What if the most important skill of our moment isn't knowing more, but knowing what's actually worth caring about?Mark Manson is the bestselling author of The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck and Everything Is F*cked, with three #1 New York Times bestsellers and tens of millions of readers around the world. The last time Mark joined Finding Mastery was in 2020, mid-COVID, when uncertainty was loud and the world felt strange. Five years on, the world is no less strange... it's just strange differently. The information ecosystem has fractured. Trust is harder to find. And the same noise we worried about five years ago has become the air we all breathe.In this conversation with Dr. Michael Gervais, Mark walks through the three principles he's organized his life and work around: radical ownership, radical honesty, and radical acceptance. He explains why ownership is the foundation under everything, because nothing else really works until you take it. He explains why his bar for honesty is anything "relevant or pertinent to somebody's wellbeing." And he talks about why radical acceptance, the Buddhist part of him, is what allows agency without collapse.The conversation moves into territory both timely and timeless. Mark and Mike dig into why the decline of religion has helped the self-help industry explode, why a spiritual framework remains one of the strongest known protective factors for mental health, and how the comparison machinery in our brains, designed for a tribe of thirty, now buckles under the weight of three hundred million people on Instagram.Mark also opens up about Purpose, the AI app he's built, and what he learned designing it to be intentionally disagreeable. He explains why a yes-man entourage, whether it's people around a star athlete or an AI that agrees with everything you say, quietly untethers people from reality. And he shares the stoic-style practice he uses to stay honest with himself: imagining what would be true if he were the problem, then holding that thought lightly enough to set it back down.By the end, Mark and Mike land on what feels like the heart of the episode... You can be perfect as you are, and you can always be better. Both can be true.In this conversation, we explore:Why sincerity has become the most valuable signal in a fractured information landscapeThe three principles Mark uses to navigate uncertainty: radical ownership, radical honesty, and radical acceptanceHow our ancient comparison brain breaks under the weight of social media at scaleWhy a spiritual framework remains one of the strongest known protective factors for mental healthThe premortem practice that helps Mark stay honest with himself, and why most of us avoid itWhy an AI (or a person) that agrees with everything you say is a slow-motion mental health riskHow to use AI as a thought partner without letting it do your thinking for youThe question that keeps Mark up at night, and might be worth asking yourselfIf you've ever felt like the noise is winning, or like you've lost the thread on what's worth caring about, this conversation offers a sturdier place to stand.Links & ResourcesThis episode is brought to you in part by our partner, Sunlighten, the company that has pioneered infrared sauna technology.

Long wars evolve and change, sometimes due to innovation and weapons other times due to politics and personalities — but in all cases there is a sharp change of context: the realities in which the war started cease to apply, and the new ones dictate events. The war in Ukraine has now reached this situation.While Russia claims to still be fighting the same war for the same reasons, it is poorer, weaker, with a staggering amount of casualties and a population increasingly disgruntled. Conversely, while the people of Ukraine are tired of war and of Russia's malicious bombing of civilian targets, it remains united in its opposition to Russia's claims upon its lands and people, and ever more inventive in its capabilities and international outreach.To better understand these shifting realities and the position of Ukraine Ilana Bet-El is joined by Hanna Shelest, Director of Security Studies at Foreign Policy Council Ukrainian Prism, and Yuliia Shaipova, Affiliated Expert at Ukrainian Prism. A deep and flowing conversation with many important insights!This episode was recorded on 19 May 2026ChaptersWhat changed in the battlefield dynamics?Evolutions inside Ukraine and current political landscapeThe impact of the Middle-East war on UkrainePerceptions of EU accession and future aspirationsHow could the negotiations progress?MentionsUkrainian PrismRussian lossesTimothy Garton Ash, Homelands: A Personal History of EuropeHanna's previous Women Leaders episode (November 2025)FollowHanna Shelest LinkedInYuliia Shaipova LinkedInIlana Bet-ElInstagram @women_leaders_podcastListen to this episode on our YouTube channelOur partner European Leadership Network Twitter LinkedIn Facebook websiteCreditsProduction: Florence FerrandoMusic: Let Good Times Roll, RA from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/ra/let-good-times-rollLicense code: ZXIIIJUU2ISPZIJTContribute to the conversation with a comment & a 5-⭐️Reach us on our Instagram and follow for updates @women_leaders_podcastWatch now our episode on Youtube Hosted on Acast.

Why are there over 400 phase three oncology programs but only one in dialysis? John Butler, who has spent over 30 years in the kidney disease space, breaks down the regulatory and reimbursement dynamics that have created a surge of innovation in rare kidney diseases while leaving dialysis patients behind, and what it would take to change that.John discusses how FDA clarity on endpoints transformed the rare kidney disease investment landscape, why the dialysis bundle makes innovation functionally impossible for providers, and how the Kidney Care Access Protection Act could be the first meaningful step toward a sustainable path for new dialysis therapies.A few of John's key takeaways:Regulatory clarity is the single biggest driver of rare kidney disease investment — FDA's work with industry to define approvable endpoints changed the entire landscapeThe dialysis bundle is structurally hostile to innovation — at $280 per session for all services, supplies, and drugs, there's no room for new therapiesThe Corsuva story is a cautionary tale — a good product at a reasonable price failed because the payment mechanism didn't workK-CAPA could change the calculus by extending the TDAPA window to three years and shifting to pay-per-use reimbursementInvestors are willing to take clinical risk, but they need a clear path to both approval and paymentFDA and CMS are generally better when they don't try to coordinate — FDA should focus on science and benefit-risk, not system costThe science is moving upstream — SGLT-2s, GLP-1s, porcine kidney transplants, and wearable kidneys all point toward a future with fewer patients on dialysisAbout John ButlerJohn Butler is President and CEO of Akebia Therapeutics, where he has led the company for over 12 years. He has worked in kidney disease since 1991, with roles at Amgen and 13 years at Genzyme leading the renal and rare disease businesses. John chaired the American Kidney Fund and Kidney Care Partners, and recently testified before the House Ways & Means health subcommittee on dialysis innovation and reimbursement reform. He holds an MBA from Baruch College's Zicklin School of Business and a BA in Chemistry from Manhattan University.About The FDA GroupThe FDA Group helps life science organizations rapidly access the industry's best consultants, contractors, and candidates.

What happens when AI-generated video becomes indistinguishable from reality — and it's cheaper than lunch?This week, the AI race took a dramatic turn. China didn't just catch up — in some areas, it leaped ahead. And with video models that generate flawless visuals and synchronized audio in real time, we've entered a new era where “seeing is believing” no longer applies.For business leaders, this isn't just geopolitical theater. It's a strategic inflection point. From AI-generated fraud and deepfake manipulation to workforce burnout driven by productivity acceleration, the rules of competition — and trust — are changing faster than most organizations can process.In this episode, we break down what China's AI surge really means, why deepfake technology is now a board-level issue, and how AI may be making your top performers more productive… and more exhausted.In this session, you'll discover:Why China's latest AI releases signal a shift in the global AI power balanceWhat makes ByteDance's new video model fundamentally different from U.S. competitorsHow AI-generated video with synchronized audio changes the fraud landscapeThe growing legal and regulatory backlash from Hollywood and governmentsWhy “Deepfake-as-a-Service” is becoming a criminal business modelThe real financial cost of AI-enabled fraud — and why it's acceleratingMicrosoft's legal action against synthetic abuse networksHow governments are attempting (and struggling) to regulate synthetic mediaWhy AI may increase burnout instead of reducing workloadThe “productivity treadmill” effect inside AI-enabled organizationsHow AI agents are transforming coding, databases, and knowledge workWhy only a tiny percentage of employees are true AI power usersWhat business leaders must do now to prepare for the next waveAbout Leveraging AI The Ultimate AI Course for Business People: https://multiplai.ai/ai-course/ YouTube Full Episodes: https://www.youtube.com/@Multiplai_AI/ Connect with Isar Meitis: https://www.linkedin.com/in/isarmeitis/ Join our Live Sessions, AI Hangouts and newsletter: https://services.multiplai.ai/events If you've enjoyed or benefited from some of the insights of this episode, leave us a five-star review on your favorite podcast platform, and let us know what you learned, found helpful, or liked most about this show!

PR isn't a “nice to have” in franchising, it's a credibility engine.Today we are chatting with Sherri Fishman, founder of Fishman Public Relations, for a conversation about how public relations has shaped franchise growth for more than three decades and why its impact is even more critical today.Sherri takes us back to 1991, when she launched her firm after years working in franchise public relations, a path that would go on to shape how franchise brands tell their stories. Since then, she's worked alongside emerging concepts and some of the most recognized franchise brands in the country, served in multiple leadership roles within the International Franchise Association, and, in 2023, was honored with the prestigious Bonnie Levine Award for her mentorship, leadership, and lasting impact on franchising. Throughout our conversation, she shares hard-earned lessons on leadership, risk, earned media, and why empathy has always been central to her approach.We also dig into how PR has evolved from traditional media pitching to a more integrated mix of earned media, content, social visibility, and local storytelling. Sherri explains why franchisees are often a brand's strongest ambassadors, how local PR programs like grand openings and community engagement fuel both unit-level success and franchise development, and why leaders who treat PR as a short-term tactic often miss its real value.So whether you're launching a franchise, supporting franchisees in local markets, or rethinking how your brand builds trust at scale, this episode offers real insight into how PR actually works inside franchising.

If your marketing feels heavier, less effective, or more exhausting than it used to — you're not imagining it.In this episode of Run Your Damn Business, we talk about why so many capable small business owners feel stuck right now, even though they're working harder and doing “all the right things.” This isn't about motivation or mindset — it's about real shifts in the online market that most business advice hasn't caught up with.I break down what actually changed over the last few years, why strategies that once worked stopped converting, and how small business owners — especially women 40+ — were quietly set up to burn out by content-heavy, visibility-first models.In this episode, we talk about:Why marketing feels harder now than it did a few years agoHow saturation and loss of trust changed the online landscapeThe shift from social media as a place to learn to a place to performWhy visibility alone no longer creates demandHow content-heavy strategies disproportionately burn out small business ownersThe difference between being seen and being trustedWhat to focus on first when revenue feels unsteadyThis episode is about removing self-blame and restoring clarity. The problem isn't your experience, your work ethic, or your age — the market changed, and it requires a smarter approach.If you've been feeling frustrated, tired, or unsure why your marketing isn't working the way it used to, this conversation will help you understand what's actually happening — and where to focus instead.Hit play, take what you need, and then go run your damn business.MORE FROM ME: Follow me on Instagram → @janditchfield.co RATE, REVIEW, & FOLLOW ON APPPLE PODCASTS "Jan put words to what I've been feeling about my business for years and then gave me the strategies to move it forward."

With talk of embargoes and “Global Tariff Day,” the administration is pushing to bring manufacturing back to the U.S., even if it means higher costs and economic disruption.Free trade is done. A 10–15% global base tariff is likely. The U.S. is leaning hard into mercantilism, aiming to favor domestic production. However, with so many moving parts and unclear rules, companies are frozen. All eyes are on May 3rd—when decisions could drop that change everything overnight.For supply chain leaders, the old low-cost country strategy is falling apart. China is expensive and complicated. Tariffs make Mexico uncertain. Other regions come with their own risks. The only reliable answer? Make it in America. But that brings a new set of problems.To support the shift, the administration plans to add one million new manufacturing apprentices annually. If it happens, it could help—but it's not here yet. In the meantime, companies have to be strategic. That means filling up U.S. plants, identifying where capacity exists, and moving production where it makes sense.Financial risk is rising fast. With one in five suppliers predicted to face distress, Ambrose urges leaders to look closely at warning signs—and to start real conversations. The solution is clear: Set up a trade and tariff war room, staff it with your best people, and build real-time models to stay ahead of disruption.The companies that survive this won't be the ones cutting costs. They'll be the ones investing—in people, systems, and long-term strategy. Ambrose makes the contrast clear: best-in-class companies are staying ahead, while poor performers are cutting themselves into a corner.If the industry wants to rebuild, it has to change how it operates. That means better communication between OEMs and suppliers, a shared commitment to stability, and a willingness to collaborate in ways the industry hasn't seen in decades.Because in the end, it's simple: you can't build cars without parts. And you can't solve this alone.Themes discussed in this episode:The unpredictability and chaos of today's global tariff landscapeThe financial collapse looming over suppliers that fail to adapt to new trade rulesThe shift from global trade to modern-day mercantilism in U.S. policyWhy best-in-class companies invest in people, process, and continuous upgradesThe push to rebuild U.S. manufacturing with apprenticeships and skilled laborWhy building a trade and tariff war room is now mission-criticalThe urgent need for cross-functional collaboration to survive tariff-driven disruptionFeatured on this episode: Name: Ambrose ConroyTitle: Founder and CEO of Seraph ConsultingAbout: Ambrose is the Founder and CEO of Seraph Consulting.

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Bruce La Fetra discuss:The importance of understanding your best clientsMarketing strategy for law firms in a competitive landscapeThe difference between experts and advisorsThe power of client testimonials and validation Key Takeaways:The best clients are not only more profitable but also easier to work with, as they buy faster, pay more, and create fewer headaches, making them essential for long-term business growth.Law firm marketing should shift from highlighting expertise to showcasing the real-world impact of legal services, such as improving business operations, reducing risks, or increasing revenue.Client testimonials are most effective when they emphasize specific, measurable outcomes—like increased working capital or faster contract execution—rather than vague endorsements.A law firm's messaging, from its website to client conversations, should be strategically crafted to reflect what its best clients truly value, ensuring better alignment and stronger relationships. "So, a lot of times, people don't know why their firm is successful. They know they have clients that they love working with, and those clients would go nowhere else, but they don't know why." —  Bruce La Fetra Got a challenge growing your law practice?
