Welcome back to HappyPorch Radio: the circular economy technology podcast!Our hosts are joined by Lucy Wishart, lecturer in Circular Economy and Sustainable Transformations at the University of Edinburgh. In this episode they explore how rental models fit into academic, practical, and social aspects of circularity.From the idea of “consumption work” (and how rental reduces it) to what makes circular systems messy by nature, this conversation is packed with insight.Lucy explains how rental plays a key role in circular economy frameworks like the Nine R's and Product-Service Systems, offering an alternative to ownership-based consumption.The discussion explores both the potential and pitfalls of rental - from shifting consumption habits to labor and logistical challenges. "There's a distinction between circularity and the circular economy. Circularity can be quite small scale and local… but the circular economy requires more than one product, more than one organisation — it's collective. It requires us to work together."This podcast is brought to you by HappyPorch. We specialise in technology and software development for Circular Economy minded purpose-driven businesses. Our podcast focuses mostly on: Circular Economy, Digital Enablers, Technology, Software, Circular Solutions, Fashion & Textiles, Circular Strategies, Digital, Reuse, Circular Design, Circularity, Systems Thinking, Economics, Data, Platforms, Degrowth, Policy & Regulation, Collaboration, Materials, Supply Chain, Biological Cycles, Materials, Food Waste, Biomimicry, Construction, Modular Design, Culture & Language, Zero Waste, Digital Passports, Life Cycle Assessment, Recycling, Reverse Logistics, Materials, Sharing Economy, Manufacturing, Efficiency, Environmental Impact and much more!

Join Nick as he conducts a special masterclass mentoring session with guest Rohan Sheth, where they dive deep into the world of paid media advertising, exploring its significance for businesses at various stages of growth. Rohan, a seasoned expert and co-founder of the well-known agency GrowRev, shares insights from his extensive experience managing over $300 million in ad spend and generating over $2 billion in revenue for clients like Tony Robbins and Grant Cardone. The discussion covers common fears surrounding paid advertising, the importance of understanding customer lifetime value, and effective strategies for crafting compelling ad campaigns. KEY TAKEAWAYS Paid media is a powerful tool for scaling businesses quickly, but it requires a solid understanding of the numbers involved, such as customer acquisition cost and lifetime value. Knowing these metrics helps mitigate fears associated with spending money on ads. Different advertising platforms serve different purposes. For instance, LinkedIn is effective for B2B targeting, while Snapchat is emerging as a cost-effective option for lead generation, particularly in sectors like healthcare and telemedicine. Continuous testing of ad creatives, messaging, and targeting is crucial for optimising ad performance. Utilising AI tools can enhance this process by providing insights into audience segmentation and creative development. A clear understanding of the customer journey from awareness to conversion is essential. This involves ensuring that the messaging in ads aligns with what users see on landing pages to avoid confusion and increase conversion rates. Starting with a manageable budget (e.g., $50 a day) and maintaining consistency in ad spending is important for building momentum in advertising campaigns. Platforms favour advertisers who demonstrate consistent activity, which can lead to better performance over time. BEST MOMENTS "There is no quicker way to scale a business than by being able to turn on paid media and also turn it off." "Fear is the biggest one that I see a lot of the time... it comes down to understanding. There is a way to just light up money on fire." "If you know your lifetime value for customers is north of $20,000, I'd go to LinkedIn because you're going to get that." "The one thing Facebook likes to see is consistency. They'd rather you spend $50 a day consistently than turn it on and off." "Get really clear on that customer journey or that prospect to customer journey. That's critical."

This Matters is pleased to share a new podcast from the Toronto Star, TVO Podcasts, the Investigative Journalism Bureau and Piz Gloria Productions, Arachnid: Hunting the Web's Darkest Secrets.  What if the worst thing that ever happened to you plays out countless times on anonymous computer screens all over the world? Every day, tens of millions of images of child sexual abuse circulate on global online platforms. The proliferation of these images is getting worse as AI technology and deep fakes create an ever-expanding epidemic of online child sex exploitation. The children depicted in those criminal images are real. Many are now adults held hostage by these disturbing images despite available technology like Canada's Project Arachnid, which detects these images and sends out removal notices. Platforms often resist action, citing privacy laws. But in response, survivors and a group of motivated supporters are banding together across the globe to protect kids. Confronting their own trauma, they are speaking out, advocating for change internationally, and demanding stronger laws that hold tech giants to account. This six-part podcast series follows survivors' long-shot fight against the most powerful companies in the world to end a massive, global trade in child sex abuse imagery.

If work is a product, and employees are customers of that product, then every company is a multi-sided business, one that must serve both consumers and workers. According to platform economist Andrei Hagiu, how companies design that experience, how they structure control, pricing, and participation, matters more than we realize. He has spent his career studying the world's most influential platforms, from Uber and Airbnb to Apple and Amazon.

Barbara is the creator of Butter & Baggage and Easy Southern Desserts, where she shares her passion for approachable, home-cooked Southern recipes. She started Butter & Baggage in 2014, bringing decades of experience to help home cooks create delicious meals with confidence.

Send us a textSupply chain business networks distinguish themselves through the varying scopes and functionalities they offer across the operational landscape. Some platforms concentrate primarily on logistics and transportation, delivering strong real-time visibility solutions, while others take a more comprehensive approach by integrating upstream and downstream partners such as vendors, suppliers, and customers into a collaborative ecosystem. Notably, certain networks that originally emphasized document exchange have transformed into powerful hubs for data-driven insights and supplier onboarding, capitalizing on their expansive user communities. The extent of integration and geographic reach further separates these platforms—some boast extensive global infrastructure and port access, whereas others focus on specific regions. In this episode, our host Sam Gupta discusses the top 10 supply chain business network platforms in 2025. He also discusses several variables that influence the rankings of these supply chain business network platforms. Finally, he shares the pros and cons of each business network platform.Background Soundtrack: Away From You – Mauro SommFor more information on growth strategies for SMBs using ERP and digital transformation, visit our community at wbs. rocks or elevatiq.com.

You know you've crossed over when your life reflects your soul, not your survival. My inner child is screaming/whispering, "omgomgomg," because it's finally happening. Since my teens, I've been choosing myself, even when it was hard, even when I didn't fully know who I was. I kept choosing until it stuck. Now, adulthood isn't an arrival, it's a daily becoming. It means no longer abandoning the parts of me once called too much, too sensitive, too bold, too magical, too Black, too brown. I'm not just surviving anymore, I'm finally living as me. This episode is for anyone who hears their younger self whisper, “Thank you for not giving up on me.”As an energy exchange, please rate, review and write a loving note to host Areena Antoine on Spotify, Apple Podcast and All major Platforms.

Welcome back to HappyPorch Radio: the circular economy technology podcast!In this episode, our hosts Tandi Tuakli and Barry O'Kane had a fascinating conversation with Leah Pollen, a specialist in profitability and circular strategies within the used electronics market, particularly mobile devices. Leah shares deep insights into how the mobile phone industry's leasing and trade-in programs—especially driven by OEMs like Apple and Samsung—created what she calls “accidental circularity.” Leah also explains the business case for phone rental models, including calculations around device depreciation, residual value, repair logistics, and customer return behaviors.One of the biggest barriers Leah identifies is mindset. Many organisations are still entrenched in linear thinking—focusing on sales volume, product obsolescence, and short-term wins. She stresses the importance of redefining what product success looks like in a circular model.Our hosts and Leah draw parallels between mobile phones and other sectors like fashion, luxury goods, and homeware—discussing where circular lessons could be applied and where challenges persist due to differing value chains and consumer behaviors.This podcast is brought to you by HappyPorch.

E402– "Inner Voice: A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan Zeine." In this episode, Dr. Foojan Zeine chats with Tami Kiekhaefer, LCSW, a seasoned psychotherapist with nearly 25 years in private practice. As the author of From Chaos to Calm: A Six-Step Strategy to Break Through Anxiety and Preparing for the Jungle: Avoiding Snakes and Pitfalls on the Path to Healthy Love, she empowers high-achieving women to break free from anxiety, trauma, and relationship challenges. Tami's approach blends practical strategies with deep self-awareness, helping clients build confidence and resilience. She offers virtual, confidential sessions via phone and Zoom, making support accessible no matter where you are.  www.healthyhealing.net # 1 on the 20 Best California Mental Health Podcasts list by FeedSpot. https://podcasts.feedspot.com/california_mental_health_podcasts Check out my website: www.FoojanZeine.com, www.AwarenessIntegration.com, www.Foojan.com Summary Dr. and Tami discussed the topic of anxiety, its normality, and its impact on individuals. Tami emphasized the importance of recognizing the roots of anxiety, which she identified as a lack of control over one's environment and negative thought patterns. She also highlighted the significance of being aware of one's body and managing its symptoms to prevent anxiety from spiraling out of control. They discussed the benefits of body-centered yoga and meditation techniques for stress management. Tami shared her experience of using these techniques to lower her blood pressure and emphasized the importance of breathing exercises. Dr. suggested incorporating singing into breathing exercises to make them more enjoyable. They also discussed the prevalence of panic attacks masquerading as heart attacks, with Tami estimating that around 80% of ER visits for suspected heart attacks are panic attacks. Tami discussed the importance of managing anxiety by activating the left brain to assess situations logically rather than relying solely on emotions. She emphasized that the left brain cannot be used simultaneously with the right brain, which is responsible for emotions and creativity. Tami suggested exercises to activate the left brain, allowing for a more logical approach to anxiety. Tami indicated that people often feel out of control when they focus on external factors and that they can regain a sense of safety by shifting their attention to internal control. She proposed writing down what one can and cannot control, emphasizing that the list of controllable factors is usually longer than the uncontrollable ones. Dr. agreed, adding that even if one cannot control external events, they can control their own actions and reactions. The conversation ended with Tami encouraging people to focus on their skills, accomplishments, and marketability to boost their confidence and reduce anxiety. Dr. discussed various types of anxieties, including existential ones such as moving from one phase of life to another, anxieties about illnesses, death, and loneliness, and anxieties about past completions and redefining oneself. Tami shared her theory about experiencing multiple midlife crises every 7 years, which she believes is linked to her children's developmental stages. Both agreed that these transitions often involve unknowns and a lack of confidence in oneself, as one has not yet proven their ability to navigate these new situations. Tami and Dr. discussed strategies for overcoming anxiety and building confidence. Tami emphasized the importance of facing fears and avoiding avoidance, which can exacerbate anxiety. Dr. shared his approach of focusing on strengths and resilience and trusting himself to learn and adapt. They also discussed the importance of self-trust and executive functioning in managing anxiety. Tami used the example of driving in the snow to illustrate how avoidance can lead to a downward spiral and how facing fears incrementally can help build confidence. Tami and Dr. discussed the impact of anxiety on individuals, particularly during the pandemic. They highlighted how anxiety can be both a collective and personal experience fueled by external factors such as social media and news. Tami emphasized the importance of recognizing anxiety as an emotion and not letting it control one's life. She shared personal experiences and strategies for managing anxiety, including naming it and practicing gratitude. The conversation concluded with Tami encouraging others to seek help and guidance in managing their anxiety.

How the United States' regulation of broadband pipelines, digital platforms, and data—together understood as “the cloud”—has eroded civil liberties, democratic principles, and the foundation of the public interest over the past century. Cloud Policy: A History of Regulating Pipelines, Platforms, and Data (MIT Press, 2024) is a policy history that chronicles how the past century of regulating media infrastructure in the United States has eroded global civil liberties as well as democratic principles and the foundation of the public interest. Jennifer Holt explores the long arc of regulating broadband pipelines, digital platforms, and the data centers that serve as the cloud's storage facilities—an evolution that is connected to the development of nineteenth- and twentieth-century media and networks, including railroads, highways, telephony, radio, and television. In the process, Cloud Policy unearths the lasting inscriptions of policy written for an analog era and markets that no longer exist on the contemporary governance of digital cloud infrastructure.Cloud Policy brings together numerous perspectives that have thus far remained largely siloed in their respective fields of law, policy, economics, and media studies. The resulting interdisciplinary argument reveals a properly scaled view of the massive challenge facing policymakers today. Holt also addresses the evolving role of the state in the regulation of global cloud infrastructure and the growing influence of corporate gatekeepers and private sector self-governance. Cloud policy's trajectory, as Holt explains, has enacted a transformation in the cultural valuation of infrastructure as civic good, turning it into a tool of commercial profit generation. Despite these current predicaments, the book's historical lens ultimately helps the reader to envision restorative interventions and new forms of activism to create a more equitable future for infrastructure policy.

Welcome back to HappyPorch Radio: the circular economy technology podcast!In this special episode our host Barry O'Kane is joined by Charlotte Morley, CEO of thelittleloop, and Ryan Atkins, CEO of Supercycle, to discuss the ripple effects of - ongoing and very fluid - changes to US tariffs and De Minimis import rules on the circular economy in the UK, EU, and US. The conversation, which originated from a passionate exchange on LinkedIn, explores both the opportunities and challenges these potential policy changes present for circularity-focused businesses. The discussion ranges widely from there, covering everything from policy to the importance of smaller, ethical brands to circularity.We discussed how reduced ease of importing low-cost new goods could boost demand for resale and second-hand markets, potentially benefiting the circular economy. While acknowledging the long-term benefits, our guests explained that many small ethical and sustainable brands are already overwhelmed by rising costs, market saturation from fast-fashion giants like Shein and Temu, and how, potentially, additional pressure from tariffs could undermine the "feedstock" of quality products essential for a thriving circular economy.Both guests stress the importance of empathy and support for brands navigating these tough times. They discuss how circularity enablers like their own companies must make circular business models (like takeback and resale programs) as frictionless and financially viable as possible. They also touch on the slow progress of legislation and the need for government mandates and funding to truly shift the industry toward reuse, not just recycling.The conversation concludes with a call to action for both policy involvement and practical support to ensure circularity is not just a long-term goal, but a near-term strategic advantage for businesses.Tune in to learn about how there is, despite current difficulties, a sense of cautious optimism: more brands are beginning to prioritise circularity, although slowly.This podcast is brought to you by HappyPorch. We specialise in technology and software development for Circular Economy minded purpose-driven businesses.

Helicopters and offshore oil platform operations can be a deadly combination. John Goglia and Todd Curtis discuss two accidents to illustrate aviation safety concerns.In a 2010 accident discussed, maintenance and managerial failures resulted in minor damage and no injuries because of the pilot's skill. Another is a fatal accident that killed all on board due to the pilot not following the helicopter operator's standard procedures for landing and taking off.In the 2010 accident there were multiple missed inspections by mechanics and pilots over several days, including the accident flight. The poor maintenance effort led to system malfunctions that prevented the pilot from fully controlling the helicopter, forcing the pilot to make a running landing at about 45 knots.In a 2022 accident, the pilot landed away from the center of the helideck and the rear of the right skid was over the edge of the helipad and adjacent to a raised perimeter light. When the pilot took off, the right skid contacted a perimeter light, causing the helicopter to roll sharply to the right. The helicopter struck the helideck, rolled off the oil rig, and sank. The pilot has a documented history of not following takeoff and landing procedures on most of his flights to and from oil rigs.

Platforms change, trends come and go. Brand fundamentals must remain. That's the opinion of this week's guest, Kathryn Swallow - worldwide head of Unilever's deodorants category, previously the global VP for Rexona (Sure) and Dove. Among all of Unilever's brands, the deodorant category stands out thanks to the global success of those brands as well as Lynx (Axe), and their success is owed in part, Kathryn says, to a deep understanding and respect for a brand's positioning, purpose and and proposition.   In this, we ask how brands can stay true to their core - and communicate that - among fast-moving tech, endless data, modernising audiences and, of course, social media. And we find out how Unilever's deodorant brands approach the above to ensure they don't just stay relevant, but are revered.   Got a question or a suggestion for the SocialMinds podcast?
