Octopus Energy went from £0 in revenue to £12 billion in 10 years. Today, on Nudge, I chat with their first employee Pete Miller, who explains how they used nudges to grow. Hear why they: 1) Encourage customers to spin a wheel to reward metre readings. 2) Give away free electricity at 4pm. 3) Play you the number one song from the year you turned 14. 4) And gave away 40,000 electric blankets during an energy crisis. --- Become an FSB member: https://get.fsb.org.uk/nudge/ Unlock the Nudge Vaults: https://www.nudgepodcast.com/vaults Subscribe to my newsletter: https://www.nudgepodcast.com/mailing-list Connect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/phill-agnew/ --- Today's sources: Shampanier, K., Mazar, N., & Ariely, D.

Gregory Pouy, consultant, conférencier et fondateur du podcast Vlan!Dans ce solo, je lis ma newsletter sur un sujet qui m'obsède depuis un printemps passé à me traîner avec les yeux qui coulent et le nez bouché. Une allergie au pollen. Ça m'a paru absurde à un moment : comment mon corps peut-il traiter la nature comme une menace ? Et de là, j'ai tiré un fil. Un fil qui m'a mené à Paracelse, à l'hormèse, à David Strachan, à Anique de Bruin et finalement à une question beaucoup plus large : et si nos sociétés avaient systématiquement éliminé des résistances qui nous étaient nécessaires ?Ce solo est dans la continuité de mon épisode sur les frictions mais cette fois, je me concentre sur le corps. Sur le système immunitaire. Sur le cerveau. Sur ce que la biologie nous apprend du fonctionnement du vivant depuis 2,4 milliards d'années et que l'idéologie du confort a balayé en deux générations.Dans cet épisode, je parle de l'hormèse et de ses 9 000 modèles doses-réponses documentés, de l'explosion des allergies depuis les années 1960 dans les pays industrialisés, de ce que perdent les enfants nés par césarienne ou élevés loin de la nature et des microbes, de la réserve cognitive et de pourquoi les mots croisés que votre mère fait depuis trente ans ne lui servent à rien neurologiquement, des nudges et des sludges selon la Royal Society Open Science et finalement de ce que ça dit sur notre rapport à l'effort, à la Silicon Valley et à l'intelligence artificielle.Je ne prêche ni pour la souffrance, ni pour le retour en arrière. Je tente juste de poser la question honnêtement : lesquelles des frictions qu'on a supprimées méritaient de rester ?3. Citations marquantes"Comment puis-je être allergique à la nature ? Comment mon corps peut-il traiter le pollen comme une menace ? Ça n'a aucun sens évolutif.""Supprimer l'effort, c'est supprimer le signal. Et sans signal, pas de réponse adaptative.""Le microbiome infantile n'est pas un risque à gérer mais un entraîneur. Il éduque le système immunitaire en lui présentant une diversité de micro-organismes à dose adaptée, exactement comme un entraîneur qui fait travailler un athlète sur des exercices progressivement plus difficiles.""Ce n'est pas la présence de microbes qui est problématique, c'est leur absence.""Ce qui ne vous tue pas ne vous rend pas automatiquement plus fort. Mais ce qui vous préserve de tout ce qui pourrait vous blesser vous rend certainement plus fragile."4. Idées centrales (Big Ideas)1. La courbe en J de l'hormèse : le stress optimal n'est pas zéroExplication : L'hormèse désigne une réponse biphasique au stress : une faible dose stimule tandis qu'une forte dose inhibe. Le point optimal se situe juste au-dessus du seuil d'inconfort, pas dans le confort absolu ni dans la souffrance maximale. Paracelse l'avait formulé au XVIe siècle : "C'est la dose qui fait le poison." Ce principe concerne aujourd'hui 9 000 modèles doses-réponses documentés. Pourquoi ça compte : On a construit une culture sanitaire autour du zéro risque, d'une logique de suppression totale (les bains de bouche à l'alcool qui tuent 100% des bactéries, bonnes ou mauvaises). La biologie dit exactement l'inverse. Timestamp estimé : 04:30 - 08:002. La variation est le mécanisme, pas l'optionExplication : Que ce soit pour l'exercice, le jeûne intermittent ou la restriction calorique, un stresseur constant finit par devenir le fond sonore du corps. Le corps s'y adapte et cesse de répondre. Ce qui fonctionne, c'est l'imprévisibilité : le stresseur doit varier pour que le signal reste actif. Le fameux effet yoyo des régimes, c'est de la biologie, pas de la faiblesse. Pourquoi ça compte : Ça remet en cause la logique de discipline linéaire ("faites la même chose tous les jours") qui structure la plupart des conseils de santé et de développement personnel. Timestamp estimé : 08:00 - 13:303. Les allergies sont un choix politique, pas une malchanceExplication : Le rhume des foins a été décrit pour la première fois autour de 1870. L'asthme infantile a monté en flèche à partir des années 1960. Les allergies aux arachides ont explosé depuis les années 1990. Ces augmentations ne s'expliquent pas par la génétique, elles sont concentrées dans les pays industrialisés et elles suivent exactement la dynamique de l'hypothèse hygiéniste de David Strachan (1989) : un système immunitaire mal entraîné, faute de micro-organismes avec lesquels coévoluer. Pourquoi ça compte : C'est une histoire de choix collectifs : villes sans nature, agriculture chimique, produits ultra-transformés. Et c'est réversible. Timestamp estimé : 13:30 - 17:304. Le microbiome infantile s'entraîne ou s'atrophieExplication : Les enfants nés par césarienne n'acquièrent pas le microbiome maternel et présentent des taux d'allergies et d'asthme significativement plus élevés. Les enfants qui ont reçu plusieurs cycles d'antibiotiques dans leurs premières années développent une dysbiose intestinale liée aux maladies auto-immunes. Les souris élevées en environnement stérile développent un système immunitaire hypersensible, incapable de distinguer ami et ennemi. Pourquoi ça compte : La protection maximale de l'enfant peut produire l'effet inverse de ce qu'on cherche. Pas par faute des parents, mais parce que le cadre qu'on a collectivement construit autour de l'enfance élimine l'entraînement immunitaire nécessaire. Timestamp estimé : 17:30 - 22:005. La réserve cognitive se construit dans l'inconfort, pas dans la maîtriseExplication : Certaines personnes peuvent avoir des lésions avancées caractéristiques de la maladie d'Alzheimer à l'autopsie tout en ayant présenté peu ou pas de symptômes. Leurs cerveaux étaient malades, leurs esprits fonctionnaient. Cette réserve cognitive se construit en forçant le cerveau à créer des connexions nouvelles : apprendre une langue après 50 ans, jouer d'un instrument qu'on ne maîtrise pas, lire des auteurs avec lesquels on est en désaccord. Les jeux de mots croisés qu'on fait depuis trente ans ne construisent rien : le cerveau les traite en pilote automatique. Pourquoi ça compte : La chercheuse Anique de Bruin (Université de Maastricht) a formalisé ce paradoxe avec le concept S2D2 (Start and Stick to Desirable Difficulties) : on fuit systématiquement les conditions d'apprentissage les plus efficaces parce qu'elles ne ressemblent pas à de la progression. Timestamp estimé : 22:00 - 27:006. L'environnement détermine le comportement plus que la motivationExplication : Une étude de la Royal Society Open Science (2023) basée sur 184 expériences et 2,2 millions de participants montre que modifier l'effort (nudges et sludges) produit des effets comportementaux significativement plus forts que jouer sur la motivation ou la perception. Changer la disposition des plats dans une cafétéria fait manger plus de légumes que dix ans de campagnes nutritionnelles. Pourquoi ça compte : Si c'est l'environnement qui nous façonne, la question n'est pas "suis-je assez discipliné ?" mais "qui décide de la friction dans mes environnements ?" Timestamp estimé : 27:00 - 31:007. L'hormèse n'est ni éloge de la souffrance ni justification des inégalitésExplication : L'hormèse ne dit pas "souffre plus, tu deviendras plus fort." Elle dit : un stress adapté en intensité, intermittent et suivi de récupération est bénéfique. Un stress chronique, permanent, sans issue possible, détruit. Les études sur la pauvreté persistante et les traumatismes chroniques montrent des effets biologiques documentés : télomères raccourcis, cortisol chroniquement élevé, vieillissement accéléré. La précarité n'entraîne pas, elle écrase. Pourquoi ça compte : Ce concept peut être récupéré politiquement pour glorifier la souffrance ou justifier les inégalités. C'est une perversion complète. La fenêtre d'hormèse suppose que la récupération soit possible. Timestamp estimé : 31:00 - 34:305. Questions structurantes de l'épisodeComment peut-on être allergique à la nature alors que nos systèmes immunitaires ont évolué avec elle pendant des millénaires ?Qu'est-ce que l'hormèse et pourquoi ce concept reste-t-il quasi absent des discours publics sur la santé malgré 9 000 études documentées ?À quel moment la réduction de friction devient-elle pathologique pour le corps, l'immunité, le cerveau ?Pourquoi la variation est-elle le mécanisme central de l'hormèse plutôt que la constance d'un effort sain ?Dans quelle mesure l'explosion des allergies depuis les années 1960 est-elle le résultat de choix politiques collectifs plutôt que d'une fatalité biologique ?Qu'est-ce que la réserve cognitive et pourquoi les activités dans lesquelles on est bon ne contribuent pas à la construire ?Comment distinguer les frictions qu'on a éliminées à juste titre (souffrance inutile) de celles qui nous étaient biologiquement nécessaires ?Pourquoi notre environnement détermine-t-il notre comportement plus efficacement que notre motivation ou notre volonté ?Comment l'intelligence artificielle nous force-t-elle à réfléchir concrètement à quelles frictions cognitives préserver intentionnellement ?L'hormèse peut-elle être récupérée pour justifier les inégalités sociales, et pourquoi c'est précisément l'inverse de ce qu'elle dit ?6.

In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Prof. Dr. Katja Lotz, studierte Ökotrophologin und Leiterin eines 15-köpfigen Teams im Forschungsfeld Personalisierte Ernährung an der Dualen Hochschule Baden-Württemberg Heilbronn. Frau Prof. Lotz forscht daran, wie wir mit einem „Individual Nutrition Advisory Tool" künstliche Intelligenz und digitale Tools nutzen können, um nicht nur allgemeine Ernährungsempfehlungen zu geben, sondern Menschen da abzuholen, wo sie tatsächlich stehen – mit ihren individuellen Energie- und Nährstoffbedürfnissen, ihrem Alter, Geschlecht, ihrer Lebensphase und ihrem Bewegungslevel. Wir sprechen darüber, warum Personalisierung nicht mit Gentest beginnt, sondern damit, dass sich jeder selbst bewusst macht, wie viel Energie er braucht. Wir klären auf, wie sich Ernährungsbedürfnisse von Pubertierenden unterscheiden, was in der Menopause bei Frauen passiert, und wie digitale „Nudges" Menschen motivieren können, ihre Ernährungsweise zu verändern – langfristig und ohne Frustration.

Send us Fan MailWhat if the most important thing that was supposed to happen this week… didn't? Not because God didn't show up — but because you didn't recognize the moment when He did. In this week's Midweek Motivation, Jess sits down with Rita — former atheist of 13 years and now one of the most spiritually tuned-in people you'll meet — for a powerful, honest conversation about hearing God's voice, stepping into His nudges, and what happens when we explain them away.Discover:How a 13-year atheist heard God's voice for the first time on an ordinary Sunday morningWhy knowing Scripture is the foundation for recognizing God's voiceThe "quiet persistence" test — the clearest sign God is actually speakingHow to tell the difference between God's nudge and your own thoughtsWhy intellectualizing and debating pushes you away from obedienceA real-time story of a late-night call that came straight from the Holy SpiritThe Esther 4:14 principle and what "such a time as this" really meansThe simplest prayer for hearing God: "Speak, Lord, your servant is listening"Reflection paragraph: God is still speaking. He still nudges. He still calls ordinary people into extraordinary moments. The question was never whether He's talking — the question is whether we're listening, and whether we'll move when He moves us. Some of the most important assignments of your life are hiding behind a quiet thought you keep brushing off. Don't explain it away. Stay in the Word, stay close, and when the nudge comes — go.Key Takeaways:God's voice always lines up with His Word and His character — no exceptionsFamiliarity is everything; you recognize the voice you spend time withQuiet persistence is one of the clearest signs God is speakingDebating and "logicking it out" is how we lose the momentDon't ask "why me?" — God chose you because you're uniquely positioned for thisEven if you miss the nudge, God will still work. But you miss the privilege of being used.The simplest response you can give is: "Speak, Lord, your servant is listening" — and then actually listenQuestion for you to think about: When was the last time you felt a quiet, persistent nudge from God — and what did you actually do with it?Calls to Action: If this conversation hit you, do three things: hit subscribe so you never miss an episode, share this with one person who needs to hear it, and drop a comment telling us about a time you obeyed (or missed) a nudge from God.

Today's episode is for those of you at the very beginning of something… even if you can't quite name it yet. Most people who find their way into this work haven't lived linear lives. You've changed, outgrown things, and been through many cycles of death and rebirth. You've never quite fit the mould and if you're honest, life itself has felt like a kind of training ground. Almost as if you've been prepared for something. Then there comes a moment (or a series of moments), usually around mid-life, where something starts to get your attention. A quiet pull. A persistent niggle. Patterns you can't ignore anymore. A dissatisfaction some would flippantly call a "midlife crisis". It might show up through synchronicities, dreams, conversations… or just a growing sense that the life you've built no longer fully fits. Many people feel this. But just as many rationalise it away. Minimise it. Talk themselves out of it. Tell themselves it's just a phase, or something external that needs fixing. In this episode, we're going to slow that down. I'll walk you through how to recognise when you're being called, in real, practical terms, sharing some of my own story as I go - and the grounded steps you can take if you choose to follow it.
**Whoopi Goldberg and Sara Haines Share Playful Moment on The View**On the April 23 episode of *The View*, Whoopi Goldberg and Sara Haines had a lighthearted exchange during a segment featuring Justin Theroux, who discussed working with Meryl Streep in *The Devil Wears Prada 2*. “Why is everyone hitting each other?” Theroux asked, tapping Running Point costar Kate Hudson and Sunny Hostin, while Goldberg looked visibly annoyed, shaking her head. When Hostin questioned, “You want to give Marjorie Taylor Greene a big bear hug?” she remained steadfast in her stance, prompting Goldberg to interject, “Let her tell you what she wants to do.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

What if your intuition isn't silent… it's just subtle? Welcome back! In this episode, we're talking about the soft nudges — the quiet inner whispers that guide you toward growth, alignment, and your highest path. The ones that don't scream. The ones that gently say, “This way.” If you're self-led, evolving, and actively doing this work, you've felt them. The idea that won't leave you alone. The subtle discomfort that keeps resurfacing. The dream that keeps tapping on your shoulder. The small change you've been thinking about for months (or years). Your intuition is your inner GPS. It recalibrates. It waits. It never shames you. It simply continues guiding you toward your highest good. In this episode, we explore: What intuition actually feels like (and how it differs from fear) Why soft nudges whisper instead of yell How to recognize when your body is guiding you The power of acting on small, subtle guidance Why ignoring nudges eventually leads to louder wake-up calls A personal story about one tiny nudge that created a massive internal shift We also reflect on those moments in your life where you knew long before you acted — leaving a relationship, changing a job, starting something new, or even something as simple as changing your hair. No shame. Just awareness. Because when you look back, you'll often see: You were being guided the whole time. Intuition invites expansion. Fear creates constriction. One feels calm and grounded. The other feels loud and chaotic. Learning the difference changes everything. Your inner guidance is always working through you — offering breadcrumbs, downloads, gentle suggestions, and subtle redirections. The question isn't whether guidance is available. The question is: will you listen? Reflection Prompts What is one soft nudge I've been feeling lately? When have I ignored my intuition in the past — and what did I learn from that? What would shift if I trusted my inner guidance sooner rather than later? What is one small action I can take today to honour a subtle nudge? ...... MENTIONED
Patty Laushman, a speaker, autism life coach, and the author of the book Parenting for Independence: Overcoming Failure to Launch in Autistic Emerging Adults, joins me to talk about one of the misunderstood stages of parenting: supporting our neurodivergent kids as they move into emerging adulthood. In our conversation, Patty and I unpack the concept of “failure to launch,” why that label is actually unhelpful and inaccurate, and how redefining independence can change everything. We talk about self-determination, motivation, and what support actually looks like during this phase of life. Patty also shares her SBN parenting framework—Support, Boundaries, and Nudges—and offers grounded, compassionate guidance for navigating this transition while strengthening trust and connection along the way. About Patty Laushman Patty Laushman is an author, speaker, educator, and coach who specializes in supporting neurodivergent individuals and the families who love them. With both personal and professional experience, she deeply understands the challenges of being neurodivergent in a world designed for those who are more neurotypical—and the transformative power of the right kind of support. She is the founder and head coach at Thrive Autism Coaching, where she and her team help neurodivergent teens and adults, as well as their parents, build the skills and confidence needed to thrive. Patty developed the SBN™ parenting framework, a step-by-step system that teaches parents how to use support, boundaries, and nudges to help their autistic emerging adults reclaim motivation, build momentum, and move toward more meaningful lives on their own terms. Through her Parenting for Independence group coaching program, Patty has guided hundreds of families through this unexpected stage of parenting—helping them rebuild trust, strengthen relationships, and finally start seeing progress.

What if your intuition isn't silent… it's just subtle? Welcome back! In this episode, we're talking about the soft nudges — the quiet inner whispers that guide you toward growth, alignment, and your highest path. The ones that don't scream. The ones that gently say, “This way.” If you're self-led, evolving, and actively doing this work, you've felt them. The idea that won't leave you alone. The subtle discomfort that keeps resurfacing. The dream that keeps tapping on your shoulder. The small change you've been thinking about for months (or years). Your intuition is your inner GPS. It recalibrates. It waits. It never shames you. It simply continues guiding you toward your highest good. In this episode, we explore: What intuition actually feels like (and how it differs from fear) Why soft nudges whisper instead of yell How to recognize when your body is guiding you The power of acting on small, subtle guidance Why ignoring nudges eventually leads to louder wake-up calls A personal story about one tiny nudge that created a massive internal shift We also reflect on those moments in your life where you knew long before you acted — leaving a relationship, changing a job, starting something new, or even something as simple as changing your hair. No shame. Just awareness. Because when you look back, you'll often see: You were being guided the whole time. Intuition invites expansion. Fear creates constriction. One feels calm and grounded. The other feels loud and chaotic. Learning the difference changes everything. Your inner guidance is always working through you — offering breadcrumbs, downloads, gentle suggestions, and subtle redirections. The question isn't whether guidance is available. The question is: will you listen? Reflection Prompts What is one soft nudge I've been feeling lately? When have I ignored my intuition in the past — and what did I learn from that? What would shift if I trusted my inner guidance sooner rather than later? What is one small action I can take today to honour a subtle nudge? ...... MENTIONED

In this episode of the Shift AI Podcast, Scott Roberts, CISO at UiPath, joins host Boaz Ashkenazy for a deep dive into how agentic AI is reshaping enterprise security and automation—both for customers and inside UiPath itself.Scott shares his 25-year security journey spanning Microsoft's early Security Response Center days (including the era that produced Patch Tuesday and the Security Development Lifecycle), product security work across Windows and Xbox, time at AWS, and leadership roles at Google where he helped build the Android Security Assurance and Pixel Security teams and the Android Monthly Security Update process. He also discusses his work in security standards across IPsec, HTML5 encrypted media, GSMA device security, and most recently, contributions to emerging agentic AI security standards.The conversation then explores UiPath's evolution from traditional RPA into a unified platform that combines deterministic automation with agentic workflows. Scott walks through a real-world healthcare billing example where agentic automation increased deduplication accuracy dramatically by handling complex, variable inputs that classic RPA struggled with—while still keeping humans in the loop and feeding outcomes back into the system to improve over time.Boaz and Scott go deep on what's changed for CISOs in the post-LLM world: the need for guardrails, identity and entitlements for AI agents, and the challenge of end users copying sensitive information into consumer AI tools. Scott explains UiPath's approach: enable adoption while using nudges and policy controls to redirect sensitive workflows into enterprise-safe environments rather than relying solely on blocks.The episode closes with an eye-opening look at UiPath's internal “agentic threat analyst” system—an orchestration of 60+ agents that can investigate SIEM alerts end-to-end, generate structured incident writeups, and compress hours of analyst work into roughly a minute and a half. Scott's future-looking takeaway: as AI models evolve beyond “read-only” into potentially “read-write” systems that can update their foundational knowledge, the acceleration could be truly mind-blowing.This episode is essential listening for security leaders, enterprise operators, and automation teams trying to understand how agentic systems change not just productivity, but the entire security operating model.Chapters[00:01] Scott's Security Journey: Microsoft, Google, Coinbase, UiPath[01:33] Security Standards Work: From IPsec to Agentic AI Standards[04:08] What UiPath Does: Process Orchestration, RPA, and Enterprise Automation[06:28] RPA vs Agentic Automation: A Healthcare Billing Deduplication Example[09:17] The Agentic Stack: Canvas, Guardrails, and the AI Trust Layer[10:31] How LLMs Change Security: Data Controls, Access, and Governance[12:14] Internal Adoption at UiPath: AI Tooling by Persona (Legal, Finance, Engineering)[13:13] Code Velocity and Security: Agents Generating Code, Agents Verifying It[15:53] Two AI Security Worlds: Orchestration Platforms vs End-User Chat Interfaces[17:11] Securing End Users: Enterprise LLMs, Nudges, and Browser-Based Controls[19:07] Sovereign AI and Data Boundaries: Keeping Data in the Right Region[21:00] Over-Permissioning Meets Agents: Why AI Makes Old Problems Obvious Fast[22:21] The Next Wave: AI Transforming the Entire SDLC End-to-End[24:53] Security Pitfalls in Agentic SDLC: Misaligned Incentives and Permissions[26:02] UiPath's Agentic Threat Analyst: 60+ Agents, SIEM to Writeup Automation[30:07] What Changes for Humans: Faster “Time to Truth” and Higher-Leverage Work[32:09] Two-Word Future: “Mind Blowing” and Read/Write ModelsConnect with Scott RobertsLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottroberts6/Connect with Boaz AshkenazyLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/boazashkenazy/Email: info@shiftai.fm
Have you ever felt God quietly prompting you to do something—and chosen not to listen? In this episode, we explore what can happen when we ignore God's gentle invitations. With honesty and compassion, we reflect on how God speaks, why His nudges are easy to dismiss, and what the consequences of not responding can look like over time. You're invited into a moment of reflection, a simple journal prompt, and a closing prayer to help you notice where God may be speaking—and how you might respond. >> Get Your Personalized Journaling Guide (PDF) http://lovedoesthat.org/journalguide RELATED EPISODES: · Episode 201: Ways We Ignore God's Leading · Episode 184: Could This Be Why You're Not Hearing from God? ______ >> Free Journaling Workshop: 3 ways to encounter God on the pages of your journal http://lovedoesthat.org/journalingworkshop >> Journal Gently Program: 8 week writing program to start healing from grief and trauma http://lovedoesthat.org/journalgently >> Book Kari as a speaker for your next event: http://lovedoesthat.org/speaking

Obesity is one of the most pressing health challenges of our time, yet public campaigns on diet and exercise have struggled to reverse rising global rates.Assistant Professor Xuan Zhang from the School of Economics at Singapore Management University explores how a simple, low-cost intervention – a series of short, personalised text messages – can help people better understand their weight classification and adopt healthier habits.Her team's randomised controlled trial found that regular digital reminders significantly improved weight perception and diet among older adults, showing how behavioural insights can drive meaningful change in public health.Read the original research: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jebo.2024.04.029
Leadership training is rarely short on inspiration, but it's often short on impact. In this episode of Sticky From The Inside, Andy Goram is joined by Dr Jenn Yugo, Managing Director of Corvirtus and an industrial–organisational psychologist, to explore why so much leadership training fails to create lasting behaviour change. Jenn explains that the problem isn't motivation, effort, or even the quality of the training itself. It's that organisations treat behaviour change as a one-off learning event rather than a system supported by environment, habits, identity and social reinforcement. Together, Andy and Jenn unpack what the science of behaviour change actually tells us, from the forgetting curve and feedback loops, to the powerful role of values, authenticity and team involvement. This conversation challenges the idea that leaders need to “do more”, and instead reframes leadership growth as doing things differently, consistently, and together. If you've ever wondered why great leadership intentions fade once people return to the day job, this episode offers a grounded, human, and evidence-based answer. ----more---- Key Takeaways One-off learning moments aren't enough. The forgetting curve shows how quickly knowledge fades without reinforcement. Leadership training isn't a motivation problem, it's a behaviour change problem. Jenn reframes development as sustained behavioural shift, not information intake. Environment beats willpower. Feedback loops, systems and social support matter more than personal discipline. Lasting change is social, not solo. Leaders who involve their teams in their development see far greater impact over time. ----more---- Key Moments The key moments in this episode are: 01:11 – Why Leadership Training Creates Energy but Rarely Lasts 03:52 – Introducing Jenn Yugo and Her Work in Behavioural Psychology 06:20 – Moving from Academia to Business: Applying Behavioural Science at Work 09:15 – Leadership Development as a Behaviour Change Challenge 13:10 – The Science Behind Why Training Is Quickly Forgotten 16:40 – Why Leaders Blame Themselves When Change Doesn't Stick 20:05 – The Role of Environment, Feedback Loops and Daily Systems 24:10 – Values, Identity and Authenticity in Leadership Behaviour Change 28:40 – Involving Teams in Leadership Development to Reinforce Change 32:55 – Open Learning, Peer Connection and Cross-Organisational Insight 37:15 – Designing Leadership Development as a Journey, Not an Event 42:10 – Sustaining Behaviour Change Through Habits, Nudges and Measurement ----more---- Join The Conversation Find Andy Goram on LinkedIn here Listen to the Podcast on YouTube here Follow the Podcast on Instagram here Follow the Podcast on Twitter here Follow the Podcast on Facebook here Check out the Bizjuicer website here Get a free consultation with Andy here Check out the Bizjuicer blog here Download the podcast here ----more---- Useful Links Follow Dr Jenn Yugo on LinkedIn here Find the Corvirtus website here ----more---- Full Episode Transcript Get the full transcript of the episode here
Behavioral Science For Brands: Leveraging behavioral science in brand marketing.
In this episode, we explore how to apply behavioral science to drive culture change and performance inside organizations. From using social proof and friction reduction to regret lotteries and purposeful work, we unpack four practical nudges that help teams adopt new behaviors and adapt to change.
If it's your calling… it won't let you hide. It won't quiet down just because you're tired, overwhelmed, or trying to convince yourself that “now isn't the right time.” A true calling is persistent — divine GPS that keeps recalculating until you finally step into the version of yourself you were designed to become. In today's episode, Aubrey dives into the sacred (and sometimes wildly uncomfortable) truth about purpose: you cannot outrun what God stitched into your soul. With the current cosmic energy pushing women into deeper alignment, this season is awakening intuition, dissolving old patterns, and cracking open a new level of feminine leadership. Aubrey shares her own experience of trying to go quiet this year — pulling back on promoting her mentorship spots — only to watch clients continue to show up anyway. Because when you're wired for transformation work, your calling doesn't take a day off. Inside this episode you'll explore: ✨ Why your purpose keeps looping back until you answer ✨ The astrological and energetic shifts amplifying women's inner truth ✨ How your body, intuition, and inner authority lead long before your mind catches up ✨ The moment calling turns into embodiment — and why that changes everything ✨ What it looks like to finally stop resisting the life God is pulling you toward This conversation is a reminder and a reckoning: Your calling isn't giving up on you. Maybe it's time to stop giving up on it. At the end of the episode, Aubrey opens the door to Embodied — A Feminine Leadership Experience, her upcoming transformative container for the woman who is ready to live the truth she's already discovered.

Questions? Comments? Text Us!How do we recognize when God is gently guiding us? Is it a voice, a feeling, or a moment of connection we might almost overlook?Scott shares a simple encounter at a bagel shop that turned into a surprising moment of synchronicity — a reminder that a radically personal God often reaches us through quiet intuition and ordinary experiences. Jerry reflects on why these subtle encounters matter, how spiritual discernment develops through humility rather than ego, and why integrity is essential to recognizing and responding to divine nudges.This conversation invites listeners to notice the signs of God's presence that show up not as grand events but as meaningful interactions, inner clarity, and the feeling that something is simply right.

Through engaging examples, such as air conditioning purchases and subscription services, listeners will discover how small adjustments to defaults can lead to substantial changes in customer behavior and improve business outcomes. As Melina prepares for her upcoming conversation with Nobel Prize-winning economist Richard Thaler, she emphasizes the ethical application of nudges and the importance of aligning defaults with customer needs. This episode is packed with actionable insights for businesses looking to implement behavioral science principles effectively. In this episode: Understand the significance of defaults in behavioral economics. Explore the difference between true defaults and implied defaults. Learn how to frame choices to influence customer decisions positively. Discover practical examples of defaults in various industries. Reflect on the ethical implications of nudging in business.

This week's Nicole's Nudge is a reminder not to overlook the feet. Our patients' mechanics are influenced both from the top down and the bottom up. By assessing the foot, mid-foot, and rearfoot, we can uncover important contributors to pelvic floor dysfunction—or confidently check them off as not contributing to the issue. Nicole's Nudges are short, focused trainings designed to help you sharpen your skills and get back to the basics. Each one gives you a simple challenge you can apply directly with patients in your practice.Your Challenge: The 80-foot challenge (or however many patients you see this week) - spend a few minutes assessing the foot in every patient on your caseload. Yes, all of them! We'll walk through how to incorporate foot assessment into an evaluation, how to prioritize what to focus on, and how to communicate clearly with patients when something isn't relevant. ➡️ Explore more clinical resources to support your growth at www.pelvicptrising.comAbout UsNicole and Jesse Cozean founded Pelvic PT Rising to provide clinical and business resources to physical therapists to change the way we treat pelvic health.

In this first Nicole's Nudge episode, we're diving into two powerful questions you can use to unlock your patient's true goals during their evaluation. Too often, we get caught up in the symptoms without uncovering what really scares our patients—or how their life would change if those symptoms disappeared. These questions can shift the entire course of care and strengthen the therapeutic alliance right from the start.Listen in as we share the exact phrasing for these questions, why they matter, and how you can implement them with patients this week. Nicole's Nudges are short, bite-sized episodes designed to help you refocus on the fundamentals of pelvic health care. Each week we'll give you a specific, actionable challenge you can use in the clinic right away. Simple, practical, and practice-changing.Your Challenge: Use the two questions in this 'sode with your patients - either on the evaluation or follow-up visit.

There's family drama with stubborn aging parents, forgotten birthdays turned into impromptu dinners, and the relatable struggle of partners who accumulate hobby gear but never actually use it.

In this fascinating episode of Parallax, Dr Ankur Kalra sits down with Dr Alexander Fanaroff, an interventional cardiologist, clinical trialist, and behavioral economist at the University of Pennsylvania. Dr Fanaroff brings a unique perspective to cardiovascular medicine, combining his expertise in interventional cardiology with cutting-edge insights from behavioral economics to transform how we approach patient care and clinical decision-making. Dr Fanaroff demystifies behavioral economics for the medical community, explaining how this field studies real-world decision-making beyond traditional economic models. He introduces key concepts like status quo bias, prospect theory, and the power of defaults in shaping both physician and patient behaviors. Through compelling examples, including Penn's successful intervention that increased 90-day statin prescriptions from 70% to 90% simply by changing EHR defaults, Dr Fanaroff demonstrates how small design changes can yield significant clinical improvements. Looking beyond individual interventions, Dr Fanaroff discusses how behavioral economics can address healthcare disparities by creating system-wide improvements that lift all patients while specifically targeting underserved communities. He envisions a future where AI identifies at-risk patients from routine imaging, and where interventional cardiologists focus not just on procedural excellence but on ensuring optimal long-term medical management through thoughtfully designed care systems. Questions and comments can be sent to "podcast@radcliffe-group.com" and may be answered by Ankur in the next episode.
