This week on Better Business, Better Life, host Debra Chantry-Taylor is joined by venture capitalist and bestselling author Ben Wiener to unpack the art and challenges of startup pitches. With only two out of ten startups likely to succeed, Ben shares how founders can stand out using his H.E.A.R.T. framework: Hypothesis, Enormous Stakes, Alternatives, Radically Different, and Team. From his journey in law and venture capital to writing Fever Pitch, Ben offers practical insights into what investors really want to hear and why storytelling matters as much as strategy. He explains how anticipating questions, neutralising competition early, and presenting a differentiated solution can make all the difference. Beyond pitching, Ben emphasises the value of active reading, empathy, and paying it forward - reminding us that business success is often rooted in doing the right thing for others. Whether you're a startup founder, a leader refining your communication, or simply curious about what makes ideas resonate, this episode is packed with wisdom and actionable tools.

In this powerful episode of The Contrast Project Lounge, hosts Tracy Rigdon and Jim Alabiso welcome Al Emerick a transformational speaker and creator of ValueMapping®, for a conversation that digs deep into one of the most misunderstood concepts in modern culture: value.Let's be clear—this isn't some buzzword bingo on personal branding or another empty TED Talk.

TakeawaysValue is often misdefined in terms of monetary gain.Personal value is tied to individual contributions and impact.Clarity in communication empowers communities.Collaboration enhances creativity and effectiveness.Legacy is about reshaping how value is perceived.Every individual has a unique value to offer.The importance of asking the right questions about value.Community growth is linked to individual well-being.Humor and storytelling can enhance the understanding of value.The future of value mapping involves interactive experiences.Like this video if you found valueShare with friends who crave authentic discussionsComment below with your thoughts – let's keep the conversation going!This episode isn't just about business. It's about human connection, emotional intelligence, and waking up to the fact that you already bring something powerful to the table, you just might not be seeing it yet.Whether you're a leader, artist, activist, entrepreneur—or just someone trying to figure out what the hell matters—you'll walk away from this one with fresh perspective, new tools, and maybe even a few uncomfortable truths (the good kind).

Genuine Love 03 || "is...Radically Different" (Luke 6:27-36), by Jasper Swaney, March 16, 2025. Visit summitwestolive.org for more info about SUMMIT CHURCH in West Olive, MI.
Conservatives and liberals will often use similar language about values like freedom and community, but they mean radically different things. Every week it seems like a progressive politician is declaring that some foreign group, like soldiers in Ukraine or illegal immigrants, is actually more in line with American values than the people who actually make up America. We'll be diving into the ideas of proximity and particularity and why they are so critical to understanding the divide in values between the political Right and Left.

They felt they were being sold hope that couldn't be promised, by doctors who told them they had no answers. The entire journey didn't sit right with them, so they went looking for other avenues. Along the journey, they discovered an approach to fertility that was natural, cooperative, faithful, and left them feeling peaceful. Listen to Lindsey and Dan as they share their vulnerable story of growing their family, submitting their fertility to God, and finally feeling knowledgable and at peace.

68 days to go until January 20th, when Donald Trump will be sworn into the presidency to serve a second term ... thanks for sticking with us as we cover this complicated period of transition. On today's Countdown 2024: we're focusing on foreign and military policy under the incoming Trump administration ... which means asking about the fate of Ukraine, the fate of NATO and whether a Fox News host is up to the task of leading the world's biggest and most advanced military.

How do we stand with Jesus against a world that too often tramples the best interests of women and the needs of children, that regularly ignores the plight of the hungry, the houseless, the addicted, the stranger, and the outcast?” After all, the world we inhabit wasn't created just to bless people like us; it was created to carve out space so that all whom God loves can live and flourish with dignity. And if we want to be like God, our vocation is to learn to participate in such a world—not to try to remake it in our own image. https://www.notion.so/derekpenwell/A-Radically-Different-World-Mark-10-2-16-1178fca125b9809c8b9eceef6f2b60fb?pvs=4Subscribe to us on iTunes!

Intellectual honesty is a rare commodity in the divide between Israelis and Palestinians. It is even rarer with the rise of Jewish ultra-nationalism and a generation of Israelis and Palestinians nurtured on prejudiced, biased, and often supremacist perceptions of the other. The irony is that historically, it was far-right militants, and currently, it is fringe left-wing intellectuals who displayed intellectual honesty, even if their conclusions differ radically.

Weaving the Future Podcast is a passion project birthed at the height of the pandemic, and the podcast episodes I released at this time are very close to my heart. They capture deep reflections on the kind of world I want to live in and my role in shaping it. The podcast has mostly been on hiatus over the past few years as I grappled with some massive changes in my life. In the background, I have actively continued to live the questions that have shaped this work. In this episode, I reflect on the question of How can we live and work in radically different ways? In particular, how do we move toward lives that are nourishing, just, compassionate, meaningful, sacred, joyful, sensual….? How do we return to a sense of belonging with ourselves, other humans, the web of life and the land?I start with some deep and vulnerable storytelling about the last decade of my life, in which I have orchestrated some extraordinary transformation in my life and my approach to work. I share insights on living and working in radically different ways, emphasizing embodying deep love and nourishment for oneself over urgency and fear. The episode ends with an open discussion inviting some of the people most dear to me who attended the live recording to share feedback, questions and suggestions for future episodes.If you would like to learn more about me and my work, check out:www.weavingthefuture.netwww.tapestrycollectiveco-op
Hashoshi interviews Jarek Hirniak, Protocol Architect at Axo, to discuss the universal trading protocol that uses the eUTXO blockchain model to its fullest extent. While you may be familiar with DEXs like Uniswap that use account-based blockchains like Ethereum, building DeFi primitives on a blockchain like Cardano offer a wildly different set of both opportunities and constraints; these allow developers to build a variety of unique types of decentralized financial products that are only possible in this different environment. Learn more about Axo by reading the paper or visiting their website: Paper - https://www.axo.trade/whitepaper.pdf Website - https://www.axo.trade ☕️ Subscribe to the Crypto over Coffee newsletter for weekly alpha, analysis and more! https://cryptoovercoffee.beehiiv.com/subscribe Takeaways AXO is a decentralized finance project that aims to solve the challenges of building an automated market maker (AMM) by leveraging the UTXO model. The UTXO model used by Cardano allows for independent actors to define their own rules for trading, leading to more efficient markets. AXO's X-Lang is a domain-specific language that allows users to define trading rules and create programmable swaps. AXO plans to expand its functionality to include lending and borrowing, options, futures, perpetuals, and prediction markets. Axo is focused on the evolution of X-Lang and the potential for decentralization in trading protocols. Composability and user experience are key considerations in DeFi, and Axo aims to address these challenges. Axo is working on user education and onboarding to make DeFi more accessible to a wider audience. Axo has a unique approach to yield farming and is developing a new model to reward liquidity providers. Users can start using Axo by visiting the Axo website and exploring the basic and pro modes. Scalability challenges in Cardano have been addressed by Axo through the use of the EUTXO model and the OME network.

Have you ever heard the cynical phrase, "No good deed goes unpunished"?This seems like a relevant comment as we read the final Beatitude in Matthew5:10. Why would someone who demonstrates the qualities of verses 3-9 bepersecuted in verse 10? The simple response is that the sinful flesh does notlike the righteousness of God. When individuals, or rulers of this world, believethe righteousness of God is a threat to their own ambitions, they will persecutebelievers. Yet, there is another response to these beatitudes, the response offaith as people discover God anew (verse 16). Genuinely living out our faith willelicit both of these responses from others. Is this positive response worth therisk of persecution?

The future of work doesn't have to be an extension of today's reality.This is the first installment in Strange New Work, a new series from What Works about imagining radically different ways of working and doing business.In this episode, I take a closer look at speculative fiction and its role in the collective imaginary. Is science fiction all space operas and apocalyptic battles? Not hardly. Science fiction isn't really about the future.

But it's easy to get our thinking disordered and end up not feeling or acting in healthy ways. In this series we are going to take a careful look at what Romans 12 has to say about the ways we think, feel and act and how we can experience better mental health.

There are plenty of judicial analytics and litigation prediction tools on the market. They may have differences in execution and focus, but the general rule of thumb is that they look at a judge's past rulings and opinions to predict how that judge might rule on a similar motion or case in the future. For instance, you can look up how a particular judge on prior motions to dismiss on certain employment discrimination cases to get an idea how they might rule on a similar one currently pending in their courtroom. That knowledge can be important for lawyers.

Who doesn't want this... To come up with smart solutions for relevant challenges that are immediately embraced by the end-users. Well, in this week's episode of the Show, Victor Udoewa shares a radical approach to the design process that increases the chance you'll actually accomplish this. But first, let's quickly look at why solutions don't get adopted. It's often not due to bad intentions. Many times it has to do with the fact that a wrong judgment call has been made about what's important. Because as a design professional, you're -implicitly- imposing your ideas, values, and norms onto the process. You are in a strong position of power, whether you like it or not. The problem is that this leads to solutions derived from a single -often mainstream- worldview. Again, this isn't something that professionals set out to do. It happens because of the nature of the current design process. So is there something we can do about this? According to Victor, there is! We, starting with the design professional, have to give up power. The community and the users must lead the design process, from start to end, from top to bottom. But can this truly be done, or is it just wishful thinking? And is there still a role for the professional designer when this happens? Victor has a thing or two to say about these and some other key questions. So if you'd also like to work on more meaningful challenges and come to more impactful solutions, click the link below and soak in this inspiring conversation. It's great to get people on the Show who challenge our common design practices like Victor. And to be able to share these stories with you. Enjoy the conversation and keep making a positive impact :) --- [ GUIDE ] --- 00:00 Welcome to episode 154 04:45 Who is Victor 05:30 Lightning round 08:45 The episode take-away 09:45 What is radical participatory design 15:15 Victor's journey 19:15 The benefits 24:00 Barriers to adoption 27:15 The response from the design community 31:45 The role of the design professional 37:45 Where does it start 41:45 The tensions 45:45 What are good challenges 52:45 The evolution 55:45 Taking the first step 1:01:45 A smart hack 1:02:45 What awaits you 1:05:15 Closing thoughts --- [ LINKS ] --- https://www.linkedin.com/in/udoewa/ Decolonizing Methodologies: Research and Indigenous Peoples - https://amzn.to/3yHlYht Research Is Ceremony: Indigenous Research Methods - https://amzn.to/3ObjtcZ Sand Talk - https://amzn.to/3O4Linp Indigenous Research Methodologies - https://amzn.to/3P6NwEh Applying Indigenous Research Methods: Storying with Peoples and Communities - https://amzn.to/3PcgJxt --- [ BOOKS ] --- Designs for the Pluriverse - https://amzn.to/3P7pDMK Stand Your Ground - https://amzn.to/3RvkvDN Fledgling (fiction, Afrofuturism) - https://amzn.to/3AKbsc9 Art of Gathering - https://amzn.to/3IJum4P Black Futures - https://amzn.to/3AWw4Oe Latinx Rising (An anthology) - https://amzn.to/3uLxs2q A Promised Land - https://amzn.to/3PnjDPC His Name Is George Floyd - https://amzn.to/3yGi1cV Soul of a Woman - https://amzn.to/3IBUtdP The Sum of Us - https://amzn.to/3PrGLMV Thinking in Systems - https://amzn.to/3nZoCdN The Bennet Women (fiction) - https://amzn.to/3P908um --- [ HOW TO EXPLAIN SERVICE DESIGN ] --- Learn what it takes to get your clients, colleagues, managers, CEOs and even grandmas as excited about service design as you are. https://servicedesignshow.com/free-course
