Podcasts about moving beyond

The following synopsis for the January 3, 2025, broadcast of Infinite Plane (Saturn Day) summarizes the host's analysis of media manipulation, the launch of a new collaborative project, and a critique of the “world stage.”SynopsisIn this episode, the host outlines the mission of The Great Deconstruction, a community-driven project intended to map a parallel timeline of historical and media events from the last century. Moving away from the “noise” and “garbage content” of typical alt-media and “Trutherville” cults, the broadcast emphasizes a transition from using terms like “hoaxes” or “psyops” toward a more sophisticated understanding of “history bending”. The host argues that major news events—ranging from the arrest of Venezuela's president to the shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania—are theatrical productions scripted in advance and executed by actors and directors. By analyzing the “invisible prison” of media through a skeptical lens rather than a credulous one, the show aims to provide a foundation for those seeking to move “off world stage”.Key Discussion TopicsThe Great Deconstruction and Whiteboard Series: The launch of a group project to create a foundational diagram and timeline showing the “program” that has been implemented for nearly 100 years, supplemented by a series of visual “whiteboard” talks designed to articulate complex concepts like predictive concurrent programming to the public.The World Stage as Scripted Theater: A deep dive into the “secondary timeline” where fake and staged events are superimposed over reality, treating major political figures as “made-to-order” archetypes and noting that upcoming “historic events” for the year are already written and rehearsed.Critique of “Gatekept” Independent Journalism: A dismissal of figures like James O'Keefe and organizations like Project Veritas as establishment-controlled “independent” journalists who focus on theatrical costumes and drunken whistleblowers while avoiding the “real things that matter,” such as crisis actors and simulated events.Space as Allegory and Worldview Warfare: Re-evaluating NASA and the space program not as scientific endeavors, but as “inner space” psychological operations and “ceremonial magic” designed to promote a “Trojan horse” for global environmentalism and a collectivist “space communism”.Moving Beyond the “False Binary” of Flat Earth: Reflecting on the “Infinite Plane” concept as a way to escape the limited “flat vs. round” debate, which the host suggests was hijacked by controlled opposition and “lore-based” religious cults to discredit genuine media skepticism.Key Quotes“The Great Deconstruction is what we're doing, what we're creating to provide a starting point for anybody who reaches this.”“These aren't mere hoaxes; these are historic events which become permanent facets of the world stage... The place where fiction and reality are seamlessly merged.”“Mass media is a liar. That's the job. Its job is to conform you, not to inform you.”“We're not just connecting dots... what we're doing is we're providing something without any of the noise.”“Theater as a tool of governance... we can see the results of what has been done with very mundane means.”

Today's conversation is all about shifting from a mindset of limitation to one of empowerment and possibility. My guest is Dr. Scott Barry Kaufman, a psychologist, professor, and bestselling author whose work focuses on helping all kinds of minds live creative, fulfilling, and self-actualized lives.

Scott also reflects on his own journey toward empowerment and what it means to truly rise above our limitations—both real and perceived.

In this episode, host Don Adeesha joins Tracey Mancuso, a certified medical laser safety officer and founder of Dermaroom, to define what a true "safety culture" looks like in a modern aesthetic practice. Tracey argues that safety is not merely about avoiding adverse events but is a comprehensive mindset that must begin from the very first patient phone call, warning against the rising danger of "buttonology" - where providers memorize device settings without understanding the underlying physics or tissue interaction. Tracey breaks down the critical flaws in "patchwork learning" derived from abbreviated weekend courses, explaining why holding a certificate does not automatically make one a specialist. She details how DermaRoom helps practitioners bridge the gap between basic manufacturer training and mastery, while also highlighting the vital importance of screening patients for psychological readiness during consultations. Finally, Tracey shares why turning away the wrong patient is a profitability strategy that protects the business from the high costs of bad reviews and complications. She outlines the necessity of robust medical directives and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) to ensure defensibility, urging owners to audit their training logs and commit to safety as the ultimate competitive advantage for 2026 and beyond.

Stop treating data governance as a "data cop" function and start using it as a high ROI offensive weapon. In this episode, Peter Kapur, Head of Data Governance and Data Quality at CarMax, breaks down how to move beyond defensive compliance to drive profitability, customer experience, and better data science outcomes.Critical Insights for LeadersShift from defense to offense Data defense covers the mandatory regulatory and legal requirements like privacy and cybersecurity. Data offense involves everything else that hits your bottom line, such as investing in data quality to save or make money.Prioritize problems over frameworks Avoid bringing rigid policies and "data geek" terminology to business leaders. Instead, spend time listening to their specific data struggles and apply governance capabilities as solutions to those problems.Data quality makes governance tangible Without high quality data, governance is just a collection of abstract policies. Improving data quality empowers data scientists to produce better models and gives analytics teams the ability to discover and trust their data.Key Moments in the Conversation02:41 Defining the clear line between defensive regulation and offensive growth 06:03 Why data quality and data governance must sit together to be effective 11:00 Shifting from "data school" to "business school" to communicate value 13:12 Quantifying the ROI of data governance through customer wins and time savings 18:35 Actionable advice for starting an offensive strategy from scratch Wisdom from the Episode"If we meet the laws, we meet the regulations, we meet the legal, how do we leverage our data? It is a mindset shift versus, let me lock my data down, no one use it." Tactical Advice for ImplementationEnsure adoption through personalization Design tools and processes that are personalized to specific roles so they feel like a natural part of the workflow rather than a burden.Focus on the eye of the consumer Treat every person in the organization as a "data citizen" and remember that data quality is ultimately defined by the needs of the people consuming it.Join the ConversationSubscribe to the podcast on your favorite platform to catch every episode.

Kris Orlowski of Amazon Web Services talks about their recent survey and what it reveals about data, trust, decision-making and AI readiness in supply chain.   IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:   [04.12] An introduction to Kris, his background, and his role at Amazon Web Services. "A good part of my role right now, as we're continuing to innovate, is understanding what supply chain practitioners actually want and need." [05.17] An overview of AWS – who they are, what they do, and how they help their customers. [06.20] An overview of Amazon Web Services' recent industry survey, who they spoke to, and what they were trying to understand. "We were really trying to understand the gap between aspiration and reality – because there's a lot of hype!" [08.12] The challenges businesses are currently facing when it comes to data and decision-making. "85% of supply chain teams take two or more weeks to resolve urgent issues… And it's partly because of the 'data gathering tax.'" [14.14] From engaging in less strategic work to the creation of a risk aversion culture, the business impact of slow and inaccurate decision-making. "When you spend your time firefighting, you're not doing strategic work." "The cost of a delayed decision can exceed the cost of an imperfect one." [17.20] The surprising results revealed by the AWS survey around how supply chain practitioners envision AI as part of their operations, and what the three-step 'execute, adapt, advise' approach could mean for businesses. "Organizations are envisioning AI as an operational partner, not just a tool… An assistant that can work alongside them." [21.21] The 'double barrier phenomenon' organizations see when trying to implement AI, and what those barriers to both adoption and utilization look like. "57% said the top barrier to realizing AI's full potential was a limited understanding of its capabilities, followed by a lack of trust in AI recommendations." "Organizations are buying AI technology, but they're not building AI readiness." [27.17] What businesses are looking for to help them build trust in new technology and AI-powered decision-making. [31.00] How vendors and developers should be thinking about partnership, trust and building the type of AI that businesses are actually looking for. "There's a trust paradox. Organizations want AI that is simultaneously autonomous, but controllable; intelligent, but explainable; proactive, but compliant. The vendors that understand this will build AI that organizations actually use, not just purchase." [35.02] The big opportunities for organizations that are able to make real strides in their decision-making, and how listeners can access the report. [37.36] The survey results that surprised Kris most, and what they might mean for businesses and AI adoption. [41.15] The practical next steps businesses can take to ensure their AI journeys are a success in 2026.   RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED:   Head over to Amazon Web Service's website now to find out more and discover how they could help you too.

Food bank use is at record highs. Meant as a temporary response to people going hungry, it's now a permanent solution. Is there a better solution?

Most companies say they want to be more innovative, agile, and customer-centric. But in reality, many still operate like 20th-century factories: hierarchical, risk-averse, and slow. Jana Werner, executive in residence of enterprise strategy at Amazon Web Services, argues that organizations should instead think of an octopus: an organism that manages complexity, can work in many different modes with some autonomy, but all moving in concert toward a common goal. Werner says the future belongs to companies that distribute decision-making, empower teams at the edge, and treat innovation as everyone's job, and explains steps you can take as a leader to make this cultural shift. She's the coauthor along with Phil Le-Brun of the HBR article "Become an Octopus Organization" and the book, The Octopus Organization: A Guide to Thriving in a World of Continuous Transformation.

Join Pastor Jarrod Walls for a powerful teaching about spiritual growth and perseverance through life's challenges.

We've talked to many design leaders who have burned out after a decade or more of corporate work. But after 17 years at Philips designing health innovations, Cecilia Brenner wasn't burnt out…she loved it. And she wanted to find a way to scale her sense of purpose, so she joined Design for Good as Managing Director, and found a way to work with hundreds of designers who want meaningful impact without leaving their day jobs. This is a preview of a premium episode, find the full episode on our Substack: https://designbetterpodcast.com/p/cecilia-brenner Design for Good mobilizes what Cecilia calls a “radical global action collective”—1,600 designers from companies like Philips, Lloyds Bank, and others—to tackle UN Sustainable Development Goals through focused, two-year cycles. Their first cycle addressed clean water and sanitation. Now they're working on quality education. And here's the twist: everything they create is open source. In our conversation, Cecilia explains how Design for Good measures real impact (not estimated future impact), why they chose to focus on one SDG at a time instead of spreading resources thin, and what it means to design for “all life,” not just human life. If you've ever wondered how to find more meaning in your design work—or questioned whether purpose-driven projects actually move the needle—this episode offers a surprisingly practical model. Bio Cecilia Brenner is the Managing Director of Design for Good, a global alliance dedicated to creating lasting, measurable impact for the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Since joining in May 2024, Cecilia has successfully led the charity in mobilising hundreds of creatives to design in close collaboration with NGOs and affected communities worldwide. With over 25 years of international experience in design and leadership, Cecilia is a catalyst for inclusion, innovation, and impact. She previously served as an Experience Design Director & Business Partner at Philips, where she spent 17 years improving people's health and well-being through meaningful innovation, building high-performing, engaged global design teams and communities, as well as leading transformational programmes with a unique blend of network leadership, team-building excellence, and strategic insight. *** Premium Episodes on Design Better This is a premium episode on Design Better.

In this thought-provoking episode of the Mentored Podcast, Carson Pue, Chuck, and Ingrid Davis explore the concept of moving beyond singular assessment tools, such as the Enneagram, Birkman, DISC, or MBTI. While these instruments can provide valuable insights into personality, behaviour, and preferences, they are not the ultimate answer to understanding or mentoring others. As mentors, it's crucial to avoid becoming overly reliant on any one framework. Together, we discuss the importance of adopting a more holistic and adaptable approach to mentorship. By integrating multiple perspectives and tools, mentors can better address the unique needs, goals, and growth opportunities of those they guide. Whether you're a seasoned mentor or just starting your journey, this episode will challenge you to expand your toolkit, think critically about assessment instruments, and focus on the bigger picture of personal and professional development. So come and join us, as the next 30 minutes can really help you to be a better mentor and entertain you as you listen.

In this talk Peter Doobinin discusses an elemental teaching of the Buddha's, the Buddha's teaching on fear of death.  As the Buddha tells us, if we develop certain qualities, we'll be able to move beyond the fear of death.  Specifically, there are four qualities that the dharma student develops that will enable her to move beyond this existential fear.  The dharma talk is the concluding talk in a series on "Moving Beyond Fear" that Peter offered in June 2025.

What is the thing biggest stopping you from doing meaningful work...When I listen to the service design professionals around me, it's often not the tools or methods they have access to.Rather, and you might recognize this, its often the organizational culture that's the biggest roadblock.Culture isn't the set of company values that are displayed on the wall. If only things were so simple Culture is materialized by actions. It's made up of the lived experiences of the people doing the work day in and day out.So, if the existing org culture is a roadblock, how can we change it?Because as we know, if there is one thing that's great at resisting change, it's culture.And do we even have a place here as service design professionals. Isn't this the field of expertise of strategy consultants?Well, our guest, Dan Szuc has been working on this question for the last 20 years. He's so deep into it that he written two books on this topic Make Meaningful Work and Make Meaningful Culture.And the good news is that, yes culture is 100% an area where we need to play a role.We can look at culture as a design material that can be shaped.In this episode we explore how that works in practice, where you even start and the pitfalls that you should be mindful.We get into practical techniques like "practice spotting", talk about "moments that matter" and explore the influence of leadership (and lack of it).This episode is for everyone who want's to contribute to making "shitty" work environments into ones that are better equipped to help you do meaningful work!Culture often feels like a huge, intangible and sometimes even scary topic to touch. I hope that this conversation help see that there are small, practical, tangible actions you can do to start shaping a better culture today and the confidence to do so!Enjoy and keep making a positive impact.Be well,--- [ 1.

Season 4 of The Trauma-Informed Lawyer Podcast launches with an invitation — and a challenge — to everyone working in law and leadership. In this episode, Myrna shares insights from her talk to judges on how trauma, culture, and integrity intersect in the pursuit of justice.She reframes the trauma-informed movement as just the starting point. True transformation happens when we move beyond awareness to embodiment — when we center humanity, integrity, and relational accountability in every interaction and decision.Themes explored:Why trauma-informed practice is the bare minimum standard in today's justice systemsHow cultural responsiveness deepens empathy and understanding in judicial decision-makingWhat it means to embody integrity in leadership rolesPractical strategies for judges and legal professionals to bring humanity into their workThe importance of self-awareness and wellness as justice toolsMentioned in this episode:Myrna's training and speaking work with the judiciaryTrauma-informed principles in judicial reasoningThe call for systems change rooted in relational accountabilityConnect with Myrna:website: www.myrnamccallum.co IG @thetraumainformedlawyer TT: traumainformedlawyer LI: thetraumainformedlawyer

Are your strongest, most energetic leaders secretly drowning? In this powerful episode of  Connected Leadership Bytes, Andy goes into the archives for a conversation that is more relevant today than ever before. He revisits the very first episode of the podcast, featuring two senior corporate leaders who appeared to have it all—until they didn't. This isn't just another talk on mental health; it's a raw, honest look inside the minds of high-achievers who hit rock bottom. Discover why the "brighter the light, the darker the shadow," and why the people you least expect are often the most vulnerable. Our guests, Jeff McDonald, former Global VP of HR for Unilever, and Perry Burton, Head of People and Culture at Grant Thornton, share their deeply personal stories. They shatter the myth that leadership is about invincibility and expose the performative wellness trap—where "bananas in the canteen" and a single "wellbeing week" replace genuine, strategic investment in people's health. Listen to learn how to transform your organisation's culture from one that diminishes its people to one that enhances their lives, making health the ultimate driver of performance. Key Takeaways The Brightest Lights Cast the Darkest Shadows: High-performers and seemingly energetic, positive leaders are often exceptionally good at masking their internal struggles. Vulnerability is a Leadership Superpower: When leaders share their own struggles, it normalises the conversation, reduces stigma, and creates a culture where it's safe for others to ask for help. Health is a Performance Driver, Not a Perk: The energy of your people is your most critical asset. Asking for Help Isn't Giving Up; It's Refusing To: Seeking support is an act of strength and control, demonstrating a commitment to recovery and getting back on track. Actionable Insights Conduct a "Wellness Audit": As a leader, critically evaluate your company's efforts. Are you just offering perks (the "bananas in the canteen"), or are you actively changing workloads, management styles, and communication to genuinely reduce stress and enhance energy. Schedule Your Own "Self-Compassion" Block: You cannot pour from an empty glass. Block out 30 minutes in your calendar this week for a non-work activity you will not move (e.g., a walk without your phone, reading, listening to music).

J. Chris White, Co-Founder and CEO of scmBLOX, joined host Jamie Flinchbaugh to explore the critical differences between systems thinking and systems dynamics, and how these approaches can transform supply chain management. As a systems dynamics modeler with 30 years of experience covering operations and supply chains, Chris brought deep expertise to this conversation about solving complex business problems. Chris explained that while many people embrace systems thinking after reading Peter Senge's "The Fifth Discipline," they often miss that Senge was actually a systems dynamicist trained by Jay Forrester, who created systems dynamics. According to Chris, systems thinking provides valuable guidance, but when it comes to actually solving problems, you need the rigor of systems dynamics modeling and simulation. He described systems thinking as appreciating the use of data in decision making, while systems dynamics is doing all the math to generate that data. The conversation revealed how he views systems dynamics as another tool in the problem-solving toolbox. He emphasized that it works best for larger, interconnected problems where you need to see the whole system view. He explained that systems are collections of parts that are interrelated and interconnected, all working together to achieve a goal. As systems become more complex, the relationships between parts begin to dominate, which is where systems dynamics shines. When discussing supply chain management specifically, Chris highlighted how traditional "end-to-end" approaches are actually quite limited. Most companies only track orders from their immediate suppliers to customer delivery, but he pointed out that COVID-19 revealed how interconnected supply chains really are. The disruptions, bullwhip effects, and shortages that dominated news cycles showed that problems happening several tiers upstream can significantly impact your business. Chris used a tree analogy to illustrate this point: there's little value in optimizing the leaves when you should have been on a different branch strategically to begin with. He emphasized that resilience is more of a system phenomenon than an individual company trait, and that understanding supply chains as systems gives you more power to change the future. One of the biggest surprises he encounters when working with clients is how little data they actually need to get started. Unlike statistical models that rely heavily on data, systems dynamics focuses on causal connections and structure. He explained that if you know what you're making and have a bill of materials, your supply chain usually mirrors that structure. This allows companies to begin modeling without perfect visibility into every supplier's capacity or inventory levels. Chris emphasized that when companies optimize only their individual parts of the supply chain, they often create unintended effects that come back to hurt them later. What seems beneficial in the short term can actually cause problems in the long term. The goal is to help companies understand how their decisions impact the entire supply chain system, not just their immediate operations. Throughout the discussion, Chris demonstrated how systems dynamics provides a scientific approach to understanding supply chain vulnerabilities before disruptions occur, whether they're global events like the Suez Canal blockage or local issues like supplier bankruptcies.

All progress begins from telling yourself the truth.It's easy to fall into confusion when faced with tough decisions, especially in relationships.But sometimes, the confusion we feel isn't real.We pretend not to know the answers because we fear the work it will take to face them.It's much easier to stay in the comfortable discomfort of not knowing, even when deep down, we do.The truth is, our brains don't like uncertainty, and they'll try to keep us stuck in fear.However, when you're willing to face the truth about what you're avoiding, you can begin creating real changeIt starts with being honest with yourself, so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.Struggling to decide whether to stay or go in your marriage and you're serious about finding that answer?

In episode 581 of Lawyerist Podcast, Zack Glaser talks with Drew Bloom of Affinity Consulting Group about how artificial intelligence is evolving from assistants into agents that can act on a lawyer's behalf. Instead of just suggesting edits or answers, agentic AI can redline contracts, search multiple documents, and connect across platforms to finish tasks before asking for approval.   Drew explains what this shift means for law firms, what tools are likely to appear in the next 12–24 months, and why preparing your data—through structure, metadata, and integrations—matters more than ever. He also shares practical ways to start experimenting with AI connectors in tools you already use, so you're ready when agentic features become standard in everyday legal work.    Listen to our other episodes on AI in Law:  #577: Rethinking Law Firm Growth in the Age of AI, with Sam Harden Apple | Spotify | LTN  #565: Becoming the AI Driven Leader, with Geoff Woods Apple | Spotify | LTN  #562: Beyond ChatGPT: The AI Revolution Happening Inside Your Firm, with Charreau Bell Apple | Spotify | LTN  #553: AI Tools and Processes Every Lawyer Should Use, with Catherine Sanders Reach Apple | Spotify | LTN  #543: What Lawyers Need to Know About the Ethics of Using AI, with Hilary Gerzhoy Apple | Spotify | LTN  #538: AI Is Making Law Firms Obsolete, with Alistair Vigier Apple | Spotify | LTN    If today's podcast resonates with you and you haven't read The Small Firm Roadmap Revisited yet, get the first chapter right now for free!

In this episode, Jack Cochran and Matthew James are joined by Art Fromm, author of "Making Seamless Sales" and sales enablement expert, to discuss how presales and sales teams can work together more effectively. Art shares insights from his 25+ years in sales enablement, exploring the common disconnects between SEs and AEs, and provides practical strategies for building stronger partnerships that drive better outcomes. The conversation covers the evolution from tribal knowledge to systematic collaboration, the importance of discovery before demos, and how to create value perception rather than just showing features. Art emphasizes that when teams work together properly versus teams that don't, there's a 37% difference in sales outcomes - a substantial opportunity sitting on the table.

It's easy to get hooked on those gold bars in your Amazon seller app, the quick sales, the dopamine hit, the “I'm really doing this” feeling. But what happens when the screen refreshes at the end of the month and the profits aren't there? In this Coach's Corner episode, Brian and Robin Joy dig into the difference between chasing sales volume (the empty calories of your business) and building around high-quality, profitable ASINs (the meaty beasts that actually feed you long-term). You'll hear: Why lowering prices for more sales can quietly starve your profits The common trap of comparing your “gold bars” to everyone else's highlight reel How to use the Profit Profile coaching session to see what's really happening in your margins The mindset shift from incremental growth to exponential breakthroughs Practical ways to hunt for ASINs with real staying power instead of chasing every small win If you've ever felt like you're working harder but not getting ahead, this episode will help you reset your focus—and start building a business that actually pays you.
