If you've ever hit a breaking point, the kind that forces you to stop pretending you're fine, this episode is medicine. Emily Fletcher sits down with actress and creative force Tati Gabrielle (You, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Kaleidoscope) to explore how pain becomes power when you're willing to meet it head-on. From depression in Atlanta to an identity unraveling to discovering a spiritual practice that rebuilt her from the inside out, Tati shares the raw moments that became her initiation into authenticity. This conversation isn't about bypassing pain, it's about alchemizing it. Turning the collapse into clarity. Turning the wound into wisdom. Turning the struggle into strength. In this episode, we explore: • How to recognize when pain is trying to redirect you • The morning ritual that helped Tati rebuild her life • The difference between numbing pain and transforming it • Why meditation can be a portal for emotional alchemy • The “mind palace” technique she used to rewire her future • How intuition becomes louder when you stop abandoning yourself • What inner child healing actually looks like in daily life • A more empowered way to relate to fate, free will, and resilience Timestamps: • [02:01] When everything broke open — Tati's turning point and the moment pain became her invitation inward. • [06:26] The 7 a.m. ritual that saved her — The simple, self-created practice that pulled her out of depression. • [10:06] Anxiety vs. soul alignment — How she learned to read her body and separate fear from intuition. • [12:18] The “red carpet” vision — The emotional anchor that fueled her transformation and early manifestation wins. • [17:38] The power pivot — How her internal shift created rapid external change (manager, agent, bookings). • [24:38] The body map of intuition — The clearest explanation of where intuition lives vs. where anxiety lives. • [32:49] Life as a video game — A reframe for navigating pain, destiny, and empowerment with play instead of pressure. • [40:57] Mini-resets that regulate the nervous system — The exact micro-practices Tati uses when she spirals. • [48:30] Inside the darkest moments — How she navigates panic, bipolar swings, and the instinct that brings her back. • [53:06] Acting as devotion — How she channels characters as real souls — and why creativity can be healing.

Mountain High: Heidi Kirrmaier. Using my handspun Flowers From My Garden. I decided to put the body on waste yarn and knit the sleeves. Of course color work is different because sleeve circumference is smaller than body. Occasionally breaking yarn to manage color. Finished first sleeve and about a third of the second sleeve. Sheridan Flats Spinning: Purchased 24 oz of 80/15/6 wool/mohair/silk roving in the colorway Kaleidoscope. The owner said to spin at a worsted weight for best results. Mill is Olympic Yarn & Fiber located in Cosmopolis, WA. I've filled two bobbins to date.  Rag Rugs: Wound warp for four rag rugs and started warping loom. Warp is 4" and 6" stripes in royal blue, green, and orange. I've threaded the heddles and reed, and need to attach the warp to the front beam. Then I'll turn my attention to preparing fabric strips. Weaving Studio: It's a work in progress.  Garden Redesign: I've created a project page. Kelly's Projects Accidental Dishtowels are off the loom and washed. Waiting to be hemmed. Ran out of chenille for the three chenille rugs I had warped for. Decided to resley the 8/4 cotton warp to a denser sett (10 epi) and see how it works for a dish towel.  Natural Dyeing Experiments I started spinning the orange CA Red fiber dyed with toyon that had been steeped for 24 hours. Two bobbins are full. I plan to ply from a center pull ball when I'm finished with this spinning.  Chenille Rugs Part 2 Wound the warp and sleyed the reed.  Continuing my Sleeveless Vest by Lone Kjeldsen with handspun from Jazzman, "Judith says perfect fleece."

'BradCast' 11/17/2025: A Kaleidoscope of Corruption by Progressive Voices

Power Quote: I am a teacherTeaser:I've made an intentional effort this year to feature the voices of practitioners. I find the conversations to always be interesting and informative. Some guests are more high energy than others and I want to comment on that before we get into today's interview. I am hesitant to say “all leaders should bring the juice” as people need to be able to be authentic and different leadership styles work in different space and with different people. That said, we also need to recognize:People consistently look to their leaders for hopeThey look to leaders for cues on how to react to diversityThey look to leaders to inform if they should be focused on the good things or the bad thingsIn today's interview, I want you to listen not only to what our guest says, but also how she says it. She is a 30-year veteran teacher and leader and she brings the passion and optimism of a first-year educator. She has an affirming presence that made me feel special even over Zoom.Does every leader ne dot be positive, high energy, and inspiring. No? Maybe? I do know this – when I am in the presence of what I will call “lighthouse” leaders, I am more inspired, more confident, and more optimistic. And that, definitely, is what I want form my leaders. Before we begin, Sponsor Spot 1:I'd like to thank Kaleidoscope Adventures for sponsoring today's show.

Her why is people, and the heart of her work is building connections that help every student belong and thrive.Warmup questions:We always like to start with a celebration. What are you celebrating today?Is there a story that will help listeners understand why you are doing what you do?Questions/Topics/PromptsWe have many listeners who are new APs or new Principals, so I thought it would be good to have someone on who could speak to the benefits of being a member of NASSP. From the 40,000 foot view, why belong to a principal association?NASSP provides many PD opportunities for school leaders. What things have you participated in as a principal and what as an AP?Part of leadership self-care is having a support network, and a key component of that support group is a group of peers. How has your involvement with NASSP helped connect you with other school leaders?2020 was a year like no other and it feels like 2025 has been similar. No bets on what 2026 will look like. It is a hard time at so many levels. I don't think it has ever been more difficult to lead teachers, teach students, or get an education as it is now. Two questions:How do you take care of yourself?How are you helping others take care of themselves?Sponsor Spot 2:I want to thank IXL for sponsoring this podcast…Everyone talks about the power of data-driven instruction.

"It's like girl, China, sex, postmodernism, conceptual romance—a book that sells itself to you over and over and over again as you read it,” she remarks. Published in parallel English/Chinese, the novel was originally written to accompany a piece by Diane Severin Nguyen show at the Rockbund Art Museum in Shanghai. It now circulates as a kind of Reena Spaulings (the novel) for the Exocapitalism era, testing the limits of what fiction now is and what content could be. Based in NYC, Olivia is the author of the Kendall Jenner x Lil Peep fanfic, Island Time (Expat Press, 2022) as well as an associate editor + regular contributor to The Paris Review.

STEVE HATCHER presents some more of his recent TV viewing.First broadcast on FAB RADIO INTERNATIONAL at 19:00 on November 9th 2025.This week we welcome back STEVE HATCHER once again to continue our series of conversations about some of his eclectic television viewing choices.Steve has a life long love of television and – like many archive TV fans - is always adding to the mix that makes up his own personal TV schedule based around some of the archive TV channels, things he finds on online channels, and his own extensive DVD and Blu-Ray collection which means that he is constantly exploring the fascinating and more obscure corners of the television archives and finding new and often forgotten series to talk to us about.Not that he confines himself to the dusty old corners of television that some of us have been known to loiter in. STEVE is also interested in television that is bang up to date and only available to subscribers to some of the streaming channels, and likes to add some of those shows to the mix when they appeal to him.So during this week's show we will discuss the vampiric horrors of WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS a series which has recently drifted off to what we (perhaps inappropriately in this case) called TV HEAVEN, and is now very much in the archives. Keeping with the horror theme, we also discuss the small miracle of the surviving fragments of the late 1960s BBC Horror Anthology LATE NIGHT HORROR which have been saved for posterity thanks to KALEIDOSCOPE.Different kinds of horrors are explored in the historical dramas SHADOW OF THE TOWER, FALL OF EAGLES, and THE STRAUSS FAMILY which we also touch upon in what I think is an entertaining hour spent trawling the more obscure corners of the worlds of Archive television.PLEASE NOTE - For Copyright reasons, musical content sometimes has to be removed for the podcast edition. All the spoken word content remains (mostly) as it was in the broadcast version. Hopefully this won't spoil your enjoyment of the show.

This week Mary B is joined by her dear friends Elizabeth Delgado Black, the Co-founder & CEO of Kaleidoscope Ministries, and Logan Morrison, Kaleidoscope's Community Outreach Coordinator & Trans Ministry Specialist. Being part of one another's found family themselves, Elizabeth and Logan share some of the joy of the family life they've forged together, as well as the lessons learned. In this episode they chat with Mary B about Kaleidescope's upcoming Trans Prayer March which will be held in multiple locations around the country, and stand out as a place of gathering in joy when so often trans folks are forced to gather in grief and mourning. They discuss the importance of centering trans experiences, trans voices, and the needs of the trans community right now. As Elizabeth says, “What good are my needs being met, if my siblings are suffering.”Elizabeth Black (she/her) is the Co-Founder & CEO of Kaleidoscope, an LGBTQ+ mission organization in New York City. An evangelist, theologian, and minister, Elizabeth longs to see Queer people experience social and spiritual justice and liberation in their unique fullness. Originally from Baltimore, MD, she received a Bachelor's degree in Biblical Studies from Washington Bible College before earning a Master's in Contextual Theology from All Nations Christian College in the UK. Her work centers on BIPOC transgender theologies of kinship, alongside writing and speaking on LGBTQ+ mission and evangelism. Elizabeth's scholarship is featured in Christlike Acceptance Across Deep Difference: Constructive Conversations on Sexuality and Gender. Beyond her ministry, Elizabeth is a proud wife and mother of two young boys, living in a household woven together with her husband, children, and two beautiful friends who are chosen family.   Logan Morrison (he/him) serves as the Trans Care Specialist and Community Outreach Coordinator at Kaleidoscope. He holds a Masters of Arts in Organizational Leadership. He pursued collegiate soccer coaching for six years following his education and grew a passion for building mentoring relationships with young people exploring topics of faith, sexuality, gender, and purpose. Logan saw the need of showing the radical love of Jesus to the marginalized, and particularly the Queer and Trans community, and took the step into sharing his own story as a Trans man and using it for God's glory in mission. Logan lives with his chosen family in New York City, including three dogs. Follow Kaleidoscope on social media @kaleidoscope.usa.

To watch the video of this episode, please go to: https://youtu.be/yq1OnGOK2Bc   A powerful story of how mental health stigma, misdiagnosis, and burnout led to a breakthrough in self-awareness, medical understanding, and true peace of mind.   Have you ever felt compelled to prove your worth through relentless ambition, pushing yourself to professional burnout just to mask a deep, internal uncertainty? Have you struggled for years, feeling that something was fundamentally wrong, but believed you had to solve it all by yourself? What happens when you realize the engine driving your success is actually an undiagnosed struggle?   In this powerful episode of Kaleidoscope of Possibilities – Alternative Perspectives on Mental Health, Dr. Adriana Popescu sits down with Jonathan Kemp, creator of the Smart Wisdom technique and author of Finding Peace of Mind, to explore his extraordinary journey from achievement-driven exhaustion to true mental wellness. Jonathan shares how decades of striving for external validation led him to the brink, until a life-changing diagnosis of bipolar disorder type II and dyslexia reframed everything. Together, they unpack the profound impact of mental health stigma, the danger of untreated conditions, and the liberating power of understanding your own mind. Listeners will learn how managing hypomania—not just depression—can be key to long-term stability, why community and social connection are essential for healing, and how AI and mindfulness tools supported Jonathan's transformation. His story is a reminder that mental illness is a medical issue, not a moral failing—and that recovery is possible when we combine awareness, science, and compassion.   In this episode: Recognizing undiagnosed bipolar disorder type II and dyslexia Understanding that mental illness transcends privilege or status Learning how to manage the highs to prevent the crash Embracing community as a vital mental health practice Using AI tools to overcome dyslexia and reduce pressure Launching a mental health awareness walk across the UK & Ireland   Resources mentioned in this episode: Book: Finding Peace of Mind: https://amzn.eu/d/ggWTlvF Jonathan's website: https://www.jonathankemp.com/   About Jonathan: Jonathan Kemp is a mental health advocate, entrepreneur, and the creator of the scientifically validated note-taking technique, Smart Wisdom. Born into privilege as the future third viscount Rodale, he built careers in law enforcement and entrepreneurship before his mental illnesses—Bipolar Disorder Type II, depression, and dyslexia—were diagnosed at age 39. Following a life-changing recovery, he is now on a crusade to de-stigmatize mental health, sharing his experience through his book Finding Peace of Mind and an extensive mental health awareness walk across the UK and Ireland.   “The greatest wealth I have is the knowledge and experience around mental health.” – Jonathan   Would you like to continue this conversation and connect with other people who are interested in exploring these topics?

Samantha Rux from OSF HealthCare joined Wake Up Tri-Counties to discuss National Radiologic Technology Week, infectious season, seasonal affective disorder, and availability of appointments for radiology services at OSF Saint Luke Medical Center in Kewanee. This week marks Rad Tech Week, an annual tribute to the essential work of medical imaging and radiologic technologists. These professionals are key players in the healthcare system, utilizing advanced technologies like X-rays, MRIs, CT scans, and ultrasounds to aid in diagnosing and treating patients. Rad Tech Week not only highlights their technical skills but also their compassion and commitment. Hospitals and imaging centers nationwide are recognizing National Radiologic Technology Week®, spotlighting the vital role radiologic technologists play in modern healthcare. Running from November 2nd through 8th, this annual observance coincides with the anniversary of Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen's discovery of the X-ray in 1895. The chosen theme for 2025, “The Kaleidoscope of Radiologic Technology,” reflects the diversity and unity found within medical imaging and radiation therapy. Facilities are using the occasion to honor professionals who ensure both accurate diagnoses and patient safety, underscoring their pivotal contribution to medical teams and quality care across the country. The field of radiology has seen remarkable advancements since the invention of the X-ray. In 1972, computed tomography, or the CT scan, was developed, quickly followed by the introduction of real-time ultrasound machines in the late 1970s, transforming prenatal care by providing images of babies inside the womb. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) emerged in 1977, offering detailed insights into the body without radiation exposure. Today, 337,000 registered radiologic technologists are employed across the United States. These highly trained professionals operate advanced imaging equipment, aiding physicians in diagnosing a broad range of diseases with expertise certified by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists. Seasonal affective disorder affects many as the days grow shorter, bringing symptoms like low energy and mood changes lasting through the fall and winter. Symptoms typically lift with the return of brighter spring days, though a smaller group experiences SAD during the warmer months instead. Experts recommend not dismissing these changes as typical "winter blues." Treatment options include light therapy, counseling, and medications, offering hope for those facing persistent symptoms. Early recognition and intervention are key, helping people maintain motivation and emotional well-being year-round. Speak with a healthcare professional if you notice these patterns affecting your daily life.

Join us on a musical adventure into the storied past of Africa's Rainbow Nation. In 2016, 20-plus years removed from apartheid, South Africa was a nation deep in transition. And, that was reflected in its music—brimming with enthusiasm and creativity, yet also suffering from the growing pains of a new democracy. On the ground at the 2016 Cape Town International Jazz Festival, we celebrate the country's amazing diversity and discover its hottest local talent: Mafikozolo, the sizzling fashionista Zulu pop duo; Tribute “Birdie” Mboweni, a soulful and socially conscious songbird from the rural north; Gigi Lamayne, a fresh voice from hip-hop's "born-free" generation; Bokani Dyer, a worldly jazz-cat on 88 keys; and Derek Gripper, a Capetonian guitarist virtuoso making us rethink African classical music as a whole. Produced by Sarah Geledi and Simon Rentner APWW #732

Marsha's Projects Elinya by Ambah O'Brien: Finished! I started this shawl in March 2018. I was about ¾ done with the picot bind off when I stopped and I have no idea why. I used Hazel Knits IArtisan Sock in the color way Sassafras and Jorstad Creek Cornwall in the colorway Flamingo. Simple Shawl by Jane Hunter: Finished! Used Michael's CWD in colorway San Francisco Fog. Again, no idea why I stopped. The shawl was finished except for washing and blocking. I started the shawl in March 2018 and finished the knitting in August 2021. Socks: Using Red Heart Heart and Sole in colorway Black Jack. Finished first sock and knitting on leg of the second sock. Mountain High: Heidi Kirrmaier. Using my handspun Flowers From My Garden. About to start the garter stitch edge with measures about 3.25”. Managing color when I change balls. Deer Scarf: Ben and his roommates rescued a concrete deer lawn ornaments. I am making a red scarf for the deer to wear this holiday. Added fringe to beginning edge. I have knit about 8 feet. Sheridan Flats Spinning: Purchased 24 oz of 80/15/6 if wool*/mohair/silk roving in the colorway Kaleidoscope. The owner said to spin at a worsted weight for best results. The mill is Olympic Yarn & Fiber located in Cosmopolis, WA. Weaving Studio: It's a work in progress.  Kelly's Projects Moose Hat for Moose It was a fun, one week project that I started on his birthday and finished a week later. The pattern would also make a good pillow. Cathy suggested to decrease faster than the pattern calls for so the hat wouldn't be pointed. I used that suggestion and got a traditional beanie/toque shape. Natural Dyeing Experiments  Elderberry leaves gave me a very light yellowy tan. I was hoping for green. I may have heated the dye pot too quickly. I simmered and then soaked a dyepot of walnut shells and hulls for about a week and then dyed with it. Heating and cooling the pot twice over the course of a day. Then I left the wool in to soak for a couple days. I got a darker brown than with the leaves, but not as dark as I thought I would get. Sort of a medium brown. Next up is loquat leaves.  Spirit Yarn Hat #7 is finished using mostly a white skein of acrylic DK. A small amount of striping with a purple leaning brown and a pink. Hat #8 is at the crown. It is a bright pink.  Wound the warp and dressed the loom for the chenille rug project. This project was inspired by Kelli who made one for her travel van. Instructions are in Summer 2024 Handwoven.  Swatched with handspun from Jazzman, “Judith says perfect fleece.” Haven't decided on the vest I'll make, but I've done a search with my gauge to find the patterns that might work.

In this episode 187 of the Disruption Now Podcast, we sit down with Benjamin Ko, the CEO of Kaleidoscope Innovation, a firm leading the way in human-centered design and engineering — especially in healthcare. From developing wearable technologies for spinal cord injury patients to crafting surgical tools built around human ergonomics, Ben and his team are proving that empathy is a competitive advantage in the age of AI.We dive into the central question: If AI can optimize everything, where do we still matter? Ben argues that empathy isn't just a soft skill — it's a design superpower. He discusses how Kaleidoscope's cross-functional teams of designers, engineers, and researchers bridge the gap between physical and digital worlds, why 95% of AI projects fail due to lack of human context, and how clarity of thought and ethical design can shape a better, more responsible tech future.If you're a founder, product designer, healthcare innovator, engineer, or policymaker interested in building smarter systems with deeper purpose — this episode is for you.

Let's begin by looking backwards. On Sept. 16, Mara and I released an episode on three things you should be doing now to care for yourself. Mara took the lead on that one as we dove into designing your morning, clarifying your identity and mission, and building a sustainable habit of creating you time. As an aside, I'm still enamored with the idea of creating a “third space” in which you can be yourself, without trying to be something for everyone else, and a shoutout to listener and daily email reader Penny Connor for that concept.Last week I did an episode on transitioning from work to home in ways that will make it easier to leave school at school. The three key components were investing time in reflection before walking out of school, listening to personal things (like music or audio books) on your commute home, and having specific practices when you walk in the door to home that signal your body to shift into home mode.I acknowledged then that many of you do have duties that require you to work from home and that we would dive into that today, but before we go there…Sponsor Spot 1:I'd like to thank Kaleidoscope Adventures for sponsoring today's show.

This can happen for three primary reasons:You have a duty that specifically requires you to work from homeThere is a real emergencyYour work is your life (the issues you work on are the issues you live with)You view yourself as a martyrLet's look at some general habits for when you MUST work from home and then address each of the other circumstances.Limit who can contact you at home. If you have a work phone, shut it down and allow your boss/important person to reach you via your home phone. Or program your phone to only allow certain people to reach you at certain times (Hint: iPhone's Short Cuts feature is super helpful). Create (and enforce) strict boundaries about what duties are and are not off-limits for being interrupted at home and communicate those to people. If you are in charge of getting subs, control how people reach you and when you will check email. You can also do something like add all your teachers to your favorites and set your email to put all messages from favorites into a special folder. This way, when you open your computer to check email, you only need to look at the favorites folder so you aren't getting sucked into other things. The technology has made it harder to be away from work, but we can also use it to flip the script. Designate a location you go to when you must do work at home, whether that is phone calls, email, or something else. Maintaining physical separation from your normal living areas when you are working is critical! Bonus: make your home workspace uncomfortable so you won't be tempted to spend extra time there. Closet anyone?

From Madison Ave to Hollywood: The Birth of a Trailer Empire

To watch the video of this podcast, please go to: https://youtu.be/HnKzDLlBV3g?si=vT3xfQZDR9z5Unez   Have you ever felt like you're stuck in a loop of managing symptoms, constantly battling anxiety or chronic pain without ever getting to the root of the problem? Have you been told to "get over" your past, only to feel like your body holds a different story?   In this episode of Kaleidoscope of Possibilities, Dr. Adriana Popescu explores why traditional talk therapy and a "mindset-only" approach often fall short in healing trauma. She's joined by Carla Shohet, a psychologist with 25 years of experience, and together they dive into the crucial shift from cognitive-based talk therapy to body-based somatic practices for healing trauma. Carla shares her personal journey of discovering she was carrying unaddressed trauma from narcissistic abuse, and how her professional training in psychology hadn't prepared her to deal with the physiological imprint of trauma. This realization led her to develop her integrative approach, which focuses on reconnecting with the body and restoring nervous system health. This episode is a must-listen for anyone feeling stuck on their healing path and seeking a new, more profound way forward.   In this episode: Carla's road to becoming an integrative trauma psychologist, nervous system health practitioner, and creator of the THANARA Healing Program and the NTN Pathway method. Trauma lives in the body, not just the mind, and you can't truly separate psychology from physiology. The conventional approach of talk therapy for trauma can sometimes leave individuals feeling more traumatized because it doesn't address the energy held in the body. The education about the nervous system as our "operating system" should be taught from a young age because it is foundational to both mental and physical well-being. Chronic stress and unprocessed trauma can make you physically ill, leading to a "worn-out nervous system" and conditions like IBS, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, and other chronic pain. The "NTN Pathway" stands for "Now, Then, Next" and is Carla's sequenced model for healing, which prioritizes building nervous system capacity before engaging in trauma therapies. Trauma-informed practices are crucial, as powerful healing modalities like yoga, meditation, and even EMDR can be retraumatizing if done without an understanding of the nervous system and a client's capacity.   Resources mentioned in this episode: Carla's Website: https://carlashohet.com/ Carla's Program: THANARA Healing Program: https://carlashohet.com/thanara-waitlist Carla's Podcast: Time to Unlearn: https://timetounlearnpodcast.com/ Healing Modalities: IFS, Somatic Experiencing, Feldenkrais, Brainspotting, Hypnotherapy, TRE (Trauma Release Exercises), EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Polyvagal Theory Mentioned Experts: Dan Siegel, Deb Dana   About Carla: Carla Shohet is an Integrative Trauma Psychologist, nervous system health practitioner, and the creator of the THANARA healing program and the NTN Pathway Method. With a 25-year background in psychology and somatic therapy, Carla helps individuals and professionals heal from complex trauma, chronic pain, and narcissistic abuse by reconnecting to safety in the body and restoring nervous system health. Her work blends cutting-edge neuroscience with deeply compassionate, body-based practices, drawing from modalities like IFS, Somatic Experiencing, Feldenkrais, Brainspotting, Hypnotherapy, and more. Carla also hosts the podcast Time to Unlearn, where she shares education, hope, and healing with a global audience.   “Trauma can be something really small... And it can be an accumulation of chronic stress through life... And that literally burns the engine.” – Carla   Would you like to continue this conversation and connect with other people who are interested in exploring these topics?

As Leslie Witt took to the stage Sept. 3 to deliver the keynote at Kaleidoscope, 8am's inaugural customer conference, it was the culmination of a whirlwind summer. It had been just four months since she had joined the company formerly known as AffiniPay as chief product officer, responsible for leading product transformation and strategy for established legal tech brands LawPay, MyCase, CASEpeer and Docketwise. In the intervening 16 weeks, the company had undergone a major rebrand and finalized details of its first major conference. Now, two weeks after the rebrand and as the conference got underway, Witt stood before the keynote audience detailing the company's newest product initiatives, including its upcoming launch of its generative AI-driven 8AM IQ.  Not long after Witt wrapped up her keynote, LawNext host Bob Ambrogi sat down with her live for this extended conversation. They spoke at the Kaleidoscope venue in Austin in a recording studio provided by 8am, where they discussed her background and career, her reasons for joining 8am, and the product announcements she had made earlier that day. Those announcements included the beta launch of an AI “Chat with Cases” feature that allows lawyers to ask questions of and search their case files, the integration of three core 8am products — LawPay, MyCase and SmartSpend — on a single technology platform, and more.  Before joining 8am in May, Witt had more than two decades of experience in leading product teams. Most recently, she had served as the chief product and design officer at the mental health and wellness technology company Headspace. She previously held senior positions at Intuit, where she led global design, research and innovation initiatives focused on small businesses.  Thank You To Our Sponsors This episode of LawNext is generously made possible by our sponsors.
