Dans cet épisode, nous plongeons au cœur de deux révolutions majeures qui bousculent le droit du travail et le quotidien des équipes RH : l'IA (et le Shadow IA) et la montée en puissance du travail indépendant.Alors que 53 % des salariés utilisent déjà l'IA au quotidien et que la France compte désormais 4 millions de travailleurs non salariés, de nouveaux risques juridiques apparaissent : des salariés armés de ChatGPT face aux équipes RH, des contentieux en hausse, et des risques financiers majeurs liés à la requalification de prestataires externes.Pour décrypter ces sujets brûlants et éviter les faux pas, nous recevons Simon Bosson, avocat au barreau de Paris et de New York.Au programme de cet échange :L'IA & le Shadow IA au travail : Salariés générant des mails de contestation de 3 pages en une minute, dégradation du dialogue social, chartes IA adossées au règlement intérieur et obligation de consulter le CSE.Prestataires & Freelances : Quels sont les vrais critères et pièges de la requalification en contrat de travail ? Pourquoi le portage salarial peut être une solution gagnant-gagnant pour sécuriser vos équipes ?La Prime de Partage de la Valeur (PPV) : Exonérations, opportunités pour les PME et pièges d'usage à éviter avant les évolutions réglementaires.Les entretiens professionnels : Analyse du nouveau rythme et pourquoi leur absence constitue un angle mort juridique dangereux en cas de licenciement.Tu as aimé cet épisode ?Fais-le savoir : like, partage, commente.

Couple, placement, épargne, revenus, on vous dit tout et quelles sont les règles !Gérer ses finances en solo est une chose, mais piloter un patrimoine à deux en est une autre.

Tout le monde reçoit un bulletin de salaire. Pourtant, peu de personnes connaissent réellement le métier de celles et ceux qui le produisent.Pour ouvrir cette cinquième saison de Ça vient des RH, Pierre et Julien reçoivent Laura COFFINET et Thomas de PRIESTERE, pour parler du métier de gestionnaire de paie, loin des clichés et de l'image de la personne qui se contenterait « d'appuyer sur un bouton ».Comment arrive-t-on dans la paie ? Existe-t-il un profil type pour réussir ? Comment vit-on avec un métier dans lequel 499 bulletins justes peuvent être éclipsés par une seule erreur ?Nos invités reviennent également sur la transformation du métier. Les logiciels ont-ils réellement simplifié la paie ou ont-ils surtout déplacé le travail vers davantage de contrôle, d'analyse et de conseil ? Quelle place l'intelligence artificielle peut-elle prendre ? Et si un outil devient capable de produire parfaitement un bulletin, où se situera demain la valeur du gestionnaire de paie ?Enfin, nous interrogeons la place de la paie dans l'entreprise. Car une paie fausse n'est pas nécessairement une erreur du service paie : l'origine peut se trouver dans une décision mal transmise, une information tardive, un processus défaillant ou un défaut de coordination entre les managers, les RH et les outils.Absences, primes, heures supplémentaires, arrêts, augmentations, départs… La paie voit passer une grande partie de la vie réelle de l'entreprise. Une connaissance précieuse, mais encore largement sous-exploitée.Un épisode consacré à un métier exigeant, en pleine transformation, dont l'expertise dépasse très largement la production des bulletins de salaire.Tu as aimé cet épisode ?Fais-le savoir : like, partage, commente.

This week on Thursday's Thoughts, Lucy and I are talking about optimisation, and whether our constant quest to look and feel better might actually be making us feel worse.We're bombarded on social media with advice on how to optimise almost every area of our health and wellbeing. Add in wearables and apps tracking everything from sleep and steps to heart rate and recovery, and it can feel like there's always something else we should be doing.But do we really need to optimise everything?We talk about why getting the basics right consistently – eating well, moving regularly, prioritising sleep and managing stress – is far more important than chasing the latest wellness trend or perfect score.We also explore the importance of tuning into how you actually feel. Data can be useful, but relying too heavily on numbers can mean we lose connection with our own bodies.We hope you find something useful in here.Love,Polly & Lucy xxDownload 15 Breaths to Calm Anxiety - a FREE 5 minute audio to calm you down in real time.Download The Breath Check-Up - your FREE guide to understanding how well you're breathing right now.Download my energising 5 Minute Morning Practice to get your day started in the best way possible.To find out more about my membership The Inner Space go to:  https://www.pollywarren.com/theinnerspaceEmail me at:  info@pollywarren.comhttps://www.pollywarren.com/https://www.instagram.com/pollywarrencoaching/

Paid media is changing quickly. With AI in paid media reshaping how campaigns are created, analysed, and optimised, advertisers have more opportunities than ever but also more questions around how to use these tools effectively.In this episode of the Affiliate Marketing Podcast, Lee-Ann Johnstone is joined by Andrei Blosh, Business Development Team Leader at PropellerAds, to discuss the evolving world of paid acquisition, AI-powered marketing, and what advertisers need to consider before investing their budgets.With 15 years of experience in the advertising space, PropellerAds works with performance marketers across multiple verticals, including iGaming, finance, mobile apps, utilities, and lead generation. Andrei shares his perspective on how advertisers can build an effective paid media strategy rather than treating campaigns as a simple “turn on and wait” process. The conversation explores how AI is helping advertisers analyse performance, optimise campaigns, and make faster decisions, while also discussing why human creativity and preparation remain essential. From spotting AI-generated creatives to understanding the importance of testing budgets, tracking, and localisation, Andrei shares practical advice for businesses looking to scale their acquisition strategies.AI in Paid Media: Key Talking PointsHow AI is changing paid media optimisation and campaign managementWhy AI-generated creatives still need human input and strategyThe importance of preparation before launching paid campaignsWhy paid media is not a quick-win channelHow advertisers should approach testing budgets and optimisationThe role of multi-format campaigns in acquisition strategiesWhy tier-three markets are becoming increasingly attractiveHow localisation impacts paid media performance across different regionsHow AI Is Changing Paid Media Strategy and OptimisationAI in paid media is becoming increasingly important, helping advertisers analyse data, identify patterns, and optimise campaigns faster.Andrei explains that AI has already changed how teams work by reducing the time needed for tasks that previously required hours of manual analysis. Advertisers can now use AI tools to understand what is working, what is not, and where campaigns should be adjusted.However, AI is not a replacement for marketing strategy.Andrei highlights that advertisers still need to understand their audience, prepare their landing pages, build effective creatives, define their user journey, and have the right tracking systems in place before investing in traffic.The biggest mistake businesses make is assuming AI can fix a weak foundation. Technology can support optimisation, but it cannot replace preparation.Why Paid Media Strategy Requires Testing, Patience, and PartnershipOne of the biggest misconceptions about paid media is expecting immediate returns.Andrei explains that advertisers often approach campaigns expecting to put in one dollar and immediately receive three dollars back. In reality, successful campaigns require testing, optimisation, and time to gather enough data.A strong paid media strategy involves testing different formats, analysing results, adjusting campaigns, and understanding what works for a specific audience.For advertisers, this means having realistic expectations and allocating enough budget to properly evaluate performance.Andrei also highlights that successful campaigns come from collaboration between advertisers and traffic partners. The best results happen when both sides work together towards a shared goal rather than treating traffic acquisition as a simple transaction.Paid Media Market Expansion: Why Localisation MattersAs competition increases in established markets, more advertisers are exploring opportunities in tier-three regions.Andrei explains that countries across Latin America, Africa, and Southeast Asia are becoming increasingly attractive because of growing digital adoption and expanding consumer markets.However, entering these markets requires a localised paid media strategy.Successful campaigns need to consider more than language. Advertisers must understand local preferences, payment methods, creative styles, device usage, and cultural differences.For example, Andrei highlights that payment methods such as Pix in Brazil and M-Pesa in Kenya can play an important role in adapting campaigns for local audiences.The opportunity is significant, but success depends on understanding the market rather than simply replicating campaigns from other regions.What You Will Learn About AI in Paid MediaHow AI is helping advertisers optimise campaigns fasterWhy AI-generated creatives can sometimes hurt performanceThe preparation checklist businesses need before buying trafficWhy paid media should be treated as a long-term strategyHow advertisers can test campaigns effectivelyWhy tier-three markets are attracting more attentionHow localisation impacts paid media successPodcast Timestamps: AI, Paid Media and Market Expansion 04:56 – How AI is helping advertisers analyse and optimise campaigns 06:35 – Why AI-generated creatives can be easy to spot 11:02 – Why AI does not replace marketing preparation 16:45 – Why paid media is about long-term partnerships, not quick results 19:05 – How paid traffic can influence brand visibility and SEO 25:10 – Understanding testing budgets and campaign optimisation 30:15 – Why tier-three markets are becoming growth opportunitiesListen to the Affiliate Marketing PodcastPaid media success is not just about buying traffic — it is about understanding your audience, testing strategically, and building campaigns that are designed to improve over time.In this episode, Andrei Blosh shares practical advice on how advertisers can approach AI, campaign optimisation, and market expansion with a smarter strategy.

Wellness and optimisation culture increasingly presents itself as "science-based". But citing studies, using technical language, or having scientific credentials does not guarantee that the underlying evidence is being represented accurately. In this episode, exercise science researcher Dr. Nick Tiller, discusses how science can be selectively packaged, overstated, and used to support commercially attractive health claims. It explores the difference between science communication and science commodification, why scientific scepticism is distinct from cynicism, how anecdotes and mechanistic explanations can mislead, and why a single peer-reviewed study should never be treated as definitive evidence. The conversation also looks further upstream at problems within science itself, including low statistical power, p-hacking, publication bias, questionable research practices, and academic incentives that may favour novelty and positive findings. These issues can then be amplified through media, social platforms, and the wellness industry until tentative findings become confident recommendations.

Battery storage went from an unproven bet to one of Europe's fastest-growing energy assets in a but the exceptional returns early investors saw have already faded as more batteries crowd the market. The real question today isn't whether a battery can make money, it's whether an optimiser can keep making money from it, market after market, year after year.In this conversation, Brecht Dierckx, Director of Physical Asset Trading & Optimisation at Centrica, joins Ed to unpack what actually separates a good battery optimiser from an average one, and why pricing, contracts and risk are becoming as important as trading itself.They cover:- Why the exceptional early returns 2017–2018 battery investors saw are gone for good, and what actually lets some optimisers keep repeating strong performance while others can't- How battery revenue has shifted over time — from grid-support services, to adjusting trades as markets move, to buying and selling across multiple markets at once — and why each edge shrinks as more batteries chase it- Why pricing a battery deal is nothing like pricing a financial instrument, and how modelling different future scenarios (rather than simple averages) reveals the real value of holding a diversified portfolio- What project developers are actually asking optimisers for now — performance guarantees, profit shares, protection from regulatory changes — and why some of those guarantees aren't realistically workable- Which European markets look most promising for battery growth next, and how emerging grid restrictions could shape how much value new assets are able to captureWant to know how flexible connection agreements or grid restrictions are changing your battery's revenue forecast?

This week I'm joined by Dr Jack Kreindler, physician, healthtech entrepreneur and founder of WellFounded Health and the Centre for Health and Human Performance, and someone who has spent 26 years asking one of the most important questions in medicine, what does it mean to not just fix disease, but to truly enhance human life?We explore longevity, prevention, performance and what the most advanced medicine in the world is learning about how to live well for longer.Dr Jack Kreindler qualified in medicine and physiology from University College London and spent a decade as an emergency physician before founding the Centre for Health and Human Performance in Harley Street in 2007. He is an honorary clinical research fellow at Imperial College London, founder and CEO of WellFounded Health and a leading voice on healthy longevity, human performance and the future of medicine. He has worked with elite athletes, extreme environment explorers and high performance executives across the world.What we explore together:Why medicine is shifting from fixing disease to enhancing physiology and what that means for youWhat burning the candle at three ends is actually doing to your brain and bodyWhy cadence is king and how everything in nature and biology moves in wavesWhat the most advanced health testing actually looks like and what it tells usThe truth about longevity supplements, peptides and biohacking and who they actually work forWhy your history is still the most powerful diagnostic tool ever inventedWhat it really means to enhance a human life rather than just extend itLove, Sarah Ann

Predictive analytics fails at exactly the moments that matter most, and this episode explains what to use instead.Every predictive model ever built is trained on historical data. It looks backwards to tell you what happens next. That works brilliantly right up until something happens that has never happened before, and then the model has nothing. Oliver walks through the last decade of black swan events that no algorithm saw coming, and the operators who felt them arriving anyway.This is not an argument against data. Oliver runs PinPoint Media, a performance marketing agency that lives in the data every day. It is an argument against the uncritical worshipping of it.He covers the three specific ways data misleads decision makers, the difference between optimisation decisions and direction decisions, and a five-step process for making the calls that models cannot make for you.The framework is simple. Data for optimisation. Intuition for direction. Feedback loops for everything.Key topics covered: Why predictive analysis fails at inflection points The three ways data actively misleads decision makers Survivorship bias and why your data only shows you the survivors The correlation and causation collapse that quietly wrecks strategy Recency bias amplification in volatile markets Why intuition is compressed data, not the absence of data How to tell an optimisation decision from a direction decision The five-step process for making direction decisions How to run a black swan stress test on your next forecast Building a decision journal to calibrate your own judgement Key takeaway: the businesses that win the next decade will not be the ones with the best models, they will be the ones with the best judgement.Sponsored by Incard.

Rather than telling you what to believe, she invites you to consider where this growing reliance on external technology may ultimately lead.Beginning with the online discussion surrounding Stephen Bartlett and his comments about being unable to perform optimally after drinking wine, Suzie examines the wider pressure to measure, monitor and optimise every aspect of human life. She introduces transhumanism and Rudolf Steiner's concept of the Ahrimanic force, exploring whether merging the human body with technology supports the evolution of the soul or pulls humanity further into materialism and disconnection from its spiritual nature.In this episode, you'll learnWhy optimisation culture has become such a prominent part of the wellness industryWhat transhumanism is and how it proposes enhancing the human body through technologyHow Rudolf Steiner described the Ahrimanic force within his anthroposophical teachingsThe difference between developing your internal technology and outsourcing awareness to external devicesFour questions to help you reflect on technology, embodiment and spiritual sovereigntyFollow Wisdom from the Akasha on Spotify and Apple Podcasts, or subscribe on YouTube, so you never miss an episode.

Your brain was never designed for the modern world - and understanding that could transform how you manage stress, prevent burnout, and protect your mental health. In this episode I'm joined by Jodie Wilson -a respected health journalist and bestselling author of ‘A Brain That Breathes: Essential habits for an overwhelming world'. Jodi reveals the science behind why modern life is leaving us exhausted (and the surprising solution). She also draws on the latest neuroscience, biology, and her own journey through burnout. You'll hear how our brains were never designed for today's endless stream of notifications, information, and constant productivity. Along with why rest isn't laziness, how small moments of downtime improve creativity and mental clarity, and why embracing "enoughness" may be one of the most important skills we can develop in today's overwhelming world. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why burnout has become an epidemic in modern life • How your brain processes stress, information overload, and decision fatigue • The surprising science behind "breathing space" and its impact on creativity • A simple walking trick that can rapidly improve mental clarity (try today) • How infinite scroll and digital overload are really affecting your brain • Is boredom important?

Welcome to the latest episode of LIFTS, your bite-sized dose of the latest industry fitness trends and stories. In this episode, hosts Matthew Januszek and Mohammed Iqbal explore one of the most provocative ideas in modern health and wellness: what if aging itself is a disease? Joined by Dr. Jonathann Kuo, founder of Extension Health, the conversation dives into the rapid rise of longevity medicine, peptides, and advanced performance therapies. As concierge health models, diagnostics, and biohacking treatments move into the mainstream, a new category is emerging at the intersection of healthcare, wellness, and performance. However, as interest grows, so too does the gap between consumer awareness, clinical expertise, and real-world application. The discussion explores how longevity medicine is being defined today, and how it differs from traditional healthcare, which has historically focused on treating disease rather than preventing it. Dr. Kuo shares his clinical perspective on using advanced diagnostics, peptide therapies, and regenerative interventions to optimise healthspan and address the underlying drivers of aging. Matthew and Mo challenge the growing influence of social media and biohacking culture, where consumer demand is accelerating faster than regulation and scientific validation. The conversation highlights the importance of clinical experience, medical oversight, and responsible implementation in a space that is evolving rapidly. As the episode develops, the panel reinforces a key message: while advanced therapies are gaining traction, the fundamentals of health, diet, sleep, and exercise remain the foundation of long-term outcomes, with newer interventions acting as an additional layer of optimisation. For operators, this episode provides valuable insight into both the opportunities and responsibilities associated with integrating longevity and wellness services into fitness environments. In this episode, we cover: • What longevity medicine is and why it's growing • The idea of aging as a disease and what it means in practice • The rise of peptides, biohacking, and advanced therapies • The difference between clinical care and influencer-led health advice • Why diagnostics and personalised data are essential • Risks around unregulated treatments and "DIY" biohacking • How AI is shaping the future of personalised healthcare Guest

Noticing a drop in organic traffic even though your rankings haven't changed? You're not alone. With Google AI overviews now triggering on 48% of all search queries, organic click-through rates are dropping by 61% when these overviews appear. To put it simply, users are getting their answers directly from AI, eliminating the need to click through to your website.   In this episode of Digital Marketing from the Coalface, Dave and Julie explore the 2026 remix of the classic debate: Is SEO dead? Together, they dive deep into the necessary pivot towards "search everywhere optimisation".   For tech and engineering brands, the goal is no longer just ranking on page one of Google; it is ensuring your brand and products are cited by AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity.   So, what are the new rules of content, and how to prevent AI from simply hoovering it up? Might the answer lie in injecting unique company insights, hyper-specific geographic data, and proprietary case studies that AI cannot replicate? Who knows!   What about the very real anti-AI content backlash? The discussion also focuses on how to leverage AI for rapid data analysis without producing unreadable, mass-produced content.   It's all very confusing, but that's no reason to let AI run wild with your website. You have to start positioning your engineering or tech firm to win in the era of AI search.

Aujourd'hui dans "Comment j'ai réussi ?", Mathis Hauville, co-fondateur de TaxCut, entreprise spécialisée dans le conseil et l'optimisation fiscale, partage son expérience et les innovations de son entreprise. Il explique le fonctionnement de TaxCut, qui s'appuie sur une intelligence artificielle pour optimiser la déclaration d'impôts des particuliers de manière quasi-automatique. Le processus se déroule en trois étapes : un questionnaire pour recueillir les informations sur les revenus et la situation du contribuable, le dépôt des documents nécessaires, puis la déclaration d'impôts réalisée par un expert fiscal dans un délai de 48 heures. L'objectif est de permettre une optimisation fiscale en identifiant toutes les charges et déductions possibles.Mathis Hauville souligne que le service peut être entièrement automatisé pour 99 euros, ou inclure un rendez-vous avec un conseiller fiscal pour 129 euros. Une troisième offre à 199 euros propose également un audit fiscal et patrimonial complet. Il insiste sur l'importance de ne pas attendre la dernière minute pour faire sa déclaration, afin d'éviter les embouteillages.L'invité aborde aussi la responsabilité de TaxCut en cas d'erreur ou de redressement fiscal. Il explique que l'entreprise prend en charge la responsabilité de la déclaration, à condition que le contribuable ait fourni des informations exactes. Cela apporte une tranquillité d'esprit aux clients, qui n'ont plus à s'inquiéter des éventuelles erreurs.Mathis Hauville partage également son point de vue sur les contrôles fiscaux menés par l'administration, notamment sur l'impôt sur la fortune immobilière. Il souligne que même pour des contribuables de la classe moyenne supérieure, il est rare que les déclarations passées ne comportent pas d'erreurs. Cela montre l'importance de faire appel à des experts pour optimiser sa situation fiscale. Hébergé par Audiomeans. Visitez audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

Data scientists use optimisation every day when training machine learning models, without even thinking about it. But there's another type of optimisation - that many data scientists are unaware of - that can be used to dramatically boost the business value of your ML outputs. This second layer transforms predictions into optimal decisions, and it's where the real impact often happens.In this episode, Dr. Tim Varelmann joins Dr. Genevieve Hayes to explain how combining machine learning with decision optimisation creates solutions that go far beyond prediction, helping stakeholders make better decisions in uncertain environments.You'll discover:How decision optimisation differs from ML parameter tuning [02:19]Why combining predictions with optimisation multiplies value [13:36]The mindset shift needed to think in optimisation terms [22:59]How to spot immediate optimisation opportunities in your work [23:42]Guest BioDr Tim Varelmann is the founder of Bluebird Optimization and holds a PhD in Mathematical Optimisation.

In today's episode, I'm joined by Meghan Swidler for a powerful conversation about why detoxification is the missing link in so many women's health and leadership journeys. We explore the truth about burnout culture, the obsession with optimisation, and why you cannot heal in the same environment that made you sick.Meghan breaks down the five detox pathways in the body and why cleansing must come before biohacking, supplements, or performance upgrades. We talk about the cost of living in your masculine for too long, how detox supports a return to feminine flow and self-trust, and why less truly is more as we move into 2026.This is not about restriction. It is about liberation. It is about clearing what no longer serves so your body, mind, and spirit can return to their natural intelligence and vitality.I trust you will get what you need from this episode, and make sure you come let me know how it resonated with you on instagram @the_human_design_coachBig love,MxxMeghan's Details:Free Detox QuizLinkTreeInstagramLinkedInSubstackWebsiteTwo Books on AmazonThe Cleanses30-Minute ConsultationIntroBodyGraph Chart SoftwareCreate your own Human Design chart tool with BodyGraphChart!

In this episode of The Digital Marketing Podcast, Daniel Rowles sits down with Kipp Bodnar, CMO of HubSpot, to discuss what may be the most disruptive year in marketing history. Kipp believes that 2026 could represent the biggest single wave of change our industry has ever seen. Weeks feel like months. Channels are fragmenting. Discovery is shifting. AI agents are entering workflows. And traditional attribution models are starting to break down. From Answer Engine Optimisation to AI agents, rising ad costs to workflow automation, this conversation explores how marketers can stay ahead when the pace of change is accelerating. In This Episode: Why 2026 may be the biggest year of change in marketing history Kipp explains why discovery, personalisation and team workflows are being reshaped simultaneously. Answer Engine Optimisation vs traditional SEO The shift from short keyword queries to ultra long-tail, conversational prompts of 40 to 60 words changes everything. Mentions vs citations in AI search Why brand visibility in ChatGPT, Gemini and Claude is more complex than link-based SEO ever was. The first mover advantage in AI discovery Early adopters can make exponential gains because competition is still low and optimisation is immature. Why AI agents are thriving in customer service but lagging in marketing Marketing problems are less formulaic and more complex, making agent adoption slower but highly promising. The practical AI workflow hack every marketer should try Record yourself completing a repetitive task, upload it to Google Gemini, and ask how to automate it. A simple but powerful shortcut to AI adoption Why attribution is becoming harder again The "golden age" of clean click-to-conversion tracking is fading as AI intermediates discovery. Rising ad costs and the need for new growth channels With paid media inflation increasing, marketers must adopt emerging channels such as AEO and AI-enabled creative optimisation. The importance of strategic conviction AEO cannot be treated as a side project. It must be embedded as a core capability. HubSpot's approach to AI and context Positioning HubSpot as the context layer for AI, enabling agents and assistants to work from real customer data. Key Takeaways: Discovery is changing faster than most organisations are adapting. Answer Engine Optimisation requires different content structures, including FAQs and machine-friendly formatting. Early adoption in AI search offers outsized returns. AI-assisted workflows are often more impactful than fully autonomous agents in marketing today. Marketing teams must bake experimentation and innovation into daily operations. The biggest risk is not AI itself, but failing to evolve working practices alongside it.

Outlouders, enjoy this free taste of Mia asking which generation of parents is top of the leaderboard on today's subscriber episode. Listen to the complete episode of The Generation Who Wins Parenting at 5pm today. Not a subscriber, you say? Do yourself a favour.What happens when Gen X realises she’s starting to look like her mum — and that her kids are now the age she was when she thought her parents were ancient? A very MMOL conversation, that’s what. In this subscriber-only episode, Mia Freedman, Holly Wainwright and Jessie Stephens unpack how parenting has shifted across generations — from Boomer hands-off freedom, to Gen X helicoptering, to Millennial optimisation, expertise and AI-assisted anxiety spirals. They talk latchkey childhoods, being raised by parents who were very much the main characters, and why modern parenting feels like a never-ending performance review. There’s guilt, control, tracking apps, bedtime boundaries, feminist car lectures, and the uncomfortable truth that our kids don’t magically become independent just because they turn 18. Outlouders, we want to hear from you: did you parent the way you were parented — or swing wildly in the opposite direction?

If you've been optimising for months but the day-to-day still feels heavy, this episode will help you spot when you need business redesign — not more effort. Anna unpacks optimisation vs redesign and shares how to step back and rethink the architecture of your business, with an invitation to her Solopreneur OS workshop on Tuesday 13 January 2026. Optimisation is useful — but only when the underlying business architecture still fits. Repeating the same problems (positioning, offers, capacity) is often a redesign signal, not a discipline problem. Redesign starts with deeper questions about identity, boundaries, capacity and the life you want now. You don't need to burn everything down — you need a thoughtful recalibration of the structure you're working within. Register for the Solopreneur OS workshop at intentionalexpert.com.

They discuss the difference between body awareness and body trust and how historical and cultural medical narratives shape the way women interpret symptoms.The conversation also challenges the idea that health must always be pursued at the level of optimisation, introducing the concept of being “healthy enough”—not as a lowering of standards, but as a way of letting health support life rather than dominate it.This episode will resonate with anyone who has felt exhausted by the constant focus on hormones, symptoms, and self-improvement, and is looking for a more grounded, humane way to think about women's health.Lara Briden is a naturopathic doctor and bestselling author of the books Period Repair Manual and Hormone Repair Manual — practical guides to treating period problems with nutrition, supplements, and bioidentical hormones. With a strong science background, Lara sits on several advisory boards and is the lead author of a 2020 paper published in a peer-reviewed medical journal. She has more than 20 years' experience in women's health and currently has consulting rooms in Christchurch, New Zealand, where she treats women with PCOS, PMS, endometriosis, perimenopause, and many other hormone- and period-related health problems.Reach Lara at www.larabriden.com, IG: https://www.instagram.com/larabriden/Lara's books  https://larabriden.com/lara-briden-books/Lara's previous appearance on Mikkipedia https://podcast.mikkiwilliden.com/33  and https://podcast.mikkiwilliden.com/248 and https://podcast.mikkiwilliden.com/264  Contact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwilliden

Search is changing fast. With AI overviews now appearing in the majority of Google results, the rules of visibility are being rewritten in real time. In this episode, Daniel Rowles explores what answer engine optimisation actually means in practice, and how marketers can adapt without chasing myths, hacks, or constantly shifting theories. Drawing on real testing from Target Internet over the past year, this episode cuts through the noise around GEO, AEO, and SEO to focus on what genuinely works. The result is a practical framework for improving visibility both in traditional organic search and within AI-powered results, particularly Google's AI overviews. If you are worried about falling click-through rates, changing user behaviour, or how large language models decide what to reference, this episode provides clear, grounded guidance. Rather than treating AI search as a black box to be cracked, Daniel reframes it as a probability system influenced by clarity, credibility, and consistency. The five techniques covered here are designed to future-proof your content strategy while still delivering value to real users today. In This Episode Why the industry cannot agree on GEO vs AEO, and why the distinction matters less than you think What current data tells us about AI overviews, click-through rates, and changing search behaviour How question-led content aligns with the way people now search using AI Why inverted pyramid writing is suddenly more important than ever How digital PR and brand mentions influence entity reputation in AI systems The growing role of advocacy, reviews, and online sentiment in visibility Why multimodal content is becoming a core ranking signal, not a nice-to-have How schema markup removes ambiguity for search engines and large language models Where to focus your effort while Google's AI results are still evolving rapidly Key Takeaways Answer engine optimisation overlaps heavily with traditional SEO, so doubling down on fundamentals is still smart Clear, direct answers to specific questions improve your chances of being referenced by AI Brand visibility is no longer just about links, but about being mentioned in the right contexts Positive sentiment and third-party validation increasingly influence AI recommendations Publishing content in multiple formats strengthens your overall search footprint Structured data helps machines understand your content, and humans engage with it more easily

When we think about brain health, most of us jump straight to memory, dementia, or even Alzheimer's. But what if the real starting point is our metabolism?In this episode, I'm joined by Dr Shahrukh Mallik, Consultant Neurologist, to explore how conditions like insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and chronic inflammation don't just affect the body, they directly impact the brain.We dive into: ⚡ Why people with type 2 diabetes have up to a 50% higher risk of developing Alzheimer's
