Welcome to the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence.On today's episode, Kelly Franchetti, CEO of The Patient View, nurse, rare disease mom, and seasoned patient insights expert joins Sara Payne for an essential conversation about the art and science of weaving patient insights into brand planning. As healthcare marketers dive into planning season, Kelly offers a strategic and practical playbook for moving beyond assumptions and building campaigns, support programs, and messaging that truly resonate with patients.We dig into the critical questions: Where do patient insights fit into the brand planning process? Why do so many organizations wait too long to seek patient feedback? And what real-world impacts have companies seen when they involved patients early vs. when they didn't? Kelly Franchetti shares powerful stories from triple-negative breast cancer rebrands to evolving support in rare diseases showcasing how early, authentic patient input can fundamentally change both creative direction and patient outcomes.This isn't just market research. Kelly Franchetti explains how agile, front-end insight work is different, faster, and often significantly less expensive than most teams assume. Practical guidance follows for working with tight budgets, leveraging advisory boards, and collaborating with agencies to get the strongest ROI from your patient engagement investments.Key TakeawaysMove Patient Insights Upstream: Too often, patient feedback is treated as a late-stage validation step testing messaging after it's already locked in. Kelly argues for bringing patients into the room from the very start of brand planning 02:21, when strategy, positioning, and creative direction are being formed. Early involvement is not just easier and less costly; it's foundational to building architecture that reflects real patient needs.Beware of Assumptions Even on Experienced Teams: Even sophisticated marketing teams can unconsciously operate from inside the brand, not inside the condition. Common assumptions such as what patients' biggest pain points are, or what support they need often miss the mark. Kelly Franchetti stresses that gaps arise not from lack of skill but from differing perspectives; closing those gaps during planning season is what drives real resonance and results 05:02, 07:54.Patient Insight vs. Market Research & Advisory Boards: Patient insight initiatives are not just another traditional market research project, nor are they interchangeable with advisory boards. Kelly Franchetti explains that patient insight work is quicker, more agile, and designed to shape hypotheses before they are fully formed 15:58. Advisory boards have their value for focused, tactical conversations, but fall short in surfacing the full breadth of patient perspectives required for foundational planning 20:41, 22:41.Involving the Patient Voice Isn't Out of Reach: Patient insights don't require big teams or massive budgets. Programs can be spun up quickly (in as little as two to three weeks) and at budgets starting as low as 10,000–15,000 17:41, 18:25. Kelly Franchetti encourages teams to explore what's possible with what they have rather than assuming time and cost are barriers.ROI Is Highest When Insights Inform Early Decisions: If you only have resources for one initiative, invest on the front end shaping strategic priorities and messaging pillars instead of saving for late-stage message testing. Testing confirms, but early input shapes 26:46. Realigning plans after launch is always possible pulse checks midyear are fast and affordable 32:30 but the greatest ROI comes from minimizing assumptions upfront, regularly calendaring patient insight check-ins, and being honest about where the plan is built on guesses versus knowledge.Thank you for being part of the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence.

Learning leaders are often asked to solve performance challenges with more training but that may not be the answer. Kathryn Murrow, Director of Leadership Development and eLearning at the restaurant chain Bojangles, explains why the most effective learning organizations spend more time asking questions than building courses. She shares lessons on collaboration, leadership development, AI, and creating learning experiences that people truly own.Show Notes:Kathryn Murrow of Bojangles talks about the importance of co-creation with learners, diagnosing root causes, and using AI to elevate the role of L&D. Her key takeaways include: Start with the root cause—not the training request. Before building another course, learning leaders should ask what behavior needs to change, why the problem exists, and whether training is actually the right solution.Build learning with your audience, not for them. Involving leaders and frontline employees in designing learning experiences creates stronger buy-in, better content, and more sustainable adoption.Learning succeeds when the conditions are right. Organizations need alignment, clear expectations, leadership support, and the right performance environment before learning initiatives can drive meaningful change.An LMS should be more than a compliance checklist. Kathryn shares how Bojangles is transforming its LMS into a personalized learning hub that connects development opportunities with business outcomes and measurable ROI.AI should create space for more human work. Rather than replacing people, AI can automate administrative tasks so learning professionals can spend more time on coaching, strategy, performance consulting, and measuring impact.Powered by Learning earned Awards of Distinction in the Podcast/Audio and Business Podcast categories from The Communicator Awards and a Gold and Silver Davey Award.

Does your dental practice clearly communicate what makes it different, or does it look and sound like every other office in your market? In this episode, Kirk Behrendt talks with Carlie Einarson, dental practice coach, about a four-step process for creating a practice that reflects what you value and attracts the patients you want to serve. You will learn how to differentiate your practice, define your core customer, identify your core competencies, recognize weaknesses, and align your team and patient experience around a clear strategy. To build a practice around what you do best and the patients you want to serve, listen to Episode 1083 of The Best Practices Show!Main Takeaways:Differentiation starts with clearly defining what your practice stands for rather than relying on convenience, insurance participation, technology, or other features competitors can replicate.Practices should identify their core customers by examining the patients who value treatment, respect the team, keep appointments, pay their bills, and refer others.Involving the team in defining the ideal patient creates alignment and can reveal patient characteristics the dentist may overlook.Core competencies should be meaningful strengths that patients value and competitors cannot easily imitate, rather than equipment, general labels, or expected levels of service.Consistently communicating what the dentist and practice care about helps attract patients who share those values.Practices should identify weaknesses such as poor systems, limited team development, weak treatment presentation skills, or gaps in the patient experience and address them strategically.Staying focused on your own strategy, values, patients, and strengths is more useful than trying to compete with another practice's size, technology, hours, or services.Episode Chapters:00:00 Intro02:51 Why branding matters05:35 Differentiation as a strategy for standing out.07:06 Trust as the real product12:00 Identifying the core customer you want to serve.17:19 Defining your ideal patient with your team.23:00 Identifying and communicating your core competencies.28:50 Consistently talking about what your practice cares about.31:00 Identifying weaknesses with self-awareness and team feedback.33:51Clinical development, systems, and treatment presentation weaknesses.38:11Staying true to your core purpose and values.40:00 Staying focused instead of competing with other practices.41:00 The Differentiation Tool and Strategic Marketing Guide.Guest Bio/Guest Resources:Carlie Einarson is a lead practice coach who has a passion for helping others succeed in the dental field.

Samuel Ben-Ur: President Trump has announced a tentative Hamas deal involving a phased disarmament and the transition of governance to a National Committee. However, the plan faces significant hurdles, as Israel demands the complete destruction of terror infrastructure before any withdrawal. Hamas seeks to retain small arms, potentially leading to a Hezbollah-style shadow governance. This diplomatic friction coincides with a tight Israeli election between Benjamin Netanyahu and Gadi Eisenkot. Netanyahu faces criticism for allowing US interests to dictate Israeli policy, particularly regarding Iran's ballistic missile threat. Voters are increasingly focused on national security autonomy and the domestic cost of living ahead of the October polls. (8)1585 GAZA

In Pakistan, the punishment for a blasphemy conviction is the death penalty. While no one has yet been executed under these laws, many allegations frequently result in lengthy legal battles, prolonged imprisonment, and significant other hardships for the accused and their families. False allegations have led to riots and Christians being killed. Closer to the Fire host Greg Musselman is joined by Rev. Salim Arthur, who knows firsthand what can happen when false blasphemy allegations are made. Rev. Arthur was arrested, imprisoned, tortured and nearly lost his life, and his family had to go into hiding in Pakistan after a Muslim teenage girl came to Christ. He is the founder and president of ASRA International Ministries, which serves persecuted Christians, refugees, and vulnerable communities. Rev. Salim is also a pastor of the South Asian Bible Church in Brampton, Ontario and the author of the book “Saved to Serve” Length: 58 minutes Episode Notes To watch the interview with Salim Arthur https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvruWWRkAH0 South Asian Bible Church and Asylum Seekers Resettlement Advocacy https://www.asraministries.com To Order Saved to Serve by Salim Arthur Saved to Serve: A Memoir: Salim Arthur: 9798385059201 - Christianbook.com The Voice of the Martyrs Canada www.vomcanada.com Jaranwala Persecution https://www.vomcanada.com/video/pk-2025-03-21.htm

STREAMING THE MAKING OF THE JBS, 7-29-26The provided text is a transcript from the John Batchelor Show, featuring a detailed discussion between hosts and experts regarding escalating geopolitical tensions involving China, Iran, and the South China Sea. The speakers highlight provocative Chinese military actions, including maritime bullying of Filipino personnel and the rare launch of a first-strike missile system from a submarine. Experts also examine a reported arms deal between China and Iran for anti-aircraft missiles, suggesting this marks a significant escalation in global instability. Additionally, the dialogue explores domestic turmoil within the Chinese Communist Party, specifically focusing on vacancies in the Central Military Commission and the unusual absence of Xi Jinping from high-profile commemorative events. Finally, the segment addresses the strained diplomatic and economic relations between the United States and Canada, noting a shift in Canadian public perception toward China and the U.S. amid trade disputes.

“Prahlada Maharaja said: O Supreme Lord, because You are so merciful to the fallen souls, I ask You for only one benediction. I know that my father, at the time of his death, had already been purified by Your glance upon him, but because of his ignorance of Your beautiful power and supremacy, he was unnecessarily angry at You, falsely thinking that You were the killer of his brother. Thus he directly blasphemed Your Lordship, the spiritual master of all living beings, and committed heavily sinful activities directed against me, Your devotee. I wish that he be excused for these sinful activities.” (Shrimad Bhagavatam, 7.10.15-17)

STREAMING MAKING JBS, 7-27-261926 SOUTH CAROLINA OF THE LATE SENATOR L. GRAHAMThe provided text contains transcripts from the John Batchelor Show, featuring discussions on the geopolitical instability involving Iran, Ukraine, and Gaza. Experts Hussein Hakani and Bill Roggio analyze the stalled diplomacy between the United States and Iran, suggesting that behind-the-scenes negotiations likely continue despite public denials and ongoing military tensions. The dialogue explores the Caspian Sea's emergence as a potential conflict zone, particularly after a Ukrainian strike on an Iranian tanker intended to disrupt the Moscow-Tehran alliance. The participants also critique the unconventional communication styles of U.S. leadership, arguing that inconsistent messaging complicates long-term strategic goals. Finally, the discussion shifts to Gaza, where Sam Benner reports on the targeted killings of Hamas security officials and the slow implementation of international stabilization forces from Morocco and Uganda. Combined, these segments portray a fragmented global landscape where air power remains insufficient for regime change and humanitarian efforts are often compromised by local militant control.

A capital campaign is too large, too complex, and too consequential for one staff member to carry alone. In this episode of All About Capital Campaigns, Amy Eisenstein and Andrea Kihlstedt explain why engaging more people in your campaign can lead to larger gifts, stronger decisions, and a far less lonely experience for the person responsible for fundraising.For many development directors, involving volunteers can feel like creating more work. Volunteers may miss meetings, arrive unprepared, dominate conversations, or fail to follow through. Faced with these possibilities, nonprofit leaders may decide it would be faster and easier to manage the campaign themselves.Amy and Andrea make the case that this instinct can limit a campaign's success. Drawing on decades of capital campaign experience, Andrea shares that volunteers frequently account for 60% to 70% of the people who ultimately give to a campaign. When people participate in shaping a campaign, they become more connected to its purpose. That engagement often makes them more likely to contribute and more willing to make a significant gift.The solution is not to recruit one large campaign committee and ask every member to serve for several years. Instead, Amy and Andrea recommend creating a series of short-term, phase-specific committees, task forces, or working groups.One group might help develop the case for support during pre-campaign planning. Another might participate in the feasibility study. Later groups can assist with campaign planning, leadership gifts, the public kickoff, or a campaign celebration. Each assignment has a defined purpose and a limited duration.This structure makes it easier for busy people to say yes. A prospective volunteer may hesitate to accept a three-year commitment but gladly agree to attend three meetings or work on one defined project over two months. It also gives campaign leaders a natural way to identify their most effective volunteers. People who contribute useful ideas, complete assignments, and work well with others can be invited into future phases. Those who are unreliable or disruptive can be thanked and released when the short-term group concludes.Volunteer engagement offers another benefit that goes beyond fundraising. Staff members, no matter how experienced, see the organization and its campaign from a limited perspective. Volunteers can challenge assumptions, sharpen the case for support, share lessons from other campaigns, and contribute expertise the staff may not possess.For example, a volunteer with real estate experience may help an organization evaluate property or identify potential sites. Someone who has served on another campaign committee can explain how they approached donor conversations. A longtime community leader may know how different audiences will respond to the proposed project. These perspectives can produce a stronger campaign plan and a more compelling case.The central lesson is simple: campaign volunteers are not merely extra hands. They can become donors, advocates, problem-solvers, connectors, and future campaign leaders. With clear assignments and thoughtful committee structures, involving more people does not have to create chaos. It can distribute responsibility, strengthen the campaign, and help your organization raise more money.For more free capital campaign resources, visit https://capitalcampaignpro.com/campaign-resources.

Peter Huessy explains "extended deterrence," the U.S. nuclear umbrella protecting allies from aggression. Huessy critiques a proposal to delegate nuclear authority to a "three-key" system involving France and the UK, arguing it would create dangerous indecision during a crisis. He notes that allies increasingly doubt U.S. resolve. Strategy has shifted toward "counterforce" targets, aiming to disable an enemy's leadership and military capability rather than destroying cities, to provide "flexible response" options. (11)1900

Rebekah Brown Olson didn't plan to lead a state CPA society. A single leadership assessment during a firm training session reframed how she saw her own strengths, and thirteen years later she's the CEO of the Maryland Association of CPAs, connecting firm leaders across the profession every day. In this conversation, Brannon Poe talks with Rebekah about what's really driving change in accounting right now, and why she believes community, not information, is what separates firms that thrive from firms that struggle.Rebekah shares an encouraging read on the student pipeline, pointing to strong turnout and impressive second-career candidates at a recent University of Maryland accounting graduation event. She also walks through her theory on where private equity is headed: a barbell shaped profession, with large firms formed through consolidation on one end and a new wave of small, independent firms on the other, as CPAs who leave newly acquired environments choose to build something of their own.For firm owners thinking about their own exit, Rebekah's advice centers on two habits: treating strategy as something to revisit constantly rather than a plan that sits on a shelf, and involving the people around you early, since real alignment comes from letting your team weigh in on where the firm is headed.The Conversation Covers:How a leadership assessment redirected Rebekah's entire career pathWhy community may be the biggest differentiator for CPA firms over the next decadeHow private equity could reshape the profession into a barbell-shaped structureWhy small firms are positioned to specialize and move faster than larger competitorsHow involving your team early creates real strategic alignment ahead of a transitionWhy choosing the right private equity partner matters more than the deal itselfRebekah closes with a story from her college years at Ohio State, working as a football field manager during a live scrimmage, that ties back to the same theme running through the whole conversation: what it looks like when a community shows up for someone.This Episode Is For:Firm owners curious about how community and connection shape long-term successLeaders ready to think through a 5 to 10 year exit and succession planPractitioners wondering how private equity might change hiring, retention, and cultureAnyone interested in how small firms can compete through specialization and speedBook Recommendation:The Upside of Stress: Why Stress Is Good for You, and How to Get Good at It by Dr. Kelly McGonigal Amazon linkTimestamps:00:00 - Brannon Poe intro and podcast welcome 00:14 - Introducing Rebekah Brown Olson, CEO of the Maryland Association of CPAs 00:57 - How a quarter-life crisis and a leadership assessment changed Rebekah's career path 01:41 - From CPA firm senior to curriculum developer at the Maryland Association of CPAs 03:12 - Working part time, then full time, then becoming CEO three years ago 04:02 - What Brannon and Rebekah share: burning out of public practice and finding a better fit 04:45 - What Rebekah gets to do now: advocate for the profession and connect people across it 05:06 - The big picture view: what the Maryland Association of CPAs CEO is seeing right now 05:31 - Why getting good at change is the most important capability for any accounting firm 06:00 - Why community is the competitive advantage when complexity and change accelerate 06:34 - Why you can't know everything but you can know a lot of people 07:19 - Recruiting new students: are the numbers moving and what kind of students are coming in 08:15 - Why the pipeline alarm is starting to work and what recent graduation events are showing 08:40 - Accounting as a stable major during economic uncertainty 09:07 - What the new wave of accounting students looks like: different backgrounds, strong leaders 09:30 - Retention: are people staying in the profession better than they used to?

Why are Texas school children as young as 10 years old ending up in trouble with the law? Data shows how districts across the state are arresting and citing children for common misbehavior. The children are left with lasting trauma as the Legislature rejects bills to raise the age of criminal responsibility and floods schools with even more police.

Most of us spend years trying to figure out money - what to do with it, how to invest it, how to make it work harder. But imagine if someone had taught you the fundamentals when you were a child.   Because here's what I've seen over the years - the families who build lasting generational wealth don't just accumulate assets. They pass on the mindset, the habits, and the financial literacy that lets the next generation take it even further.   So what if we could give our kids that advantage? What if we could raise children who grow up genuinely confident about money, investing, and building wealth - instead of spending their adult years trying to unlearn bad money habits?   And don't worry if you don't have children yet or are not planning to have children. There'll be lots in today's show to help you with your money habits.   My guest today - Sarah Megginson is one of Australia's most recognised personal finance experts, with over 20 years of experience in property, finance and investment journalism.  Her new book is called "How to Raise Rich Kids: Build Lasting Wealth for Your Children" - and it's a genuinely practical guide for any parent who wants to get this right, whether they feel totally on top of their own finances or are still working it out themselves.   In this episode I'm speaking with Sarah Megginson about raising financially confident kids and why money habits start earlier than most parents realise.   We unpack how children absorb money attitudes from home, and why your own behaviour shapes their financial future.   We discuss practical ways to teach budgeting, saving, and decision-making through everyday moments like shopping and family conversations.   We also look at how digital money, credit, and buy now, pay later can confuse young people without proper guidance.   Finally, we explore why the real legacy is not just wealth, but financial intelligence, confidence, and family values.   Takeaways   • Early money lessons at home shape children's habits long before adulthood. • Open conversations about money reduce fear and build financial confidence. • Children learn budgeting faster when they help compare real prices. • Digital spending removes friction, making impulse purchases easier to justify. • Buy now, pay later can hide debt from young people's awareness. • Parental stress around money often becomes children's emotional money blueprint. • Passing on financial intelligence matters more than handing over assets. • Involving kids in decisions builds responsibility and long-term confidence. • Reframing "we can't afford that" teaches values, not scarcity. • Regular family money talks help prevent silence, shame, and poor financial choices.   Links and Resources:   Answer this week's trivia question here - https://www.propertytrivia.com.au/ •        Win a hard copy of Negotiate Influence Persuade. •        Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report – What's ahead for property for 2026 and beyond.   Michael Yardney – Subscribe to my Property Update newsletter here     Sarah Megginson's Book How to Raise Rich Kids -  https://www.amazon.com.au/How-Raise-Rich-Kids-Children/dp/1923390244   Get a bundle of eBooks and Reports at: www.PodcastBonus.com.au      Get the team at Metropole to create a Strategic Property plan for your needs.

What does it mean to "see God again" after modernity has taught us to look for the sacred in all the wrong ways? In this special Lectern conversation, John Vervaeke is joined by Guy Sengstock for a deep reflection on John's three-part course trilogy, Seeing God Again for the First Time. John invited Guy to watch the courses and respond not only to their arguments, but to the way the courses enact a philosophical, phenomenological, and spiritual exercise. Guy begins from his own background as co-founder of Circling, describing how relational practice opened a mystery that psychological language could not fully hold, eventually leading him into Heidegger, phenomenology, and philosophy as contemplation. From there, he draws out the personal and pedagogical arc of John's work: teaching as encounter, as vulnerability, and as a way of revealing what students are already confronted with. John describes the course as an attempt to integrate rigorous argument, phenomenological exploration, and spiritual exercise in the spirit of Socrates, Plotinus, and Pierre Hadot. Rather than define religion or God and then argue for or against them, John sets out to deconstruct the modern grammar that blocks our ability to encounter sacredness at all: the fact/value, is/ought, subjective/objective, theory/data, and meaning/measurement dichotomies. The conversation moves through Paul Tillich, William Desmond, Wittgenstein, Heidegger, Catherine Pickstock, Janet Soskice, D.C. Schindler, and 4E cognitive science, showing how analytic philosophy, continental phenomenology, and cognitive science converge in undermining modernity's inherited picture. Guy and John explore sacredness as ultimately real, ultimately orienting, ultimately transformative, and ultimately resonant; naming as relational participation rather than possession; wonder as calling self and world into question; and aletheia as truth that discloses beauty, goodness, and intelligibility. The conversation closes with the contemporary stakes of this recovery: AI, consciousness, personhood, the meaning crisis, and the alignment problem. John argues that we can no longer treat philosophy and sacredness as academic luxuries when our technologies are reshaping cognition, identity, and agency. If we are creating new kinds of intelligence, the question is not merely how to bind them to us, but how to orient them - and ourselves - toward truth, goodness, beauty, intelligibility, and the sacred. Guy Sengstock is a co-founder of Circling and a longtime teacher of relational, dialogical, and contemplative practice. His work bridges phenomenology, philosophy, facilitation, and the lived mystery of interpersonal encounter.

Michael Vorenberg challenges the idea that the Civil War ended at Appomattox Courthouse on April 9, 1865. While Lee's surrender was a crucial step involving the stacking of arms, Lincoln did not publicly declare the war over. Lincolnremained focused on the ongoing process of reconstruction. (9)1863.

STREAMING THE MAKING OF THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, FEATURING BILL ROGGIO, HUSAIN HAQQANI, SAMUEL BEN-UR, 6-22-261903 PERSIAThe provided text is a transcript from the John Batchelor Show featuring a deep-dive discussion on the fragile diplomatic landscape involving the United States, Iran, and Israel. The participants analyze the "ceaseless fire" in Lebanon and the Straits of Hormuz, questioning the validity of reported progress in peace talks hosted in Switzerland. Hussain Haqqani provides a skeptical view of the American leadership's lack of a clear endgame, while Bill Roggioemphasizes Iran's strategic leverage over vital shipping lanes. A significant portion of the dialogue focuses on Pakistanand Qatar emerging as unexpected mediators between the warring factions. Additionally, the conversation addresses the sidelined status of Hamas, suggesting a rift has formed between the group and its Iranian backers. Ultimately, the sources paint a picture of a stalemated conflict where threats often substitute for actionable military or diplomatic solutions.1903 PERSIA

Nick Lloyd. Guest Nick Lloyd discusses his ambition to provide a comprehensive narrative of the Western Front, emphasizing it as a massive coalition war involving multiple empires. He explains his focus on the operational level of senior commanders, aiming to challenge the persistent "lions led by donkeys" myth. By examining the immense pressures and dilemmas faced by leadership, Lloyd hopes to offer a more nuanced and "cooler" perspective on the war's conduct a century later. He reveals that this book is the first in a trilogy, with subsequent volumes planned for the Eastern Frontand the global conflict in the Middle East and Africa. The discussion highlights how events on other fronts, such as Russia or the high seas, constantly influenced decision-making in the decisive Western theater. Ultimately, Lloyd views the Western Front as the place where the war was won or lost by the collision of four great powers: Germany, France, Britain, and America. 11914 CONRAD
