What does it mean to glorify God through art?For many artists, the desire to glorify God can become an expectation that their work should communicate an explicitly religious message. But what happens when that expectation begins to constrict the artist? What if our attempts to make art that clearly communicates faith actually prevent the art from becoming genuinely transformative?In this solo meditation, Stephen Roach explores the relationship between Christian faith, artistic freedom, and the glory of God. Drawing on the work of Hans Rookmaaker and Flannery O'Connor, as well as the strange prophetic performances of Ezekiel, Isaiah, and Jeremiah, Stephen asks whether art needs to be explicitly religious in order to be spiritually meaningful.Stephen revisits the story of Paolo Veronese and his controversial painting of The Last Supper, which brought him before the Catholic Inquisition in 1573. The story raises an important question for artists and faith communities alike: what happens when our desire to protect familiar expressions of faith leaves no room for artistic imagination?Perhaps glorifying God through art doesn't always mean making art that is easily recognizable as Christian. Perhaps sometimes it means following our creative curiosity into places that are unfamiliar, challenging, ambiguous, or even strange.In a world where familiar religious imagery can become wallpaper, what might happen if we made room for art that surprises us again?In this episode:Rethinking what it means to "glorify God" through artWhy treating art as a "tool" for evangelism can strip it of its powerThe shocking performance art of Ezekiel, Isaiah, and JeremiahPaolo Veronese's controversial Last SupperHow religious conformity can restrict artistic creativityWhy faith communities need to cultivate curiosity rather than judgmentThe danger of familiar truths becoming spiritually dullABOUT THE HOSTStephen Roach is the host of Makers and Mystics, a podcast exploring the intersection of creativity, faith, and the human experience. He is an artist, curator, poet, and musician. He is currently writing How to See Invisible Things, a book exploring the future of art and faith. Stephen has spent over a decade advocating for creativity as a spiritual discipline and calling.RESOURCES AND LINKSArt Needs No Justification by Hans Rookmaaker — the book referenced for its argument that art has intrinsic value apart from evangelistic use Five Creativity Killers and How to Avoid Them by Stephen Roach — Stephen's booklet where he first wrote about Paolo Veronese's trialDisclaimer: This episode is a case for unconventional art, but I want to be clear that it is not a disparagement of sacred art: work created specifically for devotional or liturgical environments and practices.

Tahir talks about getting older and reconsidering what success actually means: Does he still want maximum Hollywood fame, or would making great work for an audience that genuinely cares be enough? That leads to a conversation about comedy as a craft, short attention spans, IRL streaming, artistic freedom, celebrity, privacy, and why artists like Yasiin Bey, Erykah Badu, Curren$y, and Terence Crawford represent a different kind of success.Join our Patreon now!! https://www.patreon.com/DamInternetYouScary00:00 Humanoid Robots Are Getting Way Too Fast01:33 What Happens When AI Meets the Robots?04:42 Economic Anxiety and the “Stop Paying Bills” Plan11:07 The World Humanoid Robot Games13:17 Our Apocalypse Plans Have a Problem14:43 Would You Get Robot Body Parts?17:17 The Great Bill-Paying Boycott Debate20:03 Mint Mobile22:44 People Are Smoking Scorpions?24:22 A Different Way to Think About Giving26:45 Texas Roadhouse Allegations29:55 Why Tahir Is Tired of Eating Out30:30 Tipping, Wages and Restaurant Prices36:45 PrizePicks39:09 The Former Power Ranger Burglary Story41:18 Pitching the “Robber Rangers” Movie43:47 LA Restaurant Health Closures45:09 The Problem With Food Delivery Apps48:00 Could Tahir Leave Hollywood for a Farm?50:02 GLD52:05 Rethinking the Dream53:33 Getting Older Changes Your Definition of Success55:30 Drake, Yasiin Bey and Art vs. Celebrity57:15 Finding the Right Level of Fame1:00:49 Quince1:03:54 Why Some Concert Crowds Feel Different1:04:51 IRL Streaming and Clout Culture1:05:31 Comedy Still Requires the Work1:08:00 Every Entertainment Industry Has This Problem1:09:00 Terence Crawford and Success on Your Own Terms1:09:42 Knowing When Enough Is Enough1:12:16 One Last “Stop Paying Bills” Plan1:14:15 Patrick and Tahir's Upcoming Projects1:16:48 Outro

“My lens around style doesn't have anything to do with style anymore — it's about physicality,” says stylist and fashion consultant Stacy London. “What do I want to be able to do? How do I keep myself strong?” Stacy's message has resonated for many women, and for this episode, she joins Dr. Shoshana Ungerleider, host of TED Health, at TED2025 for a special live conversation about why women are so embarrassed to talk about aging. For Stacy, aging became a chance to reassess her relationship to her body, and her experience with menopause and spinal surgery shifted her focus to health and wellbeing.

Google's purchase of Spirit Airlines' data out of bankruptcy signaled a shift in how the tech world values real-world datasets. Although compute and models get much of the attention, in this landscape, it's data that is a company's protective moat. Eon CEO / Co-Founder Ofir Ehrlich and President / Co-Founder Gonen Stein join Elad Gil to talk about how Eon is redefining cloud backup into a secure data foundation designed to power and protect enterprise AI. Ofir and Gonen discuss why historical enterprise data is in demand by AI labs, and how Eon facilitates access to scattered and locked data across business units through providing the mapping, classification, and access controls needed to connect it into AI workflows. They also explore how traditional ransomware defenses must now protect against rogue AI agents with legitimate system permissions, concerns around the influx of autonomous agents and non-human identities, and the implications for the breakneck speed of AI adoption compared to the slowness of the cloud era.  Sign up for new podcasts every week.

Mike Davis died in 2022, but his work is more urgent than ever. As record temperatures, fires, floods, El Niño, and megadroughts threaten the planet, we hear his prescient 1995 talk, “Reconceptualizing the Environment.” Mike challenged the idea of “natural disaster,” showing how market-driven development put Los Angeles in harm's way while shifting costs onto the public and the poor. Our sponsor Equator magazine is running an online reading group of Mike's Late Victorian Holocausts, his landmark study of how climate shocks, empire, and the world market combined to produce mass famine and deepen global inequality. Check it out at equator.org/events Jacobin Radio with Suzi Weissman features conversations with leading thinkers and activists, with a focus on labor, the economy, and protest movements.

Success can be a powerful motivator. But for people who have spent their lives chasing the next goal, achievement can eventually become its own source of pressure. In this episode, we discuss this important topic with Caleb Campbell, former NFL linebacker, West Point graduate, Army officer, keynote speaker, and author of the upcoming book Unstriving: 12 Lessons on Authentic Success From a Recovering Over-Achiever, releasing September 22. Caleb shares how a lifetime of pursuing achievement ultimately forced him to reconsider what success actually meant. The goals he worked so hard to reach didn't necessarily deliver the freedom or fulfillment he expected, leading him to explore a different approach — one focused less on constant striving and more on alignment, self-awareness, and intentional living… The conversation explores: Why achievement doesn't always lead to fulfillment. The mindset and identity of the chronic overachiever. How fear of failure can shape our definition of success. The relationship between performance, self-worth, and identity. Drawing from his experiences in professional football, the military, and leadership development, Caleb brings a unique perspective to the pressures faced by high performers. His work centers on helping individuals and organizations develop the internal capacity to navigate uncertainty, sustain performance, and respond to pressure with greater clarity.

How does DIRFloortime® meet autistic needs in a neurodiversity-affirming way?In this third episode of the Rethinking Autism Therapy mini-series, Daria Brown is joined by autistic self-advocate, researcher, and ICDL Board President Dr. Emile Gouws to explore how the DIR® model aligns with autistic lived experience and why relationships, respect, and understanding are essential for meaningful development.Drawing on his own experiences growing up as a nonspeaking autistic child, Emile shares the challenges of being viewed through a medical-model lens, the trauma of compliance-based interventions, and the profound impact of finally being seen, understood, and supported through a relationship-based approach. Together, Daria and Emile discuss how DIRFloortime® differs from approaches focused on normalization by emphasizing individual differences, emotional development, authentic communication, and connection.The conversation highlights how autistic development may look different from neurotypical development, why practitioners must be mindful of ableist assumptions, and how play, co-regulation, and meaningful relationships create the conditions for growth. They also explore the role of neurodiversity, self-advocacy, sensory differences, and the Double Empathy Problem in shaping a more affirming understanding of autism.Learn more:

Housing affordability often gets reduced to a few familiar factors: home prices, mortgage rates, construction costs and household income. But Jay Knight believes the conversation needs to start much earlier, with the rules that determine what developers can build in the first place.  Jay Knight, a housing advocate and developer, joined host Carol Morgan on Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio to discuss his new book, “Zoned Out: How Cities and Counties Make Homes Unaffordable.” The book examines how zoning, land-use regulations, permitting requirements and development standards can increase costs and limit housing choices.  At the heart of Knight's argument is a simple question: What does an affordable home actually mean?  Defining Affordable Housing  The term “affordable” means different things to different people. For Knight, the concept is practical: A home should be affordable enough for a municipal employee to purchase using only their own salary. That includes teachers, police officers, firefighters and nurses, as well as workers in similar income ranges.  What does that translate to? Knight believes the industry could produce a home for approximately $225,000 with 1,100 square feet, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, no garage and a 35-foot detached lot. The home would not offer every feature found in today's larger new homes, but it could provide something increasingly difficult to find: an opportunity for a working household to become a homeowner.  “That's what ‘Zoned Out’ is for,” Knight said. “It's to explain that homes are not expensive because builders will only build big, expensive homes on big, expensive lots. They're expensive because the municipalities will only allow us to build big, expensive homes on big, expensive lots.”  How Zoning Can Drive Up the Cost of a Home  Zoning codes establish minimum lot sizes, density requirements and other development standards. But the written code often represents only the beginning of the process.  Consider a hypothetical 100-acre property designated for two homes per acre. On paper, that could mean 200 homes. In practice, buffers, roads, stormwater infrastructure and other requirements can significantly shrink the usable acreage. Once a municipality calculates density based on the remaining land, minimum lot sizes can further limit the number of homes a developer can build.  A property that initially appears capable of supporting 200 lots could end up supporting only 140. That change does not simply affect the number of homes. It increases the land cost assigned to every remaining lot. That additional cost eventually moves through the development and construction process and reaches the home buyer.  Lot dimensions can create another layer of expense. A 60-foot lot could cost roughly $100,000, while increasing the width to 70 feet could add another $10,000. Once the developer and builder account for their own costs and margins, that seemingly small change could add $16,000 to $20,000 to the final price of a home.  The result illustrates Knight's broader point: Small decisions made early in the development process can have a significant impact on the price a buyer ultimately pays.  Small Regulatory Changes Can Have a Big Affordability Impact  The impact becomes even more significant when those costs affect a buyer's ability to qualify for a mortgage.  Using National Association of Home Builders data and extrapolating it to Georgia, Knight estimates that every $1,000 increase in a home's price could cause roughly 4,100 Georgians to no longer qualify for that home. At $15,000, that increase could potentially put a home out of reach for approximately 60,000 Georgians.  What Happened to Missing Middle Housing?  Older neighborhoods often included a mix of housing types, from larger homes and smaller single-family houses to apartments, townhomes and other forms of “missing middle” housing. Modern zoning frequently separates those housing types into different districts.  That division can limit housing options within a neighborhood and contribute to socioeconomic segregation, which separates people into different neighborhoods based on class and wealth.  A home that sold for $380,000 a few years ago may sit next to a new home that costs $800,000 today. When regulations require new homes to match the size, lot dimensions and features of more expensive existing homes, the community can lose the ability to introduce more attainable homes.  That does not necessarily reflect a lack of demand for smaller or less expensive homes. Instead, the rules may prevent developers from building them.  Moving From Housing Problems to Housing Solutions  ‘Zoned Out’ does more than identify challenges. Knight also outlines potential solutions, including reforms that could make the development process more predictable and bring lots to market faster.  The Georgia Residential Land Development Council, which Knight helped form, recently worked on land disturbance permit reform. The effort took about 15 months and required legislative support, but the result was an important step toward reducing development costs and increasing the supply of buildable lots.  More lots reaching the market could create downward pressure on land prices, which could help builders produce more attainable homes.  Knight also advocates for by-right zoning, which would allow a development that complies with an adopted future land-use plan to move forward without another lengthy and uncertain zoning process. This approach could give developers more certainty while allowing municipalities to establish standards through their comprehensive planning process.  Rethinking the Rules Behind Housing Affordability  At its core, “Zoned Out” asks communities to look beyond the final price of a home and examine the decisions that shape it.  Minimum lot sizes, density calculations, development requirements, mandated amenities, design standards and lengthy approval processes can each add costs. Together, they can make attainable housing increasingly difficult to build. The solution starts with recognizing that the current system does not have to remain the status quo.  “It doesn't have to be this way,” Knight said. “It's just changing our mind.”  That message extends beyond builders and developers. It challenges planners, elected officials and communities to consider how local decisions affect the people who live and work there.  As the cost of housing continues to shape conversations across metro Atlanta and the country, Zoned Out offers another way to look at the problem: Before asking why homes cost so much, communities may need to examine what their rules allow the industry to build.  Explore the Ideas Behind “Zoned Out” “Zoned Out: How Cities and Counties Make Homes Unaffordable” is available on Amazon in Kindle and paperback formats, with audio and hardcover editions planned for a later release.  For more insights from Knight on zoning, land development, permitting reform and the future of housing affordability, check out this recent Radio episode.

For decades, the standard HR playbook has been attract, retain, develop. Jason Desentz thinks the order is wrong.As Chief Human Resources Officer of Toshiba America, Desentz starts with the people already inside the business. In technical fields where experienced employees can take a year or more to train, retention is not simply an HR metric. It affects how quickly a company can grow, respond to new demand and capitalize on emerging markets. That equation is becoming even more important as AI infrastructure drives investment in energy and advanced technology while manufacturers compete for a limited pool of skilled technical talent. Desentz brings an unusually business-first perspective to HR. He evaluates people decisions against ROI, challenges his team to experiment with AI, and argues that HR leaders need to understand the technology, operations and economics of the companies they serve. At the same time, his approach is deeply human: listen to employees, get creative about the employee experience, invest in development and give people opportunities to try something new. From rebuilding pathways into manufacturing to preparing 6,000 Toshiba employees across the Americas for AI, this conversation explores what changes when people strategy becomes business strategy. In this episode:Why the return of U.S. manufacturing is colliding with a technical talent pipeline weakened by decades of offshoringHow AI-driven data centers are creating new workforce demand across energy, infrastructure and field serviceWhy Desentz puts retention before attraction when thinking about talent strategyHow Toshiba evaluates the ROI of retaining highly specialized employees who can take more than a year to trainWhy CHROs need to understand the CEO, operations, technology and business economics, not just HRHow high-school co-ops, technical education and experiential learning can rebuild pathways into manufacturing careers3 Big Takeaways1. Your workforce strategy is part of your growth strategy. Toshiba sees significant opportunity as AI and data-center investment drives demand for energy generation, storage and infrastructure. But capturing that opportunity requires having specialized technical talent available when demand arrives. For a CHRO, workforce capacity becomes a strategic constraint that has to be planned alongside growth.2. Calculate the business value of retaining technical expertise. Some Toshiba field-service employees require more than a year of training to service complex equipment. Desentz estimates losing one could cost roughly $100,000, before accounting for the time required to rebuild that expertise. That changes the economics of retention: spending creatively to improve an employee's experience can be far less expensive than replacing specialized capability.3. Build AI capability by giving employees real problems to solve. Toshiba launched a six-course AI-readiness curriculum through Toshiba University, but Desentz didn't stop at instruction. His HR organization formed teams to build AI agents around actual business needs, including payroll, attendance and recruiting. Employees learned the technology by applying it, while Toshiba surfaced tools it could potentially deploy in the business.We want to hear from you!

With AI evolving month-on-month and boardrooms demanding instant tech strategies, the old binary choice of “build versus buy” is starting to look like a trap. On this episode of The Zero100 Podcast, Justin Gillebo (Senior Director, Research & Advisory) sits down with Kelly Coutinho (VP, Research & Advisory) and Rahul George (Director, Data Products) to unpack why enterprise tech strategy has shifted into a new triad: build, buy, or partner. Tune in as they explore why building has become cheap while ownership hasn't, how to evaluate when a “bolt-on” AI solution makes sense, and why your ultimate goal shouldn't be predicting 2029, but building the operational agility to adapt when it arrives.

Sarah Hoover is a bestselling author, art historian and cultural critic whose memoir, The Motherload: Episodes from the Brink of Motherhood, offers a brutally candid account of pregnancy, childbirth, postpartum depression and the complicated realities of becoming a mother.In this episode, Sarah joins me for an honest, funny and at times uncomfortable conversation about the parts of motherhood women still aren't supposed to say out loud. We talk about her traumatic first birth, struggling to bond with her son, postpartum depression, rage and resentment, and what it feels like when the experience you were told would be the happiest of your life is anything but. We also get into maternal ambivalence, the pressure to be endlessly grateful, losing your identity after having a baby, and why admitting that motherhood is incredibly hard doesn't mean you don't love your children.But this conversation is definitely not all heavy. We also get into beauty standards and how they've changed, our complicated relationship with aging and wanting to look good, makeup, personal style, the aesthetics we're collectively tired of, and what our beauty choices say about the culture we're living in. Sarah has such a sharp, funny perspective on the expectations placed on women—from how we're supposed to mother to how we're supposed to look—and we talk about all of it.It's ultimately a conversation about motherhood, beauty, identity, culture and the things women are often thinking but don't always feel comfortable saying out loud.Thanks to my sponsors:Go to CLEARSTEM.com/WELL and use code WELL at checkout to get 15% off your first order.Use code ARIELLE15 for $15 off your first purchase at thirdlove.comVisit http://get.justthrivehealth.com/pages/well for a free 90-day supply of their new Digestive Bitters when you start a 90-day Just Thrive probiotic subscriptionHead to dose daily.co/WELL to get 35% off your first subscriptionDownload the Vinted app for free and start listingOrion is offering our listeners 15% off at Orion.com/well.This episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

California's only remaining active nuclear power plant, Diablo Canyon on California's Central Coast, was supposed to shutter in 2025, but a series of heat waves and stress on the grid prompted state leaders to keep it running through 2030. And now, as demand for electricity skyrockets, a new push is growing to reverse the state's decision to abandon nuclear power, and to extend the plant's life through 2045. We'll talk to advocates who have been fighting the nuclear plant since the very beginning about the risks of continuing operations, and from those who believe nuclear power is necessary to meet California's mandate to switch to 100% carbon-free energy by 2045. Guests: Jane Swanson, president and spokesperson, Mothers for Peace Michael Wara, policy director for the Sustainability Accelerator at the Doerr School of Sustainability and director of the Climate and Energy Policy Program and senior research scholar at the Woods Institute for the Environment, Stanford University Adrian Covert, senior vice president of public policy, Bay Area Council Laura Klivans, climate reporter, KQED Learn more about your ad choices.

Steve Magness and John Marcus rant about the “recovery industrial complex,” arguing that while recovery knowledge has improved, monetized gadgets can waste money, create psychological fragility, and give a false sense of control—especially as aging brings non-negotiable limits. They emphasize prioritizing foundational recovery: consistent good sleep (the key “canary”), adequate fueling and hydration, and managing…

After studying generosity together, we started taking a closer look at our own relationship with money, possessions, and giving—and noticed a few things we didn't expect.In this episode, we talk honestly about greed in a hyper-consumeristic world, the ways we're each still growing, and how even something as good as “being a good steward” can sometimes become a reason to hold too tightly to what we have. This isn't a polished lesson on generosity—it's a conversation about what we're noticing, confronting, and rethinking as we try to make generosity a deeper value in our lives and marriage.Click to join the interest list for Jenna's wives course Click here for the interest listSupport the show-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------GRAB Jenna's Summer Course Here >>> Become a sponsor of our shows

Send us Fan MailBig changes are ahead for Jayson Quiñones.In this episode of The FORGE Truth Podcast, Pete Alwinson and Jayson talk candidly about the next chapter in Jayson's life and ministry. Jayson is stepping back from the podcast for a season as he prepares to finish his Master of Divinity and lead his church through a major restart built around a church of house churches model.Jayson explains why a difficult season in ministry forced him to reconsider how church should work, how prayer and trusted mentors helped clarify his direction, and why he believes returning to a more decentralized model of church life can create deeper community, stronger pastoral leadership, and more intentional discipleship.Pete and Jayson also discuss the value of serious theological education, the importance of pastors being both shepherds and students of Scripture, the realities of leading a local church, and why Christians should be praying for their pastors.At the heart of the conversation is a simple challenge for every man: Kingdom men are called to make disciples.

End chaos in your firm—300+ peers use this framework. Free video here: https://www.businessofarchitecture.com/framework In this live talk at Westminster University, Rion Willard shares a sharp, practical look at one issue many architects feel but rarely name: why good work does not always lead to a healthy business. He speaks from direct experience, moving from practice into advising firms, and he challenges some deeply held beliefs about fees, value, and the role of money in architecture. But this episode is not just about charging more. It is about a bigger shift in how architects think, speak, and act when business decisions carry real weight. Rion points to a few hidden patterns that quietly shape results, and he shows why some common habits may be costing firms far more than they realize. If you have ever felt tension around pricing, growth, or client expectations, this conversation will give you plenty to think about—and a new lens for what may be possible. The quiet belief that may be hurting your fees more than the market Why one common way of billing can create far more stress than most architects realize The subtle shift that can change how clients see your value before numbers even come up Resource: https://www.businessofarchitecture.com/smart-practice-project-fee-budget-calculator

What if the clothes touching your skin every day are quietly exposing you to chemicals you never agreed to wear? In this eye-opening conversation, Chris Kolbe pulls back the curtain on the plastic-heavy clothing industry, revealing the hidden chemicals, questionable dyes, PFAS, and “recycled” materials that can turn your closet into a potential source of exposure. We dive into the most important swaps to make, how to identify truly cleaner fabrics and underwear, why European standards often differ from those in the U.S., and whether you really have to sacrifice performance to choose healthier clothing. Plus, Chris explains the science behind HyperNatural's innovative Hyper-Cool Jade™ technology and shares his vision for transforming the apparel industry from the inside out.Chris Kolbe is the cognizant founder of HyperNatural, which he launched in 2022 after recognizing the overlooked health potential of bio-based materials in an apparel industry dominated by plastic-heavy synthetics. He saw what consumers were up against: the “Perfect Problem” of opaque systems pushing chemical-loaded performance fabrics into closets and onto skin with little awareness. Through HyperNatural, he is building a premium wellness apparel brand and bio-based materials platform powered by patented nano fiber technology called Hyper-Cool Jade™ to create a cleaner, higher-performing alternative to the synthetic / chemical status quo.With more than 30 years of experience across apparel, retail, merchandising, design, and brand building, Chris has held senior executive leadership roles at some of the industry's most recognized brands and retailers, including Polo Ralph Lauren, Urban Outfitters, J.Crew, and Kohl's, as well as serving as President of Lands' End.SHOW NOTES:0:38 Welcome to the podcast!4:23 About Chris Kolbe5:32 Welcome him to the show!6:30 The state of our clothing supply chain8:42 The real problem with plastic12:38 Beware of the $20 t-shirt15:16 The most important swaps to make17:15 Can you avoid PFAS?19:06 European vs American standards23:50 Natural “biomaterials” to look for26:24 Hypercool Jade27:44 Toxic vs safe dyes30:11 Hypernatural philosophy & health benefits32:05 Safe standards to look for when shopping37:45 Clean underwear40:10 Golf + feedback from our husbands!42:15 Why you can have both performance and clean45:29 What we want in clean athleisure48:25 How to create change in the industry49:25 Is “recycled clothing” clean?54:34 More about Hypernatural55:43 His final advice58:05 Thanks for tuning in!RESOURCES: https://hypernaturalstyle.com/IG: @hypernaturalstyleTikTok: @hypernaturalstyleSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/biohacker-babes-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

One camp says your reflux is too much stomach acid. The other says it's too little. Dr. Ken Brown says both camps are arguing over the wrong control knob.In this solo episode, the board-certified gastroenterologist makes the case that reflux was never an acid problem - it's a containment problem. Acid belongs in the stomach, and the real question nobody asks is why it left in the first place.Dr. Brown walks through the mechanics: the stomach as a one-way muscular pump, the lower esophageal sphincter as a nightclub bouncer who's started letting people back out the front door, the "acid puddle" that pools when the stomach won't empty, and the inflammation cycle that weakens the valve and keeps the whole thing self-sustaining. He looks at what 37 years of proton pump inhibitors have actually delivered - eight-plus drugs, an 83% rise in documented GERD, and a side effect list that includes bone, B12, magnesium, and kidney concerns - and points out that PPIs don't improve gastric emptying, don't reduce abdominal pressure, and don't strengthen the sphincter.He also tells his own story: 30 years of reflux, a four-centimeter hiatal hernia, grade C esophagitis, every natural remedy on the shelf, and the eight-year project to build something that addressed the mechanism instead of the symptom - the four-polyphenol Re:Flux formula and the clinical trial behind it, recently published in the Open Journal of Gastroenterology.In this episode:- Why the "too much vs. too little acid" debate misses the mechanism- How your stomach actually works as a one-way cycling pump- Transient lower esophageal sphincter relaxations, explained without the jargon- The acid puddle, and why gastric sleeve and GLP-1 patients get it- What stomach acid is genuinely for (B12, minerals, pathogen defense)- The three questions to ask instead of "how much acid?"- What PPIs do well, and what they were never designed to do- The HAND polyphenols and the trial resultsChapters: 0:00 The wrong debate · 2:45 Two camps · 4:15 37 years of PPIs · 7:48 The one-way pump · 12:39 The acid puddle · 14:18 Why the valve opens · 17:15 Why you need acid · 18:59 Three better questions · 21:08 What PPIs can't do · 23:07 Dr. Brown's own 30 years · 26:20 Building the formula · 28:40 Trial results · 33:45 Acid is not the villainEducational content only - not medical advice.

Think about the last time you faced a major change or setback. Who did you turn to? That instinct, that pull toward others when things get hard, isn't weakness, it's strategy. Carlee Wolfe, a global leader in talent and organizational effectiveness at Hyatt Hotels Corporation, joins host Sreemedha to talk about why community may be the most underrated tool in leadership and change, what it actually looks like to lean on your network instead of pretending to have all the answers, and how to keep human connection alive even as AI reshapes how we work. About the Guest: Carlee Wolfe is Associate Vice President of Leader Development and Organizational Effectiveness at Hyatt Hotels Corporation, with more than 20 years of experience in talent management, leadership development, and change management. Her background includes leadership roles at Under Armour and the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Committee, and she coaches leaders and job seekers on navigating change with clarity, curiosity, and confidence. Key Takeaways: The old idea that leaders must have all the answers is outdated, openness about what you don't know yet can be a strength, not a weakness. Build your own "personal board of directors," the 5 to 7 people closest to you who shape your life, and revisit who's on it every six months. When you feel isolated, get curious first: why does this feel this way right now, and what am I trying to do that feels solitary? Community isn't just your closest circle, it includes coworkers, coaches, and even online spaces where you learn and engage. With AI reshaping work, the human edge is intentional collaboration, using AI as a tool while doubling down on how teams think and innovate together.

Grace is a gift—not something we earn. But if we've already received grace, what role does effort play in our walk with Jesus? This Sunday, we'll continue our new Abide in Me series and explore the difference between being saved by grace and being formed into the image of Christ, and why following Jesus requires both surrender and intentional effort.

In episode 337, Mike Nemer welcomes Jonathan Criss, founder of Vital Lyfe, for a conversation about rethinking access to clean water. Jonathan shares how his experience at SpaceX helped shape Vital Lyfe's mission to decentralize water purification through a portable reverse osmosis device designed for use in maritime, overlanding, RV, homestead, military, and humanitarian settings. Jonathan explains how the company's upcoming Access system can turn ocean water, freshwater, or brackish water into drinkable water in under 30 seconds, with power options that include A/C, DC, and solar. The conversation explores the environmental impact of small-scale desalination, lower brine output, disaster response potential, and the broader future of resilient water infrastructure. In this episode: How Vital Lyfe is approaching global water scarcity through decentralized purification Why portable reverse osmosis could matter for boaters, RV owners, homesteaders, and overlanders What makes the Access system different from traditional large-scale desalination plants How clean water technology can support disaster response and humanitarian relief The connection between space-industry manufacturing experience and sustainability innovation Become a Green Insider Be sure to subscribe to The Green Insider, powered by ERENEWABLE, wherever you get your podcasts—and don't forget to leave us a five‑star rating!

What if your genes aren't controlling your destiny nearly as much as you've been taught to believe? And what if many of the patterns shaping your health, relationships, behavior, and perception of the world were programmed into you before you were even consciously aware of them? In this powerful conversation, Darin sits down with stem cell biologist and bestselling author Dr. Bruce Lipton to explore his theories around epigenetics, subconscious programming, consciousness, stress, evolution, and the mind-body connection. Bruce also opens up about his experience with tongue cancer and how it forced him to confront the very ideas about biology and belief that he had spent decades teaching. Together, they explore Bruce's claim that we spend as much as 95% of our lives operating through subconscious programs, many of which were downloaded during early childhood. Bruce explains why he believes our perception of the environment influences biology, why taking responsibility for unconscious patterns is essential to reclaiming personal power, and how those programs can be rewritten. The conversation expands beyond individual health into humanity itself, challenging the cultural story of "survival of the fittest" and exploring cooperation, community, consciousness, spirituality, environmental collapse, and why Bruce believes the upheaval we're experiencing may actually represent an evolutionary turning point. What You'll Learn How Bruce's experience with tongue cancer challenged him to apply his own teachings Why Bruce believes subconscious programming controls much of our everyday behavior How childhood experiences may become unconscious programs that follow us into adulthood Why falling in love can temporarily interrupt subconscious programming Bruce's explanation of epigenetics and why he rejects genetic determinism Why taking responsibility for your unconscious patterns can help you reclaim your power How stress, belief, and perception interact within Bruce's model of health and disease Why Bruce challenges the cultural interpretation of "survival of the fittest" How cooperation, community, and harmony fit into his theory of human evolution Why Bruce believes changing collective consciousness begins with individuals living differently Chapters 00:00:03 – Welcome to SuperLife 00:00:34 – Sponsor: Miko Dog 00:02:00 – Introducing Dr. Bruce Lipton 00:03:33 – Bruce's personal experience with tongue cancer 00:04:21 – Why his diagnosis brought decades of research to the forefront 00:05:23 – Bruce's belief that cancer is a symptom, not the underlying problem 00:06:23 – Why Bruce believes this message matters right now 00:07:25 – The biological imperative and humanity's drive to survive 00:08:22 – You are not a victim of your genetics 00:10:15 – Are 95% of our lives controlled by subconscious programming?

Much of what shapes your life may be operating beneath conscious awareness, but Bruce's central message is that those patterns don't have to remain permanent. By becoming aware of the programs you're running, taking responsibility for what you're creating, and consciously choosing the beliefs, relationships, communities, and vision you want to reinforce, you can begin creating a life based less on fear and struggle and more on love, cooperation, and possibility."

 Here's the description again without em-dashes: **Episode 373: How to Build a Business That Outlives You (Legacy Phase Explained)** Coach Joe Lukacs breaks down the phases every entrepreneur and advisor moves through: survival, sustainability, profit, value, and finally, legacy. Fresh off a summer sabbatical spent reflecting (and running an unexpectedly humbling personal branding exercise with AI), Joe shares why chasing bigger revenue numbers alone stops being motivating, and why building something that outlives you might be the real long-term game. Topics covered: - The five phases of a business/career journey: survival, sustainability, profit, value, and legacy - Why boredom, not failure, is often what derails advisors and business owners - A personal story about using AI to get honest, uncomfortable feedback on his brand - Rethinking "currency" beyond just money: time, freedom, and relationships - Why Joe is restructuring his schedule around four-week sabbaticals starting in 2027 - What it really means to build a business (or firm) meant to last 100 years Connect with Joe at magellannetwork.net or coachjoe.guru.

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova.    This week I'm joined by Karina Mangu-Ward, organizational design expert and author of Teams That Meet The Moment. Karina has worked with organizations ranging from PepsiCo and Chanel to Planned Parenthood and the Sundance Institute. Her work challenges a fundamental assumption about performance: that the individual is the unit we should be trying to optimize. I'm excited to share this conversation with her.   THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…entrepreneurs, founders, and business leaders looking to build stronger and more effective teams.   TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…organizations often try to solve performance problems by focusing on individuals: hiring a superstar, coaching an underperformer, or replacing someone on the team. But Karina argues that the real issue is often the system surrounding those individuals. She explains why teams, rather than individuals, are the true unit of value creation and how shared language, clear decision rights, and better teaming practices can help organizations move faster and learn more effectively. In this conversation, we also explore what happens when AI agents become part of the team and why automating a broken process can simply make the problem bigger.   KEY TAKEAWAYS: Teams, not individuals, are the true unit of performance. Consensus isn't always the goal; decisions need clarity and momentum. Clear decision rights can make teams faster and more effective. AI amplifies the need for strong processes, roles, and collaboration.   WHAT I LOVE MOST…this conversation challenges the instinct to always look at the individual when something isn't working. Sometimes the most important thing to fix isn't the person, it's the way the team is designed to work together. And as AI changes how work gets done, that lesson is only becoming more important.   Running Time: 26:55   Subscribe on iTunes   Find Tiffani Online: LinkedIn Facebook X    Find Karina Online: LinkedIn Newsletter   Karina's Book:  Teams That Meet the Moment: 9 Practices for Unlocking Performance and Growth in Uncertain Times

Jacob Kosior has over ten years of experience in the multifamily housing industry, spanning operations, marketing, and centralization efforts across conventional, student housing, affordable housing, and build-to-rent communities. He previously served as Vice President of Centralized Services at Cardinal Group Management and has held leadership positions with BH Management, The Dinerstein Companies, and CA Ventures. In 2022, while founding a centralized services team at Cardinal Group, Jacob began testing AI tools across the housing space and co-developed a delinquency AI product for rent collection with the EliseAI team. Today he is at EliseAI, where he works with operators of all sizes to implement AI tools, manage the change required for the technology to stick, and rethink how work gets structured across a portfolio. In this episode, Jacob Kosior breaks down how multifamily operators are actually deploying AI, where to start, and what agentic AI changes about the way workflows get built. Drawing on a decade in operations before moving to the technology side, Jacob explains why leasing is the natural entry point, why speed is becoming the metric that matters more than conversion rate alone, and why owners who call their own properties tend to misjudge voice AI. He and John also work through the harder question operators face once automation is in place: what the human team should be doing instead.     Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here.     Key Takeaways Start with leasing, where the tasks are repetitive and already documented Build AI workflows on the same follow-up cadence you train your onsite teams on Track speed alongside conversion rates, because faster cycles compound Decide where human touchpoints serve the customer, not just the org chart Redeploy the hours AI frees up into experience or revenue generating work Ask questions early, since lacking internal AI talent is the most common barrier     Topics From Operations to the Technology Side Jacob spent over a decade in multifamily operations before moving into AI Founding a centralized services team at Cardinal Group in 2022 pushed him to demo every tool available He co-developed a delinquency AI tool and a centralized call center product with EliseAI before joining the company What Agentic AI Actually Changes Generative AI answers prompts; agentic AI follows a workflow toward a defined goal Goals map to work teams already do: book the tour, collect the rent, sign the renewal Operators now control the steps the AI follows, mirroring how they train staff onsite Why Leasing Is the Place to Start Leasing represents the repetitive, high-volume work teams handle every day The old five point follow-up has become 8 to 9 touches per prospect to convert AI works the weekend leads so agents start Monday on tours instead of backlog Who EliseAI Serves The platform crossed 6 million units earlier this year, roughly 1 in 6 US apartments Clients range from top 50 operators to regional operators with a few hundred units Over a billion AI conversations give the platform context on industry edge cases Speed as the Metric Owners Miss The industry tracks conversion rates closely and speed almost not at all A 20% lead-to-tour rate achieved in two hours beats the same rate in two days An assistant manager calls one delinquent resident at a time; AI calls the building Faster cycles give owners earlier visibility into collections, renewals, and leasing velocity Rethinking the ROI Question Operators who never calculated the ROI of a leasing agent struggle to value the AI doing that work The 2025 conversation was about ROI; the 2026 conversation is about creating value Freed capacity opens the door to restructuring teams, not just cutting tasks Deciding Where Humans Step In Human Touch Automations let operators choose where staff enter the customer journey One example is a personal call two hours before a scheduled tour The test is whether the customer wants that touchpoint, not whether the team is used to it Automating administrative work finally gives teams room to deliver the service they advertise The Voice AI Misconception Owners calling their own properties judge voice AI against old press-one phone trees Consumers using AI daily are increasingly comfortable talking to it on the phone Voice AI routes callers to the right person instead of forcing them through a menu Regional dialects lifted both engagement and tour bookings in beta testing What Voice AI Replaces After-hours answering services and overflow call centers become optional Call scoring rates every leasing agent call against a rubric, replacing quarterly mystery shops Self-learning feeds those conversations back into the AI to improve automation rates    

Rethinking the bra industry by finally listening to women — that's the magic. ✨ On The Kara Goldin Show, I sit down with Heidi Zak, Co-Founder and CEO of ThirdLove — the intimate apparel brand that transformed how millions of women shop for bras through better fit, inclusive sizing, and technology. We talk about how ThirdLove challenged an industry that had gone decades without meaningful innovation, introducing half-cup sizing and creating the online Fitting Room that has helped more than 20 million women find their correct size. Heidi shares why solving a real customer problem—not chasing trends—became the foundation for building one of the most recognized brands in the category. We also dive into product innovation, expanding beyond bras into new essentials, opening physical retail after years as a digitally native brand, and how customer feedback continues to shape every decision the company makes. Heidi also shares what she's learned scaling ThirdLove, leading through growth, and building a company focused on helping women feel more comfortable and confident every day. If you're interested in building a brand by solving real customer problems, creating products people genuinely love, or scaling a modern consumer company in a rapidly changing retail landscape, you'll want to hear this conversation.

Metro Atlanta is growing quickly, adding more jobs and new development, but delivering housing in step with that growth is increasingly complex. Builders and developers must balance limited land availability, infrastructure constraints, rising costs and evolving buyer expectations while creating communities that work for both residents and local governments.  Myles Cardenas, senior land planning and development manager with Taylor Morrison, joins Host Carol Morgan on Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio to break down the forces shaping residential development across Metro Atlanta and what's ahead for the region's next phase of growth.  Growth Is Outpacing Infrastructure in Many Areas  As Metro Atlanta's population grows, local governments are working to align housing demand with existing infrastructure capacity. Roads, water and sewer networks, utility expansion timelines and stormwater systems all play a role in whether new development can move forward. In some cases, municipalities are slowing approvals or tightening development standards while they assess how much additional growth these systems can support.  “I don't think it's a shortage. I think it's more so of a slowdown,” Cardenas said.  That distinction is important. Land may be available, but development cannot proceed without the infrastructure and approvals needed to support it.  Housing is not the only demand on these systems. Large-scale commercial projects, including data centers and industrial development, also require significant infrastructure capacity, making long-term planning even more critical.  Infill and Redevelopment Are Key Housing Drivers  As large parcels become harder to find in established areas, older office buildings, outdated retail centers and underperforming commercial sites are increasingly being evaluated for residential or mixed-use redevelopment. These locations often have existing infrastructure and established communities nearby, creating opportunities to add housing in areas that already have jobs, services and amenities.  While these projects can help bring housing closer to established activity centers, they also require more creative planning. Developers must work within existing structures, infrastructure and site constraints rather than starting with a blank slate.  Stormwater Requirements Are Reshaping Site Design  One of the most influential and often underestimated factors in land development is stormwater management. Regulations and infrastructure requirements can significantly affect site layout, density and overall project costs.  Every added cost in land development ultimately affects home affordability. That reality is pushing developers to look for efficiencies earlier in the process by optimizing land use, refining site design and reducing unnecessary expenses wherever possible.  Finding those efficiencies can help developers make better use of available land while keeping the cost of new housing in focus.  No Single Housing Model Fits Every Market  Housing demand across Metro Atlanta is not uniform, and development strategies reflect that reality. Depending on location and market conditions, communities may include smaller lots, higher-density townhomes, larger homesites or mixed-use components.  Local regulations, infrastructure availability, land costs and buyer preferences all influence what gets built and where.  “I think everybody's really taking a look at what they do and understanding what they do best and trying to strategize land position from there,” Cardenas said.  That strategic approach is becoming increasingly important as builders determine where their products and expertise align with local demand.  Atlanta's Residential Growth is Moving in Multiple Directions  Metro Atlanta's next wave of residential growth is not concentrated in a single corridor. It is emerging in multiple directions as employment centers, infrastructure investment and land availability.  Southern communities such as South Fulton, Union City, Peachtree City and Newnan continue to attract attention as new jobs and master-planned communities take shape. At the same time, northern areas are seeing increased interest driven by data centers and other employment hubs.  Across both regions, the pattern remains consistent: Housing follows opportunity. Where jobs, infrastructure and amenities expand, residential development tends to follow, although the pace of that growth still depends heavily on infrastructure readiness.  Infrastructure Will Shape Atlanta's Future Growth  While land availability is important, infrastructure ultimately determines whether development can move forward at scale. Water, sewer, transportation networks and utilities all influence what is possible in a given area.  This makes coordination between developers and municipalities essential. Cities must plan infrastructure investment alongside expected growth, while developers must evaluate existing capacity before committing to projects.  The result is a more varied growth pattern across the region. Some areas may have available land but limited infrastructure, while others have infrastructure in place but fewer large development sites. Together, those conditions are creating opportunities for both greenfield and infill development.  Workforce Capacity Is a Core Industry Challenge  Beyond land and infrastructure, the construction industry faces another major constraint: workforce availability. Skilled professionals are needed across every stage of development, from planning and design to construction and long-term community management.  Cardenas recently earned his Georgia general contractor license through the Licensed Contractor Cohort, a program focused on expanding access to construction careers and licensing pathways.  “There just aren't enough young people that are getting into the industry fast enough to essentially take over the demand that's coming through the housing and construction industry,” Cardenas said.  The industry also extends far beyond field construction. Roles in architecture, engineering, design, marketing, insurance and technology all contribute to delivering housing at scale. Expanding awareness of these career paths will be critical to meeting future demand.  As Metro Atlanta continues to grow, the ability to develop land efficiently will be just one piece of the puzzle. Infrastructure, housing affordability and a strong construction workforce will all play a role in determining how the region grows.  To learn more about Atlanta residential growth and the trends shaping future communities, listen to the full episode of Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio.

This is the first episode of our Work Series - a three-part look at how painting companies are rethinking their organizational models. When the numbers stopped working, Austin Ilsley and his wife Lacie faced a decision that would change everything about how they run their field team at Ai Painting Plus. Austin walks us through the financial turning point that pushed them away from a full W2 model and what the shift to subcontractors actually looked like on the ground. From rebuilding their team to redefining where control lives in the business, he shares the real lessons behind a transition that's now producing financial health.

Project Out Loud – Cells do not absorb water by magic. They absorb it through tiny channels, and the quality of that water matters. If water is poorly structured, the body will not recognize it as fully useful. If it is better organized, it can move more easily into the system and support hydration at the cellular level. This is where the debate gets interesting...

Relying only on low-impact exercise can leave you more fragile as you age, because your bones and connective tissue need impact to stay strong. Graham Tuttle, a coach, the author of Born to Sprint, and the self-styled Barefoot Sprinter, argues that sprinting, jumping, and throwing are the real markers of a healthy body at any age, and that stripping impact out of your training in the name of safety quietly erodes the very capacity it is meant to protect. In this conversation, Graham and Coach Allan get into why impact signals your bones and your brain that they are still needed, how training barefoot restores feedback and movement most of us have lost, the story of Graham coaching his own father to run again 15 years into a Parkinson's diagnosis, and his 10% rule for reintroducing impact safely when you are starting from badly out of shape.

Sangeet Paul Choudary is the Founder of Platform Thinking Labs. In this episode, Sangeet joins the podcast to explore how AI is reshaping knowledge work, organizational structures, and the way businesses create value. He explains why the biggest impact of AI may not be automation, but coordination, why most conventional explanations of Jevon's paradox are off,  and why leaders need to think beyond individual tasks to understand how entire systems and workflows are being redesigned. Finally, also discusses the changing relationship between humans and AI, the risks of knowledge work becoming commoditized, and why organizations need to focus on where value is moving rather than simply what AI can automate. LinksSangeet's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sangeetpaul/Sangeet's Substack: https://platforms.substack.com/

Welcome to another insightful episode of Build a Better Agency! This week, host Drew McLellan welcomes Shawn Yeager, founder of Upshift, for a candid conversation about the seismic shifts AI is creating in the agency world. Together, they go beyond the hype and headlines, examining how agencies can genuinely commercialize AI—not just adopt new tools, but strategically redesign what they sell and how they deliver unique value in an AI-enabled marketplace. In this episode, Shawn Yeager draws on more than 30 years at the intersection of technology and business, sharing a roadmap for agency leaders. He explains the three traps many agencies fall into when adopting new technology—becoming more efficient but less profitable, becoming educated without application, and buying into platforms without changing go-to-market strategy. Drew McLellan and Shawn Yeager also break down the difference between operational AI (streamlining internal processes) and commercial AI (transforming what you offer clients), and why the latter is critical for agency growth and survival. Listeners will discover practical frameworks to evaluate service offerings, price on outcomes (even when clients aren't sure how to measure them), and proactively use AI to become indispensable advisors—not just vendors. Shawn Yeager discusses the blend of efficiency and artistry required in the modern agency, how to avoid the risks of commoditization, and why focusing on judgment, relationships, and the "decision sandwich" will separate thriving agencies from those left behind. If you're looking for actionable steps to future-proof your agency, navigate staffing shifts, or reimagine your client relationships in light of AI's rapid evolution, you won't want to miss this episode. By the end, you'll have new strategies and a fresh mindset for turning the AI revolution into your agency's greatest opportunity. A big thank you to our podcast's presenting sponsor, White Label IQ.

The number on your scale tells you almost nothing about your actual health. You can lose weight while becoming less healthy—or stay the same weight while dramatically improving your metabolism, reducing your risk of disease, and adding years to your life. In today's episode, I discuss: Why the scale can completely miss what's happening inside your body and the hidden health risks it can't measure The dangerous difference between muscle and visceral belly fat, and why one protects you while the other drives disease The five health markers I pay attention to instead of body weight—including one simple measurement you can do at home How insulin resistance develops years before diabetes and the early warning signs you can catch before it's too late The goal isn't simply to lose weight; it's to build a healthier metabolism. The healthiest body isn't always the lightest one—it's the one that's functioning the way it was designed to. Resources Mentioned: Want to dive deeper into why muscle is the key to longevity?
