Why does it feel like everything is falling apart, even as our lives get materially easier in so many ways? Michael Hyatt talks with author and cultural thinker Virginia Postrel about why progress becomes invisible, how nostalgia for the “good old days” distorts reality, and why modern change moves unevenly.They explore why humans crave beauty and meaning (not just function) and how AI is reshaping the future of work. A clear theme emerges throughout the wide-ranging conversation: change is inevitable, and how we respond matters. Resilience, margin, and an entrepreneurial mindset make all the difference.If you've felt powerless against “big systems,” this episode is a reminder that innovation is often personal, practical, and close to home: start where you are, solve what you can, and expect the unexpected.Memorable Quotes“The issues of character never go away. They are eternal human questions, and we forget because we have sort of nostalgic views of the past.”“Even the smartest AI can't figure out what people want—what people are dissatisfied with. And a lot of innovation comes from that. We tend to focus on big technologies. And even big technologies come from a lot of incremental improvements… A lot of improvements come from people saying, ‘I'm dissatisfied with this,' or ‘Here's something I figured out.'”“Human beings don't just value function. They value pleasure, and they value meaning, and pleasure and meaning are things that are very much conveyed through the look and feel of objects or places.”“Agency is problem-solving. It's you solving problems in your life, or whatever that might be—and it's sort of reversed, too, which is that if you assume that it's someone else's job to solve your problem, you sort of give up your sense of agency.” “A lot of leadership is figuring out what gifts individuals have and getting them moving in the right direction… A big part of leadership as problem-solving is people problem-solving—getting people in the right roles and thinking about how those roles mesh.”“Expect that you're going to be in a world that changes, because that's the world we live in. It's the world we've been living in for hundreds of years. The other thing is: understand this didn't start with you. Other people have gone through amazing and scary and terrifying changes, and our civilization has lived to tell the tale.”Key TakeawaysProgress Becomes Invisible Quickly. We normalize improvements fast—and forget what life used to require in drudgery, time, and basic comforts.Change Is Uneven: Bits vs. Atoms. Software accelerates rapidly, while physical-world progress (like housing) can be slowed by policy, cost, and complexity.Dynamism vs. Stasis Shapes How We Face the Future. Some people see change as positive-sum opportunity; others experience it as zero-sum threat.Agency Grows Through Problem-Solving. When we assume “someone else” must fix things, we trade away our sense of control and possibility.Resilience Requires Margin. Financial cushion, emotional bandwidth, and community support help you absorb shocks and adapt.Entrepreneurship Is Bigger Than Business. You can be “entrepreneurial” by starting groups, building community, or solving everyday problems—not just launching companies.Resourcesvpostrel.com (Website)vpostrel.substack.com (Substack Newsletter)The Future and Its Enemies (Book)The Substance of Style (Book)The Power of Glamor (Book)The Fabric of Civilization (Book)Watch on YouTube at:  https://youtu.be/yCMHIdYYS-AThis episode was produced by Sarah Vorhees Wendel of VW Sound

Hate to say it: you're not using ChatGPT right.

I'm joined by Michelle Weger, the first guest I've ever had on the show who lives with narcolepsy, for a powerful conversation about invisible illness, fear, productivity, rest, and what it really takes to keep moving forward when your energy is limited and misunderstood. Michelle is a productivity expert, bestselling author, and international keynote speaker. Throughout our conversation you'll hear her share what daily life with narcolepsy actually looks like, how receiving her diagnosis upended the identity she thought she had, and how she rebuilt confidence and purpose one practical step at a time.  We talk honestly about fear, perfectionism, procrastination, vulnerability, and why rest is not optional, especially for women in leadership. This is a conversation about doing what you can with the energy you have, letting go of shame, and redefining success on your own terms. In this episode, you'll hear: What living with narcolepsy is really like, including chronic exhaustion, disrupted sleep cycles, and why “sleepy” is very different from “tired” (3:36) How Michelle's diagnosis changed her life overnight, including losing her driver's license and the identity she thought she was building (10:08) Why fear doesn't disappear as you grow, and how learning to move through it is more important than trying to eliminate it Practical ways to work through procrastination and perfectionism (15:09) What Michelle has learned from working alongside her Great Dane service dog, Quinn, including lessons about asking for and receiving help (33:54) How to balance ambition, productivity, and energy limits, especially for women in leadership (37:32) Common misconceptions about invisible conditions like narcolepsy and why there is no one-size-fits-all experience or solution (39:35) Resources from this episode: Write Your Way Through It starts on January 21st!

“Slow living” is often presented as the cure for stress and overwhelm, especially for moms. But what if slowing down isn't the answer at all? Free Smile & Start Attitude Challenge: https://simplyconvivial.com/smileThe speed of life isn't the point. Working in the place God has put us and living in His grace and kindness that makes the impossible doable without stress, fast or slow, is the point.In this episode, I explain why slow living is a false ideal and how chasing a peaceful aesthetic can actually increase anxiety and burnout. Peace doesn't come from fewer responsibilities, fewer people, or a quieter-looking life. It comes from aligning our expectations with God's calling and trusting His grace to equip us for the work He's given us.Read the article version here: https://www.simplyconvivial.com/blog/slow-living-is-a-false-ideal/Minimizing your life doesn't automatically remove stress, social media aesthetics distort our standards, and Scripture calls us to zeal in good works, not retreat from them. God may call you to seasons that feel full, demanding, and intense. You can be cheerful and content in busy seasons, too.The speed of your life isn't the point. Faithfulness is.Christian homemaking takes deliberate practice, not perfect systems. Every week on Simply Convivial, I share practical mindset shifts and small, steady habits that help you build a home anchored in truth and run with cheerful consistency. If you want less overwhelm, stronger routines, and a more faithful way to manage your day, you're in the right place. Grab a basket of laundry, press play, and let's grow in cheerful productivity together.

Your boss just dropped three more projects on your already overflowing desk. When you express concern, you're told to "just be grateful for the opportunity." Your to-do list would take 42 hours to complete, but you only have 20 hours available this week. A productivity guru tells you "you can do anything if you just stay positive" and that positive thinking will make everything magically fall into place. You're drowning in overwhelm, but everyone around you keeps saying you just need to "choose joy" and "focus on abundance."This isn't a mindset problem. It's a math problem. And toxic positivity in productivity culture is gaslighting you into thinking you're failing when the real issue is that you've been handed an impossible equation to solve. In this episode, I'll cover:3 toxic positivity messages keeping you stuck and the harm it causes What realistic optimism actually looks likeThe difference between being realistic versus making excuses3 self-check questions to spot when you're caught in toxic positivity thinkingWhy setting boundaries based on reality isn't negative, it's honest________________________________

January 6, 2026: Is AI actually increasing productivity — or just shifting responsibility without reward? In this episode of Future Ready Today, I unpack seven of the most important future-of-work stories shaping leadership decisions right now. From why Gen Z is entering the workforce anxious about AI, to new evidence that AI can slow work down instead of speeding it up, to the rise of empowered employees quietly ignoring return-to-office mandates, this episode explores what's really changing beneath the surface. I look at why the U.S. government is reviving apprenticeships, how AI is enabling four-day workweeks only when leaders redesign work intentionally, why flexibility debates have shifted from where work happens to when it happens, and how expanding responsibility without expanding pay is setting the stage for the next trust crisis at work.

In this era of hypercompetition, massive marketplace disruption and other forms of deep change that I haven't seen as so intense in my lifetime, I do humbly suggest there is a way to lead your field.I teach the clients I mentor to pay less attention to the swings of the stock market, global economy and geopolitical factors (which we cannot control) and dramatically increase your dedication to one thing you CAN control: the value and innovation you bring to your customers and industry.Yes, I suggest that you create a monopoly born of mastery. Yes, I'm encouraging you (enthusiastically!) to stop following the dreadful news all day and start the studying, training, optimizing and transforming process that will make you a rare-air performer in your field.The marketplace always rewards scarcity. What I mean by this is that when you can do what very few do, you will receive the rewards very few will receive.My team has just opened access to my completely new and very helpful online program The Amazing Day Blueprint.

There is a missing piece between setting our goals and achieving them. Productivity expert and author Chris Bailey says the problem is intention. He talks about his new book Intentional and why so many goals quietly fade away. Chris explains how our habits, values and daily decisions shape whether we follow through. When we want to improve our productivity, goal-setting and finishing what we start, it's small intentional shifts that can make a big difference.

If you've noticed that effort stopped being a differentiator, this episode will explain exactly what shifted — and what actually drives value in modern work. Lena Thompson, a leadership consultant with a systems analysis background, argues that the era where hustle and logic alone produced breakthroughs is over. AI can outpace us on sheer processing — but it cannot manage emotional energy, and that's where the real work of leadership now lives.We dig into what emotional energy actually is (it's not soft feel‑good fluff — it literally shapes brain function), why unprocessed emotions create cognitive blockages, how leaders can regulate emotional energy to improve decisions under pressure, and practical tools you can use today. This is an episode about leading from within, not just doing more — because the quality of your energy determines the quality of your impact.Related Links:Join the People Managing People CommunitySubscribe to the newsletter to get our latest articles and podcastsConnect with Lena on LinkedInSupport the show

In corporate finance, we often focus on balance sheets, cash flow, and NPV. However, there is an "invisible factor" that dictates whether those numbers hold up: Corporate Culture. While it doesn't have a line item, culture acts as either a precision tool for financial discipline or a toxic liability that destroys enterprise value.In this episode of Corporate Finance Explained, hear how to move culture from the HR office to finance, exploring how trust, psychological safety, and accountability translate into hard dollars and cents.The 4 Financial Levers of CultureA strong culture isn't just about "feeling good" it's a performance multiplier that impacts the bottom line through four direct channels:Productivity & Execution: High-trust cultures move with incredible velocity. By cutting through bureaucratic "sign-off" layers and blame-avoidance, high-trust teams can reduce decision cycle times by up to 40%, accelerating time-to-market.Decision-Making Quality: Healthy cultures encourage "robust debate." When employees feel safe to voice concerns (Psychological Safety), leadership avoids the catastrophic blind spots that lead to failed mergers or flawed product launches.Cost of Human Capital: Employee turnover is a massive recurring expense. Replacing an employee can cost 50% to 150% of their salary, but the hidden costs—lost institutional knowledge and training dips—are even higher.Risk Management & Compliance: Fear-based cultures suppress bad news. A culture that encourages surfacing risks early lowers the company's risk profile, directly reducing the Cost of Capital (the interest rates you pay) demanded by lenders.Culture in Strategy: Accuracy, Discipline, and InnovationCulture fundamentally changes how a company executes its financial planning and growth:Forecast Accuracy: Transparent cultures provide cleaner, earlier data. Surfacing a risk is rewarded, leading to fewer "end-of-quarter" surprises.Cost Discipline: Cultures of high accountability drive Zero-Based Budgeting (ZBB), moving away from "entitlement spending."Innovation: Real innovation requires the safety to fail. If failure is punished, employees only pursue safe, incremental ideas, stifling disruptive growth.Resilience: During market shocks, trust enables rapid cost-cutting and resource reallocation that low-trust competitors cannot match.Case Studies: Triumphs and TragediesNetflix (Success): Their "Freedom & Responsibility" model enabled massive capital shifts from DVDs to streaming via extreme strategic agility.Google (Success): Psychological safety powers an R&D engine that prunes failing projects early, saving billions in "sunk costs."WeWork (Failure): A culture of unchecked exuberance ignored financial controls, erasing tens of billions in paper value.Theranos (Failure): Suppression of dissent led to massive misstatements and total corporate obliteration.The Finance Professional's Cultural DashboardFinance teams should track cultural health using these granular data indicators:Turnover by Function: High churn in Internal Audit or Compliance is a massive red flag. Forecasting Behavior: Are teams "padding" budgets to create easy beats? This is a symptom of low trust. Project Delivery Metrics: Consistent delays in cross-functional handoffs often signal a collaboration problem, not a funding one. Ethical Indicators: Spikes in whistleblower reports or audit findings are leading indicators of catastrophic financial risk.

Your goals don't fail because you're lazy.They fail because your brain doesn't know what to do next.In this episode of the Kwik Brain podcast, I break down a brain-friendly goal system that turns motivation into follow-through, even if you're busy, overwhelmed, or you've already fallen off track before.Your brain doesn't act on vague intentions.It acts on what you write, what you see, and what you feel.In this episode, you will learn: ✅ The brain-friendly goal formula ✅ Why your brain struggles with 12-month goals and how to use a 90-day focus window instead ✅ How writing your goals down makes you more likely to achieve them (and what to track weekly) ✅ The difference between lag measures vs lead measures (and why lead measures make success inevitable) ✅ How to create “if-then” rules so your habits run automatically (without willpower) ✅ How to prepare for problems before they show up ✅ How to design your environment so good habits are easy and bad habits are harder ✅ A busy-person daily plan ✅ A 60-second recall drill that reinforces confidence and consistencyThis isn't just about setting “better goals.”It's about building a system your brain will actually follow.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Text and Be HeardGambling doesn't just take your money; it steals your attention, your calm, and your time. We explore how the “it's just entertainment” narrative is crafted by an industry that plays the long game while your brain chases short-term highs. Our guest on the Entrepreneurs on Fire podcast with John Lee Dumas, is recovery educator Hugo, and he explains what actually happens neurologically during a bet, why even a $5 wager spikes anxiety, and how the rush mirrors stimulant patterns on brain maps. We look at why gambling feels “productive” compared to other vices, and how that illusion keeps people locked in and losing money.From slot machine payout math to sportsbook design, we unpack the mechanics that ensure that the house wins. Hugo connects the dots between flashy Vegas spectacles, live betting on your phone, and subtle marketing that targets younger audiences through colors, sounds, and constant odds talk during broadcasts. With State endorsements normalizing sports betting and fantasy leagues blurring lines, it's no accident teens and families are surrounded by wagering cues. The result is a drip-feed that trains the subconscious and erodes daily focus.We turn from diagnosis to solutions with clear, practical steps. Hugo outlines how to spot early warning signs—compulsive score checking, secrecy, emotional distance—and then lays out accessible recovery moves that rebuild healthy neurochemistry. Replace the artificial spike with free dopamine from small goals, serotonin from sun, gratitude or meditation, endorphins from movement, exercise or laughter, and oxytocin from hugs, petting dogs and real connection. Add structure with therapy, peer support, and environmental safeguards, and you'll feel productivity return as a side effect of a richer life. If the story you've heard is that gambling makes games more exciting, this conversation offers a better one: your presence, your relationships, and your health are the real win.If this resonates, subscribe, share with someone who needs it, and leave a quick review to help more listeners find the show.

Ted and Owen recap a goal-planning lunch session featuring Brandon Turner, Collin Schwartz, and Vince Gettings (Titan Group), and get real about what actually works when setting goals: process goals vs. outcome goals. Because “lose 20 pounds” isn't a plan—it's a wish. Ted breaks down his approach: start with the big vision, then work it down into 90-day goals, monthly targets, weekly priorities, and daily “rocks” that keep momentum moving even when life gets chaotic.They also hit the constant entrepreneur tug-of-war: building what you love (community, podcast, events) vs. building what pays the bills—plus why some “loss leader” work can still be worth it if it fuels the bigger mission. They wrap with what's coming next, including the REIA Mastery Series event on January 16 with five keynote speakers, a full-day format, and 6 Nebraska real estate CE credit hours for licensed agents. The episode closes with a preview of an upcoming interview with local investor and business owner Jay Miralles—the kind of convo that would've gone two hours if they didn't have a hard stop.If you keep saying, “I can't delegate because training takes too long,” start screen-recording what you do (and why you do it).

After a few months away, we're back behind the mic with a real-time life and business update. In this episode, we share what the first four months of parenthood have been like, how our parental leave actually played out, and where our work is headed next.We talk about:Life with baby Leon and what surprised us most in the early monthsHow stepping away from WAIM Unlimited and work impacted usWhat's happening with Teachery and why it's entering a new chapterTwo very different paths we're considering for what we build next—and why we're tornWhy clarity still comes from action, not overthinkingThis episode is part catch-up, part behind-the-scenes, and part open-ended invitation to follow along as we figure out what the next iteration of our work looks like in 2026.

Episode DescriptionIn this episode of the Lead Ministry Podcast, Josh Denhart and Bill Van Kirk unpack what it means to pursue biblical productivity at the start of a new year. They explore essential productivity for 2026, offering a God-centered vision of work, diligence, and stewardship for ministry leaders.If you've ever felt torn between “doing more” and staying faithful to your family, soul, and calling, this episode will equip and inspire you with a framework for fruitful, sustainable productivity that glorifies God.Key Topics CoveredRedefining productivity – moving from secular hustle to biblical stewardshipProcesses and people – why ministry leaders must build systems and develop volunteersEternal reward – how diligence today shapes the “well done” you will hear tomorrowKey Quote“God doesn't expect maintenance; He expects a return on what He's entrusted to you.”Scripture ReferencesColossians 3:23 – “Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men.”Ephesians 5:15–16 – “Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time.”Matthew 25:14–30 – The parable of the talents, where the Master commends faithful servants who multiply what they were given.TakeawayBiblical productivity is not about burning the candle at both ends. It is about honoring God with focused, diligent work that builds processes, develops people, and serves the local church. When you treat this year as your “one and only life” and labor with eternity in view, you position yourself to experience the joy of fruitfulness now and the reward of “well done” later.Call to ActionWe hope this episode encourages and equips you.

DNCO just turned 20, and founder Joy Nazzari is not done yet. In this episode of The Creative Boom Podcast, Joy joins Katy to talk honestly about building a place brand studio from two slightly rebellious thirty-somethings with no clients, to a 33-strong team working on cities and even a whole US state. Joy shares why she and co-founder Ben walked out of permanent jobs with nothing lined up, how "never doing shit work" became a founding principle, and why saying no early on shaped the kind of clients they attract today. She also opens up about buying Ben out, staying friends, and why founders should be allowed to leave without drama. The conversation delves into the realities of running a studio after the pandemic. Joy talks about the economics no one wants to touch publicly. Productivity, hybrid working, the way slowed pace quietly kills profit, and why getting people in a room together still matters more than anyone wants to admit. She also reflects on what it means to be a tall American non-designer leading a London agency, the label "female-founded", and how it lands in different rooms, including very male, sports-led organisations. There is an honest chat about ageing as a woman in a visual industry, being "an older woman" in the room, and the subtle ways respect and perception can shift. We get into family, identity and what really keeps her going. Joy talks candidly about growing up in California with a father whose career was destroyed by alcoholism, how that experience turned financial security into a core driver, and why she has built a career around helping people feel like they belong in places. Katy and Joy also compare notes on menopause, confidence, video, and the strange process of becoming more visible just as your face starts to change. They talk about raising children, how different generations see work and politics, why debate and nuance matter, and how to keep reading beyond your own bubble. Towards the end, Joy shares the advice she would give her 30-year-old self. Chill out and don't overreact. Delegate sooner. Let designers hear clients unfiltered. Guard relationships and stay in touch with people who back your work. Underneath it all, she admits that for all the big ideas about cities, identity and belonging, the real engine has always been simple: keep the people you love safe and secure, and keep your brain switched on for as long as you can. A big, honest chat about work, power, ageing, politics, money, motherhood and why many of us build studios in the first place.

Starting January 5th, 2026, tens of thousands of Ontario government employees return to the office full-time, with Alberta following in February. Major banks and corporations are rolling out similar mandates across Canada. But are we solving the real problem?Canada's productivity crisis is undeniable. Our GDP per capita has fallen to 75% of the US level (down from 90% in 2010), and we're second only to Italy in G7 productivity decline. Business productivity dropped 1% in Q2 2025—the sharpest decline since 2022.The instinct is to blame remote work. But the data tells a different story: 77% of remote workers report being more productive at home, yet 85% of leaders don't trust it. The real issue? Most managers never learned to manage without proximity, and most employees never developed the self-management skills remote work requires.For decades, managers relied on presence as a proxy for productivity. Remote work exposed this weakness. Meanwhile, 61% of remote workers say they need more training, but only 70% receive it. The result: some thrive remotely while others work 65% more hours and burn out.The solution isn't about choosing remote versus office—it's about intentional skill-building. Managers need to learn outcome-based management. Employees need time management and boundary-setting skills. Organizations need to design work models deliberately.This week's Golden Hour challenge: If you're a manager, define what "good" actually looks like for one person's role. If you're an employee, track where one full workday actually goes. If you're an owner, identify your biggest productivity drain.The businesses that build these skills will dominate. The ones arguing about chairs won't.Connect with Chris Cooper:Website - https://businessisgood.com/

Welcome to episode #1017 of Thinking With Mitch Joel (formerly Six Pixels of Separation). At a time when technology promises limitless capability yet leaves so many people mentally depleted, the question is no longer whether digital tools are powerful, but whether we know how to live with them. Paul Leonardi is a leading expert on digital transformation, the future of work, and organizational networks, with more than two decades of research and advisory work focused on how technology reshapes collaboration, innovation, and human behavior. A professor at the University of California, Santa Barbara, where he holds the Duca Family Endowed Chair and chairs the Department of Technology Management, Paul has advised Fortune 500 companies, startups, and nonprofits on navigating the people side of technological change. His work has shaped global conversations, translating rigorous research into practical frameworks leaders can actually use. His latest book, Digital Exhaustion - Simple Rules For Reclaiming Your Life, confronts a growing paradox of modern work and life: technologies that make everything possible are also wearing us down. Drawing on years of research and real-world observation, Paul explains why digital exhaustion isn't simply about screen time, but about constant task switching, inference-making in data-saturated environments, and the emotional toll of being perpetually reachable. He examines how capitalist incentives and addictive design amplify fatigue, why generational differences don't offer immunity, and how the collapse of clear boundaries between work, home, and identity has created a new baseline of psychological strain. Rather than advocating withdrawal or digital detoxes, Paul offers a more realistic path rooted in intentionality, clearer norms, and conscious choices about which tools deserve our attention. His work reframes exhaustion not as personal failure, but as a systemic condition that can be managed through better design, better habits, and a more humane relationship with technology.

Stop Setting Goals God Never Asked You to Chase The start of a new year brings lists. Resolutions get written. Habits get promised. Motivation runs high for a short window of time. Most of those plans center on visible outcomes. Weight. Income. Productivity. Projects. Schedules. Those goals are not wrong. But they are incomplete. The deeper issue is not whether you are setting goals. It is whether your goals are shaping who you are becoming. That is where spiritual goals matter. A man can improve his body, grow his bank account, and still feel empty. He can accomplish everything on his list and still drift further from God. Progress in life does not always equal growth in faith. The question worth asking at the beginning of any season is simple. Are the goals you are chasing drawing you closer to Christ or pulling your attention away from Him? Why Spiritual Direction Comes First Most people plan backward. They decide what they want, then ask God to bless it. Scripture shows the opposite pattern. God shapes the heart first, then orders the life. Paul makes this clear in Philippians 3. He describes focus, pursuit, and discipline, but not for comfort or […] The post Spiritual Goals appeared first on UNCOMMEN.

By healing your hurts and building your strongest self you reap enormous business rewards. Seems strange right?Yet you can be part saint and part CEO and business titan. By learning how to appreciate, respect and honor yourself MUCH more.By growing in self-love you'll:…refuse to accept mediocrity in your work because you know you deserve to push magic into the market.…avoid dealing with people who don't see your greatness and who minimize your magnificence.…be disinterested in accepting a deal that doesn't respect what you're bringing to the table …stand up for yourself when you're not being treated the way you deserve to be treated. …ensure your clients compensate you in kind for the rich value you bring them.That's it for today.

¿Trabajas todo el día pero sientes que avanzas poco? ¿Tu lista de tareas nunca termina?En este episodio analizamos Proyecto Productividad, de Chris Bailey (The Productivity Project, 2016), un libro revolucionario que cambia completamente las reglas del juego productivo.Chris Bailey no es el típico gurú de productividad. Cuando se graduó de la universidad con honores, rechazó dos ofertas de trabajo en grandes corporaciones para hacer algo que sonaba completamente loco: dedicar un año completo a convertirse en el más productivo posible. Durante 365 días se convirtió en su propio experimento, probando más de 25 técnicas diferentes. Su blog "A Year of Productivity" se convirtió en una sensación mundial, y dio una charla TED vista por millones.Lo más valioso: Chris descubrió que en la economía del conocimiento actual, gestionar solo tu tiempo ya no es suficiente. Necesitas dominar tres recursos: tiempo, atención y energía.
