Podcasts about navigating

The Strait of Hormuz has been effectively closed by Iran for more than a fortnight, preventing vital supplies of oil and gas from leaving the Middle East and sending global fuel prices soaring. Some 20% of the world's oil and liquefied natural gas is usually carried through the narrow corridor by around 3000 ships a month. Iran has targeted ships in the area, and it is estimated that over 20 vessels have been hit and at least eight people killed. We bring together sailors to share their experiences of navigating the Strait of Hormuz. After President Trump said oil tanker crews should show “some guts” and continue to sail through the Strait, we also bring together seafarer organisations concerned for the welfare of their members stuck on ships in the Gulf.

What if the moments that completely unravel your life are actually the ones that reveal your purpose? This week, Jessica sits down with Spirit Daughter founder Jill Wintersteen for the untold story behind her spiritual work. Known for her astrology insights, moon rituals, and intuitive teachings, Jill opens up about the chaotic chapter that shaped it all: a federal investigation connected to her partner, life under constant fear, and what it took to rebuild from rock bottom. Through breathwork, meditation, and deep inner healing, Jill shares how nervous system regulation, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and forgiveness moved her from survival mode into alignment with her intuition. As she released shame and healed old relationship patterns, she found her purpose, built Spirit Daughter, and manifested the grounded partnership she once thought was impossible. If manifestation feels clear in theory but difficult in practice, this episode explores why tending to your nervous system and working with your protector parts may be the key to finally expanding into the life you want.

Friendships change as people grow, and those shifts can bring up grief, confusion, frustration, or fear.In this episode, we unpack how growth, life transitions, shifting values, and changing capacity can create tension in friendships, and why our first instinct is often to fix, judge, withdraw, or take it personally. We talk about how asking better questions, staying open instead of defensive, and making space for both grief and care can help friendships adapt rather than fall apart. The goal is not to force the relationship back to what it was, but to navigate change in a way that protects both connection and individuality.

Marie Schwartz caught up with MaryLeigh Bliss from Ypulse at NRF to talk Gen Z in 2026. The old marketing playbooks? They're history. The 20-year trend cycle is over. MaryLeigh explains how social media has created a "firehose" of fragmented trends where Gen Z is nostalgic for everything at once. Whether it's a 90s reboot or a meme from two weeks ago, the pace is moving faster than most retailers can keep up with. We're also seeing the rise of the "AI Detective." Gen Z is hunting for glitches and demanding that AI-generated content be clearly labeled. Transparency is now a requirement for trust, which is why brands like Aerie are winning by doubling down on human authenticity. Finally, the "post-social" era has arrived. Follower counts don't guarantee reach anymore, the algorithm is the new gatekeeper. From the "social closet" (dressing up for TikTok but living in sweatpants) to the surprising return of cinema-going, this episode covers exactly how to reach the next generation in 2026. Watch the full interview for the complete Gen Z playbook.

What if menopause is one of the most important longevity events in human biology, and we've been ignoring it?Dr. Matt Kaeberlein sits down with Dr. Jennifer Pearlman, founder of PearlMD and pioneer in female-centric longevity medicine, to unpack why women's health has been systemically underfunded, undertreated, and misunderstood and what a proactive approach actually looks like.From the flawed science behind the Women's Health Initiative to the nuts and bolts of hormone optimization, testosterone for women, and the emerging field of ovarian tissue cryopreservation, Dr. Pearlman brings 20+ years of clinical expertise and a framework she calls FemSpan: harnessing the unique biology of female longevity while mitigating the risks most medicine ignores.Timestamps:00:00 — Cold open00:47 — Welcome & Dr. Pearlman's origin story02:33 — Why the medical system fails women08:37 — How the women's health landscape has shifted over 20 years09:26 — The Women's Health Initiative: what went wrong13:07 — What drove the reemergence of menopause medicine14:38 — Big Pharma, funding, and the micronized progesterone question17:13 — "Medicine progresses one funeral at a time"18:01 — From functional medicine to precision medicine20:35 — Rebranding aging: from anti-aging to longevity23:50 — Navigating the gray zone between frontier and fringe27:46 — How to identify credible practitioners33:32 — What every woman should know about the menopause transition36:41 — Why take a proactive approach?

Midlife is the time to measure, understand your body, and take proactive steps to support your future self.  In this episode, I'm diving into the massive metabolic shift that happens during perimenopause—and why this stage of life is the perfect time to build true metabolic resilience.  We explore how metabolism doesn't respond to punishment or extremes, but instead thrives on consistent biological rhythms and supportive daily signals.  Even small, simple habits can create powerful changes when practiced consistently. Because over time, these small shifts can stabilize energy, reduce inflammation, and help eliminate those frustrating crashes.  If you're ready to feel deeply supported in midlife, this episode will give you the roadmap to start today! IN THIS EPISODE One of the MOST important upgrades of your life  Preventing chronic disease and protecting your heart and brain health  Defining your own habits that bring you energy and clarity  Navigating hormone shifts and other physiological changes happening in midlife  Building life-changing habits that you can be consistent with  What to expect from my new FREE jumpstart program!  QUOTES “I am more committed than ever to protecting my metabolic and brain health. Even on the hard days, because at the center of everything, your energy, your mood, your weight, your resilience, is your cellular energy, your cellular capacity is what's determining the symptoms.” “I believe a big part of our midlife journey is building daily habits that protect our cellular energy.” “Perimenopause is the most rapid intervention window for body composition change.

If you want to know how to understand Service Contract Act (SCA) wage determinations and apply them correctly in federal contracts, this episode breaks it down in a practical, easy-to-follow way. Navigating the SCA can be confusing—especially when solicitations don't clearly state whether it applies or how to interpret wage determinations. In this conversation, we unpack how to identify whether a contract falls under SCA, where to find the right wage determinations, and what to do when information seems unclear or missing. We also touch on the differences between SCA and Davis-Bacon wages, and how these impact your pricing, compliance, and overall bid strategy. Key takeaways include: How to determine if a contract is SCA-covered Where to find and verify wage determinations When and why to submit an RFI for clarification Whether you're new to federal contracting or looking to avoid costly compliance mistakes, this episode will help you bid smarter and more confidently.

This episode of the Uplevel Dairy Podcast re-shares a conversation with Will McKinley, president of Menn Law, about legal realities of family farm transition and succession planning and common mistakes when families wait too long. The discussion focuses on why transition planning stalls, macro delays tied to reluctance to “retire” and the cyclical nature of farming, and micro stalls during multi-meeting planning, plus the value of scheduling, on-farm meetings, and mediation to address misunderstandings, confrontation avoidance, and ownership qualifications. The episode also promotes the Farm Forward Conference on March 27, 2026 at Farm Wisconsin Discovery Center in Newton, Wisconsin, featuring expert training and a transition panel including Will McKinley.Join us for the Farm Forward ConferenceFriday, March 27, 9 a.m.-3 p.m.Farm Wisconsin Discovery Center7001 Gass Lake Rd, Manitowoc, WIRegister Here: https://pci.jotform.com/form/26047459470916500:00 Why Plans Fail00:25 Farm Forward Conference01:06 Meet Will McKinley02:36 Menn Law and Tuig Merger05:48 Will's Farm Roots08:00 Outside Industry Lessons10:08 Learning from George Tuig12:35 Why Transitions Stall18:30 Keeping Momentum21:35 Case Study Two Brothers22:33 Breaking the Stalemate23:34 One on One Mediation25:39 Assumptions and Avoidance27:32 Setting Fair Qualifications29:06 Key Takeaways Recap31:40 When to Get Help33:24 Menn Law One Stop Shop35:55 Listener Questions Invite36:47 Uplevel Five Questions40:32 Wrap Up and Contact Info41:58 Farm Forward Conference

How did two friends save hundreds of civilians? How did one restaurant feed tens of thousands in a besieged city? What does a former entrepreneur feel while recovering the bodies of fallen soldiers every day? What is life truly like under Russian occupation? And most importantly—why is the Ukrainian resistance impossible to grasp without understanding the role of ordinary people, like you and me? *** Explaining Ukraine is a podcast by UkraineWorld, an English-language media outlet covering Ukraine. Host: Volodymyr Yermolenko—Ukrainian philosopher, editor-in-chief of UkraineWorld, and president of PEN Ukraine.

As artificial intelligence becomes a strategic capability for nations as well as companies, questions of governance, safety, and geopolitical competition are moving to the forefront. In this episode of TechSurge, host Sriram Viswanathan speaks with Helen Toner, Interim Executive Director of the Center for Security and Emerging Technology (CSET) at Georgetown and a former OpenAI board member, about the rise of sovereign AI stacks and the global implications of increasingly powerful AI systems.Helen brings a rare vantage point from both inside the frontier AI ecosystem and the policy world. She reflects on lessons from her time on the OpenAI board, including the governance challenges that arise when nonprofit missions intersect with enormous commercial incentives and rapid technological progress. As AI capabilities accelerate, she argues that the industry is still grappling with deep uncertainty about how these systems work, how they will evolve, and what responsibilities companies and governments should carry.The conversation explores the idea of sovereign AI; the growing push by countries to control key layers of the AI stack, including compute infrastructure, models, and data. Helen explains why governments increasingly view AI as a strategic national resource, comparable to past transformative technologies like electricity or the internet. At the same time, she cautions that full technological independence may be unrealistic for most nations, given the complexity and global interdependence of the AI supply chain.Sriram and Helen also examine the evolving US–China AI competition, the role of export controls and semiconductor supply chains, and how different countries, from China to emerging AI hubs in the Middle East, are positioning themselves in the race to build advanced AI capabilities. Along the way, they discuss whether the industry should slow down development, how companies are experimenting with “safety frameworks” for frontier models, and why installing guardrails may be more realistic than attempting to halt progress altogether.Ultimately, Helen argues that society is entering a period of profound uncertainty. AI is transitioning from a research discipline into a foundational system that will shape economies, security, and daily life. Navigating that transition will require not just technical breakthroughs, but new approaches to governance, transparency, and global cooperation.If you enjoy this episode, please subscribe and leave us a review on your favorite podcast platform.Sign up for our newsletter at techsurgepodcast.com for updates on upcoming TechSurge Live Summits and future Season 2 episodes.--Episode LinksConnect with Helen: linkedin.com/in/helen-toner-4162439aLearn more about CSET: https://cset.georgetown.edu/--Timestamps03:00 Lessons from the OpenAI Board: Governance in the Age of Frontier AI05:00 The Big Unknowns in AI Development: Why Experts Still Disagree12:05 Public Trust and the Risk of an AI Backlash14:20 When AI Became Infrastructure: From Research Field to Societal System16:00 Is AGI a Meaningless Term Now?

Dr. Monty Pal and Dr. Vamsi Velcheti discuss the evolving treatment landscape in EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer, including landmark trials like FLAURA2, novel drug therapies, and the growing importance of ctDNA and MRD testing. TRANSCRIPT Dr. Monty Pal: Hello, and welcome to the ASCO Daily News Podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Monty Pal. I'm a medical oncologist and professor and vice chair of academic affairs at the City of Hope Comprehensive Cancer Center in Los Angeles. Today, I'm truly delighted to introduce Dr. Vamsi Velcheti, who's a professor of medicine and the chief of hematology-oncology at the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida. We'll be discussing the expanding treatment landscape in EGFR-positive lung cancer and how to navigate the challenges of balancing treatment efficacy, toxicity, and patient quality of life in the EGFR-positive space.  Just FYI, our full disclosures are available in the transcript of this episode.  Vamsi, it's so great to have you on the podcast. Thank you so much for being here. Dr. Vamsi Velcheti: Thank you, Monty. It's a pleasure to be here with you. It's a really exciting topic and there are a lot of updates in the EGFR space. Dr. Monty Pal: So, I'm going to need your help with this because I'll be honest with you, I see very little lung cancer, if any, in my practice. I'm pretty much exclusively kidney cancer these days. I'm coming on 20 years at City of Hope now, and I still remember when trials like ECOG 1599 were presented with, you know, platinum doublets. And, of course, the field has changed a lot since then. But tell us a little bit about the first-line landscape, and I think just for the sake of time, we're going to stick with EGFR-positive disease here. What does it look like these days? Dr. Vamsi Velcheti: Monty, the foundation of care remains the third-generation EGFR inhibitors. These are selective EGFR inhibitors, like osimertinib. We've had an evolution of the development of these TKIs. Like, you know, we had the first-generation, second-generation, not-so-selective EGFR inhibitors. Now we have mutant-selective EGFR inhibitors in the clinic, and they're doing a really good job. And these are quite effective in patients who have classical activating mutations. But the reality is that these have not been transformative. These agents have fundamentally changed the response patterns, excellent CNS penetration, and very good tolerability profile. However, we don't see a lot of durability in terms of the response. So, what's different today is now there have been several trials in combination with these third-generation EGFR inhibitors that have really laid the foundation of how we kind of think about EGFR-positive disease. At the high level, there are a lot of challenges to selecting the patients for these combination-based modalities. I'm assuming we'll be talking more about these different trials and different approaches. Some of these combination-based strategies have really moved the needle in terms of improving overall survival and really improving long-term outcomes and durability in our patients. Dr. Monty Pal: And we are going to get into the weeds on this in just a moment. But I did kick off this podcast talking about chemotherapy, ECOG 1599. It does seem as though chemotherapy is still a component of management in advanced non-small cell lung cancer. So, can you tell us about, perhaps first, you mentioned osimertinib, you know, some of these next-generation EGFR inhibitors. Tell us about the role of chemo plus osimertinib. Dr. Vamsi Velcheti: That's exactly where I was going with the combination-based strategies. You know, we first started off with our earlier trials in the EGFR space evaluating the question of, are targeted therapies, are these highly effective, third-generation, EGFR-selective inhibitors, superior to platinum-doublet chemotherapy? And we've had multiple trials demonstrating that, like the FLAURA trial and in the past with second-generation EGFR inhibitors like erlotinib and gefitinib and afatinib. So, we know that these TKIs actually perform better than platinum-doublet chemotherapy. Now, we have a large, global, phase 3 trial data from the FLAURA2 trial, which looks at the question, "Hey, you know, osimertinib is better than chemotherapy, platinum-doublet chemotherapy. Can we do even better by combining osimertinib with platinum-doublet chemotherapy?" So, FLAURA2 answered that question. This is a large, phase 3 trial, and it's a positive trial with improved durability of disease control and improving overall survival with combination with chemotherapy. So, it's a very important and landmark trial, and essentially combining osimertinib with a platinum-based chemotherapy improved responses, deepened responses, and improved overall survival and really changing the disease trajectory. And this strategy is definitely compelling, especially in patients who have certain clinical high-risk features like, you know, patients who have high disease burden or patients who are sometimes having rapid disease progression early on osimertinib, especially with patients who have a lot of visceral disease burden. So, intensifying treatments up front could alter the natural trajectory of the disease. Dr. Monty Pal: So, you sort of alluded to this in that last part there, but is that kind of how you in clinical practice select? Is it based on, you know, visceral involvement? Is it based on rapidity of disease where you think about adding chemotherapy to osimertinib? Maybe you can give us the corollary. Which patients do you just use osimertinib alone in, for instance? Dr. Vamsi Velcheti: Definitely, there are some patients who have low disease burden and they have the classical mutations, like an exon 19 deletion. And these patients, especially if they don't have a lot of disease burden, they don't have CNS involvement, there may be a subset of patients who could just do fine on osimertinib of course, with close monitoring of the disease. I guess we'll get into that later, how do we do that with either ctDNA or like closer imaging or both. So, there may be some opportunity to kind of escalate patients' treatments based on certain clinical characteristics or radiographic characteristics or certain biological characteristics informed by ctDNA or other approaches. Dr. Monty Pal: No, that's interesting. And you're right, we will chat about ctDNA in just a bit. But before we get there, I think one of the big agents that has really sort of come to the fore in advanced non-small cell lung cancer is amivantamab. I've heard a lot about this in the context of even kidney cancer because in certain subsets, I'm interested in MET-directed therapies and so forth, right? So maybe tell us a little bit about the mechanism of amivantamab first, and then maybe tell us about this pivotal MARIPOSA trial where it's combined with lazertinib. Dr. Vamsi Velcheti: So, the MARIPOSA trial compared lazertinib alone with amivantamab plus lazertinib. And this trial demonstrated overall survival advantage, and there were key differences in terms of tolerability and the safety of amivantamab, which is an EGFR and MET bispecific, and there were certain kind of unique toxicity profiles that make it a little different than the intensification approach with chemotherapy through the FLAURA2 trial. So, there's a trade-off in terms of the toxicity profile. It's a different agent and a different management protocol in terms of dermatological toxicity management that clinicians need to be comfortable with. And also, there are certain unique issues in terms of amivantamab; there's a higher rate of infusion-related reactions, there's an increased risk for edema and VTEs because of amivantamab. Certainly a different toxicity profile, different management paradigm there in terms of longitudinal care of these patients requiring dermatological care and like, you know, close monitoring and prophylaxis VTEs. But having said that, definitely it's a different strategy, and it kind of changes the biology and the natural history of the cancers, and we do see some durability of responses that we see with the MARIPOSA. So, it's certainly a great alternative, at least for some patients. Dr. Monty Pal: That was a great overview of MARIPOSA. Now comes the really difficult question, which is, how do you choose between the two? You have these two great options, right, for EGFR-positive patients. You've already highlighted some of the distinctions in terms of toxicity. I think the audience is well aware of the side effects of chemo-doublet, perhaps even the EGFR-based therapies. Amivantamab is quite new. Give us a sense of how you in clinical practice decide between the two potential options here. Dr. Vamsi Velcheti: Yeah, I think that's the big challenge. I think these are two independent strategies that have evolved through the phase 3, and both of them have demonstrated overall survival benefit. So, the way I think about this is in three dimensions, right? Like, the disease biology, the patient priorities, and feasibility of care delivery. So, when I talk about the disease biology, you know, the mechanism is very different, and MET is a very dominant driver of disease in EGFR-altered patients and it's a significant mechanism of resistance, acquired resistance to TKIs. So, certainly I think there's a patient population that could benefit from a MET-directed therapy up front. However, we don't have great data to kind of really demonstrate how using amivantamab in the front line is going to change that. And are there like perhaps like some patients who we could identify who would benefit from such a strategy? Very recently, there have been some approvals in the second-line setting in lung cancer, not in the EGFR space, but like in generally in lung cancer, with the MET ADCs, and those drugs are approved with a companion diagnostic, which requires MET IHC testing. So, what has happened, at least in large academic practices and also I think in the community now, they have been checking for MET IHC expression more routinely in lung cancer. What we have been doing in our institution is we have been doing MET IHC as a reflex for all patients with EGFR, not just EGFR, but all non-small cell lung cancer patients. What that has done is now, like, we have been increasingly testing patients with EGFR for MET. And there's clearly a subset of patients who have de novo MET expression and a high MET expression. And those patients, I've been kind of like preferentially treating them with the MARIPOSA regimen. But again, I have to caution the audience that we still don't have data that MET IHC is going to help us make those decisions, whether it's better than like a FLAURA2 regimen. But however, in the second-line setting in the CHRYSALIS trial, we know that MET is a very powerful predictor of response to amivantamab. We really need more data there, but that's what I have been doing in my practice. But also, there's a lot of patient preference here. Like, there are some patients who don't want chemotherapy, and they want a non-chemotherapy approach. So, certainly there are some patients who prefer to have amivantamab. And now with the amivantamab, the subcutaneous version, the infusion reactions and the logistics of actual administration of amivantamab are more favorable with the subcutaneous approval. So, those are some of the elements that we need to take into account. Dr. Monty Pal: Well, I want to hone in on that because this subcutaneous administration route has been a big debate that I've seen on social media. Tell us, how much easier does it actually make the amivantamab experience? Does it cut down on the rash? Is it just infusion reactions? What's been your clinical experience? Vamsi Velcheti, MD: So, the subcutaneous administration of amivantamab has definitely improved the infusion reaction issue. Very rarely patients have infusion reaction now with the subcutaneous injections. And also, the infusion time is much, much shorter. Like we don't need a lot of infusion time, which is sometimes a challenge in busy infusion clinics. We need to take that into account. As far as the impact of the subcutaneous formulation on dermatological toxicity, we haven't really seen significant difference in terms of the intensity or rates of dermatological toxicity with subcutaneous. The benefits are really with the infusion reaction, the ease of administration. And interestingly, in the PALOMA trial, it also seems to be, even though this was not the primary endpoint of the study, there seems to be some suggestion that the subcutaneous amivantamab seems to have improved OS compared to the IV amivantamab. We don't really understand why, but that's a finding from the trial that's very intriguing. Dr. Monty Pal: That is really fascinating. I'm kind of curious to see how that's going to pan out. I'm going to shift gears a little bit here. And, you know, as we sort of close, I wanted to talk a little bit about biomarkers. I mean, this is obviously not a lung cancer-specific issue. It's something we think about across the board. But what I will say is that there are certain commonalities, and in bladder cancer, we think a lot now about ctDNA. But you've been way ahead of the game in lung cancer. Tell us how you guys use ctDNA, maybe both from the standpoint of monitoring for mutational status, but if you can, maybe offer some insights into some of these new MRD tests that are available too. Dr. Vamsi Velcheti: Yeah, it's rapidly evolving. Certainly, I think in the lung cancer space, you know, this has really kicked off in the lung cancer space with incorporating ctDNA into the workflow. Of course, you know, like baseline evaluation, we still kind of heavily rely on tissue genomic sequencing. But as you know, with targeted therapy, a lot of these patients have disease that evolves over time, and changes in terms of mutational pattern driving acquired resistance is a major issue across different molecular subtypes. And especially so in EGFR, when there are certain actionable opportunities associated with that transformation. So, we need to kind of have like a longitudinal snapshot of how we monitor these patients. So, the ctDNA has come to be like a tool that has now come to the forefront of clinical workflow, and almost all my patients who are having disease progression have ctDNA for kind of evaluating for resistance and informing treatment decisions, especially in EGFR. But having said that, there are a lot of challenges in terms of using ctDNA as a tool for monitoring. There are a lot of different types of assays and different platforms, and being able to use this as a quantitative tool that would be used along with the CT scans that we routinely use in clinical practice has been a challenge. And I think I would love to hear your perspectives as well, Monty, about how you're thinking about that in bladder and other disease contexts. But having said that, I think there's a lot of opportunity to incorporate ctDNA and MRD assays into clinical decision-making. Right now, in terms of clinical trials and clinical development, there have been some very interesting trials that are currently ongoing, especially in the EGFR space. We know that patients who clear ctDNA, based on some retrospective data and also like some retrospective-prospective data from trials that have already read out, that patients who clear ctDNA early with target therapy tend to do much better. They have a longer durability of response. There may be a subset of patients who have, even though they're having radiographic response, they have persistent ctDNA after a certain time point of initiation of targeted therapy. Those patients may require escalation of therapy. We don't yet know. I can't recommend that as a standard right now because we don't have clinical evidence to support that. But however, some of the clinical trials, like the ELIOS trial that's being done right now, that's actually completed enrollment, we'll hopefully see the results very soon. So, there is an emerging thought that instead of intensifying treatment for all patients with EGFR, there may be a population that may be just fine with frontline osimertinib monotherapy and introducing the intensification strategy at the time of emergence of MRD or progression on ctDNA before radiographic progression. So, there are a lot of adaptive molecular response criteria that we are kind of exploring in clinical trials that could inform how the future is going to look like for EGFR and other perhaps targeted therapies as well. So, it's fascinating, and I think there's a lot of opportunity there. Dr. Monty Pal: You know, you asked for my perspective. I actually think that what you highlighted there is the most interesting opportunity for ctDNA: the ability to de-escalate therapy. In terms of drug development, we've done so much to bring new therapies to patients, and now it's a bit of an embarrassment of riches, but the downside is that I feel like we tend to overtreat a lot of patients in the clinic. So, I definitely view MRD, you know, some of these other ctDNA techniques with methylation and so forth that may not be sort of tumor-dependent or bespoke could be incredibly, incredibly helpful. You touched on sort of the future, right, in this last section here with biomarkers. But give us a sense now in terms of novel drug therapies in the EGFR space. What are you most excited about moving forward in 2026 and beyond? Dr. Vamsi Velcheti: Yeah, I think there's a lot going on in this space, and not just this space, but across lung cancer and others as well. Like looking at the next generation of targets for ADCs. And I think a lot of these have to do with…so far in the drug development space, as you know, the improvements in clinical outcomes has been very incremental. So, we really need to make that big leap. And I think the big leap is not going to come from, in my opinion, from the next ADC, but it's going to come from how we tailor treatments and how we monitor disease better and how do we kind of incorporate the next treatment earlier and not wait for the radiographic progression. So, there's a lot of opportunity there to integrate biomarkers and dynamic biomarkers into clinical trial design and incorporating the recent advances in terms of drug design. You know, we have a lot of assets in the EGFR space, the next-generation EGFR inhibitors that are kind of designed with resistance in mind and rational combination, knowing when to introduce those combinations is also equally important. So, there's a lot going on, really exciting times to be in drug development. The one thing that I really hope will come to the forefront in drug development, not just for lung cancer, but all disease groups, is to kind of really be thoughtful about how we incorporate these really cool molecular monitoring tools and creating a composite score with imaging to be able to like really design the next generation of clinical trials. Dr. Monty Pal: You're so spot-on with that. I definitely think that we're getting to this point where, you know, we could think about the next BiTE, the next CAR-T, the next ADC. But, you know, maybe it's time for us to start really honing in on appropriate applications of these drugs, honing in on the right dose and what have you, because I definitely see some issues there.  Vamsi, this has just been terrific.

Falling in love can be easy. Staying connected when conflict and stress show up is where the real work begins. On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I sit down with relationship repair expert Baya Voce to explore why healthy relationships aren't defined by the absence of conflict, but by the ability to repair and reconnect—and why repair depends as much on nervous system regulation as communication. Watch the full conversation on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts. Here's what we unpack: • Why conflict isn't the real problem in relationships—and what actually keeps couples connected • What happens in the body during arguments, and why nervous system regulation matters more than the “right” words • How past relationship wounds and attachment patterns shape the way we react during conflict • Practical ways couples can repair after conflict and reconnect more quickly When couples learn how to repair after conflict, even difficult moments can become opportunities for deeper connection and growth.

Lately, it feels like a lot of people are being asked to do more and more at work. Teams are stretched thin, responsibilities keep expanding, and many of us are finding ourselves carrying workloads that don’t always match the support, resources, or recognition we receive. For Black women in particular, these dynamics can show up in some very specific ways. One of them is the glass cliff, the tendency to be elevated to leadership roles during moments of crisis or instability, often when the stakes are highest, and the margin for error is very small. For this conversation, I’m joined by leadership advisor and keynote speaker Dr. Yasmene Mumby. Dr. Mumby is the founder of The Ringgold, a firm that has helped some of the most impactful organizations in the world achieve their mission-critical organizational ambitions. We discussed what the glass cliff is, why Black women so often find themselves navigating it, and what it looks like to advocate for yourself while leading in high-pressure environments. We also discuss workplace realities many of us recognize—from navigating microaggressions and documenting your work to setting boundaries around your capacity and communicating strategically with colleagues.

"If you can own that you are the issue, then you can own that you have ownership over your calendar. You're just getting in your own way, and you're letting your brain win." In this episode, Heather digs into the reality that burnout doesn't happen overnight. It builds over the years through the emotional weight we carry (often not even our own), the expectations we place on ourselves, and the subtle ways we abandon our own needs to keep everything else running. Heather explores why so many women find themselves stuck in cycles of exhaustion, over-responsibility, and emotional labor, and why true recovery from burnout requires changing yourself, not just rest. From learning how to manage your nervous system and energy levels, to developing deeper discernment about what belongs on your calendar and what doesn't, this conversation unpacks the hidden patterns that keep us operating in survival mode. Because until you're willing to look in the mirror and decide you can't keep living the same way, nothing truly shifts, and eventually, something in your life will demand that you finally pay attention. What to listen for: ✨ The reason why women take on and carry other people's emotional weight ✨ You can't recover from burnout and then reenter your life without actually changing ✨ Until you learn to manage your energy and resistance, you'll continue hiding out "Until you're willing to look in the mirror and to be like, I can't live like this anymore, nothing will change. It will manifest itself through your marriage, in a child's behavior, your career, your bank account, or your body. One of those things will get so big that you can't avoid it anymore. But the symptoms were there, probably about 10 years before." ✨ Taking ownership of our nervous system and a big lesson in burnout from the gym ✨ Understanding contrast and capacity and how to manage your energy levels ✨ Navigating through transition and deeply owning the season or phase you're in "I put my soul on the calendar. I have discernment because I've built up the skill and the muscle to listen to myself and know what feels good and what doesn't. But for whatever reason in the season of my life, there's this new level of discernment and agency that I need to take on." ✨ What it really looks like to own your calendar and experience time freedom ✨ Understanding your unique needs and protecting yourself from energetic debt ✨ The importance of not allowing yourself to get into a survival or crisis state "I just refuse to let myself get into a survival or crisis state. I'll challenge myself, sprint, and lean in, but I am not going to burn myself out for ego and pride. I just won't do it. I want to live a meaningful, healthy, vibrant life because that's to me is what my soul craves." ✨ What it looks like to live a mother-led, energy-led life that fulfills you ✨ If you can't connect with yourself, you won't feel connected with anyone else ✨ Removing all the challenges that are taking your energy from what matters *** We live in a culture that rewards fixing, striving, and holding everything together, yet the truthfeeling drained, overextended, and out of alignment… join me for a one-on-one Time & Energy Audit, a focused session designed to help high-achieving women uncover what's draining them, clarify what truly matters, and create a simple plan that fits their life.

They came from moments of personal loss that forced him to confront pain, vulnerability, and the deeper meaning of resilience.In this conversation, Sanjiv shares how grief transformed his understanding of leadership and emotional intelligence.

What do you do when your life feels like it's on pause… and heaven feels quiet? In this deeply personal and faith-filled episode, Danielle explores the sacred—but often painful—experience of waiting. Whether you're sitting in a hospital room, grieving a loss, longing for healing, waiting for answers, or holding onto promises that haven't yet been fulfilled… this conversation will meet you right where you are. Drawing on the quiet, often-overlooked space of Holy Saturday—the day between the cross and the resurrection—this episode reframes waiting not as wasted time, but as holy ground. You'll hear powerful stories from scripture, including Joseph in the pit and in prison, alongside Danielle's own experiences with long seasons of uncertainty, including a child's hospitalization, infertility, and watching loved ones wait for doors to open. If you've ever wrestled with impatience, frustration, hopelessness, or even questioning where God is… you are not alone—and this episode will help you navigate those emotions with more grace. In this episode, you'll learn: Why waiting is not a detour—but a meaningful part of your spiritual journey How to process difficult emotions like impatience, anger, and exhaustion without losing your faith The hidden danger of attaching your peace to specific outcomes A more empowering way to approach waiting that invites growth, purpose, and grace How God is actively working in your life—even when you can't yet see it Key reminder: God is not just waiting at the finish line of your story. He is present in the middle—working, shaping, and walking with you through it all. A simple practice to try this week: Instead of asking "When will this be over?" Try asking: "God, what are you inviting me to see or become in this season?" This small shift can transform your waiting space into something sacred. At the end of the episode, Danielle shares an original song, "The Olive Tree," inspired by the life of Christ and the quiet witnesses of His most sacred moments. If you're in a season of waiting, be gentle with yourself. You are not behind. You are not forgotten. And you don't have to walk through it alone.

In this episode, Rocky sits down with entrepreneur and creative leader Robert Milam for a thoughtful conversation about purpose, work, family, and what it really means to live a human life. Together they explore the tension many leaders feel between building meaningful work and being present for the people who matter most. Robert shares why he doesn't believe in traditional “work-life balance,” how creativity reframes the way we think about everyday tasks, and why purpose often requires stepping outside comfort. The conversation moves through topics like parenting, leadership, brokenness, and relationships—revealing that the most meaningful moments in life are rarely the big wins, but the thousands of small interactions we stack up over time. Episode Highlights:00:01:32 — Navigating a new stage of life: balancing a thriving business with growing family responsibilities.00:05:41 — Why Robert rejects the traditional idea of “work-life balance.”00:06:31 — Reframing work as the act of creating something meaningful in the world.00:07:30 — Why great art—and great ideas—often come from imbalance rather than equilibrium.00:10:53 — Collapsing the divide between work and life into one unified purpose.00:13:37 — Comfort vs. safety and how comfort can quietly hold us back.00:18:16 — Seeing everyday responsibilities as opportunities to create meaningful moments.00:21:41 — The importance of showing your humanity—even on difficult days.00:27:46 — Why the most interesting relationships come from embracing differences.00:33:13 — The power of stacking thousands of small moments with your family.00:34:38 — Why relationships are what truly make us feel alive.00:36:41 — How owning mistakes can deepen connection and strengthen teams.Get to Know Our GuestRobert Milam is a creative director and brand strategist working at the intersection of culture, design, and business.

What does a truly just energy transition look like — and who gets to define it? In this episode of People, Places, Planet, host Sebastian Duque Rios sits down with Nadia Ahmad (Barry University School of Law) and Danielle Stokes (University of Richmond School of Law), collaborators on the Just Energy Transitions and Place (JET Place) project, a multi-institutional research initiative examining how place, land use law, and community governance shape who bears the burdens and who captures the benefits of America's shift to clean energy. Drawing on fieldwork across Florida, Louisiana, Kansas, and Pennsylvania, they make the case that decarbonization without redistribution isn't a just transition at all.From federalism and zoning conflicts to power purchase agreements, IRA rollbacks, and the structural barriers facing marginalized communities, this conversation surfaces the deeply human stakes behind every permitting decision and planning process — and explores what it looks like when communities successfully reclaim agency in the energy future being built around them.The conversation also zeroes in on Florida as a potentially cautionary case: a state with extraordinary solar potential but a regulatory environment defined by vertically integrated utilities, restricted third-party PPAs, and legislation that threatens to ban net zero targets at every level of government.What "Just Energy Transition" Really Means: Decarbonization and Distribution (4:50)Navigating the Regulatory Landscape: Federal, State, and Local Authority (8:10)Just Energy Transitions and Place (21:39)Why Place-Centered Energy Planning Is Essential to Energy Justice (27:12)Florida: A Placed-based Case Study of Energy Governance Challenges (41:38)Concluding Thoughts: Policy Instability, IRA Rollbacks, and Reasons for Hope (50:07) ★ Support this podcast ★

What does the messy middle and making a career pivot have in common?In this episode of Women Leaders on the Move, Natalie Benamou sits down with former Google executive and author Alana Karen to talk about why so many leaders are feeling the tension of AI right now. Together, they explore what Alana calls the “messy middle,” where the pressure to move faster with AI is colliding with the reality of how people actually work, lead, and adapt. The conversation looks at the gap between AI hype and day-to-day execution, why leaders need hands-on experience with the tools they expect others to use, and how women can stay visible and grounded in a changing environment.

In this episode we tackle three questions: What happens when the abuser is the one who leaves? How do you live with the fear of post-separation or post-divorce revenge? And what do you do when your friends just don't get it?

There comes a point where the version of you who built your current success is no longer the version who will lead your next evolution. Today, I break down the challenges of navigating "the gap" when there's so much more at stake, and what makes it especially difficult to upgrade, change course, or pivot at this level. I talk about the 4 major signs you're being called to expand in bigger ways, what's required of us to let go of in order to evolve, and how to ground yourself when you're in the middle of shedding old identities. Somewhere deep inside there's a quiet knowing that something bigger is coming. You might not have proof yet, but you can feel your life rearranging itself around something profound, now is the time to lean into it, take action, and trust the process.   HIGHLIGHTS 00:00 Why navigating "the gap" becomes harder after you've built success. 05:10 4 signs you are in the middle or being called to upgrade your identity. 09:50 How do you navigate the gap when there's more at stake? 11:10 What to do when you have to let go of security in order to transform. 18:00 How to process + make decisions as a leader who is still evolving. 22:35 Ways to cultivate connections that expand you (even when it feels scary.) 27:40 Why your consciousness sets your ceiling + how to raise it for yourself, your business, and your team. 33:10 What to remember when you're stepping into a new identity. 38:25 What should you do when you know something bigger is coming?   RESOURCES + LINKS Applications for our Spring 2026 Expanders Retreat are now LIVE - apply HERE!   Join the waitlist for the 2026 Powerhouse Women Event HERE!   FOLLOW Powerhouse Women: @powerhouse_women Lindsey: @lindseymarieofficial Visit the Powerhouse Women website: powerhousewomen.co Join the PW Community Facebook Group: facebook.com/groups/powerhousewomencommunity

When one thinks of the "food revolution" of America, a few names show themselves immediately. In that this movement started in California and namely Los Angeles, chefs such as Alice Waters, Jonathan Waxman, Wolfgang Puck, Ken Frank, Michael McCarty greace the list. Not the least of these is Nancy Silverton. A pioneer on not only the savory side of this revolution, but the baking side as well ("as well" might be minimizing her impact, call it "and she put fresh bread baking on the forefront of the modern restaurant menu items). I sat with Nancy to have her reflect on those days and prognositcate on what is to come. Nancy Silverton has a knack for rolling (pun intended) with the punches—whether it's kneading the perfect loaf or fielding questions about a celebrity guest who turns out to be Mick Jagger, but goes unrecognized by kitchen staff. In this episode of "Wine Talks," you'll discover why Nancy Silverton has left an indelible mark on American dining. Paul K skillfully steers the conversation from Silverton's pioneering days at La Brea Bakery and Campanile to the modern reality of Instagram influencers eclipsing old-school food critics. Listeners will get a rare look into how food culture has evolved, from the French-dominated fine dining of New York to LA's laid-back, boundary-pushing culinary scene, and why California's lack of tradition became fuel for innovation. You'll hear about the rise (pun intended) of neighborhood restaurants over destination dining, what it takes to write a truly "doable" cookbook (hint: fewer sous chefs required), and why the simple act of charging for bread reveals so much about the state of hospitality today. Along the way, Nancy Silverton opens up about her formative experiences, from working in her college dormitory kitchen to redefining what it means to be a chef in America—and why she never wears a toque. Thoughtful, honest, and peppered with anecdotes about family, legacy, and the tactile joy of cooking, this episode offers intimate insights into a generational shift in food, wine, and what truly resonates with diners and home cooks alike. Tune in to learn: Why generational attitudes toward food and dining are shifting, and what it means for the future of restaurants How American chefs broke away from European traditions and found creative freedom in LA's food scene The inside story of how social media and the cult of the influencer have overtaken the role of the food critic, changing cookbook publishing, restaurant success, and food discovery forever. #NancySilverton #PaulK #WineTalks #restaurantindustry #artisanbread #LaBreaBakery #Campanile #OsteriaMozza #foodrevolution #Americancuisine #LosAngelesdining #socialmedia #Instagram #foodinfluencers #cookbooks #pastrychef #hospitality #culinarylegacy #winetrends #neighborhoodrestaurants #celebritychefs https://youtu.be/Z2TU7SYb0xk  

This week I'm welcoming back Pinterest marketing expert Heather Farris to the podcast for a conversation about what's really happening on Pinterest right now, especially if you sell physical products.  Heather first joined me back on episode 385 where she shared some incredibly practical strategies for product-based brands that are using Pinterest to drive traffic and sales.  A lot has changed since then, particularly with Pinterest rolling out more AI-driven tools and features.  In this episode, Heather breaks down what's actually new, what's just a rebrand, and what product-based businesses should be paying attention to right now.  We talk about tools like the new Pinterest Assistant, the growing influence of generative AI on the platform, and what all of this means for brands that make handmade or small batch products.  Heather also shares how businesses can stand out when so much content online is starting to look and feel AI generated. You'll hear practical advice on getting started with Pinterest, optimizing your product listings, tapping into trends, and using the platform in a way that actually supports your sales. If you've been wondering whether Pinterest is still worth your time, or if you're adapting to all the new AI changes, this conversation will give you some clarity. Today's episode is brought to you by our Proof to Product LABS coaching program. LABS is where product-based business owners come to get support with real decisions behind growing their business.  We're talking sales, marketing, operations, and just being in community with other people who understand what you're going through. Inside of LABS, we do talk about things like using Pinterest to drive direct-to-consumer sales, building out welcome sequence sequences for your emails, cleaning up your bookkeeping systems, and a whole lot more.

Have you ever wondered why you keep finding yourself in the same relationship patterns, no matter how hard you try to change? It's almost as if, despite our best intentions and awareness, we're drawn to the familiar—even if it's painful. The fear of uncertainty trumps the discomfort of what we know, leaving many stuck in cycles of repeated conflict, unmet needs, and unclear intentions. In this episode, listeners are guided through the origins of these repeating patterns, from early attachment experiences to later life trauma, and how they shape the template for adult relationships. The conversation explores the power of both individual and relational healing, offering practical strategies to update old habits, develop emotional intelligence, and communicate needs in ways that foster clarity and connection. If you're ready to step out of old cycles and into more intentional, empowered relationships, this episode breaks down the tools and insights you need to begin that journey. Dr. Molly is a licensed clinical psychologist based in Los Angeles with 16 years of experience in psychotherapy, research, and teaching at both undergraduate and graduate levels. She specializes in couples therapy and reproductive mental health, with a particular passion for supporting high-achieving women, non-traditional couples, LGBTQ+ individuals, BIPOC, and Veterans. Dr. Burrets also serves as an Adjunct Professor in the Marriage and Family Therapy Department at USC and has been featured as a relationship expert in TIME, Vogue, CBS, HuffPost, and more.   Episode Highlights 05:47 Why we repeat relationship patterns and the power of the familiar. 09:18 How early childhood attachment and trauma shape our relationships. 11:49 The dual paths of healing: Individual and relational growth. 16:35 Practicing healthy responses to triggers in relationships. 18:16 Developing self-regulation skills and navigating relationship conflict. 21:34 The value of vulnerability and facing uncomfortable outcomes. 26:50 Communicating intentions and building trust when trying new behaviors. 30:14 Navigating needs, fears, and the importance of reasonableness in relationships. 33:34 Finding and expressing your voice: Moving from silence or aggression to assertiveness. 35:42 The role of resentment and envy in recognizing your needs. 39:50 Balancing individual responsibility with relational needs and self-care. 44:00 The importance of emotional intelligence and practicing self-connection.   Your Checklist of Actions to Take Reflect on recurring relationship patterns and notice any familiar dynamics, rather than judging or shaming yourself for them. Acknowledge how your early-life experiences and attachments shape your current relationship behaviors—awareness is the first step toward change. If you notice unmet needs or frustration, pause and bring curiosity to your reactions instead of defaulting to blame or criticism. Practice pausing when triggered; take a deep breath, notice sensations in your body, and consider a more thoughtful response. Communicate vulnerably and clearly with your partner, directly sharing your feelings and needs rather than masking them with anger or withdrawal. Invite support—let loved ones or professionals know you're working on new habits and ask for feedback or guidance as you practice. Cultivate self-care rituals (like morning journaling or meditation) that help you regulate your emotions and connect with yourself. Remind yourself that you don't have to be "fully healed" to be in a relationship; embrace growth as a continual, relational process.   Mentioned Shifting Criticism For Connected Communication (free guide)   Connect with Dr. Molly Burrets Website: drmollyburrets.com Instagram: instagram.com/drmollyburrets  

I'm delighted to be introducing a brand-new topic to the podcast: modern grandparenting. It's not a life stage I'm personally entering just yet - but as Magnificent Midlife continues to evolve, it's one that feels increasingly important to talk about. My guest is Dee Dee Moore, founder of More Than Grand, an online hub dedicated to helping new grandparents make the very best of their role. Dee Dee brings a sharp understanding of family dynamics, communication and boundaries - and a refreshing honesty about how easy it is to get grandparenting wrong, even with the best intentions. We talk about: -Why grandparenting has become more complicated and more emotionally loaded than ever before -The growing trend of parents limiting or cutting off contact with grandparents (and why it happens) -How modern parenting culture, social media and constant advice have increased anxiety for new parents -Why supporting the parents - not indulging the grandchild - is the most important grandparent role -Common missteps grandparents make  -How mindful grandparenting begins with intention, self-reflection and honest conversations -What parents actually want from grandparents and what grandchildren remember most -Navigating tricky in-law relationships with curiosity, respect and emotional maturity -Why maintaining a relationship with a daughter- or son-in-law matters more than many grandparents realise -How technology - including AI - can help grandparents stay connected, especially across distance -The importance of embracing your grandchildren's world rather than expecting them to adapt to yours -Why grandparenting is a role worth preparing for, not something to "wing" And more.

Greetings, comrades, and welcome back to the bunker. Today, we're broadcasting live from The Eagles—just 22 kilometers from the Russian border—and stepping straight into the geopolitical Twilight Zone.Usually, we analyze the collapse of the Russian Empire using logic, economics, and military strategy. But the Russian elite has officially abandoned reality. The cognitive dissonance of losing a war to Ukraine has broken their imperial brains, and the Z-Swamp has devolved into an incoherent, Roswell-level conspiracy cult. Evita joins me to wade through the absolute darkest, most radioactive ideological rot the Russian internet has to offer.In this episode of The X-Files of the Z-Swamp:
