Every summer, veterinarians issue the same warning: never leave your pet alone in a parked car, even for a few minutes. What many people don't realize is just how quickly temperatures inside a vehicle can become dangerous, even on days that don't feel extremely hot. Heatstroke can happen fast and can lead to serious injury or even death for our furry family members. Heather Quilty, Registered Veterinary Technician and Program Manager of Clinical Learning with VetStrategy, spoke to Ken Connors.
In this episode of Thriving in Intersectionality, Dr. Lola Adeyemo sits down with educator, researcher, and founder of Working with Delia, Delia Saenz Skinner, for a deeply personal conversation about identity, belonging, education, and what it means to come home to yourself after years of learning to survive.The conversation begins where every episode of Thriving in Intersectionality begins—with identity.Delia reflects on the intersecting experiences that have shaped her life as a woman, daughter, teen mother, formerly undocumented immigrant, educator, and community leader.

While much attention has been given to a paper by Tulane University published in May that proclaimed New Orleans' future as being “past the point of no return,” today's Biz Talks guest sees much more hope. A veteran of the environmental field working in New Orleans for 18 years, Emily Snyder is the Program Manager at Urban Conservancy, a local nonprofit that runs multiple initiatives to strengthen our urban environment and economy.This week, she shares what work is exciting her right now, why she is not losing hope, and what else needs to be done.
Rev. Nadia Bolz-Weber speaks of a “load‑bearing structure”—the steady, grounding force that holds us when life feels unstable. For her, that structure is God and the salvation she found in Jesus: “For me, Unitarian Universalist principles and values have long served as one of those stabilizing structures. Over time, I've come to understand that such support can take many forms, so long as they help us remain upright through trauma and change. The Karpman framework of the Drama Triangle and the Empowerment Triangle has become one of those supports in my own ministry. I have seen how often groups, including congregations, become caught in the cycle of victim, persecutor, and rescuer, and how transformative it can be to shift into the roles of creator, challenger, and coach. This framework can be grounding, helping us to remain compassionate, clear, and centered during trauma‑impacted work.” Rev. Dr. Jane Davis grew up in a Southern Baptist family and first discovered Unitarian Universalism more than forty years ago. After a 25‑plus‑year career as an engineer in the nuclear power industry, she answered the call to ministry in 2015 and enrolled at Meadville Lombard Theological School. She completed her ministerial internship at First U in 2020, and was ordained by this congregation in 2021. She went on to serve as a community minister in a Program Manager position with the University of New Mexico Health Sciences Project ECHO. She was granted Full Fellowship in February 2026, and completed her Doctor of Ministry in May 2026. Music: Lydia Clark

Every team is made up of people who think differently, communicate differently, solve problems differently, and contribute in very different ways. Yet in many workplaces, there is still an unspoken expectation that everyone should operate the same way.That is why strengths-based development has become such an important conversation for organizations and leaders. Gallup research has consistently found that employees who have the opportunity to use their strengths every day are significantly more engaged, more productive, and more likely to thrive at work. Understanding how people naturally work, collaborate, respond under pressure, and contribute to a team can completely change the way teams communicate, partner, and perform together.In this episode of Bring Out the Talent, we explore how CliftonStrengths can help individuals and teams better understand working styles, improve collaboration, and recognize both the advantages and potential blind spots that can come with our greatest strengths. We're joined by Chris Soucy, a Certified CliftonStrengths trainer and career development specialist. Chris spent nearly a decade at Harvard University's Center for Workplace Development as a Program Manager for Leader and Manager Development, where he served as Lead Instructor for foundational leadership programs and designed courses to strengthen management practices across the university.Chris recently facilitated an in-person strengths workshop for our TTA team. The conversations that came out of that session sparked so much reflection around communication, contribution styles, and team dynamics that we wanted to continue the discussion here on Bring Out the Talent and share those insights with our audience as well.

In this episode of BioTalk with Rich Bendis, Sam Gussman-Toh, Portfolio Manager for the Small Business Program at ARPA-H, joins the conversation to discuss how the agency is creating new pathways for small businesses developing ambitious health technologies. Sam explains how the ARPA-H model differs from traditional federal funding programs, with a focus on moonshot health solutions, program manager-led portfolios, milestone-driven contracts, and a strong emphasis on moving technologies toward real-world use. He also discusses how the Small Business Program supports SBIR and STTR performers through Phase I, Phase II, Direct to Phase II, and Fast Track awards. The conversation highlights how ARPA-H is working with ambitious small businesses, including non-traditional companies and early-stage startups that may be working with the federal government for the first time. Sam also shares how commercialization support is built into the program, including ARPA-H's Entrepreneur-in-Residence partnership with BioHealth Innovation. Through that relationship, BHI EIRs help performers strengthen regulatory strategy, intellectual property planning, go-to-market strategy, reimbursement considerations, and other key commercialization needs. Sam also discusses ARPA-H's draft Small Business Program solicitation, the upcoming virtual Proposers' Day on June 11, and what companies should know about the application process, topic areas, technical pitches, and future funding opportunities. Editing and post-production work for this episode was provided by The Podcast Consultant.

Recorded along the banks of the Green River inside Dinosaur National Monument, Joey sits down with Dusty Perkins to explore the science, beauty, and ecological complexity of the Green and Yampa Rivers.Dusty serves as Program Manager for the National Park Service's Northern Colorado Plateau Inventory & Monitoring Network and is a lead scientist on the Big Rivers Monitoring Project. In this conversation, he explains how scientists monitor some of the American West's most iconic river systems, what happens when rivers are dammed and regulated, and why long-term ecological monitoring is critical for the future of these landscapes.From endangered fish and invasive species to river morphology, sediment flow, snowpack decline, and the emotional experience of rafting through canyon country, this episode offers a rare look at the science shaping our public lands.In this episode, we explore: What the Big Rivers Monitoring Project actually does How the Green and Yampa Rivers differ ecologically The impact of Flaming Gorge Dam on river systems Why sediment and seasonal flooding are essential to river health The role of invasive species like tamarisk How endangered fish species depend on natural river cycles Why long-term monitoring matters in national parks The effects of declining snowpack and aridification across the West What it's like conducting science on multi-day rafting expeditions The emotional connection scientists develop with these landscapes Key Takeaways The Yampa River remains one of the last relatively free-flowing desert rivers in the American West. Dams dramatically alter water temperature, sediment transport, and seasonal flooding patterns. Native fish and plant species evolved over thousands of years around natural spring runoff cycles. River complexity — including back channels and floodplains — creates biodiversity and ecosystem resilience. Long-term monitoring gives park managers the scientific data needed to make informed conservation decisions.

Prodcast: ПоиÑк работы в IT и переезд в СШÐ
В этом выпуске гостья - Татьяна Пугачева, Internal Audit Program Manager в Tesla, которая переехала в США из Беларуси, прошла путь от работы в мотеле и баре до карьеры в одной из самых известных технологических компаний мира.Мы обсудили, как Татьяна оказалась в США после отчисления из университета в Беларуси, почему решила полностью поменять карьерный путь и как выбрала аудит как одну из самых стабильных и востребованных профессий в Америке. Разобрали, как устроено американское образование, зачем многие студенты начинают с community college, как можно сократить стоимость обучения со $180,000 до долга в $26,000 и почему связи университетов с работодателями иногда важнее самого диплома. Поговорили о разнице между accounting и bookkeeping, внутренним и внешним аудитом, карьерном росте в Big Four и зарплатах аудиторов в США. Отдельно затронули работу в Tesla: как проходят интервью, как компания оценивает корпоративные риски, почему аудиторы анализируют даже политические связи Илона Маска и как AI меняет профессию аудитора, не уничтожая ее полностью. Также обсудили, почему фундаментальные профессии остаются устойчивыми несмотря на технологические изменения, как стратегически выбирать карьеру в США и почему образование может стать самым надежным активом в жизни.Татьяна Пугачева (Tatsiana Puhachova) - менеджер программ внутреннего аудита (Program Manager, Internal Audit) в Tesla.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tpuhachovaСтажировки в США.

We are joined by Program Manager in the Office of Diversity and Inclusion at Southern New Hampshire University (SNHU) Jen Torres, to explore what sustainable, system-wide implementation of restorative practices in higher education really looks like. Jen brings a practitioner's lens to a challenge many institutions face: how to move from reactive, discipline-focused approaches toward proactive, relationship-centered campus communities. She walks us through SNHU's three-year restorative practices implementation process that brings theory to life through real-life examples. From using AI tools to audit communication for relational language to tracking real-time shifts in restorative practices approaches with students, these stories demonstrate how innovation and human-centered practice can coexist and thrive. On the topic of the use of AI, Jen reminds us that technology can enhance efficiency, but it cannot replace human connection. In an era of eroding trust, restorative practices become essential to rebuilding and maintaining strong relationships. Jen M. Torres serves as program manager, social justice advocate, and liberatory learning designer for SNHU's Office of Diversity and Inclusion. With over 16 years of experience across education, nonprofit, and corporate sectors, Jen founded SimplyLead, LLC, and specializes in antiracist practice, conflict transformation, restorative practices, and liberatory approaches to leadership and culture repair. Her work centers on dismantling systemic inequities while helping teams and institutions move through conflict with honesty, accountability, and care. Known for blending deep relational practice with clear strategy, Jen designs and facilitates spaces that are brave, grounded, and action-oriented. Through workshops, leadership development, and collaborative learning experiences, she helps teams build cultures rooted in belonging, shared responsibility, and lasting change, where conflict is engaged as an opportunity for growth, learning, and collective transformation. Tune in to discover what it takes to truly weave restorative practices into the fabric of higher education.

"When we look at things on a neighborhood level and we're noticing patterns, noticing new colonies — when something's predictable, it's preventable." This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie's Fund, OcuTrap, and The Kitten Conference. What does it look like to build a community cat program from scratch — not just logistically, but with real intention about how change happens in a neighborhood? In this episode, Stacy LeBaron speaks with Tonya Cook, Community Cat Program Manager at Ohio Alleycat Resource (OAR) in Cincinnati, about her remarkable journey from neonatal kitten foster to full-time community cat advocate, and what she's learned about scaling impact when you're a team of one. Tonya's path into animal welfare began in 2020 when she started fostering neonatal kittens with Cincinnati Animal CARE. Night feedings and fragile lives gave her a front-row seat to how many kittens were being born outside — and how few resources existed to stop the cycle at the source. That question drove her toward TNR and, ultimately, toward a complete career change. In 2022, she left behind 15 years as a professional photographer to pursue animal welfare full-time, gaining hands-on experience at UCAN and Cincinnati Animal CARE before joining OAR in 2025 to build its community cat program from the ground up. In its pilot year, that program has facilitated the TNR of over 400 cats — most of them trapped by Tonya herself, two days a week, before she recognized the limits of that approach. When burnout began to set in, she did something harder than trapping: she stepped back. That decision led to the creation of OAR's Neighborhood Cat Ambassador Program, which embeds trained volunteers directly into high-need zip codes identified through shelter and rescue data. Ambassadors walk their streets, distribute flyers with QR codes linking to a community cat census, connect caregivers to resources, mediate neighbor disputes, and trap for those who can't. The result is a program that feels less like a service and more like a movement — and one that's bringing neighbors together in the process. Tonya also shares an inspiring story from a mobile home park 20 miles outside Cincinnati, where she spent last spring trapping 58 cats. Earlier this year, the park reached back out — not to ask for help, but to learn how to do it themselves. They've since purchased their own traps, gone door to door, posted on social media, and started bringing cats in weekly. That's the long game Tonya is playing: not just TNR, but teaching communities to sustain the work themselves. Press Play Now For: How fostering neonatal kittens led Tonya to TNR — and a complete career change Why Tonya insisted on doing the work herself first before bringing in volunteers, and what she learned from that approach. The story of Sonny, the neighborhood cat who introduced a whole street of strangers to each other How OAR's Neighborhood Cat Ambassador Program works, who it recruits, and why ambassadors stay engaged longer than traditional trapping volunteers A mobile home park success story: from one organization doing the work to a community sustaining TNR on their own Why "when something's predictable, it's preventable" is the mindset shift that defines neighborhood-based cat management How to find common ground with neighbors who hate cats and neighbors who love them Resources & Links Ohio Alleycat Resource (OAR) — Website OAR Community Cat Program OAR on Instagram (@ohioalleycat) OAR on Facebook Tonya Cook on Instagram (@cincycatlady)

What does it actually take to build a pitch competition that changes lives and keeps founders in their hometown? In this episode, Molly King, VP of Clients at Economic Impact Catalyst, sits down with Cenzo Caronna and Shivang Thakor of STartUP Northshore to pull back the curtain on the Inspire Startup Slam, one of the Gulf South's largest pitch competitions, running out of a 100-year-old theater in Hammond, Louisiana.Cenzo and Shiv share how they've built a $100K prize ecosystem (combining $50K in non-dilutive grant cash with in-kind services) serving a three-parish rural region north of New Orleans, and why the event they designed for "the person who got dragged there" has become the cornerstone of their startup ecosystem.In this episode:How STartUP Northshore came together across St. Tammany, Tangipahoa, and Washington Parishes, and why trust-building in rural communities requires a boots-on-the-ground, not broadcast, approachThe full founder journey: from the ID Institute 12-week accelerator → Launchpad ($5K competition) → Inspire Startup Slam ($50K)Why they scrapped winner-take-all after year one and what they changedThe six judging criteria, including one most competitions miss: commitment to and potential impact for the North ShoreHow they built a $100K prize pool starting with their own money, a Chevron partnership, and a cold call from Capital OneThe pro tip that saved them $28,000 (hint: book a theater, not a conference room)Why in-kind services like accountants, marketing firms, and coworking space may matter more than the cash prizeLeading vs. lagging indicators: why business formation is a "vanity metric" and what STartUP Northshore actually tracksPractical advice for other program managers: expect the unexpected, do non-scalable things, and text your foundersThis year's winner didn't make the finals the previous year. He kept building with STartUP Northshore's support and came back to win the whole thing.Guests:Cenzo Caronna, Executive Director, STartUP NorthshoreShivang Thakor, Program Manager, STartUP NorthshoreHost: Molly King, VP of Clients, Economic Impact Catalyst

What happens after a scam goes beyond financial loss. It often leaves people dealing with emotions they are not prepared to face or talk about.

This is an Audio Edition episode—originally published on YouTube and optimized for audio listening.Does networking make you anxious? This video will completely reframe the way you see it. In just 59 seconds, I break down why your fear of rejection, being ignored, or “bothering someone” is based on the wrong story. And I'll show you how every successful career you admire was built on the same awkward messages, unanswered DMs, and vulnerable conversations you're afraid to send. The truth is that networking isn't a threat. It's the engine behind most meaningful opportunities, and the only difference between people who advance and people who stay stuck is the willingness to act in spite of fear.
