En medio de la revisión del T-MEC, Patrick Lozada de National Electrical Manufacturers Association pone el foco en lo que realmente importa a las empresas: una integración industrial que ya concentra el 40% de las exportaciones del sector en Norteamérica, pero que enfrenta retos claros como un código eléctrico en México sin actualizar desde 2012, en un contexto de presión por el tema de China y el boom de la IA. Dice que hay una gran oportunidad, pero aprovecharla exige modernizar regulación, reducir costos comerciales y coordinar mejor la estrategia regional.

In this episode of Poetic Resurrection, Sonia shares her poem Important to Me—a deeply personal reflection on boundaries, emotional independence, and the journey back to self-worth. Blending poetry, psychology, and spirituality, this episode explores how external expectations can shape identity, and how reclaiming personal truth becomes an act of healing. Sonia reflects on self-preservation, the fear that can keep us stuck, and the quiet strength required to move forward. This episode is for anyone learning to release what no longer belongs to them and step into a life aligned with what truly matters.

This episode is dedicated to all the brave, courageous souls around the world who continue to stand for human dignity, even when doing so requires quiet strength, resilience, and the willingness to walk a less familiar path. In this January episode of Poetic Resurrection, Sonia Iris Lozada reads her poem Courage and reflects on the human fear of change, inherited beliefs, and the quiet bravery required to walk forward while the past still burns beside us. Grounded in psychology, ecology, and lived experience — not politics or religion — this episode offers a contemplative look at letting go, planting something new, and choosing what we carry into the future. Poetic Resurrection is a space for writing, reflection, and acceptance. No answers offered — only an invitation to walk.

In this episode of Poetic Resurrection, Sonia Iris Lozada reflects on the many voices that surround us in today's world and the importance of returning to the quiet truth within. Through her reflection On Voices Outside of Us, she invites us to pause, breathe, and rediscover the steady voice that belongs to us alone. The episode then shifts into Sonia's poem Esperando — originally written in Spanish and featured in her poetry collection Inspire Me: Raw. The poem explores memory, longing, and the crossroads between past and present, weaving imagery of desert landscapes, childhood echoes, and cultural reflection. Together, the reflection and poem create a meditation on presence, resilience, and the gifts hidden in waiting. Reflect with Sonia: - Which voices outside of you are shaping your path? - How does your own voice return you to stillness? - What truths are quietly forming in your waiting?

Pedro Sanchez de Lozada, CEO of Canid, highlights the significant financial risks that pediatricians face in managing their vaccine inventory. There are administrative burdens associated with ordering, patient demand, tracking, reporting, and filing for insurance reimbursement. The Canid platform was designed to be a vaccine-as-a-service model, removing risk and administrative work from pediatric practices, allowing small and independent practices to achieve economies of scale, and freeing up more time to spend with patients and their parents. Pedro explains, "When managing a vaccine program, the expectation is that the pediatrician will buy and maintain the stock in their office until a patient comes in and gets vaccinated. So, the refrigeration, the temperature logging, the stocking up, and the cost of the vaccine always fall as liability to the pediatrician. And what happens there is that you have a fairly small margin on these vaccines. Now I'm sure we're going to get into this, but when people say pediatricians make money on vaccines, they're usually cherry-picking." "But in reality, as a pediatrician, you actually have to stock all the vaccines. And not all of them have decent margins. Some of them have negative margins. And so as a portfolio, you end up making a pretty thin margin, and then that doesn't even include all the different challenges you might have along the way. So let's take an example: a vaccine that expires or is dropped, and unfortunately needs to be wasted." "So the way that we like to think about it is we want to make it so that the pediatrician can just give vaccines. That's all they need to think about. And what that means is, let's just imagine for a second, a refrigerator that automatically restocks itself, and you just take out the vaccines, you give it to a child, and you go on your merry way. That's obviously a little bit of an idealistic way of viewing things, but it's the experience that we want to accomplish." #Canid #Vaccinations #Pediatricians #Vaccines #PediatricVaccineManagement canid.io Download the transcript here

In this episode of Poetic Resurrection, Sonia Iris Lozada shares her poem “Outcast” from her book Inspire Me: Awakening Dreams. Inspired by the dandelion—so often dismissed as a weed yet full of nourishment and healing—Sonia reflects with emotion and compassion on what it means to be misunderstood, overlooked, and yet quietly resilient. While the poem was born from feeling, listeners may also hear echoes of psychology within it. Carl Jung's shadow self reminds us that what we push away may hold hidden medicine, and the study of resilience speaks to the strength of rising again after being uprooted. Themes: - Misunderstanding and hidden value - Emotional resilience in the face of rejection - Jung's shadow as a lens for integration - Nature as metaphor for the human spirit

Thanks in advance for supporting Pete's one-man show, DIY podcast and extensive reading, research, editing, and promoting to keep this independent podcast pumping out high-quality content! This month's Patreon bonus episode features an exploration of flawed characters, protagonists who are too real in their actions, and horror and noir as being where so much good and realistic writing takes place. Pete has added a $1 a month tier for “Well-Wishers” and Cheerleaders of the Show. This is a passion project, a DIY operation, and Pete would love for your help in promoting what he's convinced is a unique and spirited look at an often-ignored art form. The intro song for The Chills at Will Podcast is “Wind Down” (Instrumental Version), and the other song played on this episode was “Hoops” (Instrumental)” by Matt Weidauer, and both songs are used through ArchesAudio.com. Please tune in for Episode 294 with Wright Thompson, a senior writer for ESPN, contributing writer to the Atlantic, and the New York Times bestselling author of Pappyland The Cost of These Dreams. The Barn, a captivating story of the tragedy of Emmett Till's racist murder, is out in paperback on the day the episode airs, September 9.
