In this episode, Shena Gazaway joins us in a discussion of her nurse-led research, providing primary palliative care in patients' homes— where this care is urgently needed but often overlooked. We explore how she leads serious illness conversations, manages complex chronic conditions, and builds trust with patients and families to ensure care aligns with their values.   From qualitative studies to pilot-tested toolkits that empower patients and caregivers—especially in underserved Black communities—we explore what it truly means to lead with empathy, equity, and evidence.  Whether you're a nephrology nurse wondering how to deepen your role or a provider curious about innovative palliative care pathways, this episode offers practical insights, personal stories, and a call for more providers in this vital space.      Shena Gazaway PhD, RN, CHPN®  Shena Gazaway PhD, RN, CHPN® is currently an Assistant Professor in the School of Nursing at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. As a registered nurse working within the community, her practice experience stimulated her research interest in supporting upstream decision-making of seriously ill patients and families, particularly those who live in built environments that limit access to specialty palliative care services. In addition, her work centers on the belief that individuals living with serious illness are the best navigators of their illness experience, and interventions must incorporate local knowledge, beliefs, and practices for long-term success. Specifically, her research is focused on developing and optimizing community-informed decision-support interventions for individuals living with advanced chronic kidney disease and their caregivers. Shena is currently funded on a K23 from the NIDDK and a pilot grant the Forge AHEAD center, a P50 center grant funded by NIMHD. She and Dr. Wells also serve as co-I's on a pain heart failure intervention funded by the Alex and Rita Hillman Foundation. She is a past recipient of the Palliative Care Research Cooperative Pilot Grant Program and multiple internal funding mechanisms. Above all Shena is a mother, wife, daughter, friend, and sister, and so excited to share the next hour with you all today.    Brett Snodgrass, DNP, FNP-C, ACHPN®, FAANP Dr. Brett Snodgrass has been a registered nurse for 28 years and a Family Nurse Practitioner for 18 years, practicing in multiple settings, including family practice, urgent care, emergency departments, administration, chronic pain and palliative medicine.

In a workforce reshaped by automation, accelerated AI adoption, and persistent labor shortages, the demand for skilled tech talent has never been more urgent—or more difficult to meet. The traditional pipelines, namely college degrees and four-year institutions, are no longer producing enough candidates to meet the explosive growth in tech roles. With tech jobs expected to grow at twice the rate of the overall workforce in the next decade, organizations must urgently reimagine how and where they find talent.So, how do companies build a future-ready, inclusive tech workforce when the old rules no longer apply?In this episode of DisruptED, host Ron J.

Growing up, I knew I wanted to be an attorney since I was a sophomore in high school; my guest this week had me beat by 8 years. All of my peers thought I was crazy to have a kid right as I was about to finish law school; my guest this week earned her JD at night while working a full-time job. I could do more of these comparisons, but the point is that hurdles take on a lot of different forms, sometimes obvious but sometimes not. As lawyers we want the necessary facts, and while that's great for understanding a case, people are often a lot more nuanced. My conversation this week was one of the best reminders I've had in a while to slow down and get to know someone else's story. So with that in mind, my guest this week is Breeana Somers, a litigation associate with Ballad Spahr whose practice focuses on consumer financial services matters.Earning a place in 2024's “Ones to Watch” by Best Lawyers in America, her journey has been anything but traditional, but nothing short of extraordinary.Enjoy the show.

Higher education is facing a growing disconnect between traditional academic pathways and the needs of today's learners and employers. In this episode of the Changing Higher Ed® podcast, Dr. Drumm McNaughton speaks with Kathleen deLaski, founder of Education Design Lab and author of Who Needs College Anymore?, about how institutions can realign academic programs to better serve nontraditional students and meet workforce demands. Drawing from her experience supporting over 1,200 colleges and regional systems, deLaski explores how modular credentials, skills-based learning, and short-term pathways can make higher education more accessible and valuable to adult learners. The conversation highlights how institutions can use design thinking, industry data, and step-ladder credentialing to connect academic outcomes to employment opportunities—without abandoning their core mission. This episode is especially relevant for presidents, trustees, and academic leaders tasked with redesigning programs and structures to improve learner outcomes, increase enrollment, and strengthen workforce relevance. Topics Covered: The rise of nontraditional students and the failures of a degree-first model How institutions can implement skills-based learning and credential transparency Examples of how colleges like Western Governors University are aligning learning with job market demands The importance of employer engagement in curriculum design Why internal silos and legacy structures hinder meaningful innovation How to use step-ladder pathways to improve access, confidence, and long-term outcomes Real-World Examples Discussed: Western Governors University's use of skills profiles tied to labor market data How community colleges are building modular micro-pathways in partnership with employers The impact of state policy and funding shifts (e.g., Virginia, Colorado, Texas) on institutional priorities Three Key Takeaways for Higher Ed Leadership: Aligning academic programs with workforce needs requires intentional curriculum design and employer input. Modular, stackable credentials offer nontraditional students realistic entry points and long-term pathways to degrees. Institutional structures must adapt to support new models—program redesign alone is not enough. This episode offers actionable insight for institutional leaders committed to expanding access, improving workforce outcomes, and strengthening institutional sustainability. Recommended For: Presidents, provosts, trustees, academic planners, workforce and career pathway leaders, and board members addressing enrollment challenges and labor market alignment.

Episode 2909: Swing an axe, haul heavy loads, or power through burpees, Leo Babauta redefines fitness with creative, functional workouts that ditch the gym. Whether it's yardwork that builds real-world strength, prisoner-style bodyweight routines, or unconventional tools like kettlebells and sandbags, these minimalist workouts prove you don't need fancy equipment to stay fit. If your routine feels stale, this fresh take on movement will inspire you to turn everyday tasks into powerful training sessions. Quotes to ponder: "Axe to chop wood or a sledgehammer to drive in stakes or crush things or a brush-cutter to, well, cut down brush. This is a great workout because you're swinging something heavy and using your entire body to do it." "The benefits of functional training is that not only do you get stronger, but you do so in a way that will be useful in other life activities, such as work or sports." "Burpees. Do 20, rest, then do 19, rest, then do 18, rest, and so on, all the way down to 1 burpee. This alone is super tough."
