On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, guest host Sana sits down with entrepreneur and AI educator Michael Elliott to cut through hustle-culture noise. They unpack founder mental health, practical ways to spot burnout early, why slow, deliberate growth compounds, and how to use AI to buy back time instead of creating overwhelm. Expect direct insights on the 80/20 focus, pressure-tested resilience, and using automation to protect energy—so growth becomes sustainable across work and life. About the guest : Michael Elliott is a UK-based entrepreneur, AI consultant, and YouTuber. He has operated two seven-figure companies, closed nine-figure aggregate deal volume, and teaches leaders how to reduce stress and scale with clear systems, automation, and AI. Key takeaways: Burnout hides in plain sight when effort is scattered. Protect energy by doubling down on the vital 20% that actually moves the needle. Resilience beats speed. Hitting walls, hearing “no,” and course-correcting are normal. The differentiator is staying with the hard things longer than most. Slow growth isn't stagnation; it's intentional capacity-building—more time for family, depth of service, and fewer self-inflicted fires. Pressure management = focus on controllables. Prepare well, accept what you can't control, and execute the next right action. Rest is a performance tool, not a reward. Strategic breaks prevent cognitive overload and improve closing, creativity, and judgment. AI should buy back time, not steal attention. Use it for prep, scheduling, qualification, and speed-to-lead—avoid chasing every shiny tool. Build your “second brain.” Feed LLMs with your bio, wins, assets, and tone, then use system prompts as a soundboard to challenge ideas and plan faster. Run your own race. The “right” growth speed is the one aligned with your life design, not someone else's timeline or highlight reel.

Controversies on college campuses have been near-constant over the past several years, and higher education institutions are now politically divisive targets. Administrators are asked to meet difficult demands and account for the actions of the thousands of faculty, staff and students under their wing. A panel of experts reflect on major recent challenges facing schools and share honest thoughts on previous shortcomings and where to go from here. Michael Elliott is the president of Amherst College, Margaret Spellings is president and CEO of the Bipartisan Policy Center, and Ted Mitchell is president of the American Council on Education. New York Times editorial board director David Leonhardt moderates the conversation. This talk was recorded on June 25.
Most of us can say that we're fans of something – music, sports, art, books. But what does it mean to be part of a fandom? You've probably seen devoted super fans participating in cos play at Comic-Con, painted in their team's color at a football game or dressed up as their favorite characters at a midnight screening of a film series. But is there something deeper than just fun at play here? Something that aligns more with religion or even sacredness? That's the argument of sociologist Michael Elliott, a professor at Towson University who has studied the culture of Comic-Con for 7 years. Elliott joins The Excerpt to share the results of his deep research into fandoms.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Kim hosts a conversation that delves into the dynamic relationship between evidence-driven change and the pursuit of social and racial equity when institutions prioritize these goals. We are joined by Michael Elliott, the current President of Amherst College. He has led significant institutional change efforts at different universities he's been a part of. We unveil compelling narratives that showcase how evidence acts as a driving force in dismantling systemic barriers, rectifying injustices, and nurturing inclusivity within research institutions. From addressing discriminatory practices to championing racial equity, we spotlight the concrete impact that evidence-backed initiatives have on advancing organizations.

He developed an interest in radio at an early age and used to sit in on the morning show at his local station which led to a career of almost 30 years in radio, spanning being a live DJ through to senior management. In 2012, after long term challenges with alcohol he found sobriety which continues to this day despite several subsequent life changing challenges.During this period, he also met the love of his life Liz who he is now happily married to. Liz encouraged him to pursue his passion for music and writing and he is now a contributor to the pioneering roots music authority No Depression and his writing has also appeared in PopMatters, Americana UK, Albumism, and The Bitter Southerner.He has interviewed and produced profiles on musicians as diverse as Isaac Hayes, Charlie Daniels, Little Richard, Kurt Vile and Daniel Lanois.

Without repeating the details, over the years, John Hiatt has assumed the status of legend in LTA lore....go back to episode 100 if you need a refresher. His life story is the focus of episode 160 of the show. Is this episode any good? Have a little faith...... Welcome to Love That Album. My friend of many years and fellow Hiatt fan Geoff Smith joins me as we welcome radio announcer and author Michael Elliott to the show. He has written the first ever biography of John Hiatt called “Have A Little Faith: The John Hiatt Story”. The book looks his life and work. The first half of the book tells the story of a talented songwriter who has faced adversity through family trut broken, substance abuse, and personal tragedy. In the 21t century, it' also unthinkable that an artist would go through three major labels before finding some public success at the fourth. His circumstances would have weakened many....but through his own determination, and the respect of his peers, Hiatt found his way. Michael has written a wonderful book that while never salacious, doesn't shy away from the hardships of Hiatt's early life. We speak about how he tried many musical styles before he settled on what was true and honest artistically for him. We speak about songcraft, humour, the connection to David Bowie, why Emmylou Harris makes everything better, and many other topics around Hiatt's life and Michael's book. My gratitude to Geoff for coming up with some great questions for Michael and bringing in his own experiences with John Hiatt. Also huge thanks goes to Michael for providing an entertaining discussion around his biographical subject. If you feel so inspired to grab a copy of Have A Little Faith, you can find the links to any number of book stores at https://michael-elliott.com/.

Today John Hiatt's biographer Michael Elliott returns to the podcast to talk about @johnhiattmusic 1993 release Perfectly Good Guitar, his 11th studio album featuring not only the title track but Buffalo River Home, Angel and The Wreck of the Barbie Ferrari!

A journey through an artist's quest for success, deep dive into substance abuse, family tragedy, and ultimate triumph. By the mid-1980s, singer-songwriter John Hiatt had been dropped from three record labels, burned through two marriages, and had fallen deep into substance abuse. It took a stint in rehab and a new marriage to inspire him, then a producer and an A&R man to have a little faith. By February 1987, he was back in the studio on a shoestring budget with a hand-picked supergroup consisting of Ry Cooder on guitar, Nick Lowe on bass, and Jim Keltner on drums, recording what would become his masterpiece, Bring the Family. Based on author Michael Elliott's multiple extensive and deeply personal interviews with Hiatt as well as his collaborators and contemporaries, including Rosanne Cash, Bonnie Raitt, Ry Cooder, and many others, Have a Little Faith: The John Hiatt Story (Chicago Review Press, 2021) is the journey through the musical landscape of the 1960s through today that places Hiatt's long career in context with the glossy pop, college-alternative, mainstream country, and heartland rock of the last half-century. Michael Elliott is a contributor to the pioneering roots music authority No Depression. His writing has also appeared in PopMatters, Albmism, Americana UK, and The Bitter Southerner. Elliott spent close to thirty years in radio broadcasting and management in a variety of formats. He has interviewed and produced profiles on musicians as diverse as Isaac Hayes, Charlie Daniels, Delbert McClinton, Johnny Rivers, and Little Richard. He lives in Raleigh, NC. His website is michael-elliott.com Daniel Moran earned his B.A. and M.A. in English from Rutgers University and his Ph.D. in History from Drew University.
