In this episode, Dave and Jamison answer these questions: Albert Nonymous asks, I am the CTO at a small (5 engineers) tech start-up with non-technical founders. I was their first full-time employee and as such have been able to fully form this company the way I want. I've worked here for 9 years now and own 10% of the company. I enjoy the tech and the job itself. The pay is ok, not crazy Silicon Valley numbers but pretty good for a country with free health care. However, I started here while still in university. This is still the only job I've ever had. I am afraid that my resume will become less valuable the longer I stay here. I still keep up with current trends with hobby projects, but I'm worried that my resume will become less valuable if I ever need to look for another job. Also, I don't believe this company will succeed in the long run. I am still the only person on the board who knows how our tech even works and I have found myself slacking off quite a bit during the last year since having my first child. In the meantime, I also feel like I can't just quit this job since that will almost certainly spell the end for this company and all its employees (some of which I count among my friends after all these years). What do I do? Am I overthinking things? Can I just keep working here until it eventually goes under? Or do I absolutely need to bite the bullet and pull the Jamison and Dave Time-Honoured Special™ and quit my job before I become totally un-hirable? For much of my 9 years as a software engineer, I wanted to be a leader. I just really enjoyed mentoring, training, improving workflows, working with stakeholders and co-ordinating on projects. Leadership seemed like a natural fit and so I was super psyched to be finally made a team leader last year. It has been hell. It has been like falling backwards out of a tree and hitting every branch on the way down, meanwhile it's literally raining anvils and sabre toothed tigers. The constant pressure to have work lined up for the team and be able to report on the activities of the team at a moment's notice is unbearable. I can't stand being responsible for the delivery of other people's work, writing up reports that no one reads or painstakingly de-noising pointless metrics. I dread having to pull eager young developers out of refactoring rabbit holes. Fortunately, as I took this ‘promotion' with no raise, I've easily been able to get myself busted back down to IC. Happy days

Minnesota has the highest rate of people working remotely in the Midwest, according to the Minneapolis Federal Reserve. More than a third of workers in the state worked at home at least part time in 2023. But now, five years after the pandemic, the great experiment of remote work is shaking out. More employers are calling workers back to the office. On Monday, tens of thousands of state employees who had been working remotely are required to return to work in person at least 50 percent of the time, complying with a return-to-office order from Gov. Tim Walz. Some private companies, such as 3M and Medtronic, also are dialing back their work-from-home policies and President Donald Trump has sought to end remote work for federal workers.MPR News host Angela Davis discusses what we've learned about remote work — when it works and when it doesn't — and what its future might be. Guests: Chris Farrell is a senior economics contributor for MPR News and Marketplace. Colleen Flaherty Manchester is a professor and faculty director of the Center for Human Resources and Labor Studies in the Carlson School of Management at the University of Minnesota.

Interview with Nick Appleyard, President & CEO of TriStar Gold Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/tristar-gold-tsxvtsg-moving-through-permitting-process-4713Recording date: 30th May 2025Tristar Gold (TSXV: TSG) has emerged as a compelling investment opportunity in Brazil's mining sector following the release of updated project economics and successful resolution of permitting challenges at its Castelo de Sonhos gold project. The company recently completed a $10 million financing round that will fund strategic drilling programs and advance the project toward feasibility study completion.The updated Preliminary Feasibility Study released in May 2025 demonstrates exceptional project economics with a 40% post-tax internal rate of return at $2,200 gold prices. With current gold trading around $3,200 per ounce, management estimates returns could exceed 70%, supported by over $1 billion in pre-tax cash flow generation and $600 million post-tax net present value. The project targets average annual production of 120,000 ounces over 11 years, with higher-grade output of 150,000 ounces during initial years.A significant milestone involved successfully defending the environmental permit against a public prosecutor challenge regarding indigenous consultation. Despite recommendations for suspension, the permit remained valid as multiple parties confirmed no impact on indigenous lands located hundreds of kilometers from the project site. This resolution strengthens Tristar's regulatory position and eliminates a key development risk.The company benefits from exceptional infrastructure advantages, sitting just 15 kilometers from a major highway with existing power lines and road access developed for the regional soybean industry. These factors support a sub-$300 million capital cost estimate while eliminating major infrastructure development requirements.Management has clearly articulated its strategy as a project developer rather than mine builder, actively seeking partnerships with established mining companies over the next 12 months. This approach recognizes that optimal value creation comes through partnering with experienced operators capable of funding and operating the project through production.The recent financing included participation from Eric Sprott, taking approximately 10% of the company, providing third-party validation of the investment opportunity. With permitting resolved and drilling programs commencing, Tristar expects improved news flow to drive valuation re-rating as the company advances toward strategic partnership.View Tristar Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/tristar-gold-incSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
Interview with Jonathan Egilo, President & CEO of AXO Copper Corp.Recording date: 30th May 2025Executive Summary for InvestorsAXO Copper presents a compelling investment opportunity in the high-grade copper space, combining proven mineralization with near-term development potential. The company is set to list , following successful completion of its IPO process, positioning investors to participate in a systematic resource definition program at the La Huerta Copper Project in Jalisco, Mexico.Production-Proven Asset BaseUnlike typical exploration stories, AXO's flagship project comes with established production history that significantly reduces geological and metallurgical risk. Locals successfully operated the deposit for three to four years using a 250-ton-per-day sulfide flotation plant, consistently mining ore grading 4-5% copper. This operational track record provides crucial validation of both ore continuity and processing characteristics that most junior companies lack during early development phases. President and CEO Jonathan Egilo emphasized this advantage: "They've effectively done a three or four year what I would consider like a bulk sample derisking process for us. And the next step is to see like what it should be kind of restarted up."Exceptional Grade Profile and Geological PotentialAXO's drilling program has confirmed the high-grade nature of the deposit with impressive intercepts including 9.4m grading 4.4% copper, with a subsection of 3.2m grading 21.4% copper. The mineralization extends across a 5-kilometer strike length, with drilling to date reaching only 200 meters below surface. The geological system consists of steeply-dipping copper sulfide dykes with high-grade cores of 3-6 meters surrounded by alteration halos, creating opportunities for both high-grade and bulk tonnage scenarios.The company has traced mineralization for 5 kilometers along surface, yet the family's original operation covered only 200 meters of strike length and extended just 40-50 meters depth. This limited exploitation of a much larger system presents significant expansion potential for systematic exploration.Strategic Acquisition and Capital StructureAXO secured roughly $9.5 million in 2023 which funded the first drill program, plus 5 million shares over five years with no ongoing royalties. This royalty-free structure enhances project economics by allowing AXO to capture full production value without perpetual payments. The company has raised more capital through pre-IPO financing rounds providing adequate financing for the planned 15,000-meter drilling program.Systematic Exploration StrategyThe upcoming drill program allocates 70% of 15,000 meters to a priority 1.5-kilometer zone, focusing on strike extension and depth testing to 350-400 meters below surface. The systematic approach targets resource definition while testing the hypothesis that current workings represent only the upper portion of a larger copper system. Regional targets provide additional upside potential with surface copper expressions grading up to 6% in different geological settings.Infrastructure and Development AdvantagesLocated within 7 kilometers of ArcelorMittal's major iron ore operation, the project benefits from established infrastructure, skilled labor, and supply chains. Access requires only 1.5 hours from Manzanillo port via paved highways, providing connectivity to Pacific shipping and Mexico's industrial centers.Management's development strategy focuses on building a project suitable for junior company advancement rather than requiring acquisition by major miners. Egilo noted: "One of our best differentiating factors here is, you know, I don't know what the scale of this should end up being, but you know, it's not going to be a $3 billion porphyry bill."Investment OutlookAXO Copper offers investors exposure to high-grade copper discovery with reduced geological risk, systematic exploration approach, and clear development pathway. The combination of production history, exceptional grades, excellent infrastructure, and experienced management team creates a compelling value proposition within the copper sector's favorable supply-demand dynamics.View AXO Copper's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/axo-copper-cSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

In this episode of the Journey of My Mother's Son podcast, I talk with Santo Marabella. I was honored to have the opportunity to have my old friend from Berks County, Santo, on my show. We have been friends for over fifteen years now. We first got to know each other when we both served on the board of the Berks County Visitors Bureau and through volunteering with the Reading Filmfest. However, I never really knew Santo's story of how he arrived in the United States until recently. It is an incredible story, and again, I feel honored to be able to give Santo a place at my table, and help tell a little bit of his story on my show. Santo D. Marabella, MBA, DSW, The Practical Prof® is an author, playwright, filmmaker, speaker and educator with writing, directing and producing credits for books, television pilots, a musical, short films and plays. He is the co-founder ReadingFilmFEST and the ReadingFilm Office, for which he served as ReadingFilm Commissioner (2006-2018). Recent projects include writer/director of the play Rocky Road Ain't Always Sweet, (2024). producer, AVA (2023); producer, FLASHLIGHT (2023); director/co-producer, workshop for Love Is Afoot!, an original musical (2023); writer/producer/director, THE CAREGIVER (2022). Marabella, Professor Emeritus of Management, Moravian University, is a member of The Lambs®, The Dramatists Guild of America and Theatre Communications Group. His newest film, Il Mio Posto a Tavola (My Place at the Table) is a first-person documentary which examines our universal need to belong, as seen through the heart of the filmmaker. Born in a Catholic orphanage in Aosta, Italy, and flown to the United States just one week shy of his first birthday, Santo D. Marabella was one of over 3700 Italian born children adopted by Italian American parents between 1951 and 1969. Known as the “Baby Scoop” era, tens of thousands of Italian unwed mothers were forced to give their children up for adoption, leaving behind generations of children devastated by their perceived abandonment. Though he was the treasured only child of his adoptive parents, Santo was bullied by his peers and struggled from an early age to fit in and connect with others. Growing up, the realization that he was gay further deepened this isolation, straining his relationship with the Church to which he was so dedicated and the parents he so loved. Despite self-doubt and fear, he refused to be stopped. He tried harder and achieved more, carving out a life as a caregiver, educator, writer and artist. But he was still on the outside. In this journey to belonging, Santo returns to Italy to find his place at the table (posto a tavola) To find out more about the film, check out its website at https://ilmiopostofilm.com/.
By 2050, the global population is expected to reach about 10 billion people. That means we need to find a way to feed nearly 2 billion more mouths in the next 25 years. Industrial farming practices have already destroyed countless natural ecosystems, and experts say that expanding farmland even further would have devastating consequences for the planet. In Berkeley Talks episode 227, UC Berkeley Professor Timothy Bowles and journalist Michael Grunwald discuss the impact of our current agricultural methods and debate the ways we can ramp up food production without causing more harm to the environment. “Agriculture is eating the earth,” says Grunwald, author of the forthcoming book We Are Eating the Earth: The Race to Fix Our Food System and Save Our Climate. Farmland, he says, now covers two of every five acres on the planet, “and those are acres that used to be forest and wetlands and savannas that stored a lot of carbon and sheltered a lot of biodiversity.” In order to avoid further destruction, he contends, we must produce more food on land we already farm by improving the efficiency of our existing industrial systems.While Bowles agrees that expanding farmland isn't the answer, he counters that industrial agriculture isn't either; he argues that industrial farming is detrimental to the environment and human health and perpetuates social and economic inequality. Instead, he advocates for agroecology — sustainable farming that allows farmers to work with nature to create resilient and productive food systems. “It's already happening all over the world,” says Bowles, an associate professor in the Department of Environmental Science, Policy and Management at UC Berkeley and lead faculty director of the Berkeley Food Institute. “What hasn't been happening is the political will to make it the foundation of our food system.”“Coming back here to California, agroecology is when 1.6 million schoolchildren are eating lunches that are not taco beef sticks,” he continues, “but fruits and vegetables and whole grains that are supplied by California farms that are using climate-smart agricultural practices supported by state investments, and building on the successes of an organic agricultural industry that is currently [worth] $11 billion.”This conversation took place on April 17, 2025, and was sponsored by the Berkeley Food Institute. It was moderated by New York Times correspondent Kim Severson.

Episode 192: ADHD Treatment. Jordan Redden (MSIV) explains the treatment of ADHD. Dr. Bustamante adds input about pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic treatments. Dr. Arreaza shares the how stimulants were discovered as the treatment for ADHD. Written by Jordan Redden, MSIV, Ross University School of Medicine. Comments and edits by Isabelo Bustamante, MD, and Hector Arreaza, MD. You are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice.Introduction.ADHD is a chronic neurodevelopmental condition characterized by inattention, impulsivity, and/or hyperactivity. While it's often diagnosed in childhood, symptoms can persist well in adulthood. The treatment for ADHD is multifaceted. It often includes medication, behavioral therapy, environmental modifications, and sometimes educational interventions which are especially effective in younger patients. Ongoing evaluation is needed during treatment. Treatment needs adjustments over time.Starting with medications: Stimulants are the most well-studied and effective pharmacologic treatment for ADHD. These include methylphenidate-based medications such as Ritalin, Concerta, and Focalin, and amphetamine-based options, like Adderall, Vyvanse, and Dexedrine. Discovery of stimulants for ADHD> Dr. Charles Bradley discovered stimulants as the treatment for ADHD around 1937. ADHD did not have a name at that time, but it was known that some children had behavioral problems related to poor attention and inability to control their impulses, but they were still intelligent. Dr. Bradley was a psychiatrist who was working in the Bradley Hospital (Rhode Island), he was studying these children and, as part of his experiments, they developed severe headaches. He gave “Benzedrine” (a decongestant) to his pediatric patients to treat severe headaches, and he discovered that Benzedrine improved academic performance and interest in school and improved disruptive behavior in some children.How do stimulants work.Stimulants work primarily by increasing dopamine and norepinephrine levels in the brain, which helps improve focus, attention span, and impulse control. They typically show a rapid onset of action and can lead to noticeable improvements within the first few days of use. Dosing is individualized and should start low with gradual titration. Side effects can include reduced appetite, insomnia, headaches, increased heart rate, and emotional lability.Types of stimulants. Stimulants come as short acting and long acting. They can come as a tablet, liquid, patch, or orally disintegrating tablet. After the discovery of Benzedrine as a possible treatment for ADHD, more research was done over the years, and Ritalin became the first FDA-approved medication for ADHD (1955). The list of medications may seem overwhelming, but there are only two types of stimulants used to treat ADHD: methylphenidate and amphetamine. Long-acting stimulant medications are often preferred for their consistent symptom control and lower potential for misuse. Vyvanse (lis-dexa-mfetamine) is a widely used long-acting amphetamine-based option. As a prodrug, it remains inactive until metabolized in the body, which results in a smoother onset and offset of action and may reduce the risk of abuse. This extended duration of effect can help patients maintain focus and regulate impulses throughout the day without the peaks and crashes sometimes seen with shorter-acting formulations. Of note, Vyvanse is also approved for Binge Eating Disorder. Many of these medications are Schedule II controlled substances, so to prescribe them you need a DEA license. Other long-acting options include Concerta, an extended-release methylphenidate, as well as extended-release versions of Adderall and Focalin. These are especially helpful for school-aged children who benefit from once-daily dosing, and for adults who need sustained attention during work or academic activities. The choice between short- and long-acting stimulants depends on individual response, side effect tolerance, and daily routine.For patients who cannot tolerate stimulants, or for those with contraindications such as a history of substance misuse or certain cardiac conditions, non-stimulant medications are an alternative. One of the most used is atomoxetine, which inhibits the presynaptic norepinephrine transporter (NET). This leads to increased levels of norepinephrine (and to a lesser extent dopamine). Guanfacine or clonidine are alpha-2A adrenergic receptor agonists that lead to reduced sympathetic outflow and enhanced prefrontal cortical function, improving attention and impulse control. These alpha agonists are particularly useful in younger children with significant hyperactivity or sleep disturbances.Non-pharmacologic treatments.Behavioral therapy before age 6 is the first choice, after that, medications are more effective than BH only, and as adults again you use CBT.Medication is often just one part of a broader treatment plan. Behavioral therapy, especially in children, plays a critical role. Parent-training programs, positive reinforcement systems, and structured routines can significantly improve functioning. And for adolescents and adults, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is particularly helpful. CBT can address issues like procrastination, time management, emotional regulation, and self-esteem which are areas that medication doesn't always touch.Using medications for ADHD can be faced with resistance by parents, and even children. There is stigma and misconceptions about mental health, there may be concerns about side effects, fear of addiction, negative past experiences, and some parents prefer to treat ADHD the “natural” way without medications or only with supplements. All those concerns are valid. Starting a medication for ADHD is the first line of treatment in children who are 6 years and older, but it requires a shared decision with parents and patients. Cardiac side effects are possible with stimulants. EKG may be needed before starting stimulants, but it is not required. Get a personal and family cardiac history, including a solid ROS. Benefits include control of current condition and treating comorbid conditions.The presentation of ADHD changes as the person goes through different stages of life. For example, you may have severe hyperactivity in your school years, but that hyperactivity improves during adolescence and impulsivity worsens. It varies among sexes too. Women tend to present as inattentive, and men tend to be more hyperactive. ADHD is often underdiagnosed in adults, yet it can significantly impact job performance, relationships, and mental health. In adults, we often use long-acting stimulants to minimize the potential for misuse. And psychotherapy, particularly CBT or executive functioning coaching, can be life-changing when combined with pharmacologic treatment. There are several populations where treatment must be tailored carefully such as pregnant patients, individuals with co-occurring anxiety or depression, and those with a history of substance use. For example, atomoxetine may be preferred in patients with a history of substance misuse. And in children with coexisting oppositional defiant disorder, combined behavioral and pharmacologic therapy is usually more effective than either approach alone.Comorbid conditions.Depression and anxiety can be comorbid, and they can also mimic ADHD. Consult your DSM-5 to clarify what you are treating, ADHD vs depression/anxiety.Treatment goes beyond the clinic. For school-aged children, we often work closely with schools to implement 504 plans or Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) that provide classroom accommodations. Adults may also benefit from workplace strategies like structured schedules, noise-reducing headphones, or even coaching support. Ongoing monitoring is absolutely essential. We assess side effects of medication, adherence, and symptom control. ***In children, we also monitor growth and sleep patterns. We often use validated rating scales, like the Vanderbilt questionnaire for children 6–12 (collect answers from two settings) or Conners questionnaires (collect from clinician, parents and teachers), to track progress. And shared decision-making with patients and families is key throughout the treatment process.To summarize, ADHD is a chronic but manageable condition. Effective treatment usually involves a combination of medication and behavioral interventions, tailored to the individual's needs. And early diagnosis and treatment can significantly improve quality of life academically, socially, and emotionally.Even without trying, every night you go to bed a little wiser.

During the confirmation hearings of the Office of Management and Budget Director and Deputy Director for budget earlier this year, lawmakers pressed Russ Vought and Dan Bishop about whether they would comply with the Impoundment Control Act. The budget rules of the road require congressional approval if OMB decides not to spend money appropriated in law, while both Vought and Bishop promised to comply with the law. A new decision by the Government Accountability Office casts further doubt on whether OMB will follow the 1974 impoundment Control Act.

In this illuminating episode we speak with Dr. Filippa Juul. An epidemiologist and leading researcher on the impact of ultra-processed foods (UPFs) on human health. Together, we unpack what ultra-processed really means, why it's not just about calories or macros, and how these foods are stealthily contributing to the global rise in obesity, chronic illness, and food addiction. Dr. Filippa Juul is a nutritional epidemiologist and Faculty Fellow at the Department of Public Health Policy and Management at the New York University School of Global Public Health (NYU GPH). She earned her PhD in Epidemiology from NYU GPH in 2020, following a MSc in Public Health Nutrition from the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden, and a BA in Nutrition and Dietetics from Universidad Autónoma de Madrid in Spain. Dr. Juul's research focuses on improving cardiometabolic health outcomes at the population level, with a particular interest in the role of ultra-processed foods (UPFs) in diet quality, obesity, and cardiovascular disease. She utilizes large U.S. population studies to examine these associations and is also exploring the biological mechanisms underlying the impact of UPFs on cardiometabolic health. Dr. Juul explains the NOVA classification system, dives into recent groundbreaking studies, and offers insights into why UPFs are so difficult to resist—and what we can do about it, both individually and at the policy level.

What if becoming a manager isn't the upgrade you've been led to believe?What if you could grow your influence and your impact, without giving up the work you actually love doing? In this episode, Filippos Protogeridis shares why traditional UX career ladders don't always work and how he carved out a leadership path that didn't require a team of direct reports.A lot of mid-level and senior designers assume the only way to advance their careers is to become managers. But what if that path isn't right for you? What if there are better options? In this episode, I talk with Filippos Protogeridis, who shares his journey from founding designer to head of product design at a rapidly growing healthtech startup in London.Filippos didn't follow the traditional ladder. Instead of giving up hands-on work, he redefined what leadership looks like for his role, blending vision work, hiring, mentoring, and strategy with the design work he still loves. We talk about why most companies get the “promotion to management” thing all wrong, and how to think more clearly about what you actually want from your next step.If you've been wrestling with questions about growth, leadership, and what it really means to “level up” in UX, this episode is for you.

In today's episode of Leading Through Crisis, we explore the question, “What's at stake when leaders are unprincipled, unethical, incompetent, and selfish?”Philippe Johnson, a retired US Air Force officer, advocate for principled and ethical leadership, and author, shares his thoughts, particularly as they relate to public service and through the lens of Trump's presidency.Topics discussed:◾️Paying attention to the competencies and personality traits that are being normalized◾️Traits of problematic leaders to watch out for◾️Principled loyalty vs blind loyalty, and loyalty over competence or ethics◾️What's at risk, on an organizational level and a larger, more macro or national level“That's the thing I want to diminish, loyalty for loyalty's sake as a virtue. It's not. The definition of loyalty is an allegiance that's earned.”Join us for a fascinating and perhaps horrifying conversation on What Hangs In The Balance (conveniently, also the name of Philippe's book).—Philippe Johnson is a retired United States Air Force officer and advocate for principled and ethical leadership in public service. The son of a language teacher and career United States Army officer, he was raised in the United States, France, and Germany. During his 24 years on active duty, Lieutenant Colonel Johnson served as a fixed- and rotary-wing pilot, intelligence officer, and diplomat (military attaché), and was honored with the Defense Meritorious Service Medal, the Meritorious Service Medal with two oak leaf clusters, and the Air Medal with one oak leaf cluster. He also served on the staffs of two Air Force major commands as his final two assignments. Philippe received a bachelor's degree in political science from the University of Florida and earned his master's degree in public policy from the University of Maryland's School of Public Policy.

Interview with Victor Cantore, President & CEO of Amex Exploration Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/amex-exploration-tsxvamx-quebec-gold-developer-evaluates-pfs-option-for-16moz-perron-project-6683Recording date: 28th May 2025AMEX Exploration Inc. (TSXV:AMX) has delivered a transformational resource upgrade that positions the company for rapid advancement to gold production in Quebec's prolific Abitibi Greenstone Belt. The updated mineral resource estimate reveals 1.615 million ounces in measured and indicated categories at 6.14 g/t, representing a remarkable 172% increase over the 2024 estimate with a 43% grade improvement.The flagship Champagne Zone forms the production core with 831,000 ounces at an exceptional 16.20 g/t, supported by an additional 128,000 inferred ounces at 9.83 g/t. This high-grade foundation enables CEO Victor Cantore's strategic pivot toward cash flow generation while maintaining exploration activities across 197 square kilometers of prospective land.AMEX's production strategy leverages unique advantages that distinguish it from typical development projects. Located near the historic mining town of Normétal, the project benefits from existing infrastructure, skilled workforce, and multiple toll milling options throughout the region. The underground mining approach requires minimal surface infrastructure, accelerating permitting timelines compared to open-pit operations.Management has outlined an aggressive two-year timeline to production, beginning with an updated preliminary economic assessment within 60 days, followed by a feasibility study focused on toll milling operations. This phased approach generates early cash flows while advancing full mine development, supporting Cantore's anti-dilutive growth model that minimizes shareholder dilution through operational cash flow rather than repeated equity raises.Strategic validation comes through Eldorado Gold's 9.9% ownership, providing technical expertise from their similar high-grade Lamaque operation. The partnership strengthens AMEX's transition from exploration to production while maintaining management independence.With total resources of 2.313 million ounces and exceptional grades enabling economic toll milling across wide geographic areas, AMEX exemplifies the industry trend toward high-grade, capital-efficient operations that maximize returns per ounce while building sustainable long-term cash flows.View AMEX Exploration's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/amex-explorationSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

This week on the podcast, I'm sharing my conversation with award-winning teacher, researcher and best-selling author, Cassie Holmes. Cassie Mogilner Holmes is a chaired professor at UCLA's Anderson School of Management, an award-winning teacher and researcher on time and happiness, and bestselling author of Happier Hour: How to Beat Distraction, Expand Your Time, and Focus on What Matters Most. Cassie's research examines such questions as how focusing on time (rather than money) increases happiness, how the meaning of happiness changes over the course of one's lifetime, and how much happiness people enjoy from extraordinary versus ordinary experiences. Across these inquiries, her findings highlight the joy that stems from interpersonal connection and paying attention to the present moment. In our conversation, we explore just this. And Cassie provides tools and insights to help us identify what matters to us so we can experience more joy in the everyday.
