In this episode, Gabe Alves discusses the challenges faced in asset management due to a lack of human engagement and introduces a unique solution, EXTAG. The software engages users by providing tags for locations or assets that can be scanned to collect and visualize data. Gabe shares insights into the mindset of founders, emphasizing the importance of thinking about the selling aspect early on. He suggests that validating a product through sales before its actual development can lead to better outcomes.   Problem: There was little human engagement with asset management. Solution: Created software that engages with people differently, they provide tags that can be put on locations or assets. Which then can be scanned to collect data and be visualized.   One big piece of advice: Most founders are product people who want to solve a problem, but they think about the selling part later. If you can sell a product and get validation before you have it, then it will be better.

Problem: There are nearly limitless choices for creating systems and the technology, software and apps you can use to power them. And, those choices and technology are rapidly advancing and changing, especially with the introduction of AI. GET IN TOUCH

Many students are suffering in mainstream education and looking for ways to path their future. The School Education Act was last reviewed in 1999 and can take up to 5 or more years to see change, it is too slow. Problem: There are plenty of programs for academically talented young people, people who need extra social care and engagement, and people with disabilities but nothing for students who fall outside of this bell curve. Students who show creativity, are neurodiverse or challenge the system. Solution: IDEA create co-designed programs for each student, providing integrated learning and real-world experience. They understand what is going through young people's heads and how big their career decisions are.

The Problem: There are no silver bullets, but there is a cheat code. Today, let's talk about career progression, from the perspective of three engineering managers. What it means to advance when there are different tracks to explore, what it takes to get that next level, and what managers (i.e we) look for when recommending you for a promotion.

When Dr. Ashley Walker (University of Oregon) began to study sex differences with vascular aging and cognitive decline, she and her team went to the literature for guidance on research study design to account for the confounding variable of estrous cycle in young female mice. Problem: There were no recommendations in the literature. Solution: The Walker Lab got to work. In our latest episode, Dr. Amanda LeBlanc (University of Louisville) interviews lead author Dr. Ashley Walker and first author Ms. Mackenzie Kehmeier (University of Oregon), along with expert Dr. Sarah Lindsey (Tulane University) about the novel study by Kehmeier et al. – the first of its kind – to show that the impact of estrogen on vascular stiffness changes with each day of the female mouse estrous cycle. The authors found that estrous phase was associated with lower in vivo large artery stiffness in mice, but ex vivo resistance artery endothelial function was not different between estrous cycle phases. Kehmeier et al. determined that estrogen receptor expression is modulated by the estrous cycle in an artery dependent manner, which means that estrous cycle phase in young female mice should be considered when measuring in vivo arterial stiffness. What techniques do the authors recommend for other investigators to best determine accurate staging of the estrous cycle? Listen to find out.   Mackenzie N. Kehmeier, Bradley R. Bedell, Abigail E.

Problem:There is a fundamental disconnect between the finance community and energy efficiency. The Mission Efficiency Financing Charette was convened to undo this disconnect. The charette brought together two groups: the world's finance community (private sector, development banks, philanthropic organisations, climate finance facilities, etc.) and the projects and initiatives.Key message:To address current gaps and facilitate commitments to work together to redefine investing in energy efficiency projects and launch an energy efficiency market readiness initiative at COP27.Speakers: Gabriela Prate Dias, Steven Kukoda, Brian DeanSupport: Aristeidis Tsakirishttps://c2e2.unepdtu.org/kms_object/energy-efficiency-financing-podcast/

When you see tiny pink dumbbells, what is your first thought? While these tiny pink dumbbells can have their utility in the world of post-rehab or muscular endurance, the marketing messages surrounding these hand weights are incredibly problematic. In today's episode, my good friend Nikki Naab-Levy and I are breaking down the problem with the overall message surrounding tiny pink dumbbells in fitness marketing. Key Takeaways If You Are Sick of Seeing Tiny Pink Dumbbells, You Should: Remember that just because you are a woman it does not mean you are not capable or are too fragile to be strong Stop worrying about getting bulky or comparing yourself to people on Instagram Find your weight sweet spot and focus on using an adequate amount of weight that is right for you Calling Out Problematic Marketing with Nikki Naab-Levy Nikki Naab-Levy is a strength and nutrition coach who has been involved in multiple arenas in the fitness industry for the last 17 years. She helps women move, build strength, improve mobility, move beyond injury, and find a sustainable approach to nutrition. She is passionate about having the unscripted and messy conversations necessary to help women get stronger and call attention to the problematic marketing in the world of fitness and beyond. Pink Is Not the Problem There is nothing wrong with expressing your femininity and working out in a way that suits you. However, you need to ask yourself if your tool fits the application. We all have the autonomy to decide how we want to lift weights or exercise; the problem comes when we allow marketers to lie to women about how they can achieve their goals using insufficient methods. Strength training, real strength training, is all about using smart programming and an appropriate amount of weight to get stronger over time, not ‘to get toned and flexible' by using weights designed to keep women in a small mindset. The Weaponization of Femininity The marketing of tiny pink dumbbells says that women shouldn't get too bulky and that they need to lift petite things because they are fragile. This is simply not true, and this brainwashing keeps women from experiencing their full abilities and capacities for getting stronger.  The weaponization of femininity has a range of negative implications that we are honestly just sick of. If your goal is to get progressively stronger over time, you need to take a step back and analyze the messages that are being directed toward you as a woman who lifts. How do you believe the marketing of fitness impacts your decisions regarding your routine? Share your thoughts with me in the comments on the episode page. In This Episode What is really behind the marketing of tiny pink dumbbells (9:12) Why we need to stop lying to women about how they can achieve their fitness desires (15:14) How to address a lack of lifting results and find your weight sweet spot (20:41) The difference between something that makes you stronger and strength training (27:23) Unpack the implication behind the messaging of tiny pink dumbbells (39:25) Quotes “It is amazing that we live in a day and age where tiny pink dumbbells need an entire podcast conversation, but they do! Because they are so prevalent in marketing and the marketing in what they can and cannot do for you in no way matches the reality of what you would actually want to use them for.” (7:21) “Strength is a continuum. There is a lot of confusion about what you are trying to achieve and what is the best use of the thing that you are doing.” (21:05) “Scratch below the surface of why you are buying something or why you are following someone or why you are doing something, because there is underlying science and utility in each of the modalities, and if you are going to choose something, choose something that actually has an application.” (38:32) “When we make choices for ourselves, we need to step back and be logical and look beyond the marketing, I think that is my whole thing. The tiny pink dumbbell is fine, it can have its utility, just stop calling it strength training and stop saying it will make you toned because it freakin won't.” (39:15) “I still have capabilities that go far beyond what I thought I could do when I was in the box of the tiny pink dumbbell when I was in the world of the tiny pink dumbbell.” (44:36) Featured on the Show Join Strength Nutrition Unlocked Nikki Naab-Levy Website Results Not Typical Podcast Strength for Hypermobility Free Resources Follow Nikki on Instagram Check out the full show notes here!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3QWIxElEnc8 (Dr. K on motivation) (CW for problematic language in linked video, probably) Problem: There's stuff you have to do but just don't want to do Solution: Figuring out why I do want to do something works way better for me than just pushing through, trying to convince or cajole myself, or "waiting until motivation strikes" When there's something I really need to do, it usually comes with rewards or consequences. This means I can have a conversation where I actually talk myself through my thoughts, motivations, and underlying assumptions - without actually pressuring myself or trying to "talk myself into it" by instead just asking questions and getting curious. Once I give up on the story that "I don't want to do this" (which is untrue anyway, since I want to gain the reward or avoid the consequence), it becomes much easier to get started. And when there's something that I don't need to do, but am just pushing it on myself because of societal expectation - like folding laundry - I just don't do it. I'm a grown adult which means that nobody gets to say how things work in my house but me. (Well...me and my partner, who knows how to fold his own clothes because he's also a grown up) But that also means that there's nobody to do the things I want done but me (and again, my partner.) If having the dishes piled up is stressing me out, and I want them washed and put away, then I necessarily want to wash the dishes - since there's no other way for them to get washed. And I care about myself and want to do nice things to take care of me. Realizing that there's a difference between being motivated to do something, and being inspired to do it, has made it easy for me to give up on waiting for that feeling because I know there's nothing inspiring about doing housework. Simply the motivation that is the reward of having a house that is nice to exist in can be enough.

Pastor Mitchell CruitHosea 4:1-19This text is tailored to teach us that God judges unfaithfulness even when unfaithfulness is a result of ignorance. I. The Problem: There is no integrity, love, or knowledge of God among his people. (v. 1-3)II. The Source of the Problem: God's Word is not faithfully taught by the leaders of God's people. (v. 4-8)III. The Consequences of the Problem    a. God's people become like their leaders and are punished for it. (v. 9)    b. God's people are not satisfied by their unfaithfulness. (v. 10-11)    c. God's people go to the wrong sources for knowledge. (v. 12)    d. God's people are given over to their passions. (v. 13-14)IV. A Commendable Response to the Problem: Keep your distance from professing Christians and churches who do not revere God's Word and are comfortable in their ignorance. (v.15-19)V. The good news is that Jesus desires to forgive us in our ignorance and has already done what is necessary to make forgiveness possible.VI. Questions for Reflection    1. Is knowledge of God leading you to faithfully live for God?    2. How can you contribute to a church culture that values the faithful teaching of God's Word?    3. Are there people in your life or churches you're familiar with that you need to be careful around because although they profess Christ, they are not seeking to apply God's Word to all of life?    4. How do Jesus' words from the cross “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do” encourage you?>>click here to listen or right-click to download

The Problem: There were Legitimate Business Reasons, but we regret everything anyway. With a title like this one, how can we not make it to the top of Hacker News? This episode we discuss all the reasons you might not want to go down the Microservices route, and then tell you how to do it anyway. There's a lot of things to think about when you're on this journey, and we've gone ahead and made all the mistakes so you don't have to. Plus, listen to the end to hear our collective shame about one time we all really buggered things up by trying to Standardise All The Things. Ah, simpler times...

Problem:There is a significant difference in perception of indoor thermal comfort between men and women, with men demonstrating a strong preference lower temperatures than women, sometimes referred to as the ‘battle of the thermostat’. Research discussed in this episode shows that there is also a notable impact on productivity and cognitive performance, with women performing better at high temperatures than at low temperatures. At the same time in most modern office space, the settings for the indoor temperature are based on the physical characteristics of male occupants.Key message:Gender-specific responses of occupants to the indoor temperature should be taken into account, when designing temperature settings for gender mixed workplaces in order to increase productivity by setting the thermostat higher than current standards.Speakers: Ksenia Petrichenko, Agne KajackaiteSupport: Aristeidis Tsakirishttps://c2e2.unepdtu.org/kms_object/battle-for-the-thermostat-energy-efficiency-and-gender-podcast/

At Creation Studios, we help you create effective content that makes the world respond.Why is content important for companies?The Problem: There are tons of REALLY cool companies out there that no one has ever heard of! And they are run by some really cool people, who passionately care about what they do for their clients.Why haven't we heard of these companies/people?Two things can happen (sometimes at the same time):The company is just communicating facts. This is common for big companies. Their marketing is more of a presentation of facts. ex. We take photos. … So you want to work with us? NO!Their message isn't clear. (Externally… or internally)This means that the business itself hasn't taken the time to discover their “WHY” or just isnt communicating it. Either way its a problem. For this… We would love to step in with our process, but another great one that we had to do ourselves is a retreat, where we all got together, read Building a Story Brand, and discussed it for 2 days.What should these companies do to start engaging with their audience?Story Brand plug:We actually believe that we've been doing this for a long time, but Donald Miller is the first to write about it as clearly as we (all of humanity) know it.The idea is it starts with a hero, who has a problem, and you (the guide, NOT the hero) give them a process to reach success.Grab the book, it's worth the $13 on amazon.Our Process: Every company has a process.

Are you stuck in a rut? Feel like your agency isn't going anywhere? Are you full of strategies but lacking in execution? Ever feel like you're stuck on an endless hamster wheel? It might be that you're in your own way and it's time to dig a little deeper. Your biggest obstacle might be all the trash in your own head. A change in mindset and thoughts can be a critical step towards growing your agency. In today's episode, we'll cover: What is head trash? The problems caused by head trash. 3 ways to take out the (head) trash and change your mindset so you can grow your agency. Today, I talked with Erin Pheil founder of MindFix — a group dedicated to eliminating self-sabotage in entrepreneurs and high-performers. Before she founded MindFix, Erin spent 16 years hustling at her own digital agency, FollowBright, so she totally gets the struggles of agency life. She's here with a wealth of experience and savvy techniques to teach us how to overcome our own mental barriers. Once you get out of your own way, you'll be on a better trajectory to grow your agency faster and easier. What Is Head Trash and Why Is It a Problem? There are tons of agency owners out there who have the strategies and the resources they need to become hyper-successful, but they just can't seem to get there. Too often we look towards the latest-and-greatest strategy as a growth pillar but when it doesn't work we get frustrated. Instead, Erin says we should be looking inward at the stories we are telling ourselves. What negative talk or stories are you telling yourself? "All my clients just beat us up on price and don't appreciate our value." "Our clients don't care about us, they treat us like a commodity." All of these stories we have in our heads are what Erin calls head trash. Basically, head trash is the loops and patterns we fall into due to previous exposure to situations. All of these stories impact the way we deal with our every day and often times causing turmoil. For example, let's say you used to work at a call center and you had one of those robotic scripts you had to say on every call. You couldn't stand the script; you felt it was turning away customers because it was so poorly written. Fast forward to today. You run a marketing agency and you're considering using a chatbot as a pre-qualifier for new leads. You have the resources and the strategy, but you don't pull the trigger because you believe scripted conversations aren't effective for gaining new customers. That is head trash. Head trash is the stuff that stands in our way -- and it's the stuff we can actually control. It's so much easier to overcome than we realize, but most of us don't even know or understand why it exists. Head trash can cause your agency to stall, cost you clients or stand in your way of fulfilling your profession or personal potential. 3 Ways to Take Out the (Head) Trash How do you clear all of this programming out of your head? 1. Stop and Think! Next time someone does something that doesn't sit right with you, think first instead of reacting. Why are they doing this? What are some reasons for this behavior? Are there external circumstances that may cause this? Once you learn how to think about every possible scenario in your encounters with others, you'll also begin to think about your own behavior in this same way. You'll be able to dissect your own hang-ups and understand the underlying stories you're telling yourself. (From the earlier example... Why don't you like chatbots? Is it because of that call center experience? Bingo!) 2. Think Neutral. You want to remove emotion from your decisions. If you start to feel emotion when you're making a decision that should be rational, try to figure out why. There's a root cause of every emotion; if you want to remove the head trash the key is getting to the bottom of the emotion. 3. Don't Jump to Conclusions. This is huge! Preconceived notions can kill a good idea before it even launches. For example, don't assume your chatbot won't work before you even test it. Don't be afraid to try, test, or fail. Failure is the key to future successes. If you're jumping to conclusions all the time, you have some serious head trash you need to deal with.
