In this inspiring conversation, Darin sits down with Javant Benton, the creator behind the popular platform Healthy Vegan Eating, whose personal health crisis led him to completely transform his life through food. After facing pre-diabetes, hypertension, and even the possibility of lymphoma, Benton realized he had to radically change the trajectory of his health. What followed was a deep exploration into nutrition, whole foods, and the power of a plant-forward lifestyle. Through trial, error, and relentless curiosity, Benton lost 85 pounds and began developing creative plant-based recipes that replicate the comfort foods people love—without the refined sugars, oils, and processed ingredients that damage long-term health. In this episode, Benton shares how diet became the foundation of his healing, why most people struggle to adopt healthier eating habits, and how creating "bridge foods" can help people transition toward better health without feeling deprived.     What You'll Learn How a looming health crisis forced Benton to completely rethink his diet and lifestyle Why many people don't take their health seriously until a major wake-up call The confusion people face when trying to navigate conflicting nutrition advice How Benton lost 85 pounds and reversed major health risks through diet Why plant-based eating doesn't have to feel restrictive or boring The concept of "bridge foods" that help people transition to healthier diets How recreating comfort foods can help people adopt healthier habits Why cooking and preparing whole foods can become an act of self-care The cultural conditioning around meat consumption and protein myths How improving your diet often triggers improvements in other areas of life     Chapters 00:00:00 – The deeper mission behind SuperLife and creating a roadmap to true health 00:02:11 – Javon's upbringing and how environment shapes lifelong habits 00:03:17 – Why epigenetics proves your health is not predetermined 00:04:00 – The slow buildup of disease: weight gain, pre-diabetes, and hypertension 00:04:47 – The moment everything changed: a potential lymphoma diagnosis 00:06:02 – Why fear is often the catalyst for real transformation 00:06:39 – The hidden dangers of modern food: chemicals, plastics, and processed diets 00:08:24 – Searching for answers: confusion in the world of nutrition advice 00:09:16 – The realization that food—not just exercise—determines your outcome 00:10:10 – The turning point: discovering evidence-based nutrition 00:11:21 – Overcoming peer pressure and committing fully to change 00:12:19 – The truth about fish, toxins, and environmental contamination 00:13:14 – The importance of nutrient awareness on a fully plant-based diet 00:14:01 – Why Javon ultimately chose a fully vegan lifestyle 00:14:27 – The bigger issue: industrial pollution and bioaccumulation in food 00:16:54 – The reality of factory farming and toxic meat consumption 00:18:03 – Why "clean food" matters more than diet labels 00:18:43 – Becoming your own health advocate and taking ownership 00:19:54 – Losing 85 pounds and inspiring others through visible transformation 00:20:46 – The real barrier: people don't want to give up the foods they love 00:21:04 – The breakthrough idea: making unhealthy foods healthy 00:21:28 – Recreating comfort foods without refined sugar, oil, or processed ingredients 00:22:12 – The trial-and-error process behind building healthy recipes 00:22:49 – Eliminating excuses: making healthy eating accessible for everyone 00:23:12 – "Don't change what you eat—change how you make it" 00:24:30 – Why plant-based eating is far more diverse than people think 00:25:23 – The power of "bridging" instead of forcing drastic change 00:25:53 – Shocking moments when people couldn't tell plant-based from meat 00:26:52 – The biggest mistake in the health space: no middle ground 00:28:14 – Why meeting people where they are is the key to lasting change 00:30:28 – The truth: you don't need to go all-in to benefit from plants 00:31:14 – Why personalization matters more than strict diet rules 00:32:35 – The "middleman" realization: going straight to plant nutrients 00:33:07 – The ethical and emotional shift around food choices 00:34:27 – Why eating plants becomes a form of self-respect and alignment 00:35:06 – How nutrition improves self-esteem and overall life choices 00:35:18 – "You don't know how good it feels to feel good" 00:36:13 – The raw truth: change often starts from selfish survival 00:36:49 – Cultural conditioning around food and breaking free from it 00:37:23 – Why leading by example is more powerful than preaching 00:38:09 – You can't force awareness—people must be ready 00:39:09 – Why you don't have to wait for a health crisis to change 00:40:09 – Debunking extreme diet trends and the importance of balance 00:41:05 – The two-year journey of creating the cookbook 00:42:12 – The real mission: helping people, not selling books 00:43:08 – Free access to hundreds of recipes and removing barriers 00:44:10 – Why passion makes even the hardest work enjoyable 00:44:59 – Final message: meet yourself where you are and start there     Thank You to Our Sponsors Therasage: Go to www.therasage.com and use code DARIN at checkout for 15% off Bite Toothpaste: Go to trybite.com/DARIN20 or use code DARIN20 for 20% off your first order.

It's to meet people where they are and help them improve step by step. If we can recreate the foods people already love using whole, nourishing ingredients, we remove the barrier of deprivation—and suddenly living a healthier life becomes something people actually want to do.

You're not losing because you lack talent. You're losing because you're focused on the wrong thing. Most people obsess over results — the money, the body, the relationship, the success. But winners don't worship outcomes. They build systems. In this episode of the Secret to Success Podcast, we break down why focusing on the result keeps you stuck — and how shifting to solution thinking changes everything. If you've been: • Starting strong but falling off • Setting goals but not seeing progress • Working hard but not moving forward • Believing… but still stuck at the 6-yard line This conversation is for you. We dive into: • The difference between victim thinking and architect thinking • Why belief determines your level of commitment • How focusing on solutions restores power over your life • Why consistency without the right system is rehearsed failure • The mental shift that separates dreamers from disciplined winners You don't rise to your goals. You rise to your systems. If you're tired of chasing results and ready to start designing them, this episode will shift your focus.

Growing up in an African family and watching her mom battle cancer set her sights on medicine early. In high school, working on research at Dana-Farber and reading her mom's records brought everything full circle, and an ER simulation at Midscience at Harvard made the dream feel real.After college, losing the structure and community she relied on made studying for the MCAT alone brutal. Maya ultimately invested in resources, leaned on supportive friends, and found mentors—including a plastic surgeon she met through SNMA who even helped fund tutoring. She took three gap years, built meaningful clinical experience as a medical assistant, and weathered 3–4 application cycles. After five MCAT attempts and a pipeline cutoff missed by one point, she finally broke through—landing 6–8 interviews and her first acceptance just two days after an interview.Now in medical school, Maya is intentional about confidence and early Step 1 prep, while using social media to support students coming behind her. This episode is a blueprint for rebuilding structure, choosing community wisely, and giving yourself permission not to quit.What You'll Learn:- How to rebuild structure and community after leaving college- What changed after five MCAT attempts and multiple cycles- Using mentors and groups like SNMA/MAPS to open doors- Turning gap years into real clinical growth as a medical assistant- A confidence-first mindset for Step 1 and beyond

They discuss Russia's rich and powerful keeping families and assets in the West, the propagandist Solovyov “going rogue” as he criticizes military shortages and communications bans, and how a widening internet and messenger crackdown—especially severe in central Moscow—may relate to purges around Shoigu and fears of elite plotting. Constantine describes severe economic disruption from unreliable internet, business closures, layoffs, and unpaid salaries, likening it to a Titanic-style collapse. They also assess how higher oil prices may briefly ease pressure without saving the regime, and argue Russia is losing allies and geopolitical standing, citing Iran, Syria, and BRICS fading from propaganda.----------CHAPTERS:01:41 Surkov Rumors and Exile06:03 Londongrad and Elite Safe Havens11:04 Solovyov Goes Off Script12:59 Propagandists Smell Change16:35 Shoigu Purge and Internet Link18:34 Moscow Internet Blackout Mystery22:20 Frontline Fallout and Civilian Disruption25:09 Army Comms Breakdown26:03 Internet Shutdown Fallout26:37 Businesses Freeze Up27:53 Daily Life Disrupted28:47 Layoffs And Panic29:36 Titanic Collapse Analogy30:56 Wake Up Call And History32:40 Satire And Denial34:12 Oil Price Windfall41:38 Putin Abandons Allies----------

Tenderoni Hotline #24: Hello my love, and welcome back to the Tenderoni Hotline, our soft and spacious corner of the Feminist Wellness Podcast where we explore your most tender questions about healing, nervous system care, and returning home to yourself.In today's episode, we're diving into two thoughtful questions about grief, empathy, and emotional boundaries, and what it means to care deeply without abandoning yourself in the process.First, we explore something that often goes unnamed: grief over losing meaningful possessions. What happens when you lose a beloved object, like a piece of jewelry, a journal, a childhood item, or a home that held an entire chapter of your life? If you've ever felt embarrassed about how deeply something like that affected you, this conversation offers a compassionate reframe. We talk about why these losses can feel so profound, how objects can hold memory and meaning, and why your grief deserves to be honored without judgment.Next, we turn to a question about witnessing mistreatment in the workplace. If you've ever felt deeply disturbed by abuse of power or injustice at work, and found yourself ruminating about it long after the moment has passed, this conversation will help you understand what's happening in your nervous system. We explore the difference between empathy and emotional absorption, and how to practice boundaried empathy so you can care, advocate, and take action without burning yourself out.You'll walk away with a deeper understanding of how grief, empathy, and nervous system activation intersect, along with gentle practices to help you hold your tenderness with more steadiness and care. So grab your coziest blanket, pour a warm drink, and come settle into the tenderness with me.Got a question for the Tenderoni Hotline?

Clean energy is winning on cost.Solar and storage are cheaper than ever. Deployment is accelerating. The economics are undeniable.So why does it still feel like the industry is losing the broader public narrative?In this live conversation, Nico Johnson sits down with journalist Sammy Roth to explore the gap between technical success and cultural influence. After more than a decade covering energy and climate for the Los Angeles Times, Sammy now writes the independent newsletter Climate-Colored Goggles, where he examines how media, identity, and storytelling shape the energy transition.Sammy argues that the challenge isn't just policy or technology — it's narrative. While clean energy has focused on cost curves and deployment, it has often underinvested in the cultural work required to build public trust, identity, and long-term support.This conversation digs into what the industry gets wrong about communication, why reacting to politics is a losing strategy, and what it would actually take to win the long-term cultural battle.And asking a bigger question: what if the clean energy industry is fighting the wrong battle?Expect to learn:

As we get older, it's one of the toughest decisions we face -- when to stop driving. Colorado has nearly a million people over the age of 65 behind the wheel. And although getting older does not automatically make someone a bad driver, AAA says many people are outliving their ability to drive safely by 7 to 10 years. In Aging Matters, we talk through what to look for and how to have what can be a hard discussion within the family. Then, female genital mutilation affects more than 230 million women worldwide, and doctors in Colorado say the see its lasting impact in their own exam rooms.

I've heard every excuse about why wellness practitioners don't raise their rates. Things like "my patients can't afford it," or "I don't know enough to charge more," or even "what if they leave?" The underlying fear that keeps your prices low isn't about the money. It's about what you believe you actually deserve. I recently raised my fees – by only $20. And I laughed at myself - because I know I'm worth more than that. But that small number told me something important: even I get comfortable with what I'm charging. And comfortable is where practices quietly plateau. In this episode I'm getting real about the actual fears that keep practitioners from raising their rates every so often. The belief that your patients can't afford more is simply not true. The idea that you need to know more before you deserve more isn't true either. People pay for what's important to them. Period. I'll also share the exact language to use with your patients when your prices go up – you'll be able to communicate the change with confidence, no justification or over-explaining. You'll be surprised at how many people won't even bat an eye. Because the value the work you do.  

Every growing leader eventually faces this tension. You know the standard needs to rise. You see the gaps in accountability. You know the team is capable of more. But the moment you think about tightening expectations, a fear creeps in. Will people think I've changed? Will morale drop? Will they stop liking me? In this episode of Recruiting Conversations, we tackle one of the most common leadership fears: how to raise standards without becoming the bad guy. Because the truth is simple. Raising standards doesn't damage culture. Avoiding them eventually does. Episode Breakdown [00:00] The Leadership Tension As teams grow, expectations must grow with them. The challenge is doing it in a way that protects trust while elevating performance. [01:00] The Real Risk Leaders Miss Low or drifting standards slowly erode culture. High performers feel it first. They start asking themselves: Why am I pushing so hard if others are coasting? Over time, resentment builds and excellence becomes optional. The problem isn't raising the bar. The problem is letting it drift. [01:50] Five Ways to Raise Standards Without Becoming the Bad Guy 1. Anchor Standards to Vision If higher expectations feel personal, people will take them personally. But when standards are clearly tied to the vision you've cast, they become purpose-driven. You are not raising the bar because you are frustrated. You are raising it because of what you are building. 2. Apply Standards Universally Nothing destroys morale faster than inconsistent enforcement. If some people get a pass because they are senior, likable, or high producing while others are held accountable, resentment builds quickly. Transparency protects you here. Clear expectations. Clear metrics. Clear behaviors. 3. Communicate Before You Enforce One of the biggest mistakes leaders make is waiting until frustration forces the conversation. Instead, communicate changes proactively. Explain what is changing and why. Give the team a runway to adjust. When people understand what is coming, they are far more likely to embrace it. 4. Pair Higher Standards With Higher Support If expectations rise but support stays the same, it feels like pressure. But when expectations rise alongside coaching, systems, and clarity, it feels like leadership. Support might include: More structured coaching Better playbooks Stronger onboarding Clearer systems The message becomes: I am not just asking more of you. I am equipping you to succeed. 5. Check Your Leadership Identity If your identity is built around being liked, raising standards will always feel uncomfortable. But if your identity is built around helping people grow and protecting the vision, standards become an act of care. Discipline and clarity are not the opposite of kindness. They are expressions of it. Key Takeaways Drifting Standards Slowly Kill Culture – High performers notice it first Vision Justifies Accountability – Standards make sense when tied to purpose Consistency Protects Trust – Uneven enforcement creates resentment Support Must Rise With Expectations – Leadership equips people to succeed Growth Requires Courage – Leadership is not about comfort, it is about progress Here is the reality most leaders eventually discover. When you raise standards, some people will resist. That does not mean you are the bad guy. It means you are revealing alignment. And the people who truly care about excellence, growth, and building something meaningful will respect you for it. Need Help Resetting Standards on Your Team? If you are in a season where you need to raise expectations, realign performance, or reset culture, it can be helpful to talk it through with someone who has helped leaders navigate it before. You can book time directly on Richard's calendar to discuss: How to raise accountability without damaging trust How to communicate new standards clearly How to protect morale while protecting culture How to recruit and retain people who thrive under higher expectations Visit bookrichardnow.com and schedule a time that works for you. Leadership is not about making everyone comfortable. It is about building something meaningful. And sometimes that starts by raising the bar.

And now your hosts.  Allen Hall: Welcome to the Uptime Wind Energy Podcast. I’m your host, Allen Hall. I’m here with Matthew Stead, Rosemary Barnes and Yolanda Padron. And the UK is really gearing up for offshore wind and they’re making some really smart moves and. One of them is, uh, the change in tariffs. So the British offshore wind manufacturers have been fighting really an uphill battle for a long time and for years. The companies that build turbines and components in the UK have faced import tariffs on the materials needed most, which tends to be steels like steel. Uh, cables, specialized parts from overseas all carried a tariff with it. Well, now the federal government has acted to [00:01:00] remove those tariffs on offshore wind equipment. The move is expected to save UK manufacturers tens of millions of pounds every year. And for an industry trying to cut costs and scale up that kind of relief could make the difference between winning. Losing contracts, and I’m surprised the UK has waited this long and I think other countries have the same problem. Obviously the US is taring the heck out of everything at the minute, but uh, a lot of European countries do put tariffs on the raw materials and the components that are used to make wind turbines. That’s not a smart long term move if you’re trying to deploy. Gigawatts of offshore wind.  Matthew Stead: Well, I, I think, uh, the recent events in the world show that energy security and not importing energy is a wonderful thing. And so this completely aligns with that, um, that objective. So I think that’s why we all agree with you, Alan. Allen Hall: Well do, is there a, a. A threshold here where other countries start to do it [00:02:00] and for whatever reason there’s, there’s tends to be tariffs on energy in all forms of it. Right. And there and on steel in particular, that seems to be a big area of concern. Are we gonna start to see some of those come down just to lower the cost of wind turbines and to deploy the middle of the water? ’cause there is a lot of steel in an offshore wind turbine.  Matthew Stead: It’s been like China. I mean China has, you know, a lot of clean energy, low cost energy and it is to their advantage. So I, I think it’s a entirely logical approach and I would’ve thought it’s, if you’re a good on policy, you would definitely be looking at this. Allen Hall: Is this has been a concern of the UK steel industry, which has been diminishing over the years? Uh, so it’s always been a pain point with the uk. They’ve been trying to stand up their own steel industry and forever they had a big steel industry In the uk you think of all the. The steel that was built from late 18 hundreds all the way up to the 1980s and nineties. Uh, but it does sound like you, you gotta pick and choose your battles here. And maybe the UK has [00:03:00] finally said, okay, the, the steel battle is a separate issue within offshore wind, and maybe we gotta do something different.  Matthew Stead: I mean, I think Australia did the same thing ages ago. I mean, we had a car, car industry and you know, we just didn’t have the scale. So, you know, Australia’s picking its battles and um, yeah, I mean, you can’t be good at everything, so you know why not. Uh, get the, the lower cost energy and um, deal with it that way.  Rosemary Barnes: Australia has actually just announced, you know how Australia’s got the policy to support clean energy technology manufacturing in Australia. And they started with, um, solar panels and then they’ve also got something related to battery cells. Well, they just announced wind turbine tower manufacturing, um, which is very simple. The reason why Australia doesn’t have, um, wind turbine tower manufacturing anymore. Is just because we can’t compete on price with Asia, um, in general and China specifically. It’s interesting now to be like, okay, let’s support Australian [00:04:00]manufacturing of wind turbine towers when like there’s no technological barrier. It’s pure cost, cost issues. I would really love to see the Australian government supporting some of the new manufacturing methods and you know, like we’ve seen that Fortescue has invested in. Um, in Ena Lift, the Spanish, Spanish company, um, ESCU has, has bought their tower manufacturing. Um, it’s, it’s like modular, advanced thing that’s gonna work well for remote areas. Otherwise it’s just like, pay a bunch of money so that we can make towers more expensively, but we can sell them at a competitive rate with the Chinese. And I don’t know, to me that’s not very strategic. I always prefer we support the next, the next thing.  Allen Hall: Whatever happened to spiral welding and making towers on site. I think that died about a year or two ago because they were trying it here in the United States and about building ’em at the wind farm. But it sounded like just setting it up to [00:05:00] build the spiral mechanism, the, the cold, uh, forming plus all the welding on top of it. It got to be so expensive to install on site that it was just easier to, to build a central location, which I think they were going for. I’m not even sure that in today’s world, because of the advanced technology in the existing way of manufacturing is so good and inexpensive that it makes any sense to try anything else. It just seems like it’s, there’s just stamping out parts right now.  Rosemary Barnes: Oh, no. I mean, we definitely need new, new methods because we’re really constrained on how tall towers can get if you just wanna make a steel cylinder and ship it out in, you know, whole pieces, like whole cross sections and. Um, put them together vertically. That’s you. You know, like we’ve, we’ve gotten about as tall as we’re gonna get for that because if you want to go any taller, you’re gonna have to start massively increasing the thickness of the tower to make it stiffen up. And that just means way more steel to keep material costs reasonable. You need to increase the diameter, um, beyond [00:06:00] what you can transport on the road. Um, but I think that it’s like the, the, the problem is definitely real and well established, but it’s like with many other. Problems. You know when you start thinking, okay, we’ve got a solution to this problem at that time, there aren’t other solutions, so you’re sure that you know you’re gonna win. And so spiral welding was one of the early ones. Oh, we can fix this problem, but. While they’re developing that and trying to get the capabilities where it needs to be, the cost down, you’ve got a dozen other competing ways that you could solve that problem. And they include like, um, some manufacturers, I think Vestus is one. They’re cutting longitudinally. And so instead of, um, shipping out towers in a single cross section, it’ll be like four. And then they’re bolted together on site. Um, and then Concrete Towers is another one. The Naber Lift, um, thing that I mentioned.  Matthew Stead: Wooden towers.  Rosemary Barnes: Yeah, wooden Wooden towers is, uh, another one I’ve covered, uh, [00:07:00] on my YouTube channel. Matthew Stead: They really should make them out of carbon fiber, shouldn’t they?  Rosemary Barnes: Well, I have, it’s not, it’s You’re saying that as a, as a crazy thing. It’s not, it’s not such a crazy thing. And I have, I have, I have looked into it. You wouldn’t do it outta carbon fiber. You’d do it outta glass. Um, there’s a lot of. There’s a lot of benefits to it, and I actually do believe that we might eventually see like 3D printed glass, um, towers. Allen Hall: No.  Rosemary Barnes: Now we’re just getting into our standard. I, I believe the future might look different to the, to the present day, and Alan never thinks that anything’s ever gonna change.  Matthew Stead: I would’ve. 3D uh, printed concrete towers would have some logic.  Rosemary Barnes: There’s been pilots of 3D printed concrete, concrete towers. I’m, I’m pretty sure GE had a, um, a project on that and there might have been somebody else that did, took it a bit further. It’s all possible. It’s also like concrete towers are, are good, but it is local. Like it depends on having the right materials around locally. ’cause you don’t want to have to transport Hess of. Concrete and water to site. Um, [00:08:00] so yeah, anyway, the point is that like, just because you’ve identified a real problem and you’ve got a solution to it, if you are gonna take five or 10 years to develop your technology and get it to the right price point, you are not gonna be the only, the only solution anymore. So people often like massively overestimate how valuable their idea is. Um, and by the time that it’s ready, it’s not the best solution anymore. So I think like the lesson from that is to just. You need to just move really, really fast and keep your peripheral vision available to see what other technologies are developing in tandem and know when, when to pull the pin. If you are no longer, you no longer have a path to be the best solution, then. Stop. Even if you’ve got 90% of a solution, don’t bother with the last 10%. If you’re never gonna sell it, you know it’s a waste go. Um, let, let all your smart people work on something else. Allen Hall: Delamination and bottom line, failures and blades are [00:09:00]difficult problems to detect early. These hidden issues can cost you millions in repairs and lost energy production. C-I-C-N-D-T are specialists to detect these critical flaws before they become expensive burdens. Their non-destructive test technology penetrates deep to blade materials to find voids and cracks. Traditional inspections, completely. Miss C-I-C-N-D-T Maps. Every critical defect delivers actionable reports and provides support to get your blades. Back in service, so visit cic ndt.com because catching blade problems early will save you millions. Can we pull the pin? On digital twins. I came across another company that was pushing digital twins in the wind turbine space. And I thought, I thought we got rid of that a year ago. Can we stop doing that?  Rosemary Barnes: I, um, in general, like I think a lot of times you see digital twins and I can’t see the point, but there are some applications where you [00:10:00] definitely can,  Matthew Stead: uh, I can add on the digital twin, so the IEC 61 400 dash 32, the new blade o and m standard has in the, in its current draft, it has a section on digital twins. Um, and um, at the last meeting there was a debate as to whether that should be taken out because actually, um, AI, ml, um, all these, um, approaches will just overrun the concept of the traditional digital twin. So, um, I was voting for it to be removed, um, but. Other people didn’t. And so it’s still in the current draft. Yolanda Padron: I am a little bit tired around digital twins at the idea of, like, I’ve seen the title slapped around a lot of things that just aren’t digital twins. And I think that gets even more confusing to a lot of people who are just new to the space or new to the idea that then they, they, they hear digital twin, they have like an idea about it or like, oh, it’s really great, and then they pursue something that just [00:11:00] really isn’t, it’s just a. A monitoring system that they wanted to name something else.  Allen Hall: Yes, that’s it.  Rosemary Barnes: I’ve seen it used well in manufacturing, which is not usually what people are selling it as, but you know, if you have a new composite part, for example, and like a wind turbine blade is a really good example, you design it. And then you can only test it to a certain extent. Um, and you never know exactly what you’ve made, right? And so it’s really hard to kind of relate, like to validate your design tools when not every blade is the same. You know, it’s aiming to be the same. The design is the same every time, but you’re gonna get different results every time you test it. But with some advanced, uh, manufacturing, like my favorite thing to argue with Alan about 3D printing, um, fiber reinforced composites. You can really precisely know exactly what your part looks like all through the structure. You know where every void is. Um, you know where every fiber is and then so you know that exact part. Then you can test that exact part, and you do that with, you know, a dozen of them and you can really [00:12:00] build up a model of what kinds of defects are really, um, you know, doing what to the performance output. And then that can help you to get your quality, um, acceptance to really, like you, you can do the things that matter instead of guessing, oh, okay, yeah, we know that we want this much. Bond line, you can actually know, okay, well like where does that matter? Where doesn’t it? What’s the actual threshold? However, it’s very expensive to do that, and I don’t know that it would make sense for wind turbine blades economically, maybe. Maybe it will one day. I mean, if we can get the quality data that we need, there are big pro quality problems that need to be solved with blades so. I think it’s something to not totally rule out anyway. Matthew Stead: That’s quality control. That’s not a digital twin.  Rosemary Barnes: No, but it is. You have the di you have the make up a digital twin of the, of the part that you’ve made, and then you test it and then you can, um, digitally test the [00:13:00] part that you, the model that you have. So it is a digital twin. Um, it’s just used in a very different way to what digital twins are usually sold as. It’s not at the right level yet for a hundred meter long. Composite wind turbine blade. Um, and also because you would need to destructively test, you know, a, a whole bunch of blades which no one can afford to, to do that.  Yolanda Padron: What if we were to take all the money from like FSAs and stuff that they have to spend, like the OEMs actually have to spend from all of the manufacturing defects from, oh, I tweaked this on this blade type in this. Factory and set it to print and then I tweaked it over here and then I set it to print for like hundreds and hundreds of blades. Um, you know, all of that money spent accumulates too, if we really wanna look at the business case. But eventually, I think maybe it’d be great if it were to work out. I am also.[00:14:00] Hoping  Rosemary Barnes: I, I think it would be a really interesting project to work, and I bet I could. I, I bet that, you know, a good project manager could get, get a positive business case out of it. At the end. One of the problems is that like service, the service department bucket of money is not at all related to the manufacturing bucket of money. Um, so, or the, yeah, the engineering back of the money that, that, that would be a really big problem and make it harder to find a positive business case. But I still think that it’s, um. Yeah, it, there’s a lot of potential there. It would be really interesting project to work on.  Matthew Stead: In terms of the operational phase, I, I think, um, like I said before, the A IML tools. A way more powerful with anomaly detection rather than building a, a fancy digital model, which is not accurate. Um, actually you’re better off looking at the deviations and then the anomalies from what you expect. And I, and there are quite a few people that are doing that, and I, I personally think that’s a way more effective method during the operations and maintenance phase. Rosemary Barnes: But I think that that [00:15:00] would be related. It would be a way to improve what you’re doing there because you said, yeah, digital twin, that’s not. Accurate. So you would need to be accurate. That would be the project to figure out like how you can get accuracy in the right places that you need it. You wouldn’t be able to afford to have accuracy over the entire blade ’cause it’s just way too much data. And then, um, it would help you to figure out like what anoma, what anomalies do we need to look for that are the, the critical ones. I, I think that they would, they would work in partnership. Um, not as two separate things. Can I just plug, because I’m gonna go to China in April and can I just plug that if anyone has any projects, I’ll be there anyway. And um, yeah, so I am sharing the cost of the trip between a few different collaborations and there will be a chance. To, to get me out there to see some manufacturing, et cetera. Would be really excited to go visit some Chinese [00:16:00] manufacturing, some Chinese development. Got a few, few tentative irons in fires at the moment, but would love to have Chinese companies reach out to me and see if we can arrange a collaboration  Allen Hall: as wind energy professionals. Staying informed is crucial, and let’s face it difficult. That’s why the Uptime podcast recommends PES Wind Magazine. PES Wind offers a diverse range of in-depth articles and expert insights that dive into the most pressing issues facing our energy future. Whether you’re an industry veteran or new to wind, PES Wind has the high quality content you need. Don’t miss out. Visit PS wind.com today. It has been a turbulent chapter in offshore wind in America. No doubt about that vineyard wind. The first large scale offshore wind project in the US has faced a crazy difficult road after months of uncertainty, partial construction, and a federally ordered pause. The [00:17:00] project has reached a telling milestone the first. And final shipment of the last blade has departed the port of New Bedford, Massachusetts. And, uh, the blades were just sitting on port for a little while. Uh, Keyside. So this is the last blades or set of blades that’s going out to a turbine. This should sort of wrap it up. I, although I do think there are a couple of blades that may still need some modification updates, something of the sort. But in terms of getting termites out in the water. This should be it. And remember a few months ago, GE and uh, a number of others, vineyard was saying that they’re trying to be done in March. So they’re going to come really close to doing that. And that I know they’re trying to get power all turned on for the site. Because once that happens, it’s really hard for the, uh, the federal government to put any stops on them. I, I guess the question is now, is there any future for offshore wind for [00:18:00]ge now that this is complete and, and it’s kind of off the books, which is what they’ve been trying to do for the last roughly two years, is get it off the books. Matthew Stead: Um, as a positive, I mean. You know, every industry goes through challenges and improve. So I mean, despite all the turmoil, you know, there has to be some good come from it, even though it is been a painful, horrible process. You know, surely there’s some good come from it in terms of improved quality in the future, improved processes, so,  Allen Hall: well, I, I guess that’s the question is are they taking some of these lessons learned and applying them, or are they taking the lessons learned and saying we’re not gonna do that again in, in terms of going down the pathway for offshore wind. Matthew Stead: Well, I think if, uh, if they don’t apply the lessons, that’s sort of, it shows a massive failure of an organization.  Allen Hall: Yeah. It may, I guess it’s a question if it’s a technical failure or a financial failure. Maybe it’s both at the minute until they get everything up and running. But I think the financial side has been. Driving a number of the, of the decisions because the [00:19:00] technical side hasn’t gone all that well.  Matthew Stead: Uh, I think, uh, I think the financial side is an art, which I don’t understand.  Allen Hall: Yeah. Yeah. There’s a lot of moving pieces in financing offshore wind. Now, Vestas has won a, a couple of big. Uh, orders from RWB offshore and Vestus has obviously been in, in some offshore, not at the scale as originally as some of the other OEMs. It does look like the future is bright for Vestus offshore. Is that just gonna continue on that? Vestus is going to invest heavily in offshore and basically dominate that market. Or compete against a a Chinese manufacturer. It doesn’t seem like Siemens is gonna win a lot of offshore contracts off. At least today it doesn’t. You don’t see a lot of noise about that. You see mostly Vestas winning these gigawatt orders. It almost seems inevitable they’re gonna win most of them.  Matthew Stead: Um, I don’t, being long way, way away from where these projects are being made, uh, installed. Um, I don’t have the same sort of insights. [00:20:00] Um, but, um, I mean, obviously yeah, vest, MHI, the previous, um, you know, joint venture with MHI, which especially heavy industries. Um, obviously they’ve come from a, a long pedigree of, um, working offshore, so yeah, I mean, why not? And, um, it seems to be a more of a gradual ramp up, um, and a more orderly, systematic ramp up for offshore. So, yeah. Why, why wouldn’t that work?  Allen Hall: Well, we should hop on the. China discussion because, uh, China’s when turbine makers obviously been trying to build turbines in, in Europe at scale for quite a while now. Uh, and Ying Yang is talking about focusing their efforts on. Germany and they have joined the German Offshore Wind Association BWO. And this is not just a membership cards, uh, that they have subscribed to. It is really like, in a lot of people’s opinion, a strategic signal that Ming Yang intends to compete in the European off.[00:21:00] Market, maybe starting with Germany. Ming Yang was trying to get into Scotland originally, and they were talking about a billion and a half pounds being poured into Scotland to develop factories for offshore wind. Maybe that has come, uh, time has passed and Ming Yang is moving on to Germany. That’s what it reads like to me. Or, or they’re gonna hedge their bets and, and look at both places to see if they can get a foot. Print established in either country.  Matthew Stead: I mean, reputation matters. So you really need to build up a, a footprint. And why would you apply a scatter gun approach? So, I mean, you know, just targeting, you know, one region or, um, you know, makes complete sense to me. So, you know, get, get, get some turbines in the water, get them up and running, get them, get the reliability and the, the reputation, and then, and then go from there. I mean, made complete business sense.  Allen Hall: Well, does that mean that, uh, a mean yang is going to have to lose a little bit of money early on to get some turbines in the water just to demonstrate that they [00:22:00] can do it at scale in Europe? Matthew Stead: I might defer to Rosie, but I would’ve thought they don’t need to, you know, cut costs. I think they’re already cost effective. So you would’ve thought they would just go in, um, with their, their normal product offering and still be successful. Uh, but maybe I’m, I’m on the wrong mark there.  Rosemary Barnes: My understanding is, and I, I don’t know heaps. But my understanding is with Chinese when turbines, that there’s a separate version for the Chinese market, and then if they wanna sell it internationally, then they need to make a new version of it that will pass the IEC, um, standards and the kinds of, you know, certification testing that everybody in those markets is used to. So you’re not always getting, or I don’t think you, I think you’re usually not getting the exact same product. So just because the product exists in China doesn’t mean that it is. Um, without risk in new markets.  Allen Hall: Well, I’m, I’m just curious if ING Yang will have to do a complete IEC certification process because they haven’t done it yet. Uh, is that what you’re saying?  Rosemary Barnes: They do [00:23:00] a, actually a redesign so that they can pass the, um. Certification and then they, yes, they do the whole certification process. However, Mingan hasn’t sold no turbines outside of China. So they have, or it’s not like this is a brand new thing for them that they’ll have to have to, you know, figure out as they go. Um, they’ve, they’ve, you know, I, I, if they haven’t done it for these specific turbines that they’re planning to manufacture in that factory, they’ve at least done it for others and know the process. Um, yeah, and I think we all know it’s not that hard to pass a certification test, so it’s not like a huge obstacle for them. But it will add, it will add cost to the, um, to the process and to the product. Probab probably, you know, there are some design changes that will be needed that will increase the cost of the product. So I don’t think that we’re gonna see, um, you know, Chinese turbines from any, any manufacturer outside of China that are as cheap as the prices that you see within China. Matthew Stead: To be fair though, um, there is a strong, um, Chinese involvement in the IAC committees. So, um, [00:24:00] definitely the, the standards are being used. So, you know, the standards are being used in China, and so I, I don’t think it’s a huge stretch from, you know, the, the domestic product versus the international product.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 69: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: Trump is not qualified to continue as commander in chief. Not for another five minutes. He has to resign at least that role, immediately. Trump is personally LOSING THE WAR IN IRAN. Trump is personally TURNING IRAN into INSTANT PROCESSED VIETNAM. Never mind the politics, never mind his assault on democracy, never mind his instability, never mind his corruption, never mind the details: Just MILITARILY. Just MAKING DECISIONS THAT WILL KILL AMERICAN TROOPS - Trump is NOT qualified to continue as commander in chief and he needs to resign AT LEAST his command TODAY. A week ago Trump mocked England for trying to join the war after he 'won it.' Now Trump is BEGGING England and half a dozen other countries to send ships to save him from this disaster at the Strait of Hormuz. A week ago Trump insisted Iran would NEVER CLOSE the Strait of Hormuz. Now it turns out the Iranians directly WARNED HIM they would close the Strait of Hormuz - warned him in 2019. Because it’s not just a ten dollar gallon of gas that’s coming, it’s a ten dollar STRAWBERRY. Because a third of the world’s fertilizer goes through the Strait of Hormuz, where shipping is down ooh just 97-point-4 percent. Trump is the Commander-in-Creep. Trump is the Commander-in-Cheap. Trump is the Commander-A-Sleep. He needs to turn military command over to somebody else. Because Iran could never in a million years harm this country as much as Trump is harming it right now. THE GOOD NEWS: Dick Durbin has inadvertently produced the succinct message for all Democrats and everybody else opposing Trump and the Republicans' attempt to disembowel our elections, the bill they call with bitter irony 'The Save Act.' As he explains in less than a minute, it will disenfranchise roughly 10 percent of all American voters - and generally speaking the poorer ones. This is the line we must take, and sell. Just when you thought Democratic Senators weren't worth the proverbial price of the oil required to burn them in hell. Thank you, Senator Durbin. B-Block (30:00) SPORTSBALLCENTER: How could a team retire the uniform number of a former player they had to fire as manager because of his personal moral failings ON THE FIELD OF PLAY? And yet the New York Mets are doing exactly that. (35:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Cornelius Rudd warns you of the upcoming 'Raptor.' The CBS tire fire produces hilariously bad stories about David Ellison (and Epstein), Tony Dokoupil (and a new job somewhere else), Joe Rogan, and Jeff Shell (about to get fired from yet another network presidency). And then we have one of the greatest name mistakes of all time when Brian Kilmeade gets Markwayne Mullin's stupid first name completely wrong, Pilgrim. C-Block (46:00) EVERY DOG HAS ITS DAY: I'm making a special request for your help finding a home for two bonded senior Malteses, apparent survivors of a puppy mill, named Mai Tai and Soraya. (49:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: And at the opposite end of the moral spectrum, there's the upcoming 25th anniversary of the day Rupert Murdoch fired me from Fox for following the exact instructions his office gave me.

Kari's life changed suddenly when her husband suffered a devastating brain hemorrhage, leaving her widowed with three young children. In the midst of overwhelming grief, uncertainty, and heartbreak, Kari had to navigate not only the pain of loss but the responsibility of leading her family forward. Yet through that painful season, God began reminding her of something she never expected — that she was still allowed to dream again. Today, Kari shares how God walked with her through the process of doing the necessary “soul work” to heal her mind, will, and emotions. Through intentional healing, faith, and surrender, Kari experienced profound restoration. She is now remarried and part of a beautiful blended family, living proof that God truly does bring beauty from ashes. Kari now has a heart for encouraging women who have experienced grief, heartbreak, or loss to lean into the healing process and trust that God is still writing their story. ✨ In this episode, we talk about: • Navigating the sudden loss of a spouse • Processing grief while raising young children • The importance of doing the deep soul work required for healing • Learning to dream again after devastating loss • How God restores broken places and creates beauty from ashes • Finding hope and purpose after grief If you've experienced loss, heartbreak, or a season that changed your life unexpectedly, this conversation will remind you that healing is possible and restoration is part of God's story for you.

Do you ever worry that taking regular time off from your private practice will cause your business to fall apart? Therapist work-life balance is something I hear from therapists all the time and in today's episode, I'm sharing how to build a private practice that supports you so you can take more time off as a therapist. I walk you through how to prepare your clients before you take time off, how to handle the "but is that fair?" guilt that creeps in when you start setting boundaries around your schedule, and how to use my free tool to run the numbers so you can actually afford the time off you want. I also get real about why not setting these boundaries leads to burnout and resentment toward your clients, and why your cancellation policy and your personal time off policy are two very different things. If you've been wanting more freedom in your private practice but don't know where to start, this episode will show you how to get there.Topics covered on Therapist Work-Life Balance:How one of my clients takes an entire week off every single month from her therapy practiceHaving honest conversations with your current and new clients about your time off without losing their trustWhy some clients might actually welcome your time away and how your modality plays a role in determining what schedule works bestBreaking down why therapist work-life balance doesn't happen by accident and why you need a concrete plan to get thereThe Magic Sheets, my free tool that helps you simulate changes in your business so you can figure out exactly what needs to shift for you to take more time offYour time off policy and your client cancellation policy are two completely separate things, and they do not need to be equal or fairMy story about missing a session with a client and what my supervisor told me that changed how I think about therapist work-life balance and setting boundaries in private practiceResources from this episode:Liberated Business: www.thebadtherapist.coach/liberatedbusinessGet my freebie & join the email list: The Magic SheetsThe Fee Formula: https://www.thebadtherapist.coach/feeformulaConnect with Felicia:Instagram: @the_bad_therapistWebsite: www.thebadtherapist.coachRelated episodes:How to Uphold Your Cancellation Policy Without Feeling Guilty [Ep 19]Quote:"Achieving your goals does not happen by accident.

Millions of professionals are entering retirement each year, yet few are prepared for the emotional transition that comes after leaving a career. In this episode of On the Brink with Andi Simon, Dr. Andi Simon speaks with publishing executive Mary Lou Mackin about the unexpected challenges of retirement and how to redesign the next chapter of life with purpose, structure, and community. Listen to the full episode of the On the Brink with Andi Simon podcast to hear Mary Lou Mackin's full story about redefining life after retirement. Summary In this episode, Mary Lou Mackin shares her personal journey through early retirement and the emotional challenges that followed. After a successful career in publishing, she discovered that stepping away from work left her struggling with identity, structure, and purpose. Through honest reflection and experimentation, she began rebuilding a new life that included community, creativity, and meaningful work. Her story highlights the importance of preparing emotionally—not just financially—for retirement. Key Takeaways Retirement is not simply a financial decision—it is a personal transformation. Many professionals underestimate how much their identity is tied to work. Losing daily structure can create an unexpected emotional void. Purpose in retirement often emerges through experimentation and new connections. Building community intentionally is essential for well-being after leaving work. When Retirement Doesn't Feel Like Freedom For decades, retirement was presented as a reward. Work hard. Save well. Step away. Enjoy the freedom you earned. But for many professionals today, retirement doesn't unfold the way they imagined. In this episode of On the Brink with Andi Simon, I speak with Mary Lou "M.L." Mackin, a longtime publishing executive who believed she had carefully planned her retirement—until she discovered that leaving work was far more complex than she expected. Her story is deeply honest, revealing the emotional and personal realities many professionals face when stepping away from their careers. When Burnout Leads to Retirement After years in a demanding and rewarding publishing career, M.L. reached a breaking point. Burned out and exhausted, she made the decision to retire early at age 62. She did everything right—or so she thought. She discussed the decision with her husband and financial planner. She negotiated a thoughtful transition with her employer, spending six months training her successor. She entered retirement with travel plans, social gatherings, and a long list of activities she had dreamed about during her working years. For a while, it felt wonderful. Then something changed. "The curtain came up," M.L. shared, "and suddenly I was completely lost." What followed was something rarely discussed in retirement planning: an emotional struggle with identity, structure, and purpose. The Hidden Challenges of Retirement As we explored her experience, four powerful themes emerged—patterns I have seen repeatedly while researching my book Rethink Retirement. Identity: Who Am I Without My Career? Many professionals underestimate how deeply their work shapes their identity. M.L. initially believed she wasn't strongly tied to her career. But once she stepped away, she realized how much of her life had revolved around intellectual engagement, collaboration, travel, and professional achievement. Without those anchors, she felt untethered. "I lived and breathed my work," she explained. "Who I was without that—I was lost." Structure: Too Much Freedom Can Be Difficult Retirement promises freedom, but unlimited time can be unsettling. Many people thrive on routines, deadlines, and commitments. When those disappear overnight, a surprising void can emerge. M.L. described mornings when she had already gone to the gym, had coffee, and suddenly realized there was nothing else planned for the day. "I had everything planned for retirement," she said. "Except the life I would actually live in it." Purpose: Why Do I Matter Now? One of the most profound questions people face in retirement is simple but powerful: Why do I matter now? Work often provides meaning and a sense of contribution. When it disappears, individuals must redefine how they add value to the world. For M.L., reconnecting with her publishing network led to freelance work and new creative collaborations. What began as small projects gradually helped restore a sense of purpose. She now finds fulfillment mentoring others and exploring ways to help people share their stories in the "third act" of life. Community: Rebuilding Connections Another unexpected challenge of retirement is the loss of daily social interaction. Many professionals discover that their primary community existed at work. To rebuild connection, M.L. made intentional efforts—something she admits was difficult at first. She began conversations at her gym, joined a writing group at her local library, and participated in online discussions with other women navigating retirement transitions. These small steps led to new friendships and a supportive network. How Do You Find Purpose After Leaving a Career? Looking back, M.L. wishes someone had challenged her to think about retirement differently—not just financially, but emotionally and personally. Her advice is simple but powerful: Prepare emotionally, not just financially Think about how you will structure your days Be honest about how much your work shapes your identity Seek community and conversation with others on the same journey Retirement, she realized, isn't simply an exit from work. It is a transition into a new stage of life that requires intention, reflection, and experimentation. Why Do Some People Struggle After Retirement? The most powerful insight from our conversation may be this: Retirement is not about stopping—it's about choosing what comes next. As we live longer and healthier lives, the traditional concept of retirement no longer fits many people's realities. Instead, this stage of life can become an opportunity for reinvention, creativity, and renewed purpose. M.L.'s story reminds us that the journey may include unexpected detours—but it can also lead to meaningful new paths. As you reflect on your own future, consider this question: Where do you still want to matter? Because retirement isn't the end of the story. It's the beginning of what comes next.
