In this Shop Talk, we reflect on a simple question that can haunt all of this: What do we need to quit so our best work can truly live? Featuring Erik Løkkesmoe's powerful essay "I Quit," Coach Bill explores the things that quietly pull us away from meaningful work—chasing applause, feeding the algorithm, climbing ladders, waiting for permission, and letting urgency replace purpose. Sometimes the most important step forward isn't doing more—it's having the courage to let something die.

CHROs have more responsibility than ever but less structural power than the role requires. In Part 2 of The CHRO Paradox series, Stacie explores the "C-suite gap"—the disconnect between where the CHRO sits and where real decisions are made. Drawing on data from The Conference Board, the Harvard Law School Forum on Corporate Governance, Protiviti, and the Josh Bersin Company, this episode maps the four derailers keeping the authority gap open, illustrates what success looks like when organizations close it, and provides five concrete moves for HR leaders operating inside the gap right now.

The AI trade has dramatically outpaced the hyperscalers who are supposedly its biggest beneficiaries, even as Big Tech's stock buybacks disappear under the weight of massive AI capital expenditures. Investors are now asking whether the AI infrastructure buildout will ever translate into the returns that justify these sky-high valuations.Today's Stocks & Topics: iShares Global Utilities ETF (JXI), Market Wrap, Lockheed Martin Corporation (LMT), Low Cost Loans, Bitcoin, AI's Spending Paradox: Hyperscalers Left Behind as the Trade Evolves, Apple Hospitality REIT, Inc.

Self-awareness is supposed to make love easier — so why doesn't it? In this episode of I Think I Like You, Clara explores the paradox so many high-achieving, independent women face: years of personal growth and self-work, but relationships still feel just out of reach. She breaks down why "cocooning" and rest matter before re-entering the dating pool, how avoidance around health, mortality, and intimacy quietly shapes our relationship patterns, and what it really means to move from doing to being in the pursuit of love. If you've ever felt behind in dating despite having your life together everywhere else, this episode offers a different way to think about timing, readiness, and the inner work that actually moves the needle.Key Topics:The paradox of self-awareness and relationship challenges among independent womenThe importance of "cocooning" and self-care before pursuing love activelyMoving from doing to being in the pursuit of loveThe influence of societal and internal pressures to "catch up" by a certain ageStrategies to understand genuine desires versus fears-driven actionsTimestamps: 00:00 - Introduction: The high-achiever's paradox in love00:28 - Self-awareness vs. relationship struggles01:22 - Embracing summer and prioritizing outside activity01:48 - The benefits of weightlifting and community classes for mental clarity02:17 - Juggling parenting, deadlines, and personal growth02:47 - Inspiration behind the episode: conversations with women in early 30s03:13 - The desire for independence versus societal pressure to date03:43 - The importance of knowing yourself in your 30s and beyond04:12 - Navigating chaotic early 30s and establishing identity outside work04:41 - The internal conflict: living fully now vs. fear of missing out05:10 - The challenge of dating apps and perceived "behindness"05:42 - Balancing enjoying the present with societal expectations06:09 - The reality of the dating process and emotional avoidance06:39 - Success story: meeting a partner after healing and reflection07:35 - The importance of cocooning and self-care before entering the dating scene08:04 - The power of internal clarity and self-understanding08:33 - Overcoming the wiring to plan and strategize in emotional intimacy09:20 - Recognizing avoidance behaviors in dating efforts09:50 - The different forms of action: doing vs. being10:17 - Facing fears and disillusionment in dating10:44 - Common experiences: flaky dates, lingerers, and ghosting11:27 - Gaining insight through clarity and inner work11:56 - Personal reflections: health screenings and fears of mortality12:23 - Confronting avoidance of self-care and life planning13:15 - Naming fears around mortality and intimacy14:12 - Moving forward through clarity and action14:42 - Connecting fears to relationship patterns and living authentically15:11 - Reflection questions for inner work on relationship fears16:14 - The timeline of meeting a partner and life stages16:41 - The benefits of patience and self-knowledge in love17:29 - The societal pressures of youth and relationship timelines18:04 - Authentic reasons to pursue love and relationship readiness18:59 - The significance of inner work over external actionConnect with Clara:InstagramWebsite

Litují brexitu, volí Farage. Deset let po referendu o brexitu považuje 57 procent Britů odchod z Evropské unie za chybu a zhruba stejný počet by hlasoval pro návrat. Přesto strana lídra brexitářů Nigela Farage vede ve volebních průzkumech. Jak tento paradox chápat? Které ze slibů tehdejší kampaně Vote Leave se naplnily a které ukázaly jako mýtus? A je reálný návrat Británie do EU, když ani možný příští premiér Andy Burnham nechce toto téma zvedat? Zeptáme se ředitele Institutu liberálních studií Martina Pánka, který byl poradcem britské europoslankyně z Brexit Party, a v Británii žijícího novináře Ivana Kytky. Moderuje Lukáš Matoška.

June 23, 2026: Companies are drowning in AI pilots, prototypes, and scattered use cases that make teams busier without necessarily making the business better. I talk about why the real advantage may come from finishing the few AI initiatives that matter instead of starting 300 that don't. Then I get into Adam Grant's new research linking return-to-office mandates with CEO narcissism, what the study actually found, where the methodology gets complicated, and why the better question for leaders is not "office or remote," but what arrangement produces the best outcomes for the team, the business, and the work being done

Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness (1899) is both a scathing critique of European imperialism and a reminder that all humans have the capacity to succumb to the heart of darkness. It also is not without controversy, as people have been debating it's meaning and essence for over a century now. What exactly is the heart of darkness? Was the Belgian Congo a unique circumstance of imperialism or just another example of human nature at work? Is the text of Heart of Darkness a legitimate critique of the imperial mindset, or is it actually just upholding the very norms and imperialistic conventions it is ostensibly dismantling? This is the first episode in a series covering the book. It provides an overview of the historical context of European imperialism in Africa, including the ivory and rubber boom in the Congo. We also set the ideological stage for the narrative of the book. The civilizing mission is discussed and we wonder if we are all just prisoners of our own historical moment? Was european imperialism just another cycle of histories that have already happened long ago? We also dive into Marlow's origins, back story, and recruitment with "The Company." -Consider Supporting the Podcast!- Leave a rating or review on apple podcasts or spotify!

What separates people who achieve remarkable results with AI from those who struggle to get reliable, accurate, or useful outcomes from the exact same tools?In this episode of Product Rising, host Shannon Peavey sits down with Stanford researcher and BigSpin AI founder Moritz Sudhof to explore one of the most overlooked challenges in AI adoption: the human factor.Drawing on research conducted with Stanford professor and Bigspin co-founder Chris Potts, Moritz shares surprising findings from the analysis of tens of thousands of real-world AI conversations. Their work reveals that the difference between successful and unsuccessful AI use often has less to do with the model itself and more to do with how people interact with it.Why do expert users encounter more AI failures than novices, yet achieve dramatically better outcomes? Why do so many users unknowingly accept flawed outputs? And what skills, behaviors, and product design choices can help close the growing divide between AI power users and everyone else?This conversation explores the emerging field of AI fluency, the risks of treating AI like an oracle or a vending machine, and why the future of successful AI products depends on designing not just the model, but the interaction between humans and machines.Moritz is part of our exclusive Product Rising series on AI Ethics, Safety & Responsibility, where host Shannon Peavey speaks with researchers, builders, policymakers, and practitioners working to shape a future where AI delivers meaningful value while preserving human judgment, agency, and trust.Whether you're a product leader, founder, builder, manager, or everyday AI user, this episode offers practical insights into how to get better outcomes from AI and why your own behavior may be one of the most important variables in the equation.CHAPTERS00:00 Why Some People Get Better Results from AI01:22 Moritz's Journey: From Language Research to AI Products03:42 AI Is Not a Human Replacement06:49 The Coaching Experiment That Changed Everything09:14 Same AI, Different Outcomes10:43 Designing User Behavior, Not Just AI Behavior12:13 The Research Behind AI Fluency15:14 The User Fluency Paradox17:01 Why Expert Users See More Failures19:18 Invisible Failures and Silent Mistakes21:12 The Skills Every AI User Needs21:55 Embrace the Skeptic Mindset23:22 The Biggest Misconceptions About AI25:42 The Vending Machine Problem26:16 The Growing Divide Between AI Users28:08 Introducing Bigspin30:47 Bringing Product Builders Back Into the Room32:33 Why AI Adoption Isn't a Tool Rollout34:45 Passengers vs. Pilots36:24 Improving Your AI Outcomes Today37:49 What Product Builders Should Demand40:16 Advice for Product Leaders Building AI Products42:00 We're Designing Interactions Now43:15 Final Thoughts and Where to Learn More

Join Dima Romashin, CEO and Co-Founder of Efferon, for an unvarnished examination of the execution bottleneck threatening modern life sciences. While the biotech sector is experiencing an unprecedented boom in discovery, an industry-wide crisis looms at the industrialization layer: brilliant therapeutics and medical devices frequently fail not because the science is flawed, but because it cannot be reliably replicated at scale. Bringing a background as a manufacturing executive at a $100M+ enterprise to the deep-tech ecosystem, Dima argues that true clinical impact only occurs when a breakthrough can be successfully manufactured by the millions. In this episode, we explore how Efferon is scaling its revolutionary blood purification platform and redefining the rules of biotech capital formation.

What happens when expertise is no longer scarce?In this episode of The Executive Brief, Kelli Jackson explores the “Advisor's Paradox” through the lens of Accenture and the broader consulting industry. As AI makes information more accessible than ever, the real question isn't whether consultants or leaders will be replaced, but how value is evolving.This episode breaks down why execution, judgment, and the ability to drive outcomes are becoming the true differentiators and what that means for senior leaders navigating the future of work.If you're finding value in these conversations, make sure to subscribe to the newsletter and join a growing community of over 15,000 senior leaders receiving weekly career intelligence, market insights, and strategic perspectives designed to help you stay ahead.

In today's episode of Psych Talk I speak with Dr. Diana Sorrentino, PhD, a gender diversity and transgender subject matter expert, author, and host of the Paradoxes of Gender Podcast. Dr. D has spent over 40 years of research studying gender diversity and gender neurobiology and 36 years experience working with over 1000 gender diverse, gender variant, and transgender individuals. She starts the episode talking about how she started in the field and how her work has evolved over the past four decades. Dr. D describes for listeners what gender diversity is and some common misconceptions about gender diverse individuals. We discuss steps individuals can take to better understand gender diversity, especially family members of a loved one who is gender diverse. We discuss gender affirming care, what it entails, and what clinicians often miss when it comes to gender affirming care. Dr. D shares some steps we can take to better approach conversations about gender diversity with clarity, rather than being driven by fear. We end the episode by Dr. D providing words of advice and encouragement for any gender diverse individual who may be currently struggling.Information shared by guests on Psych Talk are reflective of their own values, perspectives, and life experiences. Psych Talk values platforming various perspectives and experiences even if those views are not necessarily reflective of Psych Talk's values and perspectives.

Alright, welcome back to Žižek & So On. This week continues our NEW SERIES on the systematic aspects of Žižek's thought & we're taking a look at the work of philosopher Berta M. Pérez focusing on her essay “The Courage to Hold onto a Paradox” and her book The Dialectical Gaze: Hegel with Žižek. Why does every apparently coherent order depend on an excluded element?  WTF is the transcendental turn? Along the way we return to some of Žižek's key examples: Lévi-Strauss's divided village, Hegel's monarch as the empty point of decision, & the strange loop of subject and substance.The European Graduate School are running a Leading Thinkers Course on Slavoj Žižek and I know a lot of our listeners are attending the course which is exciting and a big thanks to all of you who have been reaching out to us over the course of the series so far! The course runs for ten weeks or so with Frank Ruda, Mladen Dolar, Adrian Johnston, Robert Pfaller, Zahi Zalloua, Dany Nobus, Alenka Zupančič, Berta Perez, and at the end Žižek…on…himself….so we're going to be doing these episodes alongside the course.Up next we stay with Žižek's Hegel, but move from Pérez's account of the Dialectical Gaze to the early Žižek of The Most Sublime Hysteric with Frank Ruda.See you in Paris,Ž&…

In 2022, Freedom House released a report titled “Beijing's Global Media Influence 2022”, highlighting the numerous ways in which the Chinese government seeks to influence media across the world. They stated that China's main tactics were the mass distribution of content, harassment and intimidation of outlets that publish negative news, disinformation campaigns, and training for media workers and officials in different locales.The provision of free or subsidised training for local journalists in the Global south is a foundational aspect of China's efforts to ‘tell China's story well' through legitimate means. By co-opting local voices, China is able to disseminate its own message through local partners in an organic way and free of charge.But what does this training look like? Who is participating and what are they learning? And how does China ensure that after journalists return home, they continue to talk about China in the right way? Today's guest is here to discuss this and more.Dr Emeka Umejei is currently Senior Research Associate at the University of Johannesburg. He has a PhD in Journalism and Media Studies and has taught in institutions across Africa including the University of the Witwatersrand in South Africa, the American University of Nigeria, and the University of Ghana. Prior to this he worked as a journalist in Nigeria for leading national newspapers and served as an African correspondent for U.S.-based media outfit LNG Publications.He has written two books on Chinese influence on African journalism: Chinese Media in Africa: Perception, Performance, and Paradox (2020) and China in African Media: Between Influence Operations and Decolonization which came out this year.Buy bookclub books here            Buy me a coffeeLatest Substack postLinks to everythingSupport the showSign up for Buzzsprout to launch your podcasting journey: https://www.buzzsprout.com/?referrer_id=162442Subscribe to the Sinobabble Newsletter: https://sinobabble.substack.com/Support Sinobabble on Buy me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Sinobabblepod 

As AI vendors hype “recursive self-improvement” and other scary features, we see more and more “mainstreaming” of AI technology in business. In other words, the AI does not solve problems by itself: we as HR and IT leaders need to clearly define our needs and then buy, build, and tune the technologies we buy. Some AI vendors (ie. Paradox, Radancy, Sana, Maki, others) are laser focused on very specific use-cases, and they are delivering solution-first offerings that really add value. The frontier vendors, however, are struggling to do this and much of their revenue still comes from “enabling others” to create solutions. And the new usage-based pricing is forcing this kind of pragmatic thinking. In this podcast I highlight this “commoditization” of core AI features and explain why your “problem identification” work is perhaps the biggest effort in the HR 2030 Agentic HR strategy.

Send us Fan Mail"Juneteenth always carries weight, but it also raises a question we don't ask often enough: are we actually free? We sit with James Baldwin's reminder that nothing changes until it's faced, then we look straight at the modern paradox of liberty in a time of surveillance, government overreach, and systems that seem designed to keep people compliant, exhausted, and divided. We talk about why  *"Black history is American history, and why real patriotism isn't blind loyalty. For us, patriotism means the courage to hold a nation accountable to its ideals, to examine uncomfortable truths, and to build something better from the wreckage." That same standard applies to our personal lives too, because transformation doesn't happen through slogans. It happens through responsibility, honesty, and a willingness to step off the “Matrix merry-go-round” of inherited beliefs and automatic habits. If this resonates, subscribe, share the show, and leave a review so more people can find it.

In this episode, we are joined by Professor John Price (University of Victoria), who leads the Canada–China Focus project. We discuss how Canada–China relations are debated in ways that can intensify anti-Asian racism and Sinophobia, and how Canada–China Focus works to reframe public conversation. We use Price's submission to the Public Inquiry into Foreign Interference as a stand-alone case to think through how “security” discourse can produce racialized harm, and we close by reflecting on what Prime Minister Mark Carney's January 2026 visit to Beijing signals for the next phase of Canada–China relations—and what short- and long-term work is needed to sustain anti-racist public awareness alongside serious foreign-policy debate.

"Demand planning is the thing which everybody seems to focus on, because it's kind of theoretical. You come up with a forecast and it doesn't really influence anything. It's when you look at the supply side, that's when it becomes real." Most supply chains are supported by investments in demand planning tools, sales and operations planning systems, and MRPs… so why is the supply plan being 'fixed' by a person with a spreadsheet and a hunch? Mark Robinson is the CEO of Orchestr8, an enterprise supply chain planning platform. He has spent more than two decades helping global organizations including Shell, BT, 3M, and Boots improve their supply chain planning performance.  He has always maintained a particular interest in the gap between supply planning theory and the realities of execution - one that AI may just be ready to help bridge. In this episode of the Art of Supply podcast, Kelly Barner and Mark discuss why: -Bigger budgets don't buy better outcomes -Supply planning can't be waved away as a background task -A love of 'firefighting' may be half the problem with supply planning   Links: Mark Robinson on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-robinson-3a470211/  Kelly Barner on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kelly-barner-6884443/  Art of Supply LinkedIn newsletter: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/art-of-supply-6895142546301960193  Art of Supply on AOP: http://www.artofsupply.com  Subscribe to the Art of Procurement Newsletter: https://resources.artofprocurement.com/art-of-procurement-podcast-subscribe   

Send us Fan MailLife often presents us with tensions that cannot be neatly resolved. We experience joy and grief, certainty and mystery, hope and disappointment—all at the same time. In this episode of Summer Series 2026, Tim Stewart welcomes artist, author, and storyteller Scott Erickson for a rich conversation about learning to find beauty within those tensions.Together, they explore how prayer, creativity, grief, and wonder shape our spiritual lives. Scott reflects on the role of paradox in faith, why art can help us process experiences that words alone cannot capture, and how healing often begins when we stop trying to force simple answers.The conversation also examines the idea of the "wounded healer," the importance of honest prayer, and how beauty can open us to deeper encounters with God in the midst of life's complexities.In this episode:• Why paradox is central to the spiritual journey• Learning to find beauty in tension and uncertainty• Prayer as an ongoing conversation with God• The relationship between creativity and spiritual formation• Grief, healing, and transformation• Becoming a wounded healer for others• Discovering meaning in life's unresolved spaces

Within traditional educational and parenting paradigms, behaviorist strategies such as token economies, behavior color charts, and positive reinforcement models are frequently treated as standard mechanisms for human development. However, these compliance-driven metrics often collapse under long-term evaluation, obscuring the critical psychological friction they introduce. Alfie Kohn, a prominent educational theorist and author of Punished by Rewards, joins the program to systematically critique the reliance on traditional behavioral modification systems, including school-wide positive behavioral interventions and supports (PBIS). Emily and Alfie break down the critical neurodivergent intersections of these models, explore the hidden psychological cost of praise, and discuss ways of shifting focus away from surface-level behavior modification and toward the collaborative cultivation of student-led problem-solving. TAKEAWAYS Behaviorist interventions like rewards and punishments function as temporary methods of external control rather than sustainable catalysts for authentic development. Extrinsic rewards actively diminish intrinsic motivation by shifting focus away from the task itself and toward the acquisition of the reward. Conditional rewards and continuous verbal praise implicitly communicates that fundamental human worth is tethered to performance and utility. Applied behavioral modification techniques often target observable surface actions while systematically ignoring the underlying physical, emotional, and sensory needs driving those behaviors. Cultivating a child's authentic self-regulation requires shifting from unilateral adult control to active, collaborative decision-making processes. Check out our continuing education courses for educators through our online platform, the Neurodiversity University! Find them here and here. Alfie Kohn is a prominent author, lecturer, and progressive education advocate whose work challenges traditional frameworks in schooling, parenting, and human behavior. He holds a bachelor's degree from Brown University and a master's degree from the University of Chicago. He has authored 14 books, including seminal titles such as Punished by Rewards, The Schools Our Children Deserve, Unconditional Parenting, and The Myth of the Spoiled Child. Described by Time magazine as perhaps the country's most outspoken critic of education's fixation on grades and test scores, Kohn's insights have significantly shaped the practices of educators, parents, and managers worldwide. His work has been profiled in major publications like the Washington Post and the Los Angeles Times, and he has been featured on hundreds of TV and radio programs, including The Today Show and two appearances on Oprah. Based in the Boston area, Kohn lectures extensively at universities, national education conferences, and parent organizations while maintaining his comprehensive digital archive at alfiekohn.org.

A poet who has lived two decades with incurable cancer on what faith sounds like when God feels more absent than present. Christian Wiman joins Mark Labberton to talk poetry, suffering, and friendship. "The presence of God, less so. I experience the absence more than the presence." In this episode with Mark Labberton, Wiman reflects on writing "Every Riven Thing" after a single church service, surviving a last-resort clinical trial, and the friendship behind his new book with Miroslav Volf. Together they discuss the paradox at the heart of poetry, grief that explodes into joy, and why joy asks something of us. They also weigh Heschel and Lewis's clarity, the friendless American male, and chance turned into destiny by constant choice. Episode Highlights "The presence of God, less so. I experience the absence more than the presence." "I would not let go of my despair, even though the poems were showing me something else." "Joy asks something of us on the other side." "The relief came from the communion between people." "I think that that was quite a shock to me to realize that we were each envying what the other had." About Christian Wiman Christian Wiman is a poet, essayist, editor, and translator, and the Clement-Muehl Professor of Communication Arts at Yale Divinity School, where he teaches religion and literature with the Yale Institute of Sacred Music. From 2003 to 2013 he edited Poetry, the oldest magazine of verse in the English-speaking world, tripling its circulation and earning two National Magazine Awards. He is the author, editor, or translator of more than a dozen books, including Every Riven Thing, the memoirs My Bright Abyss and He Held Radical Light, and the genre-blending Zero at the Bone. A former Guggenheim Fellow with two honorary doctorates, he has written candidly about faith and a long struggle with incurable cancer.

Have you ever held a pet up to a mirror and wondered why they don't seem to recognize themselves? Humans usually figure it out very young, but most animals never do. Yet a surprising handful of species appear capable of recognizing their own reflection—a clue that scientists use to explore one of the most fascinating questions in biology: self-awareness. https://www.livescience.com/4272-elephant-awareness-mirrors-humans.html Smartphones have become the villains of modern life. We blame them for distraction, anxiety, shortened attention spans, poor sleep, and endless scrolling. But is the phone itself really the problem? Or are some activities on our phones far more harmful than others? Dr. Faye Begeti, a neurologist, neuroscientist, and researcher at Oxford University Hospitals, says we've been focusing on the wrong question. In our conversation, she explains what the latest research reveals about how smartphones affect the brain, why some forms of phone use can actually be beneficial, and how to build healthier digital habits without throwing your device into a lake. She is author of The Phone Fix: The Brain-Focused Guide to Building Healthy Digital Habits and Breaking Bad Ones (https://amzn.to/3yJUhIM). Paradoxes have a way of making your brain stop and say, "Wait a minute..." If someone says, "I always lie," are they telling the truth? If not, then maybe they are. These strange logical puzzles have fascinated philosophers, mathematicians, and scientists for centuries because they expose flaws in how we think and force us to see the world from a different perspective. George Szpiro, journalist, mathematician, and author of Perplexing Paradoxes: Unraveling Enigmas in the World Around Us (https://amzn.to/4aEASGo), joins me to explore some of the most fascinating paradoxes ever conceived and explain why wrestling with impossible questions can actually make you a better thinker. Learning to juggle might seem like little more than a party trick. But researchers have discovered that mastering this surprisingly challenging skill can create measurable changes in the brain. In fact, a few days of practice may do more for your mind than you would ever expect. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2009/10/091016114055.htm PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS POCKET HOSE: For a limited time, when you purchase a new Pocket Hose Ballistic, you'll get a FREE 360 degree rotating pocket pivot and a FREE thumb drive nozzle!

Donald Trump has already destroyed much of the global economy, but the worst has yet to hit the United States. This “resilience paradox” is the result of early stage demand destruction, something economists fear and policy makers have no defense against. There are multiple factors holding the U.S. economy together in a way that other countries cannot manage. And most of the damage is baked in and irreversible. Thus far, one of the more powerful dynamics has been the market’s hesitation to bet long or short on price movement, because of the fluid and unpredictable nature of Trump’s on-again/off-again announcements regarding the war in Iran and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. We dissect it all and lay out the scenarios ahead and what it means for the American consumer.
