Podcasts about post covid

For more than a year, alcohol sales in the on-premise (restaurants, bars, stadiums, and hotels) have outperformed sales in the off-premise (grocery, convenience, and liquor stores). On the surface, this trend contradicts many of our explanations for the industry's struggles. If people are broke, why are they spending money in the channel where alcohol costs the most? If people are spending more time alone, why are they drinking in venues driven by socialization? A mystery this big requires more intellectual firepower than RaboResearch alone can provide. So we invited two PhDs and an economist on the show to help us figure it out. Our guests: Bart Watson, President & CEO, Brewers Association Andrew Heritage, Chief Economist, Beer Institute Lester Jones, Chief Economist, National Beer Wholesalers Association Relevant time stamps:  Why are on-premise sales outperforming off-premise sales? Round 1: 7:42 – The K-shaped economy is widening the gap between on-premise and off-premise sales: Middle/lower-income consumers feel squeezed and cut back more during at-home (off-premise) occasions, while protecting meaningful social occasions (on-premise). Higher-income consumers continue spending, widening the gap. 16:04 – Rising wealth is leading to an overall increase in on-premise spending: The US is getting richer over time; historically that drives more spending "away from home." As incomes rise, consumers shift toward experiences like bars/restaurants. 24:01 – Post-Covid socialization is normalizing: People want to reconnect after Covid. Younger consumers especially over-index in out-of-home alcohol spend, supporting on-premise demand through social experiences. 32:54 – Health and wellness trends are driving people to cut back on banal, at-home occasions: Consumers drink less overall, especially at home, but keep social drinking occasions. Alcohol becomes more "occasion-based," benefiting on-premise while hurting off-premise volumes. 42:02 – Inflation in the on-premise is massively outpacing off-premise: On-premise prices are rising faster than off-premise. Even if behavior doesn't change much, higher pricing inflates on-premise performance in dollar terms. Round 2:  45:18 – Travel and experiences are rebounding: Increased travel drives on-premise consumption (restaurants, bars, concessions). Social and vacation contexts strengthen on-premise relative to at-home drinking. 47:24 – The on-premise has more innovation, driving increases in productivity: Restaurants and bars have innovated (tech, formats, efficiency) post-Covid, improving service and experience. Better venues lead to stronger performance versus relatively static off-premise retail. 52:10 – There are more women in the workforce: More women in the workforce = more income + stronger social consumption patterns. Women may drink less, but have more money to spend per serving, suggesting they may be a driver of on-premise strength. 57:48 – Staying at home is more stimulating than it used to be: Consumers don't have to drink because they're bored. Competing activities (cannabis, online gaming, etc.) replace at-home drinking occasions – especially for younger males – more than on-premise drinking occasions. 1:03:02 – Several final factors may also be contributing to the on-premise performance gap: With the last pick of the draft, Bourcard mops up some of the final potential factors behind the on-premise performance gap, including young adults living with their parents, the decline of underage drinking, and GLP-1 drugs reducing the desire for casual drinking while leaving social occasions intact.

Ref.: Andreas Groß, Heilpraktiker für traditionelle europäische NaturmedizinRef.: Sylvia Groß, Hildegard-Expertin Eine Corona-Infektion kann eine leichten Schnupfen auslösen, aber auch hohes Fieber mit Gliederschmerzen und schwerer Erschöpfung. Meisten verschwinden die Symptome nach spätestens einigen Wochen wieder. Doch manche Patienten haben auch Monate oder sogar Jahre später noch mit chronischer Müdigkeit, geringer Belastbarkeit und Muskelschmerzen zu tun. Dann spricht man von Post COVID. Betroffene sind oft berufsunfähig und haben Mühe, den Alltag zu meistern. Die Medizin hat auf Post COVID - wie auch auf das ähnlich gelagerte Post VAC-Syndrom nach einer COVID-19-Impfung - bis jetzt nur wenige Antworten. Der Heilpraktiker Andreas Groß und seine Ehefrau, die Expertin für Hildegard-Heilkunde Sylvia Groß, erfahren in ihrer Praxis, dass die Naturheilkunde gerade bei solchen chronischen Verläufen die Symptome lindern oder sogar heilen kann. In der Lebenshilfe schildern sie uns, was bei Post COVID und beim Post VAC-Syndrom im Körper passiert, und wie natürliche Heilmittel die Regeneration unterstützen können.

Ian Turner has spent over two decades as a Chief People Officer watching the same slow collision happen inside organisations: brilliant performers get promoted into leadership roles, never get developed as leaders, and quietly become — in Ian's phrase — "overpaid doers." This episode asks what it actually takes to be a human-centric business leader, why that capability is in shorter supply than it should be, and what the real commercial cost is when organisations let it drift.The conversation lands on a deceptively simple idea: sustainable performance comes from leaders who hold the commercial and the human in the same hand at the same time — not alternating between them, but integrating both as a single discipline. Ian reframes what that looks like in practice, from getting out of your furrow in the carpet to understanding that every tech transformation is actually a people transformation with a tech element.Key Themes & TakeawaysLeaders who succeed long-term care passionately about two things simultaneously: delivering results and the people delivering them — treating these as one system, not a trade-off.Organisations have created a generation of "overpaid doers" — people promoted for technical excellence who were never equipped, trained, or expected to actually lead.The "furrow in the carpet" is a powerful diagnostic: if your daily movement through an organisation never changes, your leadership reach probably doesn't either.Attrition, stagnation, and cultural echo chambers are not people problems — they're the commercial consequences of ignoring the human side of performance.Post-COVID, companies that genuinely cared about their people maintained flexible, human-aware cultures; those that did it out of necessity are now facing the cultural bill.The most powerful thing a leader can offer isn't advice — it's belief. Coaching someone to their own solution builds both the answer and the person.Every tech transformation is a people transformation with a tech element — and leaders who frame it the other way around will keep hitting the same wall.Three Reasons to ListenListen if your organisation keeps hitting numbers in the short term but quietly haemorrhaging your best people — Ian names exactly why, and it's not what most senior leaders want to hear.Listen if you've ever caught yourself thinking that leadership is "on the side of the desk" — this conversation will reframe that as a strategic and commercial error, not just a personal development gap.Listen if you're trying to make the case internally that human-centric leadership isn't soft — Ian builds the business argument clearly, without ever making it fluffy.Notable Quotes"They don't become leaders because they're recruited into those more senior roles because they've been a great salesperson, a great product person, a great marketer — and they've not been recruited because they show true leadership traits." — Ian Turner"Every transformation is a people transformation with a tech element. It's not a tech transformation with a people element." — Ian Turner"One of the most powerful things you can offer another person isn't advice — it's belief." — Ian Turner (referencing Jenny Rogers, Coaching Skills)Ian's bioIan Turner, a Chief People Officer, talent strategist and leadership coach with over two decades of experience shaping people and culture across some of the UK's most recognised organisations. From leading transformation programmes and building high-performing teams to championing social mobility and developing future talent, Ian has built a reputation for combining commercial acumen with a genuinely human approach to leadership. He's passionate about helping people realise their potential and creating workplaces where both individuals and organisations can thrive.

Every leader knows how to have conversations. Far fewer know how to lead them. In this episode, Bart Egnal speaks with Sandra Bekas, Senior Learning and Development Manager at The Humphrey Group, about why conversations have become one of the most important leadership skills in today's workplace and how THG helps leaders prepare for and excel in these critical communication moments. Drawing on her background in language, rhetoric, cognitive science, and leadership development, Sandra shares insights into why conversations are where influence happens and why those moments have become more complex than ever. Sandra explains why conversations have become more frequent, more candid, and often more challenging as employees increasingly expect leaders to be more present, more transparent, and more accessible than ever before. She discusses the difference between routine and high-stakes conversations, why framing a conversation is critical to creating clarity and trust, and how leaders can guide discussions without becoming overly directive. The conversation also explores practical tools from The Humphrey Group's Art of Conversation program, including the ARC framework (Acknowledge, Refocus, Catalyze) for getting derailed conversations back on track. Whether you're navigating everyday discussions or pivotal leadership moments, this episode offers practical tools for communicating with greater confidence, clarity, and influence. Show Notes: 00:58 Introducing Sandra Bekas 01:41 Introducing the topic of conversations 02:37 What led you to this role? 02:50 Love of language 03:14 Thinking and language and emotion and how that shapes reality 03:37 Moving to Japan 04:14 Japanese different language structure 04:22 Maybe trim/cut this section? 05:52 Moved back to Canada - Canadian publishing 06:15 Majority of career in instructional design... 06:35 Joining HG 07:26 How have conversations reached this inflection point? 08:00 Post-COVID interactions 08:24 In-person and digital accessibility 09:10 Leadership conversations are now more fraught 10:18 COVID level-set us 10:45 Insert: the three A's 12:47 What is the new THG program? 13:14 The Art of Conversation program 13:25 The ability to dynamically influence others 13:49 Routine conversations vs. high-stakes conversations 14:15 Corporate conversations where you want to move the needle 14:43 How you present in the moment 15:01 How to exert your influence 15:42 What is framing and why is it important? 16:01 What is the purpose of this conversation? 16:33 Example: giving a poor performance review 17:44 Example: letting down people who didn't get the promotion 20:01 Summarizing 20:48 Introducing clarity in a meeting 21:22 Bart presents a challenging example of a situation that is hard to summarize 23:36 Getting derailed conversations back on track 24:56 A.R.C. 26:06 A: acknowledge 26:17 R: refocus 26:28 C: catalyzing question 30:16 You cannot script these moments 31:04 You can still be authentic when using these tools! 32:26 Where can people find out more?

Ivan Harbour, Senior Design Director at RSHP, joins Jason de Sousa to talk city-making, from working alongside Lord Richard Rogers on the Lloyd's Building to master planning Sydney's Barangaroo. They cover why great masterplanning starts at the city scale, the biggest mistakes governments and developers make, and why public space should be civic infrastructure, not leftover land. Ivan reflects on Barangaroo's legacy, working with government on major projects, how office design has shifted since COVID, what investors want from architects now, and whether ESG is truly built into design briefs. They close on AI, where it helps, where it falls short, and what's at risk for the next generation of architects. A must-watch for anyone in property, design, or architecture.

Welkom luisterende artsen en apothekers bij deze nieuwe podcast serie ‘Farma onder de loep', een samenwerking tussen HuisartsPodcast en het Geneesmiddelen Bulletin (GeBu)! In deze serie geven we je praktische én onafhankelijke informatie over geneesmiddelen & medische hulpmiddelen voor de dagelijkse praktijk. Aflevering 3: Lidocaïne bij post-covid – veel aandacht, onvoldoende bewijs In deze aflevering gaan huisarts Tessa Dijksman en co-host Annet Sollie (huisarts, informaticus en redacteur bij het GeBu) in gesprek met Anske van der Bom, hoogleraar Klinische Epidemiologie bij het LUMC en projectleider van het Post Covid Netwerk Nederland (PCNN). Aanleiding voor dit gesprek is een veelbesproken studie naar subcutane injecties met lidocaïne-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrine bij patiënten met post-covid. De resultaten kregen veel aandacht in de media en boden hoop voor een patiëntengroep die vaak ernstig beperkt wordt door langdurige klachten zoals vermoeidheid, cognitieve problemen, pijn en inspanningsintolerantie. Maar hoe sterk is het wetenschappelijke bewijs eigenlijk? Wat was de gedachte achter het gebruik van lidocaïne? Hoe was het onderzoek opgezet en welke methodologische tekortkomingen zijn er? We bespreken onder meer de opvallende onderzoeksopzet, de bijwerkingen, mogelijke belangenverstrengeling en de reden waarom het oorspronkelijke artikel uiteindelijk werd ingetrokken . Daarnaast staan we stil bij een belangrijke vraag voor de dagelijkse praktijk: hoe begeleiden we patiënten met post-covid, voor wie nog maar weinig bewezen effectieve behandelingen beschikbaar zijn? En hoe gaan we om met de begrijpelijke wens van patiënten om nieuwe, soms experimentele behandelingen uit te proberen? Een aflevering voor huisartsen, apothekers en andere zorgprofessionals die op zoek zijn naar een onafhankelijke en kritische beoordeling van het bewijs achter medische claims rond post-covid.

Healthcare is all about who is going to pay for it. Because if you can't afford to go to the doctor, you probably won't until it becomes an emergency – which isn't good for the patient or the system. This is a particular problem in rural Tennessee. When there's a hiccup in the system, rural systems may shutter.Healthcare Hollow is a WPLN series that takes an in-depth look at the crisis of rural hospital closings.In this episode, we're focused on who is going to pay for care in rural Tennessee. Those residents are more likely to rely on TennCare (the state's version of federal Medicaid). Post-COVID policy changes have resulted in more people losing TennCare coverage. At the same time, fewer people are keeping insurance under the Affordable Care Act because of the expense.This episode is part of our Healthcare Hollow series, made possible, in part, by the NIHCM Foundation.GuestsGordon Bonnyman, staff attorney & co-founder, Tennessee Justice CenterJackie Shrago, ACA marketplace volunteer navigatorSarah Boden, independent healthcare journalist with KFFKelly Insana, vice president of marketing & communications, Tennessee Hospital Association

At HIMSS26, Legacy Data Access CEO Shawn Fichter joined us to talk about why health systems should transition from holding on to legacy applications to a more strategic approach that makes access to their historical data easier and more purposeful.Post-COVID cost pressures and a wave of point solutions left many organizations drowning in siloed data. Fichter argues the problem runs deeper than technology choices. When left unmanaged, legacy applications quietly become security liabilities and information dead-ends. M&A activity only compounds the chaos by generating duplicate and orphaned systems with no clear need for access.The antidote, he suggests, is a proactive archival strategy built around use cases rather than applications. That means engaging clinicians, HIM managers, finance and HR leaders, and research teams to understand how they actually need to access information, and then designing a governance approach that balances ease of use with a defensible risk profile. Getting that balance right also has a direct payoff: optimized data management reduces the overhead required for routine reporting and release-of-information work.Learn more about Legacy Data Access: https://www.legacydataaccess.com/Healthcare IT Community: https://www.healthcareittoday.com/

Warum ist die Diagnose von postinfektiösen Erkrankungen bei Kindern so schwierig? Eine Sonderfolge mit Dr. Daniel Vilser.Es ist schwer zu sagen, wie viele Kinder und Jugendliche in Deutschland an postinfektiösen Erkrankungen leiden - ausgelöst durch verschiedene Erreger, nicht nur durch Corona. Schätzungen reichen von 10.000 bis 100.000 Fällen. Das Krankheitsbild ist divers, deshalb sind Diagnose und Therapie nach wie vor schwierig. Obwohl es für Kinder neuerdings ein bundesweites Versorgungsnetzwerk gibt, klagen betroffene Familien weiter über Wartezeiten und Unkenntnis im Gesundheitssystem, und es mangelt an großen Studien. Was weiß man mittlerweile über die Krankheitsmechanismen? Darüber spricht "Synapsen"-Host Korinna Hennig in dieser Sonderfolge mit Dr. Daniel Vilser, der sich während der Pandemie als einer der ersten mit Long Covid bei Kindern beschäftigt hat. Heute ist er Chefarzt der Klinik für Kinder- und Jugendmedizin am AMEOS-Klinikum in Neuburg und leitet dort eine Ambulanz für Betroffene.

What sustains faith when prayer feels flat and God seems distant—and there's no clear tragedy to explain it? Anglican priest and former New York Times columnist Tish Harrison Warren joins Macie Bridge to talk about weariness, burnout, and the quiet middle stretches of a long spiritual life. Drawing on her new book What Grows in Weary Lands, she turns to the Desert Fathers and Mothers for a resilience that resists both flaming out and numbing out. "It felt like the call had dropped, like the line had gone dead." In this episode with Macie Bridge, Warren reflects on her own season of spiritual aridity and the ancient counsel to stay in your cell rather than escape. Together they discuss the difference between burnout and weariness, acedia and the noonday demon, perseverance, silence as countercultural practice, and the world as a womb. They explore why escape rarely heals and what it means to trust the slow work of God. Episode Highlights "It felt like the call had dropped, like the line had gone dead." "I do not think vitamin D will solve what I'm talking about." "We're not having to hold our life together in the midst of weariness with will power and duct tape." "We kind of bring Times Square with us wherever we go now." "God doesn't need me to be impressive or achieving." About Tish Harrison Warren Tish Harrison Warren is a writer and an Anglican priest. She is the author of Liturgy of the Ordinary, named Christianity Today's 2018 Book of the Year, and Prayer in the Night, which won both Christianity Today's 2022 Book of the Year and the 2022 ECPA Christian Book of the Year. She formerly wrote a weekly newsletter for The New York Times on faith in public and private life and was a columnist for Christianity Today; her essays have appeared in Comment, The Point, and Religion News Service.

"The Doctor Is Not Always Right"  Hein Van Eck is a healthcare actuary by training, a breed of thinker who sits at the intersection of data, ethics, and human behavior. He started in insurance in South Africa, was handed his career-defining job after answering a single ethical question correctly, and has spent the last 20 years on the provider side watching an industry transform in real time. He moved to Dubai in 2014 and hasn't stood still since.  As CEO of Mediclinic Middle East, Hein oversees six hospitals, 27 clinics, 4,000 babies born annually, and a workforce of doctors recruited from around the world not by headhunters, but by hospital directors who fly to the UK in winter specifically to sit across a candidate and ask: would I feel comfortable if this person treated my family?  That detail tells you everything about how he leads.  This conversation goes places most healthcare interviews don't. Hein talks honestly about the agency problem at the heart of modern medicine doctor has the knowledge, patient consumes, insurer pays and what happens when that system breaks down.

What if your "normal" thyroid labs aren't telling the full story? In this eye-opening episode of The Girlfriend Doctor Show, Dr. Anna Cabeca sits down with renowned integrative pharmacist and thyroid expert Dr. Izabella Wentz to uncover the powerful connection between gut health, IBS, autoimmune disease, and thyroid dysfunction — especially Hashimoto's. Dr. Wentz shares her deeply personal journey from debilitating IBS, anxiety, fatigue, and Hashimoto's thyroiditis to healing through root-cause medicine. Together, Dr. Anna and Dr. Wentz explore why so many women are told their thyroid labs are "normal" while they continue struggling with weight gain, brain fog, bloating, constipation, inflammation, hormonal shifts, and exhaustion. You'll learn why gut permeability ("leaky gut"), chronic stress, infections, food sensitivities, and microbiome imbalances may be silently driving autoimmune thyroid disease — and the practical steps you can take to begin healing. In this episode, you'll discover: Why thyroid antibodies matter — even when TSH appears "normal" The hidden connection between IBS and Hashimoto's How stress hormones disrupt the gut barrier and immune system Common root causes including parasites, H. pylori, SIBO, mold, and food sensitivities The truth about bloating, constipation, diarrhea, edema, and inflammation Functional medicine testing that may uncover what conventional medicine misses Nutrition, supplements, and gut-healing strategies that can support thyroid recovery If you've ever been told "everything looks fine" while your body says otherwise, this conversation is for you. Listen now and share this episode with someone who needs answers, healing, and hope.   Key Timestamps 00:00 — Why thyroid symptoms are often missed in women 04:30 — Dr. Wentz's personal journey with IBS and Hashimoto's 11:15 — The gut-autoimmune-thyroid connection explained 18:40 — Post-COVID rise in autoimmune conditions and chronic fatigue 24:50 — Functional medicine testing for IBS and thyroid symptoms 33:10 — Stress, cortisol, and "leaky gut" 41:20 — How intestinal permeability triggers autoimmune disease 49:45 — Food sensitivities, bloating, edema, and inflammation 58:30 — Gut-healing protocols and favorite supplements 01:06:20 — Why women are more prone to IBS and Hashimoto's 01:14:00 — The importance of self-advocacy and listening to your body   Memorable Quotes "You may have been told your thyroid is normal, but there's something else going on — and the biggest culprit can be in the gut." — Dr. Anna Cabeca "Don't let people tell you it's all in your head." — Dr. Izabella Wentz "There will often be a disruption of the gut barrier years before an autoimmune diagnosis appears." — Dr. Izabella Wentz "To heal the human, we have to address the gut." — Dr. Anna Cabeca "Stress hormones can unlock the door to intestinal permeability and chronic inflammation." — Dr. Anna Cabeca   Connect With Guest Check out Dr. Izabella's new book: IBS: Finding and Treating the Root Cause of Irritable Bowel Syndrome Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/izabellawentzpharmd/ YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/@ThyroidPharmacist  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ThyroidLifestyle/ Website: https://thyroidpharmacist.com/   Connect With Dr. Anna Website: Dranna.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thegirlfrienddoctor/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thegirlfrienddoctor TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drannacabeca Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thegirlfrienddoctor

This week, Alyssa and Nadia record on a Sunday morning, a podcast first, and quickly abandon their planned topic for a more organic conversation about Gen Z: whether they're really more serious, homebodied, and less “fun” than previous generations.Alyssa shares what she's been hearing from parents: Gen Z drives less, goes out less, drinks less, and spends more time indoors. Nadia pushes back thoughtfully, arguing that the behavior may not be as different as people think. What has changed is what gets posted. Her generation is highly aware of being watched online, managing a persona, and the permanence of digital life. Just because something isn't visible doesn't mean it isn't happening.The conversation becomes more personal when Nadia describes herself as a perfectionist. For her, perfectionism isn't about flawless work. It's about waiting for the “right” conditions until nothing gets started. It's also about disruption, perception, and rarely going against the grain. Alyssa contrasts this with her own motivation: she's more afraid of missing the window than getting it perfect, so she tends to jump in before she feels ready.From there, they explore social media, public identity, and the pressure of growing up with everything documented. College acceptances, LinkedIn wins, and life milestones are not just experienced, they're performed. Alyssa reflects on seeing a colleague post a keynote credit and wondering whether her own silence online had cost her opportunities. Nadia explains that for her, not posting certain things isn't dishonest; it's simply a way of navigating who gets to see what.The episode closes with recommendations. Alyssa shares Yesteryear, a novel about a tradwife influencer whose online identity clashes with her inner life. Nadia adds a guilty pleasure mention of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, then half-retracts it almost immediately.TakeawaysGen Z may not be less social or less fun, but more selective about what they post online.Social media has changed the visibility of behavior, making outside perceptions feel distorted.Perfectionism often shows up as waiting for the “right” conditions, which can delay actionSome people are more motivated by the fear of missing an opportunity than by doing something perfectly.Growing up online turns milestones like college acceptances and job wins into public performances.Being constantly watched shapes what people share, hide, and curate.Influencer culture is a legitimate modern job, but it comes with pressure to stay consistent in public.The most effective online personas often feel authentic, not overly constructed.Post-COVID isolation shaped how Gen Z socializes, matures, and handles pressure.Authenticity is harder to maintain when platforms reward polished, consistent identities.Chapters0:11–1:24 — Sunday Morning Recording: Why Today Feels Different1:24–4:15 — The Gen Z Debate: Do They Actually Go Out Lessor Just Post Less?4:15–7:50 — A Man at a Donut Shop, a Woman Behind theCounter, and What Growing Up Fast Used to Look Like7:50–10:45 — Pressure to Fix the World and the PerceptionThat Gen Z Is Lazy10:45–14:40 — The Perfectionism Conversation: What NadiaActually Means When She Says It14:40–16:20 — Waiting for the Right Time vs. Jumping BeforeYou're Ready16:20–20:00 — Everything Is Online: College Acceptances,LinkedIn Posts, and the Pressure to Perform Every Milestone20:00–22:05 — Alyssa's LinkedIn Wake-Up Call and What SheHasn't Posted22:05–26:30 — Is Being an Influencer a Legitimate Career?The Full Conversation26:30–30:25 — Book and Show Recommendations: Yesteryear, Tradwives, and The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives650.701.7686 (o)650.332.2739 (f)510.673.8712 (m)Sports & Dance Rehab | Pilates | Group ClassesOn the Move Physical Therapy501-D Old County Rd.

There's praise for the 'tight ship' Immigration New Zealand's running. Data released to Newstalk ZB reveals just over 65 thousand visa applications were turned down in 2025, plunging from more than 83 thousand in 2024. The rejection rate last year sat at around 6.3% – while the two years before both sat at 7.3%. Queen City Law Managing Director Marcus Beveridge told Mike Hosking Immigration New Zealand's making efficient decisions to keep the bad guys out. He says they've had computer and personnel issues in the past, but it now seems they've got things humming pretty well. There's also little surprise at the countries making up rejections – India made up almost a third of them, followed by China and Pakistan. Beveridge told Hosking India's seen similar numbers for years, as it's always been considered a high-risk country, but Fiji often sees quite a bad rejection rate as well.

Productivity's taken another hit. Stats NZ data shows a 0.9% decline in multifactor productivity in the year to March, and while labour productivity increased 0.8%, it was a result of hours dropping faster than outputs. Primary industries are doing the heavy lifting, with a 72% increase in goods and services per hour. Forsyth Barr Investment Strategist Zoe Wallis told Mike Hosking that productivity has been a long-standing issue – the current situation is about 50 years in the making, based on the data. We haven't managed to turn the slow-moving ship around, she says, which will take time and a lot of cohesive policy from successive governments.

For the first time on record, experience-based tenants — spas, gyms, wellness studios, entertainment venues — are outpacing traditional goods retailers in leasing shopping center space, with wellness and fitness leading the charge. Joe Pine, Dave Norton, and Aransas Savas unpack what this shift actually means: it is not just a retail story, it is confirmation that the transformation economy Joe predicted more than two decades ago has arrived. The conversation traces the arc from malls to experiential anchors, examines why some brands (Red Bull) rode the wave and others (Nike) missed it, and lands on a provocation for any company still selling goods: if you want to sell products today, sell experiences. If you want to sell even more products, sell transformation. Key Takeaways The bifurcation is accelerating. Post-COVID data from high-end luxury shows goods flattening or declining in price while experiences shot upward. The Economist's October feature on high-net-worth luxury quietly re-labeled "services" as "experiences" in its TikTok follow-up — a small edit that tells the whole story. Experiential venues are the new anchors. The old mall anchor was a department store. The new anchor is an escape room cluster, a bowling alley that is really an entertainment complex, an NHL team's practice facility inside a converted suburban mall. Square footage is shifting toward places people want to spend time, not places they pass through. Goods still sell — but best through the experience. Joe's story about the original Nike Town in Chicago captures the mistake most brands still make: Nike Town had a line out the door and did not charge admission. Over time, goods crept back into the floor space that used to belong to basketball courts and events. Red Bull took the opposite path and became an experience company that sells an energy drink. The trajectories diverged for a reason. Experiences commoditize fast. SoulCycle opened a category; spin studios saturated it within a decade. The same glut is forming in spas and boutique gyms right now. The next move is specialization and bespoke combinations — and beyond that, transformation. Transformation is the durable business model. Experiences are episodic. Transformations are long-term engagements, which makes them long-term revenue. Aransas frames the shift cleanly: not just time well spent, but time well invested. Companies that move from experience provider to journey partner earn a different kind of relationship — and a different kind of margin. Social media is an experience platform. Influencers are in the experience business. Some investors will not touch a product today until the influencer strategy is nailed down. Advertising and packaging are shrinking as a share of how people discover and buy. Memorable Moments Joe's recap of his Monaco keynote at the Forbes Travel Guide Summit, where luxury goods manufacturers showed up because they are all getting into luxury experiences now The Nike Town queue that was not charging admission — and what it foreshadowed about Nike's retreat from flagship experiences Dave on the Utah Mammoth buying a suburban mall and turning most of the square footage into a place fans come to watch practice Aransas on walking out of a spa day carrying products because she had just seen, on her own face, what they actually do The throwaway that lands: "Gosh, we're smart." The Strategic Question for Every Brand If you sell goods, where is your experiential venue — physical or virtual — and what transformation are you actually offering the customer who shows up? The brands that answer this well over the next five years will be the ones occupying the square footage the department stores used to hold.

The living legend David Icke once again appears on the Outer Limits of the Truth. Icke lays out his core thesis that human beings are fragments of an infinite consciousness trapped inside a simulated reality, which he calls the matrix. He argues the true self operates outside this simulation and is constantly trying to reconnect with the entrapped fragment, while a global cult and the non human forces it serves work to block that reunification. According to Icke, this is why the biological body functions as a sophisticated computer running psychological and perceptual programs, and why the elite push so aggressively toward AI human fusion. If artificial intelligence replaces authentic human thought, the dangerous questions (Who am I? Where did I come from? Who runs the world?) never get asked. He frames awakening not as recognizing a political conspiracy, which he considers a shallow layer, but as expanding identity beyond the matrix frequency band so one actually perceives reality from outside the cage. Icke then extends this framework into mass control mechanics and the afterlife. He argues religion, orthodox science, and left versus right politics all function identically: rigid belief systems that fracture the population into compartments so the few can rule the many. He points to COVID as a dry run that woke millions, which then triggered a strategic infiltration of alternative media by voices who redirect attention to politics, Trump, and religion while avoiding the deeper questions. On death, he describes the near death experience tunnel, the light, the elders, and the life review as part of a reincarnation trap, or Wheel of Samsara, engineered to recycle souls back into the simulation through a memory wipe and manufactured guilt. His escape route is simple but demanding: recognize the trap while still embodied, stop fearing judgment from others, and refuse to identify with any of the labels the system hands you. Key Takeaways include • Humans are fragments of infinite consciousness; the true self lives outside the simulation and is actively trying to reconnect. • The body is a biological computer running perceptual and psychological programs, not a purely natural organism in the way people assume. • AI human fusion is the endgame of the control system because merged consciousness stops asking existential questions. • Perception is a frequency. Low states (fear, hatred, depression) lock you inside the matrix band. Higher states (love, peace, expanded identity) move you beyond it. • Religion and orthodox science function as mirror prisons. Both demand rigid belief, both punish heretics, both keep the population compartmentalized. • Divide and rule requires fracturing the population into believers of competing stories. Left versus right is the current master wedge. • Trump, in Icke's view, was always a cult asset tasked with wrecking the old system and installing the AI dystopia, and the right is only now catching up to what the left already felt. • Post COVID, the alternative media was deliberately infiltrated and algorithmically elevated to keep the rabbit hole shallow, stopping inquiry at politics and Israel rather than at who controls both. • Near death experiences follow suspiciously common scripts (tunnel, light, elders, life review, guilt, return) which Icke interprets as a soul recycling mechanism, not a genuine reunion with source. • A memory wipe occurs at incarnation, which is why almost no one remembers previous lives and why the astral feels like a first time experience every single cycle. • Escape is possible: learn the mechanics of the trap while alive, stop identifying with human or religious or political labels, and when you leave the body refuse the tunnel and the elders. • Courage is the precondition for truth telling. Ridicule, bans, and condemnation are standard costs, and taking them personally is itself a program. About David Icke A former professional soccer player and sports broadcaster, David Icke is an English writer and public speaker, best known for his views on what he calls "who and what is really controlling the world." Self-described as the most controversial speaker in the world; he is the author of over 20 books and numerous DVDS. Through his lectures in over 25 countries, Icke has attracted a global following that cuts across the political spectrum. His book, "The Biggest Secret," has been described as "The Rosetta Stone for conspiracy junkies." After being told by a psychic that he was a healer who had been placed on earth for a particular purpose, Icke held a press conference to announce that he was a "Son of the Godhead." Through his writings, Icke has developed a worldview that combines new-age spiritualism with a denunciation of totalitarian trends. He believes that many prominent figures belong to the Babylonian Brotherhood, a secret group of shapeshifting reptilian humanoids that control humanity. Website Link: https://www.davidicke.com ---------------- The Road Map: Escaping the Maze of Madness Kindle Edition David Icke's 1998 book The Biggest Secret was dubbed the Rosetta Stone of conspiracy research for connecting the dots that allowed a much bigger picture to be seen. The Rosetta Stone, discovered in 1799, revealed the language codes that allowed Egyptian hieroglyphics to be understood. Now, The Road Map presents a massive extension and expansion with the benefit of a further three decades of full-time research. The depth and breadth of this book is astonishing as it reveals both the interdimensional panorama of the conspiracy for human control, and how we can break those chains to walk the road to freedom. Ever more people are looking at the Maze of Madness called 'human life' and asking the BIG questions: What is it all about? Who are we? Where are we? Why is the world as it is? BIG questions lead to BIG answers and David Icke has been asking them for much of his life and especially since his gigantic awakening after 1990. The Road Map is the latest instalment in his incredible journey to first expose the Maze and then the way out.

A photographic portrait of Julie Claeys When a global professional services firm decides that employee well-being deserves C-suite ownership — complete with metrics, guardrails, and consequences — it signals a major leap from perks to strategy. To that end, Frank Giampietro serves as the Americas Chief Well-Being Officer at Ernst Young (EY), leading well-being strategy across 12 countries and tens of thousands of employees. His role reflects a deliberate decision by EY to treat well-being as a business imperative — not an HR initiative, not a benefits package, and most certainly not a feel-good campaign. Post-COVID, EY identified a series of operational realities that couldn't be ignored. Client demand accelerated while teams operated in hybrid and remote environments. In many areas, workloads intensified, teams grew leaner, and leaders lost the informal visibility that once helped them detect burnout or disengagement early. At the same time, employee expectations fundamentally shifted. Flexibility, mental health support, and humane leadership became baseline expectations — not differentiators. The risks were clear: attrition, presenteeism, disengagement, and burnout threatened client delivery, institutional knowledge, and long-term growth. Frank explains how EY responded by building systems to identify overload sooner, redefining leadership expectations, and introducing measurable insight through tools like its Vitality Index — combining employee feedback with operational data to give leaders real-time visibility into how their teams are doing. He also addresses the question many organizations struggle with: what does managerial accountability actually look like. What authority does a Chief Well-Being Officer have? How are leaders expected to show up differently? And what happens when even high-performing leaders fall short or even harm their teams' well-being? For leaders who want to move beyond aspiration and embed well-being into the way work truly gets done, this episode offers a concrete, candid and compelling blueprint.

Episode Summary In Episode 226 of the BOSS Business of Surgery Series, Dr. Amy Vertrees, general surgeon, certified coach, and founder of the series, is joined by healthcare attorney Amanda Hill to discuss one of the most important — and misunderstood — career decisions physicians face: how to strategically navigate job transitions. This webinar-style episode focuses on empowerment, professional autonomy, and protecting physicians from costly mistakes when considering leaving a job. Rather than encouraging resignation, the conversation teaches physicians how to reclaim agency, understand their contracts, and make career decisions from strength rather than desperation. Dr. Vertrees shares her personal journey from employed surgeon dissatisfaction to building a thriving private practice, while Amanda Hill provides legal insight gained from 23 years representing physicians across healthcare systems. Together, they introduce a structured framework for evaluating career dissatisfaction, avoiding impulsive decisions, and preparing for either transforming a current job or exiting strategically. Meet the Speakers Dr. Amy Vertrees General surgeon practicing at a nonprofit community hospital in Tennessee U.S. Army veteran with 17 years of service and three combat deployments Certified professional coach Founder of the BOSS Business of Surgery Series (est. 2015) Transitioned from employed practice to founding her own private surgical practice Mission: Help physicians create freedom, autonomy, and professional fulfillment. Amanda Hill, JD Healthcare attorney based in Austin, Texas 23+ years representing physicians Experience with: Veterans Affairs system Large health systems Federally Qualified Health Centers Founder of Guard My Practice, focused on proactive physician protection Key Insight: Most physicians seek legal help only after problems occur — when options are limited and expensive. Key Topics Covered 1. The Changing Healthcare Landscape The speakers discuss the dramatic cultural shift physicians have experienced: Post-COVID decline in physician morale Increased administrative pressure Growing disrespect toward physicians Approximately 10% of physicians leaving medicine, increasing workload for those remaining Result: Many doctors feel trapped, exhausted, and unsure of their options. 2. The Truth About Jobs and Fulfillment Dr. Vertrees introduces a powerful mindset framework: Jobs provide: Opportunities to learn Circumstances to navigate Choices to make Jobs do NOT provide: Happiness Identity Personal fulfillment Relying on a job for emotional satisfaction gives away personal power to an institution that ultimately functions independently of any individual physician. 3. The Three-Step Job Dissatisfaction Analysis Before making any career move, physicians should complete this process: Step 1 — Define What You Want Remove perceived limitations Create a detailed, specific vision Avoid vague dissatisfaction Step 2 — Give Yourself Permission to Complain Vent without judgment Complaints reveal unmet desires Clarity comes from honesty Step 3 — Expand Perspective Ask colleagues about their jobs Learn what exists outside your current environment Challenge assumptions about what is possible 4. The Legal Reality of Leaving a Job Amanda Hill explains why impulsive resignation is dangerous. Common contract “scorpion tail” provisions include: Sign-on bonus clawbacks Tail malpractice insurance obligations Notice period restrictions Loss of CME or vacation benefits Non-compete implications Key Message: Your contract determines your exit strategy — not your emotions. 5. Strategic Career Transition Principles Physicians should: Understand contracts before announcing resignation Maximize benefits while still employed Plan timing carefully Protect finances and reputation Transition from strategy, not burnout 6. The 90-Day Transition Program Dr. Vertrees and Amanda Hill introduce their collaborative program designed to help physicians: Evaluate whether to stay or leave Understand contracts Develop negotiation skills Create strategic transition plans Gain community and expert guidance Program Details Weekly sessions: Tuesdays at 6 PM Central Duration: 3 months Small group format Includes personalized guidance and recordings Founding member support continues beyond the program Real-World Success Stories Dr. Vertrees shares examples demonstrating the power of strategic action: Negotiated significant compensation increases for herself and partners Built a successful private practice after believing recruitment would be impossible Found professional fulfillment through intentional career design Key Lesson: Money alone does not fix misalignment — clarity and agency do.

Earlier this month, a meningitis outbreak in Canterbury, Kent, led to the tragic death of two young people. So far there have been 29 confirmed or suspected cases in total. It's thought that a “super-spreader” event at a nightclub is the source of the outbreak.Since then, there has been a mass rollout of vaccines for Meningitis B and preventative antibiotics. Thousands of students and contacts have been treated.Cases now appear to be slowing or stabilising, however, some questions have been raised over the speed of the response from the government. Post-Covid, fear amongst the public of the spread of infectious diseases is heightened. This meningitis outbreak has served as a test, not just of public health response and communication, but of how the public understands risk in a post-pandemic Britain. Anoosh Chakelian is joined by investigations editor, Hannah Barnes. READ: https://www.newstatesman.com/politics/health/2026/03/was-kent-prepared-for-meningitis LISTEN AD-FREE:

Reinvention in the automotive industry is no longer optional. It is survival. In this episode, Jan Griffiths sits down with Lori Lancaster, Vice Chair of Emotiv Mobility, to break down what reinvention really looks like when you are living it, not talking about it from a distance. The old playbook is cracking, and incremental improvement will not get us where we need to go. Yet many leaders are still holding on, waiting for direction instead of stepping up to create it.Lori did not wait. She made the decision to step back from the EV hype, resist the pressure to go all in, and focus instead on the real constraint holding the industry back. Infrastructure. That shift required courage. It meant challenging conventional thinking and refusing to follow the herd. Instead of chasing what everyone else was doing, she looked at where the real opportunity was and made a strategic move to meet it.That decision led to a bold reinvention of the business. By taking core automotive manufacturing capabilities such as process discipline, scale, and precision, Lori and her team expanded into energy and transformer production while exploring emerging mobility spaces like eVTOL. This was not diversification for the sake of it. It was a deliberate move to stabilize the business, reduce reliance on automotive cycles, and position the company for what comes next.But reinvention is not just about strategy. It is about leadership. Lori grounds her approach in servant leadership, accountability, and clarity of purpose. She makes it clear that transformation only works when people understand the why, when they are engaged in the journey, and when leaders create an environment of trust. Without that foundation, even the best strategy will fail.The message is simple and direct. If you are waiting for certainty, you are already behind. If you are waiting for direction, you have missed the point. Reinvention belongs to leaders who are willing to see what is coming, make the hard calls, and move forward without a safety net.Themes Discussed in this EpisodeReinvention as a survival strategyWhy incremental improvement is no longer enoughBreaking free from OEM dependency and legacy thinkingThe real barrier to EV adoption: infrastructure, not vehiclesDiversification beyond automotive to stabilize volatilityTranslating automotive manufacturing discipline into new industriesLeadership courage in high-risk, uncertain decisionsServant leadership vs command-and-control in transformationAccountability through clarity of purpose and shared visionCulture as the foundation for successful reinvention

On today's episode of the Play It Brave podcast, I'm talking about something many people in the wedding industry are quietly feeling but not always naming out loud. Photographers who used to book 15–20 weddings a year are sitting at just a handful. Retreats are being canceled. Educators who used to sell out instantly are extending deadlines. And behind the scenes, my DMs are filled with the same question: "Is it just me?" So today we're talking about it honestly. I invited my friend Alicia Daw — an experienced luxury wedding photographer who has spent decades in this industry — to join me for a grounded conversation about what's actually happening and how we can respond to it thoughtfully instead of panicking. I don't believe this is just a slow year. I think the industry is going through a correction — post-COVID demand leveling out, economic uncertainty, new buyer behavior, and major technological shifts like AI. The industry isn't ending, but it is changing. And the more clearly we see those changes, the better we can adapt. Key Takeaways This is likely a market correction, not just a slow season. Post-COVID demand, economic uncertainty, and industry saturation are all contributing to the shift. Buyer behavior has changed. Couples compare far more options, hesitate longer, and often communicate less clearly than past clients. Trust matters more than ever. Showing full galleries, simplifying pricing, and clearly communicating your process helps reduce buyer uncertainty. Generic brands struggle in a comparison-heavy market. Clear positioning and personality help you stand out among hundreds of similar photographers. The middle market feels the most pressure. Budget vendors will book, luxury vendors will continue booking, but the mid-range is often the most saturated. Pricing can be both aspirational and strategic. Holding premium dates for high-end bookings while remaining flexible with short-notice opportunities can create stability. Relationships still convert best. Planner relationships, venue partnerships, and referrals often outperform social media algorithms. Multiple revenue streams reduce stress. Diversifying income can provide stability when inquiries fluctuate. After more than 20 years in this industry, Alicia and I have both learned that the wedding world moves in cycles. The key isn't ignoring change, it's responding to it. That means strengthening your positioning, building trust with your clients, nurturing real relationships in the industry, and being willing to adjust your strategy as the market evolves. Challenges like this don't mean the industry is over. They simply mean we're being invited to grow, refine, and approach our businesses with more intention than ever. If you want deeper support in navigating this shift, Alicia shares about her Strategy Retreat in this episode, where she helps wedding professionals align their business strategy with the life they actually want to build. And as always, thank you for being here and for continuing to play it brave in your work and your business. Meet Alicia Alicia Daw is an international, luxury wedding photographer who has spent nearly three decades of her life globetrotting to 45 countries - and counting - while developing an effortless style for capturing exquisite and emotionally charged weddings and events.
