Amanda Calabrese was a middle schooler at a swim meet when she got her period for the first time. Her team captain told her to figure it out in thirty minutes or she was off the relay. That moment stuck with her all the way to Stanford, where she met her future co-founder Greta Meyer and started sketching what would become Sequel, the first tampon redesign in nearly a hundred years. On this episode of She Pivots, Amanda talks about the four-year fight to get a tiny piece of cotton past the FDA, why she treats the tampon as game-day equipment rather than something to whisper about, and how Sequel landed in locker rooms from middle schools to Audi Field, Yankees Stadium, and the Indiana Fever. Now a nine-time champion turned product design engineer, Amanda is on a mission to change how period care is talked about in sports and in every space where women show up to compete.

In 2024, the world generated an estimated 120 million metric tons of textile waste.That's the equivalent of every person on Earth throwing away about 33 pounds of clothing and other textiles in a single year. If it's easier to picture, 33 pounds- that's equivalent to roughly 30 to 50 pieces of clothing per person in a single year.And the vast majority of those textiles will never become new textiles. Most ultimately end up in landfills or are incinerated.But, like I just did a few moments ago, we often talk about textile waste through the lens of fashion. Strictly the clothes we wear every day.The problem is that this textile problem extends far beyond our closets. It includes textiles used in furniture, carpets, cars, footwear—and yes, that includes outdoor gear and even our pet products like our dog's harness. It's easy to hear this and think the solution is simply to buy less. And while our purchasing decisions do matter, the bigger issue is one of design and production. If products are built to fail, impossible to repair, or quickly replaced by new versions, waste is baked into the system from the start.So what happens when a company takes the opposite approach? What if, when designing a product, it isn't just about selling more of it, but about keeping it in use for years?In episode 227 of the Outdoor Minimalist podcast, I sat down with Monica Broder, Product Design Manager, and Pete Kearns, Head of Product at Ruffwear. The brand we know and love for designing equipment to help us and our dogs explore the outdoors together.Together, we discuss how they designed their Front Range Flex Harness for performance, to reduce manufacturing waste, and to extend its post-consumer life.

For decades, designers were told to “shrink it and pink it” when it comes to products for women, ignoring their different needs and leading to missed opportunities, discomfort or even injury. On this episode, we meet two women exposing gender bias in product design and who are working to eliminate it from our world – from the office to the soccer pitch and even in space.

In some ways, Wingspan Pocket is one of our smallest games. It's only around 6x4x2 inches, it only takes 30 minutes to play, and it asks each player to manage only 1 row of bird cards. Yet by another metric it is our biggest game, as there are 175,000 units in the first English print run, by far the most in our 14-year history. With that much at stake, we really, really needed to get it right. https://stonemaiergames.com/elevating-wingspan-pocket-ppc-product-design-playtests/

Send us Fan MailDaniel Kurnianto has built his career at the intersection of mechatronics, lab automation, product management, and hands-on mechanical design. With more than 19 years at Formulatrix, he has led and contributed to the development of high-precision life science instruments, including crystallography and liquid-handling platforms used in research and pharmaceutical environments. His experience spans full product lifecycle work: concept development, detailed engineering, injection-molded consumables, motion control, fluidics, manufacturing, assembly, field support, and global customer deployment. At Formulatrix, Daniel's work has included products like the NT8 Drop Setter and the F.A.S.T. Liquid Handling Platform, where he has combined deep technical fluency with product and team leadership. His background includes micro-scale injection molding, positive displacement liquid handling, fluidic manifolds, precision mechanisms, embedded systems, and DFMEA/GD&T-driven design reviews. That combination gives him a rare perspective: he is not only thinking about whether a design works in CAD, but whether it can be manufactured, assembled, maintained, supported, demonstrated, and improved over time. Outside of Formulatrix, Daniel is the inventor and founder of BOSeTAMPER, a handheld automatic electronic espresso tamper designed and engineered in Boston. The product is described as compact, battery powered, portable, and designed to deliver consistent, repeatable tamping pressure without requiring baristas or home users to apply that force manually. BOSeTAMPER won a Red Dot Product Design Award in 2024, and the public BOSeTAMPER site now highlights the availability of the new 3rd Generation 58mm PRO model with wireless charging and a travel case. For this episode, Daniel will take us inside the engineering journey behind the new 3rd Generation BOSeTAMPER. Rather than just talking about the finished product, the conversation will explore what changed from earlier versions, why some designs that look impressive on paper may not be the right designs for production, and how Daniel thinks about simplifying a product so it becomes faster, cheaper, and easier to machine, assemble, ship, and support. Daniel also brings a provocative engineering point of view from his work in high-end lab automation: in some systems, he cares more about precision than accuracy. That idea opens the door to a deeper discussion about real-world instrumentation, repeatability, customer expectations, cost, manufacturing reality, and how experienced engineers decide what matters most when a product has to survive outside the lab, outside the CAD screen, and in the hands of real users.

It's time to wax on, wax off as Daniel Sanchez Griborio joins us to talk about his lifelong love of karate. He describes how his parents enrolled him at age five, and how the structure and rigor created a sense of belonging. Daniel explains karate's core philosophy of seeking perfection while understanding it's unattainable, and how focusing on incremental progress sustained him through five consecutive years of losing in the first round of nationals before finally winning at age 17. He talks about karate becoming an anchor and a reminder that "what you put in, you get out," shaping how he approaches everything from work to parenting.Guest BioDaniel Sanchez Griborio (he/him) is a design leader at Scotiabank and a lead instructor in User Experience Design at BrainStation. With over 15 years of experience in various design roles, he has held positions such as Director of Product Design and Senior Manager of User Experience at Scotiabank, guiding the creation of user-centric digital banking solutions. Daniel has also contributed to organizations like The Felt Store and TD, where he has focused on enhancing design strategies and e-commerce experiences. He possesses a passion for empowering future designers with industry insights and real-world applications.LinksDaniel on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/danielsanchezgriborio/Daniel on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/therealdanielsan/CreditsCover design by Raquel Breternitz.
This week on Catalyst, Tammy is joined by Cal Thompson, designer, product advisor, artist and mindfulness teacher with over 15 years of experience in human-centered design. Cal most recently served as VP of Product Design and Research at Headspace, where they led both a design team and a scientific research team through the company's expansion from a meditation app into a full mental health platform. Cal explains how growing up gay in the south impacted how they see design and makes a strong business case for incorporating accessibility into all products and designs. They also explore why the design toolkit is more critical in the AI era than ever before, and why vibe coding without domain expertise risks producing what Cal calls "feature slop." They also dig into the attention economy and how mindfulness is quietly becoming a radical act in a world engineered to capture your focus.Please note that the views expressed may not necessarily be those of NTT DATALinks: Cal Thompson Headspace Future London Academy Center for Humane TechnologyGreenway Institute Learn more about Launch by NTT DATASee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We are joined by a guest whose career is a testament to the power of reinvention and the discipline of mastery. Before he was a titan in the manufacturing world, he was a professional guitarist. When a hand injury cut his music career short, he didn't see a setback—he saw a turning point. He took the resilience, pattern recognition, and focus required to master an instrument and applied it to the world of entrepreneurship. Tom Kubiniec is the Founder and CEO of SecureIt, a U.S.-based manufacturing company that designs and produces innovative secure storage systems for consumers, military, and institutional clients. Before building SecureIt, Tom was a professional guitarist. His music career was cut short due to a hand injury — a turning point that forced him to reinvent himself professionally. Rather than viewing it as a setback, Tom used the experience as a catalyst to transition into manufacturing and entrepreneurship. The discipline of mastering an instrument, performing under pressure, and recovering from adversity shaped the resilience, pattern recognition, and long-term thinking he now brings to business leadership. Under his direction, SecureIt has become a category leader by challenging conventional industry thinking and focusing relentlessly on product design, operational discipline, and customer responsibility. Over the past year, Tom made several bold operational decisions — including eliminating his internal marketing department — while achieving 66% year-over-year sales growth. He credits this performance not to aggressive promotion, but to disciplined execution, product clarity, and conviction in long-term strategy. Outside of business, Tom prioritizes time with his family and regularly disconnects outdoors. He believes physical discipline, recovery, and intentional time away from work directly sharpen leadership focus and decision-making. Tom brings a unique blend of creativity, operational rigor, and founder resilience — offering practical insights for entrepreneurs navigating reinvention, growth, and leadership.

Engineering teams are building ten times — even a hundred times — more than they could two years ago. That's a win, but one not without challenges. Because the cost of building the right thing has climbed exponentially. In this episode of the ServiceNow Insights podcast, host Bobby Brill sits down with three leaders who are living this tension from three distinct angles: the content and design leader who first spotted the productivity math problem, the design VP pushing for discernment over speed, and the research lead keeping the human at the center. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━IN THIS EPISODE ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ DAVID HOARE — Group VP, Digital Content & Design, ServiceNow ANAND THARANATHAN — Group VP, Product Research & Insights, ServiceNow DANTLEY DAVIS — SVP of Design, ServiceNow ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ CHAPTERS━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 0:00 Introduction & Guest Intros 1:13 David: The AI Philosophy — ChatGPT as genuine inflection point 3:02 David: Economic viability — why AI unlocks what was never possible before 3:12 Anand: Three-person startups scaling to $100M+ 3:45 Dantley: From 3D Studio Max to Jarvis — AI as human superpower 6:29 Anand: The customer north star hasn't changed 7:10 David: Engineering's survival problem — the 100x production gap 8:32 David: Andrew Ng's PM-to-engineer ratio + the cost of building wrong 9:40 Dantley: Nine concepts in an hour — design velocity and discernment 12:04 Dantley: The hip-hop tastemaker — slowing down as part of the process 14:20 David: Content governance — the fox guarding the hen house 16:21 Anand: Trust and the human-AI system 17:20 Dantley: AI surprise — UI tech stacks, feature completeness & hidden tech debt 20:21 18-Month Close — Anand, Dantley & David ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ KEY TAKEAWAYS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ • Engineering is the first function to see massive AI productivity gains — but that creates a gap every other function has to survive • The cost of building has dropped.

The Advantage of Rapid Prototyping in Wearable MedTech DevelopmentModern cancer treatments are getting better at targeting specific forms of cancer. However, this improved effectiveness often introduces lethal side effects. Skribe Medical is developing wearable technologies to help oncologists monitor and manage these side effects and ultimately improve cancer survivability.In Episode 45 of the MedTech Speed to Data podcast, Key Tech's Andy Rogers has a conversation with Ryan Neely, Skribe Medical's CEO and co-founder, about the startup's approach to rapid prototyping, clinical trials, and wearable technology.Need to knowCancer treatment can be lethal — The most effective drugs often come with black box warnings of harmful and lethal side effects.600,000 US patients are at risk of cardiotoxicity — Toxic drugs damage the heart, leading to complications like arrhythmia and heart failure.Managing cardiotoxicity can delay cancer treatments — Oncologists must now schedule patients for third-party ECG testing, which takes time and delays treatment.The nitty-grittySkribe Medical is developing a wearable ultrasound sensor that detects cardiotoxicity signals for use in oncology clinics. “We have a patch that can be worn to detect cardiotoxicity and really streamline monitoring of heart health,” Neely says. “Rather than an oncologist sending a patient to get a cardiac ultrasound, which could take weeks, the patch can just be placed above the heart for about five minutes. We record a bunch of different signals, pass them through an AI model, and then we can give them either a thumbs up or a thumbs down.”Neely goes on to explain how the in-clinic wearable approach delivers benefits beyond better patient outcomes. “The first device that we're building is intended to be used in the clinic by a nurse or a medical assistant. By the time the doctor is there, you've got your answer.”Designing a wearable device rather than an implant created several advantages for Skribe Medical during its early development. “In a regulated industry like medical devices,” Neely explains, “it's like a little bit of a chicken and egg where people say, ‘we'd like to see some clinical validation' and you're thinking, ‘Well, I don't have a million dollars to fund that.' In a non-invasive device, any opportunity that you can have to test, even if it's this big, bulky thing, you can get some data.”Skribe Medical's technology can extend to other aspects of oncology, including peripartum cardiomyopathy, a rare form of heart failure arising towards the end of a pregnancy. Long-term, Neely envisions building the longitudinal training data needed for predictive monitoring. “What we'd like to do is be able to say, ‘two weeks from now there might be an issue' so you can do something today that prevents any drop [in injection fraction] at all.”Data that made the difference:Skribe Medical's three founders built first prototype at home. They used their home electronics and 3D printing labs to rapidly prototype the first functional sensors.Rapid wearable development delivered data quickly, first by testing themselves and then through clinical testing.Skribe Medical conducted the first clinical tests at an ECG lab where, with consent, the wearable collected patient data for comparison with the patient's ECG results.Having clinical data so early in the process encouraged investors. Last year's pre-seed round raised $1.6 million from angels and VCs to support the next phase of device development and trials.Listen to Andy's conversation with Neely to hear more about Skribe Medical's journey, development process, and the advantages of wearable medical technology.
My old Discord work bestie just got promoted *twice* in one year and I needed to know how he did it without losing himself in the process. Tobi Bisiriyu is a Product Design Manager at Discord and he's one of those rare people who is genuinely great at his job, actually likes it, and still makes work the least interesting thing about him. He cosplays, he goes to anime conventions, he walks one hour every day without exception, and he has a philosophy about life that I think more people in tech need to hear.In this ep, we talk about:→ Why looking competent is actually what's holding junior designers back→ the "contract you write for yourself" and how to know if you're breaching it→ why middle management is actually a "death" trap→ say yes to the scary thing...before you talk yourself out of it.→ being greedy "with integrity" and why it's good to want it all→ and why getting a four in life matters more than getting one at workThis episode is for anyone who is good at their job but wonders if there's a version of success that doesn't require you to give everything else up. Tobi is one of the most intentional people I've ever worked with and somehow he got even more thoughtful since we last worked together.→ Find Tobi on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tobibisiriyuSubmit your Coworker Confessions
Today our hosts talk about their favorite off-label uses for pedals: an Expression Ramper as an expression splitter, a trereo overdrive pedal as a lofi tape machine, a pedal with perfectly spaced knobs as a phone holder, etc. They take calls and some comments from the Discord, all focused around pedal usage that goes beyond the marketing and expectations of the user interface into unexpected sonic corners.

Can a $21 window help a nation survive a war? Harry Blakiston Houston, founder of Insulate Ukraine, joins Grant Gibson for this landmark 150th episode to discuss how a simple double-layer window — made from PET and manufactured entirely in Ukraine — is helping families stay warm, creating local employment, and offering a sense of normality in a country shattered by Russia's invasion.

"We take your favorite games from TV, but we put our own twist on it." Sound design is the most underused tool in escape room design. It's not just for ambiance; it's a feedback system. It tells players what they did, redirects them when they're wrong, and stops them from doing the same wrong thing over and over. Sound design plays a huge role at The Escape Game and Great Big Game Show. Troy Armstrong has two music composition degrees. If you've played Cosmic Crisis, The Depths, or The Rugrats version ofThe Playground, then you've heard some of his work. Troy got his start in the industry as a gamemaster at The Escape Game. One day, he cold-emailed the head of design to "talk about game design" and left with a sound design commission. Today he's Director of Product Design for Great Big Game Show, one of the newest immersive gaming options from The Escape Game. Great Big Game Show is not an escape room. Rather, it's a live immersive gaming experience where two teams compete over a series of mini games, all guided by an energetic, live host. It takes familiar games from TV, but adds origin spin on the concepts. Troy is passionate about gameshows and sound design. It was fascinating to hear him talk about how he crafts these elements to create the best possible experience for guests. I especially enjoyed hearing him talk about all the ways that sound design can help direct players and shape the flow of a game. If you're interested in hearing more about how sound design matters, join us at the Reality Escape Convention, where Troy will be speaking.

Send us Fan MailWe talk a lot about AI reshaping the future.We talk less about who gets to participate in it.In this episode of FUTUREPROOF., I sit down with Corbb O'Connor, who leads accessibility advocacy at Level Access. Corbb is blind. He's spent years consulting enterprise teams — from financial institutions to global brands — helping them design digital experiences that are actually usable by people with disabilities.This isn't a compliance conversation.It's a systems conversation.As AI systems increasingly generate interfaces, content, decisions, and workflows at scale, accessibility can no longer be an afterthought. If accessibility isn't embedded upstream — in product design, in data pipelines, in AI outputs — exclusion compounds just as quickly as innovation.Corbb argues that inclusion is not a moral add-on. It's infrastructure. It's economics. It's risk management. And increasingly, it's competitive advantage.We explore: Why accessibility should be treated like cybersecurity — a non-negotiable requirement, not a retroactive fix The difference between “AI for accessibility” and “accessible AI” Why automated scanning tools can't replace human testing How poor product design quietly excludes users without teams even realizing it Why psychological safety and culture matter just as much as tooling And whether AI will widen or narrow accessibility gaps over the next five years If digital products define access to banking, healthcare, employment, and civic life, then accessibility isn't a feature.It's participation.And as AI becomes core infrastructure, the question becomes sharper:Are we scaling inclusion — or scaling exclusion?

In this episode of the Life Matters Podcast, host Bill Bell, Vice President of Advanced Sales is joined by Ray Caucci, Chief Product Officer at Penn Mutual, for a thoughtful conversation on product philosophy, long-term thinking, and what it takes to build solutions that endure. As Ray prepares for retirement, he reflects on the principles that have helped shape Penn Mutual's approach to product design, focusing on discipline over trends and durability over hype.

You'll hear practical insights on: Why Penn Mutual prioritizes discipline and simplicity over “flavor-of-the-month” product features What financial professionals often misunderstand about the time and rigor required to launch new products How product philosophy influences pricing, performance expectations, and long-term durability Why chasing the next shiny solution can create risk in client planning conversations How Penn Mutual's approach supports confidence in recommendations over time This episode is designed for financial professionals who want a deeper understanding of how product philosophy impacts real-world planning and why products may evolve, but the principles behind them matter most.

What does it take to build a UX portfolio that makes a hiring manager stop scrolling? Alexander Zeh, Head of Product Design at ManyChat, is here to share how he approaches hiring and what many candidates get wrong.In this episode of the Career Strategy Podcast, Sarah Doody sits down with Alexander Zeh, a design leader with over 20 years of experience who has scaled UX teams from 5 to 43 people. Alexander is refreshingly direct about what he's looking for and what sends candidates straight to the 'no' pile.He breaks down how he structures his hiring process to reduce bias, why a failed project can be a stronger case study than a polished one, how to handle NDA-protected work, and why the "hero designer" narrative is working against you. Whether you're actively applying to UX roles or just trying to understand what hiring managers are really thinking, this conversation will change how you approach your next portfolio presentation.Topics discussed in this episode:✅ Why Alexander treats team diversity as a design decision✅ The grading criteria that lets hiring managers make a confident call✅ Why clear writing and articulation matter more than Figma fluency✅ How constraints and failed projects can make a stronger case study than a polished outcome✅ How claiming to do it all might be a red flag to hiring managers✅ Whether UX job seekers in different countries need different portfolios ✅ How to handle NDA-protected work✅ Why showing your thinking at every fork in the road matters more than the final productLinks From This Episode:ManyChat Careers PageMetaviewCSL Podcast Episode ArchiveTimestamps:00:57 Intro: Alexander and ManyChat03:10 Alexander's career journey07:26 From consulting to in-house leadership12:36 Building diverse teams intentionally15:26 Why grading criteria beats "I'll know it when I see it"16:22 Blind submissions to avoid groupthink18:16 What hiring managers actually look for22:19 What standout candidates do differently28:09 Does location affect your UX job search?35:25 Showing impact without a happy ending44:34 Resilience, vision, and holding the tension47:55 Handling NDA work in your portfolio

**Boys and Girls, We're Back! Tyler from MORRFlate Returns – Tire Inflation Wars, Copycats, Patents & Off-Road Innovation** We're back with another awesome episode of the Jeep Talk Show! Tyler from MORRFlate joins us again for a raw, honest conversation about building a business in the off-road world, dealing with big-time copycats, patent battles, and why competition (the right kind) actually drives innovation. Tyler has been wheeling Toyotas all over California since he was a kid, lives close to the Rubicon Trail, runs NorCal 4x4 Rescue, co-hosts the Snail Trail 4x4 Podcast, and has poured serious support into trail advocacy. In this return visit (first one was back in September 2025), he opens up about getting threatened by a major player, the reality of enforcing patents, and how a $3M company competes against $45M giants with deep marketing pockets. We dive deep into: - How MORRFlate's 4-tire inflation/deflation system works (connects all four tires as one big air tank, equalizes pressure automatically, saves massive time on the trail) - The frustration of direct copies (even stealing the signature neon green color) - Why patents aren't the silver bullet everyone thinks - Airflow limitations of Schrader valves and future ideas to fix the bottleneck - Building a company from a garage condo to a team of 8+ with a warehouse in Sacramento - Lifetime warranties, obsessive quality control, and hiring fellow off-roaders - AI chatbots on the website, robots in manufacturing, and how AI is changing marketing and product design Tyler also shares his 30-second elevator pitch: MORRFlate makes airing up and down your tires super convenient so you can actually enjoy the trail instead of babysitting a compressor. If you've ever deflated for traction, fought with individual tire hoses, or dreamed of faster air-ups on your Jeep, Toyota, or any rig — this one's for you. **Timestamps:** 00:00:00 Show Opening 00:00:10 Misnaming Moore Flat 00:00:31 Tyler's Background & Sales 00:01:19 Previous Interview & Threats 00:02:06 Acquisition Threat & Patent Journey 00:03:08 Patent Approval & Copycats 00:04:01 Company Name Confidential 00:04:33 Patent Enforcement Costs 00:05:21 Competition and Innovation 00:06:35 Amazon Listings & Pricing 00:08:03 RealTruck Ownership Impact 00:09:12 Podcast Monetization Issues 00:09:41 Morfleet Product Overview 00:11:07 Tire Deflation Benefits 00:12:59 Airflow Limits of Valves 00:13:28 Air Tank Volume Calculations 00:14:43 Limited Tank Capacity Demo 00:15:46 Compressor Performance Insights 00:16:24 Personal Projects & Ideas 00:17:40 Upcoming Valve Projects 00:19:07 Valve Interior Flow Restriction 00:21:41 Heavy Equipment Valve Solutions 00:23:48 Apex Rapid Valve Review 00:24:15 Challenges with Large Tires 00:24:59 Passion for Problem Solving 00:29:04 Warehouse & Quality Control 00:34:48 Lifetime Warranty Strategy 00:37:02 Customer Focus Assurance 00:38:22 Employee Attitude Culture 00:39:50 Testing Competitor Gear 00:40:51 People-Centric Philosophy 00:43:28 Corporate vs Small Business 00:44:07 Politics and Truth 00:45:47 Vendor Conflict Over Copying 00:49:05 AI Chatbot Deployment 00:50:30 AI, Quality Control & Robotics 00:53:25 AI in Product Design 00:54:51 AI Impact on Jobs 00:57:45 Minimum Wage Debate 00:58:49 Digital Media & AI 01:02:40 Show Recap & Future 01:04:25 Closing Thanks 01:06:38 Final Thanks & Friendship 01:09:02 Interview Conclusion **Links:** - MORRFlate Official Site: https://morrflate.com/ (Check out the Quad hose kits, Air Hub, and play with their AI chatbot!) - Tyler on Instagram/X: @4x4ToyotaTyler - MORRFlate on Social: @morrflate - Snail Trail 4x4 Podcast: Search "Snail Trail 4x4" on your favorite platform (830+ episodes!)

Your body already makes the most powerful wound-healing molecule on the planet, and now you can use it at home. This episode breaks down hypochlorous acid (HOCl), the compound your white blood cells produce naturally, and why it outperforms Neosporin, hydrogen peroxide, and synthetic antibiotics for everything from cuts and burns to eczema, rosacea, and chronic wounds. -Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR -Grab a generous discount on your next purchase of Active Skin Repair by using code ‘Dave' at: https://www.activeskinrepair.com Host Dave Asprey sits down with Justin Gardner, a 20-year leader in health, wellness, and regenerative medicine who has founded and sold multiple companies and introduced over 50 innovative products into hospitals and doctors' offices. When Justin discovered hypochlorous acid, he shifted his entire focus to making this medical-grade, non-toxic molecule available to the public, founding Active Skin Repair to give people a cleaner, more effective alternative to the chemical-laden products that dominate the skincare aisle. Dave and Justin cover the full biohacking case for HOCl: how it kills 99.9% of bacteria, viruses, and fungi in 15 seconds, why it does not trigger antibiotic resistance, how it avoids destroying the healthy growth factors that hydrogen peroxide nukes, and how it supports the skin microbiome instead of wrecking it. They also get into AI as a tool for functional medicine research, why the standard of care is the floor not the ceiling, and how smarter not harder approaches to wound care and chronic skin conditions are finally going mainstream. Dave shares the story of treating a mystery acid beetle wound from his Amazon trip using this exact compound, and why it belongs in every medicine cabinet alongside your supplements stack. You'll Learn: Why hypochlorous acid is 100 times more powerful than bleach but has the same safety profile as saline How HOCl mimics your immune system's own wound response instead of overriding it Why hydrogen peroxide and Neosporin can actually stall healing and damage your skin microbiome How HOCl disrupts biofilms in chronic wounds, sinuses, and on the skin during eczema flare-ups Why most HOCl products on the market contain little to no active ingredient How to use AI tools like Claude and Perplexity for functional medicine research that most doctors haven't done Why the US standard of care is the floor, not the ceiling, for anyone serious about longevity and anti-aging How to stack HOCl with red light therapy and other biohacking tools for faster recovery Thank you to our sponsors! - Viome | Check it out at https://www.viome.com/ and use code 10DAVE for 10% off.

With AI promising to accelerate everything, is the most important role for a leader now to be the one who knows when to hit the brakes?Agility requires a balance between the rapid adoption of new technologies and the strategic wisdom to know which ones will actually deliver customer value. It's less about moving fast and more about moving in the right direction.Today, we're going to talk about how AI has permanently changed product development. But while it enables teams to tackle more problems faster than ever, the real challenge has shifted to keeping pace with rising customer expectations. This new landscape requires a shift in product leadership—from simply adopting trends to discerning real value, and using human judgment and creativity to decide where AI can make the biggest impact, and where it's just noise.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Kevin Wang, Chief Product Officer at Braze.

With AI promising to accelerate everything, is the most important role for a leader now to be the one who knows when to hit the brakes? Agility requires a balance between the rapid adoption of new technologies and the strategic wisdom to know which ones will actually deliver customer value. It's less about moving fast and more about moving in the right direction. Today, we're going to talk about how AI has permanently changed product development. But while it enables teams to tackle more problems faster than ever, the real challenge has shifted to keeping pace with rising customer expectations. This new landscape requires a shift in product leadership—from simply adopting trends to discerning real value, and using human judgment and creativity to decide where AI can make the biggest impact, and where it's just noise.

Josh Sprague, founder of Orange Mud, joins Rick to share how a simple frustration on the trail turned into a successful outdoor gear brand. Drawing on his manufacturing background, Josh breaks down what it takes to design durable products, scale production, and compete in a crowded market. They also discuss hard lessons from supply chain disruptions, the importance of systems and customer education, and why most product ideas fail. Plus, how endurance sports like trail running shape resilience in business. A must-listen for founders, creators, and outdoor industry professionals.
Today we have two guests from two different companies who have one shared conviction: AI works best when it amplifies people, not replaces them. Today we're joined by Rachana Rele, VP of Product Design for AI-native products at Adobe, and David Shim, co-founder and CEO of Read AI. Together, they're building very different products — but they share a vision of AI that removes the drudgery from creative work and makes room for the thinking that actually matters. In this conversation, we dig into some ideas that could genuinely change how you think about your work. David talks about this concept of “storage of intelligence” — the idea that your knowledge, your meeting history, your working style could all be captured and made available as a kind of digital twin that keeps working even when you're not in the room. And Rachana shares how Adobe is thinking about AI not as a one-shot creative output machine, but as a collaborative partner that helps teams break out of their own blind spots. We also push them on the harder questions — the job anxiety that's real right now in tech, the surveillance concerns that come with recording your work life, and where they each personally draw the line. Bios David Shim is Co-Founder and CEO of Read AI, an AI productivity platform focused on helping knowledge workers leverage the power of AI to improve how they collaborate, communicate, and get work done. The platform provides meeting insights, search, chat, and proactive recommendations for millions of professionals, integrating seamlessly with the tools teams already use. Read AI is pioneering the concept of the Digital Twin—AI that serves as a true extension of you, built on deep contextual understanding of how you work. Today, Read AI is trusted by teams at 90% of the Fortune 500 and in the past year, was recognized as a Top 10 AI Vendor for Enterprises by Brex, a Top 50 AI App by a16z and Mercury, and named one of Inc.'s Top 16 Companies to Watch Before founding Read AI, David served as CEO of Foursquare and previously founded Placed, which was acquired by Snap in 2017. In 2025, he was named CEO of the Year by Geekwire. Rachana Rele Rachana has spent 20+ years at the intersection of technology and human experience — figuring out not just what to build, but why it matters. At Adobe, she shapes the direction of new products, nurtures ideas from zero to something real, and helps early-stage businesses find their footing and grow. She's also a perpetual student — currently finishing an MBA at UC Berkeley's Haas School of Business, with an M.Eng. in HCI from Clemson and a B.E. in Industrial Engineering from the University of Mumbai.
