Podcasts about pots

Plants that live indoors with us over the winter — both houseplants and those that are only stored inside the house seasonally — need a few things from us to get through the darker, colder months. At the same time, too much coddling during this period of semi-dormancy can doom plants. This week, I am sharing how to prepare plants for the transition and how to strike the right balance to keep them happy and healthy.

At the Crexendo UGM, Jonathon Alarcon, Senior Director of Technology, and Jake Jacoby, CEO of TELCLOUD, joined Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, to discuss the company's channel-driven approach to modernizing analog infrastructure. With the copper network being decommissioned, TELCLOUD is helping partners capture new revenue by replacing POTS lines with smart, compliant, and resilient connectivity solutions. “We transform copper,” said Jacoby. “We're absolutely making analog great again for our partners. There's real opportunity in POTS one last time.” He explained that TELCLOUD's solutions enable MSPs and telecom providers to modernize elevator lines, fire alarms, blue-light phones, and other regulated endpoints—without compromising reliability or compliance. Alarcon, who has deep expertise in life-safety communications, emphasized how the company's technology supports critical applications. “Every elevator, every fire alarm, every emergency system still needs a phone line to stay compliant,” he said. “What we've done is create a platform that meets and exceeds those requirements while giving our partners new capabilities for video, data, and monitoring.” At the heart of this transformation is TELCLOUD's new POTSCAST line of devices, launched at UGM. These multi-purpose units use cellular connectivity and PoE backup to ensure continuous operation—even during power outages—and can stream video from elevator cameras directly to central monitoring stations. TELCLOUD's infrastructure is UL listed and adheres to NFPA and NEC standards, making it both compliant and future-proof. Equally important, TELCLOUD's model is 100% channel-focused. The company empowers partners to bring these services to their own customers under their own brands, offering either full-service white-label delivery—including porting, billing, and compliance—or flexible integration into existing telco and MSP environments. “We don't sell direct,” Jacoby noted. “We empower our partners to deliver compliant, high-value solutions to their end customers.” As a platinum sponsor of the conference, TELCLOUD's presence at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach drew attention for both its technical innovation and its signature “Make Analog Great Again” branding—a lighthearted nod to the serious business opportunity behind POTS transformation. For many partners, the discussion was a reminder that the analog world still holds enormous potential, and that modernization doesn't have to mean abandoning the trusted systems that keep people safe.

"What customers really want is service that just works — guaranteed, reliable, and built to last," says Jake Jacoby, CEO of TELCLOUD. “That's what modularity delivers — a system that's flexible, future-proof, and ready to adapt as technology evolves.” In this latest episode of the TELCLOUD POTS and Shots Podcast Series, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, sits down with Jacoby to explore how modularity and hybrid architecture are reshaping the future of POTS line replacement. Jacoby explains that while some providers have built all-in-one devices combining battery, conversion, and LTE/5G connectivity in a single box, that design often fails in real-world environments: “When you put a 5G radio in a basement, it's like trying to make a cell call underground,” he notes. Instead, TELCLOUD's modular approach separates the cellular router from the conversion hardware using Power over Ethernet (PoE) — allowing placement of the radio up to 250 feet away for optimal signal strength and reliability. This architecture also allows resellers to choose the right connectivity partner — TELCLOUD integrates with major vendors such as Ericsson, Digi, Peplink, and InHand Networks — and to easily upgrade from 4G to 5G or beyond without replacing the entire system. The on-premise equipment, designed to last 15 to 20 years, remains in place while connectivity evolves. TELCLOUD's hybrid model extends beyond hardware to the network layer itself. Unlike vendors that rely on voice-over-IP to deliver alarm or life-safety signals, TELCLOUD routes communications through its UL-listed data centers directly to certified central alarm stations — ensuring code compliance, redundancy, and end-to-end reliability. For resellers, this means a powerful selling advantage: Install once, manage remotely, and minimize truck rolls. Deliver guaranteed service uptime to customers. Future-proof deployments to avoid costly upgrades. "Ultimately, customers aren't buying hardware — they're buying confidence," Jacoby says. "TELCLOUD's flexible, hybrid solution makes sure that confidence lasts for decades." And in the Shots segment, Jacoby takes listeners on a guided tasting of Ocho Tequila, demonstrating three variations — Blanco, Reposado, and Añejo — to illustrate how aging changes the character and complexity of the same base spirit. “It's a perfect metaphor for technology,” he adds. “Same foundation, different maturity.” The POTS and Shots series continues to blend deep technical insight with a touch of culture — helping resellers modernize infrastructure while enjoying the finer details along the way.

Taran from the United States shares her journey with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) and Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), which began in 2015 when she suddenly passed out at work, becoming bedridden for six months. Despite being very active beforehand, she was left confused and distressed. After researching online and consulting with a cardiologist, Taran received diagnoses for POTS and EDS. For several years, they underwent a trial-and-error approach to treatment. In September 2024, Taran's mother discovered low-dose naltrexone (LDN) as a potential treatment, leading Taran to a primary care physician specializing in EDS. Nervously, she started LDN at a low dose and experienced significant pain and fatigue relief within days. After finding their optimal dose at 4.5 mg, Taran described the medication as a life-changing experience.Reflecting on her childhood, Taran recalls having eczema, random rashes, and food sensitivities, which went unnoticed due to their active lifestyle. Overall, she express gratitude for LDN and its impact on managing her symptoms.

The Push-Pull of ADHD and Autism: Stretching Without Breaking In this candid conversation, Patricia Young (she/her) and B Lourenco (she/her) dive deep into the realities of living with ADHD, autism, and other forms of neurodivergence. They explore the push-pull between self-accommodation and stretching ourselves, how shame and internalized ableism impact daily life, and what it means to create realistic support systems at home, in relationships, and in the workplace. Expect raw honesty, relatable stories, and practical insights for navigating neurodivergent life. WHAT YOU'LL HEAR IN THIS EPISODE · The ongoing "driver's seat battle" between ADHD and autism. · The push-pull between making accommodations and stretching ourselves beyond comfort. · Parenting a neurodivergent young adult while balancing when to push and when to allow rest. · Task initiation struggles — from making banana bread to cooking meals. · Body doubling as a powerful tool to reduce shame and spark motivation. · The "crisper/rotter" effect — guilt over wasted food and executive dysfunction. · Financial and practical impacts of task initiation challenges. · How privilege plays into having options like prepared or frozen meals when cooking feels impossible. · The cost of pushing through fatigue and flares with conditions like POTS and MCAS. · "Future me" thinking — and the difficulties neurodivergent folks have with impermanence. · Shame as the "ice cream scoop" on top of disability struggles. · Why diagnosis matters: language helps reduce shame and prevent repeating harmful patterns. · How powerlessness, and an attempt to gain autonomy can show up in small, reactive choices (like leaving a Facebook group). · Sensory sensitivities in family systems — how lack of accommodations can lead to dysfunction. · Practical accommodations for noise-sensitive parents and their kids. · Workplace challenges: 40-hour weeks, return-to-office pressures, and capitalism's rigidity. · Creative problem-solving in disabled and neurodivergent communities. · The deep fear of being uncared for and alone if we can't keep up. · Hyper-independence and isolation in the ADHD/autistic community. · Internalized ableism and the "shoulds" that drive shame and burnout. · Neurodivergence as a dynamic disability — what's possible one day isn't always possible the next. · Radical acceptance as a path toward reducing judgment and finding relief. SOUND BITES · "It begs the question of, okay, is that okay? Can we just say that's how it is?" – B Lourenco · "Instead of putting our energy into addressing the gap, folks will take the great divide and then put a scoop of shame on top of it." – B Lourenco · "All the terrible things that we tell ourselves… if I didn't have that awareness, I'd just keep repeating these patterns." – Patricia Young · "In order to truly accommodate ourselves, we have to acknowledge that it's as hard as it is and that we're as disabled as we are." – B Lourenco · "Sometimes I have to ask myself, what if what you're going through is exactly where you need to be?" – Patricia Young SENSITIVITY IS NOTHING TO APOLOGIZE FOR; IT'S HOW YOUR BRAIN IS WIRED You are not broken. You were shaped by systems that weren't built for you. You deserve rest, joy, and support exactly as you are. TOPICS COVERED (please adjust for addition of introduction) 00:00 Navigating Neurodivergence: A Personal Journey 02:59 Understanding Accommodations: Balancing Needs and Expectations 05:48 The Push-Pull of Task Initiation and Self-Care 08:33 Shame and Support: The Role of Community 11:35 The Impact of Environment on Neurodivergent Individuals 14:26 Workplace Challenges: The Struggle for Accommodations 17:16 Building Bridges: Community and Creative Solutions 20:00 Radical Acceptance: Embracing Our Reality 22:48 The Journey of Self-Discovery and Identity 25:42 The Dynamic Nature of Neurodivergence 29:02 Finding Joy in the Present Moment 31:47 The Bigger Picture: Building a Better Future 34:47 Conclusion: Resources and Future Endeavors PODCAST HOST Patricia Young (she/her) was a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 17 years, but she is now exclusively providing coaching. She knows what it's like to feel like an outcast, misfit, and truthteller. Learning about the trait of being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), then learning she is AuDHD with a PDA profile, OCD and RSD, helped Patricia rewrite her history with a deeper understanding, appreciation, and a sense of self-compassion. She created the podcasts Unapologetically Sensitive and Unapologetically AuDHD to help other neurodivergent folks know that they aren't alone, and that having a brain that is wired differently comes with amazing gifts, and some challenges. Patricia works online globally working individually with people, and she teaches Online Courses for neurodivergent folks that focus on understanding what it means to be a sensitive neurodivergent. Topics covered include: self-care, self-compassion, boundaries, perfectionism, mindfulness, communication, and creating a lifestyle that honors you Patricia's website, podcast episodes and more: www.unapologeticallysensitive.com PODCAST GUEST B Lourenco, MA, LMHC (she/her) is a licensed mental health counselor, educator, advocate, and activist. B has been working in community support for nearly 20 years and is committed to social change on all system levels. Seeing mental health advocacy as a way to serve the community, she earned a Master of Arts degree in Clinical Psychology, with a Systems Emphasis, in 2015 and began her private practice, B Lourenco Therapy in 2017. B has also worked in the public school system, providing support to students with behavioral issues that made attending school challenging for them. Highly trained in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), B became a district-wide expert in supporting neurodivergent students. It was during this work that she began to be critical of the medical models of support for neurodivergence, including ABA. Making the shift from the medical to the Neurodiversity-affirming model has allowed her to finally identify her own neurodivergence, including Autism and ADHD. Combining her lived experience of neurodivergence, along with years of anti-oppression work, B is passionate about helping others untangle themselves from harmful practices and align themselves with those that instead support marginalized communities. In addition to CE events for healthcare providers, she has also been a speaker on panels and podcasts, and also facilitates community based workshops. https://www.blourencotherapy.com LINKS Cascadia Training: https://cascadia-training.com Imani Barbarin—crutches_and_spice IG https://www.instagram.com/crutches_and_spice/ To write a review in itunes: click on this link https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/unapologetically-sensitive/id1440433481?mt=2 select "listen on Apple Podcasts" chose "open in itunes" choose "ratings and reviews" click to rate the number of starts click "write a review" Website--www.unapologeticallysensitive.com Facebook-- https://www.facebook.com/Unapologetically-Sensitive-2296688923985657/ Closed/Private Facebook group Unapologetically Sensitive-- https://www.facebook.com/groups/2099705880047619/ Instagram-- https://www.instagram.com/unapologeticallysensitive/ Youtube-- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOE6fodj7RBdO3Iw0NrAllg/videos?view_as=subscriber Tik Tok--https://www.tiktok.com/@unapologeticallysensitiv Unapologetically AuDHD Podcast-- https://unapologeticallysensitive.com/unapologeticallyaudhd/ e-mail-- unapologeticallysensitive@gmail.com Show hashtag--#unapologeticallysensitive Music-- Gravel Dance by Andy Robinson www.andyrobinson.com

In this powerful episode of the Tick Boot Camp Podcast, international DJ and artist duo Z3LLA — Julia “Juj” Seeley and Kiana Tebyani — share how chronic illness, creativity, and friendship became the foundation of their success. After years of unexplained symptoms, Juj was diagnosed with Lyme disease, Bartonella, Babesia, mold toxicity, POTS, SIBO, celiac disease, and later catamenial epilepsy. Despite life-altering health challenges, she and her best friend Kiana have built Z3LLA into one of the most exciting names in house music — with their single “Why Should I?” reaching #1 on the US Dance Radio Charts and performances alongside Disco Lines, Galantis, and Bijou. Together, Juj and Kiana discuss performing through flare-ups, collapsing backstage, navigating the medical system, and the emotional toll of chasing dreams while managing invisible illness. From ER visits and red-light therapy to steroid crashes and spiritual breakthroughs, this episode is a masterclass in resilience, vulnerability, and using art as advocacy.

A good job to do this time of year is to give your gardening pots, and greenhouse too if you have one, a thorough deep clean. It's a job that's easily neglected, but if you take the time now in autumn, you'll reap the benefits in spring when the growing season starts again in earnest. And, apart from the satisfaction you'll get from seeing gleaming pots and shiny greenhouse windows, it's important to get rid of any pests, diseases and mould that can overwinter.

Registered dietitian Cheryl Harris teaches us about Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome, or POTS, in children, including how to manage symptoms with nutrition.

When life deals you a complicated hand of chronic illnesses, what do you do with it? For Erica Falco, the answer was clear – transform it into a mission of connection and hope for others walking similar paths.At just 30 years old, this former elementary school teacher navigates a complex medical reality that includes stage 4 endometriosis (found throughout her body, even in her lungs), gastroparesis requiring a feeding tube, MCAS, POTS, Sjögren's, mitochondrial disease, and small fiber neuropathy. Yet instead of letting these conditions define her limits, Erica has channeled her experiences into creating beautiful moments of connection through her CareMail program.The heartbeat of Erica's advocacy is sending cards, stickers, fidgets, and love notes to fellow "warriors" facing chronic illness, mental health challenges, or difficult circumstances. This simple act was born from her own hospital experiences, knowing how meaningful it is to receive something in the mail besides medical bills. The program has sparked touching connections, including daily email exchanges with an elderly woman who says Erica's correspondence has brought childlike joy back into her life after many difficult years.Between managing medications through her feeding tube, attending multiple medical appointments, and navigating the challenges of healthcare systems that often dismiss complex patients, Erica finds small moments of joy through coloring, reading, and spending time with her beloved dog. Her advocacy is fueled by experiences with medical gaslighting and a desire to speak for those who struggle to advocate for themselves.Looking ahead, Erica hopes to expand her reach, possibly through educational conferences and new social media platforms. "I want to minimize suffering because this world is so broken," she shares, highlighting her core motivation to ensure no one feels alone in their health struggles.Want to support Erica's mission or request CareMail?

"Even though POTS lines are going away, the communication path is not," says Jake Jacoby, CEO of TELCLOUD. "Businesses still need reliable, code-compliant connections for fire, elevator, and life safety systems—and waiting until shutdowns hit is a risk no one can afford." In this latest episode of the TELCLOUD POTS and Shots Podcast Series, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, joins Jacoby to discuss the hidden dangers of waiting too long to replace copper lines—and why proactive planning can save businesses both money and operational disruption. Jacoby explains that while many organizations still rely on legacy copper for fire alarms and elevator systems, these lines are increasingly unreliable—and in some cases, already being shut down. A failing elevator line or a disconnected fire panel can render a business out of compliance, forcing costly alternatives such as Firewatch, where staff must patrol facilities around the clock. Meanwhile, carriers are accelerating their copper shutdowns after receiving FCC approval to decommission aging infrastructure. Though customers may receive a 30-day notice, Jacoby cautions that shutdowns can happen anytime thereafter: “If you've been given a notice and it's been more than 30 days, it's a gamble whether your line is still working.” For resellers and MSPs, Jacoby stresses the need to get ahead of the shutdown curve: Audit existing lines and identify critical life safety systems. Engage customers early to build rollout plans before demand surges. Leverage TELCLOUD's platform for faster deployment and long-term reliability. Proactive migration, he says, not only prevents service loss but also delivers lower costs, greater reliability, and a path to future-ready communications. True to the POTS and Shots format, the conversation closes with a taste of tequila—this time from south of the border. Broadcasting from TELCLOUD's support center in Tijuana, Mexico, Jacoby introduces Siete Leguas Blanco, a traditional, double-distilled tequila made using the old-world tahona process. Fun fact: the name honors Pancho Villa's legendary horse. The POTS and Shots series continues to blend industry insight with a touch of culture and storytelling—helping partners navigate the copper sunset while enjoying the finer things in life.

What happens when the medical establishment tells you your debilitating symptoms are "all in your head"? Dr. Diana Driscoll shares her journey from successful optometrist to disabled POTS patient and groundbreaking researcher. After a virus triggered debilitating autonomic dysfunction, she and her children faced severe health issues, prompting her to seek answers when traditional medicine failed them.Dr. Driscoll developed the Driscoll Theory, identifying three critical factors in conditions like POTS: high intracranial pressure, cardiovascular inflammation, and vagus nerve dysfunction. Surprisingly, standard treatments often exacerbated patients' conditions.Using her optometry skills, she identified subtle eye abnormalities indicating blood vessel damage, leading to the development of supplements like Parasym Plus that target the underlying issues affecting the autonomic nervous system. Now, her children live normal lives, proving recovery is possible.Dr. Driscoll's message is one of hope for those facing invisible illnesses: "There's always a reason for illness." Through POTS Care and ongoing research, she continues to seek answers for patients worldwide, offering support for anyone fighting for validation and effective treatments.Dr. Diana Driscoll.

We sit down with PBS host and producer Darley Newman of 'Travels with Darley' to explore how travel becomes a public service when it lifts up people, preserves memory, and invites visitors to feel at home in places they've never been. From goat trekking in Galena and hand‑built treehouses off the Great River Road to the living history of Rock Island Arsenal, Darley shows how the Midwest's quiet details reveal big character.We also pull back the curtain on building a modern travel brand across PBS, Amazon Prime, YouTube, iHeart, and more. Darlie shares practical storytelling tactics—why you don't need to be everywhere, how to pick the platform your audience actually uses, and how to craft tight, emotional reels that say more in 60 seconds than a brochure says in ten pages. Her lens on makers and small businesses—think Dot's Pots, Navarro Canoe, Boetje's Mustard—highlights why hands‑on experiences anchor destination marketing: they turn curiosity into connection and visitors into champions.The conversation stretches beyond leisure to moments that stay with you. Filming along Alabama's Civil Rights Trail, Darley met women who lived the movement as children—stories that command attention and humility. In Santa Fe, a quiet session with horses reshaped what presence can feel like. Those experiences, and simple plans for Darley's return to the Quad Cities—walking the bridge, meeting more entrepreneurs, tasting Quad City style pizza—underline a core belief: design for memory, not just metrics. If you care about authentic travel, community storytelling, and finding hidden gems along the Mississippi River and beyond, you'll feel right at home here.

In this episode from the IRONMAN World Championship Kona, host Matt Lieto sits down with three remarkable athletes ahead of the Women's IRONMAN World Championship: Skye Moench, Hannah Berry, and Stephanie Clutterbuck.  First, Skye Moench returns to the Big Island with a completely new perspective. Now a mother to her 11-month-old, she shares how her life has profoundly changed, shifting from an “obsessive” focus on results to a “freeing” sense of gratitude. Skye opens up about the challenging journey back to fitness postpartum and explains why her only goal is to cross the finish line, respecting what her body has been through. She also expresses her excitement for the women's-only race and the special camaraderie she feels with fellow mothers on the course.  Next, New Zealand's Hannah Berry discusses her steady progression at World Championship events, moving from 11th in Kona two years ago to 10th in Nice last year. Coming into this race with a smooth, injury-free build, Hannah talks about her love for the Hawaiian heat and humidity. She details her calculated racing style, which balances a data-driven plan with the crucial ability to race by feel—a strategy she believes is key to navigating the unpredictable dynamics of a championship race.  Finally, Stephanie Clutterbuck shares an incredibly powerful and inspiring story of resilience. She opens up about a terrifying year-long health battle that included a diagnosis of myocarditis (heart inflammation) and POTS, a condition that affects the nervous system. Stephanie explains how this journey has forced her to re-learn her body's limits and adopt a more sensible, calculated approach to racing. For her, success on Saturday isn't about a place, but about managing her condition, executing a smart race, and finishing with a strong second half of the marathon.

"There are over a billion copper lines worldwide that will disappear in the next five to ten years," says Jake Jacoby, CEO of TELCLOUD. "That's why we built our platform from day one to be global—so our partners can meet this challenge anywhere their customers do business." In the latest episode of the TELCLOUD POTS and Shots Podcast Series, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, sits down with Jacoby to discuss the international scale of the POTS replacement opportunity. While the U.S. still faces the conversion of more than 25 million commercial lines, the global market represents an even larger transformation—with more than a billion lines of legacy copper that must be replaced over the coming decade. Jacoby explains that TELCLOUD's success in the U.S. has driven demand abroad, with active deployments now in Canada, Mexico, Germany, the UK, and additional markets in Europe, Asia-Pacific, and South America. By engineering devices and a platform ready for worldwide deployment, TELCLOUD enables resellers and carriers to address regional regulations, dial plans, and connectivity challenges while still relying on a single global backend. For channel partners, this means two things: Cross-border opportunity – Many customers already operate in both the U.S. and Canada or Mexico, making international coverage a natural next step. Global scalability – TELCLOUD's cloud-native design and partnerships with providers like AWS GovCloud ensure compliance and reliability, even in highly regulated environments. Jacoby also highlighted the broader industry shift away from aging copper toward fiber, wireless, and satellite connectivity, noting that TELCLOUD's mission is to bridge the gap—supporting legacy equipment with modern, resilient infrastructure that delivers long-term reliability. This episode marks the 20th edition of the POTS and Shots series, and Jacoby reflected on the journey so far: “What started as a creative way to talk about technology has become an educational platform that's helping resellers rethink their role in the copper sunset. We're excited for the next 20.” And true to the Shots tradition, Jacoby shared a special tasting from his travels: the Arete Gran Clase Extra Añejo, a four-year-aged tequila brought to Shanghai as a gift for international partners—underscoring the global theme of this episode.

Nervous system regulation is all the rage and it is so important to so many symptoms and health conditions. When you have an overactive and highly sensitive system, it might not be enough to take a deep breath or trigger your vagus nerve with singing or cold water. Those tools are powerful and you should know how to use them but for many of us the ultimate root cause of mast cell activation, autoimmunity, chronic issues like long covid, POTS, etc. is deeper trauma that created a lack of safety and we need to address that before gut health, hormone balance, or other triggers can be safely dealt with. If you or someone you know is chemically sensitive, can't tolerate many foods or supplements or feel like you are spinning your wheels with chasing inflammation or histamine problems, don't miss this episode!    Resources mentioned in the episode:   What Is Histamine Intolerance this article includes a free download for my low histamine diet   Tools For Regulating Your Nervous System    Grab the Midlife Is More Than HRT guide free right here if like me, midlife didn't feel quite like you expected.

Check out the collection of fidgets Team Shiny loves! Is the 'overdiagnosing' of ADHD, autism, and other neurodevelopmental conditions a 'danger,' and to whom? Isabelle and David continue taking some common myths and misperceptions, questioning who and how we gatekeep 'neurodiversity' (including the idea that maybe there really is no 'neurotypical')--and how one group's fears that these labels harm us cannot negate the fear neurospicy folks have that they will be in trouble, or judged, or stigmatized for being who they are and unmasking. Also using the power of compassion and inviting more conversations, while not jumping to cancelling anyone--because everyone gets to fart in an elevator once or twice. -----Isabelle is coming in hot. She continues to explore her reaction to a podcast episode she listened to recently, Armchair Expert with guest Suzanne O'Sullivan on overdiagnosis, which went from covering seizure disorders to ADHD and autism, especially high-masking autism, real quick.  She is so frustrated that a non-expert on ADHD—someone like O'Sullivan, whose expertise is working with epilepsy and seizure disorders, has now spent so much time talking about ADHD and autism when that is not an area of expertise. David names that he thinks this is an important conversation to have, because we are validating the other perspectives. There is a medical model of disease sets us up to want to oppose or eradicate the ‘disease;' where things like neurodevelopment conditions like ADHD and autism are not something to be ‘cured' or ‘fixed.” David makes the comparison, its like a bunch of people sitting and talking about going to Mexico when no one has ever been there—cultural representation. For example, someone has mild amounts of anxiety throughout the day. They understand this anxiety as having ADHD. They use ADHD interventions to help them and they found a community, and it makes sense and they feel better, it works for them. And then someone comes up with a reason to say that person does not have ADHD, that this definition does not apply—why are we being so careful when it comes to gatekeeping diversity, including neurodiversity?  This wonderful person that David met at a training, named Shay, asked: is there anyone that is neurotypical? We could think of the difference between traits and states. And then he thought about personal examples. He doesn't know if there is someone "neurotypical." Would it to be less shocking that people have different neurological needs or educational differences if we recognized that there may be no 'one' baseline or group to compare everything to? And how quickly we dismiss difference--like knowing that because David listened to books, the argument that what he did was not 'reading'--but we get back to actual question, which is...what was the task, and did it get done?  Often, talking about the fantasy of how ADHD looks or how its supposed to be, it's more about other people. A lot of people with ADHD believe that if its easy for them, they're cheating. Because its supposed to be hard. Do most non-ADHD people think that way?  The debates are now that anxiety, bipolar disorder, OCD—these are neurological differences—they are also looking at causal factors to all these conditions that are not chosen. So is the only person who is ‘normal' the person who has no feelings, reactions, or responses?  Someone who has no big responses to stimuli, someone who is antisocial? Isabelle does fall into the categorizing and black and white thinking, and how its a part of learning, to categorize and generalize. This is not dissimilar to how people talk about race, gender, and about culturally defined parts of experiences because we collectively make them a thing—maybe its myth making and collective storytelling. There is a gravitational pull to the idea of being neurotypical or mentally ‘well' and then there's good and bad. Isabelle wonders where the compassion goes? David speaks up—they have compassion. People are scared. People are scared and when we're scared, we have a reflexive reactions. People have found safety or comfort in the label of ‘normal' or ‘neurotypical,' and they see difference as not good, and they're really trying to, in their mind, help people in their messaging. Terror management theory: when you're scared, you find a group of people who are like you and you band together to be less scared. So, there are a chunk of people out there who are getting very specific about who is in or out of the group.  David can have a lot of compassion for that fear, that fear about who gets to belong. But he also wants to speak to the neurodivergent person who is doing something you tell them will help—and it hurts them? It's a real fear we carry. David uses the example of his mom—bless her heart (see the Southern US use of this phrase on many levels below)—who grew up being told the importance of having arch support in shoes, and so when David had flat feet, she had him use these inserts—David is not blaming his mom, she did the best she could—lots of people are told not to touch things, don't go into the light. Every neurodivergent person has to have the fear “I'm doing this wrong, I'm in trouble, I'm doing something bad!” To little David: you know, you have flat feet, you have more stability around corners—but another voice would say “don't tell anyone you have flat feet, it's bad.” He has compassion for the fear people have that want everyone to be the same, to not stand out or be different, and there is also a fear that neurodivergent people sit with every day about whether or not they're allowed to act the way they act. Isabelle names that the podcasters were saying “oh, these diagnoses are an excuse to then act in ways that are socially awkward.” Ahem. Isabelle describes how this feels like when she describes her inner workings to someone in all the steps she takes when she sits down next to someone, wondering if this is the right physical distance, is she staring at their eyebrows too long, is she pausing appropriately, etc.—and when she unmasks and reveals this, the person considers it a compliment to say “I couldn't tell.” It's the idea that someone outside of you knows more about your experience than you do. The way that diagnoses connect to power and gatekeeping for services and Isabelle makes the point that those who are saying “over diagnosis is dangerous”—to whom? On what planet are folks who are neurospicy getting enough of the supports and services and resources and access that they need? The system is already failing most of us. David names: this isn't cancer, this isn't people getting chemo erroneously. There is no danger in identification, it's about getting our needs met. What do we do as a society to neglected people, and the more you know about your needs, the less of a danger being neglected becomes. This is a question of someone who knows a lot about things wandered over into another area and made bold statements without the expertise. Isabelle was extra miffed that she also dismissed the intersections of Autism, ADHD, POTS, hyper mobile Ehlers Danlos, and MCAS and ‘nonexistent' —so damaging and harmful. These are real things, the interconnectedness of them is being actively researched, just because you are new to the party does not make something false or untrue. As David puts it, in the 70's or 80's, the APA took a vote to decide if being gay was good or bad, essentially (“do we keep gayness as a disorder?” Yes folks, this was that recently. GAH.). Now imagine someone was asleep for ten years and missed that memo and is now walking around looking at pride flags wondering “why are there so man...

“Fire alarms, elevators, emergency phones—these systems are mandated by law, and they require reliable communication paths,” says Jake Jacoby, Founder & CEO of TELCLOUD. At Navigate 25, Jacoby spoke with Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, about the growing urgency of replacing traditional copper POTS lines as carriers abandon legacy infrastructure. With deregulation driving up costs and carriers shifting investment to wireless and fiber, millions of POTS-dependent systems are at risk. TELCLOUD provides a backend platform that enables reseller partners to deliver next-generation POTS replacement services. Unlike one-size-fits-all box solutions, TELCLOUD's flexible platform integrates with partners such as Ericsson, Digi, Peplink, and others, ensuring reliable connectivity, 24-hour battery backup, and compliance with NFPA, CAL FIRE, and local fire department codes. Jacoby emphasized that POTS replacement is no longer optional modernization but a legal requirement. “Elevator phones, fire panels—if those lines go down, buildings become unsafe and unusable. Our platform ensures compliance, monitoring, and future-proof reliability.” TELCLOUD has also built direct API integrations with Metaswitch and Alianza, allowing partners to bring their own switching infrastructure and leverage TELCLOUD's expertise to deliver code-compliant solutions. “We're not customer-facing—we're the engine behind the resellers. Customers trust their providers, sometimes for decades. We help those providers deliver POTS replacement the right way.” For more information, visit telcloud.com.

“It's a $50 billion market—but it can only be captured with diligence, the right hardware stack, and the right partners,” says Tina Telson, Founder & CEO of SouthLight Services. At Navigate 25, Telson joined Jake Jacoby, Founder & CEO of TELCLOUD, in conversation with Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, to discuss how their partnership is helping enterprises and service providers address the urgent challenge of replacing legacy POTS lines. SouthLight, a voice-focused boutique MSP founded in 2024, has made POTS replacement a core service, backed by TELCLOUD's flexible backend platform. The collaboration allows SouthLight to deliver code-compliant, monitored, and future-proofed alternatives for fire alarms, elevators, and other mandated life-safety systems. Telson emphasized the ground-level realities of the opportunity: “Replacing these lines is not easy. It takes preparedness in order to be successful. You can't just slam something on a wall and hope that it works—you have to plan for it.” Jacoby agreed, highlighting that TELCLOUD's role is to empower resellers like SouthLight: “We built this platform for partnerships. Resellers bring the expertise and customer relationships. We deliver the engine behind the scenes.” The pair also pointed to the nuances of compliance—passing fire marshal inspections, ensuring 24-hour battery backup, and integrating with platforms like Alianza and Metaswitch through APIs. Their joint approach reduces risks for customers while enabling MSPs to scale into a multi-billion-dollar opportunity without cutting corners.

This week's EYE ON NPI takes a look at a new product with a lot of potential: it's the Microchip Technology MCP41U83 (Single) and MCP42U83 (Dual) Digital Potentiometer series. This family of solid-state potentiometers is ready to replace your mechanical knobs and trimmers: no through hole soldering, and no mechanical failures due to oil, dirt or vibration. With 10-bit resolution, you'll get excellent repeatability and precision for tweaking analog voltages. And, the high 100MHz+ bandwidth means you can use it for filters, audio, sensors, without worry that about losing your signal shape. Potentiometers are trusty mechanical-to-electrical components, used in almost every design to convert mechanical motion - both linear and rotational - to an electronic signal that can easily be measured. They're inexpensive, available in thousands of configurations (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/category/potentiometers-variable-resistors/5): linear or logarithmic, panel mount or SMT, single or dual, linear or rotational, in values from 1 ohm up to 1 Meg. They all pretty much work the same way, with a strip of conductive material such that from end-to-end the resistance is the total 'range' of the pot, and a wiper that literally wipes across from one end to another. Pots can be easily configured as voltage dividers by putting a signal across the two ends and then 'tapping' in to the wiper. Or, they can be rheostats (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potentiometer#Rheostat) where only one end and the wiper are used to make a variable resistor value. We love pots and trimmers and use them all the time, but they have serious down-sides. Over time, the wipers eventually scrape through the conductive material creating 'scratchy' pots that jump around in value. Or, oil and dust get in and gunk up the internals (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUMxFIH5BN8). They can also drift over time or with humidity so that the center isn't really centered anymore. Also, if your product gets moved around, the knob can get bumped or if its a trimmer, it can get shifted from the vibration (https://forum.digikey.com/t/potentiometer-locking-adhesive-goop/50757) - for that reason if you open up a product with trimmers often times they are dabbed with wax or glue to keep them 'set' (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/mg-chemicals/4228A-55ML/17884735). Thus the genius of digital pots! The Microchip Technology MCP41U83 (https://www.digikey.com/short/wt3zwnq5) and MCP42U83 series chips can replace the mechanical versions while providing I2C or SPI interface for configuration. Unlike many digital pot chips we've used in the past, the MCP41U83 (https://www.digikey.com/short/wt3zwnq5) has 10-bits of resolution for 1024 positions - most top-out at 7-bits or 128 positions! That means you'll actually get better resolution and repeatability than a mechanical pot. Also, many digipots lose their value when power cycled, but the MCP41U83 (https://www.digikey.com/short/wt3zwnq5) comes with internal non-volatile memory so once you've settled on a value you can save it semi-permanently. Note that the NVRAM is rated for 1000 cycle writes so just be aware you can't write to it continuously. The MCP41U83 (https://www.digikey.com/short/wt3zwnq5) comes with both I2C and SPI interfaces. For I2C there are two address pins so you can select up to 4 addresses. For SPI, the pots can be 'daisy-chained' together for up to 128 without needing separate CS lines for each one. For power/logic you can use 2.7~5.5V. If you happen to want to use this for a split supply, you can but the split voltages will still need to be no more than -2.75 and +2.75V. A nice specification we noted in the datasheet is the high bandwidth, with tens-of-MHz even at 100Kohm - this makes it a fine substitute for trimmers in analog settings where signal is passing through the pot such as filters or op-amp circuits. For times when you have stereo signals you want to manage at the same time, there's also the MCP42U83 (https://www.digikey.com/short/hcqj8nn2) which has dual separated pots inside. Both configurations come in both QFN and TSSOP packages, for easy pick-and-placing. We really like the ease and simplicity of these digital potentiometers with good documentation and just enough features to solve common engineering requirements. Whether you need the signal channel MCP41U83 (https://www.digikey.com/short/wt3zwnq5) or dual MCP42U83 (https://www.digikey.com/short/hcqj8nn2), 5K or 100K, QFN or TSSOP. DigiKey has the full series in stock (https://www.digikey.com/short/wz13wpp5) right now for immediate shipment! Order today and you can start integrating these components into your next design by tomorrow afternoon.

Join us for our Histamine and Hormones Training on September 28th!Why do some women feel amazing during certain phases of their cycle while others feel absolutely wrecked?In this episode, I'm joined by Michelle Shapiro, RD, a functional dietitian who works with clients navigating Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) and histamine issues. She also lives with MCAS herself, bringing both professional insight and personal experience to the table.Why do histamine flares hit hardest right when hormones shift? Tune in as we break down the menstrual cycle, step by step, and look at how mast cells and histamines interact with rising and falling hormones. The patterns aren't always what you'd expect, and tracking them can change everything about how you handle symptoms.You'll Learn:The role of mast cells in the immune system and why histamine release can trigger so many symptomsThe link between rising estrogen and increased histamine releaseWhy people with histamine issues can have paradoxical hormone symptomsHow long histamines actually stay in your system, and ways to avoid long-term sufferingWhat happens when conditions like POTS and hypermobility overlap with histamine issues during the cyclePractical strategies for tracking cycle patterns to spot histamine-driven flaresThe debate around antihistamines, pregnancy, and de-stigmatizing medication for symptom reliefWhy lowering histamines must come before deeper root-cause work like gut or mineral protocolsThe connection between histamines, mast cells, and endometriosisTimestamps:[00:00] Introduction[10:17] How estrogen and histamine interact to trigger symptoms during the menstrual cycle[13:53] How progesterone and luteal phase shifts trigger unexpected symptoms in histamine, POTS, and hypermobility clients[21:47] Tracking cycles and temperatures to spot patterns and histamine flares[25:53] Using antihistamines and other strategies to manage flares and reduce stigma around medication[48:09] Understanding the immune system's role in endometriosis and its connection to histamine and progesteroneListen to Other Hormone Healing Episodes with Michelle:MCAS, POTS, & Hypermobility Part 1 | Listen HereMCAS, POTS, & Hypermobility Part 2 | Listen HereThe Root Cause of Reflux | Listen HereResources Mentioned:Ovia Cycle-tracking App | WebsiteNatural Cycles Fertility Awareness App | WebsiteOura Ring | WebsiteTempdrop Wearable Sensor | WebsiteRead Your Body App | WebsitePodcast with Nina Boyce on Fertility Awareness Method | PodcastFind more from Michelle:Michelle Shapiro RD | InstagramMichelle Shapiro RD | WebsiteMichelle Shapiro Nutrition | YouTubeFind more from Amanda:Hormone Healing RD | InstagramHormone Healing RD | WebsiteHormone Healing RD | FacebookHormone Healing RD | YouTubeHormone Healing RD | TikTok
