Is Time Really Linear? with Julia Mossbridge Julia Mossbridge, PhD, is a cognitive neuroscientist focused on understanding and training exceptional human performance including psi effects such as precognition, technological intuition, human-AI teaming, time, and accessing unconditional love. She is the co-founder and Board Chair of TILT: The Institute for Love and Time, Senior Distinguished Fellow in Human Potential at the Center for the Future of AI, Mind, and Society at Florida Atlantic University, Affiliate Professor in the Department of Biophysics and Physics at University of San Diego, Senior Data+Intuition Consultant at Tangible IQ, a member of the Alfred Lee Loomis Innovation Council at the Stimson Center, and the founder of Mossbridge Institute. Julia is author and coauthor of numerous books and scientific articles, including Transcendent Mind: Rethinking the Science of Consciousness with Imants Baruss; The Calling: A 12-Week Science-Based Program to Discover, Energize, and Engage Your Soul’s Work; The Premonition Code: The Science of Precognition, How Sensing the Future Can Change Your Life Paperback; and Have a Nice Disclosure. Her website is juliamossbridge.com Julia describes her research that explores the relationship between photons and time, “Replication and Characterization of the Causally Ambiguous Duration-Sorting (CADS) Effect”, that builds on the double-slit experiment. Through her exploration of bosonic particles, consciousness, and the past, present, and future, she suggests that the nature of time may be more like a braid than linear. By equating the informational substrate of the universe, that connects everything, with unconditional love, she demonstrates a connection of science and spirituality. 00:00:00 Introduction 00:03:42 Causally ambiguous research 00:05:08 The double-slit experiment and interference pattern 00:13:08 Collapsing the wave function 00:15:50 Presentiment or retrocausality 00:20:31 Time and space 00:29:36 Consciousness and universal love 00:34:50 The physics of love 00:50:05 Photons and mind-like particles 00:54:04 The past and future are in the present. 00:57:45 Conclusion New Thinking Allowed CoHost, Emmy Vadnais, OTR/L, is a licensed occupational therapist, intuitive healer and coach, and spiritual guide based in St. Paul, Minnesota.

Astronomers using the 8.1 m Gemini South Telescope in Chile were excited by the fact that 467P (LINEAR-Grauer)'s Centaur like orbit had been changed as the nucleus emitted rocket like bursts of gases as it was warmed by the Sun. Inert inactive asteroids orbit the Sun following the law of gravity whereas active asteroids can emit little rocket like bursts of gas which can change their path about the Sun in interesting ways. It is important to study objects like 467P (LINEAR-Grauer) to make sure their path about the Sun doesn't change to make them a threat to our home planet.
What does it mean for audio gear to be “technically correct,” and why should listeners care? In the fourth-season finale of the SoundStage! Audiophile Podcast, host Jorden Guth and producer Dennis Burger are joined by John Siau, vice president of Benchmark Media Systems. He discusses his background in the broadcast industry and how that experience shaped Benchmark's engineering-driven approach to audio design. The conversation explores the evolution of DAC technology, the relationship between hi-fi and professional audio, and the ongoing balance between listening impressions and objective measurements. Siau also explains why he believes accurate measurements ultimately lead to better musical performance and addresses common misconceptions about digital audio. The episode concludes with a look at Benchmark's commitment to designing and manufacturing its products in the United States, and why the Syracuse, New York–based company sees domestic production as both a practical and philosophical choice.

What if your computer didn't need a screen in front of you to get work done? That's the shift Ben Guo, co-founder of Zo, is building toward, and this conversation gets into the specifics of what that actually looks like day to day.In this episode of Supra Insider, Marc Baselga and Ben Erez sit down with Ben Guo to explore Zo: a personal cloud computer with built-in AI agents, file storage, scheduled tasks, and the ability to receive commands over text or email. Together, they unpack how Zo differs from the OpenClaw movement and why Ben thinks the personal cloud becomes a device category everyone eventually owns.The conversation goes deep on how the Zo team actually builds software: writing AI-generated markdown plans before touching any code, reviewing those plans as GitHub PRs, and largely abandoning the traditional to-do backlog in favor of just prompting something and letting it run. They also get into the real overhead that comes with this new way of working, including context management, delegation judgment, and figuring out what belongs where.All episodes of the podcast are also available on Spotify, Apple and YouTube.New to the pod?

Is the human skeleton really linear — or is that a fundamental misunderstanding of anatomy?In this episode, Joanne responds to a detailed YouTube comment that raises important questions about fascia, skeletal organisation, and so-called “linear” underlying structure of the bones. What follows is not a disagreement of style, but a clear challenge to biological inaccuracies that are commonly repeated in movement and manual therapy circles.Are bones straight?Is working to soften the tissue an advantage to everyone?And does it always automatically restore function?Drawing on extensive fascia research, laboratory experience, embryology and lived movement experience, Joanne unpacks why the idea of a linear skeleton collapses under scrutiny and why misunderstanding this matters for anyone involved a movement or manual practice, therapy and teaching.This is a grounded exploration of anatomy, not a metaphor or a promotion. A reminder that living bodies are non-linear, adaptive, self-organising and unique. And that humans are not standardised mechanical frames waiting to be corrected.If you care about fascia science, skeletal structure, functional anatomy and embodied awareness, this conversation will sharpen your thinking. It will also, no doubt, invite more questions - which are always welcome.SIGN UP TO THE JOANNE AVISON NEWSLETTER Simply scroll down to ‘Join Our Collective' and pop in your details.

If you ask Megan Holly, we were taught that life moves in a straight line, but in hindsight, it really doesn't. In this episode of the Magic Made Podcast, Megan unpacks the pressure of “linear growth” and the exhaustion that comes from believing you should always be improving, producing, or pushing forward.This is a permission-slip episode for anyone who feels behind, stuck, or like their progress should look like a clean staircase instead of a messy, beautiful human rhythm. Megan talks hustle culture, burnout signs (especially when rest makes you feel “unworthy”), and why ease is not laziness, it's wisdom.You'll explore how growth actually works: in cycles, seasons, and spirals. And how self-trust (not self-criticism) is the bridge that helps you move forward without crushing yourself in the process.In this episode, we talk about:Why “constant forward progress” is exhaustingHow hustle culture messes with your worthThe truth: growth ebbs, flows, and circles backWhy stillness and different approaches are not stagnationReplacing urgency with ease (especially for recovering perfectionists)Building self-trust so your goals feel lighterA question to ground you: Where are you rushing yourself unnecessarily?✨ Reflection prompt:What brings you ease, and how can you do more of it on purpose?If you've spotted any “magic” lately, sunbeams, rainbows, light through the trees, tag Megan and share it.

There's a quiet moment after you become a mum where you realise your life will never look the same again and neither will your career. In this Motherkind Moment, Zoe Blaskey is joined by Helen Tupper and Sarah Ellis, co-founders of Squiggly Careers, bestselling authors, and two of the UK's leading voices on modern careers, learning and development. Together, they explore the reality so many mothers quietly hold: how becoming a parent doesn't switch off your drive – but it does force you to make sense of it. They talk about the idea of a squiggly career, and why motherhood often accelerates that squiggle. There's a clear before and after when you become a mum, and suddenly your life, priorities and decisions can't look the same as they did before. But that doesn't mean you stop wanting to grow, achieve, or do meaningful work. This Moment speaks directly to the judgment many working mothers experience – the head tilt, the comments, the unspoken assumptions about what you should want after having children. Zoe, Helen and Sarah talk honestly about returning to work by choice, feeling judged for it, and learning to make intentional decisions that work for you, even when they look different to everyone else's. At the heart of the conversation is the power of values, not as a buzzword, but as a practical filter for navigating motherhood, work and identity. When you know what truly drives you, you can make choices with more confidence and less guilt, even in a season that's noisy, exhausting and full of comparison. This Moment is a reminder that there is no one right way to do motherhood or ambition, only what works for you. In this Moment, they explore: Why motherhood often makes careers feel more “squiggly” How ambition can stay alive after becoming a mother Using values to make confident, intentional decisions If you've ever felt judged for what you want after having children or are unsure how to honour both your ambition and your family, this Moment is for you.

If you've been here for years or you're only a handful of episodes in... this one is for you. After recently stepping back into the guest seat on another podcast, I realized it had been a while since I reintroduced herself here on The Found Podcast. So today, I'm doing just that. But not with a résumé. Not with a tidy bio. With the real story. In this episode, I walk through the winding, nonlinear path from waitress to teacher, stay-at-home mom to accidental entrepreneur, agency owner to Managing Director of The Restoration Project. I share the inflection points, the burnout, the public pivots, and the deeply personal realizations that reshaped my definition of success. More than anything, this episode is an invitation: You are more than your job title. Your path doesn't have to make sense to anyone else. And sometimes your passion lives from 5–9, not 9–5... and that's beautiful. Whether you're founding a business, founding a cause, founding a family, or simply finding yourself, this episode is a reminder that there is no blueprint: only growth, reflection, and courage to evolve. What You'll Hear in This Episode Why I believe we should introduce ourselves by who we are, not just what we do The personality assessments that shaped my self-understanding (Enneagram 3, Learner strength, Human Design Manifester) Lessons from early jobs — including manufacturing floors and Applebee's shifts The rise (and unraveling) of Molly Knuth Media The breaking point that forced me to ask: What do I really want? Why leadership development — not marketing — became my deeper calling How my role at The Restoration Project evolved into Managing Director The truth about nonlinear paths and public pivots Why you don't need to monetize your passion for it to matter Resources & Links The Restoration Project – Leadership development resources, courses, and weekly momentum emails Founder's Field Notes – Molly's monthly email for female founders Connect with Molly on Instagram, LinkedIn, or Facebook @mollyknuth
Hello Spirit Talkers
From Content Overload to Curated Influence: The Future of ConnectionOverviewIn this transformative episode, Julie Riga sits down with Kyle Hudson, founder and CEO of Stacklist, to explore how curation, not content creation, is becoming the future of trust and influence in an AI-driven world. Kyle shares his journey from building digital solutions for Google, Disney, and Coca-Cola to creating a platform that helps service professionals own their client relationships. Together, they dive into the ingredients for success in today's rapidly evolving landscape, discussing tech stack management, experimental mindsets, and becoming omnipotential leaders.From Content Overload to Curated Influence: The Future of ConnectionGuest: Kyle Hudson, Founder & CEO of StacklistHost: Julie RigaGuest BackgroundKyle Hudson is the founder and CEO of Stacklist, The Social Curation Network, helping service professionals turn local knowledge into shareable, AI-discoverable hubs. With a proven track record building digital solutions for brands like Google, Disney, and Coca-Cola, Kyle now focuses on empowering experts to own their client relationships rather than renting attention from social media platforms. Kyle is a member of the "Nintendo generation" (born 1979), shaped by growing up with technology as native rather than novel. His philosophy centers on omnipotential: the belief that you have the potential to be many things, not just one specialist.Fun Fact: Kyle is a burger connoisseur who dips his fries in mustard!Key Topics DiscussedThe Ingredients for Success:Curiosity & Experimental Mindset - Being open to trying new tools without fear of failure, treating business as one big lab experiment, and learning by doing rather than waiting for perfection.Fluidity & Adaptability - Avoiding vendor lock-in, being willing to scrap established systems for better solutions, and building the "Swiss Army Knife" skillset instead of narrow specialization.Omnipotential Leadership - Embracing multiple roles as an entrepreneur, understanding you're not defined by one label, and how generalists with AI partners become superhuman.Tech Stack Management: The $2000/month subscription problem, using Slack and Zoom as foundations, Linear as an elegant alternative to Jira, Claude Code for financial projections and custom agents. Strategy: Lock into solutions, not vendors.The Stacklist Philosophy: Curation over content creation, transforming personal expertise into discoverable resources, helping professionals own relationships instead of depending on algorithms. Everyone is known for something valuable.Memorable Quotes"Omnipotential is this idea that you are not X, you have the potential to be X, Y, Z, and A, B, C.""I just jump off the cliff, and as I'm falling, I'm learning. That's how I do it.""You only have to worry about AI taking your job if you're standing still. But if you're diving into it, you're learning skills you can teach others."Key InsightsKyle identifies as part of the "Nintendo generation," those who grew up with technology as native rather than novel, creating a fundamental difference in how leaders approach innovation. The conversation validates entrepreneurs who didn't fit the corporate mold. In the AI era, the valuable entrepreneur is the curious generalist who can leverage AI to solve novel problems.Action StepsAudit your tech stack and eliminate 70%Try one new AI tool this weekCreate your stack on Stacklist with your favorite topicsSchedule experimentation timeConnect: stacklist.app/kyle Connect: Stay On Course with Julie RigaEssential listening for entrepreneurs who want to thrive in an AI-driven future.#Leadership #Innovation #AI #Entrepreneurship #PersonalGrowth

Have you ever thought you finally met the right one—only to discover, painfully, that everything he said was a lie? In this powerful and deeply personal episode, Leslie Vernick sits down with media expert and speaker Beverly Hallberg to unpack her harrowing journey through a deceptive and destructive marriage. From whirlwind courtship to abuse behind closed doors, Beverly opens up about the spiritual confusion, grief, and courage it took to get free—and the God who never left her. This is an episode every woman navigating confusing relationship dynamics needs to hear. Key Takeaways “He Wasn't Who He Said He Was”: The Power of Deception Beverly shares how her abuser cloaked himself in faith, family values, and kindness—appearing to be the ideal match. But soon after the wedding, the mask dropped. She explains how yellow flags were hidden in grief, charm, and shared spiritual language, making discernment incredibly difficult. → You're not foolish if you didn't see it. These relationships are built on intentional deceit. When Abuse is Emotional, Mental, and Spiritual From subtle sabotage to explosive rage and spiritual manipulation, Beverly's marriage wasn't just disappointing—it was destructive. She bravely recounts the patterns of control, harm, and gaslighting that unraveled her emotionally and physically. → Abuse is not just about bruises. It's about patterns that diminish, devalue, and destroy. God Doesn't Value Marriage Over Safety Wrestling with Scripture and shame, Beverly found clarity in truth: God cares more about the people in the marriage than preserving the institution at all costs. Biblical wisdom and wise counsel helped her see that staying would harm not just her—but enable his sin. → God does not call you to stay in harm's way to keep a vow someone else already broke. Healing Isn't Linear—but It's Real Beverly shares her long road back to emotional and spiritual wholeness. From losing her in-laws to enduring an ectopic pregnancy alone, her healing came through community, Scripture, and reclaiming her voice. → You can heal. It takes time, safe people, and honesty—but freedom is possible. To the Woman Who Feels Stuck: You Are Not Alone Speaking directly to women who may not have the resources or support Beverly did, she offers wisdom on safety planning, building a support system, and why even one safe parent can make all the difference for children. → The first step is to tell someone. God will meet you as you take that step. Personal Invitation If Beverly's story hit close to home, you might be wondering, How am I supposed to be OK, when he's not? That's a critical question, and you don't have to answer it alone. Leslie is offering a free, faith-based webinar designed to give you the clarity and confidence to take your next right step. During this free training, we will cover: How to clearly define your problem, the other person's problem (at least in your opinion), and the problem in your relationship. The difference between love that's motivated by fear and love that's motivated by freedom—and what it takes to make the switch. How to listen beneath the surface of nice words, flattery, and love bombing to discern what's true so that you can make good choices going forward. How to build your own internal strength so that his weaknesses—or yours—don't get the best of you. ...and much more. Reserve your spot now: https://leslievernick.com/problem Beloved, God sees. He sees your tears, your confusion, your exhaustion—and He cares. You are not alone, and you are not beyond hope. No matter how deep the pain or how tangled the web, God is a God of truth, healing, and freedom. You don't have to figure it all out today. Just take the next brave step. You were made for more than survival. You were made to live in peace, truth, and safety. Watch Mike Winger's message on abuse and divorce: View Here

Let me start with a confession. Classifiers are hard. Not hard in the way vocabulary is hard, where you simply need more exposure, more repetition, more time. Classifiers are hard because they require signers to think spatially while signing temporally, to track multiple referents while producing new content, to select among productive options while maintaining discourse coherence. That mouthful of a sentence appears in the opening of Depicting Space, and I want to unpack it for you, because hidden inside that description is something important about human cognition. When you speak English, your words unfold in time. One after another. Linear. Sequential. The sentence has a beginning, a middle, an end. You cannot say two words simultaneously. The channel is narrow. But when you sign ASL, something different happens. Your hands can represent two entities at once. Your face carries grammatical information independent of your hands. Your body can shift to become a character while your hands continue to manipulate objects in observer space. The channel is wide. Parallel processing becomes possible.
In this solo episode of the By Any Means Coaches Podcast, Coleman Ayers breaks down the concept of nonlinear pedagogy, reframed as the nonlinear progression model, and explains why learning, development, and skill acquisition in basketball are rarely clean, linear processes. Drawing from research across sport, education, and motor learning, Coleman challenges the traditional “start simple and build up” mindset and makes the case for starting closer to (or slightly above) an athlete's true challenge point to accelerate learning and improve transfer to the game.Through practical basketball-specific examples like shooting footwork, ball screen decision-making, warmups, and youth development, Coleman explains how nonlinear structure and nonlinear progress work together. He outlines why struggle is not only acceptable but necessary, how regressions should often replace progressions, and why coaches must reframe expectations around visible improvement. The episode closes with actionable rules of thumb to help coaches design more efficient, engaging, and game-representative training environments.Timestamps:00:01 – Introduction to nonlinear pedagogy and why learning isn't linear 01:28 – Nonlinear structure vs. nonlinear progress explained 02:39 – Traditional linear progressions and why they fall short 04:08 – Starting with difficulty and regressing instead of building up 05:09 – Inefficiency of linear models and wasted training time 06:32 – Engagement, autonomy, and mental toughness benefits 07:14 – Giving athletes time to struggle and self-organize 08:28 – Why linear progressions don't transfer well to games 09:13 – Addressing concerns about bad habits and technique 10:58 – Confidence, psychological momentum, and game reality 11:50 – Example: shooting footwork and nonlinear application 13:00 – Example: handling aggressive ball screen coverages 15:19 – Starting live, then regressing with purpose 16:05 – Rules of thumb: start 10% harder, regress more than progress 17:25 – Finding challenge in warmups 18:41 – Whole–part–whole and play–drill–play frameworks 20:27 – When it makes sense to start simple 22:01 – Youth development, experimentation, and learning windows 24:25 – Advanced challenges making basic skills easier 26:34 – Nonlinear progress and managing expectations 28:00 – Spacing, consolidation, and why breaks matter 30:30 – Final takeaways on embracing the chaos of learningCoaching Resources: https://www.byanymeanscoaches.comBAM Blueprint Book: https://www.byanymeanscoaches.com/modern-basketball-blueprintIf this episode challenged the way you think about player development, be sure to check out the By Any Means Coaches Certification and Coleman's book, The Modern Basketball Blueprint, where these concepts are explored in much greater depth.

In this fifth episode of Building MarsBased, Àlex Rodriguez Bacardit reflects on nearly 12 years of operating as a remote-first company since 2014. Inspired by the 37signals philosophy, MarsBased was designed as a "hard remote" entity to optimize for productivity over mere presence, a model that forced the founders to defend their professional authority without a physical office during the early years.To maintain human connection in a distributed team, the company established rituals like Martian Days, quarterly in-person meetings, and Martian Tapas, where team members showcase new skills or tools. A key principle in avoiding "second-class citizens" is ensuring that no major company decisions are made during informal hangouts in Barcelona, keeping the playing field level for everyone regardless of their location.The MarsBased hiring strategy specifically filters for seniors, former entrepreneurs, or freelancers who are exceptional written communicators, as remote environments can feel isolating or "hostile" for those who lack experience in self-management. This professional maturity is supported by a streamlined tech stack, evolving from Basecamp to Linear, and a culture of 100% trust from day one, rather than a system of surveillance.While remoteness brings challenges like the "loneliness slump" around month 12, the company remains 95% faithful to its original 2014 vision. By treating employees like adults and prioritizing quality over quantity, MarsBased continues to thrive as an independent, bootstrapped lifestyle business.Support the show

What happens when hope doesn't save you — but reveals the truth? In this deeply personal manifesto episode, Dr. Connie Cheung shares how kidney failure, repeated near-transplants, and life on dialysis dismantled a false identity built on performance, resilience, and survival — and returned her to herself. This is not a story of toxic positivity or glossy healing. It's a meditation on paradox: ✨ gratitude and grief ✨ hope and fear ✨ control and surrender ✨ survival and freedom Drawing from lived experience as a patient, clinician, and founder of EASE OS™, this episode explores why healing is not linear, why fixing yourself often perpetuates suffering, and why true wholeness comes from integration — not answers. You'll hear reflections on: ✔️ Why chronic illness often initiates identity collapse ✔️ The hidden cost of resilience and "being brave" ✔️ Fragmentation in modern healthcare and why integration matters Carl Jung's idea of individuation, lived — not theorized Why many people are living in lives that don't fit — and how to reorient without abandoning yourself This episode is for anyone who feels tired of trying to get it right, tired of fixing, tired of forcing certainty — and ready to live with presence instead. Subscribe, follow, and stay — if you're ready to heal without abandoning yourself. #healingjourney #chronicillness #kidneyfailure #dialysislife #non-linearhealing #nervoussystemregulation #integrationvsfragmentation #CarlJungindividuation #EASEOS #somatichealing #functionalmedicine #yogaandhealing #emotionalresilience #livingwithuncertainty Be sure to subscribe to our podcast and YouTube channel so you never miss an episode of the EASE OS: Less Effort, More Power!

Sponsored by Pepperstone Progress in trading isn't smooth or predictable. Here's why effort and results don't line up… and why that's just part of the game.
This episode is being re-released in remembrance of Scott Adams, who has passed away on the 13th of January, 2026. This interview remains a meaningful reflection of his ideas, experiences, and voice, and it deserved to be shared again. My guest today, Scott Adams, the creator of Dilbert, joins me to talk about exactly why that is and the type of thinking he refers to as "Loserthink." It's also the title of his new book subtitled, How Untrained Brains are Ruining America. Today, we talk about the fact that being right and being wrong feel the same, how to determine what battles to fight online, how shaming and mockery can be used positively, and ultimately how you can avoid thinking like a loser. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS Augmenting your intelligence Wrestling with social media A "slippery slope" Linear thinking Predictable variables to success Influencing other people Enlightened selfishness Succeeding at systems Mental addiction Adding to your talent stack There's always a deeper level Engaging in "loser think" Determining a stranger's thoughts SCOTT ADAMS Gents, I am stoked to be able to introduce you to my guest today, Scott Adams. Before I do, I want to make sure I thank my friend, Jordan Harbinger, for introducing us. You may not know who Scott is right away but I'm sure you know Dilbert. Scott is the creator of Dilbert and the bestselling author of Win Bigly and his new book, Loserthink. Although Scott really started to gain attention and traction with Dilbert, his political commentary is, in my mind, just as, if not more, important. If you're interested, you can check out what he has to say on Twitter (@scottadamssays). He's never been afraid to ruffle a few feathers and I think that is why he has gained such a following – his ability to say what needs to be said and his ability to say it in a way that connects with so many of us. SYSTEMS AND PROCESSES Gentlemen, we're all aware of how important systems and processes are on our path to success but how many men have not created those systems in every facet of their lives. These are the same men who often wonder why that cannot seem to get ahead. This month, inside the Iron Council, we'll be exploring and deep-diving into the systems and processes I use and what the 500+ members are using to achieve maximum results. We'll help you unpackage your systems, explore what's working, remove what isn't, and rebuild a strategy that will ensure your success. If you'd like to know more and build your blueprint for success, band with us inside the Iron Council. You'll get the tools, challenges, assignments, camaraderie, and brotherhood needed to thrive.

Today's guest is Aaron Uthoff. Aaron Uthoff, PhD, is a sport scientist and coach whose work sits right at the intersection of biomechanics, motor learning, and sprint performance. His research digs into acceleration, force application, and some less conventional forms of locomotion, including backward sprinting, with the goal of connecting solid science to what actually works on the field, track, or in rehab. Backward running shows up all the time in warm-ups and general prep. Most of the time, though, it's thrown in casually, without much thought about what it might actually be doing for speed, coordination, or tissue loading. In this episode, Aaron walks through his path into performance science, which is anything but linear. From skiing in Montana and playing desert sports, to football and track, to a stretch training horses in Australia, his journey eventually led him to research mentors in Arizona, Scotland, and New Zealand. That broad background shows up clearly in how he thinks about movement. One of the big takeaways from our conversation is Aaron's overview of research showing that structured backward running programs can improve forward acceleration and even jumping ability. We also get into how backward running can be used as a screening and coordination tool, and where it fits into rehabilitation, including what's happening at the joints, how muscles are working, and how to progress it without forcing things. We finish by digging into wearable resistance, including asymmetrical loading, and why this emerging tool may have more upside for speed and movement development than most people realize.

(https://www.just-fly-sports.com/podcast-home/) Topics 0:00 – Aaron's background and coaching lens 6:40 – Seeing movement through posture and orientation 13:25 – Why breathing changes how athletes move 20:45 – Tempo, rhythm, and shaping better movement 30:10 – Constraints based coaching and problem-solving 40:55 – Sprint mechanics without over cueing 51:20 – Using environment to guide adaptation 1:01:30 – Blending strength work with movement quality 1:12:15 – Coaching intuition, feedback, and learning to see Actionable Takeaways 6:40 – Posture sets the ceiling for movement quality Good movement often starts with orientation, not technique cues. Aaron emphasizes looking at ribcage position, pelvis orientation, and head placement before trying to fix limb mechanics. Clean posture gives athletes access to better options without forcing patterns. 13:25 – Breathing influences coordination and output Breathing is not just recovery, it shapes how force is expressed. Use simple breathing resets to help athletes feel better alignment and rhythm. Watch how breathing patterns change movement quality before adding more coaching input. 20:45 – Tempo reveals how athletes organize movement Tempo exposes whether an athlete can control positions under time pressure. Slowing or slightly speeding tasks can uncover compensations without verbal instruction. Use tempo to teach rhythm instead of constantly correcting mechanics. 30:10 – Constraints beat constant verbal cueing Aaron highlights using task constraints to guide learning instead of over explaining. Change distances, targets, or starting positions to let athletes self organize. Good constraints reduce the need for constant coaching intervention. 40:55 – Sprint mechanics improve through shapes, not forcing positions Trying to force textbook sprint positions often backfires. Focus on global shapes and direction of force instead of individual joint angles. Let athletes discover better sprint mechanics through drills that preserve intent. 51:20 – Environment is a powerful teacher Surface, space, and task design matter more than many cues. Use varied environments to expand an athlete's movement vocabulary. Small changes in environment can create big changes in coordination. 1:01:30 – Strength training should support movement, not override it Strength work should expand options, not lock athletes into rigid patterns. Choose lifts and loading schemes that preserve posture and rhythm. If strength training degrades movement quality, reassess the intent. 1:12:15 – Coaching is about learning what to ignore Not every flaw needs fixing. Aaron emphasizes knowing which details matter in the moment and which do not. Better coaches simplify their lens rather than add more rules. Quotes from Aaron Uthoff “Posture is often the biggest limiter of movement quality, not strength or mobility.” “Breathing changes how the nervous system organizes movement.” “Tempo tells you more about coordination than maximal output ever will.” “If you have to keep cueing it, the task probably needs to change.” “Good sprinting comes from better shapes, not chasing perfect positions.” “The environment can do more coaching than your words.” “Strength should give athletes more options, not fewer.” “Part of coaching maturity is learning what not to coach.” About Aaron Uthoff Aaron Uthoff, PhD, is a sport scientist, researcher, and coach focused on human movement, sprint mechanics, and motor learning. He holds a doctorate in kinesiology, with research centered on how neuromuscular factors influence speed, coordination, and efficiency. He is especially known for his work on acceleration, sprinting, and unconventional locomotor strategies such as backward running, and how these methods affect force application, tissue stress, and motor control. His work blends strong scientific foundations with practical coaching insight, making it highly relevant for track and field, team sports, and rehabilitation environments. Alongside his research, Aaron works closely with coaches and athletes to translate complex biomechanical and neurological ideas into simple, usable training concepts. His approach values curiosity, experimentation, and respecting how the body naturally adapts when it's exposed to new movement challenges.
Amir (Co-Founder at Humblytics) shares how he builds an “AI-native” company by focusing less on shiny tools and more on change management: assessing AI fluency across roles, setting the right success metrics, and creating shared context so AI can reliably ship work. The big theme is convergence—engineering, product, and design are collapsing into tighter loops thanks to tools like Cursor, MCP connectors, and Figma Make. Amir demos workflows like: AI-generated context files + auto-updated documentation, scraping customer domains to infer ICPs, turning screenshots into layered Figma designs, then converting Figma to working React code in minutes, and even running an “AI co-founder” Slack bot that files Linear tickets and can hand work to agents.Timestamps0:00 Introduction0:06 Amir's stance: “no AI experts” — it's constant learning in a fast-changing field.1:59 Cursor as the unlock: not just coding, but PM/strategy/design work via MCPs.4:17 The real problem: AI adoption is mostly change management + fluency assessment.5:18 The AI fluency rubric (helper → automator → augmentor → agentic) and why it matters.8:13 Cursor analytics: measuring AI-generated code and usage across the team.9:24 “New code is ~99% AI-generated” + how they keep quality via tight review + incremental changes.10:58 Docs workflow: GitBook connected to repo → AI edits docs and pushes live fast.14:02 ICP building: export Stripe customers → scrape domains with Firecrawl → cluster personas.17:45 Hallucination in the wild: AI misclassifies a company; human correction loop matters.34:43 Wild move: they often design in code and use an AI-generated style guide to stay consistent.38:10 Best demo: screenshot → Figma Make → layered design → Figma MCP → React code in minutes.45:29 “AI co-founder” Slack bot (Pixel): turns a bug report into a Linear ticket and can hand off to agents.48:46 Amir's wish list: we “solved dev”; now we need Cursor for marketing/sales → path to $1M ARR.Tools & technologies mentionedCursor — AI-first IDE used for coding and product/design/strategy workflows; includes team analytics.MCP (Model Context Protocol) — “connector” layer (Anthropic-origin) that lets LLMs interface with external tools/services.ChatGPT — used as a common baseline tool; discussed in the context of prompting practices and workflows.Microsoft Copilot — referenced via the law firm incentive story; used as an example of “usage metrics” gone wrong.Anthropic (AI fluency framework) — inspiration source for the helper/automator/augmentor/agentic rubric.GitBook — documentation platform connected to the repo so docs can be updated and published quickly.Firecrawl (MCP) — agentic web scraper used to analyze customer domains and infer ICP/personas.Stripe — source of customer export data (domains) to build ICP clustering.Figma — design collaboration tool; used here with Make + MCP to move from design → code.Figma Make — feature to recreate UI from an image/screenshot into editable, layered designs.Figma MCP — connector that allows Cursor/LLMs to pull Figma components/designs and generate code.React — front-end framework used in the demo for generating functional UI components.Supabase — mentioned as part of a sample stack when generating a PRD.React Router — mentioned as part of the sample stack in PRD generation.Slack — where Amir runs internal agents (including the “AI co-founder” bot).Linear — project management tool used for creating tickets from Slack/agent workflows.CI/CD — their deployment/review pipeline; emphasized as the human accountability layer.Subscribe at thisnewway.com to get the step-by-step playbooks, tools, and workflows.
As Dish Media's new head of programmatic partnerships, Kristinnsson is helping turn advanced TV into a single, addressable marketplace. Episode TranscriptPlease note, this transcript may contain minor inconsistencies compared to the episode audio.Damian Fowler (00:00):I'm Damian Fowler.Ilyse Liffreing (00:01):And I'm Ilyse Liffreing.Damian Fowler (00:02):And welcome to this edition of The Big Impression.Ilyse Liffreing (00:09):Today, we're joined by Liam Kristinnsson, head of programmatic partnerships at Dish Media, where he's helping shape how the company connects advertisers with premium audiences across both linear and digital environments.Damian Fowler (00:23):Dish has been pushing hard into the programmatic space. From Dish Connected, it's addressable solution across the ecosystem to Advantage, which links programmatic buying with linear inventory in real time. It's all part of a broader move to bring automation and accountability to advanced TV.Ilyse Liffreing (00:39):We'll talk with Liam about how Dish is tackling fragmentation, what premium really means in a mixed green world, and where the next phase of programmatic growth is headed.Damian Fowler (00:51):So let's get into it.Liam Kristinnsson (00:57):Dish Connected has really revolutionized our product in the marketplace. We've been able to convert an additional four million to five million households into tangible CTV devices across real-time bidding systems across the industry. And it's kind of given us a leg up against some of our more linear competition where we now have full autonomy over our inventory and can enable and provide transparency downstream to any client.Damian Fowler (01:28):That's amazing. I mean, there was a moment there where there was a sort of either all linear or CTV, but this is something that's kind of connecting thoseLiam Kristinnsson (01:38):Two worlds. I think this is the start of the convergence. I know it probably truly started post-pandemic, I would say, but the reality is now that what is perceived as underutilized impression-based audiences are now becoming tangible and kind of overlapping with their traditional legacy linear purchases. And there's much more value to it because we are not enabling people to find attribution in a more roundabout extrapolated way, but we can provide meaningful real time results to third party attribution vendors or measurement vendors.Damian Fowler (02:20):And that brings us to Advantage, which you introduced in May to Power Programmatic and Linear at the same time. Could you tell us a little bit more about that?Liam Kristinnsson (02:30):Yeah. So the beauty of Advantage is it really expands upon what we've already built for Programmatic in Disconnected, but it provides solutions across the whole suite of products we have. Our addressable business can tap into real-time kind of innovations, real-time optimizations against audiences, ensure that we are better delivering across the target audience and finding that incremental reach that in the past may have been next to impossible to verify. And now we have all that inventory in one place. It's kind of like a grocery store when I think the industry has become accustomed to going to a bodega. That's very New York with me, I understand. I like that. But sometimes bodegas have eggs, they have a deli, they might have milk, but they might not always have milk and seltzer and all the little things that you want on a day-to-day basis. And the reality is something lacking when it comes to you being able to actually fill your fridge.(03:35):Now we have all those components that the customer or the client is looking for.Damian Fowler (03:40):Yeah. I like that analogy.Ilyse Liffreing (03:41):It's a good one. Yeah, no, I like that. And now Liam, I'm curious about the advertisers you're working with. Is there a new segment of buyers that Programmatic is really opening the door to here? What is basically your sense of that cohort?Liam Kristinnsson (03:58):Yeah, I think it really has grown overnight programmatic in general, but I think it allows us to have expanded exposure across all clients that are looking for that more meaningful kind of results. I think we are seeing a lot of success in generating a lot of traction across the CPG world, the direct to consumer world. And I think we're finding a nice overlap from a category perspective of what we traditionally looked at as direct IO or addressable business, but maybe not all those brands or clients in maybe like a pharmaceutical vertical would tap or earmark dollars for commitments early in their planning phase. Now they have the liberty and the luxury to find that right audience and enable dollars downstream where we're just not hunting in that lane and now we can kind of, instead of spreading ourselves thin, the technology can enable us to really kind of tap into all those brands, whether it be the CPG or the pharmaceuticals.(05:05):Now on the CPG side, I would double down further. I think because in the linear world, traditionally there's a level of fragmentation when you were to buy linear and you're only getting a percentage of the marketplace. Now the transparency and data that we're passing downstream really changes that, right? Because now these CPG brands are looking to trade off their kind of gross rating points, but kind of understand, all right, am I serving a family that would buy my products? And now we're freeing up the inventory and making it available to those brands that maybe were not always keen on addressable or linear didn't provide enough eyeballs. We're compensating for that with the data we'reIlyse Liffreing (05:49):Providing. Do you have an example of a brand you're working with?Liam Kristinnsson (05:52):Yeah. So I mean, more specifically, even though that wasn't in some of the categories I called out, there was one or two major financial brands that we've been able to elevate our profile quite significantly with and then partner with them around some of their initiatives on the backend. And I think it kind of shows some of the flexibility that a publisher can now provide brands that I don't think they ever associated with a conglomerate or a media company like ourselves.Damian Fowler (06:23):On that point, there is a perception that the space is fragmented and that there's linear here and then there's streaming here. Do you think that that is changing that perception, maybe thanks to some of the work that you're doing?Liam Kristinnsson (06:36):I think that's a lot of our goal. I think that we are simplifying the process and enabling a household or a device level, right? And the device level tends to be at the unique user level and we have the ability to kind of triangulate that and make sure that we're providing good and strong data down to our partners. I think that as a marketplace holistically, I think the fragmentation has changed and I think a lot of that's around some consumer behavior that has changed or specifically around the way consumers are watching more free content or there's pockets where they're not required to provide a subscription. And I think that there's still a gap there and we do have some front porch access to our apps, but we are looking on our end to continue to develop and then enable through Advantage how we can kind of provide those, specifically those returning viewers, that clean look to the advertisers on the back end and really kind of leveraging deterministic data and first party signals to really define that audience more cleanly in some ways that competitors of ours maybe can't do.Ilyse Liffreing (07:53):Overall, how would you describe your measuring the success of these programmatic partnerships?Liam Kristinnsson (08:00):Yeah. So I think that that's a really unique place because that's something that has been our bread and butter. We have our own targeting and attribution team. They've worked very diligently on the direct IO side. I think a lot of the legacy information that they've been able to provide clients and the insights and the ways that we've been able to either cut our inventory or kind of group or the target audiences for these clients have helped demonstrate the programmatic partners the value in not just our audience, which I think is somewhat being underserved because Dish tends to be middle America and maybe they have less apps or maybe they leverage less apps. So they have been underserved. We have a legacy of success around specific verticals and we're able to kind of provide that to these brands. I think the challenge is it's a little bit of a black hole sometimes of how they tie it back to each other.(08:56):And I think there needs to be a little bit more assistance on our end. And by us, I mean the royal we across the industry of like providing some of those insights that I kind of alluded to earlier, whether it's, are we targeting and talking about unique users? Are we looking at success at a household level? And there is some innovation that's required there in the industry, but I think what we're doing is really at the forefront of enabling that.Ilyse Liffreing (09:23):Are there any particular channels that have surprised you in terms of performance or even advertiser adoption?Liam Kristinnsson (09:31):Sure. I mean, I think I imagine everybody talks about the success of sports. Sports has been a real catalyst to the boon of CTV enablement in general, but I think that I'd be remiss not to call out that a lot of our entertainment brands have shined, but not in the ways that traditionally they've been leveraged, right? Even though certain pockets of inventory is not super desirable in the marketplace at times, like news, there are a ton of clients that we've seen a lot of traction there and like pick up incremental success and really drive reach by anonymizing the content that they buy and focusing on the audience.Damian Fowler (10:20):That's interesting. Is there still some resistance to the idea of being around current affairs and news?Liam Kristinnsson (10:26):Yeah. I think I myself came from the website world years ago and I saw firsthand when a certain brand would be next to a certain type of content. And I understand the urgent need to not expose a valuable legacy luxury brand to something that may or may not be bad, right? Yeah. But the reality is often there is a disconnect from the content being consumed and the pod of commercials that's watched, right? Yeah. And while we often, and I'm sure we ... My mother certainly will watch news for hours and hours upon day, which is maybe not healthy for her lifestyle, but I think what's great about it, specifically when she goes to sit down, she is glued in to the TV. And that's something I think that a lot of people are trying to figure out, are people watching? Are they tuned in? Are they walking away?(11:30):And that's the black box of advertising, but I know that people that watch news are glued into the TV and consuming the content between segments. It's kind of like sports, right? Yeah.Damian Fowler (11:43):I think that's true. And I think that's true across all channels as far as I know people reading digital news as well, but I don't want to go off on a massive digression about news, but anyway. But it is fantastic. Can we pull back and look at the big picture a little bit? And we were wondering if there were any precedents or points of inspiration inside or outside of media that inform how you think about programmatic partnerships at Dish?Liam Kristinnsson (12:10):Sure. I mean, I think that back to what I was saying about evolution, I think often in the media industry, we look at things like baseball teams are run today. Not to use a sports analogy. I know you guys are probably sick of them, but- We love sports analogies here. Nelly said the trade death.(12:32):But the reality is these days people want home run hitters. And I think back in the day, that's a little bit of a cyclical history. People always want home run hitters and like big stats, but you win championships with diversity. And I think what partnerships means today is not what it maybe meant 12 or 13 years ago. I think there's a ... We're becoming a world where people, we're all playing Tetris and there's a way to make it all fit together if we cooperate and enable each other. So it's not one size fit all fits all. I think there's a lot of small partnerships and that's good for the competition of the industry and it doesn't take away from the value of these big partnerships. And I think I don't think in my time in TV there's ever been more opportunity there than there is today.Ilyse Liffreing (13:28):Something we often write about at the current is the value of like premium content versus maybe like user generated. For instance, what would you say is the importance of premium and I guess what kind of premium content is most popular? I mean, you brought up sports, but are there any others?Liam Kristinnsson (13:50):Yeah. I mean, I think premium content, I'm sure many people discuss across the course of ad week or just in the industry and in general, how valuable, unique and what's deemed as traditionally primetime TV is. But the reality is it's even more valuable than that because you are in a lot of ways demanding an eclectic audience to watch your spectrum of content and you can't always guarantee that in other places. There is also, sure there's some oversaturation for specific channels and maybe the product that they air, but the reality is it is not what everybody is consuming these days, right? It's Halloween. Everybody can find a bunch of great horror movies or Halloween's coming up, I should say. Everybody could find a bunch of great horror movies across the board, can't always guarantee what is in that content, how glued in they are versus just kind of like, "Oh, it's in season." I think with premium content, specifically around live TV, there's 365 days a year of people competing against each other from a content perspective, but it demands eyeballs.(15:07):And I think we're also starting to see a surprising jump in the youth getting app fatigue, I suppose, that is better enabling that premium content to ensure eyeballs there, but they're paying attention and I cannot stress that enough. In a world of a short attention span, they want to know what's going on and they consumeDamian Fowler (15:28):It. I would almost say it's short form content fatigue to a certain extent. There's something nice about a long form, a game,Liam Kristinnsson (15:41):ADamian Fowler (15:41):Football game,Liam Kristinnsson (15:42):A soccer game, or a movie. To that point, right? I was probably part of the problem with TV from a consumer point of view. I became like a cinephile which didn't help a company's ability to monetize myself, but the more meshed I get into the industry and the more, I don't know, popular I get, the less time I have to go find a film, right? The more time I have to maybe watch a drama about women in New York and I will watch the rerun that I just saw the week before at eight o'clock in anticipation of what's going to happen at nine o'clock, but really because I want to see the reunion or the interview at 10 o'clock, right? So now I'm consuming the same content twice, but I'm even more engaged in the live TV and there's something afterwards that is actually, maybe taped, but it feels live, right?(16:37):Yeah.Damian Fowler (16:37):And that's the proposition that Dish is getting into. I'd want to ask you, how's Dish Media building on the momentum that you've already created?Liam Kristinnsson (16:45):Yeah, I think right now it's what more can we do and how can we keep providing and enabling inventory for the right providers? I think that the assumption in the marketplace for any new product that comes out is, wow, this is it, it's here. 100% of it's enabled. That's never the case, right? It takes a year to ramp up typically for the average product, sometimes as much as three for us. We've been hitting the gas and I think now we're about to go from fifth to sixth speed and really kind of enable our inventory holistically to the marketplace. So for us, it's a little bit of crawl, walk, run from an enablement perspective and with that comes even greater insights into what are they consuming, what's the audience? How do we help define and clean up that audience downstream and then let others maybe do what they do best.(17:45):But we are really in a great position to keep kind of growing that and exposing net new insights about users that I'm not sure everybody's contemplating.Damian Fowler (17:56):Yeah, I'm sure.Ilyse Liffreing (17:57):Very cool. I have a question here about the economy and as you know, and everybody does, it's on kind of shaky ground, you don't know. How do you see spend evolving in the programmatic space at this time?Liam Kristinnsson (18:16):Well, I'm glad you asked that. I think there is marketplace concerns about what is happening on the demand side and a lot of them are valid. A lot of them are maybe being overthought perhaps, but I think there's some rocky roads ahead for specific industries, but it presents a unique opportunity. And I think from a publisher perspective, maintaining the value of inventory and the premium content that they have is absolutely a must because we are going to continue to provide insights and improve products that ultimately will provide better outcomes for backend users. If we kind of enable knee-jerk reactive spend, I think that actually goes against the grain of supply path optimization and increasing outcomes holistically under the guise of potentially lower rates or what have you. But I truly believe that if one category is down, another needs to go up. And I think advertising is like a mutual fund like that where I have lived in Europe in the past and there's a phrase in Scandinavia that like, no matter what happens to our small economy, people will advertise beer because somebody will buy it, right?(19:46):And I think that's much more universal than just in a few select small countries. And I think in a lot of ways we saw that in the pandemic, right? Direct to consumer brands, a lot more variety of entertainment companies or hardware products or TVs were able to kind of put their best foot forward and give the consumer options, right? And I think it's some of their responsibility to provide those options. What we, the publishers can do is enable and ensure they're getting the right results for the content and fitting them in the content or audiences that they really can get the best out of them, right?Damian Fowler (20:28):Absolutely. Okay. We're going to bring this home now with some quick fire questions, right? And here's the first one. What are you obsessed with figuring out right now?Liam Kristinnsson (20:38):Well, this might be a little divisive, but I am obsessed with continuing to improve supply path optimization, but I believe that comes with the slow sunsetting of linear. When I got to Dish, we were still primarily, while our bread and butter was addressable, we were still primarily from a percentage basis, linear, right? Since then, we've completely flipped the script. We are by far and away, mostly impression based. And the reality is I think that we are leveraging too many legacy tools to tell and provide stories on outcomes that are not always as accurate as they should be. We live in a world where transparency is key, maybe not full transparency all the time, but enough transparency where I, the client or brand should be getting a return on our investment or understanding why the audience or the content I was targeting is not working for me.(21:42):And I think that's, those are the pockets we need to start exploring and understanding, not so much the, how do I understand foot traffic on a day-to-day basis, but not convert that to sales when I'm extrapolating out 32 families, right? So that's really, really what I think needs to happen. And I think there's a lot of work to be done there and it's not going to happen overnight, but it starts here and starts with an advantage really.Ilyse Liffreing (22:06):Wow. And why do you think that the slow death of linear, as you said, has to happen for that?Liam Kristinnsson (22:15):I shouldn't say it has to happen. I think there is a time and a place for it, right? I think if I'm going to a bodega and I think I want a soft drink, that's their goal is to make sure that the first thing I think of is whatever the product is, but I think that time and a place is actually creating a lot of noise downstream and creating a lot of challenges for folks on the attribution and measurement side to actually understand and holistically look at their media purchases. And I think it's okay to have gross in terms of volume, ways of looking at how media should be purchased and leveraged, but I believe nine out of 10 clients really, they deserve the insights and the understanding of who is buying their products and how we can figure out how to kind of tie that together and improve into the next year.(23:10):That's how their products are going to build, especially with some of this like in certain categories. There's maybe too many brands or too little, right? Better data will inform beyond individual clients, but it'll enable people to start unique businesses that can compete in an area where there's clearly a lot of eager consumers,(23:35):Right?Ilyse Liffreing (23:36):Very cool. What's one piece of wisdom you'd pass on to other media leaders navigating the shift to programmatic?Liam Kristinnsson (23:43):Yeah. So I hate to say the same thing twice, but if I were to give one piece of wisdom is value your inventory that is going to be the future of your business and there are ways that you can improve your product and enable and improve a third party client or vendor's product, but racing to the bottom for what is happening tomorrow will not enable you next year. And it's a real concern in the marketplace, but my concern is actually twofold that it doesn't actually just hurt publishers, but it ends up ultimately hurting the brands and the people buying the inventory because they are going to receive exponentially more noise, right? And I think that as an industry with a lot of noise, we should really think about like how we can kind of isolate it into, and harness it into, into actual meaningful outcomes.Damian Fowler (24:48):If you could pick one brand that's really nailing programmatic right now, who would it be?Liam Kristinnsson (24:53):Without explicitly calling out a unique brand, but I'll give you two types of folks that are really nailing programmatic. One, I think is second tier auto brands where they are unlocking, and I really think Disconnected plays a great role here. They are unlocking and understanding how they can better access inventory for the right audiences, period. That could be isolating and understanding how I could serve ads from a reach perspective across the city of Des Moines, or it can be somebody looking for blonde-haired men that have two boxer dogs. Secondly, and I think this is part of the paradigm shift across the industry. I think there's quite a number of CPG brands that legacy-wise have really had outstanding success reaching mass eyeballs, whether it's through billboards, radio, traditional linear television. But now again, like they are able to fill a void across the whole ecosystem by getting better, more dynamic insights into the audiences that they're selling to, but also they're actually getting insights, period.(26:13):Retail data, you're talking about? Retail data, yes. And I think if I'm a chip brand, sometimes I want people to know my name first. And that's great. There's a need for that, but eventually you have to start focusing on how you can get money back from that. It's not just about getting your name out there, or it could be diversified. Maybe your name is out there, but now other names have come in, right? Now, how do you leverage the dynamic component of programmatic to diversify your creative and your ability to deliver to the same audience? It'll change the way we think and look at maybe traditional frequency capping or traditional exposure, but now the brand through Programmatic can really lead the new age of creative storytelling and how people understand or change the way people think they know products.Damian Fowler (27:13):And that's it for this edition of The Big Impression.Ilyse Liffreing (27:15):This show is produced by Molten Heart. Our theme is by Love and Caliber, and our associate producer is Sydney Cairns.Liam Kristinnsson (27:22):And remember ... We're also starting to see a surprising jump in the youth kind of getting app fatigue, I suppose, that is better enabling that premium content to ensure eyeballs there, but they're paying attention.Ilyse Liffreing (27:37):I'm Damian.

In this final Blood Sugar Mastery coaching call, we're reflecting on what real healing actually looks like — and why it's almost never a straight line.You'll hear powerful wins from clients who've experienced steadier energy, fewer blood sugar crashes, improved digestion, reduced inflammation, weight loss, and even coming off medications like metformin. But more importantly, we talk about the mindset shifts that make those changes sustainable.We cover why “balance” isn't about doing everything perfectly, how to work with your body instead of shaming it, and why curiosity is one of the most underrated tools in healing.This conversation is a reminder that:Falling out of routine doesn't mean failureSymptoms are information, not something to fearConsistency is built through compassion, not pressureIn this episode, we discuss:Why healing and balance are dynamic, not staticHow blood sugar stability improves energy, mood, and confidenceComing off medications by supporting digestion and metabolismWhen and how to reduce supplements safelyThe role of sunlight, movement, and seasonal eatingHow perfectionism keeps people stuck — and what to do insteadUsing curiosity instead of self-criticism when routines fall apartWhy digestion comes before food rules or macrosLearning your personal non-negotiables for sleep, energy, and moodIf you've ever felt frustrated that your body isn't responding “fast enough,” or guilty for falling off routine, this episode will help you reframe the process and reconnect with trust.Healing isn't about doing more.It's about listening better.Book a call with me to learn more about the program: https://calendly.com/daniellehamiltonhealth/discoverycall Enroll today! https://dhhealth.showitpreview.com/blood-sugar-mastery STAY IN TOUCH WITH ME:

In this episode, Dr. Salena Smith explores the truth no one talks about; healing isn't linear, and sometimes it asks to be revisited inside our closest relationships. When old wounds resurface unexpectedly, they can create confusion, rupture, and even a sense of betrayal for the partner who didn't know the trauma was there. This conversation unpacks how triggers emerge long after we thought we were healed, how trauma can silently shape adult behavior, and what it takes for relationships to repair, reconnect, and grow when healing shows up again.
The Falcons face off against the Rams on Monday Night Football, the team that Falcons Head Coach Raheem Morris won a Super Bowl with, and it would probably do coach a favor if the "Super Bowl or Bust" mentality that the Rams have rubs off a little more.
My guest is Matt Abrahams, lecturer at Stanford Graduate School of Business and a world expert in communication and public speaking. He explains how to speak with clarity and confidence and how to be more authentic in your communication in all settings: public, work, relationships, etc. He shares how to eliminate filler words ("umm"-ing), how to overcome stage fright and how to structure messages in a way that makes audiences remember the information. He also shares how to recover gracefully if you "blank out" on stage and simple drills and frameworks that dramatically improve spontaneity, storytelling and overall communication effectiveness.
