Unpredictable cycles. Sleepless nights. Mood swings. Body composition changes. And performance that mirrors all of it. During the menopause transition, you never quite know which body will show up on any given day. As this week's guest menopause run and strength coach Becky Croft explains, you can still get stronger and faster, but it won't come from constantly pushing through or grinding it out. It takes smart planning, a different kind of periodization, and recovery that respects your shifting hormones and the cumulative stress that comes from this time of life. We dive into all of it: hormones, nutrition, hydration, strength, load management, and much more. Becky also opens up about her struggles with endometriosis, surgical menopause, and younger women in menopause can feel left out of the conversation.Becky Croft is a certified running and strength coach who specializes in guiding masters and menopausal athletes through the complex intersections of performance, hormones, and identity. After years of battling endometriosis and undergoing a full hysterectomy at 38, Becky entered surgical menopause as a younger, recreational competitive athlete—and quickly realized the resources she needed didn't exist. So she became the coach she was looking for. She is a Game Changers Coach and Mentor, holds certifications as a RRCA Run Coach, Girls Gone Strong Menopause Strength Coach, and Chi Running & Walking Instructor. Becky is the founder of hustle.run.thrive., where she helps runners of all ages, stages, and identities push performance boundaries without abandoning their bodies.

Recorded live from the Cboe RMC floor in Munich, Cem Karsan sits down with volatility veteran David Dredge for a deep exploration of what truly drives risk. From the crash of 1987 to today's era of correlation, Dredge reframes volatility not as fear, but freedom. Through his F1 “brakes” analogy, he reveals why protection enables performance, and how convexity builds resilience in an uncertain world. Together, they trace the arc from structured-product flows to demographics, fiscal repression, and the coming global “Hunger Games” for savings.

Today’s Bible Verse:“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters.” — Colossians 3:23 Colossians 3:23 reframes everyday effort with a deeper purpose. Whether the task is exciting or ordinary, God invites us to work with wholehearted devotion—not for applause, approval, or recognition, but as an act of worship. When our motivation shifts from people-pleasing to God-honoring, even the smallest responsibilities gain eternal weight. This verse reminds us that excellence is not about perfection—it’s about offering our best because the One we serve is worthy.

Many organizations treat accessibility as just a compliance checkbox, checking the box to meet legal requirements and then moving on. But this mindset misses massive opportunities. When companies design truly inclusive hiring processes, they don't just help candidates with disabilities, but also improve the experience for everyone. Forward-thinking employers are discovering that accessibility drives innovation, expands talent pools, and creates competitive advantages, so how do you move from minimum compliance to genuine inclusivity, and how do you do that at scale? My guests this week are Business Psychologists Brittany Davies and Laura Kate Ruttle from Talogy. In our conversation, they share valuable advice on building an accessible assessment strategy, and we discuss how AI is shaping a whole new future for inclusive hiring. In the interview, we discuss: The current challenges around accessibility and fairness in hiring The significant benefits to employers of going beyond the basic legal requirements Improving hiring for everyone Best practices for encouraging disclosure How AI can help How do you implement inclusive hiring at scale? Advice to TA leaders on what to prioritise The potential of personalized adaptive assessment What might the future look like? Follow this podcast on Apple Podcasts. Follow this podcast on Spotify.

On this one Jared and I sat down with our friend Ryan Teague from Feather and Finch Photography all the way on the Gold Coast of Australia. Ryan is one of those rare photographers who has been wildly “successful” on paper, shooting 120 plus weddings a year, and still had the courage to ask if any of it actually lined up with the life he wanted.We talk about falling in and out of love with photography, what it does to your heart to be a dad to a son with special needs, why surfing every sunrise might be a better business plan than your current workflow, and how much more powerful your work becomes when you stop trying to impress the internet and start trying to really serve the people in front of your lens.If you have ever looked at your own work and thought “this came too easy, is it really worth what I am charging” or felt that quiet little pull to slow down and be more present, this episode is going to hit you in the best way.In this episode we get into:The 120 weddings a year seasonHow Ryan built a fast growing brand on the Gold Coast, what it felt like when the work was almost too easy, and why that started to mess with his sense of value.Falling out of love and finding it againThe honest side of running your own business for years, the seasons where you could not care less about picking up a camera, and the small shifts that brought him back.Rethinking “candid” and “documentary”Ryan talks about how couples use these words, what they actually expect on the wedding day, and how he now has very specific conversations up front so the experience matches the marketing.Empathy first, ego secondWe talk about the difference between being the entertainer at the center of the room and being the quiet presence that makes the room feel safe, and why he is willing to sacrifice a perfect frame if it means his couple stays grounded.Meditative portraits and quiet framesHow music, stillness, and silence shape the way Ryan shoots portraits, why he chases “quiet” images, and what it looks like to invite a couple into a slower, more intentional moment on their wedding day.Parenting, disability, and a very different true northRyan shares how being a dad to a ten year old with cerebral palsy and autism has completely changed his priorities and made it very hard to care about the little vanity games we all get sucked into in this industry.Designing a slower life on purposeSunrise surf sessions, short office days, training, and building a rhythm that actually supports his health and his family instead of constantly demanding more from them.Aftercast preview inside PHOTOCOIn the Aftercast for members we dig into the actual questions Ryan asks his couples, how he prepares them for a more meditative experience, and how he is thinking about storytelling over an entire wedding day as his style shifts.Listen to more episodes and read the show notesPhotographic Collective Podcast homehttps://www.mileswittboyer.com/podcastJoin PHOTOCO and get the Aftercast with RyanPhotographic Collective membership and training platformhttps://www.mileswittboyer.com/photoLearn more about the Photographic Collective communityhttps://www.mileswittboyer.com/photographic-collectiveFeather and Finch Photographyhttps://www.featherandfinchphotography.com.auFeather and Finch on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/featherandfinchphotographyMiles Witt BoyerWebsitehttps://www.mileswittboyer.comInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/mileswittboyerJared Mark FincherWebsitehttps://www.jaredmarkfincher.comInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/jaredmarkfincherIf you are new around here, the Photographic Collective Podcast is basically Jared and me sitting down with people we really respect and pulling on the threads that actually matter.

This episode, Kathryn digs into the art and science of customer experience with Bennett Fox-Glassman, SVP of Customer Journey at Macy's. Together, they explore how listening, context, and authenticity shape memorable interactions in modern retail.Guest Quotes“One of our first focuses was taking stock of what was working and what wasn't. And in our CRM programs, when we looked at them, we believed we could actually get more by sending less, which was maybe counterintuitive at first, but in fact, we have. And so it used to be that it was Tuesday and so everybody got the coats email, and now we are much more attentive to where you are in your journey. So if you recently bought something at home, for example, we wanna be talking to you about how do you style it and how do you complete that room. And that becomes our priority over talking to you about the fact that it happens to be Tuesday.”Episode Breakdown[01:42] Alchemy Unveiled: Rewiring Around the Customer[14:13] From Nuggets to Campaign Gold: Power of Iconic Moments[21:00] Gold Rush Round: Bennett's Bumper Sticker WisdomLinks & Resources:Links & Resources:Connect with Kathryn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kathrynturnoff/Connect with Bennett: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bennettglassman/?skipRedirect=true Learn more about Macy's: https://www.linkedin.com/company/macy/ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

We often think fitness is about pushing harder. More miles. More sweat. More effort.But what if the real secret to lifelong performance and metabolic health lies not in intensity, but in understanding the quiet signals your body sends every day?This week on Live Well Be Well, I'm joined by world renowned physiologist Dr. Iñigo San Millán, director of performance for UAE Team Emirates and one of the leading experts in mitochondrial health, endurance physiology, and chronic metabolic disease. Iñigo has spent decades studying elite athletes and everyday patients, and his work reveals a striking truth. The systems that help world champions thrive are the same systems that protect us from illness, fatigue, and burnout.We explore the science behind training zones, lactate, and metabolic flexibility, but also the human side of energy, longevity, and self trust. Because understanding your physiology is not only about performance. It is about reclaiming your capacity to feel strong, stable, and well in your own life.Here's What We Dive Into:- How mitochondria underpin long-term health and signal metabolic resilience.- Why Zone 2 training improves energy stability and protects against chronic disease.- What lactate truly reveals about your physiology beyond exercise performance.- How elite athletes teach us about metabolic dysfunction and adaptation.- Why nutrition shapes mitochondrial function and insulin sensitivity.- What drives burnout and fatigue at the cellular level and how to reverse it.- How to train smarter by listening to heart rate, breath, and internal cues.- Why most people are unintentionally overtraining or undertraining and how to find balance.Love,Sarah Ann

The Ku Klux Klan is one of the tightest-knit White supremacist groups in America—once someone joins, they're usually in for life. But since the 1980s, over 200 members have renounced their affiliation, and all give credit to the same man: a Black jazz musician named Daryl Davis. In this episode, Adam is joined by Daryl and Jeff Schoep, a former leader of the largest neo-Nazi group in the US whose life and mind were changed by meeting and befriending Daryl. They discuss techniques for challenging ignorance and prejudice, analyze the cognitive dissonance experienced by members of extremist groups, and reflect on the conversations with Daryl that helped Jeff think again. They also explore the limits of empathy and curiosity.Host & GuestAdam Grant (Instagram: @adamgrant | LinkedIn: @adammgrant | Website: https://adamgrant.net/) Daryl Davis (Instagram: @realdaryldavis | Website: https://www.daryldavis.com/) Jeff Schoep (Instagram: @jeff_schoep | Website: https://jeffschoep.com/) Linkshttps://beyondbarriersusa.org/Follow TED!

This wide-ranging conversation with Bryant Mason covers a series of essential—but frequently misunderstood—topics in organic cultivation. We explore why simple, low-tech data collection strategies often outperform high-tech systems and how to interpret those readings in the real world. From there, we break down how pH truly behaves in biologically active soils, what your water test results do and don't tell you, and how water chemistry shapes nutrient availability.We also discuss practical considerations for under-canopy lighting, when it helps and when it's a distraction, and dig into the recurring challenges Bryant sees around phosphorus and nitrogen management in living soil. Throughout the episode we jump between concepts, case studies, and troubleshooting insights that growers can apply immediately.Topics Covered:Low-tech monitoring and data-collection approachespH dynamics in organic systemsWater testing and interpreting resultsUnder-canopy lighting: pros, cons, and real-world usePhosphorus and nitrogen management in living soilPractical troubleshooting and decision-making strategies Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode of What the Fundraising… Change is the hardest thing to sustain but the most important thing in the nonprofit sector. Most of the time, leaders in nonprofit find themselves stuck between knowing what needs to evolve and struggling to make it happen. From outdated systems and burnout to scarcity mindset and fear of failure, the barriers to change are deeply human and structural. This conversation examines why good intentions aren't enough, how leadership habits can either stall or spark transformation, and what it takes to combine mission, money, and mindset for lasting impact.  Our guest today is Andrew Roger Olsen,  the Executive Vice President of Fundraising Solutions at DickersonBakker. He helps organizations strengthen their fundraising and impact with the knowledge he's got from over 25 years of experience in nonprofit leadership and consulting. He lives with his family on a small farm in Knoxville, Tennessee. He joined us today to talk about the challenges and solutions for change in the nonprofit sector.  In this episode, you will be able to: Recognize the common barriers that keep nonprofits from turning awareness into real change. Learn how leadership habits, culture, and burnout shape an organization's ability to evolve. Learn how undervaluing time and avoiding financial discomfort can quietly erode impact. Discover small but strategic steps to align vision, structure, and budget for sustainable growth.

Send us a textWhat happens when we challenge our long-standing assumptions about phototherapy in the NICU? In this special installment of our Rethinking Phototherapy series, Ben and Daphna are joined by Dr. Deepak Manhas to examine one of the most complex questions: how should we manage hyperbilirubinemia in preterm infants?Unlike term babies, preemies face unique risks—shorter red blood cell lifespan, immature bilirubin conjugation, lower albumin binding, and increased blood-brain barrier permeability—all of which make them more vulnerable to bilirubin-induced neurologic dysfunction. This conversation explores why traditional guidelines cannot simply be applied to preterm infants and why clinicians often initiate phototherapy earlier.Dr. Manhas discusses the creation of gestation-specific treatment charts, the challenges and dangers of exchange transfusion in this fragile population, and the uncertain role of therapies such as IVIG, albumin, and phenobarbital. The team also unpacks practical issues: what “double phototherapy” should really mean, how to order irradiance and body surface area coverage with precision, and the role of bili blankets in promoting family bonding.By situating this discussion in the broader Rethinking Phototherapy series, the episode highlights both the progress and the unanswered questions in caring for preterm infants.

Hey y'all. This week, we're talking about one of my favorite topics: planners and systems! If you've ever had a drawer full of half-used planners or too many digital apps that promised to “fix your life,” this one's for you. I'm diving into why we've been taught to chase control—and what happens when we trade that for connection instead. In this episode, I'm sharing my personal journey from over-optimizing everything to creating softer, more flexible systems that actually make space for joy and presence. I'll walk you through how to align your tools with your values and energy so your days feel grounded, not boxed in. By the end, you'll see your planner and routines in a whole new way. It's not about doing more—it's about feeling more you. So grab your favorite drink, get cozy, and let's rethink what it means to plan with purpose.

In today's episode, we're talking about rethinking rest during the holiday season and why traditional “relaxation” doesn't always make us feel restored. If you're overwhelmed by holiday expectations, juggling motherhood, managing a busy home, or trying to keep up with homesteading tasks while feeling exhausted, this conversation is for you. After weeks of dealing with a lingering sinus infection, I realized that true rest isn't always about slowing down, sitting on the couch, or doing nothing. Instead, I discovered that my body and nervous system felt more rested when I prioritized connection, movement, simple accomplishments, and intentional comfort rituals—all things that helped reduce stress more than “relaxing” ever did. Inside this episode, we explore: Why holiday overwhelm hits so hard (and why rest feels impossible) The unexpected thing that finally helped my nervous system reset How a simple girls' night helped my body start to heal Why sitting still can sometimes increase anxiety and mental load How to find rest through connection (girls' nights, date nights, family time) How to feel restored through accomplishment and finishing lingering tasks What “rest through movement” looks like in real life Simple sensory comfort ideas to bring peace back into your home How stress impacts your immune system and overall homestead routine Practical ways to feel grounded, calm, and prepared going into the holiday season Whether you're navigating motherhood, trying to stay consistent with homesteading routines, or just craving a calmer December, you'll learn how to identify your personal rest style so you can support your mental health, reduce stress, and create a holiday season that actually feels good.

When you think of the holidays, you picture Santa, presents, and maybe a few too many sugar cookies, not burglars planning their big season.

How does stress impact the experience of sport? In this episode of the Mental Training Lab, I sat down with Megan Bartlett, founder of the Center for Healing and Justice through Sport, educator, and faculty member of NM Sport, to explore the fascinating intersection of stress science, sport performance, and human development.Megan's work brings together neuroscience and coaching practice through what she calls biological respect. It's the recognition that our stress responses aren't independent choices, and instead we need to collaborate with our physiology! Together, we talk about how coaches can design environments that support athletes' nervous systems, build resilience, and foster true psychological safety.Megan shares practical, science-based strategies that anyone can use to help athletes regulate, recover, and thrive under pressure. Topics include how relationships buffer stress, how humor and structure aid regulation, and why well-being and performance aren't opposites, rather, they're inseparable.If you've ever wondered how to help your athletes (or yourself) perform better and feel better, this conversation will change how you think about training, recovery, and what it really means to create high performance environments.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Learn more about The Mental Training LabConnect with Pete on Instagram | LinkedIn | WebsiteSubscribe to the podcast on Apple | Spotify This show is produced and edited by the team at Palm Tree Pod Co.

In this episode of Technology Reseller News, Publisher Doug Green speaks with Rob Bye, President & Founder of Zenture Partners, about why the traditional telecom procurement and management model is breaking down—and how AI-driven lifecycle management can restore clarity and control for large enterprises. Zenture Partners is a strategic consultancy and AI-powered lifecycle management provider focused on giving enterprises full visibility into, and control over, their global telecom ecosystem, from contracts and circuits to invoices and risk. Bye explains that most large enterprises now live in a state of telecom chaos: hundreds of vendors, hundreds of invoices, and little understanding of contract terms, renewal dates, dependencies, or actual business impact. The old world of a single global MPLS provider has given way to an “internet everywhere” model, with 16,000+ ISPs worldwide, SD-WAN, and cloud-first architectures. At the same time, IT priorities have shifted—cloud infrastructure, security, AI-infused SaaS and CX platforms now consume leadership attention and budget, while telecom is largely ignored “as long as nothing is on fire.” When things break, teams react, extinguish the fire, and then move straight back to higher-visibility projects. Traditional telecom brokers and “no value” agents, Bye argues, have often added complexity rather than removed it. Unlike familiar IT resellers and VARs, telecom agents rarely bring a unified, data-driven platform to the enterprise. Zenture's model is different: it acts as an extension of both IT sourcing and network teams, combining consulting plus a global AI-enabled platform. Enterprises still contract directly with service providers, while the carriers fund Zenture through residual commissions. For customers, the Zenture platform is delivered at no cost, with no contract, ingesting data from TEM systems, carrier portals, invoices, and spreadsheets into a single pane of glass and highlighting where attention is truly needed. AI is at the center of this transformation. Zenture uses AI to continuously evaluate inventory, identify high-risk sites (such as shared last-mile paths or POP exposure), benchmark pricing, and generate recommendations on whether to renew, replace, or upgrade services as contracts approach term. Agentic AI is also used to integrate with carrier marketplaces and portals, automating quoting, ordering, status checks, inventory updates, and billing validation across hundreds of providers. Instead of humans manually combing through dense, ever-changing telecom invoices, AI flags changes, ties new charges to past orders, and confirms that disconnects and adds have been billed correctly, allowing IT and sourcing teams to focus on decisions, not data entry. Looking ahead, Bye sees AI-driven procurement reshaping RFIs, RFPs, benchmarking, and contract review. Enterprise “house” agents will query external platforms like Zenture's marketplace, shrink long vendor lists to a short set of best fits, and then assist stakeholders with risk analysis and legal review. But this doesn't eliminate the human partner; it elevates them. As Bye puts it, “AI isn't going to replace anyone—it's like the moving walkway at an airport.

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we're joined by MacKenzie Price (founder of Alpha School) to talk about the future of education — and what parents can do at home right now to help their kids love learning. MacKenzie is a mom who noticed her daughters going from curious and excited to totally bored in a top-rated traditional school. Instead of accepting “that's just how school is,” she set out to understand why—and ended up building a new model that puts passion, curiosity, and real-life skills back at the center. We talk about the practical things parents can try at home: simple ways to make learning feel engaging, how AI can support reading and math by making it more personalized, what “good” vs. “bad” screen time looks like, and why paying attention to your child's natural interests can make such a difference. Then we zoom out and talk about what school in the U.S. could look like over the next decade as AI becomes part of the classroom — more personalized, more flexible, and potentially giving kids valuable time back for the skills they use in real life. MacKenzie shares great examples of what happens when kids have a little more space to explore, from public-speaking projects to creative deep dives that turn into something bigger.

Send us a textIn the second installment of our Rethinking Phototherapy series, Ben and Daphna welcome Dr. Daniel Rauch, Professor of Pediatrics at the Hackensack Meridian School of Medicine and Division Chief of Pediatric Hospital Medicine and General Academic Pediatrics at Joseph Sanzari Children's Hospital. Dr. Rauch co-authored the AAP technical report on phototherapy and brings a unique perspective on how light therapy should be understood and applied in clinical practice.This conversation reframes phototherapy as a true pharmacotherapy—an intervention that must be delivered in precise doses with attention to wavelength, irradiance, body surface exposure, and treatment duration. Dr. Rauch explains why more light is not always better, how technology has evolved from “easy-bake oven” style lamps to modern LED systems, and why maximizing body surface exposure often matters more than piling on extra light banks. The discussion also touches on cycling strategies, the value and limitations of transcutaneous monitoring, and the potential of home phototherapy to reduce unnecessary hospitalizations while supporting family bonding.Listeners will gain practical insights into the art and science of phototherapy: how to optimize treatment, minimize harm, and communicate clearly with families navigating jaundice management.Support the showAs always, feel free to send us questions, comments, or suggestions to our email: nicupodcast@gmail.com.

Households aren't just about who shares your last name—they're about the people who share your life. In this episode of The GoodKind Podcast, Clayton, Amy, and Chris dig into the idea of “household” as Andy Crouch describes it: a web of relationships that offers belonging, responsibility, and formation in a world that often feels disconnected.From college dorm “communes” to hosting friends who become family, the hosts explore what it really means to live deeply with others. They unpack why modern life makes communal living feel strange, how technology has shaped us into isolated “pixels,” and why the Bible presents a much more connected vision of people bound together by trust and consequence.Whether you're longing for deeper community, curious about living more intentionally with the people around you, or simply wondering if your friend-who's-basically-an-aunt counts as part of your household, this conversation will help you imagine a richer, more rooted way of life.Takeaways:A “household” is more than a family—it's a group of people who share life, trust, and responsibility.Technology can flatten our relationships into interactions without consequence.The Bible describes people as interconnected, like a net—distinct but bound together.Hospitality is one of the simplest ways to rebuild household-like rhythms.Deep community doesn't always require sharing a roof, but it does require shared presence and vulnerability.You can take small, intentional steps toward creating a modern household right where you are.Resources & Products Mentioned:The Life We're Looking For – Andy Crouch's exploration of households and human flourishing.The Gospel Comes With a House Key – Rosaria Butterfield on hospitality and biblical community.

In recent weeks, as many listeners know, I've been exploring ways to challenge false arguments that MCS is a psychological disorder.I hope you find this episode of The Chemical Sensitivity Podcast helps.You'll hear me in conversation with Kevin Elliott, Ph.D. He is the Red Cedar Distinguished Professor of Philosophy of Science at Michigan State University in the U.S.I was delighted to speak with Kevin, learn about his important research — and I am excited to share this episode with you. Kevin explains how scientific research practices — from hidden assumptions to “undone science” — have shaped decades of misunderstanding around Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS). You'll hear Kevin explore: How his mother's MCS inspired him to spend decades researching the illnessWhy certain kinds of evidence are ignoredHow harmful psychogenic theories persistAnd what needs to change in research frameworks to genuinely support people living with MCS. This conversation is forward-looking and grounded in the belief that better science is both possible and urgently needed to support people with MCS.Listen at https://www.chemicalsensitivitypodcast.org/Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@podcastingMCS#MCSAdvocacy #MultipleChemicalSensitivithy #MCS #InvisibleIllnessAwareness #SafeHealthcareSpaces #ChemicalIntoleranceLinks:Kevin Elliott:https://kevincelliott.com/Kevin's 2025 paper: "Alleviating Epistemic Injustice in Environmental Health Research: Strategies from Science and Values":https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11245-025-10268-3DISCLAIMER: THIS WEBSITE DOES NOT PROVIDE MEDICAL ADVICE The information, including but not limited to, text, graphics, images, and other material contained on this website are for informational purposes only.

When Hispanic survivors of intimate partner violence seek help, they face a gauntlet of unique cultural barriers that can make safety seem impossible. From family members who prioritize appearances over protection to faith leaders who frame abuse as a spiritual test, the path to safety is fraught with roadblocks that extend far beyond language differences alone.Teresa Gallegos, Director of Outreach and Accessibility at the Kansas Coalition Against Sexual and Domestic Violence, brings profound insights to these challenges. Drawing from her experience as a nationally credentialed advocate, immigrant, and sibling survivor, Teresa walks us through powerful scenarios that illustrate how these cultural dynamics play out in real life. She explains why simply translating existing materials into Spanish misses the mark and how her groundbreaking "Juntos le ayudamos" (Together We Will Help Them) campaign took a fundamentally different approach.Instead of targeting survivors directly, this innovative campaign focused on "comadres" and "compadres" – the trusted allies who serve as crucial lifelines when survivors finally decide to share their stories. Teresa reveals how her team crafted culturally-specific radio spots, billboards, WhatsApp messages, and even old-school tear-off flyers that resonated with Hispanic communities across Kansas. Most powerfully, she shares how seeing these Spanish-language resources gives survivors a profound sense of validation: "You matter enough for someone to do this."Whether you're a service provider looking to better reach Hispanic communities or someone who might one day be that trusted "comadre" for a survivor, this conversation offers concrete strategies and commitment statements that can make all the difference. Join us to learn how small actions – from exploring your local grocery store's community board to implementing language access policies – can create pathways to safety for Hispanic survivors in your community.

What if the way your team talks is the blueprint for every product you ship? We sit down with Erica Hall—co‑founder of Mule Design and author of Just Enough Research and Conversational Design—to connect the dots between internal communication, ethical practice, and the systems that end up in people's hands. From AI hype to accessibility debt, Erica challenges the default settings that turn “innovation” into convenience theater and shows how small, human choices reshape outcomes.We unpack Conway's Law and why so many “conversational” tools are really shields that prevent actual conversation. Erica explains why accessibility must be the foundation of value delivery, not an add‑on, and how multimodal design—voice, text, GUI—honors real life context switching. We talk about the political economy behind today's platforms: funding fads, LLM bandwagons, and the quiet scaling of bias through automated decision making. Along the way, we explore the power dynamics of in‑house design teams, why external partners once provided crucial leverage, and how fear erodes the point of view needed to build responsible products.Most importantly, we get practical. Erica shares tactics to rebuild trust at work through private, human conversations that aren't mediated or recorded; ways to move beyond AI theater by naming goals before choosing tools; and advice for new graduates navigating a volatile market without losing themselves. If you're wrestling with inclusion, ethics, or the pressure to “ship a chatbot,” this conversation offers clear language, real examples, and a path to designing with dignity.Listen, share with a colleague who needs a sanity check, and leave a review so more builders can find this conversation.

Welcome to another thought-provoking episode of Build a Better Agency! Host Drew McLellan sits down with Robin Bonn, agency veteran and founder of Codefinery, for a candid conversation that tackles one of the agency world's biggest challenges: true differentiation. Drawing on over two decades of industry experience and insights from his new book, Market of One, Robin unpacks why even the most creative agencies struggle to set themselves apart and how owners can reimagine their businesses for lasting competitive advantage. Drew and Robin delve deep into the heart of agency positioning, debunking the myths and tired tropes that so many firms rely on to claim they're "different." From generic claims about people and creativity to the pitfalls of "category norms," Robin shares why most agencies' attempts at standing out fall flat—and what it really means to create a business model that's as unique as a fingerprint. Listeners will hear practical advice for moving beyond superficial branding tactics and start building what Robin calls a "market of one"—where your agency's true value is clear, tangible, and uncopyable. The episode also explores the often-overlooked role of pricing as a key differentiator, the pervasive fear and herd mentality that keep agencies stuck, and the transformative impact of AI on agency business models. Robin challenges listeners to rethink everything from service offerings to client fit—encouraging leaders to embrace strategy, redefine success beyond just growth, and make bold choices that align with both financial health and personal fulfillment.   Tune in if you're ready to move past the sea of sameness and face the future with optimism and intention.

Dr. Kemper served as chair of the American Academy of Pediatrics subcommittee that authored the 2022 revision of the neonatal hyperbilirubinemia guidelines.Together, they explore the motivations behind revisiting the 2004 guideline, the major changes introduced, and how these revisions are shaping clinical care. Dr. Kemper explains why treatment thresholds for phototherapy were raised, the careful balance between avoiding unnecessary interventions and preventing kernicterus, and the rationale for moving away from the risk stratification nomogram. The discussion highlights phototherapy as an effective but not benign therapy—one that can disrupt bonding, prolong hospitalization, and create family stress when overused.Listeners will gain insight into the complexities of evidence review, the challenges of consensus-building over eight years of work, and the importance of shared decision-making and reliable follow-up after discharge. This conversation not only demystifies the new guidelines but also reframes the way clinicians think about jaundice management, risk stratification, and the broader impact on families.Support the showAs always, feel free to send us questions, comments, or suggestions to our email: nicupodcast@gmail.com.

This week on "People in Transition", our guest is Jack Calhoun—an inspiring guide for anyone exploring what comes after a successful first career. As the founder of Encore Career Lab, Jack helps high-achieving professionals design meaningful “second acts” that blend purpose, flexibility, and fulfillment. His passion comes from experience: after leading Capital Directions, LLC from $50 million to over $1.5 billion in assets under management, Jack sold the firm in his early 50s—and quickly discovered how little guidance there was for life after career success. That realization became his mission: to help others bridge the gap between retirement planning and life planning.During our conversation, Jack shared powerful insights and practical guidance for listeners thinking about their next chapter, including:Redefining identity: How to deal with the loss of identity that often comes when stepping away from a long career.Rethinking retirement: Why the traditional idea of “retirement at 65” no longer fits our longer, healthier lives—and what sustainable reinvention really looks like.Evolving goals: How success, satisfaction, and fulfillment shift as we enter the third phase of our lives—and how to measure meaning, not just achievement.Giving back wisely: The role of volunteering in encore careers, and why it won't fill the void where "work" used to be.Real-life transformations: Inspiring stories of people who discovered unexpected “callings” far different from their earlier careers.Sharing hard-earned wisdom: How to recognize and use the insights you wish you'd known 30 years ago to help others—and yourself—today.If you've ever wondered, “What's next for me?”—this episode is a must-listen. Jack's perspective will leave you inspired to see the years ahead not as a winding down, but as a powerful new beginning.

In this powerful episode of the BIG Home Ed Conversations Podcast, Kelly and Ashley sit down with author, educator and neurodivergent advocate Helen Daniel to unpack ableism in the education system through the lens of SEND and neurodivergence. Drawing on Helen's experience as a teacher, academic and author of Neurosensory Divergence: Autistic Languages, they explore how a system built on standardisation often fails autistic and otherwise neurodivergent children – and what more equitable, sensory-aware education could look like, both in school and in home ed. Together they dive into: How curriculum changes and raised targets (times tables, Shakespeare, early formal writing) pushed more neurodivergent children “outside the norm.” Why standardisation is the enemy of equity – and why one-size-fits-all schooling doesn't work for diverse brains. EHCPs, SEND provision and why the system feels broken for so many families. Sensory profiles, overload and meltdowns: what's really going on beneath “behaviour.” Practical examples of small, powerful accommodations (movement, video learning, headphones, flexible seating.) How home ed groups can unintentionally replicate ableism – and how to design more inclusive spaces. Teaching all children (ND and NT) compassion, curiosity and respect for different needs. This is a validating, eye-opening listen for: Parents of autistic, ADHD, PDA or otherwise neurodivergent children. Home educating families navigating SEND needs. Teachers who feel the system is wrong but don't know how to change it. Any parent wanting to raise more compassionate, neuro-affirming kids. Guest Spotlight: Find Helen's book Neurosensory Divergence: Autistic Languages in all the usual places for a deeper dive into sensory processing, autistic communication and building truly equitable lives for autistic children.

In this episode, Jenny Blake explores how we can begin rethinking how we work and live, and why freedom is a system, not a feeling. She talks about what happens when our desire for control masquerades as safety, how the wrong metrics keep us stuck, and why real freedom comes from building systems that create space instead of pressure. Jenny also digs into the fear-based habits that quietly run our days and how to redesign our lives so they support what matters most.
