Nick Goad, BCG's global co-leader for retail merchandising, argues that retail's biggest problem isn't a lack of data, it's the gap between data and real customer understanding. He explains how AI and large language models are finally bridging that divide, making it possible to localize assortment, sharpen pricing, and accelerate product innovation at scale. For leaders wondering where to start, he makes the case for codifying the knowledge already in merchants' heads.What You'll Learn:Retailers have more data than ever, but AI finally gives them the tools to turn it into action merchants can actually trust.The biggest near-term opportunities are in assortment localization, smarter pricing, and AI-accelerated product innovation.The new data advantage for retailers isn't raw data — it's codifying the knowledge already in their merchants' heads.Learn More:BCG's Latest Thinking on the Retail Industry: https://on.bcg.com/4bYoe8xMerch AI by BCGX: https://on.bcg.com/3RxTfJFChapters(0:00) Has Retail Lost Its Personal Touch?(1:13) Serving Customers Before the Digital Age(2:33) The Internet's Impact on Retail(3:11) Does More Data Mean Better Customer Understanding?(4:12) Why Are Retailers Drowning in Complexity?(5:32) What Can AI Do to Help Retailers?(7:02) Will AI Create a New Data Overload?(7:54) What Are Retail Leaders Hopes and Fears for AI?(9:02) Will AI Get Products to the Shelf Faster?(9:57) Will AI Influence Product Design?(10:37) Can AI Create More Personalized Loyalty Programs?(11:34) How Will AI Shape the Shopping Experience?(12:02) Is Physical Retail Here to Stay?(13:36) Will AI Make All Our Shopping Decisions for Us?(14:23) Where Can Retailers Make the Biggest Changes?(15:00) Where Should Retailers Apply AI First?(15:48) What New Data Advantage Can AI Create?Meet the Expert:Nick Goad, BCG Managing Director & Senior Partner: https://on.bcg.com/4wuIlU0Listen to Other Episodes of The So What from BCG podcastPunch Cards, Frequent Flyers, and the Future of Loyalty: https://lnk.to/so-what-BCG-Crouch-Loyalty09YouTube | https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLMJgyXjV5gMI9JV-GcF_D1Y6zyf1Eab_0&si=plXqe7-YNzbG56U8Apple | https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-so-what-from-bcg/id1591194141Spotify | https://open.spotify.com/show/2NSVR7qrAyZ4CaGsnknbBk?si=1d846c2af8784923Other platforms | https://lnk.to/so-what-general-show12Follow BCGhttps://www.bcg.com/LinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/company/boston-consulting-groupThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podtrac - https://analytics.podtrac.com/privacy-policy-gdrp
Take the Why You're Stuck In A Sex Rut Quiz now! https://TheBetterBedroom.com If you feel more like roommates, co-parents, or logistical planning partners than lovers, your phone might be a bigger part of the problem than you think. In this episode, Heather Shannon — certified sex therapist with 20 years of counseling experience — breaks down what constant phone use is actually doing to your sex drive and your relationship, and how getting present again brings your desire back with it.What You'll Learn00:02 — Why phone use might be quietly killing your sex life, and what a 2025 University of Connecticut/Columbia study found about phone use, conflict, and intimacy in relationships02:27 — The societal shift toward disconnection: distracted driving, ignored bids for attention, and the disappearing "hello" when you walk into a shop04:54 — Why being "in your head" instead of "in your body" is one of the biggest hidden causes of performance anxiety, difficulty orgasming, and disconnection from your partner07:16 — How to audit your own phone use: what you actually want vs. what your actions show, and why this matters even more for men who weren't encouraged to be in touch with their emotions09:38 — What you get back when you put the phone down: presence, laughter, working out as a body-awareness practice, and why boredom can actually be good for your sex life11:52 — The trade-off most people don't examine: what you're sacrificing for a quick dopamine hit (and a mention of the book Dopamine Nation)14:15 — Heather's own 48-hour phone experiment: turning off text, WhatsApp, social media, and email for a weekend — and what it did to her nervous system and her sex drive16:32 — Practical solutions: checking in with yourself before you scroll, using Screen Time/Downtime limits, and why limits alone aren't enough — you have to decide how you actually want to spend your timeJoin the 30-Day ChallengeHeather's considering building a 30-day cell-phone-reducing, relationship-presence-boosting challenge.

Today I am speaking with food historian Peter Gilchrist and food writer Ross Clarke, who specialise in writing about and rediscovering the traditional foods of Scotland and Wales, respectively.Peter is a returning guest who goes under the name Tenement Kitchen and is the co-host of The Scottish Food History Podcast. Ross is a food and travel writer and author of The Welsh Kitchen on Substack.They both use a bakestone or griddle (or whatever you call yours – there are quite a few names for the usually round, usually iron piece of iron we bake our crumpets, drop scones, muffins and Welsh cakes upon) and I thought we should discuss using them and some of the best of British bakestone bakes. We talk about the place of bakestones and griddles in British food culture, Welsh cakes, bannocks and pikelets, classic writers such as Bobby Freeman and F. Marion McNeill and the applied uses of bacon fat, amongst many other things.Those listening to the secret podcast get plenty of bonus material where we discuss adapting traditional recipes to keep them relevant, how annoyed I get when classic recipes get messed around with, what we get out of recreating historical recipes and buttermilk – plus more.Follow Peter on social media: @TenementKitchen on Facebook, Insta, Bluesky, X and TikTokFollow Ross on Social Media: @theguiri on Insta, @rosswclarke on X and FacebookTenement Kitchen websiteThe Welsh Kitchen on SubstackSeason 10 of the podcast is sponsored by Netherton Foundry, makers of high-quality kitchen and outdoor cookware.

This week on the show we're discussing a real life example of how home service businesses operate when they don't have their systems dialed in. Without the proper CRM and real processes, you and your team are winging it. You're losing time and money while everyone's frustrated because they're not on the same page.In this example a large landscaping project was what the homeonwere needed. They called 10 different companies and only one called back.Those other companies lost money just by not having a process in place to return calls.What stands out in this situation are massive opportunities to streamline operations. Between a three-hour scope meeting, handwritten quotes, and communication happening through personal cell phones, there's clear potential to implement software and systems that would transform how the business operates.When business owners say cash flow is the problem, maybe it's time to take a look at a few simple things: Where are you spending your time? Are there some processes that could be automated? Is it time to let go of the old ways of doing things and update by bringing in software?HighlightsManual quote process means your team is never on the same page.Being the one who answers the phone is the simplest way to stand out make sure you have a system for callbacks.Operations are the foundation - everything else builds on that.Implementing a communication platform shows professionalism and streamlines communication so your team isn't texting clients from their personal phones.Get in touch with us:Check out the Blue Collar BS website.Steve Doyle:WebsiteLinkedInEmailBrad Herda:WebsiteLinkedInEmailThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podtrac - https://analytics.podtrac.com/privacy-policy-gdrpOP3 - https://op3.dev/privacy
In this guest episode, Nimesh is joined by Mark J Platten for a grounded and powerful conversation about what happens when your soul begins calling you beyond the life, identity or work you have built.Mark shares his lifelong connection with nature and how the Earth has guided, held and supported him throughout his life. For Mark, nature is not just somewhere we go. It is a relationship. It communicates, grounds us and reminds us that we are never truly alone.One of the most powerful moments in this conversation is when Mark shares the guidance he received during COVID: you are doing good work in the world, but it is not your soul work. That message became part of a much deeper transition, eventually leading him out of his academic career and into a new chapter of listening, surrendering and trusting what his soul was calling him towards.Together, Nimesh and Mark explore nature connection, masculine energy, midlife transformation, fear, community, emotional intelligence and why so many people are being called into a more heart-led and soul-aligned way of living.This conversation is for anyone questioning their path, feeling called into change, or sensing that their soul is asking for something deeper.Also available to watch on YouTube.If this episode resonates, please like, comment, and follow the podcast.In This Episode✨ Mark's deep relationship with nature and the Earth✨ What happens when your soul calls you beyond the life you built✨ The difference between good work and soul work✨ Masculine energy, midlife transformation and emotional intelligence✨ Community, fear, change and the importance of elder wisdomWhat You'll Take Away✨ You can be doing good work and still feel called into deeper soul work✨ Nature can help you remember who you truly are✨ Fear does not always mean stop; it may be showing you where growth is calling✨ Men need spaces for honesty, support and emotional connection✨ Surrendering does not mean giving up; it means listening more deeplyGuest BioMark J Platten is a teacher, writer and men's work facilitator whose work explores nature connection, soul alignment, midlife transformation, masculine growth and the relationship between humans and the Earth.

Take the free quiz to find out why you're stuck in a sex rut: https://TheBetterBedroom.comWhat does it actually take to feel dominant in the bedroom, and why do so many of us freeze up when it's our turn to lead? In this episode, Heather sits down with Amanda Dames, a kink consultant and former professional dominatrix, to break down the real skills behind dominance, submission, and power dynamics in a relationship.Amanda spent two years working at a dungeon while holding down a corporate job at the Wall Street Journal, and she brings that hands-on experience into a real conversation about how dominant and submissive roles actually work, how to figure out your own authentic style, and how to vet a partner for safety before you ever get started. They cover the different types of Doms (Master, Traditional Dom, Caretaker Dom, and Pleasure Dom), the different types of submissives (service subs, slaves, baby girls and boys), the red flags that signal an unhealthy power dynamic, and why most of what we see about kink and BDSM in movies sets totally unrealistic expectations.If you're ready to go deeper than a podcast episode, visit https://HeatherShannon.co to request a free consultation and learn about Heather's signature Pathway to Passion coaching program.Timestamps: 0:00 Amanda's path from marine biology to the Wall Street Journal to a Craigslist dominatrix job 4:30 Discovering a more powerful, dominant version of herself 8:00 What a Dom's real job actually is, and how to avoid burnout 17:00 Why you need to talk to your partner before you talk divorce 19:30 How a real negotiation between a Dom and a client actually works 26:30 Why being patient with yourself matters more than getting it right the first time 30:00 The four types of Dominants, explained 36:20 The submissive types, and how to find your own style 37:50 How to vet a Dom (or any partner) for safety 45:00 Why movies like Secretary and Baby Girl are not how-to videos 51:00 Amanda's free worksheet for talking about your desires with confidenceTake the free quiz: https://TheBetterBedroom.comLearn more about Heather's Pathway to Passion coaching: https://HeatherShannon.coGet Amanda's free worksheet, Speaking Your Desires With Confidence: https://AmandaDames.comThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podtrac - https://analytics.podtrac.com/privacy-policy-gdrp
In this solo episode, Nimesh explores the current energetic shift and why so many people are feeling unsettled, emotional, in limbo, or unsure of what is coming next.This episode is a follow-on from the recent conversations around the shift, but it goes deeper into presence. Not presence as a spiritual concept, but presence as something the human self can find uncomfortable when life feels uncertain.Many of us are used to searching for answers, healing, analysing, planning and trying to understand what everything means. But what if this phase is asking us to stop searching for a moment and simply be with what is here?Nimesh shares how the space between the old life and the new life can feel like a void. The old version no longer fits, but the new version has not fully landed. In that space, expectations, emotions, relationships, old identities and suppressed feelings can rise to the surface.This is not a time to bypass what you feel. It is a time to be honest with yourself, release the pressure to understand everything, connect with your guides, and trust that the answers will come in divine timing.This episode is for anyone feeling emotional, uncomfortable, uncertain, physically sensitive, or aware that something deep is shifting within them and around them.Also available to watch on YouTube.If this episode resonates, please like, comment, and follow the podcast.In This Episode✨ Why the present can feel uncomfortable during a spiritual shift✨ The void between the old life and the new life✨ Why searching for answers can become a form of safety✨ How to feel emotions without analysing or suppressing them✨ Building a deeper connection with your guides and soul teamWhat You'll Take Away✨ Presence is one of the most powerful tools during uncertain times✨ You do not need to understand every emotion before you feel it✨ Expectations can make the current phase feel heavier✨ Your guides and higher self are supporting you, even when answers are not clear✨ Divine timing may bring clarity when you are ready to receive itContinue Your Journey✨ Spiritual Journey MembershipJoin a safe and supportive spiritual community with monthly teachings, guided meditations, energy updates and space to grow alongside others on the path.https://nimesh-radia.com/spiritual-membership/✨ Book a Free Discovery Call with NimeshIf this episode speaks to where you are right now, you can book a free discovery call to explore spiritual mentorship, Akashic Records or deeper support.https://calendly.com/spiritualjourney/30min✨ Explore an Akashic Record ReadingIf you feel called to understand your soul contracts, patterns, purpose or guidance more deeply, an Akashic Record Reading can support that journey.https://calendly.com/spiritualjourney/akashic-record-readingConnect with NimeshEmail: nims@nimesh-radia.comWebsite: https://nimesh-radia.comPodcast: https://nimesh-radia.com/podcast/Discovery Call: https://calendly.com/spiritualjourney/30minAkashic Record Reading: https://calendly.com/spiritualjourney/akashic-record-readingInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/nimesh_radia/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/nimesh.radiaLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nimesh-radiaReflectionWhat are you still trying to understand that your soul may simply be asking you to feel?This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podtrac - https://analytics.podtrac.com/privacy-policy-gdrp

Brooke Laing is a steam fitter and welder apprentice in her third year with UA Local 46 in Toronto. She's also the Chief of Strategy for the Sisterhood of Trades and just started her own podcast. So she's got something to say about what it's really like for women coming into the trades right now.The barriers are real. Women have to prove themselves in ways men don't. There's harassment that supervisors aren't taking seriously. And trying to find PPE that actually fits? Good luck. But the industry is starting to shift some employers are finally getting it.The flip side is that women are crushing it in the trades. Better attention to detail, willing to do the work right instead of just fast. And young women are discovering this through social media where tradeswomen are showing the real side of the job.Getting women into the trades isn't that complicated. Union apprenticeships are structured and solid. Networking opens doors. And having a community like the Sisterhood means you're not figuring it out alone.Highlights:Women entering trades face barriers like have to prove themselves constantly and dealing with harassment that goes nowhere.PPE that actually fits women is harder to find than it should be.Social media is how young people are actually learning about what trades look like.Union apprenticeships provide structure and community that matters.Employers who take complaints seriously and create safer environments are seeing the shift happening.Make sure to subscribe to Blue Collar BS where we talk about the things most don't want to talk about so we can help move the trades forward.

In this guest episode, Nimesh and Stacey are joined by Rickie Freedman for a powerful conversation about Reiki, energy management, intuition, self-healing and the power of using your voice.Rickie shares her journey from physical therapy into Reiki, and how what began as a personal healing path became her life's work. She speaks about Reiki not just as something you receive in a session, but as a way of living, grounding your energy, staying heart-centred and becoming a healing presence in the world.Stacey also shares one of the most profound Reiki experiences of her life, when intuitive guidance during a hospital visit helped her recognise something serious happening with her son. It is a deeply moving reminder of what can happen when we trust the messages and energy that come through.Together, Nimesh, Stacey and Rickie explore self-Reiki, receiving healing as a practitioner, finding someone you trust, and why healers also need to be supported.Rickie also shares the message she received that she is the voice of Reiki, and how voice, vibration and speaking her truth have become part of her next evolution.This episode is for anyone curious about Reiki, energy healing, spiritual growth, intuitive guidance or learning how to manage their energy in a more grounded and heart-centred way.Also available to watch on YouTube.If this episode resonates, please like, comment, and follow the podcast.In This Episode✨ Rickie's journey from physical therapy to Reiki Master Teacher✨ Why Reiki is a powerful energy management system✨ Stacey's deeply personal story of Reiki, intuition and her son's healing journey✨ The importance of self-Reiki, receiving support and staying energetically grounded✨ How voice, vibration and trust become part of the healing pathWhat You'll Take Away✨ Reiki can support healing on a physical, emotional, mental and spiritual level✨ Managing your energy is essential, especially if you are sensitive or empathic✨ Healers need healing too, and receiving support is part of the work✨ Trust and safety matter deeply when choosing a practitioner or guide✨ Your voice carries energy, truth and healingGuest BioRickie Freedman is a Reiki Master Teacher, Physical Therapist, Certified Holistic Wellness Coach, author and founder of Reiki by Rickie, ReikiSpace & Learning Place.

It supports you in releasing attachments, expectations, past life karma, ancestral energy and anything that no longer belongs in your next chapter.

It is not about forcing answers or needing to understand everything with the mind. It is about feeling, trusting, receiving and allowing your energy to shift.Listen to this meditation when you have space to relax, close your eyes and be fully present.

In this solo episode, Nimesh explores the powerful spiritual shift many people are feeling right now, both personally and collectively.This is not just another period of change. Many are experiencing more in days and weeks than they previously would have processed in months or even years. Old identities are falling away, soul contracts are shifting, relationships are changing, and the version of life that once felt familiar may no longer feel aligned.Nimesh shares reflections on the current collective energy, the movement from ego-led living into heart-led embodiment, and the deeper shift from divine masculine into divine feminine energy. This is a time where many people are being asked to stop shrinking, stop waiting, and begin taking aligned action from the soul.This episode is not about forcing big decisions or needing to know every step ahead. It is about learning to trust what you feel, listening to your intuition, building a deeper relationship with your guides, and taking one aligned step at a time.Nimesh also explores the difference between a personal shift and a collective shift, and why so many people are feeling uncomfortable, emotional, unbalanced or unsure of what is coming next. Rather than seeing this as something wrong, this episode invites you to see it as part of a deeper awakening and embodiment process.This is a reminder that you are not here by accident. Your light matters. Your energy matters. Your presence matters. You are being invited to speak your truth, prioritise your self-care, look honestly at your soul family, and stop waiting for permission to become who your soul already knows you are.Also available to watch on YouTube.If this episode resonates, please like, comment, and follow the podcast.In This Episode✨ Why the current spiritual shift feels so intense✨ The difference between a personal shift and a collective shift✨ How to trust your intuition when life feels uncertain✨ Why this is a time to stop shrinking and speak your truth✨ How to take aligned action without needing to know every stepWhat You'll Take Away✨ You are not imagining the intensity of this current shift✨ Self-care is essential when the collective energy feels heavy✨ Your intuition will guide you one step at a time✨ This is a time to embody who you are, not wait for permission✨ Small aligned actions can create powerful ripple effectsContinue Your Journey✨ Spiritual Journey MembershipJoin a safe and supportive spiritual community with monthly teachings, guided meditations, energy updates and space to grow alongside others on the path.https://nimesh-radia.com/spiritual-membership/✨ Book a Free Discovery Call with NimeshIf this episode speaks to where you are right now, you can book a free discovery call to explore spiritual mentorship, Akashic Records or deeper support.https://calendly.com/spiritualjourney/30min✨ Explore an Akashic Record ReadingIf you feel called to understand your soul contracts, patterns, purpose or guidance more deeply, an Akashic Record Reading can support that journey.https://calendly.com/spiritualjourney/akashic-record-readingConnect with NimeshEmail: nims@nimesh-radia.comWebsite: https://nimesh-radia.comPodcast: https://nimesh-radia.com/podcast/Discovery Call: https://calendly.com/spiritualjourney/30minAkashic Record Reading: https://calendly.com/spiritualjourney/akashic-record-readingInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/nimesh_radia/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/nimesh.radiaLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nimesh-radiaReflectionWhere in your life are you being asked to stop waiting, trust what you feel, and take one aligned step forward?This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podtrac - https://analytics.podtrac.com/privacy-policy-gdrp

Happy 4th of July to my listeners in the USA…and all of those around the world who also celebrate the day!It's a big one because the US is celebrating 250 years of independence this year. And to mark this special day, I have a special guest, Professor Nancy Siegel, and we are going to talk about the roles food and drink – especially tea and cake – played.Nancy Siegal is Professor of Art History and Culinary History at Towson University, Maryland. She specialises in American landscape studies, underrepresented women artists of the 19th century, print culture, and culinary history of the 18th and 19th centuries. Lucky for me, Nancy was in London, visiting the British Library at the same time I was in London, so we got to record this conversation in person in the breakfast room of Nancy's hotel, the Harlingford Hotel – a big thank you to them.Nancy has an excellent book that isn't out until the autumn, but I was lucky enough to get a sneak peek at it, called Political Appetites: The Power of Food in Revolutionary America, published by Johns Hopkins University Press. In that book, Nancy documents the roles food and drinks, especially tea (and its trappings) played in the colonists of North America wanting to sever their ties with Britain, and how food was used to help distance themselves culturally from the British – at first the colonists very much identified as British.We talk about the tax on tea and the Boston Tea Party, tea alternatives, culinary activists such as the women of Edenton, giant independence cakes, Amelia Simmons, and how the people of the new USA used food and drink to culturally distance themselves from the British – amongst many other things.Those listening to the secret podcast get LOADS of bonus material where we discuss George III's botanist, pride in abundance, the value of hunting out original documents, baking fails, the all-American apple pie, and the function of satire – plus more.Nancy's page on the Towson University websitePolitical Appetites: The Power of Food in Revolutionary AmericaSeason 10 of the podcast is sponsored by Netherton Foundry, makers of high-quality kitchen and outdoor cookware.

A lot of younger workers are going through major organizational change for the first time. When leadership announces big shifts without spelling out what success looks like, they're left trying to figure it out on their own. They came in with their trust bucket full. But when the clarity doesn't show up, that bucket empties fast.The real problem isn't the change itself. It's announcing change without defining what success looks like. If people don't know what they're working toward, why would they get on board? They're just going to come in, do the minimum, and move on.Define what's changing. Be clear about what winning means. Set a date to revisit it. And then actually show up. Because people believe what you do, not what you say.Highlights: Younger workers experiencing organizational change for the first time have nothing to compare it to confusion and unclear expectations empty their trust bucket fast.Transparency without clarity just creates opaqueness.When leaders aren't around during change, people stop working as a team and start protecting themselves.Your actions tell the real story not your words.Make sure to subscribe to Blue Collar BS so you don't miss what's happening in the trades.

In this guest episode, Nimesh is joined by Louise Chong for a deeply soulful and practical conversation about soul contracts, spiritual guides, the Akashic Records, healing, and the powerful connection between our inner world and the homes we live in.Louise shares her journey through a dark night of the soul, a period where life felt heavy from many directions. Her health, family responsibilities, relationship changes, and the pressure of holding everything together all became part of a deeper awakening. In that moment, she realised she could no longer carry everything alone.Through counselling, spiritual mentorship, journaling, meditation and the Akashic Records, Louise began to understand her experiences from a wider soul perspective. She speaks honestly about the soul contracts connected to relationships, family, motherhood and home, and how seeing these experiences through the lens of the soul helped her move through pain with more awareness, compassion and trust.This conversation is a reminder that spiritual growth is not about pretending the human experience is easy. It is about learning how to be supported through it. Nimesh and Louise explore why asking for help is such an important part of the path, both from people in the human world and from the guides, energy and unseen support around us.Louise also shares the beautiful work of House Whispering, a modality that explores the relationship between the energy of a home and the people living in it. She explains how homes can hold memory, history, emotion and story, and how the spaces around us can often reflect what is happening within us.This episode is for anyone moving through relationship challenges, family healing, spiritual awakening, a dark night of the soul, or a deeper calling to understand the energy of their life and home. It is an invitation to ask for help, trust what you feel, and follow where your heart is guiding you next.Also available to watch on YouTube.If this episode resonates, please like, comment, and follow the podcast.In This Episode✨ Louise's journey through a dark night of the soul and deep healing✨ How soul contracts can shape relationships, family dynamics and awakening✨ Why asking for help is a powerful part of the spiritual path✨ How guides can communicate through feelings, dreams, signs and synchronicities✨ What House Whispering reveals about the energy of homeWhat You'll Take Away✨ You do not have to carry everything alone✨ Painful relationships can hold deeper soul lessons and healing✨ Your guides may already be supporting you in ways you are beginning to notice✨ Your home can reflect your inner world, energy and growth✨ Following your heart can open the next chapter of your spiritual journeyGuest BioLouise Chong is a House Whispering Consultant, Spiritual Mentor, Akashic Record Reader and Angelic Reiki Master.

What if nothing is missing in this phase of your journey?July brings a powerful Akashic message of inner recalibration, new beginnings, emotional clearing and deeper trust in your own soul. This is a month where the energy may feel different, not because you are behind, but because you are adjusting to a new vibration.In this episode, Nimesh opens the Akashic Records and channels a collective message for July. The guidance is clear: this is not a time to force, fix or rush. It is a time to come back to yourself, listen to your intuition, take one aligned action at a time and stop looking outside of yourself for confirmation your soul has already given you.Many of us are moving through a reset. Old timelines are clearing. Truths are rising to the surface. The physical body may be responding to the energetic shifts taking place. Your emotions may feel heightened, your intuition may feel stronger, and your connection to your guides, ancestors and higher support may feel closer than before.This message is a reminder that you are not broken. You do not need to keep searching for what is wrong with you. You are being invited to know this version of yourself, to honour your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual bodies, and to trust the quiet guidance that has always been within you.July asks you to stop hiding, stop dimming your light and stop waiting for the perfect moment to begin again. The next phase does not require massive action. It asks for honest action. Small steps. Deeper trust. More presence. More self-love.In This Episode✨ Why July is a month of inner recalibration and energetic adjustment✨ How to trust your intuition instead of constantly seeking external confirmation✨ Why old timelines, attachments and emotional patterns may be clearing now✨ The importance of caring for your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual bodies✨ How small aligned actions can create powerful shifts over timeWhat You'll Take Away✨ You are not behind; you are adjusting to a new energy✨ Your soul already knows more than your mind may understand✨ Emotional intensity can be part of clearing old timelines✨ You do not need fixing; you need presence, rest and self-trust✨ This is a time to shine your light and allow yourself to be supportedSound Bites✨ “Nothing is missing in this phase.”✨ “You are the bridge to the new energy.”✨ “Shine your light unconditionally.”Continue Your JourneySpiritual Journey MembershipA supportive space for deeper connection, monthly guidance, meditation and spiritual community.https://nimesh-radia.com/spiritual-membership/Book a Discovery CallIf this message resonates and you feel called to explore working together, you can book a discovery call here:https://calendly.com/spiritualjourney/30minExplore Akashic Readings, Akashic Training and Spiritual MentorshipFind out more about Nimesh's work and the different ways you can be supported on your journey.https://nimesh-radia.comReflectionWhere are you still waiting for external confirmation when your soul has already given you the answer?Connect with NimeshWebsite: https://nimesh-radia.comPodcast: https://nimesh-radia.com/podcast/Email: nims@nimesh-radia.comAlso available to watch on YouTube.If this episode resonates, please like, comment, and follow the podcast.This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podtrac - https://analytics.podtrac.com/privacy-policy-gdrp

What if the thing you are waiting for is actually waiting for you to move?In this episode of Spiritual Journey – Path to Awakening, Nimesh Radia and Stacey Brown sit together in an honest conversation about aligned action, self-trust, procrastination, fear and the courage it takes to stop waiting for the perfect moment.This episode is for the part of you that may be waiting for clarity, waiting for confidence, waiting for the right timing, waiting for the fear to disappear, or waiting for the universe to give you a bigger sign.But what if the sign is the nudge you already feel?So often, we want the full path before we take the first step. We want the end result, the guarantee, the perfect plan and the certainty that whatever we do next will be the right thing. But the spiritual journey does not always work that way.Sometimes the breakthrough comes after the step.Sometimes the next doorway opens because you moved.Sometimes the universe is waiting for you to meet it partway.In this episode, Nimesh and Stacey explore why waiting can sometimes become avoidance, why fear often hides underneath procrastination, and why one small aligned action can create a ripple effect you cannot yet see. Stacey shares how stepping outside of her comfort zone changed the direction of her life, and Nimesh reflects on how following small nudges has opened unexpected doors on his own journey.This conversation is not about rushing or forcing.It is about being honest with yourself.It is about asking what you are really waiting for. Permission? Certainty? An invitation? The perfect moment? Or are you waiting because you know that one aligned action could change your world?If you are listening on Monday 29th, Nimesh and Stacey are also holding their Full Moon Webinar today at 9pm UK / 4pm Eastern.

Today I am speaking with Maureen Kilpatrick of Guard Archaeology, a Scottish archaeology firm that has dug sites all over Scotland, but today we are focusing on one site called Guardbridge, in Fife, where the timespan the finds ranged from is astounding: from the Stone Age to the 13th century. Several finds were food-related.The site is amazing – there's an Iron Age fort, there are field demarcations, evidence of food and how it was processed and cooked, as well as lots of evidence of the community moving from a nomadic hunter-gatherer lifestyle to a settled farming one.We talk about the material objects found on site, such as saddle querns, axes and ploughing tools, food remains like emmer wheat, barley, cockles and the indestructible hazelnut, non-slip pottery and the surprisingly late appearance of oats, amongst many other things.Those listening to the secret podcast get some bonus material where we discuss whether modern agriculture with its mechanised ploughs is a help or a hindrance to archaeologists these days.Read the full report: ARO61: Guardbridge, Fife: A multi-period settlement with a multi-vallate fortFollow Guard Archaeology in X/Twitter @GUARD_ArchaeolSeason 10 of the podcast is sponsored by Netherton Foundry, makers of high-quality kitchen and outdoor cookware.

David Hewitt is one of the first guests we've had who's led teams across the world - China, Europe, Asia, and North America. This gives David a completely different perspective than many of us would have. One of the starkest differences is how people view work.In China, people didn't mind hustling because it got them to a goal. In Europe, work hours are strict and asking someone to stay late is basically a non-starter. Very different perspectives.One thing David shared with us is that you have to learn that people have different definitions of winning. As a leader, you need to be clear about what that looks like, share it, and hold people to that goal.We discussed whether working from home actually kills innovation and if you can replicate team collaboration the way it would in an office. But on the flip side, many people are more productive working from home. Maybe a hybrid situation is the best option.The real question is what your business actually needs to win and how to manage a workforce that isn't backing down on wanting autonomy and flexibility through working from home.What matters most is being intentional about it. Define what winning means, show people how their work connects to that, and celebrate when you hit it. That works whether people are in an office or remote.Highlights:Ideas flow differently when teams are in the office versus working remote.Taking on a challenge is different than being in over your head.Regularly check in with your team on goals and hold each person accountable.Move away from tenure and focus on results the next generation won't wait 20 years for a promotion.Make sure to subscribe to Blue Collar BS.

Grief changes you.Sometimes it arrives through the loss of a loved one. Sometimes it comes through trauma, illness, heartbreak, or the quiet loss of the person you once were.In this deeply heartfelt conversation, I sit down with spiritual mentor, Akashic Record reader, hypnotherapist and author Sangeeta Dewan to explore a journey that is both heartbreaking and incredibly inspiring.Sangeeta shares how childhood illness, bullying and years of believing she wasn't enough shaped her early life, before taking us through one of the greatest challenges anyone can face — caring for her husband Mahesh after he was diagnosed with multiple brain tumours during the pandemic.Rather than allowing grief to define her, Sangeeta chose to let it transform her.Together we explore how surrender became her greatest teacher, why self-love is essential during life's darkest moments, the power of spiritual practices when everything feels uncertain, and how healing doesn't mean forgetting — it means learning how to carry love forward.We also talk about her beautiful new book, Hope Beyond Grief: Surviving the Unthinkable, written to remind anyone experiencing loss that hope is never truly gone.Whether you're navigating grief, supporting someone you love, or simply moving through a season of change, this conversation offers compassion, wisdom and the gentle reminder that healing is always possible.Key Themes
What if the greatest healing isn't found in fixing yourself?What if the breakthrough you've been searching for comes from accepting that you were never broken in the first place?In this powerful conversation, Stacey and I explore one of the deepest beliefs many of us carry on the spiritual journey: the belief that there is something wrong with us that needs fixing.As we move through a period of intense change, endings, new beginnings, and shifting soul contracts, many people are questioning themselves, their relationships, and their purpose. We discuss the difference between healing and fixing, the role of the ego, why so many people feel disconnected from themselves, and how self-acceptance can become one of the most transformational acts of all.Together we explore self-love, intuition, community, soul contracts, relationships, and the importance of holding space for ourselves and others during challenging times.This episode is a reminder that your soul has never viewed you as broken.Perhaps the healing begins when you stop trying to fix yourself and start learning to love yourself exactly as you are.Key Themes

When uncertainty hits whether it's weather, natural disasters, or the unexpected how you respond reveals your leadership. We talk about what separates leaders who have plans from leaders who are making it up as they go.The difference between chaos and calm isn't luck. It's preparation. It's knowing what matters when everything else is falling apart. It's writing down who does what, what gets protected, and what the actual priorities are. Most leaders skip this step until it's too late.There's also a shift happening in what employees expect from their leaders when crisis hits. The old mindset was sacrifice everything for the business. The new mindset is having a plan that doesn't require that choice. Both matter and good leaders figure out how to do both.The real question isn't whether something will go wrong. It's whether you'll be ready when it does. And readiness starts with thinking it through now, before the pressure is on.The real question isn't whether something will go wrong. It's whether you'll be ready when it does.

What if the healing you've been searching for isn't found by doing more, but by listening more deeply to the nudges already guiding you?In this fascinating conversation, I sit down with Anya Halama, holistic mentor, Akashic Records practitioner, and ayahuasca retreat facilitator, to explore her incredible journey from chronic illness, anxiety, depression, and burnout to a life devoted to healing, spiritual growth, and transformation.Anya shares how a powerful inner nudge led her to leave her life in Chicago behind, travel the world, and eventually find herself deep in the Colombian jungle working with plant medicine and guiding others through their own healing journeys.Together we explore the role of intuition, spiritual guidance, ancestral healing, generational trauma, and the profound lessons that can emerge when we stop resisting change and start trusting the unknown.Whether you're curious about ayahuasca, interested in deep healing, or simply learning to trust your own inner guidance, this episode offers wisdom, perspective, and practical insights to support your journey.Key Themes✨ Trusting the nudges that change your life✨ Healing ancestral and generational patterns✨ Ayahuasca as a tool for self-discovery and transformation✨ Connecting with spirit guides and intuition✨ The importance of preparation, integration, and self-responsibilityTakeaways
In this week's episode I am speaking with Adam Crymble and Rachel Rich about a really exciting piece of research looking at the complexities of feeding the households of King George III and his eldest son George who was Prince Regent whilst George III suffered from his “madness”, and eventually succeeded him as George IV. The focus of the research is the ledgers that still exist, listing the ingredients ordered, foods that were prepared and the people who ate them. Over 40,000 dishes were counted.They have analysed the ledgers from two royal palaces – George III's Kew Palace and the Prince Regent's Carlton House – with two other food historians Sarah Fox and Lisa Smith, and assimilated them to produce a book called The King's Dinner: Family, nation, and identity on the British table, 1760-1820, which was published by UCL Press on 11 June 2026. The book is available from wherever you buy your books, but it is also available open access as a free PDF. So is the data they used in their analysis.We talk about the differing characters of the two Georges and how these were expressed in the foods they ate, Georgian food identity, the concept of oeconomy, the exotic food cultures NOT appearing on royal dinner tables, French cuisine and famous French chef Careme's tenure in the Prince Regent's kitchens, as well as their fruit and veg suppliers, one of whom was called Savage Bear, amongst many other thingsThose listening to the secret podcast get some bonus material where we discuss the upper servant's fancy foods, the huge amounts of meat consumed, and the politics of wine.The King's Dinner: Family, nation, and identity on the British table, 1760-1820(open access)3000 dishes on a Georgian tableAdam's bio on the UCL websiteFollow Adam on social media: @adamcrymble.bsky.social (Bluesky); @dradamcrymble (Insta)Rachel's bio on Leeds Beckett University websiteFollow Rachel Rich on social media: @drrachelrich (Insta)Season 10 of the podcast is sponsored by Netherton Foundry, makers of high-quality kitchen and outdoor cookware.

Robotics and connected systems are changing how farming and other outdoor activities get done.You'll Learn:Outdoor automation requires AI systems that can operate with constant uncertainty.Leaders should rethink long-held operating models as AI and robotics reshape how physical work gets done.The most valuable AI systems may be the ones that simplify complexity rather than add more dashboards.Learn More:David Potere: https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidpotere/What 1,000 Farmers Told Us About Tech Adoption: https://on.bcg.com/4euA76VClimate-Smart Agriculture Needs a Better Yardstick: https://on.bcg.com/4ejIfH6David on the Climate Rising Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/david-potere-at-bcg-x-using-ai-satellites-in-climate/id1482781075?i=1000767537614AI Foundation Model for Extreme Weather: https://on.bcg.com/4vKiwyzChapters00:00 – How Will AI Impact Outdoor Industries?04:26 –The Challenges of Taking Tech Outside06:11– What Would a Farm That Thinks for Itself Look Like?08:27 – Is AI Rescuing Agriculture?10:55– Will AI Only Help Big Farms?14:39 – Who Owns the Data?16:16 – What Can Leaders Learn from the AI Outdoors?18:51 – Next Steps to Truly Benefit from AIThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podtrac - https://analytics.podtrac.com/privacy-policy-gdrp

Have you ever felt like part of you is already living in the next chapter while another part is desperately trying to hold on to the old one?Right now, I see so many people feeling unsettled, disconnected, emotional, uncertain, and unsure of what comes next. The interesting thing is that nothing may be wrong.What if the discomfort you're feeling is because your soul has already moved on, but your human self is still trying to catch up?In this deeply personal episode, I explore the disconnect between the human self and the soul during times of rapid change and transformation. We dive into intuition, identity shifts, letting go of control, trusting the unknown, navigating the void between endings and beginnings, and why this current phase may be preparing you for something far greater than you can currently see.If life feels different right now, if you're questioning who you are, where you're going, or why things no longer feel the same, this conversation is for you.Your soul already knows.The question is whether your human self is ready to trust it.Key Themes✨ The disconnect between the human self and the soul✨ Releasing identities, expectations and control✨ Trusting intuition during uncertain times✨ Navigating the void between endings and beginnings✨ Self-trust as the bridge to your next chapterTakeaways
The Columbia Workshop || The Fall of the City | April 11, 1937Columbia Workshop, pioneered all kinds of special sound effects and other dramatic techniques. In 1937 it put on a poetic drama by Archibald MacLeish called The Fall of the City, featuring a 22-year-old actor with an unforgettably expressive voice. The play was a sensation, which helped point the way to what radio could achieve. It also made the actor, Orson Welles, an overnight star.Adelaide Klein as Dead WomanCarleton Young as 1st MessengerBurgess Meredith as OratorDwight Weist as 2nd MessengerEdgar Stehli as PriestWilliam Pringle as GeneralGuy Repp, Brandon Peters, Karl Swenson, Dan Davies, and Kenneth Delmar as Antiphonal Chorus(above from Wikipedia): : : : :You can donate to show your support for my podcast and the time I put into creating and posting every week.

Let's welcome Pat Riley onto the show this week. As an entrepreneur for years, Pat made a big pivot into working for someone else. That shift gives him a unique view from both the owner's and employee's side.This conversation challenged stereotypes we all hear Gen Z isn't lazy, Boomers aren't just selfish stock watchers, and bringing decades of experience into a new role doesn't mean you're stuck in old ways.Pat spent years owning and selling multiple businesses before transitioning into a sales management role. That transition from being the boss to having a boss required humility and finding leadership with values that aligned with his. He found both at Earth Development, bringing experience in building and leading organizations to his new position.We spend too much time labeling generations instead of recognizing what each one brings to the table.Pat's team is young and motivated by something bigger than just money. They understand the company's mission of keeping people safe in the winter. They care about purpose and community.Pat also talks about how he brought his AI expertise to transform a stagnant CRM system by simply asking technology how to solve problems differently.The college debt crisis came up when Pat shared his daughter's story about how her ideal college tuition just didn't make sense at over $200,000. The math didn't work. She ended up choosing a college closer to home which sacrificed experience but saved a lot of money in the future.Major employers are also starting to shift their requirements for four-year degrees. They've realized that many positions don't actually need one.Highlights:Young workers care more about purpose and being part of something bigger than just money.Pat's transition from business owner to employee required humility and finding values-aligned leadership.College debt has reached the point where $268,000 for a teaching degree makes zero financial sense.Major employers now accept two-year degrees because they've realized the traditional four-year degree isn't necessary for many positions.AI tools can transform stagnant systems when you simply ask how to solve problems differently.Do you want more honest conversations about what's actually happening in business and the workforce?

Todd Miller of Isaiah Industries and co-host Ethan Young welcome Muhammad Faiz of Rise Roofers and host of the Roofing Millionaires podcast to discuss how he entered the roofing industry from Pakistan, his shift from ads and lead generation to helping roofers build emotionally resonant brands, and why many contractors lack marketing knowledge and a clear definition of growth.Faiz explains how purpose can serve as a decision filter amid overwhelming tech and platform choices, and how positioning helps contractors avoid competing solely on the lowest price. He shares why he started Roofing Millionaires as a non-promotional platform for veteran insights, highlights his favorite episodes, and describes client outcomes centered on clarity, fulfillment, and premium perception. In rapid-fire questions, he discusses a childhood English lesson, favorite foods, his view that roofing will return to relationship basics, and how to connect with him.Timestamps00:00 Welcome and Co-Host Intro00:41 Meet Muhammad Faiz02:16 Why Roofing Marketing04:19 From Pakistan to Freelance05:46 Rise Roofers Branding Focus09:27 Purpose Driven Growth11:09 Tech Noise and Clarity15:39 Positioning Beyond Price17:34 Why Start the Podcast24:34 Best Episodes to Start26:50 Client Transformations32:52 Faiz Personal Purpose35:45 How to Work Together38:03 Define Your Growth40:52 Rapid Fire Questions46:39 Connect and ClosingConnect with Muhammad OnlineFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/muhammadfaiz99For more Construction Disruption, listen on Apple Podcasts or YouTubeConnect with us on Facebook, Instagram, or LinkedInThis episode was produced by Isaiah Industries, Inc.Construction Disruption was recently featured in this 15 Best Podcasts for Contractors list!This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podtrac - https://analytics.podtrac.com/privacy-policy-gdrp
What if the thing keeping you stuck isn't the decision?What if it's the endless thinking about the decision?In this powerful and honest conversation, Stacey and I explore one of the biggest challenges on the spiritual path: learning to trust your intuition while navigating the noise of fear, doubt, overthinking, and uncertainty.Many of us are searching for signs, waiting for certainty, or looking outside ourselves for answers. Yet the guidance we seek is often already within us. The challenge is learning how to hear it.We explore the difference between intuition and overthinking, why your ego can feel louder than your inner knowing, how your body becomes a powerful guidance system, and why trusting the next step is often more important than knowing the entire journey.If you've been sitting on a decision, delaying action, questioning yourself, or waiting for one more sign, this conversation may be exactly what you need right now.The shift happening on the planet is asking us to trust ourselves more deeply than ever before.✨ Key Themes

If you're secretly wondering what your cross-dressing means about you — or terrified what would happen if your partner fully knew — this episode is for you.Many men who cross-dress struggle with shame, confusion, secrecy, and questions about identity. And hiding it for too long can create much bigger relationship problems than the dressing itself.In this episode of Sex for Couples, certified sex therapist and intimacy coach Heather Shannon breaks down the psychology of cross-dressing, why it can feel emotionally and sexually powerful, and how couples can navigate it honestly inside a committed relationship.You'll learn the difference between cross-dressing, kink, drag, and gender identity — plus why secrecy, shame, and emotional suppression often become part of the cycle.Heather also explores feminization, sissification, submissive dynamics, internal family systems (IFS), and the emotional relief many people experience when they're finally allowed to express hidden parts of themselves.Whether you're exploring this personally or trying to understand your partner better, this episode offers a compassionate, nuanced perspective without shame or judgment.In This Episode:The difference between cross-dressing and being transgenderWhy cross-dressing can feel emotionally relieving or sexually excitingThe psychology behind feminization and sissification kinksHow masculinity pressures contribute to secrecy and shameWhy many people use cross-dressing as emotional escape or self-expressionThe connection between cross-dressing and submissive dynamicsHow Internal Family Systems (IFS) explains different “parts” of ourselvesWhat healthy honesty and integration can look like in long-term relationshipsHow secrecy around kinks can damage trust and intimacyQuestions to ask yourself if you're exploring gender identityIf this episode helped you better understand yourself, your partner, or your relationship dynamic, follow Sex for Couples for honest conversations about intimacy, desire, emotional connection, and sexual psychology.Take My Free Relationship & Intimacy Quiz: https://TheBetterBedroom.comInterested in coaching with Heather?
