Congratulations to the exceptional Kaiser Permanente vascular research team in Northern California led by Dr. Gaurav Sharma and Dr. Robert Chang for receiving this prestigious honor as “Walking As Therapy Research Team of the Year” through the Global PAD Impact Awards, presented by the Global PAD Association! Walking As Therapy Research Team members Dr. Robert Chang, Dr. Gaurav Sharma, Dr. Joy Garg, Crystal Short, Noelle Blick, and Hanan Krayem are transforming PAD management and proving that sometimes the most powerful medicine is simply putting one foot in front of the other. This innovative team is pioneering groundbreaking research on remote Supervised Exercise Therapy (SET) for Walking, using a novel app with a “Peloton Style” experience designed specifically for patients with Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD). What also sets their program apart is the comprehensive follow-up support that extends beyond the initial three-month, 36-session program. This extended care significantly improves patient compliance with “walking as medicine,” helping patients grow their own natural bypasses around leg artery blockages. Join our upcoming interview to learn more about this remarkable program and meet the dedicated research team behind it! You'll also gain valuable insights into the science of how walking actually improves circulation in the legs.

Alan Gregerman is the President and Chief Innovation Officer at VENTURE WORKS Inc, a consulting firm that helps organizations create innovative strategies, products, and services. He is a keynote speaker, award-winning author, and business consultant who helps companies and organizations unlock their teams' genius zones. For over 25 years, Alan has designed and delivered high-impact keynotes for organizations, including Google, Marriott, Verizon, Mercedes-Benz, Kaiser-Permanente, Citibank, and Lockheed Martin. In this episode… With the speed of innovation, businesses often fall into the trap of relying on what they already know. While past expertise can bring incremental improvements, it rarely sparks the kind of breakthroughs that transform industries. How can companies avoid getting stuck in the comfort of their knowledge and uncover fresh ideas to stay relevant? Innovation expert Alan Gregerman encourages brands to embrace enlightened ignorance, a mindset that values curiosity, humility, and openness to the unknown. Outsiders often disrupt industries because they see problems without being blinded by past experiences. Alan also emphasizes the importance of balancing iteration with innovation, continually raising the bar for customer expectations, and finding creative ways to differentiate in increasingly competitive markets. He pushes leaders to reevaluate their expertise and adopt a mindset of constant learning. In this episode of the Up Arrow Podcast, William Harris chats with Alan Gregerman, President and Chief Innovation Officer at VENTURE WORKS Inc, about how enlightened ignorance can catalyze innovation. Alan discusses why outsiders often spark breakthroughs, how businesses can balance iteration with bold innovation, and why raising customer expectations is crucial to long-term growth.

The Skin Real app is officially LIVE! Download it now. Download my Free Guide 'In My Perimenopause Era' Download the Ultimate Affordable Skincare Guide When was the last time you thought about your vulvar health? If your answer is “never,” you're not alone. Most women avoid talking or even thinking about this part of their body, but during perimenopause and menopause, changes in vulvar and vaginal health can have a huge impact on your comfort, confidence, and quality of life. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Diana Londoño, a urologist who is breaking the silence on intimate health. We talk about the changes estrogen loss brings—from dryness, itching, painful sex, and recurrent UTIs to the lesser-known issues like bladder urgency and vulvar atrophy. She also explains how simple solutions like vaginal estrogen cream, hormone therapy, and lifestyle tweaks can protect your vulvar health and prevent years of suffering. ✨ Key Takeaways: Why vulvar health is central to your bladder, vaginal, and sexual health during menopause. How to know if your symptoms are normal aging or a red flag that needs further evaluation. The connection between UTIs, GSM (genitourinary syndrome of menopause), and vulvar atrophy. Why vaginal estrogen is safe, preventative, and worth considering even if you're not sexually active. How stress and mindset affect bladder symptoms and overall well-being. If you've ever felt embarrassed, ignored, or confused about what's happening “down there,” this episode will give you clarity and confidence. Dr. Diana Londoño is a Board-Certified Urologist and one of the 10% of urologists in the US who are women and the 0.5% who are Latinx and women.  She is originally from Mexico City and attended Claremont McKenna College for her undergraduate studies and then went on to attend UCLA for medical school.  She completed a 6-year residency in Urology at Kaiser Permanente in Los Angeles.   She has experienced burnout twice, which has led her to write and speak about it to raise awareness and help others. She has published multiple articles in prominent medical platforms, including Medscape, Doximity, Kevin MD, Men's Health, Giddy.com, and WebMD, among others. She is also a contributing author to the books “Thriving After Burnout” and “Medic S.O.S.”  She has also been a guest on numerous podcasts, discussing various topics, including wellness, stress, spirituality, and energy.   Her burnout journey led her to become a certified life coach and founder of Physician Coach Support.com, a peer support platform she ran for 3 years. In 2022, she received the Los Angeles County Medical Association Physician Leadership Award for her work.    She is an international speaker and guest on multiple podcasts, discussing topics such as wellness, boundaries, ego, humanity in medicine, mindset, and mindfulness. She has also been featured on TV on Univision, Telemundo, Mundo Fox, CNN Latino, KCET, and ABC News as a health consultant discussing urological topics.   She is also a Reiki Master, a Pranic Healer and the mother of two determined and joyful 7- —and 9-year-old girls, Daniela and Paloma.   Follow Dr. Londoño here:   Website -https://dianalondonomd.com/ LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/dianalondonomd/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/dianalondonomd/ YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@dianalondonomd   Want more expert skin advice without the overwhelm?

Dewayne Hart is a distinguished cybersecurity leader whose insights bridge military precision and corporate strategy. A retired U.S. Navy Chief Petty Officer, he laid the groundwork for his expert mindset in technology defence before founding Secure Managed Instructional Systems (SEMAIS) in 2014, advising clients such as PwC, Kaiser Permanente, and U.S. federal agencies. Beyond his consultancy, Dewayne has earned recognition as an author and thought leader. His 2022 book, The Cybersecurity Mindset: A Virtual and Transformational Thinking Mode, and his podcast The Chief of Cybersecurity showcase his talent for translating complex threats into actionable, human-centred guidance. Represented by The Champions Speakers Agency, Dewayne is also a leading keynote speaker who continues to inspire global audiences. Alongside his ongoing work as CEO and Founder, he delivers cutting-edge insights on leadership, AI, workforce readiness, and cyber resilience. Q1. What inspired your transition from military service to cybersecurity, and how has that background shaped your approach to the field? Dewayne Hart: "When I retired from the military about 15 years ago, I was supposed to be a leadership coach. And then during the time I was studying for my master's degree programme, I walked into the office and I noticed that a friend of mine was studying for his CISSP certification. "I picked up the book, browsed through it a couple of times and said, "You know what? I think that I want to branch into the cybersecurity industry." "And so after that I started to study the CISSP certification, passed it, and then from there I became one of the people that were interested in cybersecurity. But later on I started to do some other things such as writing, starting the podcast, and here I am today working in the cybersecurity industry. It has been very rewarding. "But I thank my friend for leaving that book on the desk because if he had not left that book there, I would probably have been a leadership coach today. Now, there's nothing wrong about being a leadership coach, but I think that the cybersecurity industry is much more rewarding." Q2. Many organisations ask, "How can we become proactive rather than reactive?" From your experience, how should businesses assess and build their security capabilities to stay ahead of threats? Dewayne Hart: "As I have walked through the industry and met a great number of people working from all walks of life, the number one question they always ask me is: how can we become proactive? "My answer is always standard and it's always the same. You need to understand your security capabilities. Your security capabilities make a determination on whether you know what's on your enterprise or whether you do not know what's on your enterprise. It can also branch into cyber visibility. Do you have visible indication of where your weaknesses are? "There are some intricate programmes that must work in tandem in order for leaders to understand their security capabilities. One is your asset management programmes. Two is your configuration management programme. "Three is your vulnerability management programme. If you can take those three programmes and have them work in tandem, you can understand your security capabilities. But also, too, adding in your cyber tools and your cyber threat intelligence programmes - those are going to help you out as well. "If you add those into your asset management, your configuration management and your vulnerability management programme, you will have an accurate indication of your security capabilities. Because if you don't have an accurate indication of your security capabilities, then this is how you create those blind spots. "Blind spots are those areas of your enterprise that are sneaking under the radar. They only become active when hackers find out where they are. So if you understand your security capabilities, then you can beat hackers to the finish line." Q3. Traditionally, the 'human el...

Kidney stones are intensely painful and can affect people of all ages. While they tend to develop silently over time, their symptoms can appear suddenly, typically as severe back or side pain, blood in the urine, or persistent nausea. Though dehydration is a leading cause, certain diets, medications, and underlying health conditions can all play a role in stone formation. On this episode of the Healthier You Podcast, Dr. Ashlee Williams talks with Dr. Nwamaka Fadahunsi, a board-certified urologist at Kaiser Permanente, to explore what causes kidney stones, how they're diagnosed and treated, and how to prevent them.

It's Wednesday, August 27th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark India threatens life in prison for sharing Christ Christians may face life in prison for simply sharing the Gospel in India. The country's northern state of Uttarakhand amended its anti-conversion law last week. Violations are now punishable by life imprisonment. The law also cracks down on sharing one's faith through social media. Rev. Vijayesh Lal told Morning Star News, “These provisions, with penalties up to life imprisonment, represent some of India's harshest anti-conversion measures and could turn ordinary conversations about belief into criminal acts.” Please pray for the church in India. The country is ranked 11th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of the most difficult places to be a Christian.  Trump imposes 50% tariffs on India over funding Russian war The U.S. imposed new tariffs on exports from India starting today. The tariffs come in response to India's continued purchasing of Russian oil. President Donald Trump's levies on Indian exports are at 50% now. India has become one of the top buyers of Russian oil since Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022. The Trump administration is accusing India of effectively funding Russia's war through its oil purchases.  5,000 Irish march for Jesus Around 5,000 people joined the March for Jesus in Belfast, Northern Ireland over the weekend. Rev. John Ahern organized the event. He told Christian Daily International, “As the people of God, if we're willing to humble ourselves and pray, as the Bible says in 2 Chronicles 7:14, and turn from our wicked ways, God has promised to hear from Heaven, forgive our sin and heal our land.” The event builds on last year's march in Dublin where about 12,000 Christians participated. Another march in Dublin is scheduled for next month.  2 Chronicles 7:14 says, “If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from Heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.” Minnesota Christian colleges allowed to offer free credit to high schoolers A U.S. District Court ruled in favor of faith-based colleges in Minnesota last Friday. Previously, the state barred such colleges from offering free college credit to high school students. Minnesota parents successfully challenged the decision with the help of The Becket Fund for Religious Liberty.  Diana Thomson, senior counsel at Becket, said, “Minnesota tried to cut off educational opportunities to thousands of high schoolers simply for their faith. That's not just unlawful—it's shameful. This ruling is a win for families who won't be strong-armed into abandoning their beliefs, and a sharp warning to politicians who target them.” D.C. hospital halts transgender drugs on minors ABC News reports that Children's National Hospital in Washington, D.C. will no longer offer transgender drugs to minors.  It's the latest hospital in the U.S. to stop offering so-called “gender transition” drugs. Other hospitals to make similar decisions include Yale Medicine, Kaiser Permanente, Children's Hospital Los Angeles, and UChicago Medicine.  These decisions follow President Trump's executive order to end federal funding for transgender procedures on minors. U.S. gov't owns 10% of Intel stocks Last Friday, Intel announced an $8.9 billion investment in the company's stock by the U.S. government. This means the government will own about 10% of the computer chip manufacturer. The deal converts government grants into equity share in the company.  On Truth Social, President Trump wrote, “The United States paid nothing for these Shares, and the Shares are now valued at approximately $11 Billion Dollars. This is a great Deal for America and, also, a great Deal for INTEL.” 100-year-long German prayer chain And finally, this week is the anniversary of when a Christian community in Herrnhut, Germany began a round-the-clock “prayer chain.” The community started after Count Nikolaus Ludwig von Zinzendorf opened his estate to Protestant refugees. On August 27, 1727, dozens in the community committed to pray, in turns, every hour of every day. The prayer chain reportedly lasted over one hundred years. The Moravian community went on to send hundreds of missionaries around the world, becoming the spearhead of Protestant missions.  Colossians 4:2 says, “Continue earnestly in prayer, being vigilant in it with thanksgiving.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, August 27th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

My guest for Episode #323 of the My Favorite Mistake podcast is Grace Bourke, Consulting Director of the Performance Excellence Practice at Baker Tilly. With nearly 40 years of experience in healthcare quality improvement and industrial engineering, Grace has worked in clinical care, biotech, global public health, and senior leadership roles at organizations including Kaiser Permanente and Sutter Health.' Episode page Grace shares a very personal favorite mistake — the challenges of building a new home that turned into a nightmare of mold, leaks, and structural flaws. What began as a house problem quickly became a more profound lesson in trust, verification, and speaking up — themes that resonate far beyond construction and directly into the world of healthcare. “Trust and verify becomes trust and vigilant, educated verification.” – Grace Bourke She reflects on how her tendency to trust inspections and processes, while ignoring her own instincts, parallels what often happens in healthcare systems when leaders or staff don't feel psychologically safe to raise concerns. Grace connects her experience to the importance of leadership accountability, patient safety, and continuous improvement, noting that healthcare still struggles to admit mistakes and act decisively to prevent harm. We also talk about the role of psychological safety, second opinions, and lifelong learning, both in our personal lives and in healthcare. Grace shares how hobbies like glass fusing remind her that safe spaces for experimentation and “planned mistakes” can strengthen resilience, creativity, and growth. “We can't fix the whole world, but we can fix our small piece — and that makes a difference.” – Grace Bourke Questions and Topics: What's your favorite mistake? Was the mistake choosing this builder, or not verifying inspections before closing? Why do you think you didn't speak up more during the building process? How does this experience connect to psychological safety in healthcare? What have you learned about yourself from going through this? How do you put the house problems into perspective? Has the builder taken responsibility or apologized? What parallels do you see between this home-building experience and healthcare improvement? Why is it so hard for healthcare organizations to admit mistakes? What role does leadership play in creating safer systems? How do hobbies like glass fusing help you practice learning from mistakes? What do you mean by “the mistake you're planning”? What gives you hope for improvement in healthcare, despite the challenges?

Send us a textFrom launching Kaiser Permanente's first website to building a global food & wine CEU tourism company, today's guest has reinvented herself across medicine, tech, education, and entrepreneurship. We are diving into the story of June Forkner Dunn, a trailblazing nurse who has redefined what's possible in leadership, innovation, and global vision.June began her career in healthcare, founding Medical Consulting Resources—a company that provided expert witnesses in malpractice litigation, managing a team of nearly 20 doctors, nurses, and respiratory therapists. Her journey then took her to the corporate offices of Kaiser Permanente, where she held two groundbreaking roles: writing and presenting the Corporate Board Report for 13 Northern California hospitals, and later, helping to launch KP's very first website in the early 2000s—implementing tools we now take for granted like emailing your doctor, renewing prescriptions online, and even using early AI to track patient discussion trends. She was using AI before we even knew what it was! And did I mention she has authored over 600 publications?If that wasn't enough, she spent 20 years as a faculty member at San Francisco State University—and then reinvented herself again by founding the first company in the U.S. to offer continuing education units to nurses through international food and wine tourism. Her company, Wine Knows Travel, now operates in 13 countries around the world.Get ready for an inspiring conversation about vision, reinvention, and what it takes to be decades ahead of the curve. June's journey is a masterclass in innovation, leadership, and knowing when to break the mold.In the five-minute snippet: it's an old, I mean vintage word, and I love it.

Did you know anxiety can show up not just as excessive worry, but as muscle tension, headaches, or trouble sleeping? Anxiety is a common part of life—from big events and tough decisions to everyday stress—but sometimes it disrupts how we feel and function. In this episode, Dr. Ashlee Williams is joined by Dr. Jessica Reddy, a psychiatrist at Kaiser Permanente to break down the most common signs of anxiety—and, more importantly, what you can actually do to feel better.

Dr. Ashlee Williams speaks with Dr. Jessica Reddy, a board-certified psychiatrist at Kaiser Permanente, to explore how regular use of alcohol and cannabis can quietly undermine your health and wellbeing—and share steps you can take to regain balance.

Kaiser Permanente will stop providing gender-affirming surgeries for patients under the age of 19, as a result of President Trump's executive order targeting health centers that provide care for transgender youth. Providers across the nation have been scaling back on gender-affirming care, including Stanford Medicine and Children's Hospital Los Angeles, but Kaiser's decision has shocked many providers and patients in the Bay Area. We talk with nurses, advocates, patients and specialists about what it means for them and the future of healthcare for gender-nonconforming minors. Guests: Michelle Jurkiewicz, licensed clinical psychologist and gender specialist Sydney Simpson, nurse, Kaiser Permanente S.

Today we discuss “gender affirming surgeries”, AI and the future of cognition, and wild foxes. Kaiser Permanente is pausing surgery on trans-presenting children—we discuss sex and gender, meaning and identity, delusion and madness. Then: unlike the physical multiverse, mental multiverses are common, and becoming more so, as AI makes it ever more difficult to know what is true. We discuss grief, and how our worlds must fork when we think, but do not know, that someone has died. Similarly, when events are unclear—who was responsible for the death of President Kennedy in 1963? Are aliens visiting Earth—we must keep multiple mental universes alive in our heads at once. Correctives to this include meeting people in person, and embracing belief systems that have timeless value. Finally: more wild foxes, this time trying to eat a raccoon carcass. Included: discussion of the evolution of territoriality, parental care, and animal behavior more generally.*****Our sponsors:Masa Chips: Delicious chips made with corn, salt, and beef tallow—nothing else—in loads of great flavors.
