What if the most powerful skill you could develop as a designer has nothing to do with Figma or AI? In this episode, we explore why writing is the ultimate meta-skill—sharpening your thinking, influencing decisions, and accelerating your career in unexpected ways.Is writing the most underrated design skill of all time?We spend a lot of time talking about design skills like prototyping, facilitation, and AI tools. But what if the skill that strengthens all of those is the one designers most often ignore?In this episode, I sit down with Thijs Kraan, a designer-turned-growth partner, who makes the case that writing is the ultimate meta-skill. For Thijs, writing every day didn't just sharpen his thinking; it multiplied his impact. From running a 30-day challenge to publishing daily posts, writing became the catalyst for everything else in his career.We talk about the difference between business writing, expert writing, and copywriting, why clear writing equals clear thinking, and how documentation can protect your career when tough decisions come back months later. We also tackle the elephant in the room: AI. Should you let ChatGPT do your writing, or will that shortcut make you worse in the long run?Whether you're trying to influence stakeholders, sharpen your thinking, or just get better at your day-to-day communication, this conversation will show you why writing might just be the most important design skill you haven't been practicing.Tune in and see why it's time to pick up the pen (or keyboard).Topics:• 02:45 – The Importance of Writing in UX Design• 04:19 – Thijs Kron's Journey: From Web Development to Writing• 06:05 – The Power of Writing in Design Thinking• 06:31 – Building a Writing Habit• 15:06 – Writing as a Meta Skill• 20:55 – Different Types of Writing for Designers• 22:33 – The Role of Copywriting in Design• 24:36 – Writing as a Career Multiplier• 28:38 – The Impact of AI on Writing• 30:19 – Balancing AI and Human Thinking• 31:35 – Personal Experience with AI in Writing• 32:43 – Effective Uses of AI for Writing• 34:54 – The Risks of Over-Reliance on AI• 36:13 – Practical Tips for Writing and ThinkingHelpful Links:• Connect with Thijs on LinkedIn—Thanks for listening!

In this podcast episode, Kurt Francom and Dan Duckworth discuss the importance of addressing community tragedies within Latter-day Saint congregations. They explore how leaders can create spaces for healing and connection during difficult times, emphasizing the role of vulnerability and unity in fostering a supportive church environment. Dan Duckworth speaks, teaches, and writes on leadership, power, and systemic change. His forthcoming book, The Leader in Chains (spring 2026), challenges conventional ideas and calls for a radical rethinking of leadership—and how it is developed. Links Transcript available with the video in the Zion Lab community Overview Perception of Community Needs: Leaders should be attuned to the emotional climate of their congregations, recognizing when community tragedies impact members. This awareness can guide appropriate responses. Risk of Vulnerability: Addressing difficult topics in church settings can feel risky, but it is essential for fostering genuine connections and healing. Leaders should embrace this risk to create a supportive environment. Purpose of Church: The church serves not only as a place for learning doctrine but also as a community for healing and support. Engaging in open discussions about current events can strengthen faith and unity. Creating Safe Spaces: Leaders can facilitate discussions that allow members to express their feelings and experiences, promoting emotional processing and community bonding.

Dr. Rossi speaks with a colleague about an experience this colleague had at the Vigil for the Annunciation.

 "I come out of this with a sense of humor, and also some toxic skills. If there's anybody out there who kind of identifies here, these skills served you when you were young. So we don't want to shame those. Like, why am I this way? Why do I respond this way? Through the therapy I've been through, I would say you have to thank that part of you. For enabling you to survive. Because without my anger, I wouldn't have survived without the ability to fight. I think self-compassion is usually the answer for sustaining long-term change where you say, you know what, thank you for that."00:00 Walking on Eggshells :The Illusion of Normalcy04:14 Hank's Childhood: A Glimpse into Family Struggles07:48 Coping Mechanisms and Survival Skills25:22 Overcoming the Past: Becoming a Change Agent31:53 Scriptural Insights on Generational Trauma43:55 The Importance of Compassion49:52 Understanding Personal Spiritual Evidence01:00:33 Final ThoughtsSeptember 5th & 6th COME BACK TO CHRIST EVENT Tickets can be purchased at: https://www.comebackpodcast.org/come-back-to-christ-event-september-5-6-utah-valley-convention-center-provo-ut-3/Come Back to Christ Event Sponsors: https://templeboundsaints.org/https://www.dfcu.com/https://www.latterdaymatchmaker.com/https://www.matthewbraidleypianos.com/https://mikesautoshack.com/Memor Jewelry code COMEBACK for 10% off https://memorjewelry.com Serve Clothing code COMEBACK for 15% offhttps://serveclothing.com/If you have a story to share please contact ashly.comebackpodcast@gmail.comFor inquiries contact info.comebackpodcast@gmail.comCome Back Team:Director, Founder, & Host: Ashly StoneEditor: Cara ReedOutreach Manager: Jenna CarlsonAssistant Editor: Michelle BergerAssistant Editor: Britt SmallzeArt Director: Jeremy GarciaProduction Director: Trent Wardwell

Register for #WISE12 - Join us for the world's premier education innovation summit: https://wise-qatar.org/wise-12/ In this episode of WISE On Air, we explore the human side of #artificialintelligence with Professor Munther Dahleh, founding director of MIT's Institute for Data Systems and Society. As machines become increasingly capable, Munther argues that understanding people, not just #algorithms, will determine whether AI truly serves humanity. From his early work designing control systems for spacecraft to his current focus on societal applications of #AI, Munther shares insights on: - The "trilingual student" concept - why future innovators need technical skills, social science understanding, and domain expertise - Why he uses ChatGPT for reports but never for recommendation letters - The hidden dangers of "mediocre systems at scale" - How self-driving cars force us to confront moral decisions we never ask human drivers to make - Why he wishes he had studied more philosophy and anthropology - The future of healthcare, education, and work in an AI-driven world Munther challenges the notion that technological advancement alone will solve society's problems, emphasizing that the most critical breakthroughs may come from understanding human behavior, ethics, and social systems. About the Guest: Professor Munther Dahleh is a Professor at MIT and founding director of the Institute for Data Systems and Society. He is the author of "Data Systems and Society: Harnessing AI for Societal Good" and has spent over three decades working at the intersection of #technology and #society. 00:00 Introduction and Personal Experience with ChatGPT 00:22 Welcome to Wise On Air 00:30 Introducing Professor Munther Dahleh 02:02 The Journey to AI and Control Systems 04:13 From Machines to Social Networks 13:45 The Concept of Trilingual Students 15:28 AI's Impact on Society and Education 25:53 The Future of Jobs and Continuous Learning 29:10 Open Access and Vocational Education 30:31 Ethics and Data Privacy in AI 33:29 Self-Driving Cars and Moral Dilemmas 37:39 Global AI Collaboration and Geopolitics 42:36 AI's Role in Healthcare and Research 49:59 The Future of AI and Human Expertise 52:45 Final Thoughts and Advice for the Next Generation

In this personal solo episode, Carolin Rupp - Virtual Assistant, Social Media Manager, Community & Support Department Head at TMC, and Manifestor in motion - shares her behind-the-scenes journey of following the call to express, and the effect it had on people. From navigating criticism after her first solo podcast, alchemizing that anger to something magical to receiving messages that her words changed someone's life, Carolin reflects on what it really means to repel and magnetize as a Manifestor. She also opens up about the messy, brave leap she took to move abroad, and what it's like to clear out other people's opinions and finally follow the voice within - even when it tells you to do something wildly inconvenient, unexplainable, or risky. This is an invitation to all Manifestors who feel a little lost, a little different, and a little afraid of what might happen if they truly listened to themselves. You'll hear: • What happens when you share your voice (and people don't like it) • The difference between doing what's logical and doing what's aligned • What trusting the urge actually looks and feels like, and how it ripples. ✨ Whether you're in a season of uncertainty, standing on the edge of a bold decision, or simply curious how other Manifestors navigate repelling others and trusting their inner urge - this episode is for you.
