In this "presidential summit," Brian Miller talks with Brent Sleasman, president of Winebrenner Theological Seminary, about why human-to-human interaction is becoming more important—not less—in an age of remote work, economic pressure, and accelerating AI. They explore the surprising value of presence (even silent presence on Zoom), the tradeoffs between convenience and community, and why the future threat may not be "AI takes over," but "we accept a life where we don't have to show up." Brent offers practical "resistance" practices: choose the right communication medium for the message, and become aware of how environments (digital and physical) quietly shape relationships. Big Ideas & Takeaways Presence is doing more work than we can explain. Brian describes long silent pauses on Zoom with close friends—awkward on paper, deeply meaningful in reality. Remote work is rational…and still costly. Brent names the tension: economics, childcare, and flexibility push us away from in-person life, even though we're built for connection. "Soft skills" aren't soft. They're survival skills. Can you make a phone call? Handle conflict politely? Speak to a real human when it's uncomfortable? Employers increasingly care. AI's superpower is efficiency—our humanity includes limits. Brent warns that AI can outpace human pace, tempting us to treat limits as defects instead of features. The bigger danger may be delightful surrender. Brian pushes back on the fantasy that it would be "great" if AI removes the need for human responsibility, effort, and showing up. Fear sells. Pay attention to who benefits. Brent cautions that AI panic can become a marketing strategy: frighten people, then sell them the solution. The cultural fork: Orwell vs. Huxley. Brent references Neil Postman: the threat may not be suppressed truth (1984), but being anesthetized by pleasure and convenience (Brave New World). Memorable Moments / Quotes (paraphrased) "We're just sitting there…quiet…looking at each other…and it feels important." "It makes no sense financially to go in person… and yet I feel like I need to go." "AI is off-the-chart efficient. What if humans aren't designed to be highly efficient?" "You're still the one hitting send." Practices Brent Recommends Match the medium to the message. Ask: Is this a text? An email? A call? A visit? Don't force one tool to do another tool's job. Raise your awareness of your environments. Tech and space shape relationships. Rooms, furniture, screens, workflows—none are neutral. They were designed, so they can be redesigned. Conversation Outline (Timestamp-ish) 00:00–02:30 Why human-to-human interaction will matter more (remote work, AI, lived experience) 02:30–06:00 The strange value of silence and presence (Zoom pauses, men's group) 06:00–10:40 Remote work tension + economics as a force pulling us away from in-person 10:40–18:50 Seminary/community: what changes, what doesn't; hybrid connection and annual in-person "anchor" time 18:50–27:40 AI: efficiency vs. humanity; the temptation to avoid real people; "I don't want AI to write—I want to write" 27:40–30:00 Postman, Brave New World, and resisting "pleasant" dehumanization 30:00–34:05 Practical resistance: medium choices + environmental awareness; close and call to action Listener Reflection Questions Where have you traded presence for convenience—and what has it cost you? What relationships need a phone call or a coffee instead of one more email? What "environment" (phone, office layout, family rhythms, tech stack) is shaping you more than you're shaping it? Where are you letting efficiency define what "good" looks like?

Practicing oncologist, adjunct professor at Duke University, and chief medical officer at AccessHope Yousuf Zafar discusses his article "Remote second opinions for equitable cancer care." Yousuf explains how a patient's zip code often dictates their survival odds despite biology showing that rural and urban patients have identical potential for recovery when given the same protocols. He details how the explosion of precision oncology has made cancer care vastly more complex, leaving community practices struggling to keep up with over 100 unique cancer subtypes. The conversation highlights how virtual reviews allow subspecialist expertise to flow from academic hubs to local clinics, changing treatment plans in over 52 percent of cases. Yousuf also emphasizes that this collaborative model supports rather than replaces local doctors by connecting them with just-in-time knowledge and clinical trial opportunities. Learn how technology is redrawing the map of medical expertise to ensure life-saving knowledge travels faster than the disease itself. Partner with me on the KevinMD platform.

Rachel Smith is an OB-GYN, lifelong mountain-lover, and person with type 1 diabetes who set out to summit Mount Vinson, Antarctica's tallest peak, in some of the harshest conditions on the planet. After climbs like Kilimanjaro and Aconcagua, she realized the biggest curiosity was not just the summit itself, but the diabetes strategy behind it: insulin safety, altitude, tech failures, and what it takes to navigate unpredictable blood sugars when you are far from help.In this episode, Rachel takes us into a 13-day Antarctica expedition (8 days on the mountain), where the sun never sets, the cold hits -50°C, and even treating a low can become complicated. You will hear what surprised her most, what she would do differently next time, and the message she wants every person with diabetes to carry with them: progress over perfection, and your goals do not have to shrink because you have T1D.WHAT WE COVER:Why Rachel chose Mount Vinson and why she decided to share the diabetes side publicly this timeThe realities of climbing in Antarctica: 24-hour daylight, extreme cold, and carrying everything yourselfManaging T1D on Kilimanjaro (manual testing) vs. Aconcagua and Vinson (pump + CGM)What happens when diabetes tech fails at altitude and in the cold (pump alarms, sensors cutting out)How Rachel kept insulin from freezing and built in backups (including guide support)Fueling strategy on long climb days: lower-carb mornings, steady carbs during breaks, and why it matteredSafety conversations with guides: how hypoglycemia symptoms can mimic altitude sicknessKEY TAKEAWAYS:1️⃣ Your plan needs redundancy. Remote climbs demand extra supplies, backup delivery methods, and contingency plans for freezing, loss, and tech failure.2️⃣ The environment changes everything. Altitude, cold, disrupted routine, stress hormones, and long-duration exertion can make blood sugars feel unlike your norm. That is not failure, it is data.3️⃣ Zoom out to rebuild trust. Rachel's CGM graphs looked more stable in hindsight than they felt in the moment, which is a reminder not to let one chaotic window define your confidence.WHAT'S NEXT:

In this episode of The Pro Audio Suite, the team digs into a large-scale remote recording with Robert Marshall, capturing a full orchestra and 100-plus voice choir performing Handel's Messiah inside a church. Robert breaks down his microphone choices, including Neumann KM184s, Austrian Audio CC8s, Schoeps mains, and why ORTF still delivers a convincing stereo image in complex acoustic spaces. We also talk about spot mic placement for piano and soloists, blending ambience naturally without artificial reverb, and the realities of recording live with zero second chances. The conversation drifts into mobile recording rigs, spinning-disk backups, FireWire laptops, remote recording trucks, and the kind of gear paranoia that only comes from doing this work solo for decades. It's a proper deep dive into classical capture, stereo technique, redundancy, and why "old-school" workflows still hold up in 2026.

The $250,000 Asset Sitting in Your Clinic Right Now Most clinic owners work nonstop to bring in new patients while completely ignoring the most valuable asset they already have. Their past patients. In this episode of the PT Entrepreneur Podcast, Danny explains how past clients can quietly represent hundreds of thousands of dollars in recurring revenue and why most clinics never tap into it. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why recurring revenue is the most valuable dollar in your clinic How past patients can generate predictable, stable income The math behind a $250,000 recurring revenue opportunity How one clinic built a six-figure program without ads What to offer past patients so they actually come back Why Past Patients Are Your Hidden Asset Most clinics have seen hundreds or even thousands of patients over the years. Many of those patients had great outcomes, trust the providers, and would happily return if given the right reason. Yet most clinics never follow up unless someone gets injured again. The Power of Recurring Revenue Recurring revenue creates stability. It allows owners to plan staffing, manage overhead, and grow without constant stress. Unlike the referral-eval-discharge model pushed by insurance, cash-based clinics can design ongoing services that fit patient needs and provider strengths. A Real-World Example Danny shares how one clinic launched a small group training and movement program by reaching out only to past patients. The first cohort filled immediately. A second group followed shortly after. No ads. No cold outreach. That single program now generates between $200,000 and $250,000 in gross revenue for one clinic, with members staying an average of nearly three years. Why This Works Past patients already trust you They know your quality of care You understand their history and goals They are far easier to re-engage than new leads What You Can Offer Recurring services do not have to be complex. They might include: Small group training or movement classes Monthly check-ins or tune-ups Ongoing strength, mobility, or longevity programs Remote coaching or programming The key is matching what you are good at with what your patients actually want. Create the Time to Think Strategically Many owners never build these programs because they are buried in documentation and admin work. Claire helps remove that burden so you can focus on patients and business growth. Try Claire free for 7 days Next Steps Review your past patient list Identify patients who had strong outcomes Test one simple recurring offer Start with direct outreach before ads If you are working toward going full time in your own practice, PT Biz offers a free Part Time to Full Time 5-Day Challenge.

Christine Malfair is a lifelong hotelier turned independent-hotel marketing fixer, with a career spanning cruise ships, GM roles, and 15 years building Malfair Marketing as an early "remote fractional CMO." She helps independent hotels cut through AI noise and get found by guests and machines without losing their minds. Susan and Christine talk about clarity, consistency, and competitive courage. • Employee use of ChatGPT and real risks to proprietary hotel data • Guardrails for AI use inside hotel teams without banning innovation • Remote hotel leadership before "remote" was normal • Building a marketing function when no department exists • "AI-ready" as an ecosystem, not a shiny new tool • Why vague hotel language disappears in AI discovery • Team buy-in as the difference between tech adoption and rebellion • AI as an intermediary, not a channel • Why independent hotels can win without the biggest budgets • Standing tall in what guests already love you for *** Our Top Three Takeaways AI rewards clarity, not complexity Being "AI ready" isn't about adopting new tools or chasing the latest platform. It's about tightening what already exists. Hotels that are specific, consistent, and clear across their websites, listings, reviews, and social content will be easier for AI to understand and recommend. Generic language and inconsistencies create friction and invisibility. 2. Simple systems outperform heroic effort Christine's experience, from cruise ships to strata hotels, reinforces the same truth. Well-designed systems reduce chaos and conflict, even in complex environments. The same applies to marketing and AI. Progress comes from manageable, repeatable steps, not massive overhauls or one-time pushes. 3. Differentiation matters more than budget AI acts like a digital intermediary, deciding what gets surfaced and why. In that environment, sameness is a liability. The independent hotels that win won't be the ones with the most spend or the most content. They'll be the ones that are clear about who they are, what guests love about them, and how they stand apart.

Bears heartbreak meltdown

Staffing entrepreneur Bill Kasko joins me to unpack what it actually takes to survive—and adapt—through decades of economic shocks, technology shifts, and human volatility.Most business stories compress time and smooth the edges. This one doesn't. Bill and I walk through his 21-year journey building Frontline Source Group across recessions, oil crashes, collapsing hiring markets, pandemic shutdowns, and now AI-driven disruption. From the early days of gratitude-driven work to the bitterness of 2008, from physical offices and gas-price friction to video interviews and remote work, this episode traces how survival depends less on foresight—and more on the ability to pivot without losing your core.We talk about why “vision” is overrated without execution, how every crisis quietly trains you for the next one, and why technological change today moves in minutes—not years. Bill shares hard-earned lessons on empathy, honesty, and when to say no, even when it costs money. The thread running through it all: businesses don't fail because things change—they fail because leaders refuse to adapt fast enough.This isn't a growth story. It's a durability story.TL;DR* You only truly “start over” once—experience compounds even after failure* Gratitude fades; resilience must replace validation* Technology shifts now happen in minutes, not years* Vision is easy—execution from where you are is the real work* Low adaptability, not bad luck, kills businesses* Remote work, automation, and AI reward speed—not certainty* Empathy scales better than ego in volatile systemsMemorable Lines* “Vision is easy—getting from here to there is what nobody talks about.”* “Every crisis trains you for the next one, whether you want it to or not.”* “Technology didn't kill businesses—refusal to adapt did.”* “You don't start over empty-handed; you start over with scar tissue.”* “AI can answer questions—but it can't replace empathy.”GuestBill Kasko — Founder & CEO, Frontline Source Group Staffing and executive search entrepreneur with over two decades navigating recessions, workforce revolutions, and technological disruption.Why This MattersThe modern business environment doesn't offer long plateaus—it delivers repeated shocks. Recessions, pandemics, automation, and shifting labor power structures are no longer anomalies; they're the operating system.For founders, operators, and executives rebuilding after disruption, this episode reframes survival not as toughness—but as adaptability with integrity. The future doesn't belong to the most confident leaders. It belongs to those who can absorb impact, adjust quickly, and keep the human core intact while everything else changes.Reinvention isn't optional anymore. It's the job. This is a public episode.

What if changing your culture didn't require a massive initiative, but just twenty focused minutes at a time? In this special five-part podcast series, Kevin Eikenberry is joined by Jennifer Moss for a practical, thought-provoking exploration of how leaders can create meaningful cultural change through small, intentional actions. How can leaders rebuild a sense of community at work when time feels scarce and connection feels optional? In this episode, Kevin and Jennifer focus on how leaders can strengthen community by intentionally creating small but powerful opportunities for connection. This conversation centers on the growing loss of connection in modern workplaces and why community is not a "nice to have," but a strategic priority. Kevin and Jennifer explore research showing that friendships at work drive engagement, retention, psychological safety, and performance, yet are steadily declining as workloads increase and people default to working in isolation. They share practical examples to create opportunities for people to come together, like stepping away from desks to eat together, celebrating small wins, and starting meetings with brief personal connection activities.

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Noel Andrews discuss:Prioritizing others to drive long-term successDelegation as a lever for higher-value workHiring and managing support effectivelyShifting from doing to thinking as a leader Key Takeaways:Sustainable business growth comes from helping team members, clients, and referral partners achieve their goals first. Celebrate client milestones, develop your team, and make introductions without expecting immediate returns. Focusing outward builds trust, loyalty, and lasting relationships that compound over time.Lawyers often get stuck handling admin, marketing, and operations alongside legal tasks. Listing tasks to delegate frees you to focus on work only you can do and grow the firm strategically. Delegation transforms busywork into leverage and career impact.Start with clarity: define tasks first, then map them to a role, location, and level of support. Remote talent in regions like Eastern Europe or South Africa can provide high-quality work at a lower cost. Clear KPIs, meaningful projects, and trust are more effective than micromanaging hours.Resist the urge to control every detail; hire capable assistants to own outcomes. Delegating at a high level frees time for strategic thinking and future planning. Leaders must balance action with observation to maximize impact and firm growth. "Every single time I've ever done the next stage for me, or the next step in really investing in supporting my team, particularly in their personal lives, the results are just huge." —  Noel Andrews"Profit is what happens when you get everything else right." — Yvon Chouinard, Founder of Patagonia Check out my new show, Be That Lawyer Coaches Corner, and get the strategies I use with my clients to win more business and love your career again. Ready to go from good to GOAT in your legal marketing game?

In this episode of Secrets of the Top 10%, Brian sits down with Sangwon Lim, Founder & CEO of PhyxUp Health, to explore how Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM) is being used as both a revenue strategy and a clinical success system for modern physical therapy practices. Rather than focusing on buzzwords or billing codes, this conversation centers on what truly happens between visits—and why visibility during that time is becoming essential for patient outcomes, therapist efficiency, and practice sustainability. https://phyxuphealth.com/

“Founder-led selling is still the most powerful kind of selling.” — Dave GulasIn this week's episode, Carol Schultz sits down with Dave Gulas, Co-Founder and President of EZDC 3PL, to talk about what sales teams must lean into as 2026 approaches: visibility, authenticity, and relationship-driven selling in a world flooded with AI-generated noise. Dave explains why generic cold pitches on LinkedIn are failing, and how personal branding and real opinions help salespeople differentiate and build trust.Dave also shares the origin story of EZDC 3PL, built after seeing “big box” logistics providers become complacent during and after the supply chain chaos of COVID. He breaks down why customer service, communication, and accountability are the real advantage in a market where thousands of 3PLs offer similar “space and labor.”The conversation begins with a timely real-world issue in freight: theft and “burning an MC number,” where bad actors exploit carrier identity loopholes to steal loads fast before anyone can respond. From there, they move into scaling a logistics company, managing a remote warehouse team from a different state, and why hiring the right people (and learning from the wrong hires) is core to building a strong workplace culture.Finally, Dave talks about launching the Beyond Fulfillment podcast as a learning tool during the hardest early stages of growth — and how consistency turned it into 220+ episodes, a growing YouTube channel, and high-level founders reaching out to be guests.Takeaways:Authenticity and visibility are essential for sales in 2026.Cold pitching without relationships is not real selling.AI is making generic outreach worse, not better.Differentiation comes from real opinions and human connection.Great customer service and over-communication build long-term trust.Founder-led selling is difficult to replace at high-stakes moments.Early growth mistakes help define your ideal customer profile.Remote teams work best with strong leaders and clear systems.Hiring the right people is a growth multiplier.Consistency in content can create unexpected opportunities.Chapters:00:00 Welcome + Why sales teams need this in 202600:32 What EZDC 3PL does (warehousing, fulfillment, transportation)01:04 Real-time supply chain theft and diverted freight02:27 How freight theft happens + “burning an MC number”03:22 The #1 sales strategy for 2026: visibility and authenticity04:33 Why cold pitching on LinkedIn is broken05:11 The “fake compliment → wild promise → demand a meeting” script06:01 How AI reinforces bad sales outreach06:48 Why Dave founded EZDC 3PL08:17 The meaning behind the name EZDC 3PL09:23 How COVID changed logistics and created complacency10:29 Customer service as the real differentiator12:50 Why Kentucky is a strategic warehouse location13:15 Managing a remote warehouse team as a founder14:21 Founder's “zone of genius” and role clarity15:40 Why 3PL isn't just “space and labor”16:37 Early mistakes: taking the wrong clients18:06 Bottlenecks to growth: space, timing, inventory transfers20:34 Will Dave always lead sales?21:53 Founder presence on sales calls (even at billion-dollar scale)24:11 Why sales hires often fumble the message27:56 Building culture through hiring lessons30:13 Why Dave started the Beyond Fulfillment podcast31:29 Consistency results: 220+ episodes and 13K YouTube subscribers32:58 Where to learn more about EZDC 3PL + closingConnect With Host Carol SchultzFind more information about our host Carol Schultz and her company at

Since when did cosy chats about books suck up quite so many headlines? Adelaide Writers' Week is the longest-running literary event in Australia and this week it collapsed under the weight of its own controversy. So, Em asks Holly and Jessie, what are writers' festivals for, anyway? Jennifer Lawrence re-homed her dogs after she had a baby and Jessie wants to know why nobody warned her that talking about that will ruin her life. And Jessie would know. When does a situationship become a boy/girlfriend? And when does a boy/girlfriend become a partner? And does anyone (apart from Raye) like the word husband? Thanks to Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner, we have a new commitment ladder for relationships in 2026. Also, the job choice that can predict your age and stage. And the new endo test that could change everything for women tired of waiting for an answer about why they're in agony. Oh, and did Holly just get fleeced by Harry Styles?

In this episode of the Hope and Possibilities Podcast, I talk about what I'm seeing for 2026 and the future of work. My focus is shifting from solely helping companies adopt hybrid and remote work to looking at leadership more broadly. Flexibility, autonomy, and well-being aren't just perks anymore—they're core to how people want to work and how organizations succeed. We'll talk about the pressures around office return mandates, AI, and workforce reduction, and why I don't buy the narrative that humans are expendable. Instead, leadership in the future is about reinvention, redistributing work, and making sure people feel that they matter. I'll also share how I plan to use this podcast, my newsletter, LinkedIn, and email to create space for nuanced conversations about the future of work. And I want to hear from you—what questions are keeping you awake at night? Key Topics & Timestamps: [00:00:22] Why I'm pivoting my focus for 2026 [00:00:53] Why hybrid and flexible work aren't going away [00:01:32] Why autonomy and well-being often matter more than compensation [00:03:00] The circular debates around office space, identity, and leadership [00:04:39] How AI is changing the way work happens [00:06:26] Navigating conflicting narratives about AI and workforce reduction [00:07:16] Leadership as continuous reinvention, not a one-time project [00:08:34] Why making people feel they matter is central to leadership [00:09:49] Discernment as a critical skill in an increasingly complex world [00:11:05] How work is evolving—universal benefits, portfolio careers, and new models [00:12:06] How I'm shifting the podcast, newsletters, and my content strategy [00:15:10] How you can interact with the podcast and share your questions [00:16:26] Questions to reflect on: identity, life quakes, and navigating change Connect & Engage: Leave me a voicemail with your questions or thoughts: https://podcastfeedback.com/hopeandpossibilities Follow me on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/nolasimon Subscribe to my newsletter: Hope & Possibilities: A Love Letter to the Future of Work | Nola Simon | Substack Hire me via website: www.nolasimon.com Takeaway: The future of work is about flexibility, discernment, and creating environments where people feel valued.

Yulun Wang, executive chairman and co founder at Sovato Health, joins Amir Bormand to unpack the next wave after telemedicine, procedural care at a distance. If you have ever wondered what it would take for a top surgeon to operate without being in the same room, this conversation gets practical fast, from the real bottlenecks inside operating rooms to the health system changes required to make remote robotics mainstream.Key takeaways• Better care can actually cost less when the right expertise reaches the right patient at the right time• Telemedicine is already normalized, which sets the stage for faster adoption of remote procedures once infrastructure and workflows catch up• Surgical robots already have two sides, the surgeon console and the patient side, today connected by a short cable, the leap is making that connection work reliably across hundreds or thousands of miles• Volume drives proficiency, the outcomes gap between high volume specialists and low volume settings is one of the biggest reasons access matters• Operating rooms spend more than half their time on steps around surgery, which creates room to dramatically increase surgeon throughput when workflows are redesignedTimestamped highlights• 00:42 What Sovato Health is building, bringing procedural expertise to patients without requiring travel• 02:10 The early days of surgical robotics and the transatlantic gallbladder surgery on September 7, 2001• 05:30 The counterintuitive idea, higher quality care can reduce total cost in healthcare• 10:27 What actually changes for patients, local hospitals stay the destination, expertise becomes the thing that travels• 14:57 Why repetition matters, the first question patients ask is still the right one• 17:53 Inside the operating room schedule, where time is really spent and why productivity can jumpA line that sticks“Healthcare is different, higher quality, if done right, costs less.”Practical angles you can steal• If you are building in regulated industries, adoption is rarely about the tech alone, it is about trust, workflows, and incentives• If you sell into health systems, position the value around system level outcomes, access, quality, and margin improvement, not just novelty• If you are designing new workflows, look for the hidden capacity, the biggest gains often sit outside the core taskCall to actionIf you want more conversations like this at the intersection of tech, systems, and real world impact, follow The Tech Trek on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Show SummaryOn today's episode, we're featuring a conversation with Navy Spouse Patty Sandoval, Founder and CEO of HomeFront Haven, an organization that provides clinically informed community support to military spouses and partners before, during and after a deployment so that no one carries the homefront alone. Provide FeedbackAs a dedicated member of the audience, we would like to hear from you.

Please follow this link to share how PsychArmor has helped you in your service journey Share PsychArmor StoriesAbout Today's GuestPatricia “Patty” Sandoval, is a proud military spouse and public health professional. She built HomeFront Haven™ after experiencing mental health struggles during her husband's deployment in 2023. During that period, Patty found that there was a critical need for evidence backed care focused on supporting positive mental health outcomes among military spouses and partners. During the deployment, Patty kept hearing “You knew what you signed up for” and friends would reassure her that she'd be “ok.” Instead, Patty found herself exhausted, anxious, and feeling incredibly alone.  To ensure that others wouldn't have to experience the same journey, she sought to advance a preventative approach to mental health.HomeFront Haven™'s model prioritizes community-based support as a critical strategy to reduce reliance on crisis care systems. Instead of asking spouses and partners, “Didn't you know what you signed up for?” this program asks, “How can we support you, so you don't have to carry the home front alone?”Links Mentioned During the EpisodeHomeFront Haven Web SitePsychArmor Resource of the WeekThis week's PsychArmor Resource of the Week is The PsychArmor course Accessing Health Care.

Remote work, which was a necessity for many during the pandemic, is now commonplace. While it's hard to beat the commute, criminals are paying close attention to this trend too. In this episode, a recent MBA graduate lands what feels like her dream job at a start-up that advocates for women's empowerment. The company culture is great and the job is interesting. But when her paychecks never show up, she begins to suspect the work-from-home job is too good to be true.

The next major U.S. national census is in 2030, but this year, the Census Bureau will conduct field tests to try to come up with better ways to count the most hard-to-reach populations. In Alaska, officials came up with a plan during the last census to count one of the most remote villages in that state. Alaska Public Media's Matt Faubion reports.
