On this episode of the Scouting For Growth podcast, Sabine VdL talks to Marinela Profi, Global Market Strategy Lead for AI, GenAI and Agentic AI at SAS, about the rise of agentic AI and how we will move from hype to real, reliable AI. In today's episode, we'll discuss: Why LLMs alone don't solve business problems – and what does, how governance is becoming the new frontier of AI trust, and what leaders should expect by 2026, as enterprises shift from experiments to autonomous, explainable intelligence. KEY TAKEAWAYS A generative AI chatbot is really good and answering questions, generating text, or summarising content. But, it typically stops when it comes to conversation. On the other hand, an AI agent goes beyond that, it can take action, it has goals, memory, reasoning capabilities and can orchestrate multi-set workflows using a combination of not just large-language models but also rules, data and analytics. Generative AI talks, and agentic AI does. The 5-step lifecycle of an agent is a framework I put together to help me and my customers understand what an agent actually does step-by-step in practice. 1. Perception 2. Cognition 3. Decisioning 4. Action, and 5. Learning. Governance boards in 2026 will act more like digital oversight committees, they will ensure that agents aren't just smart, but they are safe, explainable and accountable.  BEST MOMENTS  ‘Post action the agent learns from feedback from a human operative. It's important to monitor the learning loops, you cannot allow the agent to “self-update” in ways that are uncontrolled.'  ‘How autonomous should an agent be? 90% of the time it depends on the risk and impact of the task.' ‘Autonomy without accountability is a risk multiplier.' ‘Governance doesn't stop at deployment, performance must be continuously monitored.' ABOUT THE GUEST Marinela Profi helps organizations move from AI hype to trusted impact. As Global Market Strategy Lead for AI, GenAI and Agentic AI at SAS, she works with enterprises in financial services, healthcare, and government to build AI systems that don't just act fast—but act responsibly. With an MBA and a Master's in Statistics and AI, Marinela bridges two worlds: translating complex data science into clear business strategy. Her work focuses on how agentic AI—intelligent systems that perceive, reason, and act autonomously—can deliver governed, explainable decisions instead of black-box predictions. A frequent keynote speaker at international AI and analytics events, she shares insights on the evolution from generative to agentic AI and the new frontier of AI governance, trust, and human-AI collaboration. Marinela is also an Advisory Board Member for Wake Technical Community College's Data Science Program, helping shape future-ready curricula that connect classroom learning with real-world AI innovation.

How can organizations make more equitable changes to their internal norms and structures, to promote fairness over merely seeking profit? What are alternate ways to tackle the difference in agreeableness that underpins many professional gaps between men and women?Cordelia Fine is a professor in the history and philosophy of science department at University of Melbourne, as well as the author of several books, including Patriarchy Inc.: What We Get Wrong About Gender Equality and Why Men Still Win at Work, Delusions of Gender: How Our Minds, Society, and Neurosexism Create Difference, and Testosterone Rex: Myths of Sex, Science, and Society.Greg and Cordelia discuss the complexities surrounding gender equality, including the contested reasons for wage differences and occupational gaps between men and women. Cordelia critiques the traditional and evolving gender norms, explains her stance on DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) strategies, and advocates for more nuanced, context-aware approaches to addressing gender disparities. She challenges oversimplified evolutionary psychology narratives and underscores the importance of understanding the cultural evolution of gender roles. *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:Why valuing women isn't enough52:52: You can say pretty words about valuing the feminine. Oh, you know, women are great. They're so wonderful. They're so empathic and collaborative and participative, and they're really good at building people. But you can't just say that—you have to actually change your organizations so that you literally put your money where your mouth is, so that is what is actually being rewarded.Redefining patriarchy10:37: There's a sort of assumption that when we talk about patriarchy, we're just talking about the harm to girls and women. Its long been recognized, I think, in feminism that often men and certain groups of men do also face harms in that kind of system that's keeping some men on top.Why our ideas about sex differences often get it wrong20:58: I do think we have to be careful about looking at our—first of all, making assumptions about what sex differences actually are—because they're often, you know, a huge amount of overlap, contingent depending on the context and the cues. But also, to then project that back into our ancestral past without taking a kind of wider look at societies beyond the weird populations—Western, educated, industrialized, rich, democratic.Show Links:Recommended Resources:Cecilia L.

In this episode of Equine Assisted World, Rupert Isaacson speaks with Suzie Latchford, founder of Heal With Horses in Ontario, Canada — a long‑running equine‑assisted program working with autistic children, families, and communities in a demanding four‑season climate.Suzie shares how Heal With Horses grew organically over more than fifteen years, often without a clear roadmap, and what that growth revealed about sustainability, invisible structure, horse welfare, staff leadership, and practitioner wellbeing. What begins as a conversation about weather and logistics becomes a deeply honest exploration of burnout, menopause, identity, delegation, and the hidden costs of purpose‑driven work.Rather than presenting easy answers, this episode offers lived experience from someone who has stayed in the work long enough to feel its strain — and to find ways through it. From following the child and respecting nature‑led limits, to building mobile animal programs and planning for succession, Suzie reflects on what it really takes to keep equine‑assisted work ethical, human, and sustainable over decades.If you want to support the show, you can do so at Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/LongRideHome

When Life Forces You to Zoom Out: Leadership, Faith, and What Really Matters This episode isn't about money, investing, or business tactics. It's about life, when it stops you in your tracks and forces you to reevaluate everything. I open up about what our family is walking through right now with our daughter, Logan, and how this season has reshaped the way I think about leadership, time, faith, and legacy.

On this week's episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Sids and Chris are joined by a former teammate - with spells at Arsenal, Liverpool, Stoke and Portsmouth (as well as being a long-time friend of the pod!) winger Jermaine Pennant for one of the most honest and equally hilarious conversations the pod has ever had.Jermaine opens up about being labelled “wasted talent”, growing up with zero structure, and how a late ADHD diagnosis finally helped him understand the chaos, impulsive decisions and moments that defined his career. From becoming a £2m teenager at Arsenal to playing in a Champions League final with Liverpool, Pennant reflects on the highs, the lows, and the managers who either got the best out of him — or completely missed the mark.The lads also dig into dressing-room dynamics, the importance of man-management, why Steve Bruce got it right, why Rafa Benítez didn't, and how football ultimately became Jermaine's escape from childhood trauma. There are laugh-out-loud stories (including one unforgettable pair of Liverpool boots), emotional moments, and a powerful reminder that success isn't always as simple as trophies and appearances.Plus, we've got darts chaos, Christmas plans, league twists and classic Crouchy tangents.As always — get involved in the comments.

⬥EPISODE NOTES⬥Modern application development depends on open source packages moving at extraordinary speed. Paul McCarty, Offensive Security Specialist focused on software supply chain threats, explains why that speed has quietly reshaped risk across development pipelines, developer laptops, and CI environments.JavaScript dominates modern software delivery, and the npm registry has become the largest package ecosystem in the world. Millions of packages, thousands of daily updates, and deeply nested dependency chainsഴ് often exceeding a thousand indirect dependencies per application. That scale creates opportunity, not only for innovation, but for adversaries who understand how developers actually build software.This conversation focuses on a shift that security leaders can no longer ignore. Malicious packages are not exploiting accidental coding errors. They are intentionally engineered to steal credentials, exfiltrate secrets, and compromise environments long before traditional security tools see anything wrong. Attacks increasingly begin on developer machines through social engineering and poisoned repositories, then propagate into CI pipelines where access density and sensitive credentials converge.Paul outlines why many existing security approaches fall short. Vulnerability databases were built for mistakes, not hostile code. AppSec teams are overloaded burning down backlogs. Security operations teams rarely receive meaningful telemetry from build systems. The result is a visibility gap where malicious code can run, disappear, and leave organizations unsure what was touched or stolen.The episode also explores why simple advice like “only use vetted packages” fails in practice. Open source ecosystems move too fast for manual approval models, and internal package repositories often collapse under friction. Meanwhile, attackers exploit maintainer accounts, typosquatting domains, and ecosystem trust to reach billions of downstream installations in a single event.This discussion challenges security leaders to rethink how software supply chain risk is defined, detected, and owned. The problem is no longer theoretical, and it no longer lives only in development teams. It sits at the intersection of intellectual property, identity, and delivery velocity, demanding attention from anyone responsible for protecting modern software-driven organizations.⬥GUEST⬥Paul McCarty, NPM Hacker and Software Supply Chain Researcher  | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mccartypaul/⬥HOST⬥Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/imsmartin/ | Website: https://www.seanmartin.com⬥RESOURCES⬥LinkedIn Post: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/mccartypaul_i-want-to-introduce-you-to-my-latest-project-activity-7396297753196363776-1N-TOpen Source Malware Database: https://opensourcemalware.comOpenSSF Scorecard Project: https://securityscorecards.dev⬥ADDITIONAL INFORMATION⬥✨ More Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast:

Will Modglin just delivered one of the fastest backstroke performances in NCAA history. In this episode of The Social Kick Podcast, we sit down with the new American record holder in the 100-yard backstroke after his 43.26 swim at the Texas Hall of Fame Invite. He also clocked the fastest 50-yard backstroke ever with a 20.00 lead-off split, coming within a touch of breaking one of swimming's most iconic barriers. A junior at the University of Texas and a U.S. National Team member, Will breaks down the mindset behind those record swims, the training culture at Texas under Bob Bowman, and how racing in one of the deepest backstroke groups in the NCAA has shaped his confidence. We also dive into his unusual versatility, including how he went 50.9 in the 100 breaststroke with minimal breaststroke-specific training, how he approaches event selection, and where IM and long-course goals fit into his future. The conversation wraps with audience questions and a rapid-fire round covering training, competition, and swim culture as Will looks ahead to what's next in a breakout career.

Today I host Scott Britton, a former tech entrepreneur who sold his company to Salesforce, to talk about a journey you rarely hear about: a profound spiritual and Kundalini awakening that hit him in the middle of his high-pressure career. We discuss why success and spirituality don't have to be separate paths, how he navigated years of spontaneous energy movements while running a business, and the practical method he developed to turn every business meeting and life challenge into a moment of spiritual growth.

Episode Description What if the peak of your career isn't when you're most celebrated—but when you no longer need to be? In this powerful and deeply reflective episode of the BOSS Business of Surgery Series, Dr. Amy Vertrees sits down with surgical oncologist and former military surgeon Dr. Matthew Hueman to explore belonging, burnout, identity, and the quiet work of finding peace in a demanding profession. Dr. Hueman shares his journey from growing up in a military family and training at West Point, to six military deployments where he discovered the true cost—and power—of belonging. He reflects on the flattening of hierarchy during his final deployment in Somalia and how that experience reshaped his understanding of purpose, leadership, and authenticity. After transitioning to civilian healthcare, Dr. Hueman found himself burned out—not from working hard, but from doing work that felt increasingly disconnected from meaning. That realization ultimately led him to leave a large healthcare system and focus his practice on breast cancer care, where he now prioritizes presence, relationships, and helping patients find peace amid uncertainty. Together, Drs. Vertrees and Hueman challenge long-held surgical norms around endurance, ownership, prestige, and external validation. They discuss why breast surgery is often undervalued, how surgeons delay happiness waiting for the “next milestone,” and what it really means to build a career that feels aligned—without waiting for permission. This episode is an invitation to stop postponing peace—and to begin finding it now. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why burnout is often about meaningless work, not workload The hidden cost of belonging—and why it matters in medicine How military experiences can reshape leadership and purpose Why breast surgery offers profound professional fulfillment How surgeons tie self-worth to endurance and external validation What it means to reach the “peak” of your career How to help patients—and ourselves—find peace in uncertainty Memorable Quotes “The peak of your career isn't when you're most celebrated. It's when you don't need to be celebrated at all.” “The hardest work feels weightless when it's aligned with purpose.” “Burnout isn't about working too hard—it's about meaningless hard work.” “You shouldn't postpone peace. You should do it today.” Chapters / Timestamps 00:00 – Dr. Hueman's background and early life 02:31 – West Point and the meaning of belonging 03:31 – Military deployments and evolving purpose 05:35 – Transition to civilian healthcare and burnout 08:16 – Comparing military and civilian medical missions 10:36 – Rethinking burnout in medicine 14:42 – Choosing breast cancer care 26:26 – Bias against breast surgery 37:10 – Redefining success and fulfillment 39:56 – Building a values-driven private practice 42:51 – Helping patients live with uncertainty 47:36 – Gratitude and emotional capacity About the Guest Dr. Matthew Hueman is a surgical oncologist with a focus on breast cancer care and a former U.S. Army surgeon with six deployments. After leaving a large healthcare organization, he built a private practice centered on presence, autonomy, and helping patients find peace in uncertainty. His work explores purpose, belonging, and meaning in medicine. About the Host Dr. Amy Vertrees is a general and breast surgeon, host of the BOSS Business of Surgery Series, and founder of Become the BOSS MD, a coaching program for surgeons focused on mindset, communication, and professional fulfillment.

A mother leans in, lowers her voice, and confesses—almost inshame—that her son, now in his thirties, is still living at home. He's unemployed. He spends most of his days in the basement playing PC games. Meanwhile, his sister—same upbringing, same parents—is thriving. She's independent, fulfilled, and living what appears to be the life of her dreams. This isn't an isolated story anymore. It's becoming a pattern.The old image of masculinity—the stoic provider, theemotional brick wall, the unflinching warrior—no longer fits a world that now values communication, emotional literacy, adaptability, and connection. And when an identity collapses without being replaced, people don't just feel confused—they feel ashamed, angry, and lost.#HealthyMasculinity #MenAndMentalHealth #ModernMasculinity #Relationships #EmotionalIntelligence #IdentityCrisis #PurposeDriven #SelfAwareness #MeaningfulConversations #PodcastEpisodeUseful Information:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.reinogevers.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Books:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sages, Saints and Sinners⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Deep Walking for Body Mind and Soul⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Walking on Edge: A pilgrimage to Santiago⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

What does true greatness look like in the Kingdom of Heaven? Jesus' answer may surprise us. In this sermon, we encounter John the Baptist at his lowest moment and hear Jesus call him the greatest who has ever lived. From prison cells to ordinary lives that seem to be going just fine, Jesus radically redefines greatness as something that transcends circumstances and upends the values of the world.True greatness, we learn, is not found in status, success, or recognition, but in becoming least, giving freely, and following the self-emptying way of Christ.

So many women hit midlife and suddenly find themselves whispering about things they never thought they'd struggle with, like desire, dryness, disconnection, or feeling like a stranger in their own body.

When you hit a career roadblock, the methods that worked for you before often stop working. Today, I'm diving into why that happens, and why the first and most critical step in progressing past stagnation isn't doubling down on skills, but clearly defining the problem standing in your way.Problem Definition As A Path for Career GrowthMy goal on the show is to help driven developers like you find clarity, perspective, and purpose in their careers. This episode is for everyone trying to grow, especially if you have hit some kind of roadblock. Most career progression, especially early on, happens somewhat automatically through natural experience, domain expertise, and skill accumulation,. However, as you progress, you will hit missing rungs or roadblocks—things preventing you from progressing in promotions, positions, or specific projects.When blocked, most people rely on the same things they did before, such as gaining experience, reading blogs, or building side projects, using a "scattershot approach" to try and guess what their managers want,. Unfortunately, relying on activity that previously got you ahead will not necessarily work later in your career,. As you climb the career ladder, the number of positions available decreases (the pyramid shape), meaning that even being highly qualified may not lead to the next role if it simply doesn't exist,.If you haven't defined the problem, you have no way of knowing whether the actions you are taking will help you progress where you want to go. Instead of continuing the never-ending cycle of self-improvement, you need to step outside your own context and try to see the problem from an external viewpoint, like a consultant. Recognizing the core problem—like a lack of available roles—allows you to shift your focus away from only improving your skill set and toward solving that specific organizational problem, perhaps by expanding the necessary scope for the role to open up,. Redefining the problem may mean shifting your goal from getting a promotion to convincing someone to let you perform the activities associated with that higher role, which is a different process entirely. In almost every circumstance where you are blocked, there is a problem that you need to work on defining better; this is the first step towards moving past the roadblock,.Explore why the natural career progression that works early on—driven by experience and skill accumulation—slows down and fails when you hit later-stage roadblocks,,.Discover why relying on a "scattershot approach" of extra activity, like reading blogs or building side projects, is often ineffective when facing a structural block in your career path,,.Understand that if a desired role doesn't exist within the company structure, becoming more skilled or qualified won't solve the organizational problem,.Learn how redefining your career problem—for instance, shifting from needing a promotion to needing permission to do high-level tasks—can open up entirely new pathways for growth.Challenge your self-improvement cycle by stepping outside your own context and defining your career roadblock as if you were an external consultant,.

Work–life balance isn't a destination — it's a feeling.And according to executive life coach Rebecca Olson, that feeling is available to you even in the chaos of practicing medicine and parenting young kids. In this powerful, paradigm-shifting conversation, we unpack why so many clinicians feel overwhelmed, what's actually happening inside your nervous system, and how to reclaim presence in the moments that matter most.Rebecca works with ambitious working parents — especially women — who want to go all in on their careers without sacrificing the relationships and values that matter most. Her approach blends mindset, emotional regulation, intentional decision-making, and practical tools you can implement immediately.Inside this episode, we dig into:✨ What “balance” really is (and why it's not a time-management problem)✨ Why your nervous system is running the show (and how to calm it in 30–120 seconds)✨ The transition that makes or breaks your evenings as a working parent✨ How to build boundaries that actually hold (even when it feels uncomfortable)✨ Redefining success after becoming a parentREBECCA OLSON COACHING https://www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/ DAILY KICKSTART RESOURCE https://www.ambitiousandbalanced.com/daily-kickstart SPONSORS: CM&F INSURANCE www.cmfgroup.com/ThePAIsIn Keywords: work-life balance, clinician burnout, nervous system regulation, emotional regulation tools, boundaries for clinicians, working parent mindset, Rebecca Olson coaching, PA wellness, presence practices, redefining success

Hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros reveal the hidden cost of prioritization that most people in self-improvement overlook. When your life grows, your decisions get heavier, your seasons shift, and consistency becomes a deliberate skill.

A submarine is one of the most demanding workplaces on Earth. Confined, tense, and utterly dependent on trust and focus. William Spears has spent his career in that world, learning how to lead and think clearly when everything around him demands perfection. His journey led him to Stoicism, a philosophy that teaches emotional discipline, clarity, and responsibility. In this episode, William explains how the same ideas that once guided ancient philosophers can help today's service members, veterans, and families face the stress of modern life. He talks about the link between Stoicism and modern therapy, how the idea of total responsibility changes how we lead and parent, and why writing down our thoughts can be one of the most powerful tools for mental clarity. This conversation is a practical guide to keeping your balance when life feels like it's closing in.

In this powerful and eye-opening episode of The Super Human Life, Coach Frank Rich sits down with longevity pioneer and author Dr. Jeffrey Gladden, founder of Gladden Longevity and a leading voice in human performance optimization.   Together, they challenge the cultural belief that aging is an inevitable decline and reveal how mindset, biology, technology, and purpose all intersect to determine how long (and how well) we live.   Dr. Gladden shares why aging is more of a mindset than a biological certainty, how purpose and spirituality directly impact health, and why the "questions you ask yourself" may be one of the most underrated longevity tools we possess.   The conversation dives deep into the nervous system, emotional fitness, relationships, AI advancements, and the future of biohacking, giving men a roadmap to living younger, stronger, and more intentionally for decades to come.   This is not a conversation about resisting aging. This is a conversation about redefining what's possible for the human experience.   Episode Highlights & Takeaways Aging is a mindset, not a destiny. Your beliefs about aging directly influence your biology and lifespan. Define your longevity goals early. Intentionality shapes the habits and systems that determine how well you age. Spirituality & purpose are longevity multipliers. Living aligned with meaning strengthens resilience, vitality, and emotional health. AI will revolutionize personalized health optimization. When used correctly, it can supercharge diagnostics, protocols, and prevention. The nervous system determines your youthfulness. Stress, trauma, and dysregulation accelerate aging more than most people know. Biohacking tools can support, but not replace foundational health. Tech is a supplement, not the solution. Your relationships shape your mental and physical longevity. Deep connection and emotional safety reduce biological aging markers. The quality of your questions defines the quality of your life. Better questions → better decisions → better outcomes. A fulfilling life is built on love and creation. Purpose, generosity, service, and self-expression deepen well-being at every age. Guest Bio:  Dr. Jeffrey Gladden Dr. Jeffrey Gladden is a visionary in human longevity, advanced performance, and regenerative health. A triple-board-certified interventional cardiologist turned longevity expert, Dr. Gladden spent decades at the forefront of cardiac innovation, co-founding the Heart Hospital Baylor Scott & White and developing leading cardiac programs across the country.   But it was his own battle with fatigue, brain fog, and declining vitality that pushed him to rethink traditional medicine and pursue a deeper truth: aging is not a fixed fate — it's a process we can influence, optimize, and even reverse.   Today, as the founder of Gladden Longevity, he leads a cutting-edge clinic that helps individuals "live young for a lifetime" through personalized diagnostics, breakthrough technologies, and his signature Symphony of Longevity framework. His bestselling book, 100 Is the New 30, challenges conventional beliefs about aging and explores what's truly possible when a person optimizes body, mind, purpose, and spirit.   Through his research, IRB-approved clinical trials, and global speaking, Dr. Gladden is on a mission to answer one profound question:   "How good can you be—physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually—as you age?"   --- Connect with Frank and The Super Human Life on Social Media: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coachfrankrich/   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/584284948647477/   Website: http://www.thesuperhumanlifepodcast.com/tshlhome   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjB4UrpxtNO2AFtDURMzoKQ
