Endless meetings can be exhausting — but what if they could actually be productive and meaningful? Kim and Amy talk with Dr. Steven Rogelberg, author of Glad We Met and The Surprising Science of Meetings, about how to run effective meetings and make every minute count — especially during one-on-one meetings. Steven shares research-backed tips for running better meetings, from framing agendas as questions to setting clear meeting norms that invite everyone's voice. He explains why one-on-one meetings are the most important conversations managers can have, how they build trust, strengthen relationships, and boost team performance, and why they should never be replaced by an email. If you're ready to spend less time in unproductive meetings and more time having conversations that count, this episode offers helpful guidance on meeting best practices, better collaboration, and creating space for real connection.

Ever reached a crossroads in your business journey and wondered if it was time for a major shift?In this special episode, I open up about the real reasons behind rebranding Podcast Town and walk you through my thought process, the challenges, and my strategy for moving forward with clarity, purpose, and alignment.Here are 3 Key Takeaways:1. Embrace the Signals of Misalignment: If you find yourself losing excitement for your work, it may be a sign that your business and your personal purpose are out of sync. Recognizing these signals early and honestly is essential for realigning your mission and reigniting your passion.2. The Power of Refocusing Your Brand: By consolidating all efforts and offerings under the Journey to Mastery umbrella—and creating EF3 Studios as a dedicated media arm—I've removed distractions, allowing one mission to guide every move. Tight alignment fuels clarity, momentum, and operational simplicity.3. Leading Through Change: Any pivot or rebrand impacts your team. Leading with transparency, communicating shifts well in advance, and being prepared for transitions (including team members moving on) is crucial for a healthy, future-proof business. Not everyone can go with you to the next level, and that's okay.

In this episode, host Etienne Nichols sits down with Lesley Worthington, an executive coach with a background in psychology, law, and over 20 years in quality and regulatory affairs. They explore the critical, yet often overlooked, role of communication in building a robust culture of quality. Lesley explains that while quality professionals possess deep technical knowledge, they often struggle to be heard because they focus on being clear and correct rather than on making others feel understood. This conversation delves into why traditional training methods fall short and how a shift in mindset can lead to better relationships and greater influence.Lesley highlights that true influence and buy-in don't come from simply explaining things well, but from actively listening and making others feel heard. The discussion touches on common pitfalls, such as using excessive jargon, over-explaining, and failing to understand the listener's perspective. Lesley emphasizes the importance of building trust and psychological safety, which allows for open communication and the ability to ask clarifying questions without fear. She shares practical strategies, like paraphrasing to confirm understanding and moving from a "broadcast" mindset to one of curious listening.The conversation concludes with a look at the limits of traditional training, which often focuses on information over action and fails to address personal habits and emotional intelligence. Lesley describes how her coaching practice provides a personalized space for professionals to think through their specific challenges and discover their own solutions. She advocates for simple, plain language and encourages a shift from fear-based interactions to curiosity-driven ones, underscoring that the core of effective communication is a human-centric approach.Key Timestamps[02:52] - The PR Problem: Lesley addresses why skilled professionals in quality and regulatory roles often struggle to be heard, linking it to their non-direct authority and a tendency to prioritize correctness over relationships.[06:34] - The Buy-in Breakthrough: The difference between being understood and making someone feel understood is explored, revealing that true buy-in hinges on empathy and listening.[09:34] - Communication Blind Spots: This segment uncovers common, subconscious behaviors that undermine communication, such as using too much jargon, over-explaining, and failing to consider the audience's knowledge.[14:17] - The Power of Admitting 'I Don't Know': Etienne and Lesley discuss how acknowledging a lack of understanding can build trust and demonstrate self-awareness, countering the fear of appearing "dumb."[16:42] - Fear vs. Curiosity: Etienne shares his perspective on curiosity as the opposite of fear and a powerful tool for overcoming communication anxieties.[18:12] - Why Training Fails: The limitations of traditional corporate training are examined, highlighting its focus on information rather than the personalized, action-oriented work required for true behavioral change.[25:39] - The Coaching Advantage: Lesley explains how coaching helps professionals solve their own problems and gain clarity by creating a dedicated space for focused thinking and reflection.Quotes"Buy-in isn't about whether people understand; it's about whether people feel understood." — Lesley Worthington"Curiosity... I think the opposite of fear is curiosity." — Etienne NicholsTakeawaysShift from Correctness to Connection: The most effective medical device professionals understand that their influence isn't solely based on being technically correct. Instead, they build strong relationships by...

Back in May, Kirk joined pianists Adam Maness and Peter Martin of the You'll Hear It podcast to talk about what makes Tower of Power great. It was a very fun conversation, so he asked if he could run their episode in the Strong Songs feed. And here we are!Listen to You'll Hear It anywhere you find podcasts, and find both Adam and Peter (and many others) teaching jazz lessons at OpenStudio.com.ORIGINAL SHOW NOTESMay 19, 2025We hand the mic to Kirk Hamilton from the Strong Songs podcast to help us break down the groovy 1973 self-titled release: Tower of Power. We unpack what makes this Oakland funk outfit a generational institution – from David Garibaldi's precision drum fills and Rocco Prestia's machine-gun bass lines to what may be the tightest horn section of all time. We dig into standout tracks like “What Is Hip?” and “Soul Vaccination,” spotlight Lenny Pickett's wild ascent from TOP to SNL, and detail some funny production quirks (like why the drums are panned hard left). It's a full-course tour through funk, soul, and brass brilliance – with a healthy side of stank face.----LINKS-----

Women's health is complicated, isn't it? Between stress, hormones, and all the changes that come with midlife, it can feel like we're constantly trying to put puzzle pieces together without seeing the full picture. That's why I loved sitting down with Dr. Margaret Christensen to talk about what's really going on beneath the surface. She's sharing a perspective on health, intimacy, and connection that every woman deserves to hear. Dr. Margaret walked this journey herself. After facing serious health challenges from toxic mold exposure, she shifted from being a traditional OB-GYN to a leader in functional medicine. Now she helps women uncover the root causes of what's draining their energy, throwing off their hormones, and leaving them feeling disconnected. In our conversation, she opens up about midlife changes, hormone therapy, and how we can reclaim both our vitality and our joy. What really struck me was how she talks about sexuality and connection, not as something to be hidden or ignored, but as a powerful force for healing. We cover everything from navigating menopause to rekindling intimacy to why relationships are so key for our health. If you've ever felt like you're just pushing through midlife instead of thriving in it, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.

There is no escaping stress but cortisol in menopause changes. With that, your stress response to nearly everything may change.

Questions We Answer in This Episode: [00:00:00] What is the difference between acute and chronic stress? [00:00:00] What is causing chronic stress? [00:00:00] Why is this so critical to understand what impacts cortisol in menopause? [00:00:00] How does it affect muscle gain and fat loss? [00:00:00] How is the thyroid related to the adrenals? [00:00:00] How can you maintain and build lean muscle while under stress over 50? [00:00:00] What supplements help get your adrenals back on track? [00:00:00] What lifestyle habits either kill or improve cortisol? Why Cortisol in Menopause Makes Stress Feel Different Acute vs Chronic Cortisol Acute stress Short-term, natural response to immediate danger. Cortisol helps survival (fight-or-flight). Immune system goes up. Chronic stress Prolonged, ongoing; body never recovers. Chronic stress keeps cortisol elevated → negative health effects. Causes of Chronic Stress in Midlife & Menopause Perimenopause & menopause: the stressors don't change, but the response to them does. Common triggers: lack of sleep, poor diet, environmental toxins, over-exercise, emotional stress. Cortisol's Effect on Muscle Gain & Fat Loss Elevated cortisol breaks down muscle tissue. Interferes with protein synthesis, leading to muscle loss. Promotes fat storage, especially visceral (belly) fat. Lowers metabolism → makes weight management harder. Lifestyle Solutions for Cortisol in Menopause Diet: whole foods, protein-rich, healthy fats, avoid processed sugar. Supplements: adaptogens (ashwagandha, rhodiola), magnesium, vitamin C or Sara Banta's Cortisol Reset Detox Recovery: sleep, restorative exercise (yoga, walking, pilates), breathwork, meditation.

SummaryMountains don't move without power. In this sermon from Matthew 17, we see Jesus teach His disciples why some breakthroughs never come—because this kind only comes out by prayer and fasting. Pastor Chris preaches on demonic strongholds, the devil's strategies, and the supernatural resistance we face in prayer. More importantly, he shows the key to overcoming: faith, prayer, fasting, and desperate dependence on God.If you need breakthrough in salvation, finances, healing, or fruitfulness, this message will challenge you to seek God until mountains move.Chapters0:00 – Intro: Next Gen Friday0:35 – Scripture Reading (Matthew 17)2:26 – The Mountains We Face: Salvation, Finances, Healing4:46 – Demonic Strongholds Explained7:06 – Hierarchy of Demonic Powers9:21 – Facing “This Kind” of Demon11:20 – Daniel's Prayer and Delayed Answer13:30 – Angels, Resistance, and Spiritual Warfare15:56 – Don't Give Up Too Soon in Prayer17:51 – The Devil's Devices and Strategy20:09 – Resistance Always Follows Breakthrough21:42 – Posture of Resistance: Be Militant in Prayer24:01 – Why “This Kind” Requires Prayer and Fasting26:05 – The Power of Desperation27:35 – Fasting: Struggles and Reality Check29:09 – Testimonies of Breakthrough Through Fasting31:21 – Desperation That Leads to Salvation33:33 – Why Fasting Must Be a Lifestyle35:45 – Faith Like a Mustard Seed Moves Mountains36:58 – The Finger of God Flicks Away Demons39:00 – Connected to God's Power Through Fasting41:00 – Lifestyle vs. Ritual Fasting42:00 – Closing Call: Conquering Mountains in PrayerShow NotesALL PROCEEDS GO TO WORLD EVANGELISMLocate a CFM Church near you: https://cfmmap.orgWe need five-star reviews!

In today's episode of the Second in Command podcast, Cameron shares a powerful analogy between preparing for a trek through Nepal and leading a growing business. Just like training for a demanding physical challenge, business leaders must begin with a broad vision, identifying where they want to go before diving into the finer details. Early momentum, even without a fully formed plan, sets the stage for long-term success and enables thoughtful preparation when it matters most.You'll learn how forward-looking strategy—distinct from rigid long-term plans—can shape critical business decisions. By thinking through “what if” scenarios and visualizing future states, companies can anticipate needs like infrastructure, staffing, or supply chain adjustments. This mindset doesn't require perfect predictions but encourages strategic conversations that prime the team for rapid execution when real opportunities or challenges arise.Cameron emphasizes the value of proactive visualization over exhaustive five-year plans. Instead of locking in static goals, this episode advocates for flexible, evolving strategy discussions that spark innovation, expose blind spots, and keep teams agile. The takeaway? Look ahead boldly, plan backwards, and be ready to act when the future arrives faster than expected.Want a clearer path to your $100M vision?

How many female entrepreneurs, merchants and industrialists can you name? We all know the names Rockefeller, Medici and Ford, but what about Priscilla Wakefield, who founded the first bank for women and children? Or the businesswoman Julia Felix, who built a property empire in Ancient Rome? In her new book, Economica: A Global History of Women, Wealth and Power, Dr Victoria Bateman charts the vital contributions made by women to humanity's path from poverty to prosperity. In this episode, she sat down with historian Caroline Dodds Pennock for a wide-ranging conversation - from the market queens of 18th century West Africa to the everyday working women of the Industrial Revolution, to the women who laid the foundations for the computer industry. She shows that throughout history, civilisations thrive when women are working alongside men, and decline when women are forced away from paid work into the home, and explores the lessons these histories hold for our economic future. Victoria Bateman is a feminist economist and academic. Economica is available now.

Why modern communication still relies on ancient words and narratives.All communication and connection depend on one thing: language. That's why Laura Spinney says understanding language — where it comes from and how it evolves over time — can help us use it more effectively.“Language is incredibly powerful,” says Spinney, an author and journalist published in the Atlantic, National Geographic, Nature, and New Scientist. As “humanity's oldest tool,” language has evolved as we have, which Spinney explores in her latest book, Proto: How One Ancient Language Went Global. In addition to the words themselves, there are also the stories that humans have carried with them for millennia. “Some stories that we still tell today,” Spinney notes, have remained stable for tens of thousands of years — providing more than just entertainment — shaping how we understand the world, share knowledge, and build community.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Spinney and host Matt Abrahams discuss why language and storytelling are fundamental to being human, what makes a story compelling, and how our ever-evolving language continues to be our best tool for communication and connection.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Laura Spinney Laura's Books: Proto / Pale RiderEp.168 How Story Can Change Everything in Your CareerEp.91 Um, Like, So: How Filler Words Can Create More Connected, Effective Communication Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:24) - Power & Limits of Language (02:55) - Detecting Lies (04:46) - Origins of Storytelling (07:42) - What Makes a Great Story (10:31) - Proto-Indo-European Language (12:52) - Language Families & Connections (15:06) - Language Clues in History (17:17) - The Final Three Questions (21:56) - Conclusion *****Thank you to our sponsors: Stanford Continuing Studies.

The Bulletproof Dental Podcast Episode 405 HOSTS: Dr. Peter Boulden and Dr. Craig Spodak GUEST: Dr. Brian Harris DESCRIPTION In this engaging conversation, Dr. Brian Harris shares his journey from burnout to rediscovering his passion for dentistry. He emphasizes the importance of patient enrollment and how virtual consultations can enhance the patient experience. The discussion covers the psychology behind patient interactions, the role of technology in modern dentistry, and the significance of building trust and transparency with patients. Dr. Harris also highlights the need for dentists to focus on providing value and creating lasting relationships with their patients, ultimately leading to greater success in their practices. TAKEAWAYS Mastering patient enrollment is crucial for dental success. Burnout often occurs around 15 years into a dental career. The patient experience begins before they enter the practice. Virtual consultations can significantly enhance patient engagement. Building trust is essential for patient retention. Technology can streamline the patient consultation process.
