Guest Dr. Tara Bishop has led the Perry Central Community Schools as superintendent for six years, but she's been part of the school community her whole life. Tara expands innovative career programs and grant-funded community services while cultivating a collaborative culture that supports teachers and administrators as the heart of every school.   As a former teacher turned speaker and happiness coach, Kim Strobel helps schools, businesses, and organizations prioritize happiness and well-being so they can overcome fears, discover joy, activate limitless potential, and boldly pursue their dreams. She is the author of Teach Happy. Summary Dr. Bishop describes Perry Central Community Schools as deliberately rethinking what education should prepare students to do. Rather than treating college as the only pathway to success, Perry Central gives every student access to career and technical education, internships, project-based learning, and opportunities to develop skills such as critical thinking, problem-solving, collaboration, adaptability, and communication. Students choose pathways but can change direction, while internships and capstone experiences are tailored to their interests and aspirations. One striking example is a Habitat for Humanity project in which engineering students design a house, construction students build it, and the completed home goes to a local family—giving students authentic experience, technical knowledge, empathy, and a sense of purpose. Dr. Bishop acknowledges that innovation exists within significant constraints: standardized testing, traditional college expectations, limited resources, and teachers' lack of time for collaboration. She also emphasizes that innovative learning cannot replace foundational knowledge; students need something to draw upon when solving problems. Ultimately, she argues for an educational system that honors individual strengths, connects learning to meaningful purposes, and gives teachers the support and freedom to make that possible. The Essential Point Dr. Bishop's essential point is that schools should stop defining success by a single pathway and instead help each student discover how their particular strengths and interests can contribute meaningfully to the world. That requires both strong foundational knowledge and authentic opportunities to apply it.

In their groundbreaking 1976 book, “How to Control Your Drinking,” William R. Miller and Ricardo F. Muñoz offered a guide for moderate alcohol use. Back then about two-thirds of American adults drank, and now about half do. As Americans drink less and question whether any amount of alcohol is healthy, Miller and Muñoz are out with a new book called “Rethinking Drinking,” to help us figure out what role, if any, drinking should have in our lives. Guests: William R. Miller, American clinical psychologist, an emeritus distinguished professor of psychology and psychiatry at the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque; co-author of “How to Control Your Drinking” (1976) and “Rethinking Drinking” (2026)  Ricardo F. Muñoz, Distinguished Professor of Clinical Psychology, Emeritus, Palo Alto University; Professor of Psychology, Emeritus, University of California, San Francisco, School of Medicine; co-author of “How to Control Your Drinking” (1976) and “Rethinking Drinking” (2026) Learn more about your ad choices.

Let's talk about your career. Because for a lot of people right now, work feels shaky. Maybe you've been laid off, applied for dozens of jobs with no response, or you're quietly wondering whether your current career path still makes sense. The rules have changed. AI is reshaping jobs. Hiring technology is filtering candidates before a human ever sees them. And the traditional corporate ladder feels more and more, totally and utterly disconnected from reality. So, how do you stay grounded through the uncertainty? And how do you build a career that can evolve with you? My special guest today is Mike Peditto and he's simplifying how to rethink your job search + career path.   Here's the truth. None of us knows exactly what the job market will look like next. But we can get smarter about how we navigate it. You'll learn why mass-applying isn't working, what actually helps you get noticed in an overcrowded job market, and how to remain in demand as work continues to change. Let's simplify it.

Episode 158: This week, Kyle Van Pelt talks with Michael Batnick, Managing Partner at Ritholtz Wealth Management. Michael began his career in sales at a life insurance company. Today, he focuses on helping clients navigate the challenges of long-term investing and achieve their financial goals.  Michael talks with Kyle about how AI is disrupting the wealth management industry. He discusses the realities of rising technology spend, the limits of AI-driven efficiency in human relationships, and how firms can use AI to improve advisor training. Michael also shares the concept behind Exhibit A—Ritholtz's custom-branded visual storytelling and charting software platform—and the importance of building intuitive technology that genuinely makes people's lives easier.  In this episode: (00:00) - Intro (02:26) - Navigating AI hype vs. operational realities  (04:24) - Michael's thoughts on technology spending (07:01) - Why AI won't systematically double an advisor's client capacity (11:21) - How AI could transform training for young advisors  (15:57) - Private equity and the changing advisor landscape  (19:24) - The debate between cash flow and enterprise value  (23:09) - The concept behind Exhibit A (25:52) - Are RIAs becoming wirehouses in disguise?  (28:32) - Why large RIAs struggle to reach the public markets  (31:19) - Michael's outlook for the wealth management industry  (32:38) - The future of multi-custodial RIAs  (35:23) - Michael's Milemarker Minute Key Takeaways Don't confuse efficiency with capacity. AI can automate preparation, documentation, and follow-up, but human capacity for real, meaningful conversations has a ceiling regardless of how much prep work gets automated. Rethink how you train the next generation of advisors. Build a training engine, not just a productivity tool. If AI tools can simulate practice scenarios and give real-time coaching feedback, use them to compress the learning curve for junior talent instead of burning your best chances on people who might not be ready yet.  Question industry narratives before adopting them. Just because a structure worked for someone else doesn't mean it's automatically right for your business. Figure out what you actually need.  Make technology so intuitive that clients barely notice it. When software is genuinely easy to use, adoption grows, support needs drop, and businesses can scale more sustainably.  Quotes "There's never been more excitement and also more confusion about the future of where we're going." ~ Michael Batnick  "I think a lot of people are really excited about the promise of AI and what it's going to do to change our industry, our jobs, our margins, and the way that we communicate with clients. But I don't think we know what that looks like, which is fine, totally fine and normal." ~ Michael Batnick "Dealing with clients is exhausting, mentally and emotionally. It takes a lot out of you." ~ Michael Batnick Links  Michael Batnick on LinkedIn Ritholtz Wealth Management Future Proof Matt Cerminaro Exhibit A For Advice Ian Wenik Creative Planning Altruist Jason Wenk Powerhouse by James Miller Connect with our hosts Milemarker.co Kyle on LinkedIn Jud on LinkedIn Subscribe and stay in touch Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube Produce game-changing content with Turncast Turncast helps your company grow by producing top-quality content and fostering transformative conversations.

This week on The Audit Podcast, Tim Buckley, founder of Beyond the Lines, joins the show to interview Trent Russell, founder of Green Skies Analytics, about how AI and analytics can fundamentally change the way internal audit teams operate. Trent explains why audit leaders need to move beyond isolated AI use cases and think about how technology can reshape the entire audit operating model. He breaks down why teams need an AI and analytics methodology, how AI can improve planning and reporting, and why analytics should be focused on finding meaningful insights rather than simply increasing efficiency. Trent also shares real-world examples of teams using AI agents and orchestration to automate large portions of audit planning, explains how AI can help identify risks auditors may otherwise miss, and discusses the growing importance of human judgment and critical thinking as more audit work becomes automated. He also offers practical advice for audit leaders looking to overcome management resistance and start making meaningful changes today. 05:03 Why AI and Analytics Matter for Audit Leaders 06:18 Why You Need to Rethink the Audit Operating Model 08:21 Isolated AI Use Cases vs. Real Transformation 11:17 Where AI and Analytics Are Overhyped and Underused 16:27 How AI Can Change Audit Planning 19:30 Using AI and Analytics to Improve Audit Quality 23:13 How AI Can Transform Audit Reporting 26:01 Why Auditors Need to Protect Judgment and Critical Thinking 34:47 Governance and the Human-in-the-Loop 43:50 What Audit Leaders Can Change in the Next 30 Days Be sure to connect with Trent Russell on LinkedIn and check out Green Skies Analytics for more resources on audit analytics and AI.

At Black Hat USA 2026 in Las Vegas, Daniel Bardenstein, CEO and co-founder of Manifest Cyber, starts with a gap his team measured in a survey of security leaders and practitioners. Leadership described one version of what is happening with AI inside the enterprise. The people doing the hands-on work described another. Adoption keeps moving, and security teams are working to catch up. So what is the real risk in AI security? Bardenstein puts less weight on non-determinism than most and more on ordinary poor software security, because AI is software. He walks through the OpenAI and Hugging Face incident, where models got out of sandboxes because the sandboxing was weak and the guardrails were missing. When Hugging Face went to use its own AI to defend and run forensics, the guardrails read the request as cyber activity and declined. That fallback to an open weight model points to why he expects open weight adoption to accelerate. With frontier models, the provider sets the system prompt and treats it as intellectual property, so development teams inherit whatever was decided upstream. Open weight leaves more room to control the system prompt, the training data, and how the model gets deployed. What does it mean to say AI has its own supply chain? Unless an organization controls how training data is sourced, housed, labeled, tagged, and modified, it is relying on something someone else built. Public datasets carry whatever is inside them, including personal and health data, licensing exposure, and material no one examined until models were trained and deployed. Models hosted on public hubs sit in the same category. Two asks come up in most CISO conversations with Manifest Cyber. Visibility is one, and few organizations have an AI inventory covering which models run where, inside which applications, and which agents teams have stood up on their own. Third party risk is the other, since AI is getting built into vendor products whether a buyer asks for it or not. That turns model provenance into a trust question about the vendor. Bardenstein started Manifest Cyber four years ago after responding to Log4Shell from the Pentagon, where the question was where one affected piece of code was running across everything the organization had built and bought. Years later, he finds few security leaders who could answer that question quickly about a poisoned model or dataset. His advice for CISOs is to know what is inside what the organization builds and buys, with particular attention to the parts it does not build. This is a Brand Spotlight. A Brand Spotlight is a ~15 minute conversation designed to explore the guest, their company, and what makes their approach unique.

Your TikTok Shop video just went viral. Congratulations. But now you're facing a stockout in four days, and your Amazon listing is right behind it. Neil Twa dives into why traditional inventory forecasting methods aren't cutting it anymore. Most operators still rely on outdated techniques, pulling the last 30 or 60 days of sales data, adding a buffer, and calling it a day. That approach is a recipe for disaster in today's multi-channel world. Neil shares a real-world example from a home goods brand making $30,000 to $50,000 a month on Amazon, but struggling to keep up with TikTok's demand spikes. He outlines three actionable moves to safeguard your inventory, whether you're just testing TikTok Shop or operating at scale. Get ready to rethink your strategy and protect your margins.

In Canada, women make up roughly two thirds of the public relations profession. They are the majority in the classrooms, the majority in the entry level roles, and the majority climbing through the middle ranks. And then somewhere around the senior level, the numbers flip. The leadership tables in PR firms and communications departments across the country look nothing like the profession they are supposed to represent. This is not a new observation. The data has been there for years.Here's what's new. Two researchers decided to stop describing the problem and start asking a harder question. Not how do we get more women to the table? But why does the table keep failing the women who get there. Because what the data also shows, and what too many PR women know personally, is that the exit is often quiet and deliberate. Not a firing. Not a failure. A decision. A moment where a woman who is absolutely capable of leading looks at what it costs and says this is not worth it. This episode is about what is driving that decision, and what it is going to take to change it.Listen For4:15 Why Do Women Hold Fewer Than 30% of Senior PR Leadership Roles?7:11 What Does It Mean to Rethink the Leadership Table?9:15 How Can PR Organizations Create Sustainable Leadership Careers?15:06 What Can Women and Men Do to Change PR Leadership?17:03 Why Won't Teaching Women to Play Golf Solve Workplace Exclusion? Guests: Amy ThurlowWebsite | LinkedInColleen Killingsworth LinkedIn Book Rethinking the Table on Amazon DougSubstack | Website | LinkedInWatch this episode on YouTube Are you a brand with a podcast that needs support?

Episode 189: Travis Hahler & his book, Rethink Resistance: Embracing Neuroscience to Lead Transformational ChangeABOUT TRAVISTravis transforms how Fortune 500 companies navigate change by revealing a startling truth: Resistance isn't rebellion—it's biology. As Senior Director of Global Strategy and Transformation at Salesforce, and Founder of The Neurological Nomad, Travis brings an unprecedented fusion of neuroscience and business acumen to organizational transformation. His unique journey conducting EEG research in Denmark, studying neuropsychology at Harvard, earning an MBA, and leading change at Google, Salesforce, and others, makes him a unique transformation expert who can explain why your amygdala sabotages your strategic plan and why you can blame everything on your basil ganglia. Over fifteen years, Travis has guided more than one hundred companies through successful transformations, earning him the nickname Resistance Fortune Teller for his uncanny ability to predict where change efforts will fail. His signature keynote, The Neuroscience of Change, has reached over 25,000 leaders across 150 global events, consistently delivering that aha moment when executives finally understand why 70 percent of transformations fail to achieve their goals. CONVERSATION HIGHLIGHTS• Travis introduces his background blending neuropsychology, neuroscience, and business transformation.• The misconception that resistance is rebellion and how to reframe it as a natural protective response.• Six neurological barriers affecting change: basal ganglia routines, overloading prefrontal cortex, exclusion pain, ambiguity, threat responses, and loss.• Practical leadership strategies aligned with brain science to navigate each barrier.• The importance of emotional regulation and empathy in parenting and leadership inspired by neuroscience.• How neuroscience understanding helps to normalize resistance, reducing ego threats for leaders.• The evolution of Travis's work from consulting to public speaking and authoring the book "Rethink Resistance."• The role of language, poised by Brené Brown's insights, in shaping emotional experiences and understanding.• The future focus on applying neuroscience to AI transformations, emphasizing mindset shifts over tools.The MAIN QUESTION for you that comes out of my conversation with Travis is, To avoid the adverse and unfortunate effects of impulsive emotion, how much do you seek to understand the science of your mind when it comes to your leadership?

Last year, for the first time in New Zealand, MedSafe gave approval to prescribe psilocybin - the hallucinogenic compound found in magic mushrooms. The approval was specific to one psychiatrist and gave them the authority to prescribe and administer psilocybin to any patient they have assessed and diagnosed with treatment-resistant depression. According to Health NZ there is work underway to make it easier for more healthcare practitioners to take on this work. This weekend the 'Auckland Mushroom Festival' is taking place along Karangahape Road, and our next guest will be speaking at the event. University of Auckland doctoral student Sam Lasham researches prohibited drug use and policy, harm reduction, and psychedelics. He chats to Jesse.

This episode is for you.Today we're looking at imposter syndrome, not as a confidence problem, but as an identity problem. Your mind doesn't rise to meet the evidence in front of it — it filters that evidence through who it already believes you are. More proof doesn't fix that. Familiarity does. We'll walk through why this happens, what Neville Goddard and Joel Goldsmith each taught about it from two different angles, what neuroscience says about how your brain predicts rather than perceives, and one quiet nightly practice you can start tonight to close the gap between your results and your self-concept.✦ The real story behind why evidence alone never feels like enough ✦ How assumption filters what you're able to accept as true about yourself ✦ Why the "small self" Joel Goldsmith described keeps needing to prove itself ✦ What predictive processing research reveals about the imposter feeling ✦ A specific, doable nighttime revision practice — with the exact words to useIf this episode landed for you, start with The Awareness Reset — a free companion workbook to help you notice your own patterns as they happen: [link]For a structured, day-by-day path through this exact work, 30 Days to a New Self Concept walks you through closing the gap between what you've already achieved and how you actually see yourself: payhip.com/b/QIkdwExplore the full ReThink store: payhip.com/ReThinkPodcast/collection/all Explore The Conscious Creator store: payhip.com/TheConsciousCreator Visit the website: rethinkpodcast1.comSubscribe to the newsletter for a new practice each week, and come find us here on YouTube every time we publish: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClaZTXHmieB0gXqscetNPtQThis is ReThink.

What if the biggest risk to your organization isn't the device that gets lost, but the data that lives on it? Ron Eddings sits down with Jared Shepard, Founder and CEO of Hypori, whose path ran from homeless high school dropout to Army infantry to building a company that rethinks mobile security from the ground up. Jared makes the case for something more radical than most vendors will admit: stop defending the edge device entirely, and make sure sensitive data never lands there in the first place. He and Ron cover MDM and MAM's blind spots, executive protection, and the shadow AI habits quietly becoming every security leader's next headache.

Rethinking Leadership in Sport & Business: How Ed Smith Uses Humanities & AI to Shape Future Leaders   This week's podcast special guest is Ed Smith – former professional cricketer, author, broadcaster, ex-Chief Selector for England Cricket (2018–2021), President of Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC), and Director of the Institute for Sport and Humanites (ISH). From opening the batting for Kent as a teenager to helping England win the Cricket World Cup and now shaping leaders through education and AI, Ed's career spans elite performance, leadership, and deep thinking about what sport can teach us about life. He's uniquely placed at the intersection of high-performance sport, humanities, and emerging technologies like AI. In this conversation, Ed shares how his experiences in professional cricket, writing, and academic leadership have shaped his philosophy on amateur vs professional mindsets, balance vs obsession, and how education and AI can help us rethink leadership in both sport and business.   What You'll Discover: Ed's unexpected leap into professional cricket: How he went from Kent U19s to opening the batting in the County Championship almost overnight – and why loving the game and being a good learner matters more than being "ahead" when you're young. Amateur vs professional mindset – and why we need both: The core ideas from his book What Sport Tells Us About Life – why "amateur" shouldn't mean sloppy, how to protect the joy that got you into sport in the first place, and how to carry that into a professional environment. The real meaning of balance in high performance: Why Ed's best seasons (1997 and 2003) came when he was stretched off the field – studying for university exams and writing a book – and what this teaches athletes and leaders about not sacrificing everything for performance. Using your 'extra' time as an athlete wisely: Ed's candid view that many professional athletes have more time than they think – and how using that time for education, reflection, or a second discipline can actually improve on-field performance. The Institute for Sport and Humanities (ISH) and leadership development: How Ed founded ISH while serving as England's Chief Selector, the type of leaders they're developing (from players like Matt Fisher and Heather Knight to professionals across sports), and why critical thinking, humanities, and AI now sit at the heart of modern leadership. Flow state, form, and the 'absence of irrelevant thought': Ed's practical take on flow – how to focus on enjoying concentration rather than runs or results, how to handle bad form, and why being fully present (and not thinking about anything else) is a powerful competitive advantage. Lessons for business leaders from elite sport: How ideas like balance, deep focus, love of the work, and intelligent use of technology (including AI) translate directly from the dressing room to the boardroom – and what leaders in any industry can borrow from Ed's playbook.   Connect with Ed here:   Website: https://www.edsmithwriter.com/ ISH Website: https://www.sportshumanities.org/

AI is changing more than the speed of accounting work. It is changing what firms can sell and how clients measure value.Shawn Yeager, founder of Upshift, joins Tom Wadelton and Adam Hale to discuss how AI is reshaping pricing and service design across professional services. After three decades commercializing emerging technology, including work on Microsoft's first browser team, Shawn now helps firms turn AI from an internal efficiency project into a commercial strategy.Shawn explains why the billable hour as a unit of value is changing, how firms can separate routine work from judgment and trust, and why advisory should be packaged around specific outcomes rather than broad labels. He also shares a four-quadrant approach for reviewing service lines, a product-market fit process for testing new offers, and why firms should build their context and workflows instead of chasing every new AI tool.Accounting firm owners concerned about margin compression, commoditization, or where to invest next will find practical direction in this episode.

Think all energy-related companies are driven by the same market forces? It's time to rethink that view. We interviewed Brian Watson of Invesco's SteelPath team about the often-overlooked world of midstream energy infrastructure — the systems that help move, store, process, and export the oil and gas people rely on every day. We discussed why these companies may be less tied to oil prices than many investors assume, how rising demand for liquefied natural gas and reliable power is shaping the long-term opportunity, and how midstream businesses can offer potential income, real asset exposure, and a differentiated role in diversified portfolios.

In the Netherlands, water has always been both a threat and a triumph. A quarter of the country lies below sea level, and for centuries the Dutch have engineered their way to safety. It's a place not unlike New Orleans: a delta shaped by risk, resilience, and the belief that with enough ingenuity, water can be controlled. But as sea levels rise, that centuries-old confidence is beginning to crack.In this episode of Sea Change, reporter Jonathan Groubert takes us to the Netherlands to explore a relationship in turmoil. From floating farms to visions of entire cities on water, the Dutch are beginning to rethink everything they thought they knew. The question is no longer how to win the war against water—but whether it's time to learn how to live with it.---This episode was hosted by Executive Producer Carlyle Calhoun and Amsterdam-based journalist Jonathan Groubert.

Send Audrey a Text to get your question answered on the showLevamisole has become one of the most talked-about adjunct therapies for Equine Protozoal Myeloencephalitis (EPM), but should horse owners and practitioners be asking more questions? In this episode, Audrey McLaughlin, RN, MSN, Board-Certified Traditional Naturopath and equine nutrition practitioner, explores how working in both human and equine health reveals important crossover insights. We discuss why some veterinarians use levamisole for EPM, how it may influence the immune system, the recent European withdrawal of human levamisole products following concerns about inflammatory white matter disease, and what that does—and does not—mean for horses. You'll also learn about Th1 immunity, medicinal herbs like astragalus and andrographis, beta-glucans, and why optimizing nutrition and immune resilience may be just as important as immune stimulation. This episode is a balanced, evidence-informed discussion designed to help horse owners and equine professionals ask better questions about EPM treatment—not to replace veterinary care.

台灣四面環海，玩水很方便，但同時，對上萬噸的海洋廢棄物來說，擠上沙灘也很方便。我跟著RE-THINK淨灘已經是好幾年前的事了，我很好奇，難道淨灘不是最亡羊補牢的方式嗎？我花一個假日在海灘上撿了幾十公斤的垃圾，真的能幫助台灣的海洋嗎？另外，今年台灣許多NGO遇上「募款平台Global Giving的強硬更名」事件，RE-THINK也在其中。我問之揚，當一個NGO遇到價值觀和捐款的兩難，身為組織的負責人，他該怎麼做？當他帶著RE-THINK去到國際環保峰會上，有遇到中國的打壓嗎？這集不只聊環保，更聊台灣如何運用NGO的靈活，爭取更多國際曝光，發揮我們既環保又愛賺錢的台灣特色。 ＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝ 【2026 RE-THINK 環島淨灘 撿回台灣】 台灣海岸線，曾上演一代又一代人的生活與冒險故事。 但在這片土地長大的我們，卻很少真正認識這片海洋。 今年夏天跟著 RE-THINK，從北海岸一路向南，前進 8 處髒海灘。 撿起不屬於台灣海岸線的垃圾，也把海島子民和海洋的連結，一點一點撿回來。 7/11 - 8/22 全台環島中，加入 RE-THINK 官方 LINE 報名：https://rethinktw.cc/fwNSY *本集為合作訪問 -- Hosting provided by SoundOn

The high-heel flip flop trend, Chanel's demi-shoes and Louboutin's viral “Banana Peel” heels means that our feet and nails are commanding a LOT of attention these days. And we know that the whole natural-nail manicure movement is gaining steam — what if our natural toenails could transform to bright, white and polish-free too? In pursuit of our smoothest feet and brightest toenails yet, this week we sat down with Marcela Correa, known as the “Foot Whisperer” of Manhattan. Marcela is a medical pedicurist with more than 20 years of experience. From her father's podiatry clinic in Uruguay to being the founder of MediPedi NYC on Park Avenue, she's built a following of celebrity and athlete clients around her signature waterless, medical pedicure.

There's a reservoir of untapped potential inside you right now. The only question is whether you'll reach it. Colin O'Brady is the first person in history to cross Antarctica solo, completely unsupported and unaided, covering nearly 1,000 miles alone in 54 days while pulling a 375-pound sled through temperatures reaching minus 80 degrees wind chill. He's also a world record holder for the Explorers Grand Slam, having completed all Seven Summits and expeditions to both poles in 139 consecutive days -- a project he called The Impossible First. Before any of that, he was a 22-year-old backpacker in Thailand with 25% of his body severely burned, told by doctors he might never walk normally again. What pulled him through was a single visualization exercise, a mother who refused to let him see his own darkness, and a goal set from a hospital bed he had no business believing in. What you'll hear in this conversation is how he trained his mind more than his body, how flow states carried him through 32 consecutive hours on the final push across Antarctica, and what a four-word mantra repeated every morning for 54 days can actually do to a human being.

Nothing can ruin a meal faster than someone loudly slurping soup, coffee, or noodles. At least that's what many people think. Yet in some cultures, slurping isn't rude at all—it's expected. And as annoying as it may sound, there is actually a surprisingly good reason people do it. https://www.discovermagazine.com/its-not-rude-slurping-makes-food-taste-better-42739 Your beliefs do far more than influence how you see the world—they influence what happens next. The beliefs you hold about yourself, your abilities, other people, and the future affect the opportunities you notice, the risks you're willing to take, and even how successful you're likely to become. The remarkable thing is that many of our most important beliefs operate in the background, quietly steering our decisions without us even realizing it. Shawn Achor, one of the world's leading experts on mindset, happiness, and human potential, explains how beliefs shape our lives, where those beliefs come from, and how changing them can dramatically alter your path. Shawn's TED Talk has been viewed more than 25 million times, and he is author of The Power of Beliefs (https://amzn.to/4a1eR7m). Shawn's TED Talk: https://www.ted.com/talks/shawn_achor_the_happy_secret_to_better_work When people talk about helping the environment, the conversation often sounds like a list of things you have to give up: drive less, fly less, consume less, turn down the thermostat, and generally make life a little less enjoyable. But what if that approach is backward? What if some of the best things you can do for the planet also happen to make you happier? Psychologist Elizabeth Dunn offers a refreshing alternative to guilt, sacrifice, and doom-and-gloom messaging. Elizabeth's work has appeared in major media outlets around the world, and she is co-author of Leave the Lights On: How Joyful Decisions Can Save Our Species (https://amzn.to/4oyXl09). Elizabeth's TED Talk: https://www.ted.com/talks/elizabeth_dunn_helping_others_makes_us_happier_but_it_matters_how_we_do_it The English language is alive. Words and phrases that were once considered incorrect, awkward, or even ridiculous can become perfectly acceptable over time. In fact, some expressions we use every day would have made earlier generations cringe. The evolution of language offers a fascinating look at how culture changes—and how today's "mistakes" sometimes become tomorrow's rules. https://time.com/4293303/garner-common-words-mistakes/ PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS AIR DOCTOR: Head to ⁠⁠⁠https://AirDoctorPro.com⁠⁠⁠ and use promo code SYSK to get $250 off select AirDoctor air purifiers, including the 3500, 4000, and 5500 models.
