This episode originally aired on March 10, 2025 — but is just as relevant today! Hope you enjoy :)--Hi everyone! Welcome back to another episode of The Chai on Life Podcast. I'm Alex Segal and today, I am speaking with Rivka Lerner. Originally from Switzerland, she works as a software developer and coach as well as a kallah teacher, but her love is in teaching and discussing profound ideas with Jews from all walks of life. After teaching with her husband Rabbi Simi Lerner in London for a few years, Rivka came back to Israel long term, and is now an educator in Tel Aviv for the anglo community, as well as in Midreshet Rachel V'Chaya. Above all else, a mother to her awesome four boys.I love this episode so much. We are really going deep into Purim. While Jews have never really had it “easy” this is a particularly tough time for the Jewish people everywhere and it feels a bit strange to be focused on joy when there is so much devastation around us. We talk about that. We speak about what happiness really means, how you can redefine it for yourself and how you can truly feel it this Purim.We also speak really practically about what Purim can look like for you. Is it super overwhelming? Do you not really like it as much as you feel like you “should”? Do you feel like you're missing out on that joy? We speak about ways you can access it and how you can transform your preparation and day even in just a few conversations that can be really life-changing.We talk about the megillah, parts of the megillah you may not have noticed before and intentions about the megillah that can change your experience while listening to it.At the end we speak about the comparison between Purim and Yom Kippur, or Yom HaKipppurim and what it really means that Yom Kippur is a day “like” Purim. There is so much depth in this episode, it is so rich with meaning and wisdom and profound takeaways and I am so excited for you to hear it and G-d willing for it to enrich your holiday this year in new ways.If there is someone you want to see on The Chai on Life Podcast, email me at alex@chaionlifemag.com or send me a DM @chaionlifemag. Thanks again, see you next week!
Generational Shifts: A 2025 National Research Group study found that nearly 50% of men aged 13–30 desire to see men become more emotionally vulnerable, indicating a shift in perspective among younger generations. Mixed Opinions: Data from the Movember Foundation reveals that 31% of men surveyed view the ability to cry or be emotionally open as a strength, while 34% see it as a weakness. Adam Tomlin is the host of the ACT OUT podcast. Before embarking on his journey as a podcaster, he worked as an attorney, where he dedicated as much effort to avoiding his own emotions as he did to advancing someone else's dreams. After a couple of years of rewiring his mindset, he became frustrated with the narrative perpetuated by the "podcaster bro" culture, which suggested that compassion was a weakness incompatible with masculinity and the pursuit of a better world. This inspired Adam to create the ACT OUT podcast to change that perspective. He advocates for everyone to have the ability to pursue their happiness, allowing ALL individuals to make a life, earn a living, and make a difference. Adam's story reflects the American experience. At one point, I introduced myself with the line, "I began every attorney bio that way." In hindsight, that may have sounded more pretentious than charming, but ironically, it was more accurate than I realized. At the time, I felt stuck, empty, and like a bad person. Unfortunately, that feeling is a common narrative for many people, and I want to help change it. I was born and raised in a small rural town in northwest Georgia, where the accents were so strong that I didn't realize I had one until I went to college in Atlanta. Growing up, I was taught that the only acceptable feelings were “positive” ones, and even those came with terms and conditions. As a result, I tried to suppress all my emotions, but I was wildly unsuccessful. Nonetheless, I didn't seek help for my mental health until much later in life.

The Net Promoter System Podcast – Customer Experience Insights from Loyalty Leaders
Episode 260: When customers must re-explain the same problem, reopen old tickets, and chase for follow-ups, a shiny new tool won't help unless it's connected to support or sales history. How can leaders act on real signals to build shared memory and fix the root cause? Jeannie Walters, founder and CEO of Experience Investigators, and John Abraham, a customer experience consultant, believe that most customer frustration isn't about a single moment. It's about when someone becomes worn down by repeated fixes, handoffs, and follow-ups. When organizations chase shiny tools without a clear execution plan, it's harder to agree on what "great" customer experience actually means. Learn how AI-assisted listening (for things like tone, behavior, and patterns) surfaces exhaustion signals that surveys miss, why sentiment analysis becomes a dead end without action, and how to replace tool-chasing with cross-functional fixes that stick. We'll also cover the danger of becoming a "company with no memory," and the simple prompt leaders can use to ask, "What can we learn … without a survey?" The goal? When you stop celebrating case-by-case resolutions, you eliminate those frustrating repetitions that drain trust.

What I am more excited about is that it's not just about that holistic idea, but really helping individuals understand where they fit." [00:07] John: "The big debate [used to be] around driver questions and how long should the survey be. Now, the debate is much more, 'What can I learn without a survey?'" [00:08] John: "It's one thing to take a large data set and say, 'Okay, anybody can log in and play around with it.' It's very different when you see data, and you work in a frontline team or at a location." [00:15] Jeannie: "We have to say, 'This is who we are, and this is the promise we're making to you.' If we say we're gonna be all things to all people, we're saying we're nothing to no one."

Send a textENGINEERING CH∆NGE® is Back!If you checked out the reboot trailer, you know this season is more focused, more structured, and more intentional.This episode is a reminder of the foundational framework for ENGINEERING CH∆NGE®... REDEFINE.REDEFINE helps us examine the dimensions of engineering work that shape outcomes:RE-image who we see as engineers and what we see as engineering;DE-silo our approach to academic programs, research, and problem solving; FINE-tune organizational conditions so people with different backgrounds and perspectives can contribute fully to outcomes that serve all of society.Throughout this season, we'll return to these three elements as we explore leadership, ethics, convergence, community engagement, and other aspects of our organizational systems. This episode lays the foundation and context for what's to come.The System CheckThis episode also introduces The System Check, a closing reflection you'll hear each week.It's a structured pause to help you look more clearly at the system you're operating in. This episode asks:How is engineering defined in your context, by language, imagery, and context?What conditions shape who is able to contribute meaningfully, and when?How often do you step back to examine whether the system you're part of is designed to support the outcomes it claims to value?Because change begins with how clearly we see.If You're Glad ENGINEERING CH∆NGE® Is BackFollow the show so you don't miss the rest of the season.Leave a 5-star rating and short written review; it helps other agents of change find the podcast.Share this episode with a colleague who cares about strengthening engineering from the inside out.Thanks for being part of this next chapter of ENGINEERING CH∆NGE®!Visit the ENGINEERING CH∆NGE® podcast website to learn more and to request a free copy of my new brief, Engineering for Society.Support the showENGINEERING CHΔNGE® is a registered trademark held by Dr. Yvette E.

From Discovery to Delivery: Charting Progress in Gynecologic Oncology, hosted by Ursula A. Matulonis, MD, brings expert insights into the most recent breakthroughs, evolving standards, and emerging therapies across gynecologic cancers. Dr Matulonis is chief of the Division of Gynecologic Oncology and the Brock-Wilcon Family Chair at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, as well as a professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School, both in Boston, Massachusetts.In this episode, Dr Matulonis sat down with guest Susana M. Campos, MD, MPH. Dr Campos is the clinical director and director of Educational Initiatives for the of the Division of Gynecologic Oncology at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, and an institute physician and assistant professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School in Boston, Massachusetts. Drs Matulonis and Campos discussed the evolving landscape of newly diagnosed cervical cancer, from epidemiologic trends to emerging therapeutic strategies.According to 2026 estimates from the American Cancer Society, approximately 13,400 new cases of invasive cervical cancer will be diagnosed in the United States, with roughly 4200 deaths. Although incidence has declined over time due to human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination and screening efforts, rates have plateaued, and the disease burden remains substantial, particularly among women aged 35 to 64 years. Dr Campos noted that approximately half of cases occur in women younger than 50 years of age, and about 20% are diagnosed in women older than 65 years of age.Dr Campos reviewed common presenting symptoms, including abnormal vaginal bleeding, intermenstrual or postmenopausal bleeding, abnormal discharge, pelvic pain, and, in advanced cases, urinary symptoms or leg swelling. She explained that diagnosis begins with pelvic examination and cervical cytology or HPV testing, followed by colposcopy and biopsy when indicated. Although cervical cancer remains one of the few malignancies that is clinically staged, imaging modalities, such as MRI, CT, and PET scans, are critical to accurately defining disease extent, they underscored. Moreover, the discussion highlighted transformative advances in locally advanced disease. The phase 3 KEYNOTE-A18 trial (NCT04221945) demonstrated improved progression-free and overall survival with the addition of pembrolizumab (Keytruda) to standard chemoradiation, establishing a new standard for high-risk patients, Campos stated. Similarly, the phase 3 INTERLACE trial (NCT01566240) showed that short-course induction chemotherapy with carboplatin and paclitaxel before chemoradiation improved long-term outcomes. Campos forecasted that ongoing studies, including the phase 3 NRG-GY037 trial (NCT07061977), may integrate these approaches and further refine optimal treatment sequencing.Lastly, Drs Matulonis and Campos highlighted the expanding therapeutic arsenal in the recurrent and metastatic setting. Campos noted how antibody-drug conjugates, such as tisotumab vedotin-tftv (Tivdak) and fam-trastuzumab deruxtecan-nxki (Enhertu), have demonstrated meaningful activity, particularly in biomarker-selected populations. Campos added that investigational strategies targeting TROP2, such as sacituzumab govitecan-hziy (Trodelvy), represent additional promising avenues.Despite these advances, both experts emphasized that prevention remains paramount. Widespread uptake of HPV vaccination, including the 9-valent vaccine, as well as adherence to routine cervical screening, are essential to reducing the long-term burden of this largely preventable disease.
What defines a life well lived? On this episode of the Built Different Podcast, Dr. Zach Clinton welcomes Tim Tebow for a powerful conversation on identity, intimacy with Christ, and living a life marked by lasting impact. Known to many first for his achievements on the field: Heisman Trophy winner, national champion, NFL quarterback…Tim’s deeper impact has always extended far beyond football. From serving the “Most Vulnerable People” through the Tim Tebow Foundation to stepping into fatherhood with his wife Demi-Leigh and their daughter Daphne, Tim shares how identity, royalty, and calling have taken on even greater meaning in this season of life. At the center of this conversation is Tim’s new book, If The Tree Could Speak, a creative retelling of the crucifixion inspired by Luke 19:40. Through the perspective of the cross itself, Tim invites us to slow down and truly see the love displayed there, not as distant history, but as a present and personal rescue mission. Together, we explore what it means to live with urgency without anxiety, to lead with conviction anchored in love, and to “look again” at the people the world often overlooks. If you’ve ever felt unseen, dismissed, or forgotten, this episode is a reminder that the loudest declaration of love in history was completed for you.Links: Find Out More About Tim: https://timtebow.com/ Find Out More About the Tim Tebow Foundation: https://timtebowfoundation.org/ Purchase Tim’s Newest Book, If the Tree Could Speak, Here: timtebow.com/tree Purchase Tim’s Book, Look Again, Here: https://shorturl.at/JFL2B Follow Tim on Social Media: https://www.instagram.com/timtebow/ Find Clinically Excellent, Distinctively Christian Counseling or Coaching Today: https://christiancareconnect.com/ Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.
In this episode of the Evidence-Based Pilates Podcast, Dr. Adam McAtee passionately critiques the current state of Pilates education, emphasizing the need for a stronger understanding of anatomy, biomechanics, and the true definition of strength.

En este episodio quiero hablarte de algo muy poderoso… y también muy incómodo: el miedo a brillar. No es el miedo al fracaso, ese ya lo conocemos. Es ese otro miedo que aparece justo cuando estás a punto de crecer, cuando surge una oportunidad, cuando sientes que puedes ir más lejos… y, sin embargo, dudas, te frenas o postergas. Esto tiene nombre: el complejo de Jonás, un concepto desarrollado por Abraham Maslow, quien decía que no solo tememos lo peor de nosotros… también tememos lo mejor. Es decir, nuestra propia grandeza. Como Jonás, que huyó no por incapacidad, sino porque la magnitud de su misión lo abrumaba, muchas veces nosotros también huimos de nuestra expansión. No del fracaso, sino de convertirnos en quienes realmente podemos ser. Este miedo se manifiesta de formas muy sutiles: — Procrastinas justo antes de un salto importante — Minimizar tus logros — Decir “no estoy lista” cuando sí lo estás — Rodearte de personas que no te desafían — Prepararte eternamente sin exponerte Y aquí viene algo importante: no es pereza, es autoprotección. Tu cerebro busca seguridad, no expansión. Por eso el éxito puede sentirse como una amenaza: más visibilidad, más responsabilidad, más exposición, más cambio. Además, este miedo suele estar ligado a creencias profundas: lealtades familiares, miedo a perder relaciones, culpa por destacar, síndrome del impostor o creencias limitantes sobre el dinero y el poder. Pero hay algo clave que debes entender: no temes el éxito, temes la transformación que viene con él. Por eso, en este episodio te comparto herramientas prácticas para empezar a romper este patrón: Identifica tu historia fantasma Observa ese diálogo interno que aparece cuando estás a punto de crecer. No es una verdad, es memoria emocional. Y cuando escuches “¿quién soy yo para hacerlo?”, respóndete: ¿y quién soy yo para no hacerlo? Entrena tu identidad antes del resultado No esperes a lograrlo para creértelo. Empieza a actuar como esa versión de ti que ya lo ha conseguido. Regula tu cuerpo El miedo también es físico. Respira, muévete, escribe. Entrena a tu cuerpo a sentirse seguro en tu grandeza. Redefine el éxito Si el éxito es presión, lo evitarás. Si es expansión e impacto, lo abrazarás. Aprende a recibir Elogios, oportunidades, dinero… sin culpa. Recibir también es una forma de dar. Cuida tu entorno Rodéate de personas que celebren tu crecimiento, no de aquellas que te hacen encogerte. Y quiero dejarte una frase para esta semana: “Acepto mi grandeza con humildad y confianza.” Repítela. Créetela. Porque en el fondo, sabes que eres capaz. No naciste para esconderte. Naciste para expandirte. Tu luz no eclipsa a nadie… tu luz muestra el camino. Si este episodio resonó contigo, compártelo con alguien que necesite recordarlo. Porque el miedo a brillar no es el final… es el inicio de algo muy grande.
You did everything you were supposed to do. You worked hard. You built the career. You earned the reputation. You became successful by every conventional metric. And now… something feels off. In this solo episode, Kate explores one of the most disorienting experiences of mid-career success: realizing that you may have outgrown something that is still working. You're still good at it. People still respect you. You're still being rewarded for doing it. But the energy that once came from challenge, growth, and purpose has quietly been replaced by obligation. Kate shares her own experience stepping away from a successful performance career in classical music—and introduces the idea of competence debt: the psychological, social, and financial cost that accumulates the better you become at something…making it harder and harder to consider doing anything else. You'll learn: Why success can quietly lock you into identities that no longer fit How to recognize when you've outgrown a goal (even one you worked years to achieve) The difference between burnout and disinterest Why envying people who've made a pivot might be more meaningful than you think How to stop confusing past investment with future alignment If you're a mid-career professional wondering what's next—and whether it's okay to want something different—this episode is for you.
Two of the most significant criminal trials in the country are unfolding simultaneously — and former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis is here to break down both. The Kouri Richins murder trial begins February 23rd in Summit County, Utah, where prosecutors say she poisoned her husband Eric with a lethal dose of fentanyl mixed into a Moscow Mule. In Georgia, Colin Gray faces 29 felony counts including second-degree murder after prosecutors allege he armed his 14-year-old son with an AR-style rifle despite years of alleged warnings from the FBI, law enforcement, and child welfare officials.In this comprehensive interview, Faddis dismantles both cases from both sides — starting with the Richins defense's strongest pretrial wins and ending with why Colin Gray may be facing an unwinnable fight.The Richins case has been bleeding evidence for months. Robert Crozier, the man prosecutors called their key link in the fentanyl supply chain, has signed a sworn affidavit recanting his police statement — now saying the pills were OxyContin, not fentanyl. They were never recovered or tested. Lead Detective Jeff O'Driscoll faces witness intimidation allegations after text messages allegedly showed him threatening a witness with arrest. Judge Mrazik excluded the prosecution's domestic violence expert, limited FBI profiler Molly Amman's testimony, and twice denied bringing Kouri's 26 financial crime charges into the murder trial.But the prosecution's hand is loaded. They allege a prior Valentine's Day 2022 poisoning attempt where two friends reportedly say Eric called them saying his wife tried to kill him. Housekeeper Carmen Lauber is expected to testify that Kouri directly asked her to buy fentanyl twice — and after the first alleged attempt, requested "the Michael Jackson stuff." Google searches allegedly found on Kouri's phone include queries about lethal fentanyl doses, luxury prisons, insurance payouts, and deleting digital records. A letter found in her jail cell allegedly outlines false testimony for family members. A handwriting expert is prepared to testify that insurance document signatures were forged. And the medical examiner found more than five times the lethal dose of fentanyl in Eric's system.In the Colin Gray trial, prosecutors presented what they allege is years of warning signs: Colt's alleged 2021 search for "how to kill your dad," an FBI visit in 2023 over school shooting threats with instructions to reportedly restrict gun access, the alleged Christmas gift of the rifle seven months later, and by August 2024, Colt allegedly texting his father, "Whenever something happens, just know the blood is on your hands," and asking him to buy 150 rounds of ammunition. Prosecutors allege Colt had a shrine to the Parkland shooter in his bedroom, was reportedly hearing voices, allegedly shoved his mother when she tried to take the gun, and was taking her prescription Zoloft without medical oversight. When officers arrived at the Gray home, Colin allegedly said two words: "I knew it."The defense argues Colt hid his plans. But the prosecution says the evidence was visible inside the home Colin controlled. Faddis explains the Georgia legal framework that charges cruelty to children as the basis for second-degree murder — a higher bar than the Crumbley manslaughter convictions — and gives his honest assessment of both cases as they head toward their most critical phases.#KouriRichins #ColinGray #EricRichins #ColtGray #FentanylMurder #SchoolShooting #ParentAccountability #EricFaddis #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimePodcastJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Animals can hibernate, slowing down most metabolic functions — heart rate, blood flow, brain activity, and body temperature — then waking as if nothing happened. Humans have never done this, but what if they could? Could hibernation extend life or even save it? Dr. Sanjay Gupta explores global research into the molecular mechanics of hibernation and how these abilities might one day help fight cancer, prevent heart disease, treat depression, and even enable travel to Mars.

Stephen Grootes speaks to Simo Lushaba, Governance Specialist at the Institute of Directors South Africa, about the governance shift behind Patrice Motsepe’s decision to step down as chair. While much of the focus has been on the personality, the more significant development is the JSE’s newly implemented listing rule requiring the chairperson of a listed company to be a non-executive director, a move aimed at strengthening independence at board level. The change forms part of the JSE’s Listing Requirements Simplification Project and signals a tightening of corporate governance standards in South Africa. The Money Show is a podcast hosted by well-known journalist and radio presenter, Stephen Grootes.

"Procurement is what you make of it. It can be a bargain basement function at some firms, but it's also becoming more strategic. We have to take a more holistic, integrated view of things and try to understand the big business problems we can help solve and then offer a business solution, not just a procurement solution." – Amit Saronwala, VP, Global Indirect Supply Management, Medtronic Procurement leaders in healthcare are feeling the heat: innovation cycles are tightening, supplier bases are vast, and new pressures on cost and cash flow are here to stay. So how do you build more agile, high-performing procurement teams without adding complexity or burning out your people? In this episode, Philip Ideson speaks with Amit Saronwala, VP of Global Indirect Supply Management at Medtronic, and Jeremy Lappin, CEO of Candex. Amit draws from his clinical experience and deep commercial expertise to share how Medtronic is recasting procurement's role by focusing on smarter supplier segmentation, business-centric metrics, and technology that makes friction disappear. Jeremy adds perspective from supporting global procurement teams at scale, revealing where automation and analytics can create breathing room for strategic work. This conversation takes a candid look at how one of healthcare's biggest names is making indirect procurement a critical lever for business value and what it takes to bring suppliers and stakeholders on the journey. In this episode, Amit and Jeremy discuss how procurement can: Set a clear line for strategic vs. transactional suppliers… and stick to it Speak "business" (not just "procurement") to increase influence with stakeholders Automate low-risk, high-volume purchases to free up valuable talent Choose tools that require little or no change management for smoother adoption Redefine procurement's core skillset for the next five years Links: Amit Saronwala on LinkedIn Jeremy Lappin on LinkedIn Subscribe to This Week in Procurement Subscribe to Art of Procurement on YouTube

O Start Eldorado desta semana mostra que a IA amplia oportunidades, mas também exige mais responsabilidade, governança e consciência digital: um estudo do Fórum Econômico Mundial revela que 94% de executivos e especialistas apontam a Inteligência Artificial como o principal fator de impacto na segurança cibernética nos próximos 12 meses. Fraudes digitais, phishing automatizado, ransomware e ataques à cadeia de suprimentos estão entre as ameaças que mais cresceram no último ano. E o dado mais preocupante: quase três em cada quatro pessoas afirmam que elas próprias ou alguém próximo já foram vítimas de fraude online. O apresentador Daniel Gonzales conversa com dois especialistas para discutir os riscos, os impactos e o que pode ser feito para proteger empresas e cidadãos na era da Inteligência Artificial, que infelizmente também vem sendo utilizada para potencializar e amplificar golpes. No Start, estão Américo Alonso, diretor de Cibersegurança da Atos América do Sul, e Rafael Garcia, especialista em prevenção a fraudes da FICO. O programa vai ao ar todas as quartas-feiras, a partir das 21h, na Rádio Eldorado FM (107,3 para toda a Grande SP), além do app, site e assistentes de voz, e depois pode ser ouvido pelas plataformas digitais como podcast.

Why does sex often become uncomfortable, pressured, or disconnected in midlife — even in loving relationships?Book a Discovery Call for Relationship Renovation CoachingIn this episode, EJ and Tarah are joined by Dr. Maria Sophocles, board-certified gynecologist and national menopause expert, to explore what she calls The Bedroom Gap — the growing difference in expectations, desire, and physical experience that many couples face as they age.They discuss why so many women feel broken or ashamed when intimacy changes, why couples rarely talk openly about it, and how hormonal shifts, cultural messaging, and outdated definitions of sex create disconnection.Dr. Sophocles shares three essential steps to closing the gap:• Know thyself — understanding your body, hormones, and pleasure• Communicate — removing shame and learning to talk honestly about sex• Redefine sex — shifting from performance and obligation to connection and pleasureYou will also hear about:• How perimenopause and menopause impact desire and comfort• Why pain during sex often leads to avoidance and fear• How shame silently fuels disconnection• Why redefining sex beyond penetration changes everything• The difference between obligation-based sex and connection-based intimacy• How couples can rebuild trust after long periods of distanceThis episode is especially helpful if:• Intimacy feels tense, painful, or avoided• One partner feels rejected while the other feels pressured• Hormonal changes have shifted desire• You miss feeling close but do not know how to start again• Shame makes it hard to talk about sexThis is an honest, hopeful conversation about sexual health, emotional safety, and rediscovering pleasure in long-term relationships.Dr. Sophocles links below: The Bedroom Gap: Rewrite the Rules and Roles of Sex in Midlifehttps://mariasophoclesmd.com/Learn More About Relationship RenovationOrder Relationship Renovation at Home Manual from AmazonJoin Our Patreon CommunitySupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/he-said-she-said/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
At ITEXPO / MSP EXPO, Paul Daigle, Senior Managing Partner and Founder of BizAdvisoryBoard, introduced a new free resource designed to help MSPs grow more strategically: the MSP Business Growth Marketplace. In his conversation with Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, Daigle positioned the platform as a response to a common challenge in the channel—MSPs working in their business rather than on it. Unlike vendor-led marketplaces that focus on extending product reach, this marketplace takes what Daigle calls a holistic approach across eight operational focus areas: sales, marketing, legal, CPA, HR, coaching, services, and support. “We're the only marketplace in the world that specializes in the holistic approach within the eight operational focus areas of an MSP,” Daigle said. “It's like an eight-cylinder engine—you need all those pistons working together.” The platform is vendor-agnostic and designed to match MSPs with vetted resources aligned to their size and growth stage. Whether an MSP needs specialized legal counsel, HR guidance, financial expertise, or operational coaching, the marketplace aims to connect them with providers who understand the MSP model. The goal is to streamline access to trusted partners at the precise moment MSP executives are actively seeking solutions. The concept emerged from BizAdvisoryBoard's executive coaching and M&A advisory work, where Daigle's team consistently fielded requests for qualified referrals. With strong interest from vendors and service providers at MSP Expo, the MSP Business Growth Marketplace is positioned as a centralized growth engine for MSP leaders focused on scaling with structure, discipline, and long-term value creation.

Lost only 2 pounds this month while someone else dropped 15? Here's why that's actually a good thing. In this episode, I'm breaking down why sustainable fat loss isn't a race and why comparing your journey to someone else's will only hold you back. I share my own current fat loss phase, walk you through the 3-phase framework I use with my 1:1 coaching clients in Elevated Evolution (Rebuild, Reignite, Redefine), and explain why everyone's timeline looks different based on their starting point, lifestyle, and unique circumstances. If you've ever felt "behind" or frustrated by slow progress, this episode is your reminder that consistency beats speed every time. Let's ditch the all-or-nothing approach and focus on what actually works for YOUR body and YOUR life.
We spend so much of our lives chasing money—believing that once we earn enough, save enough, and invest enough, happiness and freedom will finally follow.But what if the real goal isn't more money… it's more time?Today's guest is Andy Hill, AFC®, award-winning family finance coach and founder of the platform Marriage, Kids and Money, which has reached millions of families through his podcast, videos, and writing. His new book, Own Your Time, challenges a deeply held belief in personal finance: that wealth alone will solve our problems. Instead, Andy argues that true financial success is about using money intentionally to design a life filled with freedom, family connection, and choice. In this conversation, we explore Andy's own journey—from a six-figure household income and negative net worth to a life where he and his wife now work part-time by design. We talk about the concept of “coast financial independence,” the surprising middle ground between burnout and early retirement, and the practical financial steps families can take—at any stage—to reclaim their calendars and their priorities.We'll also get into the emotional side of money and time: how couples navigate unequal incomes, why optionality matters more than status, and how to raise kids who understand wealth not just as dollars, but as freedom and generosity.

In this episode of Tales from The Lane, I'm joined by Dear Nina: Conversations about Friendship host Nina Badzin, whose podcast is ranked in the top 1% globally—and whose work sits right at the intersection of honesty, emotional maturity, and real-life friendship dynamics. Together, we explore what happens to friendships during major life transitions: career growth, changing family structures, shifting priorities, and the inevitable reality that we can't take everyone with us into every season. We talk about: Why friendships often feel strained during periods of growth How a single, honest conversation can sometimes change everything Redefining reciprocity so it doesn't become a silent scorecard Why proximity matters more than we like to admit—and what happens when it disappears The courage it takes to be the inviter instead of waiting to be included This is a grounded, compassionate conversation for anyone navigating success, change, and the quieter emotional work that comes with it. About Nina Badzin Nina is the host of Dear Nina: Conversations about Friendship, a top 1% podcast focused on the realities of adult friendship. Her work helps people think more clearly, communicate more directly, and let go of unnecessary resentment in their relationships.

Today's episode looks at the economy through a lens that's too often ignored—and wildly underestimated. My guest is Misty Heggeness, economist at the University of Kansas and author of Swiftynomics: How Women Mastermind and Redefine the Economy. In this eye-opening book, Misty challenges traditional economic assumptions by showing how women—through spending, caregiving, community-building, and collective action—are reshaping markets and redefining what economic power actually looks like. This is a conversation about data, culture, and why the future of economics may already be here—we just haven't been measuring it correctly.
What makes an opening scene truly unforgettable?In this episode of Fantasy for the Ages, Jim and Zach count down their Top 10 Opening Scenes in Fantasy & Sci-Fi — across books, movies, and television. These are the moments that hooked us instantly, set the tone for everything that followed, and made us say, “Oh… I'm in.”We're talking about opening scenes that:• Instantly establish tone, stakes, and voice• Redefine a genre or subgenre• Still hit just as hard on a rewatch or reread• Made us trust the storyteller within minutes (or even seconds)From iconic first lines on the page, to jaw-dropping cinematic prologues, to TV pilots that changed the game, these openings didn't just start a story — they announced something special.⚠️ This episode is spoiler-light, focusing on why these openings work rather than ruining what comes next.

In this episode, I sit down with Ruchi Pinniger , Founder and CEO of Watch Her Prosper®, to talk about the real path to financial empowerment for women in business. Ruchi shares her journey from Wall Street to becoming a financial translator + healer, helping women rewrite the stories that say they're "not good with numbers." Ruchi brings nearly 20 years of experience in the Wall Street and corporate world to the Watch Her Prosper® team and was recently named one of the "Women Leading the Finance Industry."

Ruchi and I explore: - How the tired story that women "aren't good with money" is still circulating - Why this spell must be lifted, women (like all humans) are absolutely capable with money - Why mindset, beliefs, and conditioning need to shift before money strategies can truly stick - Redefining prosperity as feeling abundant, not just earning more - The three pillars of prosperity: well-being, spirituality, and healthy relationships - Know your numbers: get support, AND still look, learn, and lead your finances Subscribe so you never miss an episode and leave a review—it helps so much.

In this episode of Tales from The Lane, Kate explores a question she's been asked repeatedly—especially in uncertain, chaotic times: Is it selfish to focus on your own growth when the world feels like it's on fire? Drawing on psychology, leadership, and her lived experience as both a conductor and a coach, Kate reframes self-actualization not as ego or individualism, but as responsibility. When individuals commit to becoming their best selves, they create stronger, more generous, and more resilient communities. In this episode, you'll hear: Why self-actualization was never meant to be about narcissism or personal gain How pursuing your own growth can directly strengthen your workplace, neighborhood, or industry Three practical ways individual excellence fuels collective thriving A powerful orchestra metaphor that reframes leadership, contribution, and responsibility If you've ever felt torn between personal ambition and caring deeply about the world around you, this episode offers a grounding, hopeful perspective—and a clear path forward. Mentioned in this episode: The concept of self-actualization (Abraham Maslow) Kate's Quarterly Retreat Planning Guide If this conversation resonated, share it with someone who's navigating their own next chapter.
