to explain the significant stories of our time. Her bestselling memoir Here We Are details the history of I.C.E. through her family's experience. She regularly hosts conversations with leaders in business, politics and arts on her podcast “Art of Power” as well as shows like NPR's "Fresh Air" and KQED's "Forum."

Therefore, developing relational literacy—the understanding of and ability to practice healthy ways of relating—is essential for personal, social, and ecological transformation.” —Melanie Joy, Ph.D. Psychologist, Author, Theorist, Educator When WeMentor… your life becomes more meaningful!!! Redefine how you lead while redesigning your business. Dual Innovation Leadership WORKS.  Visionary Mentor Nancy Meyer, MA Business and Life Mentor | Podcaster | Author | Mindfulness Yogi and Meditation Integrator I integrate mindfulness yoga into everything because breathing, meditation, and movement are essential as you change your life and how you lead.  I have a compassionate, collaborative approach that reinforces resilience and maintains accountable conversations supporting your evolution. Bottom Line: My top priority is your transformation and creating a meaningful life through business ownership. You will learn new skills, practice, evolve, innovate, expand marketing efforts, and prosper financially. We start with your desire to develop as a leader. To give you more background, I founded WeMentor, inc. in 1992 to promote Dual Innovation Leadership, the ability to evolve how you lead as you redesign your business model. To grow our businesses, we must lead differently when our perspective shifts. The thousands of brave leaders I have mentored succeeded by taking charge of how they evolved and learned how to respond to the unpredictable nature of business ownership by innovating on purpose (asserting self-leadership).  When your perspective shifts, your intuition nudges you into a growth process so you can learn how to lead differently. As you practice new ways of leading, you notice ways to change your business. It is like remodeling.  We start with a plan when we embark on a remodeling project. When we implement the plan, obstacles challenge us to adjust our mindset, gather further information, and brainstorm other options. Adapting the plan to fit our new reality is part of every remodeling project. Budgets always need adjusting, and we need to update our approach to complete the innovation. What I love about renovating our businesses is that new ideas emerge, and the project usually has an even better result. We feel changed through the process and have learned many details about remodeling that we can apply in our next project.

You can also binge and listen to prior podcast conversations. Another thing to know about Dual Innovation Leadership is that you can rebound and recover from trauma, distractions, destructive habits, thoughtlessness, confusion, pointlessness, helplessness, overwork, stress, and suffering as you transform how you lead. Integrating our experiences is exhilarating as we evolve how we lead and redesign our lifework. Take the opportunity to change.

The Experiential Technology Paradigm: Scaling AI Event Activations and Corporate Asset Design with Sam EitzenIn a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur Podcast, host Josh Elledge sat down with Sam Eitzen, the CEO and Co-Founder of Snapbar, to examine how physical event engagement models have systematically evolved into high-yield, software-driven brand engines. Sam, a visionary tech founder and experiential marketing strategist, details his company's remarkable multi-year pivot—transitioning from a traditional regional photo booth operator into an international corporate tech provider that leverages artificial intelligence to scale enterprise headshots and immersive brand activations. This conversation delivers an essential strategic playbook for mid-market founders, corporate event marketers, and agency executives who want to eliminate the heavy operational overhead of live productions, capture verified B2B lead data, and deploy flexible AI software across global virtual, hybrid, and in-person experiences.The Architecture of Engagement: Harnessing AI Visual Processing and Modular Software for Enterprise ScaleThe primary constraint holding back traditional event marketing from delivering predictable, trackable return on investment is a reliance on localized, labor-intensive setups that fail to extend brand reach past the physical booth floor. Sam Eitzen explains that when companies restrict their activations to standard physical staging, they accrue high administrative costs while missing valuable opportunities to collect compliant lead data. Real-world scalability is achieved when an enterprise replaces static hardware setups with custom, mobile-first visual software that allows attendees to generate and share branded digital media using personal smartphones, tablets, or QR-code portals. By converting physical event interactions into immediate, shareable digital assets, brands transform single attendees into active distribution channels that naturally amplify corporate messaging across organic social networks.Integrating artificial intelligence into visual event software completely alters the economics of corporate photography and enterprise asset management, particularly for distributed workforce operations. Traditional approaches to securing standardized employee headshots require organizing expensive on-site photography shoots across dozens of regional offices, creating severe logistical friction and inconsistent visual outputs. Utilizing advanced AI processing models allows remote personnel to submit casual smartphone photos from anywhere in the world; the software then automatically upscales the image, applies professional retouching, and standardizes the background to deliver cohesive corporate assets at a fraction of the cost. This same algorithmic capability fuels large-scale marketing campaigns, allowing fans at major international sports or trade events to convert their likenesses into custom, branded avatars that drive high engagement and organic lead generation.Furthermore, sustaining long-term enterprise growth requires leadership to embrace an experimental, mixology-inspired mindset that treats business challenges as fluid processes requiring rapid iteration and deep preparation. Navigating major industry disruptions demands that executive teams pivot boldly into adjacent software opportunities, leveraging core competencies in visual processing and user experience to engineer new revenue streams. By combining modular event technology with consultative discovery workflows, service providers can tailor custom digital platforms to fit the exact technical and compliance goals of enterprise clients and agency partners. When scalable AI visual tools, agile software execution, and strategic lead-capture mechanisms are synthesized under a single operational architecture, an organization eliminates event-planning bottlenecks, maximizes human capital output, and predictably expands its enterprise valuation.About Sam EitzenSam Eitzen is the CEO and Co-Founder of Snapbar, a prominent technology entrepreneur, and a leading expert in AI-driven experiential marketing frameworks. Drawing from years of hands-on experience guiding his company through major industry shifts, Sam specializes in building software platforms that transform how mid-market and enterprise organizations engage audiences. He is a passionate advocate for agile product experimentation, creative corporate problem-solving, and leveraging cutting-edge visual technology to solve complex B2B brand activation challenges.About SnapbarSnapbar is an elite experiential marketing technology company and software provider engineered to deliver high-impact photo, video, and AI-driven engagement solutions for global brands. The company specializes in providing automated professional AI headshot platforms, custom web-based event activations, branded avatar generators, and hybrid event technology playbooks. Through flexible, remote-first software design and tailored consultative services, Snapbar enables corporate event planners, marketing agencies, and enterprise HR teams to remove operational scaling friction and maximize brand engagement.Links Mentioned in This EpisodeSnapbar Official Website: snapbar.comSam Eitzen on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/sam-eitzenKey Episode HighlightsThe AI Headshot Scalability Model: How automated image upscaling and background standardization eliminate the logistical overhead of corporate photography for distributed teams.The Mixology Framework for Innovation: Applying structured experimentation, careful preparation, and foundational principles to rapidly pivot business models during market shifts.Mobile-First Experiential Activations: Utilizing QR-code portals and web-based camera platforms to turn physical event attendees into active brand ambassadors.Compliant Lead Capture Integrations: Seamlessly embedding data collection touchpoints inside interactive photo and video experiences to drive post-event sales funnels.The Hybrid Flexibility Advantage: Engineering modular software architectures that deliver equal engagement across live trade show floors and virtual attendee environments.ConclusionThe conversation with Sam Eitzen reinforces that modern experiential marketing is fundamentally a discipline of agile software innovation, automated visual scaling, and strategic audience engagement. By standardizing internal corporate tech governance, embracing AI-driven visual assets, and ruthlessly protecting automated lead-capture pipelines, business leaders can transform a static event presence into a highly structured, self-sustaining corporate growth engine.More from The Thoughtful Entrepreneur

What if your strongest, most adventurous years are still ahead of you — not behind you? In this episode of The Art of Living Well Podcast®, Marnie and Stephanie sit down with Jen Segger, world-class endurance athlete, high-performance coach, and co-founder of the Rebuild Retreat, to explore what it really looks like to keep dreaming bigger in midlife. From her roots in adventure racing to coaching women through the physiology of perimenopause and beyond, Jen brings a grounded, practical perspective on what separates the women who achieve meaningful goals from those who stay stuck. Jen's path started with a pivot away from competitive field hockey and a move to Whistler in her early twenties, where she began building a life around adventure racing — a sport that takes teams through remote terrain for up to ten days nonstop. Over two decades, she has raced across the world, guided expeditions in Colombia, co-created immersive retreats on Vancouver Island, and built a coaching practice around getting people to the finish line of whatever matters most to them.
