AI in healthcare only works when it is built for real workflows, real systems, and real change management. In this episode, Ganesh Padmanabhan, Founder and CEO of Autonomize AI, joins Saul Marquez to unpack what it really takes to deploy AI in healthcare operations at scale. Ganesh shares why many point solutions create islands of efficiency instead of fixing end-to-end processes, and why prompting an LLM is the easy part compared to building production-ready AI that integrates into enterprise systems, meets compliance requirements, and earns clinical trust. He also offers a practical playbook for implementation: anticipate the trust gap, design for behavior change, and treat deployment as a true team sport across tech, clinical, ops, and compliance.

Behavioral addictions like gambling are real behavioral health conditions, not character flaws, and they can hide in plain sight. In this episode, Davina Mena, Tribal Liaison for the Arizona Division of Problem Gambling, explains how behavioral addictions work and why gambling is often misunderstood, including how it can rewire the brain's reward system much like substance use disorders. She describes how gambling addiction can surface at work through distraction, missed time, stress, and financial pressure, even when individuals appear high-functioning. Davina offers practical guidance for families and individuals, emphasizing empathy, healthy boundaries, honest self-checks, and awareness of local resources. She also urges providers to integrate brief screening questions into routine care and discusses the unique realities for tribal communities, where casinos support economic sovereignty while still posing risks that deserve proactive attention. Tune in to better understand behavioral addictions, reduce stigma, and learn concrete ways families, providers, and communities can respond.

How do we decide what “good care” looks like, and who gets to choose the scorecard? In this episode of Turn on the Lights, Kedar Mate speaks with Dr. Michelle Schreiber of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and Brenna Rabel of Battelle about how quality measures are developed, adopted, and applied across Medicare and Medicaid programs. They explore why measurement is essential for accountability, patient choice, and improvement, while also acknowledging its vulnerability to politics, feasibility constraints, and “teaching to the test.” Using diabetes and sepsis as examples, they explain how performance cutoffs are established, why “all-or-none” measures often face resistance, and what makes complex measures difficult to report and score. The conversation also addresses efforts to reduce reporting burden, including CMS's shift from broader MIPS reporting toward MIPS Value Pathways and the expansion of digital quality measurement through FHIR-enabled eCQMs. They conclude with a forward-looking discussion on how artificial intelligence could reduce manual chart abstraction and advance quality measurement, particularly as patient-reported outcomes play a larger role in shaping the future of value-based care. Tune in to hear how measures shape what health systems prioritize, what gets improved, and what “value” could look like in the future.

What happens when we slow down enough to truly feel our bodies?In this episode, host Elizabeth Mintun sits down with assisted stretch practitioner Lisa to explore the transformative potential of assisted stretching and body awareness. Drawing from nearly two decades of experience in massage therapy and training in Thai yoga massage, Lisa shares how slow, supported stretching can help people reconnect with their bodies, regulate the nervous system, and release long-held tension.We talk about the difference between performing movement versus receiving movement, why many of us are disconnected from our bodies, and how intentional stretching can create space for both physical and emotional release.This conversation offers a thoughtful look at how practices that reconnect us to the body can shift not only how we move, but also how we live.Key TakeawaysAssisted stretching can support nervous system regulation. Slow, guided stretching helps activate the parasympathetic nervous system - the part of the body responsible for rest and relaxation - allowing muscles to release tension and the body to settle.Fascia plays a major role in flexibility and tension. Fascia, the connective tissue that surrounds muscles and organs, can become tight and restricted over time due to stress, repetitive movement, or inactivity. Gentle stretching can help improve fascial mobility and overall movement.Reconnecting with the body can support emotional well-being. Many people store stress and emotional tension physically. Bodywork practices like assisted stretching can create space for relaxation, emotional release, and a deeper sense of grounding.Resources Connect with Lisa: - Instagram: Prostretchflex1 - Facebook: Pro Stretch & Flex-TikTok: @pro.stretch.and.f- LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/lisa-binkley-21862b352- Website: prostretchflex.com- Email: prostretchflex@gmail.comLearn more about 1:1 Coaching with Elizabeth Mintun here.

In this episode, Jeff Geppert, Senior Research Leader at Battelle Memorial Institute, discusses the lifecycle and future of health care quality measurement in value-based care. He explains how measures move from multi-year development and evidence testing through endorsement and CMS rulemaking before being implemented in federal programs. He addresses concerns about measurement overload, noting that health care complexity has driven the growth in measures but that rising infrastructure costs, interoperability demands, and AI adoption may force greater focus and parsimony. He also shares why he's optimistic that emerging technologies will better align quality measurement with quality improvement, helping uncover root causes of variation and drive meaningful value in care delivery. Tune in to explore where health care measurement is headed, and why the future may be more focused, fair, and impactful than ever. Resources: Connect with and follow Jeff Geppert on LinkedIn.

From boardrooms to headlines, vendor pitches to strategy decks, AI is suddenly everywhere. For many leaders, the conversations surrounding AI can be confusing and overwhelming. Is AI really helpful, or just overhyped? This episode of the Forward Thinking Podcast features FCCS SVP of Marketing and Communications Stephanie Barton and Michael Thomas, Chief Data Scientist at Ketchbrook Analytics for a conversation about AI without the BS – by demystifying AI misconceptions, exploring AI opportunities and risks, and understanding how leaders today can implement AI into the broader digital transformation journey strategy. Episode Insights Include: Common AI misconceptions in farm credit boardrooms AI being used for loan decisioning. Generative AI should not be used to make individual loan data decisions. AI being used as a general blanket for an entire organization. Generalized AI models can be leveraged to increase productivity. AI cannot be thrown at all customized business processes. Individual questions cannot effectively be answered by AI. Positive applications of AI in farm credit Microsoft CoPilot is being used effectively to effectively summarize and generalize document content. Extensive pdf documents can be simplified with AI assistance. Large language models can assist with the farm credit system. Possibilities for further AI adaptation Prompt-driven user dashboards can allow for quicker recall of desired information. Large language models can bring data together for the user. Product catalogues chatbots can provide quick answers for users. Try it and see – AI has countless possibilities that may be helpful. AI versus machine learning and automation AI usually refers to generative AI. Machine learning generally outputs one fixed idea. Generative AI is a newer concept that produce varying lengths of output. Machine learning helps organizations make better, data-driven decisions. Generative AI helps organizations be more efficient across a variety of day-to-day tasks. Both have applicability to automation. Promising applications for AI application in farm credit Increased efficiency is guaranteed with AI. Sales should be working with a large language model to create a polished sales pitch. AI can be leveraged to review the work that you have already done. AI can support, review, and enhance your original thoughts and work. Avoiding the risks and dangers of AI There is little to no room for error in farm credit, and AI is not fool-proof. AI offers promises including improved hiring and productivity gains. Critical thinking skills are at risk from AI, as well as the messy deployment of fully autonomous AI agents. Additional improvements include revolutionary game-changers in medicine and science. Troubleshooting problems can be addressed more quickly with AI assistance. Longterm adaptation has to be rolled out in a way that complements the workforce. This podcast is powered by FCCS.

In this episode, Brittni Schroeder shares the story behind the hardest year of her life — navigating divorce, relocating from Texas to Utah, sending her son on a two-year mission to Brazil for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and walking alongside her daughter after a devastating skiing accident left her with a broken back.

A traumatic birth can happen to anyone, and it's much more common than we might think. Today's show focuses on birth trauma, what it looks like, and how the healing journey can positively reshape someone's parenting experience. There is help! Join us to learn more! Dr. Maya Weir is a clinical psychologist who specializes in birth trauma and the emotional transitions of early parenthood. Inspired by her own experience of becoming a parent, she understands how profound, overwhelming, and transformative this stage of life can be. Dr. Weir supports parents in making sense of their journey, healing from birth trauma, and cultivating grounded, connected ways to move forward. She offers short-term therapy for individuals and couples who are processing birth trauma, along with longer-term support for parents navigating the challenges of early parenthood. Based in Napa, CA, Dr. Weir provides virtual therapy throughout CA. Show Highlights: Birth trauma: an explanation and examples Many people go through birth trauma and don't realize it until later. Invalidation compounds the original trauma. Common symptoms of birth trauma: triggering memories, anxiety, and relationship issues Strategies used to address birth trauma focus on somatic techniques. Expected results of therapy for birth trauma Understanding the intersection of different types of trauma Therapy for birth trauma addresses feelings of guilt, blame, and failure. Huge issues remain in the birthing system regarding how mothers are treated and spoken to in the sacred moments of childbirth. A partner can feel shame for “not showing up” to prevent birth trauma. (Partners can greatly benefit from therapy, too!) Recognizing generational shifts in parenting today Key takeaways from Dr. Weir: “Healing is possible, your birth story deserves space, and you deserve to feel better and have access to parenting resources.” Resources: Connect with Dr. Maya Weir Website and Instagram Call the National Maternal Mental Health Hotline at 1-833-TLC-MAMA or visitcdph.ca.gov.

What would it look like if aging in America came with a real plan instead of a quiet free fall? In this episode, Dr. Joanne Lynn, a longtime geriatric and hospice physician and elder-care policy leader, explains how longer lives have outpaced the systems people rely on when disability arrives.

Episode Overview In this powerful episode of the Agent to CEO Podcast, John Kitchens sits down with Chad Smith for a deep conversation on leadership, faith, discipline, and building a real estate business that actually lasts. Chad shares his incredible journey—from chasing a music career and hitting rock bottom at 23, to rebuilding his life through faith, mentorship, and personal responsibility. He walks through how foundational principles—not tactics—became the key to scaling a $100M+ real estate team, leading hundreds of agents, and maintaining a 20+ year commitment to faith, family, and purpose. This is not a "hacks and scripts" conversation. This is about priority structure, uncommon honor, servant leadership, and what it truly takes to win long-term. If you want seven-figure success without sacrificing what matters most, this episode will challenge and sharpen you. Chad's Origin Story: From Rock Bottom to Real Estate Leadership Walking away from a soccer scholarship to pursue music Playing the Whiskey A Go Go in Hollywood at 20 years old Facing rejection and spiraling into rock bottom by age 23 The life-changing influence of his uncle and exposure to Rich Dad, Poor Dad Discovering a new framework for life through faith and the "Man of Honor" message Committing to a priority structure that changed everything Chad made a declaration early: He would never become a "shooting star" again. The Priority Structure That Changed His Life Chad breaks down the foundation that drives every decision he makes: Faith Marriage Children Excellence in business to serve others Rather than building business at the expense of family, Chad built leadership capacity so he wouldn't have to choose between success and presence. He hasn't worked nights or weekends since 2009—and his production scaled because of it, not in spite of it. Uncommon Honor: The Core Value That Scales Culture Chad introduces the concept of Uncommon Honor, a leadership philosophy that drives his team culture. What it means: Honor those who showed you the way Honor your peers Honor those who can't "help" you Tell the truth—even when it's uncomfortable Protect the environment at all costs "If at any point I'm unwilling to say what needs to be said, that's the moment the environment begins to die." This is servant leadership without weakness. Truth with courage. Culture without compromise. The Leadership Shift: From Competitor to Capacity Builder Chad shares a powerful mindset shift: If you're threatened by your team's greatness, you'll never scale. He lives by this commitment: "I'm not afraid of you being great." Key leadership insights: Every dream is a dream inside a dream The moment a leader becomes a limiting factor to talent is the moment the relationship ends Competition is rooted in scarcity True growth comes from competing against your own potential This is the shift from ego-driven leadership to legacy-driven leadership. Building a $100M+ Team Without Losing Alignment Chad details how he: Went from individual agent of the year to scaling leadership capacity Helped grow a Keller Williams office to one of the most profitable in the world Sold 371 homes in a 12-month period with a lean, disciplined team Built core values intentionally—not aspirationally Created "The Real Solution" coaching community rooted in long-term principles His focus isn't hype. It's systems, discipline, daily consistency, and alignment. The Real Solution vs. The Easy Button Chad challenges the modern "magic bullet" mentality. In a world obsessed with shortcuts, he built growth through: Daily consistency (260+ live leadership sessions per year) Clear values Intentional mentorship Long-term commitment "You either train the algorithm, or the algorithm trains you." This is about discipline over distraction. Foundation over flash. Books & Influences Mentioned Rich Dad, Poor Dad – Robert Kiyosaki The Success System That Never Fails – W. Clement Stone Wooten on Leadership – John Wooden John Maxwell leadership books Resources & Connect with Chad Instagram: @ChadSmithRealSolution Website: TheRealSolution.com Team: DFW Real Estate Team Final Takeaway This episode isn't about better scripts. It's about better structure. If you want to scale your real estate business without sacrificing your marriage, your kids, or your integrity, you must: Get your priority structure right Lead with uncommon honor Refuse to compete from scarcity Never become a limiting factor to your team Commit to consistency over hype Seven-figure success doesn't start with tactics. It starts with thinking like a CEO—and leading like a servant.

As supply chain technology accelerates, the ability to translate operational knowledge into scalable systems is becoming a defining advantage for both companies and early-career talent. In this episode of Supply Chain Now's Now Generation series, Scott W. Luton sits down with Ryan Goodwin, Sr. Director of Supply Chain Technology & Innovation at Trinity Industries and an adjunct professor at Texas Christian University, alongside Titus Fagan, TCU Student Body Vice President and a third-year accounting major with a minor in energy business.Ryan shares how his team is integrating planning, MRP, and financial data into platforms that enable faster automation and application-building, often with the help of AI and “vibe coding,” where non-traditional builders can create real tools without a formal software background. Titus brings the student lens, explaining why practitioner-led teaching changes the classroom experience, how simulation-based learning builds cross-functional thinking, and why early responsibility and collaboration are top priorities when evaluating future employers.Together, they explore how AI can lower barriers to entry, accelerate skill development, and reduce manual work while also raising bigger questions about infrastructure, power demand, and the bottlenecks that can slow even the most innovative systems. From freight reporting automation to energy transmission constraints, this conversation connects the dots between learning, leadership, and the fast-evolving reality of global supply chains.Jump into the conversation:(00:00) Intro(00:37) The Now Generation and why TCU stands out(02:23) Introducing Ryan and Titus(04:20) Titus' weather forecasting hobby(06:28) Ryan's board game community(09:13) Ryan's work at Trinity Industries(11:32) AI, platforms, and “vibe coding”(20:00) Bottlenecks and infrastructure strain(27:34) A discussion on nuclear power(28:21) Modernizing the accounting path(30:25) Cross-functional collaboration matters(33:30) What Titus wants from employers(38:14) Learning through simulation games(40:37) Why professors keep evolving(42:49) TCU's teacher-scholar approach(46:53) Trade shows and career exposureAdditional Links & Resources:Connect with Ryan Goodwin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryancgoodwin/Connect with Titus Fagan: https://www.linkedin.com/in/titus-fagan-77b547291Learn more about Trinity Industries: https://www.trin.net/Learn more about TCU's Neeley School of Business: https://www.neeley.tcu.edu/Learn more about WISE by The University of Arkansas:
Ever feel like you're stuck in the "messy middle" and on the operations "hamster wheel" in your practice? If so, this one's for you. Mandy Brown joins me to talk about operational efficiency and what it really takes to run a well-functioning optometry practice. We discuss the challenges practice owners face with delegation, the importance of hiring the right people, and developing an operational mindset that supports long-term success.

Leading a major health system today means juggling patient-first ethics with a financing model that keeps tightening the screws. In this episode, Chris Van Gorder, President and Chief Executive Officer of Scripps Health, explains why health care is becoming structurally unaffordable amid soaring premiums, uncompensated emergency care, and rising input costs. He describes how hospitals have become the default safety net as county systems disappear, while underpayment by Medicare and Medicaid forces cost shifting onto employers and commercially insured patients. Van Gorder also highlights California's seismic rebuilding mandates, which create massive capital pressure without matching reimbursement. He critiques managed care, value-based care, and Medicare Advantage for pushing risk onto providers through prior authorization and denials, recounting Scripps' difficult decision to exit several Medicare Advantage contracts after heavy losses and the downstream impact on patients. Tune in and learn how payment design, intermediaries, and regulation shape what hospitals can sustain and what patients can access. Resources: Connect with and follow Chris Van Gorder on LinkedIn.

This week, Jake and Bob welcome John Edwards, a fellow guy in the pew, to share his raw and redemptive journey from addiction and secrecy to finding his identity in God. From outward success and hidden cocaine use to the devastating loss of his mother, John reveals how grief, shame, and a longing for affirmation shaped his choices—and nearly destroyed his marriage and family. He opens up about the masks he wore, the lies he believed about God as a harsh judge, and the panic attacks that finally exposed the prison he was living in. With honesty and courage, John recounts the night he chose confession over isolation, and how mercy began to break through years of self-reliance and despair. If you've ever felt abandoned by God or buried under your own failures, this conversation is an invitation to bring your whole story into the light. Key Points: The absence of emotional affirmation from John's father created a deep wound and a longing to feel seen. Addiction to drugs, alcohol, and pornography became a way to numb pain and pursue belonging and control. John describes living behind layers of "masks" to hide his addiction and shame from others. Marriage and fatherhood did not automatically heal John's wounds, and secrecy continued to damage family life. The death of John's mother shattered his emotional security and intensified his anger toward God. Fear of being exposed kept John trapped in lies and prevented him from asking for help. John's arrest and imprisonment brought total loss of control and the collapse of his false identities. In the jail cell, John experienced profound powerlessness and the end of his ability to hide. Surrendering control marked the moment when true freedom began. Jesus met John in his darkest place, revealing that He never abandoned him. Christ goes anywhere to restore broken hearts.

If rankings go up but phone calls do not, what did SEO really accomplish?SEO is changing fast with AI and new search behavior, but most clients still judge success the same way. Phone calls. Traffic.

2B Bolder Podcast : Career Insights for the Next Generation of Women in Business & Tech
Want a masterclass in credibility, change communications, and career resilience without the fluff? I had the opportunity to sit down with senior communications leader Elaina Dulaney to unpack how strategic storytelling, trusted relationships, and a servant leadership mindset can carry you from small software gigs to agency depth and into the halls of Big Tech on episode #152 of the 2B Bolder podcast. Elaina shares the early principle that shaped her career arc, build experience before kids to create future choice, and the unexpected phone call that turned into an agency, Microsoft work, and eventually a corporate leadership role right before the world shifted.She and I get candid about today's market: how budgets are tighter, rates are pressured, and job boards can feel like a black hole. Elaina breaks down a practical system for job seekers, 10% applications, 25–30% AI upskilling, 25–30% brand building, and the rest on targeted networking, plus the one constant that still moves mountains: relationships. We talk through “overqualified” bias, why great managers hire strategic doers, and how to spot roles where scope expands but recognition lags. You'll hear real tactics to surface referrals, maintain momentum, and protect your mindset when you face rejections, even though you are quite capable of the role.For leaders, we dig into the communication blind spots that quietly sink trust: last-minute reviews, skipped rehearsals, and messages that forget the audience. Elaina outlines a change comms playbook built on consistency across stakeholders, durable truth, and live Q&A that shows transparency under pressure. And because AI is changing the craft, we frame it as a copilot, not the pilot, so strategy, ethics, and empathy stay human. We also explore executive presence on LinkedIn, balancing authenticity with professionalism without slipping into performative posts.If you're building a career in communications, marketing, or tech, or you lead teams through complexity, you'll leave with a sharper toolkit and renewed conviction that reputation and community are your edge.
