This week on Grumpy Old Geeks, we're diving headfirst into the digital dumpster fire, starting with follow-up that will make you wonder if the rich are finally getting their comeuppance. It seems Tesla's market share is plummeting, and Elon Musk has been unceremoniously knocked off as the world's wealthiest person. Meanwhile, OpenAI and Microsoft are flirting with new partnership terms, and OpenAI is also reportedly cozying up with Oracle for a cloud computing deal. Are they figuring it all out or just rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic? You decide.In the news, it's a feast of AI-induced chaos. Anthropic attempted to settle a copyright lawsuit for $1.5 billion, but a judge rejected it. Apple faces scrutiny for allegedly using pirated books to train AI (because who needs original ideas when you can just steal them?), and everyone from Reddit to Yahoo is rushing to get paid for their data being scraped by AI. Google even admits that the open web is struggling, while pushing ads into AI-generated answers and trying to convince us that DOGE never existed. Meanwhile, millions of YouTube videos have been copied by AI companies—because why create when you can just steal? Not to mention, The Boring Company reportedly stopped tunneling after a "crushing injury" (ironic, huh?), Zuckerberg and Palmer Luckey are teaming up again like a disastrous boy band for military-grade goggles, and Meta whistleblowers are exposing child safety issues. Plus, a hot mic caught Zuck groveling to Trump—the cringe is real. And if that wasn't enough, it turns out AI usage is actually declining at big companies, and programmers using AI are creating more security risks than a screen door on a submarine. It's almost like we saw this coming.For your Media Candy fix, get ready for a dose of existential dread. The MTV Video Music Awards are still happening in 2025, with a median viewer age of 56—because nothing screams "youth culture" like osteoporosis. We'll wonder if Wednesday (aka Charlie Sheen) is still winning and discuss Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. Amazon Music is launching AI-powered playlists (because who needs a human DJ when you can have an algorithm that thinks it knows your soul?), and Deezer claims 28% of all new music is AI-generated. Taika Waititi is developing a "potentially disastrous" Fyre Fest musical (we're excited!), Foundation is renewed for season 4, and the HBO Max CEO thinks it's "way underpriced"—bless his heart. Plus, more Highlander reboot news that will probably disappoint, and a look at The Missi & Brooke Show and The Traitors Ireland.Finally, in Apps & Doodads, bad news for AirPods Live Translation in the EU, Evernote and WeTransfer's owner is buying Vimeo, and you need this pettable Poké Ball Tamagotchi-style toy. In The Dark Side with Dave, we'll discuss The Princess Bride, how tariffs are ruining hobbies, and who wants "slop for their ears." This episode shows that some things never change, and most things are just getting worse.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with journalist and author Alison Sher to explore how we can stay politically informed without sacrificing our mental health. Drawing from her book The Social Contagion: Viral Ideologies and the Culture War for America's Future, Alison unpacks the tension between outrage culture, biased news cycles, and our civic duty to stay engaged. The conversation dives into practical strategies for consuming news without burnout, how to navigate polarized narratives, and why curiosity and compassion are essential for respectful dialogue in today's divided world. If you've ever felt mentally drained by headlines or guilty for tuning out, this episode offers tools to reset your relationship with information and reclaim your inner balance. About the Guest   Alison Sher is a journalist, author, and cultural commentator whose work focuses on the fractures shaping modern society, from generational divides to ideological polarization. Her latest book, The Social Contagion, examines how viral media narratives influence our psychology and politics while offering a path toward neutrality, peacebuilding, and healthier civic engagement. Key Takeaways   Staying informed requires boundaries—limit news and social media intake to avoid constant adrenaline spikes. Recognize bias in reporting: tools like DeBias.me and Ground News can help expose slanted narratives. Curiosity and dialogue are more powerful than outrage; respectful listening helps integrate diverse perspectives. Engagement doesn't have to mean burnout—redefining activism to include joyful and sustainable approaches is key. Civic duty and mental health can coexist when we prioritize compassion, curiosity, and balance over constant outrage.   Connect with the Guest   Website & projects: alisonsher.com Book: The Social Contagion (available on major platforms) Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sana sits down with Jason VanDevere, entrepreneur, author of Dream Driven, and founder of GoalCrazy. Jason shares his story of walking away from a multi-million dollar family business to build his own path with just a vision, a journal, and relentless persistence. From selling over 40,000 planners to creating multiple income streams and now publishing his upcoming book, Jason opens up about the mental, emotional, and practical side of entrepreneurship. This conversation goes beyond success stories—it's about protecting mental health, finding balance, setting boundaries, and fueling your business with passion and systems that work. Whether you're in your first launch or scaling your fifth year, Jason's insights will help you design a business that supports your life not overtakes it. About the Guest   Jason VanDevere is an entrepreneur, podcast host, and creator of the GoalCrazy Planner. He has built a seven-figure business from scratch, manages a thriving real estate portfolio, and coaches others on designing a life that aligns with their deepest dreams. His new book, Dream Driven (launching September 9, 2025), guides readers through clarifying their vision and building businesses that make their dream lifestyles possible.   Website: goalcrazy.comBook: Dream Driven (available September 9, 2025, on Amazon) Key Takeaways   Balance is possible in entrepreneurship if you design your business around your desired lifestyle—not the other way around. Clarity of vision helps push through fear, doubt, and financial struggles in the early years. Dreams give goals meaning; without dreams, entrepreneurs often end up in “survival mode.” Journaling can help unload fears, clarify thoughts, and keep the mind available for focused work. Taking regular “mindset days” (full days off during the week) prevents burnout and sparks creativity. Passion fuels persistence, but systems and practical strategies make long-term success possible. Boundaries—like timers and fixed work hours—protect mental health and family life. Family commitments can drive productivity by limiting wasted time and forcing focus on high-value activities. Success isn't about building the biggest business; it's about building the life your business fits into.   Connect with the Guest   Website: goalcrazy.comFree PDF: goalcrazy.com/ideaBook: Dream Driven (Amazon, September 9, 2025)   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?   DM on PM – Send me a message on PodMatch DM Me Here: https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/avik   CHECK PODCAST SHOWS & BE A GUEST:   Tune to all our 19 podcasts: https://www.podbean.com/podcast-network/healthymindbyavik Subscribe To Newsletter: https://healthymindbyavik.substack.com/ Join Community: https://nas.io/healthymind OUR SERVICES   Business Podcast Management Individual Podcast Management Share Your Story With World STAY TUNED AND FOLLOW US!   Medium - https://medium.com/@contentbyavikYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@healthymindbyavikInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/healthyminds.pod/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/podcast.healthymindLinkedIn Page - https://www.linkedin.com/company/healthymindbyavikLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/avikchakrabortypodcaster/Twitter - https://twitter.com/podhealthclubPinterest - https://www.pinterest.com/Avikpodhealth/ SHARE YOUR REVIEW   Share your Google Review Share a video Testimonial   #podmatch #healthymind #healthymindbyavik #wellness #HealthyMindByAvik #MentalHealthAwareness #StorytellingAsMedicine #PodcastLife #PersonalDevelopment #ConsciousLiving #GrowthMindset #MindfulnessMatters #VoicesOfUnity #InspirationDaily #podcast #podcasting #podcaster #podcastlife #podcastlove #podcastshow #podcastcommunity #newpodcast #podcastaddict #podcasthost #pdcastepisode #podcastinglife #podrecommendation #wellnesspodcast #healthpodcast #mentalhealthpodcast #wellbeing #selfcare #mentalhealth #mindfulness #healthandwellness #wellnessjourney #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthawareness #healthandwellnesspodcast #fyp #foryou #foryoupage #viral #trending #tiktok #tiktokviral #explore #trendingvideo #youtube #motivation #inspiration #positivity #mindset #selflove #success

In this episode of Healthy Waves, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Patty Durell, founder of Rock Solid Fitness, and Daniel Hartshorn, co-founder of Flowgreens and ScentXpresso, to explore how technology, aromatherapy, and strength training are reshaping wellness in a high-stress, tech-driven world. From smart showers that transform daily routines into mindful rituals, to efficient resistance training that rebuilds energy and confidence for women in midlife, this conversation challenges outdated health myths and reframes what vitality truly looks like. Whether you're feeling stuck in burnout, curious about tech-powered healing, or seeking strength without overtraining, this episode offers practical, science-backed insights you can apply today. About the Guests   Patty Durell is a strength training expert and the creator of High Intensity SAFE™ Strength Training, a proven method that helps high-performing women regain strength, energy, and confidence with just two 25-minute sessions a week. She is also the founder of Rock Solid Fitness. Daniel Hartshorn is an entrepreneur and co-founder of ScentXpresso, a wellness technology company creating spa-like aromatherapy shower experiences to combat stress and burnout. With a background in scaling tech startups, Daniel now focuses on human-centered innovation for health and well-being. Key Takeaways   Strength training is not about doing more but about doing enough—properly applied resistance builds both physical and mental resilience. Many midlife women avoid lifting weights due to myths about injury or “bulking up,” but real results come from heavy resistance done safely. Smart aromatherapy rituals, such as Daniel's ScentXpresso, turn overlooked moments like a shower into powerful anchors for relaxation and mental reset. Scent is a primal sensory trigger tied to memory and emotion—using it intentionally can reduce stress and promote emotional stability. Rituals and boundaries—like nature walks, hugs, family breakfasts, or mindful exercise—help root us in balance amidst digital overload. Resistance training improves sleep, mood, hormonal balance, and self-worth, especially for women navigating menopause and midlife challenges. Both guests stress the importance of cultural reset: midlife is not “old age,” but an opportunity to strengthen body, mind, and daily habits. Wellness technology's future lies in combining hard data (like heart rate and blood pressure) with personal experiences of well-being for truly personalized care.   Connect with the Guests   Patty Durell: rocksolidfitnessfl.com | YouTube: Rock Solid Fitness FL Daniel Hartshorn: Instagram @scentxpresso | Kickstarter: Search “ScentXpresso” Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?   DM on PM - Send me a message on PodMatch DM Me Here: https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/avik CHECK PODCAST SHOWS & BE A GUEST:   Tune to all our 19 podcasts: https://www.podbean.com/podcast-network/healthymindbyavik Subscribe To Newsletter: https://healthymindbyavik.substack.com/ Join Community: https://nas.io/healthymind OUR SERVICES   Business Podcast Management - Learn More Individual Podcast Management - Learn More Share Your Story With World - Learn More STAY TUNED AND FOLLOW US!   • Medium - https://medium.com/@contentbyavik• YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@healthymindbyavik• Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/healthyminds.pod/• Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/podcast.healthymind• Linkedin Page - https://www.linkedin.com/company/healthymindbyavik• LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/avikchakrabortypodcaster/• Twitter - https://twitter.com/podhealthclub• Pinterest - https://www.pinterest.com/Avikpodhealth/ SHARE YOUR REVIEW   Share your Google Review - Leave a Review Share a video Testimonial - Submit Here   #podmatch #healthymind #healthymindbyavik #wellness #HealthyMindByAvik #MentalHealthAwareness #StorytellingAsMedicine #PodcastLife #PersonalDevelopment #ConsciousLiving #GrowthMindset #MindfulnessMatters #VoicesOfUnity #InspirationDaily #podcast #podcasting #podcaster #podcastlife #podcastlove #podcastshow #podcastcommunity #newpodcast #podcastaddict #podcasthost #pdcastepisode #podcastinglife #podrecommendation #wellnesspodcast #healthpodcast #mentalhealthpodcast #wellbeing #selfcare #mentalhealth #mindfulness #healthandwellness #wellnessjourney #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthawareness #healthandwellnesspodcast #fyp #foryou #foryoupage #viral #trending #tiktok #tiktokviral #explore #trendingvideo #youtube #motivation #inspiration #positivity #mindset #selflove #success

Police Shooting Myths Shattered: From His Own Story. Special Episode. When it comes to policing in America, myths often dominate the public conversation. Many believe law enforcement officers are “trigger happy,” quick to fire their weapons at the first sign of danger. Others assume that trauma only takes its toll after decades in uniform. But as former Roswell, Georgia police officer John Saporsky explains, both assumptions couldn't be further from the truth. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. In a candid conversation shared on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and streaming on Apple and Spotify, Saporsky speaks openly about the Police Shooting Myths Shattered, From His Own Story. His journey highlights the danger, recovery, career, and experience that shaped his life both in and beyond law enforcement. He is the guest on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, available for free on their website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most podcast platforms. Early Career and Trauma in Georgia “People think trauma comes late in a career, but mine started early,” Saporsky says. As a young officer with the Roswell Police Department in Georgia, he faced situations that most officers never experience in their entire careers. From a near-death experience in a traffic accident involving a stolen police car to brake failure in a high-speed pursuit, Saporsky's early days in uniform were filled with life-threatening moments. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . He recalls a terrifying incident with brake fade, a dangerous reduction in braking ability caused by overheating. “When the brakes failed, it could have been fatal. Those are the moments the public never sees,” he explains. Police Shooting Myths Shattered: From His Own Story. Special Episode. And then there were the shootings. Saporsky was directly involved in critical incidents that tested his judgment and courage. Research from the National Police Foundation underscores just how rare such experiences are. In a study of 1,006 police shootings across 47 departments, four out of five officers had never fired their weapons in the line of duty before. Saporsky's encounters placed him in the small percentage who had. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. Shattering Police Shooting Myths Saporsky emphasizes that officers are not eager to use deadly force. “Most of us hope we'll never have to fire our weapon,” he says. “When it does happen, it changes you forever.” By sharing his story, he aims to dismantle the stereotype that police officers are reckless or insensitive in dangerous situations. Instead, he highlights the human side of danger and recovery—the side the public rarely hears about in the evening news or viral social media debates. Life After Policing After years of service, Saporsky decided to transition out of law enforcement. But stepping away from the badge wasn't simple. “Leaving the profession can feel like losing your identity,” he reflects. Police Shooting Myths Shattered: From His Own Story. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. That personal struggle led him to create Law Enforcement Connect LLC in 2021, a platform designed to help officers transition into civilian life and new careers. “Like military veterans, law enforcement professionals face unique challenges. They need guidance, resources, and a community that understands,” Saporsky says. Through interviews with veterans, business leaders, psychologists, and researchers, Saporsky developed a framework for career transition that goes beyond simple job searches. His mission is to coach, mentor, and connect officers who are moving from service to civilian life. Roswell Police Department's Legacy Saporsky credits much of his professional foundation to his time with the Roswell Police Department, which is known for its focus on community policing and public safety. With a population of nearly 93,000, Roswell is one of Georgia's safest cities and continues to embrace the principles of 21st Century Policing and Procedural Justice. The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. “The men and women I served with were dedicated, professional, and deeply committed to the community,” Saporsky notes. “I'll always carry those lessons with me.” Police Shooting Myths Shattered: From His Own Story. From Trauma to Purpose Today, Saporsky uses his platform to speak openly about his experiences and to encourage others to do the same. His story resonates across Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and beyond. “Police officers don't just need to survive the dangers of the job,” he says. “They need to thrive after it. That's why I share my story, because myths need to be shattered, and real stories need to be heard.” The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms.

Tonight, we are tasting and learning about two hybrid grape varieties. The first is Traminette and the second is Vidal Blanc. We are tasting a white wine blend of these two grapes. It is the Stone Hill Winery 2022 Hellbender Blanc.First, the Traminette is a hybrid white wine grape originally bred at the University of Illinois in 1965. It is an offspring of Gewurztraminer. Like its parent, it is perfumed and spicy, but less aromatic than its parent. It is pretty versatile, but is normally made into a dry or off-dry wine. The dry wine pairs well with salmon or chili. The off-dry version pairs with spicy dishes such as Thai and curry dishes. The second hybrid grape in our wine tonight is Vidal Blanc. This is the white-wine grape most often used for icewine, but this versatile grape can also produce dry, crisp wines. It makes a medium-bodied wine with notes of pear, honeysuckle, citrus, and candied fruit. Pairs with tomato-based dishes. Also pairs well with cheeses such as sharp Cheddars, Pecorino, or Parmigiano Reggiano.Tonight, we are enjoying:2022 Stone Hill Winery Hellbender Blanc. I purchased from the winery for $15. A fresh and bright white blend with pleasant acidity. Notes of orange blossoms, citrus, green apple, peach, and apricot. Also has notes of minerality and lemongrass. Medium-bodied wine with 13% alcohol and 0.9% residual sugar. We both liked this wine, but didn't love it. We rated it a three. If you like an aromatic wine, you should give it a try. Next week, we are having a wine cocktails show.

This week on Lady Journey, we welcome Thomas Dale, a hilarious comedian turned spiritual medium, to share his extraordinary journey!

In this episode of Healthy Waves, host Avik explores the power of reclaiming our inner compass and taking radical responsibility for emotional, mental, and physical health. Guests Dr. Marissa Heisel, a holistic healing expert, and Zoey Kyriacou, a licensed therapist and anxiety specialist, share grounded insights on self-healing, boundary setting, and redefining self-care. Together, they reveal how tuning into our body's wisdom, questioning external authority, and practicing practical mental health tools can create clarity, peace, and empowerment. This conversation bridges science and soul, helping you step into alignment and reconnect with your true self. About the Guests   Dr. Marissa Heisel is a holistic healing pioneer with 25+ years of experience blending chiropractic care, midwifery, and energy medicine. She helps women reclaim authority over their health and live in alignment with their inner compass. Zoey Kyriacou is a licensed professional counselor, certified anxiety specialist, and founder of Mastermind Counseling. She supports high-functioning adults navigating anxiety, burnout, ADHD, and boundaries with a mix of heart and practical tools. Key Takeaways   Radical responsibility begins with reclaiming inner authority instead of outsourcing all decisions to external systems. Modern health culture often conditions people into compliance; healing starts with curiosity, embodiment, and listening to the body. High-functioning adults frequently hide anxiety behind success; learning to challenge internal stories and self-talk is essential. Boundaries are difficult for people-pleasers but vital for sustainable mental health; practicing small “no's” helps overcome guilt. Self-care isn't always bubble baths—it can be the unglamorous choices like eating better, resting, or walking outside. True well-being comes from alignment with purpose, presence, and practices that reconnect us to nature and stillness.   Connect with the Guests   Dr. Marissa Heisel: https://www.elementalhealingarts.life/ Zoey Kyriacou: mastermindcounseling.com Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Redha Alayesh, a data-driven marketer and entrepreneur from Saudi Arabia, to break down the essentials of building a marketing department that actually fuels business growth. From startups to established companies, too many leaders still think marketing equals ads and flashy campaigns. Redha explains why success lies in building strong foundations—understanding customers, creating measurable strategies, and avoiding wasted budgets on vanity metrics. Listeners will learn how to move from guesswork to growth, why balancing creativity with analytics matters, and how to upskill teams for long-term retention and performance. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by marketing decisions or unsure of what actually works, this episode delivers clarity, structure, and practical insights. About the Guest   Redha Alayesh is a Saudi-based entrepreneur and marketer who has built ventures and advised top brands across the Middle East. With a focus on data-driven strategies, he helps companies transform marketing from scattered tactics into structured growth engines. Key Takeaways   Marketing success starts with customer understanding and clear journeys, not just ads. B2B and B2C companies require different marketing entry points—context matters. Collecting and using customer contact data is the first step to meaningful insights. Avoid vanity metrics (followers, likes) and focus on clarity metrics (leads, revenue, lifetime value). Experiment before scaling—don't overspend on one idea without testing. Balancing creativity and analytics is crucial; neither works in isolation. Upskilling marketing teams not only drives results but also increases employee retention. Following competitors or trends blindly often leads to wasted budgets—principles and data must guide decisions.   Connect with the Guest   You can learn more about Redha's work and insights by connecting with him on LinkedIn or exploring his consulting projects in marketing and growth across the Middle East via website.

Jason shares his story of walking away from a multi-million dollar family business to build his own path with just a vision, a journal, and relentless persistence. From selling over 40,000 planners to creating multiple income streams and now publishing his upcoming book, Jason opens up about the mental, emotional, and practical side of entrepreneurship. This conversation goes beyond success stories—it's about protecting mental health, finding balance, setting boundaries, and fueling your business with passion and systems that work. Whether you're in your first launch or scaling your fifth year, Jason's insights will help you design a business that supports your life—not overtakes it. About the Guest   Jason VanDevere is an entrepreneur, podcast host, and creator of the GoalCrazy Planner. He has built a seven-figure business from scratch, manages a thriving real estate portfolio, and coaches others on designing a life that aligns with their deepest dreams. His new book, Dream Driven (launching September 9, 2025), guides readers through clarifying their vision and building businesses that make their dream lifestyles possible. Website: goalcrazy.comBook: Dream Driven (available September 9, 2025, on Amazon) Key Takeaways   Balance is possible in entrepreneurship if you design your business around your desired lifestyle—not the other way around. Clarity of vision helps push through fear, doubt, and financial struggles in the early years. Dreams give goals meaning; without dreams, entrepreneurs often end up in “survival mode.” Journaling can help unload fears, clarify thoughts, and keep the mind available for focused work. Taking regular “mindset days” (full days off during the week) prevents burnout and sparks creativity. Passion fuels persistence, but systems and practical strategies make long-term success possible. Boundaries—like timers and fixed work hours—protect mental health and family life. Family commitments can drive productivity by limiting wasted time and forcing focus on high-value activities. Success isn't about building the biggest business; it's about building the life your business fits into.   Connect with the Guest   Website: goalcrazy.comFree PDF: goalcrazy.com/ideaBook: Dream Driven (Amazon, September 9, 2025) Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?   DM on PM – Send me a message on PodMatch DM Me Here: https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/avik CHECK PODCAST SHOWS & BE A GUEST:   Tune to all our 19 podcasts: https://www.podbean.com/podcast-network/healthymindbyavik Subscribe To Newsletter: https://healthymindbyavik.substack.com/ Join Community: https://nas.io/healthymind OUR SERVICES   Business Podcast Management Individual Podcast Management Share Your Story With World STAY TUNED AND FOLLOW US!   Medium - https://medium.com/@contentbyavikYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@healthymindbyavikInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/healthyminds.pod/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/podcast.healthymindLinkedIn Page - https://www.linkedin.com/company/healthymindbyavikLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/avikchakrabortypodcaster/Twitter - https://twitter.com/podhealthclubPinterest - https://www.pinterest.com/Avikpodhealth/ SHARE YOUR REVIEW   Share your Google Review Share a video Testimonial #podmatch #healthymind #healthymindbyavik #wellness #HealthyMindByAvik #MentalHealthAwareness #StorytellingAsMedicine #PodcastLife #PersonalDevelopment #ConsciousLiving #GrowthMindset #MindfulnessMatters #VoicesOfUnity #InspirationDaily #podcast #podcasting #podcaster #podcastlife #podcastlove #podcastshow #podcastcommunity #newpodcast #podcastaddict #podcasthost #pdcastepisode #podcastinglife #podrecommendation #wellnesspodcast #healthpodcast #mentalhealthpodcast #wellbeing #selfcare #mentalhealth #mindfulness #healthandwellness #wellnessjourney #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthawareness #healthandwellnesspodcast #fyp #foryou #foryoupage #viral #trending #tiktok #tiktokviral #explore #trendingvideo #youtube #motivation #inspiration #positivity #mindset #selflove #success

I spoke with Kalai Ramea at a timely moment. We recorded this conversation during a heatwave in the UK, which made her work at Planette AI feel very real. Kalai calls herself an all-purpose scientist, with a path that runs through California climate policy, Xerox PARC, and now a startup focused on the forecast window that most people ignore. Not tomorrow's weather. Not far-off climate scenarios. The space in between. Two weeks to two months out, where decisions get made and money is on the line. Kalai explains Planette AI's idea of scientific AI in plain words. Instead of learning from yesterday's weather patterns and hoping the future looks the same, their models learn physics from earth system simulations. Ocean meets atmosphere, energy moves, and the model learns those relationships directly. That matters in a warming world where history is a shaky guide. It also shortens time to insight. Traditional models can take weeks to run. If the output arrives after the risky period has passed, it is trivia.  tte AI is building for speed and usefulness. The value shows up in places you can picture. Event planners deciding whether to green-light a festival. Airlines shaping schedules and staffing. Farmers choosing when to plant and irrigate. Insurers pricing risk without leaning only on the past. Kalai shared a telling backcast of Bonnaroo in Tennessee, where flooding forced a last-minute cancellation. Their system showed heavy-rain signals weeks ahead. That kind of lead time changes outcomes, budgets, and stress levels. From Jargon To Decisions What I appreciate most about this story is the focus on access. Too many forecasts live in papers that only specialists read. Kalai and team are working to strip away jargon and deliver answers people can act on. Will it rain enough to trigger a payout. Will a heat threshold be crossed. Will the next month bring the kind of wind that matters for grid operations. The delivery matters as much as the math. NetCDF files might work for researchers, but a map, a simple number, or a chat interface is what users reach for when time is short. There is also a financial thread running through this work. Climate risk now shapes crop insurance, carbon programs, and balance sheets. Parametric insurance is growing because it is simple. Set a threshold. If it hits, the policy pays. Better medium-range signals make those products fairer and more useful. Kalai describes Planette AI's role as a baseline layer others can build on, a kind of AWS for climate intelligence. That framing fits. No single company will build every app in this space. A reliable core makes the rest possible. Kalai's path ties it all together. Policy taught her how decisions get made. PARC sharpened her instincts for practical AI. PlanetteAI is the result. If you care about planning beyond next week, this episode will give you a new way to think about forecasts and the tools that power them. I will add the blog link Kalai shared in the show notes. In the meantime, if you are in agriculture, travel, energy, or insurance, ask yourself a simple question. What would you change if you had a trustworthy signal three to eight weeks ahead. ********* Visit the Sponsor of Tech Talks Network: Land your first job  in tech in 6 months as a Software QA Engineering Bootcamp with Careerist https://crst.co/OGCLA

In this powerful episode of Healthy Waves, we explore how inner transformation leads to lasting outer success. Self-realization coach Florence Doisneau joins Avik to discuss how turning inward can dissolve burnout, boost confidence, and bring peace in both personal and professional life. Florence shares her journey from cycles of overwhelm to awakening through the 3 Principles framework and offers actionable insights on tuning into your intuition, discerning your ego from your core self, and why external strategies often fail without inner clarity. Whether you're feeling stuck or ready for deeper alignment, this conversation offers a path forward through self-awareness and grounded inner connection. This episode is a must-listen for professionals, wellness seekers, and anyone feeling disconnected or overwhelmed by life's noise. Tune in for inspiration, wisdom, and one simple daily practice that can change your mental and emotional well-being.   About the Guest – Florence Doisneau:Florence is a certified self-realization coach with over a decade of experience in the 3 Principles, Yoga, and NLP. She is the founder of Realization Hub and The Realization Catalyst program, where she guides people from simply surviving life to embracing it fully. Her work centers on helping individuals reconnect with their core selves for deeper peace, clarity, and joy.   Key Takeaways :Florence Doisneau emphasizes that true transformation begins within. She explains the difference between personal development and self-realization—where the former focuses on external skills, the latter is about unfolding your inner self. Florence shares how cycles of burnout led her to the 3 Principles and the profound insight that we are not our thoughts. By understanding this, people experience real relief and clarity. One powerful example shared was of a client who transformed a tense relationship with her sister—not by controlling the situation, but by changing how she listened and reacted. Florence reminds us that success, resilience, and fulfillment stem from aligning with our core self, not chasing perfection outside of us. She recommends starting the day by connecting to calm—whether through yoga, journaling, or stillness—before the mind races into tasks. Self-knowledge brings mental health and freedom by helping us disengage from unhelpful thoughts and reconnect with our natural peace. This episode provides both practical tools and deep perspective shifts for anyone seeking clarity, balance, and purpose.   Connect with Florence Doisneau:Website: https://realizeunlimited.com(‘Realize' with a Z) Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

Police Use of Force, The Controversy and Crime: A Police Chief Speaks. Special Episode. Few issues spark as much public debate, controversy, and division in America today as policing, particularly when it comes to the use of force. From nightly news reports to viral clips on Facebook, Instagram, and other social media platforms, the conversation often feels polarized and oversimplified. Jeffrey Halstead is the guest on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, available for free on their website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most podcast platforms. But what happens when the microphone is given to someone who has lived the profession, commanded officers during critical incidents, and faced the hard truths of law enforcement leadership? The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Retired Police Chief Jeffrey Halstead has done just that. With over 30 years in policing, including service as a Commander with the Phoenix Police Department and as Chief of Police in Fort Worth, Texas, Halstead offers a perspective rooted not in headlines, but in real-life decisions, policies, and crises. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . On an episode of the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast available for free on their websits, plus on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other platforms, Halstead shared candid insights about crime, crisis management, and one of the most controversial aspects of policing: police use of force. Police Use of Force, The Controversy and Crime: A Police Chief Speaks. Special Episode. A Career Defined by Service and Leadership Halstead's law enforcement journey began in Phoenix, Arizona. The Phoenix Police Department is accredited through the Arizona Law Enforcement Accreditation Program, which emphasizes professionalism, integrity, and accountability. “The Phoenix Police Department was where I learned the foundation of policing,” Halstead said. “It wasn't just about making arrests. It was about protecting life, seeking justice for victims, and building lasting community partnerships.” Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. After a distinguished career in Phoenix, Halstead retired at the rank of Commander. In 2008, he accepted the role of Chief of Police in Fort Worth, Texas, a rapidly growing city in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex. The Fort Worth Police Department, founded in 1873, serves more than 978,000 residents with nearly 1,900 sworn officers. Its motto, “Service with Respect, Dedicated to Protect,” reflects the balance between community trust and enforcement that Halstead tried to uphold. During his tenure, Halstead was responsible for introducing body-worn cameras, a decision that was not without controversy at the time. “There was skepticism about cameras,” he recalled. “But I knew they would bring transparency and help strengthen public confidence. Today, they're considered essential tools.” Police Use of Force, The Controversy and Crime: A Police Chief Speaks. The Realities of Police Use of Force One of the most misunderstood elements of law enforcement, according to Halstead, is the use of force. “People often see a 20-second clip on social media and draw conclusions,” he explained. “But they don't see the totality of the incident, the fear, the resistance, the split-second decisions. Every action an officer takes must meet a very strict legal standard.” The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. That standard is grounded in the Supreme Court's 1989 decision in Graham v. Connor, which established that the level of force used by an officer must be “objectively reasonable” based on the circumstances at the moment. “Reasonableness and proportionality are the guiding principles,” Halstead said. “Officers are trained to use the minimum amount of force required to control a situation. But when things escalate quickly, their training has to kick in immediately.” The Use-of-Force Continuum To guide officers, many departments rely on what is known as the use-of-force continuum, a model endorsed by the National Institute of Justice. This model outlines escalating techniques: Soft techniques: grips, holds, and restraints. Hard techniques: punches, strikes, and kicks when resistance intensifies. Intermediate options: tasers, batons, or chemical sprays. Lethal force: the highest level, used only when there is imminent danger of death or serious injury. Halstead emphasized that the continuum is not always linear. “Encounters in the field don't follow neat stages,” he explained. “An officer may shift from verbal commands to lethal force in seconds if confronted with a firearm. That's the reality.” Police Use of Force, The Controversy and Crime: A Police Chief Speaks. The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. Controversial Tactics and Public Scrutiny Certain tactics have become flashpoints in the national debate: Neck Restraints: Once taught in academies, they are now classified as deadly force in many jurisdictions or banned outright. “There's growing recognition of their danger,” Halstead said. Prone Restraints: Placing someone face down is common for control but can cause positional asphyxia if not managed quickly. “It must be temporary and carefully monitored,” he noted. Lethal Force: The most scrutinized decision an officer can make. “It is always the last resort,” Halstead emphasized. “And it leaves lasting scars on the officers involved.” Despite the media focus, Halstead argued that most encounters end peacefully. “The overwhelming majority of police interactions don't involve any force at all,” he said. “But those stories don't go viral on Instagram or Facebook. Controversy drives social media and news coverage.” Race, Disparities, and Trust Research shows racial disparities in use-of-force incidents, “These disparities are real, and we can't ignore them,” Halstead acknowledged. “But it's also important to remember that officers make decisions based on behavior, not race. The challenge is building accountability systems that both communities and officers trust.” Police Use of Force, The Controversy and Crime. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. He advocates for expanded training, stricter oversight, and more open conversations between police and citizens. “Reform doesn't mean vilifying officers. It means improving systems so that both safety and fairness are priorities.” Crisis Management: The Other Side of Policing Beyond force, another key responsibility of policing is managing crises, everything from active shooters to natural disasters. “In critical moments, communication can be the difference between chaos and control,” Halstead explained. “When confusion spreads, lives are at risk.” This belief inspired him to launch Evertel Technologies, later rebranded as Genasys, a company that builds secure communication platforms for first responders. Their product, CONNECT, is now used by agencies in 21 states. Check out the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. “Strong communication builds trust internally,” Halstead added. “When leadership and frontline officers are aligned, the whole agency operates more effectively.” The Role of Social Media in Policing Today, public perception of law enforcement is heavily influenced by social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. While these platforms help departments share updates and build transparency, they also fuel controversy when videos go viral without context. Halstead acknowledged both sides. “Social media is a powerful tool for outreach,” he said. “But it also spreads misinformation faster than facts. One video clip on Instagram can undo months of trust-building. That's why officers and agencies have to be proactive in communication.” Police Use of Force, The Controversy and Crime. Looking Ahead: Building Trust in an Era of Controversy Chief Halstead's message is clear: policing is complex, messy, and often misunderstood. But it is also essential to the safety and security of communities. “The public deserves transparency, but they also deserve context,” he said. “The men and women in uniform often face life-or-death decisions in seconds. If we want meaningful reform, we need to understand that reality.” The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. For Halstead, the future of policing lies in balance, between accountability and support, between transparency and context, between tradition and technology. “Policing isn't perfect. It never has been,” he admitted. “But with better training, honest dialogue, and tools that enhance communication, we can move closer to the kind of community-centered policing that every city deserves.” The debate over police use of force will likely continue to dominate the headlines, podcasts, and social media conversations. Platforms like Apple, Spotify, Facebook, and Instagram will remain battlegrounds for public opinion, while professional outlets like LinkedIn will be spaces for leadership voices like Halstead's. But at the heart of it all are the officers making split-second decisions, and the communities demanding safety, justice, and trust. As Halstead put it: “We need to tell the whole story, not just the soundbites. Because only then can we find solutions that work for everyone.” Be sure to follow us on MeWe , X , Instagram , Facebook, Pinterest, Linkedin and other social media platforms for the latest episodes and news.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sana speaks with Sarah Stahl—marketing veteran, tourism leader, and entrepreneur—about the mental resilience required to take big risks and create meaningful change. Sarah shares her journey from a secure role as a DMO director to scaling a rural treehouse glamping resort from $200K to nearly $1M, and eventually launching her own business helping vacation rental owners build independent brands. This candid conversation dives deep into reframing fear, recognizing when security is a mirage, and learning to trust your gut. Sarah also shares practical mindset tools, including the life-changing principles from The Four Agreements, and how to navigate the uncertainty that comes with leaving comfort zones behind. Whether you're contemplating a career leap or facing a personal turning point, this episode will equip you with actionable insights to move forward with courage and clarity. *Note from the host - "In the beginning, I mistakenly mentioned that we need to be forearmed before forewarned. It should be forewarned is forearmed" About the Guest   Sarah Stahl is an entrepreneur, brand strategist, and former tourism director who has helped businesses—from local glamping resorts to vacation rental owners—grow with independence and sustainability. After 15 years in marketing and 7 years in tourism, she now focuses on empowering owners to thrive without third-party dependence. Her approach blends marketing expertise, life experience, and intuitive decision-making. Key Takeaways   True risk-taking is less about having a perfect plan and more about cultivating trust in yourself. Leaving a secure role can feel terrifying, but it can also unlock your greatest potential. Imposter syndrome is often the voice asking, “What if I fail?”—challenge it by taking action anyway. The Four Agreements—be impeccable with your word, don't take things personally, don't make assumptions, and always do your best—are powerful mindset tools for resilience. Security in business or employment is often a mirage; real security comes from self-trust and adaptability. Surround yourself with a diverse community to expand perspective and practice empathy. Your energy—whether confident or fearful—shows up in your communication and relationships. Progress often comes from small, consistent steps rather than giant leaps.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Pragya sits down with Chris Brunelli, a multi-exit founder and the mind behind Surpass Solutions, to explore the raw truths of entrepreneurship beyond the headlines of big wins. Chris opens up about navigating failures, mastering fear, making tough pivots, and sustaining balance as both a founder and a parent. With over 20 years of experience scaling consumer packaged goods brands from 7 to 9 figures, he shares strategies for breaking through growth plateaus, building resilient teams, and redefining success over time. Whether you're a first-time founder or a seasoned business owner, this conversation delivers actionable insights and grounded wisdom to help you grow your business without losing yourself in the process. About the Guest:Chris Brunelli is a seasoned entrepreneur with six exits under his belt and over two decades in scaling consumer brands. As founder of Surpass Solutions, he helps companies unlock operational efficiency, strengthen retail strategies, and streamline supply chains. Known for his practical leadership approach and emphasis on mindset, Chris blends business acumen with a deep commitment to personal growth and balance. Key Takeaways: Setbacks are not roadblocks but essential lessons that shape future success. Managing fear requires awareness, disengagement from fight-or-flight mode, and focusing only on what's within your control. Strong business relationships are built on trust, especially during high-pressure moments. Parenting and entrepreneurship share the same foundations—listening, empathy, and balanced expectations. Guilt can be a teacher if processed quickly and acted upon without rumination. Growth stalls often happen when leaders rely on outdated thinking; constant learning and evolving leadership are crucial. Know when to double down and when to pivot by separating internal from external challenges. True success shifts over time—from financial milestones to gratitude, purpose, and team culture. A committed, values-driven team is a competitive advantage no competitor can replicate. Missionaries in your team will always outperform mercenaries driven only by money.   Connect with the Guest:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrisb/ Website: https://surpass.biz/ Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?DM on PM - Send me a message on PodMatchDM Me Here:https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/avik CHECK PODCAST SHOWS & BE A GUEST: Tune to all our 19 podcasts: https://www.podbean.com/podcast-network/healthymindbyavik Subscribe To Newsletter: https://healthymindbyavik.substack.com/ Join Community: https://nas.io/healthymind OUR SERVICESBusiness Podcast Management - https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/corporatepodcasting/Individual Podcast Management - https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/Podcasting/Share Your Story With World - https://ourofferings.healthymindbyavik.com/shareyourstory STAY TUNED AND FOLLOW US!Medium - https://medium.com/@contentbyavikYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@healthymindbyavikInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/healthyminds.pod/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/podcast.healthymindLinkedIn Page - https://www.linkedin.com/company/healthymindbyavikLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/avikchakrabortypodcaster/Twitter - https://twitter.com/podhealthclubPinterest - https://www.pinterest.com/Avikpodhealth/ SHARE YOUR REVIEW Share your Google Review - https://www.podpage.com/bizblend/reviews/new/ Share a video Testimonial - https://famewall.healthymindbyavik.com/ #podmatch #healthymind #healthymindbyavik #wellness #HealthyMindByAvik #MentalHealthAwareness #StorytellingAsMedicine #PodcastLife #PersonalDevelopment #ConsciousLiving #GrowthMindset #MindfulnessMatters #VoicesOfUnity #InspirationDaily #podcast #podcasting #podcaster #podcastlife #podcastlove #podcastshow #podcastcommunity #newpodcast #podcastaddict #podcasthost
