Deep Patel, the Founder and CEO of GigaWatt, has spent nearly two decades addressing this challenge by helping people generate and store their own electricity using solar panels and battery storage.Deep started GigaWatt in 2006, bootstrapping the company from his parents' garage into a thriving enterprise with annual revenues exceeding $60 million since 2019. His mission is simple but powerful: to empower individuals with energy independence and reduce reliance on traditional utility grids. “We are bringing power back to the people,” Deep explained. “By having their own solar panels and battery storage, they can avoid the grid most of the time.”Solar energy isn't a new idea, but its accessibility has transformed dramatically. Deep noted, “Fast forward to 2026, we're finally at the stage where solar panels and battery storage are affordable for the normal person.” This shift makes it possible for more households to achieve grid independence, even as electricity rates continue to soar.One key factor in GigaWatt's success is its user-friendly software, enhanced with AI tools. Designed to simplify energy management, it optimizes solar and battery usage for maximum savings. “The software from the solar industry is written by engineers for engineers,” Deep said. “We're making it so a layman can understand how to operate this system—without an electrical engineering degree.”GigaWatt is currently raising funds through a regulated crowdfunding campaign on StartEngine, inviting people to invest in its mission. Deep sees this as an opportunity for supporters of clean energy to join the movement. “There's a lot of people just like you, Devin, that believe in solar and storage and would want to put some money into it,” he explained.By combining technical innovation with a clear social mission, Deep and GigaWatt are empowering homeowners to take control of their energy future. This is more than a business—it's a movement aimed at creating a cleaner, greener world.tl;dr:Deep Patel founded GigaWatt to help people achieve energy independence with solar and battery systems.GigaWatt has grown to over $60 million in annual revenues since its 2006 garage-based launch.Deep highlighted the affordability of solar technology, making it accessible to more homeowners.GigaWatt's AI-enhanced software simplifies solar energy management for everyday users.The company is raising funds on StartEngine, inviting supporters to invest in clean energy innovation.How to Develop Persistence and Positivity As a SuperpowerDeep describes his superpower as persistence and maintaining a positive mindset. He shared, “Being able to continue to evolve and navigate the changing environments… and showing up every day in a positive mindset is really our superpower.” Deep emphasized focusing on incremental progress rather than obsessing over immediate results, saying, “Just chip away every day and continue to march forward when times get hard.” His resilience has been critical in sustaining GigaWatt's success over two decades, despite the ups and downs of the solar industry.Deep shared how he navigated industry downturns that left others struggling. When faced with a challenging year, he invested his own resources into the business, even as cash flow projections looked bleak. He described it as “double downing in a time of fear” and credited his belief in GigaWatt's mission for getting through the tough times. His persistence during temporary storms ensured long-term success and growth.Tips for Developing Persistence and Positivity:Focus on small, daily wins to maintain momentum.Recognize that tough times are temporary, like storms that will eventually pass.Stay mission-driven rather than fixating on short-term results.Maintain a positive mindset by focusing on progress, not perfection.View challenges as opportunities to adapt and grow.By following Deep's example and advice, you can make persistence and positivity a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

Providing Medical Care During Civil Unrest 1. Opening Brief introduction of the episode Define civil unrest contexts: Protests Riots Mass demonstrations Politically charged gatherings Why medical care becomes complicated in these environments: EMS access delays Crowd density Law enforcement operations Environmental hazards Emphasize guiding principles: Personal safety first Situational awareness Know your limits 2. Understanding the Operational Environment What makes civil unrest medically unique Unpredictable crowd movement Law enforcement presence and tactics Noise, confusion, and sensory overload Limited ambulance access Common operational constraints Blocked streets Limited lighting Communication disruption Delayed EMS response Situational awareness basics Know entry and exit routes Stay on the edge of crowds Avoid getting boxed in 3. The Most Common Injuries Seen in Civil Unrest Blunt Trauma Common causes: Falls Being pushed or trampled Baton strikes Thrown objects These injuries can range from minor bruising to serious head injury or internal bleeding. What to look for Pain or swelling Deformity suggesting fracture Difficulty moving a limb Head injury symptoms: Confusion Vomiting Severe headache Loss of consciousness Basic treatment Move the person out of the crowd if possible Apply ice or cold pack if available Immobilize injured limbs with a sling or improvised splint For suspected head injury, keep the person still and monitor mental status If symptoms worsen (confusion, vomiting, severe pain), they need EMS evaluation Key reminder for listeners Blunt trauma in chaotic environments often gets ignored — but head injuries and internal bleeding can worsen over time. Lacerations Common causes: Broken glass Debris Improvised projectiles What to look for External bleeding Deep cuts with visible tissue Embedded debris Bleeding that soaks through clothing Basic treatment Put on gloves if available Apply direct pressure with gauze or cloth If bleeding continues, use a compression bandage For severe extremity bleeding, apply a tourniquet Cover the wound with a clean dressing Additional considerations Do not remove deeply embedded objects If the wound is large or continues bleeding, the patient needs hospital care Key reminder The vast majority of life-threatening bleeding can be controlled withpressure and time. Respiratory Irritants Common exposures: Tear gas (CS) Pepper spray (OC) Smoke from fires These agents cause severe irritation but are usually temporary. Common symptoms Burning eyes Tearing Skin irritation Coughing Shortness of breath Disorientation Basic treatment Move the person to fresh air immediately Encourage slow breathing Flush eyes with copious water or saline Remove contaminated clothing if heavily exposed Avoid rubbing eyes or skin Important notes Oils, lotions, or milk can sometimes trap irritants against the skin Most symptoms improve within 15–30 minutes once exposure stops Red flags requiring EMS Severe breathing difficulty Asthma attack Persistent confusion Heat and Dehydration Common causes: Long hours outdoors Heavy clothing or gear Stress and exertion Limited access to water Symptoms Dizziness Weakness Headache Nausea Muscle cramps Heavy sweating Basic treatment Move the person out of the sun or crowd Have them sit or lie down Provide water or electrolyte fluids Use cooling measures Shade Wet cloths Fanning Red flags for heat stroke Confusion Collapse Hot dry skin Seizures Heat stroke is a medical emergency. Psychological Stress Reactions Crowd environments can trigger intense emotional reactions. Common presentations: Panic attacks Hyperventilation Acute anxiety Disorientation What to look for Rapid breathing Shaking Crying Feeling unable to escape the crowd Basic treatment Move the person to a quieter, safer space Speak calmly and reassure them Encourage slow breathing Inhale through the nose Exhale slowly through the mouth Help them regain orientation and control Often, simply removing the person from the chaotic environment dramatically improves symptoms. “The key point here is that most injuries in these environments are not exotic trauma cases. They're the same things EMS treats every day — bleeding, falls, heat illness, and panic — but they're happening in a chaotic environment where help may take longer to arrive.” 4. Basic Medical Kit for High-Risk Gatherings Emphasize compact, discreet gear. Essentials Nitrile gloves Gauze / compression bandage Tourniquet Saline or water for eye irrigation Simple airway mask Electrolyte packets Small flashlight Optional but useful Chest seal Trauma shears Space blanket Eye protection Basic first aid medications Practical considerations Avoid large visible medical packs Keep supplies distributed in pockets Maintain mobility 5. Working Around Law Enforcement and EMS Key points: Identify yourself if providing care Follow lawful orders immediately Avoid interfering with police operations Know when to disengage Discuss that: EMS may stage until scenes are secure Civilian aid may be temporary bridging care 6. When NOT to Intervene (Important Ethical Section) Situations where civilians should not attempt treatment: Active violence nearby Crowd crush risk Presence of chemical agents without protection Situations beyond training Reinforce: “You cannot help anyone if you become a patient.” 7. Closing Reinforce three takeaways: Personal safety comes first Simple medical skills save lives Preparation matters Invite listeners to: Get first aid training Carry basic medical kits Learn situational awareness   Medical Gear Outfitters Use Code CIVILIANMEDICAL for 10% off   Skinny Medic - @SkinnyMedic | @skinny_medic | Medical Gear Outfitters   Bobby - @rstantontx | @bobby_wales

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo and Dan Wentzel have a candid conversation about what happens when life gets in the way of progress.

They unpack why resistance is inevitable when you commit to a goal, how to remove emotional pressure from the process, and why consistency always matters more than perfection.   The episode also dives into a subtle but powerful mindset shift when speaking with storage owners: approaching conversations with curiosity and service instead of pressure and expectation.   This conversation serves as a real-time case study in what to do when progress stalls — and how to reset quickly so momentum keeps building.   ⸻   You'll Learn How To: Respond productively when life disrupts your plans Remove guilt and negative emotions when progress slows Maintain forward momentum even after losing rhythm Approach seller conversations with curiosity instead of pressure Focus on progress rather than perfection in the acquisition process Use mindset shifts to improve confidence and communication   ⸻   What You'll Learn in This Episode: [0:00] Why approaching seller calls with curiosity changes everything [1:11] Expecting resistance whenever you commit to a big goal [1:43] How life disruptions can derail momentum [2:09] Turning setbacks into learning opportunities [3:30] Why guilt and frustration don't help you move forward [5:12] Resetting your rhythm after losing momentum [7:48] The mindset shift from "what can I get?" to "how can I help?"

That is the question John Tabis asked before launching The Bouqs Company. By recognizing that both flower farmers and consumers were being ignored by the traditional floral industry, he found a unique way to disrupt the market.In today's episode, John shared how his company deploys technology directly at the source. Instead of flowers passing through five or six layers of middlemen, farmers cut, prep and pack the product to send directly to the consumer. This model drastically reduces waste and increases freshness.“We thought, what an amazing opportunity to build a new supply chain that simplifies that supply chain, uses technology to deliver the freshest, high quality, sustainable blooms,” John explained.Since launching with just a few thousand dollars in the bank, the company has generated over a billion dollars in gross revenue. Customers love the value and they deeply resonate with the brand's commitment to sustainability.Now, John is taking community engagement to the next level. The Bouqs Company is currently raising capital through a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign. This allows loyal customers and everyday investors to own a piece of the business.John noted that turning a customer base into an investor base creates a massive crowd of brand promoters. When people invest in a company they love, they naturally share its mission with friends and family.The current regulation crowdfunding campaign is capped at $5 million and is filling up quickly. The funds will be used to expand their physical retail footprint nationwide to offer faster delivery and fully arranged vases.If you want to support a sustainable business model and own a stake in a rapidly growing brand, this is a remarkable opportunity to align your investments with your values.tl;dr:John Tabis revolutionized the floral industry by connecting sustainable farms directly to everyday consumers.The Bouqs Company reduces waste and ensures fresher flowers by eliminating unnecessary supply chain middlemen.The company is currently raising up to $5 million through a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign.John relies on his superpower of unending faith to navigate the toughest entrepreneurial challenges successfully.In today's episode we learned that combining strong convictions with flexibility drives massive business growth.How to Develop Unending Faith As a SuperpowerJohn defines his superpower as having unending faith. He describes it as “the ability to believe without evidence” and notes that as an entrepreneur he consistently has faith in a better future. He believes that “there's a better step ahead” and that “a better version of ourselves, of our companies, of our products [is] around the corner.” This unwavering belief serves as the absolute cornerstone of his journey as a founder.A powerful example of this faith occurred during the company's Series B fundraising round about eight or nine years ago. The business was burning cash and was literally weeks away from running completely out of money. John's VP of finance asked when they should pull the emergency cord to start cutting costs. Relying on his unending faith, John told him not to worry. Just four or five days before their cash ran out, they received a term sheet and successfully closed the capital needed to keep the business thriving.To develop unending faith as a personal strength, John offers the following actionable tips:Maintain very strong convictions but hold them loosely so you can adapt when necessary.Be 100 percent sure of your vision until you receive clear evidence that you need to pivot.Remain highly flexible and willing to shift your strategy dramatically based on market feedback.Iterate your way to the right solution instead of getting trapped by narrow-minded tunnel vision.By following John's example and advice, you can make unending faith a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

If you recruit long enough, you will hear this phrase more than any other. I'm happy where I am. For many leaders, that statement feels like the end of the conversation. They back off, close the file, and move on. But the best recruiters understand something important. That sentence usually means not right now, not never. In this episode of Recruiting Conversations, I walk through how to respond in a way that builds trust, opens curiosity, and keeps the relationship alive without pressure. Because recruiting the right way is not about pushing someone to leave where they are today. It is about building a relationship that positions you as the leader they think about when circumstances eventually change. Episode Breakdown [00:00] The Phrase Every Recruiter Hears "I'm happy where I am" is often the most polite way someone says they are not interested today. The mistake many leaders make is assuming that means the door is permanently closed. [01:15] What They Are Really Saying When someone says they are happy, it usually means: They are not in enough pain to move yet They do not see a compelling reason to explore They do not know you well enough to trust the conversation They have not yet heard a vision that feels bigger than their current experience Your job is not to challenge their happiness. Your job is to build a relationship that keeps the door open. [01:40] Step 1: Acknowledge and Affirm Start by respecting where they are. A simple affirmation disarms resistance and communicates that you are not trying to pressure them. Example mindset: Being happy in this industry is a good thing. It tells me they have built something meaningful. [02:10] Step 2: Shift From Change to Curiosity The goal is not to make them dissatisfied. The goal is to make them curious. Instead of pushing a move, ask questions that invite reflection. When was the last time you had a conversation about what is possible long term, not about making a move? Questions like this open dialogue without creating pressure. [02:50] Step 3: Position Value Without the Pitch Many leaders make the mistake of immediately launching into a sales pitch. Instead, offer a simple preview of what you are building. Share the vision, the leadership philosophy, or the kind of environment you are creating. This positions you as someone worth knowing, not just someone trying to recruit them. [03:30] Step 4: Follow Up With Purpose Do not treat the conversation as a closed loop. Maintain connection with meaningful follow-up. Share insights, invite them to leadership conversations, or include them in masterminds and events. People who are happy today may not be happy tomorrow. Markets shift. Leadership changes. Opportunities evolve. And when that moment comes, they will remember the leader who stayed present. Key Takeaways "I'm Happy" Is Not a Closed Door It is simply a signal that the timing is not right yet. Respect Builds Trust Faster Than Pressure Affirming someone's current situation shows integrity. Curiosity Opens Conversations Thoughtful questions create engagement without resistance. Vision Attracts More Than Persuasion Preview the environment you are building instead of pitching a move. Consistency Wins the Long Game Meaningful follow-up ensures you are the first person they think of when things change. Recruiting is not about convincing someone to leave where they are today. It is about building relationships that position you as the right leader when their next chapter begins. Want Help Building These Conversations? If you want help scripting early-stage recruiting conversations or creating a follow-up cadence that builds trust instead of pressure, I would love to help. You can schedule time directly on my calendar and we will walk through: How to handle early recruiting objections How to structure curiosity-driven conversations How to build a long-term recruiting relationship strategy How to follow up with value instead of pressure Visit bookrichardnow.com and grab a time that works for you. Let's build a recruiting system that keeps the right doors open and positions you as the leader people call when they are ready for their next chapter.

Most business owners focus on making money… but almost no one teaches them what to actually DO with the profits.In this episode, Scott Carpenter breaks down a simple tactical system every entrepreneur should implement immediately to protect, save, and grow their profits.Think of this as the “Margot Robbie in the bathtub” explanation from The Big Short — but applied to building real wealth as a business owner.Scott and Andy walk through the exact cash flow framework Scott personally used to build financial security, invest in real estate, and create multiple cash-flowing assets.This episode is short, tactical, and something you can start implementing today.

Why do some conversations spiral into drama while others stay calm and productive? In this episode, we explore what I call The Carolyn Bessette Method — a set of communication principles inspired by the quiet composure of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy. Carolyn became known not only for her style but for the way she carried herself under constant public scrutiny. She rarely over-explained herself. She didn't react emotionally to public speculation. And she maintained a calm presence even in difficult situations. That kind of composure offers a powerful lesson for relationships. In this episode, we walk through 10 rules for maintaining calm authority in conversations, including how to: • Stop over-explaining yourself • Correct misrepresentation without escalating • Refuse emotional bait • Speak in observations instead of accusations • Maintain dignity during difficult discussions Because the goal in communication isn't to win an argument. It's to maintain clarity, composure, and respect. Want to Go Deeper?

Would you like to have an unstoppable relationship? On this week's episode of Love University, we explore one of the most decisive factors in long-term happiness and relational success: the psychological level of the people you choose to build your life with. Relationships are not neutral. They either strengthen your inner world or weaken it. They either expand your LoveQ or drain it. The difference is not based on status, wealth, intelligence, or surface chemistry. It comes down to emotional maturity and inner development. Here are four core principles for creating unstoppable relationships: Learn to Recognize Invincibility Seekers Invincibility Seekers are individuals committed to inner growth. They work on their thoughts, emotional reactions, and character. They cultivate compassion, patience, confidence, and integrity. When you're around them, you feel steadier and more grounded. These individuals do not need to dominate conversations or prove superiority. Their strength is calm and contained. They handle conflict with maturity. They're kind whether they gain something from you or not. Their presence encourages you to become better without pressuring you to perform. Over time, being aligned with Invincibility Seekers elevates your own psychological level and deepens your capacity for lasting love. See Through the Masks of Negativity Seekers Negativity Seekers are people who complain, gossip, and maintain a negative outlook on life. Don't be fooled. They can appear attractive and charming at first. They may be witty, confident, and engaging. Yet beneath the surface, there is often chronic criticism, entitlement, and emotional volatility. Their kindness frequently depends on what they are receiving. Watch how someone behaves when they can no longer get something from you. Do they remain respectful, or do they become dismissive and hostile? Negativity Seekers often thrive on behind the back talk, argument, and drama because it gives them stimulation and a false sense of power. Over time, their instability drains the emotional reserves of those closest to them. Recognizing this early protects your peace and keeps you from being in a relationship that can cause you long-term damage. Protect Your Psychological Integrity It is not always possible to avoid Negativity Seekers. They may be coworkers, relatives, or even romantic partners. In these cases, emotional boundaries become essential. You must learn to separate your internal state from their external behavior. Refuse to accept anger, gossip, or criticism as emotional currency. When negativity is offered, decline it internally. Maintain composure and steadiness. When you refuse to absorb their emotional turbulence, you conserve your energy and preserve your Invincibility. Your inner power remains intact because you don't sacrifice your integrity for temporary approval or excitement. Attract Your Own Level of Development People connect at similar psychological levels. Insecurity attracts control. Criticism attracts defensiveness. Emotional immaturity attracts chaos. If you repeatedly encounter draining relationships, examine your own internal standards. As you strengthen your self-respect, emotional control, and self-compassion, your relational landscape changes. You stop tolerating behavior that diminishes you. You begin attracting individuals who operate from stability, growth, and generosity. Invincibility Seekers recognize one another because they share a commitment to development and integrity. When you become the kind of person who values growth and emotional strength, you naturally align with others who do the same. An unstoppable relationship with an Invincibility Seeker is your greatest prize. Start developing one today and your life will rise with love and joy.

I have been feeling the tug to share my personal experience with depression for quite a while. It may surprise you to hear that I have struggled with depression. I'm a pretty upbeat gal! Well, it surprised me too. In today's podcast, I share my personal story with depression and how it affects every area of your life. Here are 5 tips I gave myself and share with clients about how depression affects organization. 1. Give yourself grace. I cannot even put into words how depression zapped me of every shred of energy to do ANYTHING. And the thought of tackling an organization project was SO overwhelming. My "will power" got up and went - AWAY! 2. Get a friend to help you. Another friend's perspective, energy and motivation are contagious and can help you push through when you just want to watch TV. Used strategically, friends can help you get organized and stay functioning when your own initiative is low. Over 50% of the Organize 365 clients call us in to help because they just can't do the organizing themselves in their depressed state. 3. Pick ONE area and COMPLETE it before moving on no matter how long it takes. Slow and steady wins the race! Your home did not become a "mess" overnight, and it won't get organized overnight either. One step at a time. Pick an area where you can get a quick win and start there: Your night stand Your dresser The car The Master Closet The key is to MAINTAIN that area when you tackle area #2. The Productive Home Solution™ is ordered in a way so the areas you organize will stay organized as you move on to the next area of your home. 4. Acknowledge your limitations. I know how frustrated you are! Knowing what I USED to be able to do made me even MORE depressed when I couldn't seem to tackle even the basics when I was depressed. If it's a bad day... it's OK! You have time to get organized and take care of yourself. And when your desire is beyond your physical ability - hire help. 5. Surround yourself with positive people. I know it's easier to say than do, but I always felt better when I made myself go OUT and BE with people, even though I didn't want to. I can't even tell you how many times we will be laughing with clients and then they say, "I can't believe how fun you make organizing!" "I haven't been able to laugh like that in a long time." "If I knew how quickly you could get this organized I wouldn't have waited so long to call." and our favorite. "I can't believe there are people who actually LIKE to organize!"

“Send Coach John a message”I came across another post that helped me to “throw another log on the fire” of helping to encourage me to keep going. To believe in myself just a bit more after seeing this post. I hope there is that same encouragement for you as well. The post came from Seek Wiser (@SeekWiser_) and it was this: “The best part of being authentic is that there is no image to maintain.  You will delight some and disturb others, and none of it will concern the truth of you being.” The world is so desperate for authenticity. It's so rare and that rarity is the key. It will connect you to others that notice it and are intrigued to learn more about you maybe, just to see if they can be themselves too. To me it relieves a lot of pressure. Keep finding those things that fire you up and keep looking to have those things, help you be a difference maker for others!  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

This inaugural episode of the CardioNerds Pulmonary Embolism (PE) Series explores the evolution of acute PE care. Dr. Ibrahim Zahid, Dr. Dinu Balanescu, and Dr. Billy Joe Mullinax join guest expert Dr. Kenneth Rosenfield to discuss the shifting landscape of PE management. Pulmonary embolism (PE) remains a leading cause of cardiovascular mortality and a frequent diagnostic challenge, often masquerading as myocardial infarction or a benign illness. Over the past decade, PE care has evolved from anticoagulation-only strategies to nuanced, risk-stratified, multidisciplinary management. Modern approaches integrate hemodynamics, biomarkers, and advanced imaging to guide therapy, including catheter-directed interventions and large-bore thrombectomy. The Pulmonary Embolism Response Team (PERT) model addresses historical gaps by coordinating rapid, multispecialty decision-making and standardizing care pathways. The PERT Consortium further advances PE care through education, research, and the world's largest PE registry, while fostering leadership and research opportunities for trainees. Despite advances, long-term outcomes and post-PE syndromes remain important areas for future investigation. Audio editing by CardioNerds Academy intern, student doctor, Pace Wetstein.

Pearls PE is a “master masquerader”—maintain suspicion for atypical presentations like myocardial infarction, heart failure, flu, or anxiety. Multidisciplinary management mediated through pulmonary embolism response teams improves outcomes and standardizes care. Risk stratification integrates hemodynamics, biomarkers, and imaging. Advanced therapies have expanded beyond anticoagulation. Long‑term follow‑up and post‑PE syndrome need more research. Notes Notes: Notes drafted by Dr. Ibrahim Zahid. 1. How has the clinical approach to PE changed over the past decade? PE is the third leading cause of cardiovascular death and historically under‑recognized. Symptoms mimic MI, HF, asthma, syncope, and more.PE is a silent killer, and it should be recognized more as a cause of spontaneous cardiac arrest. Where life threatening disease like stroke which is owned by neurological specialists and MI is primarily managed by cardiac specialists, PE is an entity without a professional home. The PERT Consortium brings the specialties together for PE care. 2. Ten years ago, a 58-year-old patient with a large bilateral PE, RV dilation, and positive biomarkers might have been managed with anticoagulation and close observation alone. Today, with evolving—but still uneven—data on advanced therapies, PE care feels far more nuanced and highly dependent on where you practice. What are the major gaps in traditional PE management that clinicians should recognize, and what care pathways should they be aware of across different hospital systems? Care has shifted from anticoagulation‑only to multidisciplinary approaches like catheter directed thrombectomy. Risk‑based pathways and the use of CT angiogram has improved early recognition. Risk stratification tools must be used as tools for early recognition of intermediate risk PE. Untreated PE leads to chronic complications like chronic thromboembolic disease and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension, which requires long term clinic follow up. 3. What is the role of risk stratification tools such as PeSI, sPeSI scores, cardiac biomarkers, and imaging findings in PE, and how do they guide treatment decisions in real world practice? Integrate vitals (blood pressure and heart rate), biomarkers (troponin, pro-BNP), RV/LV ratio assessment, acid‑base status, and scores. Tools include PESI, sPESI, BOVA, HESTIA, FAST, Geneva, NEWS, shock index. Vitals, lactate, acid-base status, and tools like NEWS or shock index track clinical evolution. PESI/sPESI estimate 30-day mortality and help identify low-risk patients who may be candidates for early discharge or outpatient therapy. Clinical judgment matters—scores don't fully capture clot burden, trajectory, or bleeding risk. 4. How was the pulmonary embolism response team created, and since its creation, what evidence or outcome data became available to support the PERT model? Originated after a sentinel case at MGH: A young, pregnant woman in her 30s, who collapsed at home, underwent thrombectomy, and had to be on ECMO for a few days. The case brought cardiology, cardiac surgeons and critical care physicians together for planning and improvement in her health, which was rewarding. Thereby, it was decided to bring specialties involved in PE care together to create a response team. The name of the team, Pulmonary Embolism Response Team (PERT), was coined by Richard Channick in the first meeting. Posters were set up all over the hospital to call a centralized line when an acute PE is recognized A meeting was held to present the concept of putting together a consortium, with development of action items and a PERT database. Enabled rapid multidisciplinary input using early teleconferencing tools. 5. Given concerns about having too many ‘cooks in the kitchen' during the initial PE call—especially with rotating teams—how can institutions reconcile workflow complexity with standardized pathways in a way that meaningfully supports and justifies the added burden on frontline clinicians? Every hospital's PERT is different, catering to their needs and workflow At least two disciplines are needed to make a PERTData is currently being collected to guide further on how the workflow can be standardized Most importantly, the team brings in resources that were not available prior to PERT formation. 6. What are the main goals of the PERT consortium, and how does it support clinicians and institutions involved? To improve care and improve outcomes for patients with PE Expand education, refine algorithms, standardize care with Centers of Excellence. Maintain the largest PE registry for research and outcomes improvement. 7. Beyond global networking, shared learning from successful systems, and the pathway toward Center of Excellence designation, what additional benefits can clinicians and health systems gain by participating in the PERT Consortium? The ability to learn from other systems, the ability to share experiences. Allow people to develop their professional careers like leadership experience, becoming a member of the trainee council Initiate projects and receive funding for your ideas 8. For trainees interested in pulmonary embolism care, how can a trainee be a champion at their institution? Does PERT provide assistance and how can they really contribute meaningfully even before becoming a fellow/attending? Medical students and residents interested in PE should reach out to the consortium and the consortium will hook you up with the correct mentors who can nurture you along. Listen to the podcasts. Participate with your local PERT team PERT wants involvement of people who are social media savvy to help spread the word on PE. Top three take-away points from this episode Acute PE care has advanced and multiple treatment modalities for acute PE including catheter directed therapy, large bore thrombectomy, are becoming standard of care. Multidisciplinary models like PERT improve coordination and outcomes. Trainees play a vital role in advancing PE care through involvement, research, and education References Konstantinides SV, Meyer G, Becattini C, Bueno H, Geersing GJ, Harjola VP, Huisman MV, Humbert M, Jennings CS, Jiménez D, Kucher N, Lang IM, Lankeit M, Lorusso R, Mazzolai L, Meneveau N, Ní Áinle F, Prandoni P, Pruszczyk P, Righini M, Torbicki A, Van Belle E, Zamorano JL; ESC Scientific Document Group. 2019 ESC Guidelines for the diagnosis and management of acute pulmonary embolism developed in collaboration with the European Respiratory Society (ERS).

The system was not built to keep you healthy. It was built to keep you paying. One entrepreneur who has spent his entire career inside US healthcare is finally saying out loud what most people only feel when they get the bill.What this episode is about:This is a raw, honest conversation with someone who has been operating inside the US healthcare industry since the 1990s. He breaks down exactly why the system is broken, who benefits from keeping it that way, and why the problem is only going to get worse, not better. Key topics discussed:- The "save all mentality" in US healthcare and why it drives unlimited spending regardless of cost- Why people are too scared to question their doctor's recommendations. and how that fear is being exploited- How insurance companies position themselves between patients and doctors- Why doctors get paid when you are sick, not when you are healthy, and what that incentive structure really means- Why the person who built their career in this industry believes the system is human-made, deeply destructive, and getting worse- The solution to the health care problem in the U.S. Why this episode matters:If you have ever received a medical bill that made no sense, been denied coverage, or felt like the system was working against you, this conversation will validate everything you suspected.

In this episode of Develop This!, Dennis Fraise sits down with "America's factory whisperer," Didi Caldwell, President & CEO of Global Location Strategies, for a candid and strategic conversation about the realities of site selection in today's turbulent environment. Site Selectors Guild With more than two decades guiding large manufacturing and heavy industrial projects, Didi shares insider insight into how companies actually make location decisions — and where communities often fall short. From compressed project timelines to the reshoring debate, from data centers reshaping energy markets to the growing importance of investment-ready sites, this episode is a masterclass in modern economic development strategy. If your community wants to compete — and win — this conversation is essential listening. What You'll Learn The New Reality of Site Selection The world of site selection is more volatile than ever. "Slow is fast — and fast is fraught with mistakes." Companies often fail by not aligning internal stakeholders before launching a search. Falling in love with a location before the data supports it can derail projects. Didi emphasizes a critical principle: "We evaluate proof, not potential." Incentives: Myths vs. Reality Incentives can enhance a strong location — but they cannot fix fatal flaws. Communities have a responsibility to evaluate ROI. The best incentive? A truly investment-ready site. Discipline in underwriting incentives protects long-term community prosperity. "Communities have a responsibility too." Data Centers & the Energy Disruption Data centers are fundamentally reshaping: Energy markets Power pricing Infrastructure planning Community land use As Didi notes: "The power price just went up too high." Communities must proactively manage land planning and infrastructure capacity to avoid crowding out other investment opportunities. U.S Reshoring: Reality or Rhetoric? Reshoring isn't a full return of manufacturing — it's a rebalancing. The U.S. holds competitive advantages in energy costs for capital-intensive industries. High interest rates and tariffs complicate investment decisions. Smaller projects are often easier to site than megaprojects. The key? Understanding where your community truly competes. The Evolution of Virtual Site Visits Virtual tours are now a legitimate step in site selection. Communities must have accurate, organized, and accessible data. Speed matters — but speed without preparation increases risk. "You need to have the right information." Preparing Communities for Investment Successful communities: Know their strengths and weaknesses. Maintain updated site data and infrastructure assessments. Align utilities, workforce, and leadership. Act as problem solvers — not just marketers. "We have to demonstrate we can deliver." Key Takeaways for Economic Developers Investment readiness beats incentive generosity. Discipline beats optimism every time. Long-term thinking outperforms short-term wins. Preparation reduces risk. Speed without diligence leads to costly mistakes. Communities must prove viability — not just promise it. About Didi Didi Caldwell is President and CEO of Global Location Strategies, a world leader in site selection and incentive negotiation services and a two-time honoree on the Inc. 5000 Fastest-Growing Companies list. She is a member — and former chairperson — of the prestigious Site Selectors Guild and currently serves as Chair of the REDI Sites initiative. Didi holds a bachelor's degree in architecture from Clemson University and an international MBA from the Darla Moore School of Business. With expertise in large-scale manufacturing and heavy industrial projects, she has guided some of the world's most complex location decisions.

Phase 1: Stabilization (Minutes 0–10) The “Rearrest” Window & Pathophysiology High-Risk Period: Rearrest rates reach 30% within the first minutes post-ROSC. Shock Incidence: Two-thirds of patients develop profound hypotension/shock as initial resuscitative efforts subside. Catecholamine Washout: Super-physiologic “code-dose” epinephrine (1mg IV) typically wears off within ~3 minutes post-ROSC, leading to predictable hemodynamic collapse. Secondary Injuries: Evaluate for “CPR-induced trauma” (blunt thoracic trauma, rib fractures, pneumothorax, liver/splenic lacerations). Immediate Resuscitative Actions Vascular Access: Transition rapidly from IO to reliable IV access within 1–2 minutes. Prioritize Intraosseous (IO) placement within 5 minutes if IV attempts fail; intra-arrest data suggests no significant difference in early outcomes. Vasoactive “Bridge”: Maintain a “bolus-dose” pressor at the bedside for immediate push-dose titration. Options: Phenylephrine, dilute Epinephrine, or dilute Norepinephrine (titrated to effect rather than rigid dosing). Physician-Specific Task: Arterial Line: Goal: Placement within 5 minutes of ROSC. Preferred Site: Femoral (by landmarks/blind if necessary) for speed; should be a 80 mmHg. The BOX Trial Nuance: While the BOX trial showed no difference between MAP 63 vs. 77, its cohort (Denmark) had exceptionally high survival rates (70% back to work) and short response times, which may not generalize to North American populations with lower shockable rhythm incidence. Permissive Hypertension: If the patient is “self-driving” to higher pressures, do not aggressively lower them, as this may be a physiologic demand for cerebral blood flow. Ventilation and Oxygenation PaCO2 Management: Target: High-normal to slightly hypercarbic (45–55 mmHg). Rationale: Avoid accidental hyperventilation (PaCO2

Senior year is finally here—and according to Sarah Bergin, Director of College Consulting at Evolved Education, this is where clarity, strategy, and strong decision-making truly matter. While many families think senior year is only about applications, Sarah reminds listeners that it's about much more: managing deadlines, navigating multiple application portals, completing financial aid steps, and choosing the best-fit college where a student can truly thrive. She emphasizes the importance of building a balanced college list, maintaining strong grades, and finishing with integrity. Essays should reflect authentic growth, not perfection. Applications require thoughtful storytelling, careful portal management, and attention to every deadline. And when financial aid enters the conversation, organization becomes even more essential. Most importantly, Sarah encourages families to reduce stress, avoid procrastination, and trust the process. You'll learn: Build a balanced list: reach, target, and likely schools Stay organized with applications, deadlines, and portal management Maintain authenticity in essays and decision-making Focus on choosing the best-fit college, not just the most prestigious Senior year is about finishing strong and positioning students to thrive. If your family needs clarity or guidance through applications, deadlines, or financial aid, Sarah invites you to reach out for thoughtful, strategic support.

Join us for our Bio Hacking series, where Mike and Mark explore one of the most essential pillars of human health: sleep. Guided by the groundbreaking research of Dr. Matthew Walker, author of Why We Sleep, the hosts explore why sleep is a critical component of physical and mental performance, emotional well-being, and long-term health.The episode begins by exploring the importance of sleep in memory, learning, and decision-making. Walker explains that sleep is not simply “downtime” but a fundamental process that helps store information and reset the brain for the next day.The hosts then transition into the science of sleep, discussing how aging impacts sleep quality and how a lack of restorative sleep can accelerate cognitive decline. They also cover Walker's research on how insufficient sleep weakens the immune system, increasing your risk of developing chronic illnesses such as heart disease, diabetes, and even cancer.But it's not all science – this episode is packed with practical tips for improving sleep hygiene. Walker outlines simple yet effective strategies to optimize your sleep:✅ Maintain regular sleep patterns✅ Make your room dark and cool✅ Avoid caffeine and alcohol before bed✅ Get out of bed if you can't sleep – reset and try againThe hosts conclude with a compelling message from Walker: Sleep is not a luxury – it's a biological necessity. It is your Swiss Army knife for health, affecting every system in your body and brain.

A Note from James:In the first two episodes with Dr. Nicole McNichols, we talked about chemistry, communication, anatomy, and the science of pleasure. This final episode is really about something deeper—how relationships evolve over time and what actually keeps desire alive.Because the truth is, long-term relationships don't stay exciting automatically. They require intention. They require curiosity. And sometimes the issue isn't your partner at all—it's that you've stopped doing things that light you up in your own life.We also talk about novelty, sex toys, aging, hormones, communication, and why pleasure itself is not optional for wellbeing—it's essential.This conversation tied everything together for me.Episode Description:How do couples keep desire alive years—or decades—into a relationship?In the final part of this series, Dr. Nicole McNichols explains why long-term passion isn't about constant novelty or dramatic reinvention. It's about intentional connection, personal growth, communication, and maintaining a sense of play.They discuss the “seven-year itch,” why boredom often comes from losing personal passion rather than losing attraction, and how seeing your partner energized by their own interests can reignite desire. The conversation also explores sex toys as collaborative tools, the health benefits of sexual activity, aging and sexuality, hormone therapy, and practical ways to communicate about sex without embarrassment.The episode closes with a powerful reminder: pleasure is not a luxury—it's a core component of wellbeing.What You'll Learn:Why boredom in relationships is often about your own life—not your partnerHow pursuing individual passions can increase attraction in long-term couplesWhy sex toys enhance connection rather than threaten itThe physical and psychological health benefits of sexual activityHow curiosity, humor, and vulnerability improve sexual communicationTimestamped Chapters:[00:02:00] Pleasure, Playfulness & Why Attraction Fades[00:03:28] The Seven-Year Itch & Long-Term Desire[00:04:00] Intention, Communication & Intimacy Dates[00:04:45] When Boredom Is About Your Own Life[00:05:25] Personal Passion & Seeing Your Partner Differently[00:06:11] The Best Sex of Your Life After Kids[00:08:16] Novelty Without Threatening the Relationship[00:09:24] Erotic Identity & Emotional Needs[00:11:00] Frequency of Novelty & Sexual Compatibility[00:11:21] Men Feeling Threatened by Novelty[00:11:42] Sex Toys as Collaborative Tools[00:13:26] The Pleasure Cycle: Wanting, Liking, Learning[00:14:12] Sex, Stress Reduction & Sleep[00:15:23] Health Benefits of Sex[00:16:08] Pleasure as Essential Wellbeing[00:19:00] Is Sex the Most Enjoyable Activity?[00:20:00] Presence, Mindfulness & Happiness Research[00:21:39] Sex and Meditation[00:22:00] Sex in Your 80s & Aging[00:23:22] Loneliness, Health & Sexual Function[00:24:25] Erectile Dysfunction & Physical Health[00:25:00] Menopause, Hormones & Sexual Pain[00:26:23] Hormone Therapy & Medical Guidance[00:27:35] Communication as the Core Skill[00:28:35] Leading With Curiosity[00:29:56] Humor, Playfulness & Awkward Conversations[00:31:08] Closing ThoughtsAdditional Resources:You Could Be Having Better SexNicole McNicholsDaniel Gilbert — Happiness research referencedSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Modern Lessons from the Fed-Treasury Accord. Drawing parallels between 1951 and today, John Cochrane examines the tension between presidential administrations and the Federal Reserve during crises. He emphasizes that the Fed must maintain its independence, warning against perpetually funding government spending and urging a strict focus on inflation control over politically motivated easy money. #41918 VERDUN
