“Organizational culture doesn't come from words on the wall, but culture depends on what gets rewarded, what gets tolerated, and what gets quietly punished when nobody is watching the wall.” In this solo episode, Meg Rentschler explores why organizations often act against their stated values when under pressure. Meg defines culture through practices that are modeled and measured, offering coaches five diagnostic questions closely related to the Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership. She shares a client story, along with a “Say-Do Audit” tool to identify whether company values are genuinely lived or simply fiction. Join us to learn more!Show Highlights:A working definition of culture that makes senseSee the gap and close the gap. Five questions and how they match with the Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership:“What happened the last time someone on this team disagreed with a decision publicly?” (This aligns with “Enable others to ask questions.”)“What's something everyone on this team knows is true, but no one says aloud?” (This exposes the “Model the way” failure.)“Regarding the last person promoted here, what behavior got them promoted?” (This is a “Challenge the process” question in disguise.)“When was the last time this team missed a deadline or made a mistake? What happened next?” (This tests the “Encourage the heart” practice.)“If a brand new employee shadowed this team for one week, what would they conclude actually matters here?” (This is an “Inspire to shared vision” check.)Client examples from Meg about innovation vs. compliance“Your highest value in organizational culture work is not as a mural painter but as a mirror.”How to use the “Say-Do Audit” of an organization's stated valuesThe key is to let the team recognize and sit with the gap before moving to action.

Welcome back to a special encore presentation of Turn on the Lights! As we continue our transition series, our new host, Dr. Philip, is revisiting some of the most impactful conversations from the archives. For this episode, he selected a standout discussion with Dr. Michelle Schreiber and Brenna Rabel, exploring how quality measures are developed, adopted, and implemented across Medicare and Medicaid programs. Summary: 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.

Touchless patient monitoring is making it easier to track patient health without adding more burden to clinicians. In this episode, Nayan Patel, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Transformation and Digital Health at Neteera, discusses how contactless patient monitoring can bridge care gaps and alleviate nurse burnout. Drawing on his extensive background as a healthcare CIO, Nayan emphasizes that new technology must actively solve workflow bottlenecks rather than adding tasks to a clinician's plate. He explains how Neteera's FDA-cleared, camera-free radar technology continuously tracks vital signs like heart and respiratory rates directly through bedding and clothing. Ultimately, by seamlessly integrating these passive alerts into daily routines, health systems can predict patient deterioration days in advance and smoothly transition toward virtual care models.

Today's guest introduces us to the concept of capacity: the gap between the effort someone puts in and the impact they get out. You'll learn why capacity isn't a fixed container, like a gas tank or battery, but a nervous-system bandwidth that is completely trainable. You'll discover how a coach's own dysregulation bleeds into the coaching relationship through nervous system co-regulation, and why two clients can present with identical stated goals. At the same time, one is ready for strategy and the other needs nervous system regulation first, and how coaches can learn to read “the thing beneath the thing.” Join us for practical strategies, a “feel-think-do” framework, and the path to your free capacity report card self-assessment. Dr. Lizette Warner is a keynote speaker and leadership capacity expert who helps organizations solve the effort-to-impact disconnect so they can build cultures where people make a bigger impact with less effort, while increasing engagement and retention. With a PhD. in Biomedical Engineering, 20+ years of executive leadership experience in science and health technology, and certification as a Master Certified Coach through the ICF, Lizette sits at a rare intersection of scientific precision, executive credibility, and embodied transformation. Her Hashimoto's diagnosis, an autoimmune condition she now understands as her body's response to years of unregulated performance, was the turning point that reoriented everything she knew about achievement and performance. Today, she speaks at corporate conferences, leadership retreats, and executive events on topics including leadership under pressure, high-performance culture, decision-making, and workplace resilience.

What does it take to grow into leadership? Leadership can look impressive from the title, but the reality is often far more complex. It can mean making decisions without having all the insight, shouldering responsibility without certainty, holding competing stakeholder needs, and recognising when the path you once wanted is no longer the right one. In this conversation with Helen Brocklebank, Chief Executive of Walpole, the sector body for the UK's leading luxury brands, we explore leadership as an evolving apprenticeship rather than the end goal or title you finally achieve. Since becoming Chief Executive in 2017, Helen has led significant growth and transformation, strengthening Walpole's advocacy, sustainability leadership and industry influence. She spearheaded the British Luxury Sustainability Manifesto, and serves on the Board of the European Cultural and Creative Industries Alliance and the Duke of Edinburgh's Award Women in Business Committee. Helen shares openly how a long-held ambition to run her own business ultimately taught her that success on paper does not always mean alignment in practice. That experience became a pivotal moment in understanding her values, strengths and the kind of leadership role in which she could make her greatest contribution. Together, we explore why leadership starts with knowing yourself, why physical strength, creativity and cultural curiosity can support better decision-making, and why listening is the essential first step in communication, storytelling and stakeholder influence. A core thought that emerged from this conversation- every role, relationship and difficult experience can become part of your leadership apprenticeship if you are willing to notice what it is teaching you. What you will learn in this episode: How to recognise when career ambitions no longer align with your strengths, values or wellbeing Why self-leadership is the foundation for leading others effectively The role strength, energy and personal habits play in sustaining leadership performance How your learning can strengthen empathy, problem-solving and strategic thinking Storytelling is fundamental to leadership How listening helps leaders unlock challenging situations The role of candid, uncomfortable conversations  Why leadership is a behaviour, not a job title What is your current role teaching you as part of your 'leadership apprenticeship'?

In an AI-driven market, technology may be easier to replicate, but the right people remain a true competitive advantage. In this episode, Mike Silverstein, Managing Partner of Healthcare IT and Life Sciences at Direct Recruiters, discusses what healthcare companies often get wrong when building their teams. He explains why leaders should value grit over impressive résumés, how passive candidates can strengthen an organization, and why healthcare requires patience, resilience, and industry understanding. Mike also shares how beginning his recruiting career during the 2008 financial crisis helped him develop the relationships and determination needed to navigate future challenges. He emphasizes that lasting success comes from authenticity, meaningful networks, and consistently putting people first.

Pharma portfolios can create powerful opportunities, but without clear positioning, brands can end up competing with each other. In this episode, Lumanity's Jakub Kaczor, VP, Strategy Consulting, and Peter Smith, SVP, Strategy Consulting, discuss the complexities of portfolio positioning in the pharmaceutical industry. The guests explain that while a focused R&D strategy drives commercial growth and sustained innovation, it also creates a paradox where a company's own assets can end up competing against each other in the same disease area. To mitigate internal rivalry and maximize commercial potential, they advise companies to begin co-positioning early and follow a structured planning process, grounded in market reality. Ultimately, achieving portfolio success requires overcoming brand egos through a collaborative mindset, establishing clear governance under a dedicated portfolio owner, and designing strategies that anticipate the future competitive landscape.

He has a deep passion for and involvement in mission-driven companies and organizations that seek to promote social good and greater access for all.As a pioneer in health & wellness, he has co-developed a cutting-edge proprietary device, waveforce ONE, that utilizes frequency emission technology to temper and – in some cases – completely eliminate the symptoms of chronic Lyme disease and other debilitating ailments. This is a product Mr. Davis feels uniquely tethered to as the conception of the waveforce ONE stemmed from his own personal struggles with chronic Lyme disease having witnessed it upend the lives of his daughter and two grandsons. Beyond the overall hopelessness, the immense financial strain of sustaining the costly medications and treatments prompted Davis to seek out alternatives. Fortuitously, he connected with Stuart Gross who would introduce him to the groundbreaking frequency emission technology that would ultimately stave off the symptoms of his daughter and grandsons, as well as lay the foundation for the revolutionary and affordable waveforce ONE wearable device.RESOURCES:Connect with Stephen Davis:https://wellness.wearenikki.com/Episode shownotes: https://healthyawakening.co/2026/07/06/episode131/Connect with Susan: https://healthyawakening.co/Visit the website: healthyawakening.co/podcastFind listening links here: https://healthyawakening.co/linksP.S.

What to listen for:“We are very good at selectively breeding, obviously to drive change in the shape, but not necessarily to drive performance.”Robin and Stacy continue their conversation with Dr. Lindsay Waldrop, a Chapman University fluid dynamicist who secured Navy funding to build the world's largest collection of micro-CT-scanned domestic dog skulls.Dr. Waldrop discusses why skull morphology offers no reliable prediction of scent detection performance. Breed shape, muzzle length, turbinate density… she says that none of it predicts which dogs will find the tin.She cites a study that scanned roughly 125 museum skulls, landmarked them geometrically, and mapped the variation against breeds with historically scent-focused versus bite-work roles.The answer was flat. No morphological feature sorted reliably by task. A Labrador has approximately the same mechanical bite leverage as a Malinois, yet nobody uses Labradors as patrol dogs, because that's behavior and genetics, not skull shape.And the pug? In a separate Nathan Hall study, the pug outperformed German shepherds on a basic odor detection task. The greyhounds couldn't be bothered to participate.Bloodhound ears sit in the same category. It's a story told often enough to feel true, but never actually tested. From a fluid dynamics standpoint, Stacy says she'd be shocked if those ear flaps were routing scent toward the nose in any meaningful way.The same applies to the claim (circulating on social media) that early scent initiation protocols increase the number of olfactory receptors in developing puppies. Specific, testable, evidence-free.It's important to distinguish science-based reasoning versus evidence-based claims. Dr. Waldrop's flow visualization work is science-based, informed by expertise, probably accurate, not publishable as proof. But claiming a puppy protocol rewires the olfactory system is an evidence-based claim with almost no data behind it. Key Topics:When the Dog Is Right and the Handler Is Wrong (01:36)The Pug That Beat the German Shepherd (12:54)What Skull Shape Actually Tells Us About Scent Work (14:02)A Navy-Funded Micro-CT Scan of 125 Dog Skulls (15:37)The Bloodhound Ear Story No One Has Tested (23:08)Science-Based vs. Evidence-Based: Why the Difference Matters (30:01)The Essential Oil Claim That Doesn't Hold Up to Physics (36:50)Can Nose Work Dogs Learn to Sniff Bigger?

In this episode of Everyday Epigenetics: Raw. Real. Relatable., Susan Robbins sits down with Alyssa Blue, Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner, former aerospace engineer, and co-founder of Align Mat, for a powerful conversation about nervous system regulation, chronic stress, resilience, and what it truly means to create a foundation for healing.In a world that constantly pushes us to do more, optimize more, and achieve more, many people are finding themselves exhausted, anxious, inflamed, and disconnected from their bodies. Susan and Alyssa explore why so many individuals are stuck in cycles of burnout despite doing all the "right" things, and how nervous system dysregulation may be the missing piece. They discuss the impact of chronic stress, biohacking overload, sleep disruption, information fatigue, environmental stressors, and the cultural pressure to always be productive.Together, they challenge the idea that healing comes from adding more supplements, protocols, or wellness trends. Instead, they highlight the importance of creating safety within the body, honoring biological rhythms, building resilience, and learning to trust the body's innate ability to heal. This conversation is filled with practical insights, empowering perspectives, and reminders that true wellness begins when we stop fighting our bodies and start working with them.In this episode:Why nervous system regulation is foundational for healing and recoveryThe connection between chronic stress, anxiety, sleep issues, and weight loss resistanceHow biohacking and wellness optimization can sometimes create more stress than healthWhy your body needs to feel safe before it can heal, recover, and thriveThe impact of technology, social media, and information overload on the nervous systemHow beliefs, mindset, and emotional patterns influence physical health outcomesThe importance of honoring circadian rhythms and listening to your body's signalsWhy personalized wellness matters more than following generic health adviceThe role of resilience, recovery, and creating balance in a high-stress worldPractical ways to support your nervous system and reconnect with your body's natural intelligenceIf you've been doing all the things but still feel exhausted, anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on healing that goes far beyond supplements and protocols. Sometimes the next step forward isn't doing more, it's creating enough space for your body to do what it was designed to do.Learn more about Alyssa Blue:Alyssa is a non practicing Aerospace engineer that found the human body more fascinating than rockets. After suffering a health crisis in her early 20's she went on a decade long journey learning how to heal herself. Today as an FDNP, her research background shines, taking a deep dive to investigate her clients bio-individuality and walking with them on a path back to balance. Out of a necessity to help more people than their 1-2-1 practice would allow, Alyssa and her partner Mike embarked on a 2.5 year R&D journey to co-create ALIGN.

Welcome back to a special encore presentation of Turn on the Lights! As we continue our transition series, our new host, Dr. Philip, has hand-selected one of our most-listened-to and impactful conversations from the archives to highlight once again. Dr. Philip introduces this essential dialogue with Professor Charles Vincent, reflecting on why its core message, moving past basic compliance toward true, real-time healthcare improvement, is so vital to where the podcast is headed next. Summary: Blame rarely makes care safer, but understanding the system usually does. In this episode, Professor Charles Vincent, a clinical psychologist and leading patient safety researcher, explains how harm often emerges from a chain of small breakdowns, not from a single “bad” decision, and why the better question is “what in the system allowed this to happen?” He unpacks how the fixation on individual error can miss deeper contributors, such as fatigue, poor supervision, weak monitoring, clunky equipment design, noise, distraction, and communication that is not truly heard. You will hear why disrespectful behavior and hierarchy are safety risks, how simple routines like surgical safety checklists can change whether people speak up, and why healthcare struggles to name the trade-off between pushing volume and protecting safety. Tune in and learn how a systems lens, respectful teamwork, and real trade-offs can make care safer. About Prof. Charles Vincent: Charles Vincent is a Professor of Psychology at the University of Oxford and a longtime researcher focused on patient safety across a wide range of healthcare settings. He studies how and why errors and patient harm happen, what actually works to improve safety, and how safety events affect patients, families, and healthcare staff. More recently, his work has zeroed in on how risk is managed when teams are under pressure, where small breakdowns can quickly compound in complex systems. Before Oxford, he spent over a decade at Imperial College London as Professor of Clinical Safety Research and later served as Emeritus Professor. His academic background spans psychology and clinical psychology, including a PhD in Psychology, which shapes his practical, systems-based approach to safety and risk management. Things You'll Learn: Most serious harm in healthcare results from interconnected system conditions, such as missed monitoring, delays, and weak supervision, rather than a single individual error. A focus on blame fosters defensiveness and inhibits organizational learning, whereas a systems perspective examines factors such as fatigue, workflow, tools, environment, and teamwork that shape human performance. Disrespect and rigid hierarchy pose safety hazards by suppressing speaking up, whereas high-performing teams normalize open communication across roles. Safety routines, including surgical checklists, create social permission to voice concerns, but when senior clinicians dismiss them, psychological safety deteriorates. The tension between productivity and safety is often unacknowledged in healthcare, even though increasing volume and evolving care complexity, such as expanded home-based care, can heighten systemic risk.

This week, Jake and Bob conclude their series on confession with Fr. John Horn and explore the root system behind two deadly sins: sloth (acedia) and lust. Through personal examples, they uncover the deeper attitudes, fears, and wounds that drive these struggles and keep us from intimacy with God. They also discuss how self- reliance, discouragement, and isolation can distort our desires and lead us away from the freedom God offers us through the Sacrament of Reconciliation.    Key Points: Virtue grows when our desires are reordered toward God through love rather than fear. Sloth, or acedia, is often misunderstood as just laziness. It can also manifest as overactivity, restlessness, and self-reliance. Discouragement is frequently rooted in the belief that we must transform ourselves without God's help. The remedy for acedia begins with surrendering control and accepting poverty of spirit. Lust reflects a deeper attempt to satisfy desires apart from God. Shame, hopelessness, and a lack of purpose often lie beneath struggles with lust. Confession becomes more fruitful when we bring our underlying attitudes and beliefs rather than only our behaviors. The Sacrament of Reconciliation restores communion with God, ourselves, the Church, and others. Freedom grows as we learn to receive the Father's delight and stop holding our sins and weaknesses against ourselves.   Resources: Institute for Priestly Formation Confession Fourfold  Chapters: 00:00 Introduction 02:26 The Goal is Not the Removal of Sin 10:57 What is Sloth (Acedia)? 18:40 Personal Examples of Acedia 27:19 Emotion is Not A Sin 38:15 What is Lust? 44:14 A Lack of Hope 65:45 Resources   Connect with Restore the Glory:  Instagram: @restoretheglorypodcast  Twitter: @RestoreGloryPod Facebook: Restore the Glory Podcast   Never miss out on an episode by hitting the subscribe button right now!

How Horizontal Gene Transfer, Ancient Viruses, and Shamanic Practice Reveal the Porous, Shape-Shifting Truth of Your Body"The idea of a singular, static 'Self' is a biological lie."That's not science fiction.That's microbiology.Most people think their identity is a fixed, genetic blueprint. It's not. You are a fluid, dynamic ecosystem—an ongoing negotiation between ancient bacteria, viral fragments, and a microbial cloud that extends far beyond your skin.In this episode of the Boundless Body Podcast, Dr. Brian Tierney sits down with Simon van der Els—molecular microbiologist and shamanic practitioner—to shatter the myth of the isolated self. They reveal how mobile genetic elements don't just drive evolution; they are the biological blueprint for how culture, ideology, and personal identity can be decoded, disrupted, and renewed.⚡ What You'll Learn (And Unlearn)✅ Why your genome isn't a “consensus sequence” but a chaotic cloud of mobile elements✅ The evolutionary orgy that created complex life—and why it's still happening inside you✅ How horizontal gene transfer destroys the concept of a static species✅ Why an “initiatory illness” (existential depression) is often the price of entry into deeper knowing✅ The connection between memeplexes, rigid ideology, and the scaffolding of your embryonic self✅ Why “meta flexibility” is the only survival strategy for a disrupted biosphere✅ How shamanic practice decodes cultural rigidity just as science decodes genetic rigidity

Understanding the distinction between change and transition is one of the most powerful things a coach can realize. Drawing from a milestone moment in her own life (her husband's retirement), Meg shares how transition is reshaping the way she sees her work, her coaching community, and the urgency of showing up fully right now. Meg walks coaches through a practical framework for helping clients navigate transition, from honoring the ending to trusting the “neutral zone” to anchoring in strengths and values. She also addresses one of the most common and quietly damaging ways coaches stall their own business transitions: hiding from the money conversation and underpricing their services. This episode weaves the person and professional into a single message: Transition is not the obstacle; transition is the invitation to be curious.
