Karly Scott, Manager of Client Services at Logical Position, leads an enterprise-level PPC strategy focused on sustained growth, experimentation, and brand impact. In this episode, she explains how Logical Position supports brands from small startups to those generating over $50 million by managing PPC, Amazon, email, and social media campaigns. The agency's success comes from its strong relationships with partners like Google and Meta, its people-first culture, and its focus on data-driven marketing that adapts to the fast-changing AI-driven landscape. Karly highlights that effective digital marketing requires patience, testing, and diversification across multiple platforms. She shares how one client, Cushion Lab, scaled from $15,000 in ad spend to millions in sales through experimentation and a multichannel strategy. She also urges businesses to invest in creative content and video, emphasizing that consumers now trust YouTube and visual media during research. Her message is clear: if your digital presence isn't optimized across AI, SEO, and paid media, you're missing opportunities to be seen when it matters most. Quotes: “Marketing is so centered in math and data and numbers. I went into that industry thinking one thing and came out very, very different.” “If you're unwilling to take some risks when it comes to digital advertising, you're going to quickly fall behind.” “If you aren't there during the research phase, you sure as heck are not going to be there during the purchasing phase.” Resources: Connect with Karly Scott on LinkedIn Explore Karly Scott's expertise and professional insights

Misinformation is a growing problem, with most Americans worried about the reliability of online information. Dan Nottingham created Mi Credible.ai to help people navigate this landscape by providing a credibility score for statements. The tool uses multiple AI models to objectively analyze sources, offering a numerical score and an explanation so users can assess the accuracy of their content before sharing it. This approach helps reduce bias, promotes informed communication, and gives businesses and individuals a measurable way to maintain trust and credibility online. Mi Credible.ai can be used for business, social, and casual purposes, from validating marketing content to settling debates among friends. Users can input any statement to check its accuracy and receive a clear score, making credibility a key performance indicator. Nottingham envisions a future in which AI tools like this serve as impartial editors, helping people navigate misinformation with confidence. The platform is currently browser-based, with mobile apps in development, and encourages users to try it themselves to see how it can improve communication and decision-making. Quotes: “Everyone is a publisher, but not everyone is an editor. That's where credibility tools come in.” “Credibility shouldn't be a buzzword; it should be a KPI for your business.” “It's not enough to be right—you have to persuade.” Resources: Connect with Dan Nottingham on LinkedIn Credibility starts with you

The next decade of mental health innovation won't be defined by who builds the best product, but by who anticipates the policy pathways that bring it to scale. In this episode, Kacie Kelly, Chief Innovation Officer at Meadows Mental Health Policy Institute, explores how behavioral health startups can bridge the gap between early traction and national scalability by viewing policy as a strategic growth tool rather than merely a compliance requirement. She reflects on a recent Washington, DC, event that united over 60 tech and policy leaders to tackle barriers to scaling tech-enabled, measurement-informed care. The discussion spanned topics such as AI in mental health, workforce trust in technology, and the importance of constructive dialogue between innovators and policymakers. Kacie highlights that policy determines who pays for what, when, and how, urging founders to build reimbursement strategies early and leverage programs like HeadsUp to navigate policy landscapes and accelerate growth through federal initiatives.

In this episode of Supply Chain Now, Scott Luton welcomes Alex Pillow, Senior Director of Partnerships & Acquisitions (Corporates & Government Unit) at Moody's and host of the podcast KYC Decoded, for a practical breakdown of how “know your customer” (KYC), third-party due diligence, and third-party risk management map directly onto modern supply chain realities. Alex demystifies integrated risk assessment, connects KYC practices to supplier onboarding and end-tier visibility, and shares where orchestration logic and high-quality data (master data management, beneficial ownership, and external risk signals) meaningfully cut time-to-decision.Alex explores today's most active threat patterns: organized fraud at scale, cyber supply-chain intrusions, and freight fraud, and how to translate visibility into action with clear mitigation pathways. Alex also spotlights lessons from investigative journalism (think massive crypto heists executed via vendor compromises), a “good team vs. bad team” mindset for program design, and why continuous improvement or the “infinite game” is the only sustainable posture for risk leaders.

Sean Garner, a marketing expert for local service businesses, helps companies dominate their industries through a combination of strategy, sales funnels, SEO, and StoryBrand messaging.

Garner uses a “Marketing Domination Framework” to build, fill, and optimize sales funnels, turning skilled professionals into recognized industry leaders while capturing and nurturing leads effectively. In this episode of Marketer of the Day, Garner advocates for service-based businesses to leverage video podcasts as a content strategy, repurposing them into blogs, social posts, and emails to maximize reach and authority. He emphasizes that strong marketing starts with the right words and messaging that address customer needs, rather than relying on logos or superficial branding. By highlighting the importance of systems like sales funnels and SEO, he shows how proper implementation can turn skilled professionals into recognized industry leaders. Garner stresses taking action, noting that knowledge alone is useless without execution, and invites businesses to work with his agency at seangarner.co for tailored, high-impact marketing support.

"A strong sales funnel is more than a tool—it's a framework that turns skilled professionals into recognized leaders in their industries while capturing and nurturing leads effectively."

Our information environment has become a social determinant of health. In this episode, Joshua Sharfstein, a public health leader and professor at Johns Hopkins, and Joanne Kenen, journalist in residence at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, discuss how the collapse of local journalism, the design of social media algorithms, and politicization have created an “information sickness” that undermines personal and public health. They explain that traditional reporting once filtered out false claims through rules and accountability, while today's engagement-driven platforms reward emotional misinformation that quickly becomes “sticky.” The guests explore the consequences of vaccine refusal, fractured families, and the urgent need for remedies, such as embedding misinformation experts in health agencies, utilizing trusted platforms, and fostering community trust. They emphasize that artificial intelligence will both fuel and fight misinformation, demanding institutional adaptation. Ultimately, they urge individuals to maintain an informed news diet and practice empathy across information divides, reminding listeners that public health must serve everyone, even those who disagree. Tune in to learn practical ways to counter health misinformation, from rapid pre-bunking to community partnerships and smarter use of AI!

The shift to outpatient surgery is transforming how care is delivered. In this episode, Dr. Adam Thaler, Medical Director at Summit Health, discusses leading a urology-focused ambulatory surgery center and the rapid growth of outpatient procedures.

In this episode I chat to Lou Furby, Specsavers' UK D&I lead, who shares how Specsavers built a workplace menopause support program from the ground up. We cover the creation of MenoTalk, the importance of inclusive, cross-functional involvement, the role of top-down sponsorship and allyship, practical strategies for creating a supportive workplace culture around menopause, and how to sustain momentum with education, language, and data. Packed with actionable tips for anyone aiming to start or grow a menopause-focused employee resource or wellbeing initiative. Key quotes “Don't try and do it all on your own. Get the right stakeholders involved. Have a steering group, a co-chair, and a sponsor.” “Pick off the low hanging fruit. Pick off the stuff that you can do and implement quickly.” “It's a war, not a battle.” (on sustaining momentum and not letting initiatives stall) “Education and information was absolutely key.” (on the foundation for successful engagement) “Language matters. Be direct and transparent about what menopause is.” (on avoiding euphemisms and building credibility) “We can't mandate everything in a joint venture, so we rely on leadership visibility and storytelling to drive engagement.” Practical takeaways for HR & wellbeing teams: Start with a steering group: bring cross-functional representation (HR/ER, facilities, IT, wellbeing/D&I) and appoint a co-chair to share the load. Secure an advocate sponsor: a trusted, visible leader in the business to champion the initiative. Listen first: let people's needs drive the program; avoid overloading participants with campaigns before trust is built. Use language that's clear and factual: don't shy away from the terminology of menopause and related symptoms. Connect with external expertise: partner with specialists to provide credible education and resources.  Implement quick wins: pick “low hanging fruit” that deliver tangible benefits.  Align with broader wellbeing and D&I goals: link the initiative to accreditation (Wellbeing of Women Workplace pledge) and overall staff welfare programs. Consider store-level realities: in retail, tailor adjustments to individual roles (e.g., door duty vs. back office) and support teams accordingly. Support managers with tools and training: give managers a framework for having compassionate, validating conversations. Provide holistic support: combine access to private care, wellbeing apps (Headspace), and flexible adjustments to support employees. Three actionable next steps you can take Create a cross-functional steering group and appoint a co-chair and a sponsor to lead a menopause initiative in your organization. Sign up for the Wellbeing of Women Workplace pledge and plan an introductory menopause education session with an external expert. Start a candid conversation with your HR/ER team about how to support line managers in having empathetic, validated conversations about menopause with their teams; aim to roll out basic manager training.   Resources: Connect with Lou over on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lou-furby-49290844/ For menopause training and awareness sessions: www.managingthemenopause.com   If you enjoy the podcast please help us grow by sharing this episode, or writing a review.

You can train six days a week and still not lose fat and it's not your fault.For decades, we've been told to “move more and eat less,” but that advice doesn't hold up anymore. Our food system has completely changed, and so has the way our metabolism responds to it. Ultra-processed foods are everywhere; cheap, convenient, and biologically addictive and they are undoing the work we put in at the gym. Once you understand that fat loss is driven by what you eat, not how hard you work out, you can finally start working with your body instead of against it.Stick around, this one might change how you think about fat loss forever.Episode Timeline: 00:00 – Episode Preview01:39 – Podcast Intro02:30 – The Global Study Explained04:10 – Why “Move More, Eat Less” Fails06:00 – The Body Rebalances Energy Use07:30 – Processed Foods: The Real Culprit09:50 – How Processed Foods Trick the Brain11:50 – “Healthy” Snacks That Sabotage Progress13:40 – What Processed Foods Do to Digestion15:30 – Metabolism Breakdown in Modern Diets18:00 – The Real Value of Exercise19:40 – Why Muscle Changes Everything22:10 – Fat Loss Isn't About Calorie Burn24:30 – 3 Pillars: Food, Movement, Recovery26:50 – When Training Less Helps More28:40 – Aligning Habits With Your Biology29:44 – Final Thoughts & Free ResourcesLinks & Resources:Connect with Ben on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bodysystemscoaching/Learn more about Ben's coaching program: www.bodysystems.comSubscribe to the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show on Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-smart-nutrition-made-simple-show-with-ben-brown/id1244912234 Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/4H8vUlwYvKcAXZOv84sFgT Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@bodysystemscoaching Book Free Nutrition Strategy Call - https://bodysystems.com/free-strategy-call/

Revolutionizing the Fourth Trimester - IYKYKA quiet revolution can start with tea, a newborn on a chest, and a doctor who sits on the edge of your bed and actually listens. That scene—simple, human, and overdue—is how Dr. Michelle Haggerty rebuilt postpartum care from the ground up after her own losses and years inside a system that treats the fourth trimester like an afterthought.We go deep on matrescence, the often-ignored transformation into motherhood that begins long before birth and reshapes identity, hormones, work, money, and relationships. Michelle shares how fetal cells can remain in a mother's body, why that matters for grief and belonging, and how narrative medicine—structured birth-story debriefs with both partners—can dissolve trauma before it hardens. Then we zoom out to the hard numbers: the U.S. leads developed nations in maternal mortality, 65 percent of deaths happen postpartum, and 85 percent are preventable. Mental health tops the list, while cardiovascular risks hit communities of color hardest. Ten-minute visits miss what home-based care can catch.You'll hear how Michelle left corporate medicine to build Fourth Trimester Doc, where physicians do home visits, answer texts, reduce ER trips, and coordinate lactation, mental health, and pediatric support. We explore direct primary care pediatrics, tiny patient panels, and a bold plan to make postpartum support an employer-paid benefit with onsite groups and well-child checks. Scaling without losing soul means facing the insurance maze, gathering outcomes data, and learning the art of marketing so families can actually find help.Threaded through it all is trust—faith in intuition, in the “baby” of a new business, and in the power of Ikigai, that sweet overlap of passion, skill, need, and income that turns work into energy. If you care about maternal health, mental health, or just better care that meets people where they are, this conversation will stay with you.

The future of mental health care lies in integrating self-care, personalization, and technology to meet people where they are. In this episode, Clayton Nicholas, Chief Commercial Officer at CredibleMind, discusses the urgent need to reimagine the intersection of mental and physical healthcare by focusing on prevention, accessibility, and personalization. He explains that the traditional, reactive, and clinician-limited model has left millions underserved and introduces the stepped care approach, where digital self-care tools form a foundational “step zero.” Clayton describes how digital front doors can simplify access, reduce stigma, and guide people toward the right level of support, helping to shorten waitlists and ease pressure on the system. He concludes by highlighting how data-driven insights and AI can personalize care, strengthen empathy and engagement, and enable earlier, more effective interventions at scale. Tune in and learn how digital innovation is reshaping behavioral health by bridging access gaps and empowering self-care from the ground up!

Everyone wants results, but few people are empowered with tools to build the habits that get them there.Kylie's story is one I think a lot of people will see themselves in. She tracked every calorie, followed every diet, nailed her cardio, and still found herself stuck in the same loop—losing weight, gaining it back, feeling guilty, starting over.In this conversation, we chat about what helped Kylie move past the yo-yo cycle of tracking, restricting, and starting over. We also unpacked the mindset shifts that allowed her to shed the guilt and make confident “adult” choices in everyday life and in the gym. Having the permission to live, enjoy the cookie, and know she was still moving forward is what finally set her free.If that's something you've been struggling to find, tune into this episode. It's a reminder that progress isn't about perfection, it's about learning to trust yourself again.Episode Timeline: 0:18 – Why Kylie reached out for coaching1:29 – Post-COVID struggles and weight gain2:13 – Tracking food and early habits5:46 – First impressions of the coaching program6:46 – Shifting from tracking to building tools10:12 – Viewing tracking as liberation, not control11:34 – Learning adult ownership and flexibility14:56 – Falling in love with the gym18:46 – 60 pounds lost and sustained for good21:48 – How her mindset and body transformed22:38 – How health changed her family dynamic25:57 – Shared values and partnership in health27:56 – What would've happened without coaching30:16 – Learning to live in the gray31:31 – Integration as a personal operating system32:15 – Why investing in yourself is non-negotiable34:39 – Closing gratitude and final reflectionsLinks & Resources:Connect with Ben on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bodysystemscoaching/Learn more about Ben's coaching program: www.bodysystems.comSubscribe to the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show on Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-smart-nutrition-made-simple-show-with-ben-brown/id1244912234 Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/4H8vUlwYvKcAXZOv84sFgT Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@bodysystemscoaching Book Free Nutrition Strategy Call - https://bodysystems.com/free-strategy-call/

Renowned Business Buyer Advocate and M&A expert John Martinka reveals the essential ingredients for building—and selling—a business that can flourish independently of its founder. Drawing on decades of experience and his book Exit with Style, Grace and More Money, John discusses the dangers of owner dependency, the value of strategic delegation, and the process of transforming overwhelmed owners into visionary leaders. Through vivid stories and actionable steps, he shows how creating robust management teams and sound systems not only increases your company's value but also prepares it for a seamless, rewarding exit. John dives deep into real-world challenges and misconceptions around selling a business, from red flags that scare off buyers to the critical role of motivation, relationships, and trust in getting deals done. Instead of quick fixes, he champions long-term planning and education—empowering entrepreneurs to build companies that are not just profitable, but sustainable and ready to thrive long after their departure. Whether you're years away from selling or want to future-proof your business now, John's advice ensures you're positioned for success when the time comes to exit with style. Quotes: “The biggest trap that reduces value or turns a buyer off is owner dependency... Buyers want a management team that can drive new initiatives and get things done the right way.”“If you want your business to be truly valuable, start building a team that can thrive without you.”“Don't expect the process to go smoothly. Selling your business is like a financial colonoscopy—buyers want to look everywhere.” Resources: Connect with John Martinka on LinkedIn Watch John Martinka's videos on YouTube Exit with Style, Grace & More Money®
