We will discuss what it takes to future-proof Valero's risk program, and we will discuss Energy Awareness Month in October. [3:08] You may know Roy from his presence in the RIMS Houston Chapter. He is a former president of that chapter, and you probably saw him at the RIMS Texas Regional in 2026. [3:23] Announcement: The speaker's views are his own, and not necessarily the views of Valero. [3:29] I'm looking forward to hearing how he manages risk for Valero, so let's get to it! [3:34] Interview! Roy Hock, welcome to RIMScast! [3:48] Roy started working for an insurance company right out of school. Most of his career has been in Houston. For the last six years, he has been in San Antonio at Valero. [4:03] Roy shares his early career path: underwriting, reinsurance, broker. Then he got his ARM. One of his friends was looking for a risk manager for a startup in Houston. Roy took the opportunity. He loved it until it was sold. [4:55] Roy moved on to another job. After a couple of years, Valero approached him, looking for a risk manager with experience in the oil and gas industry, for a job in San Antonio. Roy said yes. It's a wonderful city. He was very excited to be given the opportunity. [5:21] Roy says, six years later, he's Director of Risk Finance & Casualty Insurance, and loving every minute of it. [5:52] Roy says his work days are varied. Every day is an exciting new challenge. Roy oversees captive, casualty insurance, directors and officers insurance, and all other types of insurance. He works in a large team and is often the backup when people are out. He's keeping up his skills. [6:27] Roy also oversees the Risk Information Management System. Part of his team focuses on that, and he helps support them. [6:38] Roy says it's a big organization of 10,000 people, and there's always something happening. You never know what you're going to get from day to day. [6:48] Justin says he and Roy met right after RISKWORLD for a session with Origami Risk, "Future-Proofing Your Risk Program". Justin wanted to extend the dialog with Roy with Energy Awareness Month coming up in October. [7:06] Justin asks how important Energy Awareness Month is at Valero. Roy says every minute of every day is about energy awareness. [7:24] Valero is a refiner. They buy crude and refine it into jet fuel, diesel, and unleaded gas. They also produce ethanol and renewable diesel. They have their hands in a lot of things, all geared to moving people around the world. [7:52] Valero is always looking at how to create efficiencies and keep costs down. Energy is a big piece of that. They are in Texas, where wind and solar are big. Valero is a big energy consumer. [8:10] They try to keep the energy costs down and build efficiencies within the operation, not only to keep costs down but also to be more self-sustaining so they're taking less off the grid. [8:47] Roy says a risk manager not only has to understand the insurance side and the claims side, and how they interrelate, but you have to understand them in the context of your business. [8:58] You need to know how you make money, where the risks are, the trends you see, and help the organization identify those trends and find ways to address them when possible, via a captive or an outside carrier or internally with programs to mitigate risks and keep losses down. [9:23] Roy says if you don't understand the business, you can't do that very effectively. You need to understand the business. You don't need to know all the details of how a business works, but you need to know a very strong baseline and know who does know the answers. [9:38] Roy says creating that internal network is just as important as having the external network you get in the insurance world. You need to sit in between those two. [9:50] Roy has been at Valero for six years and two months. He came from an oil and gas background, on the insurance side of the business. He knew how the flow worked and what all the pieces did. Even after six years at Valero, Roy is still learning something every day. [10:22] Roy says it took a good year or two to feel comfortable "speaking" the business. He got there by listening to executives talk to carriers, by listening to earnings calls, and by listening to businesses asking Valero for things. Roy loves being a learner. [10:51] That's how Roy has gotten a baseline comfort with the business, and he knows who to ask when there are specific questions. [11:05] Roy has four people on his team, acting as internal support on top of other things they do for the company. The broad risk management group is around 20 people, including an internal TPA and risk engineers with niche knowledge in fire, water, and protection. [12:04] Roy says most companies don't do that. It's just how Valero developed over the years. [12:21] Justin asks what future-proofing a risk program means to Roy. Roy says it's staying on the pulse of what's going on in the business and in the insurance commercial markets, and maintaining a strong network across the board. Use that information. Does this apply to Valero? [12:58] Roy says you have to look at the workforce. Some people may retire. What does that mean? What will we look like in five years? Roy says we do a five-year team outlook for the knowledge transfer. What's on the horizon?  [13:27] Twenty years ago, cyber was a thing, but it wasn't a real thing. Now, it's a bigger thing. It's something we have to look at. It's been insane. Roy asks, What's this AI going to do to us? [13:47] Roy says a lot of that is coming from internal questions and resources. People from different departments bring questions. Roy says it's going to RIMS conferences and learning what's going on in the world, in the RIMS space, and in the technology space. [14:07] Roy says bringing all that together is what helps future-proof us. [14:39] Roy says he thinks all risk managers inherently do that. We're always trying to stay ahead of the ball. They want to stay at the forefront of what's going on in the world, so they can address it before it becomes a problem. That's the key. You're trying to address it. [14:59] If it is a business decision, bring to bear your business knowledge in discussions: If we do this, this is what could happen, and this is how we can mitigate it. Do you want to take the cost of that mitigation? Roy says that having those discussions helps a lot, as well. [15:21] A Quick Break! Many fantastic RIMS events are coming up in 2026.

[16:54] Let's Return to Our Interview with Roy Hock of Valero! [17:01] Justin asks if electric vehicles (EVs) are a risk for Valero. Roy answers that Valero is a supply-and-demand organization. Futurists have predicted we would hit peak oil and we would not need oil. That has not come to pass. [17:40] Valero's philosophy is to do what is right, what makes profit for shareholders, and what's good for the world as they see it. So far, that's been doing very well for them. Valero is proud of what they've accomplished. [18:03] Roy says Valero has done things internally that people don't see to bring down its carbon footprint. Some regulatory switches have caused Valero to put those numbers forward. Roy says Valero is proud of those numbers and that their metrics are industry-leading. [19:06] Roy says Valero has a good story to tell and now they are telling it. It has been interesting. Some things they have been doing; some things have been in their plans for 20 years, as part of trying to run a good business. They've been doing all the right things, all along. [19:43] Roy says he thinks Valero's culture of humility is helping to future-proof the business. Interns and new hires seem to love Valero. Numbers are good. Retention numbers are really good. If young employees are unhappy with a company's culture, they look for something else. [20:31] Roy says, not only do we compensate them well, but also the culture keeps them engaged and wanting to work for us. Someone retired from Roy's team after 35-plus years. Roy says that is very common there. People like to work at Valero. It's a good spot. [20:53] Justin asks how geopolitical risks affect Roy's risk work at Valero. Roy says Valero has been forced to step up and participate in new ways recently. Around the world, regulations have changed. It's hard to plan a business around regulations that are here today and gone tomorrow. [21:47] Roy says they have to be at the table to try to mitigate that risk. Roy says "100%" there is more volatility on the regulatory side than when Valero started. The regulatory environment across the world swings back and forth. Valero is just trying to run a good business. [22:26] Roy says one side of the aisle doesn't like it, and the other side of the aisle doesn't like it for a completely different reason. [22:35] Valero is having to come sit at the table more often than ever to try to make sure their voice is heard and that what they're trying to do is coming across, to try to mitigate that risk as much as possible. It's not an insurance risk but a legal-type risk that Valero has to address. [23:08] Roy says that Risk has the attention of the C-Suite. In Roy's experience, even at previous companies, insurance is one of the big "spends" of a company. It's the Risk Management Group's role to mitigate risks, process claims, and make sure they stay under control. [23:43] Roy says that through Legal, or Treasury, or directly to the CFO, there's usually a line of sight to the C-Suite and the Board. Roy says sometimes you're placing insurance for the Board. Roy helps his VP get ready for the annual update to the Board and the big renewal cycles. [24:15] Roy says, in the renewal cycle, if Risk sees something on the horizon, it's easy for them, because of the networks they've built, to go to the C-Suite and communicate those risks or options to them. It's periodic. It happens all the time. [24:43] One more Quick Break! RIMS, The Foundation for Risk ManagementTM, is dedicated to shaping the future of the profession. By making a contribution, you are strengthening the global risk management community and investing in the future of the industry. [25:02] The Foundation also supports the Spencer Educational Foundation but has a different mission. The Foundation focuses on providing opportunities for those professionals who have already decided to enter risk management and are just getting started. [25:16] You can learn more about the Foundation by visiting www.RIMS.org/FRM.  While you're there, be sure to check out information about the Susan Meltzer Scholarship Fund, which was established to honor Ms. Meltzer, who was RIMS President in 1999 and 2000. [25:35] Susan Meltzer was a cherished RIMS President and contributed so much to RIMS and the greater risk community. Learn more at RIMS.org/FRM. [25:44] Let's Return to Our Interview with Roy Hock of Valero! [25:50] Justin and Roy talk about Roy's membership in the South Texas RIMS Chapter. Roy is the former President of the RIMS Houston Chapter. He says the South Texas RIMS Chapter is fantastic. [26:18] Roy says there are a lot of businesses coming into Texas, which means a lot of risk functions are moving in. The different chapters are growing. Everybody is doing a good job keeping their members engaged. They keep growing and finding new avenues of engagement. [26:40] Roy says 32 years ago the South Texas RIMS Chapter led the way and started a shooting event in the Spring. Roy was a traditional golfer in Houston. Roy says the shooting event is awesome. They still do a golf event as well. Valero is a big sponsor of these types of events. [27:03] Roy says his boss, Jeremy Bergeron, is a former President of the local chapter. Jeremy reports to the Board annually. Everybody on the team is hands-on, periodically touching base with the different groups. [27:34] Roy says Valero has a long history with and a love of RIMS. Often, the South Texas RIMS Chapter gets invites to play golf with different vendors, and Valero has been very good about supporting that. [27:52] Instead of chapter members going, they'll bring in students from St. Mary's University to attend these events as the future of the risk management industry. It's important to have them get engaged in these types of events, so the chapter helps support them and brings them in. [28:12] Roy sits on the St. Mary's Risk Advisory Board. It's been a pleasure. He loves it, and he says these kids are great. He says we have great future people coming into the industry. [28:30] Roy describes managing a captive for Valero. He has always been interested in how insurance companies function and work. When Valero approached him, it was for risk management and running a captive insurance company. He said, Sign me up! [28:58] Roy says it's great. Day to day, they're doing everything an insurance company does. They talk to regulators, they have managers, they have investments, and all the different things that accompany an insurance company. [29:09] Roy says Valero's captive is a company within a company, and an insurance company within a non-insurance-company environment. They insure Valero. Roy has a CPA on staff who is very helpful. She came from Valero's Accounting side, so she knows their needs. [29:39] Roy says that's one of the unique things about a captive. You need to be able to integrate with your parent company to consolidate everything correctly. The CPA is the bridge that does that for the captive. She has been very helpful to Roy and has helped him learn about it. [29:55] Roy says he didn't have a strong finance background. He knew basic accounting, but running a company is a little bit different. You need to know a little bit more. The CPA has helped Roy get educated on that. Accounting rules evolve, and regulations change all the time. [30:21] Roy says he likes policies and insurance. Reading a policy may not be for everybody, but it is for Roy, so it has been great. He gets to generate policies, which is even more fun. He gets to interact with a lot of fun and exciting people at Valero and outside. [31:08] Roy says they've redomiciled their captive to Texas. It's a growing captive, so there are a lot of moving parts, like a startup. He has to wear many hats. Valero allows Roy the opportunity to engage in helping with the process of pushing legislation. He likes the opportunity. [32:00] Roy would advise young risk professionals coming out of schools today, already understanding policies and risk registers, to continue their education. Designations are important, including the RIMS-CRMP. Roy got the ARM before the RIMS-CRMP was available. [33:10] Roy says things are changing constantly. When Roy took the ARM, there was no cyber piece. There is a piece on cyber now. It's a dynamic and ever-changing industry. Always keep your education up. Roy also advises that you need to build your network. [33:38] Roy says in insurance and risk management, and in your organization, you need to build your network so you can do your job and learn about what other people are doing in your organization and outside your organization. [33:53] Going to conferences helps in ways you don't even understand. As an industry, risk stands out as being more personable. You have data, systems, and risks, but you layer a personal connection on top of all of it. [34:23] Roy says a lot of students come out of school without a network. Roy tells his team to introduce these students to as many people as you can. Make sure that they get to all the conferences that they can. In the industry, we have a responsibility to help them with that. [34:58] As new risk professionals join the workforce, Roy says they should know that the traditional industries are not going anywhere. They are still very valuable and have a lot of career "legs" in them. You can make a great career working at an energy or energy-related company. [35:14] Roy says new risk professionals should keep an open mind to it and see what they like. As many pieces as there are on the insurance side, there are as many on the energy side. There are all types of energy and all types of places to play. [35:35] Roy says to move around, learn about these different pieces, and see what speaks to you. If you don't like what you're doing, you're not going to do as good a job. If you like what you're doing, you're always going to push yourself to do the best job.

“We never use the word AI anywhere. You're saying we're an AI company, not me.”Mo Akbari-Hochberg built HoloBuilder and sold it to FARO. Now he is back with BuildCrew, a preconstruction platform backed by Khosla Ventures that uses digital workers to help contractors with estimating, trade scoping, bid levelling and preconstruction RFIs.In this episode, Mo explains why he believes 99% of construction AI teams do not properly understand the technology they are building with, why access to the same AI models does not produce the same results and what contractors should look for when buying AI software.We also discuss how BuildCrew can produce a rough order of magnitude estimate in 4 to 5 hours, compare 10 electrical bids in around 20 minutes and identify gaps across construction drawings and project documents.

One of the biggest challenges that any organization will face throughout its lifetime is conscious evolution. It is imperative to remain purposeful and intentional toward the adoption of new concepts into a system that may have worked yesterday, but – in the words of Bob Dylan, “The times, they are a-changin”. Sure, Nordstrom has won the right to be here for 125 years, but it's not because we've run the same playbook over and over again. If we want to see this thing grow into the foreseeable future, we need to stay curious, and actively listen to fresh ideas from a new generation of eager and ambitious young minds, hungry to make a meaningful impact on our industry. One of the best ways that we've found to do so is by offering these young people – in particular, current college students and recent graduates – an exceptionally appealing work environment through our 10-week corporate internship program here in Seattle. Long-time Nordy Pod listeners will remember that we've featured the internship program before – but that was over a hundred episodes and almost four years ago. So in the spirit of staying current, we've brought in a fresh new crop of interns from this year's program – five of our thirty three summer interns of 2026 – to share their experience, and what they've learned as the summer comes to a close. In this episode you'll hear from rising senior at Texas A&M University, Maci Nash, rising senior at the University of Texas in Austin, Lucia Soldi, rising senior at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York, Layla Stanfill, rising senior at the University of Washington in Seattle, Madhumitha Gandhi, and graduate of the University of Washington, and experienced Nordstrom shoe-seller, Tony Ha There's no doubt that each of these talented individuals has a bright future ahead of them, and we're extremely proud to have played even a small part in developing those stories. We can confidently say that they've each made a lasting impression on our business, and we're extremely grateful for their unique perspectives and kind words about their time in the Nordstrom internship program. Thanks for tuning in to episode 117. We hope you enjoy it! Did you know that YOU can be on The Nordy Pod? This show isn't just a one-way conversation. We want to hear about what Nordstrom looks like through your eyes. Share your Nordstrom experience, good or bad, by giving us a call and leaving a voicemail at: 206.594.0526, or send an email to nordypodcast@nordstrom.com to be a part of the conversation!

Every summer, a group of students arrives at Key Financial expecting spreadsheets. They leave with something else entirely. In this episode, Paige Hill sits down with the 2026 summer interns for an honest conversation about what surprised them, what no classroom taught them, and the moment one of them realized that clients are not their money.

Vinay Gidwaney is Chief Product Officer and Mike Sullivan is Co-Founder and CEO of OneDigital, a 6,000-person, PE-backed benefits, HR, and wealth consultancy serving roughly 100,000 employers. Their contrarian bet: AI transformation has almost nothing to do with technology and everything to do with treating AI as talent. Instead of automating tasks, OneDigital built an internal hiring pipeline for AI, complete with job descriptions, an intern-to-apprentice-to-full-time promotion path, and performance improvement plans, and used it to avoid the layoffs most "AI transformation" playbooks assume are inevitable. Liam sits down with both of them to unpack the night Mike built a "disruption calculator" that showed OneDigital was on track to cut 1,800 of its 6,000 jobs, and how that all-nighter became the catalyst for a different strategy. They get into Ben, the AI coworker now handling daily conversations with 1,600 benefit consultants, why Vinay cites a claim from Lemonade's CEO that AI agents scored higher on customer empathy than human call center staff, the risk of companies "renting back" their own intelligence after gutting their workforce, and the thinking behind their upcoming book, Workforce Intelligence, releasing August 25th. Key Topics Covered Why treating AI adoption like rolling out a new CRM guarantees failure The failed early bet on automating RFPs, and why augmenting human thinking won instead The stat that proves AI adoption is personal: a manager's own AI use doubles their team's usage Building an AI "disruption calculator" overnight, and the 1,800-job number it produced OneDigital's three-part AI framework: coworkers, builders, and agents How OneDigital literally hires its AI: job descriptions, interns, apprenticeships, and performance improvement plans Meet Ben, the AI coworker fielding daily conversations with 1,600 benefits consultants Why they stay LLM-agnostic and separate the intelligence layer from the model and the harness The real risk behind AI cost metering: losing access to the intelligence your company now depends on A claim from Lemonade's CEO that AI agents beat humans on customer empathy Irreducible vs. reducible skills: how to decide what AI should do and what humans should keep The case for "faces, not headcount" and OneDigital's internal "humanity test" What's actually inside their upcoming book, Workforce Intelligence Episode Timestamps 00:00 Introduction 00:41 The thesis: AI transformation is about talent and leadership, not technology 02:44 Why treating AI adoption like a CRM rollout fails 04:29 Pitching VCs a "Workday for AI agents," and why it flopped 07:19 Why automating tasks failed, and augmenting human thinking won 11:20 The stat that changed everything: manager AI usage doubles team usage 15:04 Mike's personal epiphany and the "Claude" nickname from his family 18:10 Building an overnight "disruption calculator" with Claude and Replit 19:56 The result: a model showing 1,800 of 6,000 jobs at risk if nothing changes 21:11 Coworkers, builders, and agents: OneDigital's three-part AI framework 24:02 The AI hiring pipeline: job descriptions, interns, and apprenticeships 27:39 Meet Ben: the AI coworker now used by 1,600 benefits consultants daily 31:10 What's actually deployed: an LLM-agnostic stack with a separate intelligence layer 35:38 The metering and access risk: the Fable/White House security scare 39:56 Measuring "workforce intelligence": blending human and AI capability 50:07 Irreducible vs. reducible skills, and the Lemonade insurance AI-empathy example 53:38 The reskilling problem, and why human judgment stays irreplaceable 56:30 "Faces vs. headcount" and the company's internal "humanity test" 1:07:08 The origin of their book, Workforce Intelligence (out August 25th) 1:11:10 The risk of "renting back" your own intelligence after cutting your best people Learn more about OneDigital and the book Workforce Intelligence: https://www.onedigital.com/ Connect with Mike on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mikesullivanatdigital/ Connect with Vinay on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gidwaney/ Partner Links Upgrade your AI toolkit: https://www.theaireport.ai/ai-executive-pass Subscribe to our free newsletter: https://newsletter.theaireport.ai/subscribe Join the community: https://community.theaireport.ai/checkout/the-ai-report-welcome-gift?coupon_code=WRTH Learn more about your ad choices.

August 5, 2026: I look at the Wall Street Journal story on parents getting involved in their adult children's careers, from job fairs to calls with hiring managers. Then I get into a new KPMG survey showing interns now rank career growth above salary and work-life balance, with 93% aspiring to reach senior leadership. Finally, I unpack LinkedIn's 2026 Top Colleges list and why families should think less about prestige and more about outcomes, cost, skills, and career ROI.

Fluent Fiction - Catalan: Barcelona Interns: A Summer of Growth and Unexpected Alliances Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/ca/episode/2026-07-19-07-38-19-ca Story Transcript:Ca: Durant un estiu calorós a la ciutat de Barcelona, Júlia es va endinsar en el món laboral com a becària en una oficina moderna situada al cor del districte financer.En: During a hot summer in the city of Barcelona, Júlia ventured into the working world as an intern in a modern office located in the heart of the financial district.Ca: Era un espai ampli amb grans finestres que deixaven entrar molta llum natural, un lloc on les persones es movien amb pressa entre reunions i taules compartides.En: It was a spacious area with large windows that let in plenty of natural light, a place where people moved quickly between meetings and shared desks.Ca: Júlia, estudiant universitària diligent, tenia un objectiu clar: impressionar a la seva supervisora, Laia.En: Júlia, a diligent university student, had a clear goal: to impress her supervisor, Laia.Ca: Laia era coneguda per ser exigent però justa, i Júlia desitjava més que res obtenir una bona recomanació o, amb sort, una oferta de treball per després de graduar-se.En: Laia was known for being demanding but fair, and Júlia wanted nothing more than to receive a good recommendation or, with luck, a job offer after graduating.Ca: Però, des de l'inici, va sentir que les expectatives eren altes.En: However, from the start, she felt that the expectations were high.Ca: Un altre becari, Pau, semblava tenir facilitat per tot.En: Another intern, Pau, seemed to have a knack for everything.Ca: Sempre acabava les tasques amb rapidesa i confiança, mentre que Júlia sovint es trobava atrapada entre documents i terminis.En: He always finished tasks quickly and confidently, while Júlia often found herself trapped between documents and deadlines.Ca: Aquesta situació la feia dubtar de les seves pròpies capacitats.En: This situation made her doubt her own abilities.Ca: Decidida a no rendir-se, Júlia va començar a quedar-se fins tard a l'oficina.En: Determined not to give up, Júlia began staying late at the office.Ca: Va treballar en un projecte exigent, revisant cada detall amb meticulositat.En: She worked on a demanding project, meticulously reviewing every detail.Ca: Però hi havia un moment en què necessitava ajuda.En: But there came a time when she needed help.Ca: Amb un cor bategant ràpidament per l'ansietat, Júlia va decidir demanar-li consell a Pau.En: With a heart beating rapidly from anxiety, Júlia decided to ask Pau for advice.Ca: Tot i el seu recel inicial, Pau es va mostrar sorprenentment obert i va compartir algunes estratègies que l'ajudaven a organitzar-se millor.En: Despite her initial reluctance, Pau was surprisingly open and shared some strategies that helped him organize better.Ca: Amb el temps, va arribar el dia d'una presentació important davant de tot l'equip.En: In time, the day of an important presentation in front of the entire team arrived.Ca: Júlia es va preparar amb molta cura.En: Júlia prepared herself very carefully.Ca: Quan va ser el seu torn, va exposar la seva investigació i propostes amb claredat i creativitat.En: When it was her turn, she presented her research and proposals with clarity and creativity.Ca: Laia, així com altres membres de l'equip, van quedar impressionats.En: Laia, as well as other team members, were impressed.Ca: Tanmateix, en un gir inesperat, Pau va cometre errors durant la seva presentació.En: However, in an unexpected twist, Pau made mistakes during his presentation.Ca: Va ser llavors quan es va fer evident que la seva aparent confiança amagava inseguretats.En: It was then that it became clear that his apparent confidence hid insecurities.Ca: Després de la sessió, Laia va dedicar unes paraules a Júlia, lloant el seu treball dur i el seu talent.En: After the session, Laia dedicated a few words to Júlia, praising her hard work and talent.Ca: Li va prometre recomanacions per a futures oportunitats laborals.En: She promised her recommendations for future job opportunities.Ca: Pau, d'altra banda, va entendre que no sempre podia fer-ho tot sol i va acceptar un projecte menys crític, valorant la importància del treball en equip.En: Pau, on the other hand, realized that he couldn't always do everything alone and accepted a less critical project, appreciating the importance of teamwork.Ca: A mesura que l'estiu arribava al seu final, Júlia havia guanyat confiança en les seves capacitats i havia après el valor de demanar ajuda quan era necessari.En: As the summer came to a close, Júlia had gained confidence in her abilities and had learned the value of asking for help when needed.Ca: Pau va començar a reconèixer els seus temors i va adoptar un enfocament més col·laboratiu.En: Pau began to recognize his fears and adopted a more collaborative approach.Ca: Aquell estiu a l'oficina va ser un temps de creixement i aprenentatge per a tots dos.En: That summer in the office was a time of growth and learning for both of them.

This week, we're joined by our three U.S. Dairy Sales Interns, Evan Hathaway, Sara Reed, and Abby Thelen, to reflect on a summer spent learning, traveling, and working alongside dairy producers across the country. From their firsthand experiences on farms to their perspectives on modern dairy genetics, they discuss how today's producers are making genetic decisions centered on profitability, balance, and long-term success. They also share how this internship has shaped their career goals, the value of building relationships within the industry, and why they're optimistic about the future of dairy.

What does it actually look like to run a one-day sprint cycle? To have agents building product overnight? To compress months of work into days — and still ship things that matter?Kris Kaneta, Chief Product & Innovation Officer at Norstella — one of fast company's most innovative companies of 2025 — is doing it. And in this episode, he shares how with hosts Heather Samarin and Vidya Dinamani.From the premium on clarity in an AI-led pdlc, to the difference between building to learn and building to earn, to why ai is exposing — not hiding — weak product thinking, Kris gives one of the most operationally grounded views of AI-first product leadership we've heard.

"The Lord used prayer to open my heart to Ukraine." Discover how a heartfelt prayer journey led Kendra Patty to make an impactful difference as a full-time missionary. Kendra, a missionary kid who grew up in Slovenia with Josiah Venture, studied economics and international relations at Wheaton College. She moved to Ukraine after the 2022 invasion prompted a year of daily prayer, which led her to a Josiah Venture internship and then to full-time ministry. Now living in Irpin, Kendra leads the internship program in Ukraine and serves as a youth leader, carrying both grief and joy while trusting God's work amid war. She shares how being a third-culture kid shaped her identity in Christ and her heart for Europe, describes recruiting interns despite wartime barriers, and celebrates having 14 interns from five countries. Kendra highlights bonding through the Amazing Race and Intern training, and asks for prayer for an end to the war, encouragement for weary leaders, and for many young people to come to faith.

Most companies recruit interns to take work off someone's plate. Your Health does the opposite — and it's why several of its current executives, including a Chief Information Officer, first walked in the door as interns. In this episode, Jamie sits down with Heather Bower, Director of Experiential Learning, who has taken the reins of Your Health's internship, mentorship, preceptorship, and apprenticeship programs. Heather shares how a long-standing program is being rebuilt with structure, data, and intention — organized into semester cohorts, anchored by a four-day all-company orientation, and designed so every intern owns a project with genuine stakes. In this conversation, you'll hear: Why "get interns because they're cheap" is exactly the wrong spirit — and what replaces it How one MBA intern's shadowing experience redirected him toward nursing school The "spreadsheet whisperer" intern who taught regional leadership to pull data faster What surprises interns most once they're inside healthcare: the human complexity How Your Health uses feedback loops to move interns toward roles where they'll actually shine If you're early in your career and unsure where you fit, this episode is a map to possibilities you may not know exist. Press play and rethink what an internship can really be. www.YourHealth.Org

What happens when a mentor gets more out of an accelerator than the founders do?Zak Morris joined the Fuel accelerator as a subject matter expert in AI — but quickly realized he was learning just as much as the companies he was advising. In this episode, Zak breaks down how working with startups across cybersecurity, AML, and healthcare sharpened his own thinking, why Bentonville's density of world-class talent is an underrated advantage, and how one early conversation with a founder led to a permanent board seat.Whether you're a founder, a seasoned professional sitting on the sidelines, or someone who's never thought of themselves as a mentor — this one's for you.

"We are cultivating community to support moms Bump & Beyond!" In this week's episode of the Sisters in Loss podcast, we are sitting down with the phenomenal Alexia Doumbouya (pronounced uh-LEK-see-uh DOOM-boy-yah). Alexia is the Founder and President of CocoLife (cocolife.black), an award-winning international speaker, certified Doula, and Childbirth Educator. With a Master's in Organizational Leadership and over 20 years of experience in Healthcare Administration and Public Health, Alexia is a true powerhouse and a leading voice in maternal health advocacy and doula workforce sustainability. Her life-changing work has been recognized by the CDC, March of Dimes, and CVS Health, and she has featured on major platforms including CNN, iHeart Media, and the US Department of Health and Human Services. Alexia's own path to motherhood with her two "Jr. Interns" (ages 14 and 6) was the catalyst for her life's work. Her eldest child was the exact reason she became a doula, and the heavy stories of maternal loss, mental health struggles, and obstetric systemic barriers she witnessed in her community became the driving force behind launching CocoLife. In this episode, Alexia shares how building a strong, faith-based village and growing in community allowed her to boldly walk into the purpose God called on her life. We discuss how she is actively bridging the gap between clinical healthcare and community-based doula support to save lives. In this episode, we discuss: Alexia's transition from public health administration to hands-on doula advocacy. How her 14-year-old inspired her to step into birth work. The birth of CocoLife and how it supports mothers from the "Bump & Beyond." The critical need for maternal health equity and sustainable doula workforces. The resources that keep her anchored, including Dr. Anita Phillips' The Garden Within, Dr. Cindy Trimm's Command Your Morning, and her indispensable village. If you are a birth worker, an advocate, or a mother looking to build a stronger village, Alexia's words will ignite your spirit and inspire you to walk boldly in your own calling.

In a recent interview with Alan Skorski, Dr. Jacob Agronin, a cardiology fellow, detailed the antisemitism he and other Jewish physicians face within their union — the Committee of Interns and Residents (CIR) — and explained why he felt compelled to testify before Congress. Dr. Agronin appeared before the House Subcommittee on Health, Employment, Labor, and Pensions to highlight what he described as the union's adoption of positions aligned with Hamas and Hezbollah supporters, amid broader concerns about antisemitism infiltrating healthcare — a field many expected to remain free of political and religious conflict. CIR, which represents more than 37,000 physicians and is affiliated with the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), has passed resolutions declaring Israel guilty of “apartheid” and “genocide,” endorsing the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement, and directing the union to oppose candidates who support legislation criminalizing BDS. The resolutions also reject equating antisemitism with anti-Zionism and claim that concerns over rising antisemitism are being exploited to stifle anti-Zionist organizing, according to Agronin's testimony. The union has also expressed support for figures associated with Hamas and Hezbollah, including Mahmood Khlail, a former Columbia University student targeted for deportation by the Trump administration. In his interview with Skorski, Agronin recounted noticing troubling signs about the union approximately a year ago when his hospital voted to join CIR. He described being disturbed by the organization's focus on anti-Israel positions that have nothing to do with patient care or medicine. When asked what motivated him to testify, Agronin told Skorski: “I didn't want any of this… but someone had to stand up and say something.” Agronin, a cardiology fellow at Temple University Hospital in Philadelphia, emphasized two primary concerns for Jewish doctors: being forced to pay dues to a union they did not choose that targets them and Israeli colleagues, and the politicization of medicine. He argued that CIR's resolutions align it with activists who disrupted college campuses following the Hamas-led Oct. 7, 2023, massacre in Israel. In the interview, Agronin noted that he first became aware of rising antisemitism on college campuses about 10 years ago and was surprised to see it extend into healthcare. He connected with the American Jewish Medical Association and the National Right to Work Legal Defense Fund for support before his congressional testimony. The testimony and interview come as reports of antisemitism in medical settings — including calls to exclude Israeli doctors and hostile environments for Jewish patients and providers — have increased since Oct. 7 -VIN News Watch the interview on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ni9pERXNv2Q Alan Skorski Reports 14JUNE2026 - PODCAST

Summer ministry is underway across the 16 countries where Josiah Venture serves, and this episode introduces several of the 2026 summer interns (Rachel Langley-Slovenia, Vince Johnson-Czech Republic, Aaron Connors-Ukraine, Anya Mediakovska-Ukraine, Isaiah Jackson-Latvia, Ryan Kepler-Estonia, Talitha Bowman-Ukraine, & Masha Horova-Ukraine), who are stepping into a season of service across Central and Eastern Europe. Hosted by Julia Budd, this episode features conversations with interns serving in Slovenia, the Czech Republic, Ukraine, Latvia, and Estonia. They share how God led them to Josiah Venture, what they learned through the Amazing Race and Intern Training, and what they are hoping God will do in and through them this summer. From returning interns continuing relationships with students, to Ukrainian interns serving their home country in the midst of war, to young adults discerning long-term missions, each story points to a shared desire: to make Christ known and serve the local church. We invite you to pray for all the interns as they begin summer ministry — for bold gospel conversations, unity in teams, strength for Ukrainian leaders, wisdom in cross-cultural ministry, physical endurance, spiritual rest, and students across Central and Eastern Europe to take steps toward Jesus. Specific prayer requests for each intern can be found in our Online Prayer Room, linked below.
