Podcasts about optimization

If we're doing everything to optimize and track our health, then why do so many of us feel so bad? Today I'm talking about why optimization culture is harming us, my personal experience with it, and most importantly, I'm sharing the single thing that we should be doing instead (which I have not heard be part of the discussion at all).

More than 60% of maternal deaths occur during the postpartum period, and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy are a major, preventable driver of that statistic. For too long, the transition from labor and delivery to home has been a vulnerable blind spot—leading to high rates of avoidablereadmissions. But the landscape has shifting. In this episode, we are diving deep into why OB providers must optimize blood pressure control before and after postpartum discharge. We'll be breaking down the landmark 2025 MOPP study, which shook up our traditional targets by examining tight versus standard blood pressure control, alongside the recently released May 2026 ACC Expert ConsensusDecision Pathway.What is the actual "goal BP" for a safe postpartum discharge? When should we initiate outpatient tight control, and how do we prevent these patients from bouncing back to the ED? Grab your coffee and pull up a chair.

In episode 80, JK describes starting a 30-day no-complaining challenge after noticing how easy it is to “cosign” others' complaints, and he's traveling to Omaha for a 14U baseball tournament and a College World Series game, while Kelly is traveling to Chicago, increasing running volume, lifting twice, and monitoring a heel issue that's improving. They then talk about “health maxing,” reacting to a resurfaced Diary of a CEO clip where Steven Bartlett said three glasses of wine led to worse sleep, eating, gym performance, and podcasting for days, debating wearables, optimization culture, and checking in with yourself before device metrics.00:00 Cold Open and Intro00:33 Today's Topics Preview01:26 Kelly's Chicago Update05:06 JK's No Complaining Challenge13:50 Omaha Travel Baseball Plans16:10 Courtesy Plates Gym Etiquette21:25 Health Maxing and Viral Clip25:03 Critiques of Optimization Culture28:34 Recovery Time Skepticism30:10 Bad Optimization Example34:13 Sobriety vs Fun Debate39:18 Wellness Surveillance Culture42:46 Wearables Help or Harm44:49 Metrics Anxiety in Training49:55 HRV and Zone Two Hype52:09 Actionable Takeaways55:30 Wrap Up and PlugFollow the podcast at ⁠⁠⁠@liftingrunninglivingpod⁠⁠⁠Email us at ⁠⁠⁠liftingrunninglivingpod@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠Follow JK at ⁠⁠@coachjkmcleod⁠⁠Follow Kelly at ⁠⁠⁠@runningklutz ⁠

Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming retail, but are retailers giving away too much decision-making power to algorithms? On this episode of The Voice of Retail, host Michael LeBlanc welcomes back retail strategist, educator, speaker and author Carl Boutet to the podcast to discuss his latest book, The Flip. Drawing on more than three decades of retail experience and his work advising organizations around the world, Carl offers a thought-provoking perspective on how AI is reshaping retail strategy, customer engagement and business leadership. The conversation begins with Carl's unique vantage point as a global retail observer. Fresh off another teaching engagement at the Asian Institute of Technology in Bangkok, Carl shares insights from Southeast Asia's rapidly evolving retail landscape. From super apps and mobile commerce to experiential shopping destinations and high-energy retail environments, he explains why emerging markets are often leapfrogging traditional retail models and creating new opportunities for customer engagement. Michael and Carl then explore one of the most important topics facing retailers today: the growing influence of artificial intelligence on decision-making. Carl argues that while AI can dramatically improve efficiency, it also poses the risk that businesses become increasingly dependent on algorithmic recommendations, potentially sacrificing the creativity, differentiation, and strategic judgment that make brands unique. At the center of the discussion is Carl's new framework outlined in The Flip. He introduces the four forces that he believes are fundamentally reshaping commerce: automation, optimization, contextualization and immersion. Together, these forces are changing how retailers attract customers, personalize experiences, manage operations and compete in increasingly digital environments. The discussion extends beyond technology into the future of retail itself. Carl shares observations from his travels across Asia, highlighting how retailers are creating energy-rich destinations that blend shopping, entertainment, food and community. These experiences offer important lessons for North American retailers seeking to remain relevant in a world where consumers increasingly have unlimited digital choices at their fingertips. Michael and Carl also examine the rise of AI-powered customer discovery, the future of search and marketing, the growing importance of trust, and why retailers must think carefully about where human value creation fits inside increasingly automated organizations. Carl explains why curiosity, organizational adaptability and a relentless focus on core business fundamentals remain essential leadership capabilities despite the rapid pace of technological change.

In this episode of the HVAC Know It All Podcast, host Gary McCreadie talks with Keith Gipson, Founder and CEO of Facil.AI, about how artificial intelligence is changing building automation and HVAC energy management. Keith explains how his AI platform continuously analyzes building data and makes adjustments to improve efficiency in central plants and rooftop unit portfolios. The conversation explores why some traditional energy-saving strategies may not deliver the expected results and how AI can uncover better operating conditions by making thousands of optimization decisions every day. Gary and Keith also discuss autonomous control, human oversight, implementation in existing buildings, and the role AI can play in helping facility owners reduce energy consumption while maintaining comfort and system performance. Gary and Keith discuss how AI is being used to improve HVAC and building performance through continuous optimization and automated decision-making. Keith explains how Facility AI connects to existing building automation systems, analyzes operating data, and makes adjustments every five minutes to reduce energy use. The conversation covers central plant optimization, rooftop unit performance, and why some common energy-saving strategies may actually increase costs. They also talk about autonomous AI control, human oversight, and how the technology can help facility owners save energy while improving system efficiency and comfort across large building portfolios. Expect to Learn: How AI can continuously optimize central plants and building systems to reduce energy consumption. Why some traditional HVAC energy-saving strategies may not deliver the expected results. How autonomous AI systems make operating decisions while still allowing human intervention when needed.

Are you living by your body's wisdom or by your data? In today's wellness culture, we're encouraged to track, measure, monitor, and optimize almost every aspect of our lives. Sleep scores, step counts, fasting windows, heart rate variability, recovery metrics, calorie burn, protein intake, the list seems endless. While technology can offer valuable insights, many people are finding themselves increasingly disconnected from the very thing that matters most, their relationship with their own body. In this episode, Colette explores the growing culture of self-optimization through the lens of Ayurveda and nervous system health. Drawing on her own experience as a former triathlete whose pursuit of performance ultimately led to burnout, she shares how Ayurveda helped her move from rigid self-monitoring to embodied self-awareness. This conversation is not about rejecting technology. It's about remembering that health is not a collection of numbers. Ayurveda teaches us that true wellbeing is dynamic, individual, seasonal, and deeply connected to our ability to listen to our body's changing needs. Colette explores how constant tracking can sometimes shift from awareness into hypervigilance, why optimization culture particularly impacts Vata and Pitta types, and how external metrics can unintentionally override intuition, self-trust, and nervous system regulation. In this episode, you'll learn: How optimization culture can disconnect us from our body's innate wisdom The difference between self-awareness and self-surveillance Why wearables and health metrics don't tell the full story How Vata and Pitta tendencies can become amplified through chronic self-monitoring Why Ayurveda views health as contextual, seasonal, and individualized The connection between nervous system safety and healing How to rebuild trust in your body's internal feedback systems Why balance is responsive rather than rigid The importance of pleasure, flexibility, and humanity in long-term wellbeing Gentle ways to reconnect with your intuition and embodied awareness This episode is an invitation to step away from the pressure to constantly improve yourself and instead cultivate a deeper relationship with your body. Because some of the most important aspects of health, joy, connection, peace, ease, and presence, can never be fully measured, but they can be deeply felt.   Elements of Ayurveda Podcast Community This new online community was created for those who wish to go deeper into Ayurveda, together.

Episode 353 hosts Dr John Delaney (Co-founder of Fresh Clinics) In this episode we explore the introduction of a new model of services for Australian aesthetic clinics called 'Fresh Health' - and its potential to reshape the landscape of aesthetics and primary care medicine.  Fresh Clinics already support injectors with technology to ensure compliance, training and higher standards. But Fresh Health is their next evolution that allows cosmetic clinics to offer additional medical services including for weight loss, menopause and hair loss consultations. This model is referred to as 'hybrid healthcare', blending in-person nurse-led consultations with telehealth specialists. We discuss why Fresh Health was launched and how it will help improve holistic patient care - whilst reinforcing the business success of existing clinics.  00:00 Welcome and Guest Intro 00:32 What Fresh Clinics Does 01:29 Disrupting the Industry 04:01 Aesthetics Market in 2026 06:43 Trends Tox Filler Biostims 08:39 Why Fresh Health Started 11:08 Business Support Beyond Clinical 13:19 Fresh Health Explained 14:17 Hybrid Care and Patient Trust 25:23 Medicine 3.0 Optimization 29:33 HRT History and Misconceptions 32:38 How Hybrid Care Works 33:29 Nurse Telehealth Workflow 35:25 Wellness Meets Aesthetics 36:39 Whole Body Consultation Shift 38:22 Hybrid Care vs Online Only 40:12 Criticism and Governance 43:01 Peptides and Black Market Risks 46:44 Pricing and Subscriptions 49:51 Clinic Economics and Retention 51:54 Access and Rural Impact 54:50 Future Services Roadmap 57:30 Joining Fresh Network 01:00:11 Fresh Summit Wrap Up Links: Fresh Clinics (Australia) Fresh Clinics (USA) DOWNLOAD OUR NEW APP IA COMMUNITY: DOWNLOAD FOR APPLE DEVICES DOWNLOAD FOR ANDROID DEVICES THEN GET A FREE 30 DAY SUBSCRIPTION (after you've downloaded the app and signed up for free): FOR HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS FOR BUSINESS OWNERS/NON-CLINICAL PROFESSIONALS

Your girl is in one of the most transformative seasons of her life - including my Saturn return gettin' started, a complete identity unraveling (back to 'factory settings' and who I really am), and (yay happy news!!)- getting engaged. And in the midst of it allll since last Fall, I realized something I never saw coming: I had become so good at optimizing my life/success that I accidentally optimized myself out of my true 100% genuine self expression & joy. In this deeply personal episode, I'm sharing the surprising subconscious patterns that shaped my ambition, how/why my body started speaking louder than my mind ever could, and the profound difference between your survival identity and your true essence. If you've ever felt like you're performing your life instead of fully living it, or existing too in your 'head' and the 'strategy' of it all instead of the authentic pleasure of this life experience for the sake of LIFE ITSELF, this conversation will help you come home to the version of you that is TRUEST.  PSSST - some serious breakthough questions at the end of this episode for ya, GRAB YOUR JOURNAL!!!!!   ⭐️  Join us in Dreamaway TO TAP ON THISSSS (see below) + for so many resources to help you get UNSTUCK including 40+ Dreamaway-exclusive tapping sessions (90 minutes of deep-dive subconscious rewiring/EFT tapping), visualizations, 40+ tapping "Money Dates" (abundance programming), daily tapping videos, weekly energy readings, astrological updates, and so much more! https://haleyhoffmansmith.com/dreamaway I ALWAYS KNEW: From Who You Had to Be, to Who You Always Were | Saturday, June 20th 1:00-2:30pm ET This session is about returning to YOU. Not the optimized version of you… not your 'survival identity' who learned to perform, succeed, people-please, shape-shift, or stay palatable. We're talkin' the REAL you. The one who has existed underneath all the conditioning the entire time and looks a lot like your preteen self, dreaming big for your beautiful life.   We're going deep on the subtle identities we unconsciously built in order to be loved, chosen, safe, impressive, productive, "good," or successful… and clearing the exhaustion of carrying versions of yourself that were never fully true. Because somewhere along the way, many of us learned to disconnect from our natural desires, our creativity, our softness, our weirdness, our joy, our bigness, our voice in order to 'win approval' or 'stay safe'. This session is the return…. And the reactivation of best case scenario future envisioning, on YOUR unique terms. No one else's. Time to step back onto your custom blueprint life timeline and experience more success and bliss than ever as a result.

You've had quite an unconventional path into retail media — you came in from the vendor side, not from ad tech or media agencies. Can you walk us through that journey and what ultimately led you to building Topsort? A lot of retailers are now a few years into their first retail media network and starting to ask hard questions about whether the technology they built on is actually going to take them where they need to go. What are you seeing out there, and what does it really cost a retailer to get that foundation wrong?One thing that stands out about Topsort is the emphasis on experimentation — real A/B testing — at the infrastructure level. Why does that matter so much, and when you add AI-driven optimization into the mix, what do you think a retail media network starts to look like that's genuinely different from what most people are running today?From the brand side, there's a lot of budget flowing into retail media right now but also a lot of frustration. What are CPG brands asking for that most networks still can't deliver — and how should brand leaders be thinking about holding their retail partners accountable in a way that's different from how they evaluated trade spend?With Amazon, Walmart, and Instacart continuing to mature as networks, there's a real question about whether mid-market and regional retailers can stay competitive for brand dollars. What's your honest view on where this market goes — and where do you think independent RMNs actually have a structural advantage?

On The Daily Mastermind, host George Wright III interviews Jonathan Otto, founder of Red Life, about aggressive health optimization, including Otto's controversial advocacy of urine drinking and his focus on red light therapy. Otto shares his background growing up in Australia, early philanthropic drive, and severe childhood and young-adult illnesses that led him to seek non-allopathic solutions. Through investigative journalism and producing The Truth About Cancer, he connected with doctors and began researching and supplying red light devices to clinics, citing long-standing medical interest in urine extracts and red light use. He explains that many chronic issues relate to mitochondrial dysfunction and that red and near-infrared light support cellular energy (ATP), circadian “switching,” and may improve eyesight when used in the morning. They discuss wavelength differences, flicker-rate concerns, practical usage, and accessing studies via AI tools. 00:00 Global Problem Solver00:42 Daily Mastermind Intro01:23 Urine Therapy Explained02:37 Cellular Root Causes04:28 Jonathan's Origin Story06:57 Childhood Illness Journey08:43 Truth About Cancer Path10:27 Red Light Basics11:32 Eyes Open and Timing14:28 Colors and Flicker Rate16:35 Morning Red Light Fix17:38 How Light Powers Cells19:14 Wavelengths and Device Quality20:58 Researching Studies Fast22:06 Stress Anxiety and Performance23:33 Stop Glorifying Burnout25:31 Why Red Light Is Core25:51 Grandma Recovery Story26:56 Where to Buy and Discounts29:35 Portable Options and PricingThanks for listening, and Please Share this Episode with someone.

If you've been doing the work on your OCD or anxiety and you're no longer in crisis — that's real progress. But if you still feel like you're just 'managing' or waiting for the next episode to hit, this video is for you. Most people with OCD and anxiety move between Stage 1 (Surviving) and Stage 2 (Stabilizing) their whole lives — never realizing that Stages 3 and 4 even exist.In this episode, Matt Codde, LCSW, breaks down the four real internal stages of recovery — not just symptom management, but the complete journey from surviving panic and fear loops all the way to a life of trust, expansion, and genuine freedom. He explains why settling at Stage 2 actually leads to relapse, and what the path from Stage 2 to Stage 4 looks like in practice.This isn't about toxic positivity or telling you recovery is easy. It's a clear, honest map of what real recovery looks like — and a challenge to stop settling for 'good enough' when you're capable of living free.

In this episode of the Programmatic Digest, Hélène Parker and Assetou Kone dive into the evolving role of AI in programmatic advertising and campaign optimization. The conversation explores how media buyers and traders can use tools like ChatGPT and Claude to streamline workflows, analyze campaign data more efficiently, and uncover deeper optimization insights. Hélène opens the session by reframing optimization as more than simple "bid up, bid down" tactics. Instead, she explains how successful optimization requires hypothesis testing, strategic thinking, and understanding how DSP algorithms redistribute spend based on performance signals. Using practical examples, she demonstrates how removing underperforming inventory can improve overall campaign efficiency by reallocating budget toward higher-performing placements. Assetou walks through the fundamentals traders need before introducing AI into their workflows, emphasizing the importance of understanding campaign objectives across awareness, consideration, conversion, and loyalty stages. She explains how campaign goals directly influence which metrics traders should prioritize and optimize toward. The heart of the workshop focuses on prompt engineering and practical AI usage. Assetou demonstrates how traders can use AI to analyze site lists, identify inefficient domains, generate allow/block lists, surface top-performing inventory, and extract geo-level insights tied to real-world audience behavior. She also highlights how combining AI-generated insights with industry knowledge creates stronger strategic recommendations for clients. Throughout the discussion, Hélène and Assetou address common fears around AI and job security, explaining why traders who learn how to leverage AI tools will become more valuable — not less. They close by discussing the future of agentic AI within DSPs and how automation can help traders spend less time buried in spreadsheets and more time focusing on strategy and insight generation.

Directing your breath to your brow today is a reminder that you already contain all the wisdom, vision, and clarity you need to handle what's next. Trust your focus. You are doing an extraordinary job. This is day 5 of a 7-day meditation series, "Stop Procrastinating: Meditations for Overwhelm and Focus" episodes 2720-2726. THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY Welcome to Stop Procrastinating: Meditations for Overwhelm & Focus. If you are arriving here today feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or frustrated by a task you've been avoiding, take a deep breath and let the pressure go. There is no shame here. True mindfulness teaches us that procrastination isn't a lack of discipline; it's how our nervous system freezes when a task feels too heavy or the anxiety of perfectionism takes over. In this series, we aren't here to force or push our way into productivity. Instead, we are creating a quiet space to soften the stress, calm the inner critic, and gently untangle the mental blocks keeping you stuck. You don't need to feel perfectly ready to begin—you just need to find the stillness to take one single, intentional step. Right now, the pressure is entirely off. For the next few minutes, give yourself permission to just be here, exactly as you are. Take a deep, clearing breath in… and let it settle. Now is your time.

In this episode of the Health Optimization Medicine Podcast, Dr. Scott Sherr, Dr. Allen Bookatz, and Dr. Jup Kuipers come together live in studio in Washington, D.C. to discuss the dangers of over-optimization and the "more is better" mentality. They explore real clinical case studies of patients who inadvertently damaged their health by blindly following supplement trends. Join us as we delve into: The dangers of over-supplementing with high-dose Fish Oil and Vitamin B6. How shifting to an "Omega-3 dominant" ratio can actually hinder your immune system's ability to heal injuries. Why you should treat metabolomic testing like the dashboard of a car to prevent the "check engine light" of chronic disease. How clinical metabolomics allows you to stop guessing and start subtracting unnecessary pills from your daily routine. This episode is for you if: You are experiencing wellness burnout and taking a massive handful of supplements every day without knowing if they are working. You want to understand the difference between being "fit" (e.g., running a marathon) and being truly cellularly "healthy." You are curious about functional testing and how it differs from the standard disease-focused bloodwork at a primary care clinic. You want a clear strategy to cut through social media influencer noise and build a foundational, personalized health protocol.

If you're over 50 and still doing cardio to stay healthy, you're wasting your time and may actually be making things worse. This episode breaks down the exact movements, supplements, and anti-aging strategies that build real strength, protect your bones, and extend your longevity without spending hours in the gym. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Will Harlow, a master's-level physiotherapist and founder of HT Physio, whose YouTube channel has amassed over 1.5 million subscribers by teaching people over 50 how to stay mobile, active, and independent without painkillers or surgery. Will graduated with a first-class degree from Brunel University, trained in both the NHS and professional sport, and has spent his career proving that what most doctors call "just aging" is actually optional. Together, Dave and Will dismantle the myths keeping older adults weak, injured, and overtrained. They get into why resistance training beats cardio for human performance and metabolism at every age, how anabolic resistance changes your protein needs after 50, which three compound movements deliver the biggest functional gains, and why your grip strength may be the most underrated biomarker you're ignoring. Dave also shares how he used biohacking, targeted supplements, and functional medicine principles to grow bones so dense his surgeon couldn't cut through them. They also dig into vestibular training, hydration, magnesium, Vitamin DAKE, and how tools like AI are now helping people identify movement problems before they become joint replacements. This is essential listening for anyone serious about longevity, anti-aging, biohacking, sleep optimization, supplements, smarter not harder training, human performance, and building a body that performs decades past its expiration date. You'll Learn: Why chronic cardio decreases bone density and muscle mass in people over 50 The 3-2-1 resistance training method that delivers 80% of results in 40 minutes a week How anabolic resistance changes protein requirements as you age and what to do about it The three compound movements every person over 50 should master first Why grip strength predicts overall health and how to train it How vestibular disorders silently destroy balance and confidence, and how to reverse them The supplement stack (Vitamin DAKE, magnesium glycinate, digestive enzymes) that supports bone, muscle, and metabolism Why 7,000 steps beats 10,000, and where that number actually came from How Dave used biohacking and functional medicine to grow bones that broke a surgeon's saw Why AI tools can now spot gait problems that lead to hip replacements years later Thank you to our sponsors! - Active Skin Repair | Get 25% off your order until May 21, after that, it drops back to 20%, visit ActiveSkinRepair.com and use code DAVE.
