Artificial intelligence is changing the rules of software investing, forcing private equity firms to adapt quickly and carefully. In this episode, we're joined by the team from Code & Co., one of the leading AI and tech due diligence firms serving private equity investors, to discuss how AI is transforming the way software companies are evaluated before a deal closes. Jim sits down with Code & Co. Managing Partners Dan Bender and Lukas Ingelheim along with Head of North America Kirby Montgomery to explain why tech due diligence is no longer just a checkbox exercise. Dan, Lukas and Kirby walk us through real-world examples of overengineered software, cloud optimization opportunities worth millions of dollars, and how PE firms can identify companies that are positioned to thrive rather than become the next commoditized AI feature. Whether you're a private equity investor, software executive, operating partner, founder, or technology leader, this episode offers a practical look at what separates durable software businesses from those at risk of being disrupted. About Code & Co.: Founded in 2016, Code & Co. has close to 1000 engagements behind them for more than 200 global funds. They are a global and fast-growing practice with offices in Berlin, London, Paris and New York. From a fast first-read all the way through post-close value creation, Code & Co. works across the full deal life cycle on both the buy-side and sell-side. Every member of the team is an operator with hands-on tech, product, and AI experience. That experience helps them take a confident view on where AI is building a real moat versus just being a feature that gets commoditized away.

The rise and fall of unemployment, our dependence on the market for our livelihoods — such things are taken as a given. But economist Clara Mattei suggests we need to recognize them as being fundamentally political phenomena, not the product of natural laws outside of our control. She argues that a reconsideration of our capitalist economy is long overdue. Clara E.

What if the strategy you just shipped is already obsolete? In this episode of Product Talk hosted by Digitalzone CPO Sonjoy Ganguly, Syntheseed CPO Sam Somashekar speaks on what it means to lead product in an era where the pace of change has outrun the annual planning cycle, AI is generating strategies that all sound the same, and the pressure to experiment is pulling leaders further from the strategic thinking they were hired to do. Sam and Sanjay explore why the human element is more important than ever, how shared KPIs across functions unlock real alignment, and what product leaders need to stop doing right now.

Most people spend twenty years climbing a mountain, reach the top, and realize they never wanted the view. In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill sits down with Robert Glazer to break down why core values are the most underused tool in leadership. They get into where your values actually come from, why you can't coach them into the people you hire, and why most leaders are measuring their teams with the wrong scorecard entirely. If you've ever hit a milestone and felt nothing, this conversation explains why, and what to do about it. Here's what you'll learn: Why your core values were set early in life, and what it costs you to lead without knowing them How to hire for the values people actually live instead of the ones they perform in interviews What separates a real company core value from a poster on the wall nobody believes in The view from the top is only worth it if you picked the right mountain to climb.

For the last 50 years, we've operated under a single dominant idea: the purpose of business is to maximize shareholder value. But what if this whole era of extraction and short-termism isn't the natural order at all? What if it's just a blip? Sarah Gillard, CEO of Blueprint for Better Business, has spent 25 years inside major corporations watching what happens when companies forget what they're actually for, and she makes the case that business has both the power and the obligation to change it.Episode Highlights: [00:02:42] Two very different business models: profit maximization vs. employee ownership, from inside the same industry [00:06:37] The ESG rollback in context: what the data actually shows about corporate commitments [00:09:03] The forces of gravity that act on companies as they scale, and why purpose needs structural defense [00:12:17] The 70% problem: why intangible assets dominate organizational value but get ignored [00:15:27] Rethinking the social contract: why government, business, and civil society can't afford separate swim lanes [00:27:07] AI as a force for good or fragility: the questions businesses aren't asking but should be [00:37:58] Blueprint for Better Business's two foundational ideas, and why neither is as radical as it soundsNotable Quotes: Eric Ressler [00:25:20]: "We need more in culture imagining what that future could and should be, instead of constantly only warning about what it's looking like it's going to be." Sarah Gillard [00:38:40]: "Historically we will see these last 50-odd years as an odd blip. How do we take the most powerful shaper of our societies and just go: just focus on the money? Just weird." Sarah Gillard [00:40:20]: "Good intentions are necessary, but not sufficient. You need legal and governance mechanisms that keep you on track even when there is significant pressure to move."Resources & Links:Blueprint for Better Business — Sarah's organization; the one-page AI framework for boardrooms is available on their websiteJohn Lewis Partnership — The UK's largest employee-owned business, where Sarah led purpose strategyThe Ministry for the Future by Kim Stanley Robinson Dear Alice: Utopian anime yogurt commercial — mentioned by Eric as a rare example of positive future imageryHosted by Eric Ressler, Founder & Creative Director of Cosmic, with co-host Jonathan Hicken, Executive Director of the Seymour Marine Discovery Center.

One diagnosis flipped a scientist's entire life upside down, and led her to research that's giving parents real hope.Dr. Theresa Lyons, scientist and autism mom, joins Brigitte Cutshall on Real Things Living to break down what autism actually is — a wide spectrum that can look completely different from one child to the next. She explains why autism is rooted in the nervous system, not "bad behavior," how nutrition and gut health can drive emotional outbursts and hyperactivity, and shares groundbreaking research showing autism isn't always lifelong. This is a conversation full of compassion, science, and hope for parents navigating a new diagnosis.3 Takeaways:(1) Autism is a true spectrum — from nonverbal kids with intense daily-living needs to highly verbal kids whose challenges show up mainly in social communication.(2) Behaviors like anger, hyperactivity, or meltdowns often trace back to the nervous system — infections, nutrition deficiencies, and gut health all play a role.(3) New 2023 research from Boston Children's Hospital found 37% of kids lost their autism diagnosis over time — proof that early, holistic support can change a child's trajectory.If you're a parent navigating an autism diagnosis, visit Dr. Teresa's Navigating AWEtism platform (yes — spelled A-W-E-T-I-S-M) for science-backed support, lab testing, and health coaching. https://awetism.co/work-together

In this episode of SLP Coffee Talk, Hallie chats with Emily Byers Chaney—pediatric SLP, private practice owner, and neurodiversity affirming advocate—about why following directions goals might not be telling you what you think they are. Emily shares how working alongside Jessie Ginsburg shifted her entire clinical lens, what's really happening when a child doesn't follow a direction, and how to build therapy that's meaningful, motivating, and actually carries over. This one's for every SLP who's ever wondered if there's a better way to work on receptive language.Bullet Points to Discuss: Why following directions tasks often measure compliance—not comprehensionWhat neurodiversity affirming therapy looks like compared to compliance-based approachesHow dysregulation, executive functioning, and sensory needs can all interfere with following a directionWhat PDA profile is and how demands affect those students differentlyWhy adult-directed tasks are less effective—and what to do insteadHere's what we learned: Comprehension ≠ compliance. A child can understand and still not follow through.Connection first. Safety and relationship aren't a detour—they're the work.Go beyond the assessment. Play-based observation reveals what standardized testing misses.Watch for overcompliance. Too much compliance-focused therapy can erode autonomy and self-advocacy.One small shift. You don't have to overhaul everything—just start somewhere.Learn more about Emily Byers Chaney: Website: https://www.ndaffirmingslp.com Website: https://www.boundlessspeech.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ndaffirming.slp/ Learn more about Hallie Sherman and SLP Elevate:  

It has been a bit more than six years since then Commandant of the Marine Corps, General David Berger, USMC, initiated what became known as Force Design 2030 (now just known as Force Design). What followed was a controversial change to the structure of the United States Marine Corps intended to address the challenge posed by the People's Republic of China in the western Pacific.Now more than halfway to the original 2030 target, and informed by events from Ukraine and Southwest Asia since 2020, both long-standing critics of the design and other voices are readdressing the changes—and the critique—to see if it remains the right path.Joining the Midrats Podcast is General Anthony Zinni, USMC (Ret.).SummaryIn this episode, retired General Anthony Zinny discusses the evolution of Marine Corps force design, its strategic implications, and the importance of a flexible, well-analyzed approach to military modernization.Show LinksGeneral Anthony Zinni, USMC (Ret.) full bioForce Design 2030Marine leaders drop ‘2030' from name of ambitious overhaul planUSMC Force Design Update from 2023The Marines Must Think Bigger Than Small Units, Real Clear Defense, December 09, 2025, Anthony Zinni & Jerry McAbee , Timothy WellsMore funding for the wrong programs won't fix the Marine Corps, Washington Times, July 10, 2025, by Gen.

In this episode, Dan and Stephanie sit down with Dr. Jake Porter for a thoughtful and honest conversation about one of the most debated — and often weaponized — passages in Christian marriage discussions: 1 Corinthians 7.What did Paul actually mean when he wrote about marital intimacy? How has this passage been misused to justify pressure, coercion, and “duty sex” within Christian relationships? And what happens when mutuality, context, and the heart of the Gospel are stripped away from the conversation?Together, they unpack the historical and relational context of Paul's words, explore the difference between covenant and control, and discuss how Scripture can be applied in ways that either foster safety and connection or deepen shame and harm.This episode is not about dismissing Scripture. It is about reading it carefully, relationally, and in the spirit it was intended.Topics include:Weaponized Scripture in marriage“Duty sex” and coercive interpretationsMutuality and consent in 1 Corinthians 7What Dr. Stephanie has heard in her NeuroDiverse Couples' WorkIs there such a thing as the sin of withholding?What Paul was addressing in the Corinthian churchHow pastors and couples can approach these conversations with wisdom and careA nuanced conversation about theology, relationships, and the difference between biblical intimacy and spiritual pressure. About Dr. Jake Porter:https://www.daringventures.com/Scripturally, Pastorally & Clinically Trained:EducationB.A., Elmira College, triple majors in Psychology, Music, Philosophy & ReligionM.Div., Southwestern Baptist Theological SeminaryTh.M. in Spirituality & Ethics, The Southern Baptist Theological SeminaryM.Ed. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, Lamar UniversityEd.D., The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary.

In this episode of Inside the Lab, Patricia Delgado and Liz Etkin-Kramer explore the evolving landscape of cervical cancer screening amid recent guideline updates emphasizing primary HPV testing, self-collection, and revised screening exit criteria. The conversation examines the challenges posed by HPV-negative cervical cancers and highlights the importance of close collaboration between pathology and OB-GYN teams when screening results, clinical findings, and patient presentation do not align neatly. Through a detailed case discussion, the guests describe how ongoing communication and iterative review between specialties ultimately leads to improved diagnostic accuracy in difficult cases, underscoring the value of interdisciplinary partnership in complex gynecologic cases.Key TakeawaysRecent cervical cancer screening updates are not yet fully harmonized across major professional organizations, creating a transitional landscape that clinicians and laboratories must navigate carefully.HPV-negative cervical lesions and cancers can present significant diagnostic challenges, particularly when standard screening results do not match clinical suspicion.Strong, iterative collaboration between OB-GYNs and pathologists can be critical for resolving complex cases and achieving accurate diagnoses, as illustrated by the discussion of lobular endocervical glandular hyperplasia.

Segmentation sounds like the answer to everything. The right message to the right person at the right time - that's the dream. And to be clear, I'm a segment stan. Smart segmentation is one of the most powerful things you can do for your email program. But the conversation around it is almost always one-directional: more segments, more targeting, more personalization. And at a certain point, that stops being true. I see brands build 12, 20, who even knows how many segments - and end up spending more time managing those segments than actually sending good campaigns. The result is a sophisticated-looking account generating less revenue than a simpler setup would. More segments doesn't automatically mean more revenue. Often it just means more complexity for the sake of complexity. There's also a math problem most brands don't see coming. When you fracture your engaged list into smaller segments, you're sending to fewer people - and the lift in open rates doesn't always make up for the drop in volume. Worse, when you send one campaign to five "different" segments, there's almost always massive overlap. You're not reaching new people. You're just hitting your most engaged subscribers more often. In this episode, I break down when segmentation starts working against you, the simple test for deciding which segments are actually worth keeping, and what a leaner, more sustainable segmentation strategy actually looks like. ✨ In this episode, you'll learn: Why more segments doesn't automatically mean more revenue - and can actually mean less The real workload cost of maintaining too many segments The math problem most brands don't realize they have when they over-segment Why sending one campaign to five "different" segments often just means hitting the same people more often Why using a completely different segment for every send leaves you with no baseline to learn from The simple test for deciding whether a segment is actually worth keeping Why segments with only 10-20 people are usually adding noise, not value What a leaner segmentation strategy looks like: one engaged foundation plus a small number of intentional layers A leaner set of segments you actually use is worth far more than an elaborate setup that mostly just looks impressive.

If you've ever found yourself longing for a break from the pressures of life, you're not alone. We all know what it feels like to be overwhelmed by responsibilities, worries, distractions, and the constant feeling that there is always one more thing demanding our attention. But what if biblical rest is more than simply escaping stress for a little while? In this opening message, we'll begin exploring what Scripture teaches about true rest, not as the absence of difficulty, but as learning to dwell with God in the middle of real life. Together we'll look at: • God's pattern of rest in Genesis 2 • Jesus' invitation to weary people in Matthew 11 • Peter stepping out of the boat in the middle of the storm in Matthew 14 • Why the Psalms have been a source of comfort and strength for believers throughout history • How dwelling in God's Word helps anchor our hearts when life feels unsettled This message also introduces the four Psalms we'll be studying throughout the CHILL series: C — Come to Him (Psalm 34) H — Hide in Him (Psalm 27) I — Know Him as the Great I AM (Psalm 145) L-L — Let Go and Let God (Psalm 46) Dwelling Richly is a non-denominational parachurch ministry with community Bible studies, discipleship, retreats, workshops and fellowship to help disciple others to "let the word of Christ dwell" in us richly. || SOCIAL MEDIA || Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/dwellingrichlypodcast || PODCAST || Any platform - "The Dwelling Richly Podcast" https://dwellingrichly.podbean.com/

What does it actually mean to be a good parent and why does knowing the research make it harder, not easier? This week I'm sharing an interview I did with Adam Grant on his show, ReThinking,  where we got into the framework I come back to constantly: all feelings are welcome, but all behaviors are not. We talked about gentle parenting, why asking your child to do something nine times is no better than asking twice, orchid vs. dandelion kids, and what I think the job of a parent actually is. What you'll hear: Why "all feelings are welcome, but all behaviors are not" is the organizing principle behind almost every parenting question What orchid/dandelion research reveals about why some kids are more harmed by permissiveness than others Why asking more than twice doesn't increase compliance and what to do instead The one-sentence definition of the parenting job I keep coming back to This episode is brought to you by: Merit Beauty: It's time for your makeup and skincare to meet the reality of your daily routine with Merit Beauty.com OneSkin: Unlock your healthiest skin now and as you age.

How do we determine when a learner has truly mastered a skill? In behavior analysis, performance criteria such as "80% correct across two sessions" have become nearly ubiquitous. Yet despite their widespread use, many practitioners may be surprised to learn that these criteria have relatively little direct empirical support. In this episode, I'm joined by Drs. Sarah Richling and Dr. Daniel Fienup to discuss the history, research, and practical implications of mastery criteria in applied behavior analysis. Drawing on their independent lines of research, Sarah and Dan examine how different criterion levels influence skill maintenance and why behavior analysts should think carefully about what constitutes meaningful mastery. We begin by defining the terminology surrounding mastery and performance criteria and explore several important dimensions that are often overlooked, including criterion level, criterion frequency, supplementary variables, and units of analysis. The conversation then turns to the origins of the commonly used 80% and 90% thresholds. Although these criteria appear throughout ABA training and practice, Sarah and Dan explain that their widespread adoption may owe more to tradition than to empirical validation. We also discuss findings from their research comparing 50%, 80%, and 90% mastery criteria. Their studies suggest that higher performance criteria may produce stronger maintenance outcomes under some conditions, but they emphasize that practitioners should resist the temptation to adopt a new universal rule. Along the way, we explore: The distinction between mastery criteria and performance criteria. Why "80% correct" became so common in ABA. Historical influences from early behavior analytic and educational research. Research comparing 50%, 80%, and 90% mastery criteria. The relationship between mastery criteria and long-term maintenance. Why some behaviors may require near-perfect performance. The importance of considering the natural environment when setting performance standards. How units of analysis can affect instructional decision making. The risks of relying on aggregated data when teaching multiple skills. Generalization, maintenance, and supplementary variables. Lessons from Precision Teaching regarding fluency and functional mastery. Why performance criteria should be individualized rather than universally prescribed. Research opportunities for practitioners and graduate students interested in instructional design. Throughout the discussion, Sarah and Dan make a compelling case for moving beyond inherited rules and toward a more individualized, evidence-based approach to instructional decision making. Whether you're designing skill acquisition programs, supervising trainees, or simply curious about the assumptions that shape everyday practice, this episode offers a thoughtful examination of one of the most common—and least questioned—features of behavior analytic instruction.

In this episode, preventive cardiologist Dr. Ann Marie Navar, a member of the committee that helped shape the American Heart Association's new recommendations for earlier cholesterol management, explains why many experts believe cardiovascular prevention should begin decades before most people ever experience symptoms. Dr. Navar explains why lowering LDL cholesterol earlier in life can have lasting benefits decades later, how ApoB and lipoprotein(a) are reshaping the way experts think about heart disease risk, and why some of the most popular fears surrounding statins aren't supported by the evidence. The conversation also explores the growing divide between evidence-based medicine and the wellness industry and the challenges of separating compelling biological theories from treatments that have actually been proven to improve health outcomes. She's a wealth of knowledge and a wonderful guest. Hope you enjoy.

The Gilded Age has become one of the most common analogies for our own time, invoked as shorthand for economic inequality and political corruption. But that comparison misses much of what made the period extraordinary. After the Civil War, the United States experienced an incredible period of economic growth that completely transformed American life and landscapes.In this episode of The Human Progress Podcast, economic historian Brian Domitrovic joins our managing editor Chelsea Follett to discuss why the conventional story of the Gilded Age is incomplete, how industrialization made ordinary Americans better off, and what we can learn from the triumphs of the Gilded Age.

On this episode of Power House, Zeb Lowe sits down with Simone Kelly, founder of Seniornicity, to discuss one of housing's most overlooked challenges: helping seniors navigate the later stages of homeownership. Drawing on experience across mortgage, real estate and senior services, Kelly explains why many older homeowners aren't staying put because they refuse to move—they're staying because the alternatives are complex, emotional and overwhelming. The conversation explores aging in place, reverse mortgages, caregiving and the growing opportunity for housing professionals willing to serve an aging population. Kelly argues that success in this space isn't about generating leads. It's about building trust, relationships and support systems that help families navigate major life transitions. In an industry increasingly focused on speed and automation, she makes the case for a more human approach.

In this episode of The Hormone Genius Podcast, we sit down with Olivia Chasteen, Director of SymptoPro Fertility Education, to have an honest and empowering conversation about women's health, fertility awareness, and the gap between conventional care and true root-cause solutions. So many women are handed quick fixes, band-aid solutions that often mask symptoms rather than address what's really going on. Hormonal contraception is frequently prescribed as a way to “regulate” cycles, yet it doesn't actually restore or regulate the body's natural rhythms, and it comes with real side effects that can impact nearly every system in a woman's body. Olivia shares how the SymptoPro method, a sympto-thermal approach to Natural Family Planning (NFP), offers a science-based, effective alternative that works with a woman's body instead of against it. We explore the history and effectiveness of SymptoPro, including how it has helped couples confidently avoid pregnancy when used correctly, while also serving as a powerful tool for those trying to conceive. But this conversation goes far beyond family planning. Cycle tracking is a window into a woman's overall health. Whether married, single, trying to conceive, or simply wanting to understand her body better, charting can reveal valuable insights from hormonal imbalances to thyroid concerns, luteal phase defects, and more. Olivia explains how even women with no immediate fertility goals can benefit deeply from learning to read the signs their bodies are giving them each day. We also dive into the reality that charting isn't always straightforward—and that's okay. If your charts feel confusing or inconsistent, it doesn't mean your body is broken. It means there's more to uncover. Olivia walks through practical troubleshooting strategies and emphasizes the importance of individualized support and education. In a culture that often paints the female body as inconvenient or flawed, true healing begins when we learn to understand and respect what our bodies are communicating. There is real support. There are real answers. And there is real beauty in understanding your fertility. What the SymptoPro method is and how long it's been helping women and couples How effective SymptoPro is for avoiding pregnancy when used correctly How it supports couples trying to conceive Why cycle tracking is a powerful health tool for all women, not just those planning families What your fertility chart can reveal about your overall health Practical tips for when charting feels confusing or overwhelming Why one method may not fit everyone, and how to find the right approach for you The deeper issue with “quick fix” solutions in women's healthcare Olivia also shares her work as a Certified Lactation Consultant, wellness professional, and instructor serving families in rural Wisconsin where access to fertility education and medical support can be limited, yet deeply needed.

On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with John Franklin Rinehart, founder of Austin Film Crew. We talk in depth about his latest project in Gonzalez, Texas, and the Texas Legacy in Lights project, a full-scale live-action film projected onto the Gonzalez Memorial Museum. With the film, John is helping the community prepare for future visitors by developing new branding and digital assets that reflect the community. What You Will Learn in This Episode: How John moved from a career in music to becoming a leader in experiential storytelling How thinking differently can create breakthroughs for small destinations What inspired the Texas Legacy and Lights project in Gonzalez, Texas, and how live-action projection mapping was used to tell a unique local story How John and his team rebuilt Gonzalez's tourism platform after the city lost its website, and what went into creating digital assets for community branding Why translating tourism websites into dozens of languages creates new opportunities to attract international visitors, even for small towns How leadership, vision, and empowering local talent can transform ordinary community assets into extraordinary tourism attractions Lessons John has learned about overcoming skepticism and inspiring communities to believe in bold, world-class projects Challenging the Status Quo in Tourism Marketing Tourism marketing often feels like a tightly-packed field, but John believes the space is less competitive than it is stale. Many marketers follow in others' footsteps, replicating strategies instead of innovating. Real breakthrough requires a willingness to "break your brain a little bit"—to stop asking what everyone else is doing and start challenging your own assumptions. The key is to create something so unique that people and the media cannot help but take notice. If no one is willing to write about your idea or pay attention to it, then it's not bold enough to rise above the noise. The Texas Legacy in Lights Project Gonzalez, Texas, is steeped in history, forever linked to the "Come and Take It" flag and the beginning of the Texas Revolution. But its story has long been overshadowed by the likes of the Alamo. The city's challenge is to tell its tale in a way that stands out not just locally, but on the global stage. Enter Texas Legacy in Lights: a full-scale, live-action film projected using cutting-edge 3D mapping technology onto the city's Memorial Museum. John and his team tackled the much harder task of using live-action film to bring history to life right on the building's facade. The project required extensive technical, creative, and engineering skill, from building accurate period costumes and sets to installing a sound system that's immersive within the venue but virtually silent outside, because of the residential community nearby. Rethinking the Ordinary Tourism Website Tourism starts online, but most tourism websites are mere directories meant for visitors who have already chosen their destination. John's challenge is to ignite aspiration and connection long before travelers decide to visit. Gonzalez's new digital hub goes well beyond the norm: it features content in 50 languages, each tailored and not just run through Google Translate. The site provides unique guides for different cultures, practical tips for international visitors (like where to buy good bread or how to navigate transportation-less Texas), and locally-flavored stories that spark emotion and imagination. This strategic move recognizes overlooked audience segments searching the web, making Gonzalez visible to the world and accessible in unprecedented ways.

Modern cloud environments are evolving faster than traditional security models can keep up. In this episode, we sit down with Yarin Pinyan, VP Products at Upwind, to explore how real-time runtime visibility and behavioral baselining are reshaping how organizations detect and respond to threats, especially zero-day and supply chain attacks that emerge before signatures or CVEs exist. We'll also discuss how AI is enabling a new generation of cloud security, where detection, investigation, and response happen continuously and automatically. The conversation highlights how organizations can reduce risk, improve operational efficiency, and protect critical workloads in dynamic, cloud-native environments.AWS MP offering: https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/prodview-ff3am62vjukrw?sr=0-1&ref_=beagle&applicationId=AWSMPContessaWebsite: https://www.upwind.io/Customer success story: https://www.upwind.io/case-studiesAWS Hosts: Nolan Chen & Ashok MahajanEmail Your Feedback: rethinkpodcast@amazon.com

In this episode, Gies Business professor Eren Ahsen shares his unconventional journey from mathematics and electrical engineering to machine learning in healthcare and ultimately business education. He discusses how AI evolved from an academic pursuit into a transformative force in medicine and organizations, why combining multiple algorithms leads to better decisions, and how business leaders can thoughtfully integrate AI into real-world workflows. With insights on bias, human judgment, and the future of business schools, Eren makes the case for cross-disciplinary, human-centered AI that improves lives without removing the human touch.

John D'Alesandro, a healthcare operations guru, Amplefi stresses that generally, healthcare operations do not suffer from a lack of staff or technology but from a failure to properly define goals and understand healthcare as a complex system. The reliance on outdated processes and the misapplication of technology has led to the introduction of AI into the environment without first addressing foundational system flaws. He advocates for a simpler, common-sense approach rather than platitudes about patient safety, ensuring that AI models are not trained on inaccurate data from broken systems or undocumented workarounds. John asks, "What is healthcare? Well, healthcare is a ton of things. What is the patient experience? Well, depends on the patient. So when we use these generic terms, they tend to cloud the performance of the system. So I think the first place we need to start is to say something like, " What's an ER experience that we're proud of?" If it's four hours, then it's four hours. But if it's longer or shorter than that, we need targets and reference models to know what we're doing, because we're adding a lot of things and a lot of complexity. We're not really realizing that those are systems. Those systems, when they produce friction, get hit on the frontline. The front lines have to deal with vague, unclear expectations."   "Patient experience isn't smiling. It's delivering your care in a reliable way. People get frustrated because they sit around waiting and wondering what the heck's going on. So I think just spending a little bit of time defining everything in your hospital, because every hospital's different." #Amplefi #DigitalHealth #PatientExperience #HealthcareInnovation #ConnectedHealth #PrecisionMedicine #HealthcareOperations #WorkflowDesign#OperationalExcellence #HealthcareSystems #FixTheProcess #BeforeCareBreaks #StructureMatters #ProcessOverTools #StopScalingChaos #HealthcareOperations #HospitalWorkflow #ClinicianBurnout #HealthSystems #AIinHealthcare #Telehealth #CareCoordination amplefi.com Listen to the podcast here

Too often, feedback shows up late, feels vague, or never arrives at all, especially for the everyday teaching that happens on shift, in the hallway, or at the bedside. Adam speaks with Dr. Esther Bui about why that gap persists, and what it might look like to close it. Esther shares what led her team to build myTE, an app-based tool designed to capture in-the-moment teaching feedback. Together, they explore what traditional evaluation systems tend to miss, why authentic quality feedback is so important, and how trust and psychological safety shape the experience.  Length of Episode: 30:27 Resources to check out:  Halani S, Kumar SS, Lim DY, Hefferon D, Prakash V, Kumagai AK, Bui E.

The job of scientists is a tough one - to take complex, multifaceted, messy concepts, and do their best to simplify them in a way that is understandable and digestible to the general public. However, today's guest, Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett,  warns that if something is too simple, we probably shouldn't believe it.  Especially when it comes to human behavior and emotions, there's nothing simple about it - because variation is the norm - not averages.  And in today's episode, Dr. Barrett explains exactly why that is and how it should change the way we view and approach our interactions. Dr. Barrett is among the top 1% most cited scientists in the world for her revolutionary research in psychology and neuroscience. She is a University Distinguished Professor of Psychology at Northeastern University, and she holds appointments at Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital, where she serves as Chief Science Officer for the Center of Law, Brain and Behavior. In addition to the books 7 ½ Lessons About the Brain and How Emotions Are Made, Dr. Barrett has published over 260 peer reviewed scientific papers. Not only do we dive into the scientific research that disproves the way many of us have been led to view emotions, Dr. Barrett also does a phenomenal job of speaking to these concepts in a way that helps us apply it to our daily lives. Specifically, we address “The Great Man Theory” - why there is no one-size fits all approach to emotions and what they mean How understanding emotional constructs on a deeper level can make people more adept at navigating social situations The physiological and psychological processes of how we give meaning to our emotions Specific instances where knowing this information can directly influence life outcomes for you and those you impact daily Referenced Resources: Website: Lisafeldmanbarrett.com Book: How Emotions Are Made Book:  7 ½ Lessons About the Brain  TED Talk: You Aren't At the Mercy of Your Emotions Research Article: Knowing what you're feeling and knowing what to do about it   Resources & Links: Art of Coaching for coaching programs and resources: https://artofcoaching.com/mentoring My Latest Book (Link to upcoming or referenced publication): https://amzn.to/4rZknhs Connect with Brett Bartholomew: LinkedIn Twitter   Follow Us: Website: ArtofCoaching.com Instagram: @coach_brettb X: @coach_brettb

Today, I'm honored to welcome Bill Bengen to the podcast. Bill is widely known as the father of the 4% Rule and as one of the most influential retirement-income researchers in history. His groundbreaking research transformed the way financial advisors and retirees think about generating sustainable income in retirement, and his work continues to shape retirement planning decades after its initial publication. Over the past 30 years, Bill has studied hundreds of historical retirement scenarios to better understand how retirees can spend confidently without the fear of running out of money. In his latest book, A Richer Retirement: Supercharging the 4% Rule to Spend More and Enjoy More, he challenges many assumptions people have about retirement spending and financial security. In our conversation, Bill addresses one of the biggest misconceptions about the 4% Rule, which was never intended to be a spending target for everyone, why inflation remains the greatest threat to retirement income, and how market valuations impact sustainable withdrawal rates. Bill also shares his views on diversification, annuities, retirement spending, and the common reasons retirees continue to underspend despite having more than enough.

How market valuations influence sustainable withdrawal rates and retirement income planning. Why many retirees could safely spend more than they currently believe. Why planning horizons should extend well beyond your projected life expectancy. Show Notes: HowardBailey.com/569

Beth Osborne has watched the same story play out five times: a new federal transportation bill arrives with big language about goals and accountability, states adopt the right words, and nothing changes. Osborne, who led Transportation for America and worked inside USDOT, has been through five federal transportation reauthorizations, watched reform language get adopted and neutralized every single time, and arrived at a conclusion that would have surprised her younger self. Recorded at the Strong Towns National Gathering in Fayetteville, Arkansas, this conversation with Chuck Marohn digs into the gap between what the federal transportation program claims to do and what it actually delivers — on safety, on repair, on congestion, on emissions — and whether there's any version of federal involvement worth keeping.

Potatoes are having a moment. Once dismissed as dull, stodgy or even unhealthy, they are now back, appearing on restaurant menus, in food magazines and across social media feeds. But the story of the potato goes back much further. Ruth Alexander traces the journey of one of the world's most familiar foods. From its origins millions of years ago to its place in today's global food system. AJ Shehata, senior sous chef at Fallow restaurant in London explains why the potato forces chefs to get creative. At the Natural History Museum, botanist Sandy Knapp explains how the potato may have been born from a chance encounter between two wild plants in the Andes, an event that made it possible for potatoes to grow underground and spread across new environments. Potatoes USA president Blair Richardson explains how demand continues to grow worldwide, and how the industry is working to reshape the potato's image. Nutrition scientist Candida Rebello shares research suggesting potatoes may be far more beneficial, and more misunderstood, than many people think. And, at the International Potato Centre in Peru, scientist Julian Soto works with farmers to conserve thousands of native potato varieties. In the Andes, potatoes are not just a crop, they are part of culture, identity and family life.
