    The Worst Deodorant BRANDS! Dr. G's Deodorant Product Review #374

    In this episode of Heal Thyself, I dive deep into the hidden dangers of deodorants—specifically the presence of PFAS, also known as “forever chemicals.” A recent study by Mamavation (March 2025) revealed that 40% of tested deodorants contained PFAS, with some brands showing shockingly high levels—Little Seed Farm came in at 103 ppm. I break down which brands passed and failed PFAS testing and explain why this matters—PFAS can be absorbed through the thin skin of the underarm, leading to serious health issues like cancer, infertility, and thyroid dysfunction. I also share actionable detox strategies you can use right now, including sweating regularly, taking binders, staying hydrated, and supporting your liver. I strongly recommend avoiding the following brands due to PFAS concerns: Little Seed Farm, doTERRA, Dr Teal's, Lume, Hello, Kopari, and Secret. Instead, here are some safer deodorant alternatives I trust: Bello Tallow, Primally Pure, Pretty Frank, and Truvani. Don't forget to check your product labels for synthetic fragrances, aluminum salts, and other toxic ingredients. #deodorant #toxic #productreview ==== Thank You To Our Sponsors!

    What happens when tools like Jira, Confluence, Loom, and AI-powered agents come together under one unified strategy? At Team 25 in Anaheim, I sat down with Sanchan Saxena, Atlassian's Head of Product for Work Management, to explore the company's new Teamwork Collection and what it means for the evolving nature of collaboration. With leadership experience at Coinbase, Airbnb, Instagram, and Microsoft, Sanchan brings a pragmatic lens to building products that meet teams where they are. In our conversation, we unpack the thinking behind the Teamwork Collection, a curated set of Atlassian tools designed to help teams work more seamlessly while delivering real, measurable outcomes. This isn't about adding more tools to the stack. It's about reducing the noise and giving teams a single, integrated space to plan, document, and communicate with clarity. We also explore how AI is being used to reduce manual overhead, surface relevant information faster, and make daily tasks feel less like busywork. Sanchan shares practical examples of how companies are already using these tools to boost productivity, make meetings more actionable, and give teams back valuable time. For leaders focused on change management or wrestling with tool adoption, there are actionable insights here on overcoming cultural friction and designing for long-term success. Recorded live at Team 25, this conversation reflects a broader shift in how work is organized and supported. Whether you're in IT, product, operations, or leadership, this episode offers a look at how Atlassian is building for the future of work—one where humans and AI collaborate without the chaos. How are you designing your workflows to stay ahead of that curve? Let's continue the conversation.

    Richard Brenner: Hypothesis-Driven Product Ownership, The Experimental Mindset Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. The Great Product Owner: The Experimenter Richard describes great Product Owners as "experimenters" who understand that everything they do is a hypothesis requiring validation. The best POs establish feedback loops early, actively engage with users and clients, and approach product development with a scientific mindset. Richard shares an experience working with a "coaching PO" who excelled at involving everyone in defining what needed to be done.  This PO was inspiring and helped the team participate in both building and decision-making processes. Richard emphasizes that the relationship between PO and team must be a true partnership—not hierarchical—for success to occur. Great POs facilitate team involvement rather than dictating direction, creating an environment where collaborative problem-solving thrives. In this segment, we refer to the Role Expectation Matrix Retrospective, and the Product Owner Sprint Checklist, a hands-on coaching tool for anyone interested in helping PO's prepare and lead successful Sprints with their teams. The Bad Product Owner: The Tech Visionary Disconnected from Users Richard recounts working with a high-level sponsor, a medical doctor interested in technology, who hired multiple development teams (up to four Scrum teams) to build a product. While technically knowledgeable, this PO had very concrete ideas about both the technology and solution based on assumptions about client needs.  The team developed impressive technology, including a domain-specific language (DSL), and felt they were performing well—until they delivered to actual clients. Only then did they discover users couldn't effectively use the software, requiring a complete rethinking of the UX concept. This experience taught Richard the critical distinction between the customer (the sponsor/PO) and the actual end users, demonstrating how even technically sophisticated Product Owners can miss essential user needs without proper validation. Self-reflection Question: How might you help Product Owners in your organization balance their vision with the practical realities of user needs and feedback?

Sean has a name and domain for his new product - Margins and is letting the Miscreants team handle the branding. Links:Andrew's Twitter: @AndrewAskinsAndrew's website: https://www.andrewaskins.com/MetaMonster: https://metamonster.ai/Sean's Twitter: @seanqsunMiscreants: http://miscreants.com/Margins: http://margins.so/Sean's website: https://seanqsun.com/For more information about the podcast, check out https://www.smalleffortspod.com/.Transcript:00:01.15SeanWhat up, what up, what up?00:02.64AndrewI got some stats for you.00:04.12SeanYeah, tell me. Hit me. but yeah We should probably give some context first.00:08.26AndrewAll right. So Thursday night, Wednesday night, Thursday night, Friday night, some night, there was a night last week when, I lured Sean into giving me a bunch of free consulting advice, in under the pretense of let's cowork and like work on things side by side.00:11.90SeanI don't know. I can't remember. One of the nights. Uh-huh.00:26.76AndrewAnd instead I just like for three hours was like, what do you think about this cold email idea? What do you think about this cold email idea?00:34.37SeanWe co-worked. We co-worked on your cold emails. You didn't lie to me.00:41.45AndrewFair, fair. I'll take it. I'll take it. So got some cold emails spun up. I knew this was something I wanted to do again now that the product was live. And it's early, early days, but i have, I've sent 200 emails.00:57.98AndrewAnd so I have some early results and01:00.84SeanDo we want to tell everyone what the five different emails were?01:05.39AndrewYeah, I narrowed it down to four after day one. I just canceled. There were two that were almost identical. And so I just killed one of them.01:12.61SeanOkay.01:13.75AndrewProbably shouldn't have, but like I'm incredibly impatient and no, no, it wasn't one of the ones that affects your bets.01:16.85SeanDoes it affect my bets? Oh, good, good, good. Sweet. That's what matters.01:22.88AndrewOkay.01:23.01SeanOkay, go.01:24.34AndrewYeah, yeah, yeah. So we've got four cold email templates. going these are meta monster cold email templates if that isn't blatantly obvious first one is just like classic sales email the uh the subject line is ai powered screaming frog and then it's just like hey i built this thing do you want to demo it i want to sell it to you classic sales uh sales pitch second one01:45.84SeanYep. Yep.01:52.92Andrewis almost the exact same, only instead of presenting it as a sales pitch, presenting it as, hey, I'm looking for feedback, which is true. i At this stage, I just want feedback and information, especially on our pricing, which I want to talk about later. Third one is one of your ideas that you pitched me, which is kind of like Try to write... i think your your pitch was try to write your cold email like you're writing a newsletter.02:25.14AndrewSo try to write it so that you're teaching the recipient something and then just also happen to be have to have this product that is connected to the thing you're teaching that you want but to try to sell.02:39.34AndrewAnd then the the fourth one was more of like a... Classic kind of growth hacky play, which is, hey, I want to interview you for our blog.02:55.21AndrewAnd so you and I placed a bet on this. Your bet, what did you bet?02:57.76SeanYep.02:59.95SeanSo I bet that the AI powered Screaming Frog, the first one, the traditional sales email would have the most opens because not because I believe in those, but because specifically AI powered Screaming Frog alternative is just a great subject header.03:04.78AndrewYep.03:07.11AndrewYep.03:09.83AndrewYeah.03:16.15Seanand then i also bet that the one that would bring you the most value quote unquote whatever that however we want to define that and is the newsletter one value isn't like you know someone actually demos most qualified leads basically you bet uh that the interview one would have the most opens and replies but the most valuable responses would come from the feedback yeah the feedback letter and whoever wins the other person to buy that the other person the up03:23.39AndrewYes. Yeah.03:37.69AndrewYes.03:44.46SeanThe loser has to buy the winner on Chick-fil-A.03:46.44AndrewYep.03:47.24SeanSo the stakes are high.03:47.32AndrewAll right. are you03:48.38SeanIt depends.03:48.87Andrewwhen are When are we cutting off the results, by the way? What's...03:51.67SeanWhat are the results that?03:54.65AndrewSo, currently, in fourth place in open rates, and tied for lowest response rate, I think.04:03.73Andrewoh i There's an asterisk on response rates that I'll explain later.04:06.58SeanOK.04:09.17AndrewNewsletter.04:10.39SeanOh, damn.04:11.29AndrewBut all of these have gotten crazy good open rates for cold email.04:16.19SeanOK.04:16.80AndrewThat is the lowest open rate at a 42% open rate so far.04:20.22SeanWhat's the highest?04:21.26AndrewHighest, I'm sorry to say, is the interview. Is the interview request at a 62% open rate.04:27.67Seanpretty good.04:30.75Andrew62 is pretty damn good. No replies on that one, though. No replies, no clicks that I can tell. no No interest coming out of that. So my guess is people are, like, opening it and then going, this is some no-name company that's trying to, you know, sell me something.04:45.44SeanRight, right.04:46.35Andrewi don't care about this.04:48.41SeanOkay.04:48.85AndrewThat would be my guess. I have booked two demos.04:57.58SeanOkay.04:58.43AndrewAnd have gotten direct feedback on our pricing from a third person who may still has expressed interest in booking a third demo.05:06.39SeanAnd this is from what? Which email?05:08.61AndrewSo here's the thing. One of them I don't know.05:12.15SeanOkay.05:12.74AndrewWhich sounds dumb. It's like, how could you not know? It seems like instantly missed the tracking. And I have had a... damn hard time figuring out i know the email but i've had a damn hard time figuring out which version they got sent uh in instantly software i think maybe if i paid for their crm version i'd be able to like track all of the the activity in more detail but i'm not paying for their crm right now and so it's like it yeah05:24.81SeanYeah.05:30.07SeanGotcha.05:36.24SeanProbably, yeah.05:40.51Seanand Unless, unless Incidentally wants to sponsor us, because we're both users.05:45.04AndrewTrue.05:45.50SeanYeah.05:46.06AndrewSo all I see ri...

    What happens when one of the world's most loved productivity tools decides to reinvent itself for the age of AI? At Team 25 in Anaheim, I sat down with Gaurav Kataria, Head of Product for Trello at Atlassian, to unpack the biggest release in Trello's history and what it means for individuals and teams navigating the chaos of modern work. Gaurav describes the new Trello as “an AI-powered to-do list,” built not to replace project management tools like Jira but to complement them—especially for those personal tasks, scattered action items, and mental notes that get lost in a sea of email, Slack messages, and SaaS app notifications. With half a million users opting into the beta within 48 hours of launch, it's clear that the new direction is resonating. In our conversation, we explore how Atlassian is using AI to enhance, not overwhelm, individual productivity—by capturing inputs from everywhere, organizing them intelligently, and helping users block time visually with integrations into Google and Microsoft calendars. This isn't about automating your life; it's about giving you clarity and control without friction. We also talk about how Trello remains deeply personal. From list colors to card covers and mobile widgets, the design philosophy centers on reducing cognitive load and sparking focus. Trello isn't trying to be a super app. It's trying to be the app that respects your mental model, works the way your brain works, and empowers you to get meaningful work done on your own terms. If you're overwhelmed by task sprawl or skeptical of AI's growing role in daily workflows, this episode offers a grounded look at what thoughtful, user-centered innovation looks like in action. How do you strike the balance between simplicity, automation, and human creativity? Let's explore that together.

    In this conversation, Dr. Aaron T. Dossey discusses the surprising amount of land clearing around the globe for agriculture and its detrimental effects on the environment, including biodiversity loss and climate change. The solution, according to our guest, is insect protein as a sustainable alternative to traditional livestock because of the efficiency and nutritional benefits of growing insects for food. Dr. Dossey shares his journey into the field of entomophagy, detailing how he transitioned from a passion for insects to founding All Things Bugs LLC where he focuses on the commercialization of insect-based food products. In this conversation, Dr. Aaron T. Dossey discusses the challenges of the insect protein market, the processing techniques he developed, the hurdles faced in scaling production, and the importance of consumer acceptance.

For example I see usually around 1% water use compared to beef, or something in that range.”"Insects are complete proteins, unlike many plants.""We need to scale up sustainable technologies quickly.""We need to reduce beef and dairy consumption.""We are the R&D labs for major food manufacturers." LinksDr Aaron T Dossey on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/aarontdossey/All Things Bugs - https://allthingsbugs.com/All Things Bugs on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/allthingsbugs/All Things Bugs on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/AllthingsbugsAll Things Bugs on X - https://x.com/AllThingsBugsAll Things Bugs on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/user/AllThingsBugsAll Things Bugs on TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@allthingsbugsAll Things Bugs: Leader in Insects as a Sustainable Bioresource - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CgGWStYQC_YBugs In Space: Biomimicry Solution for Sustainable Food on the Moon, Mars and Earth - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vp0S-Gfk_tAInsects as Sustainable Food Ingredients (Book) - https://shop.elsevier.com/books/insects-as-sustainable-food-ingredients/dossey/978-0-12-802856-8Invertebrate Studies Institute - https://isibugs.org/Invertebrate Studies Institute on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/isibugs/Invertebrate Studies Institute on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/InvertebrateStudiesInstitute/Invertebrate Studies Institute on X - https://x.com/ISIBugsInvertebrate Studies Institute Research Video - https://vimeo.com/user48219928Griopro (Ingredient) - https://griopro.com/Some videos:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CgGWStYQC_Yhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vp0S-Gfk_tAhttps://vimeo.com/user48219928…Brands for a Better World Episode Archive - http://brandsforabetterworld.com/Brands for a Better World on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/brand-for-a-better-world/Modern Species - https://modernspecies.com/Modern Species on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/modern-species/Gage Mitchell on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/gagemitchell/…Print Magazine Design Podcasts - https://www.printmag.com/categories/printcast/…Heritage Radio Network - https://heritageradionetwork.org/Heritage Radio Network on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/heritage-radio-network/posts/Heritage Radio Network on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/HeritageRadioNetworkHeritage Radio Network on X - https://x.com/Heritage_RadioHeritage Radio Network on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/heritage_radio/Heritage Radio Network on Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@heritage_radio

    Ryan is the Head of Product at Stabull Finance, a Stablecoin and tokenized RWA DEX on Ethereum and Polygon. Stabull Finance is the new home for non-USD, fiat-backed stablecoins and tokenized real-world assets, providing crypto and forex traders with access to 24/7/365 FX markets. Why you should listen Stabull is a next-generation Decentralized Exchange (DEX) built to become the central source of liquidity for all local stablecoins and tokenized Real World Assets (RWAs). Stabull Finance addresses a critical, underserved niche within the expanding DeFi landscape - to provide a specialized, efficient, secure platform for swapping non-USD stablecoins and tokenized real-world assets. Stabull uses a 4th Generation AMM designed for the nuances of stablecoin and RWA swaps. This builds upon the lessons learned from previous AMM models. Its core innovation lies in how it dynamically concentrates liquidity around an off-chain FX or commodity oracle price. Stabull's AMM is described as “proactive”. Instead of passively waiting for arbitrage traders to correct price differences between Stabull and other markets (which drains value from LPs), Stabull actively uses the oracle feed to keep its internal pricing aligned, providing better rates for traders and protecting LPs. It strikes a balance, avoiding the pitfalls of a purely flat curve (vulnerable to oracle manipulation or draining if the peg breaks) while still offering much better pricing than general-purpose AMMs for its target assets.
