On today's episode, we're joined by Tom McNeill and Donald Kalfen, both Partners at Meridian Compensation Partners, LLC. They explore the strategic importance of engaging with shareholders on executive pay, highlighting best practices for proactive and reactive engagement.Key Takeaways: (03:46) Most large public companies engage with shareholders regularly, often well before proxy season.(06:06) Engagements often occur in late summer and fall when proxy advisors and shareholders are most receptive.(06:53) Ongoing dialogue with shareholders is crucial for building trust and addressing concerns proactively.(08:10) The compensation committee chair or a non-executive chair typically participates in engagements.(09:17) Proxy solicitors and investor relations teams play key roles in arranging discussions.(11:25) Robust proxy disclosure improves transparency, including details on the nature and outcomes of shareholder engagements.(13:00) Companies receiving less than 70% approval on say on pay votes should engage with shareholders to address concerns.(13:31) Companies must avoid disclosing material non-public information to individual shareholders during engagements.(15:22) Consult counsel and take their advice on proper methods to reveal material non-public information.

See all the Healthcasts at https://www.biobalancehealth.com/healthcast-blog Do you ache all over? Are you weaker every year? Shorter and more bent over? Are your clothes hanging off your shoulders? Do you walk slower and hold on to things as you walk? If you notice these signs in yourself or someone you love it means you, or they are becoming frail. As a physician I had to become a people watcher…. or more accurately an observer of the people around me. Even if you aren't medical people, I am sure many of you are as well…. but being very observant is a requirement for a physician because there are many signs of illness that can be observed just from observing a patient who we I am treating. I always pay attention to how the patient I am consulting with walks, shakes my hand (their strength), and how well they care for themselves, the quality of their speech, whether they look well nourished, over-nourished or frail. All of these individual observations and more, become automatic to me as a doctor. They help me diagnose and treat my patients without a stethoscope or even an x-ray… Today I want to talk about frailty, what it is, and what it means to your doctor and you as a patient. Frailty can be defined as the visible qualities of loss of muscle mass, bone mass, energy, as and strength, as well as thinning of the skin, kyphosis of the spine (standing with your head looking down and your shoulders rounded), slow movements, weakness of strength and voice. Frailty is the visible sign of aging. The opposite of Frailty is the Quality of being robust. When we are young we are strong, energetic, our muscles are visible, our skin is clear and taught, our posture is straight and we appear healthy and strong….when we are young we are Robust! Frailty is the quality of being old and weak, in a catabolic state (or a state of tissue breakdown and “shrinking”). You can equate Frailty with aging, or physically being old. What does frailty mean to a doctor? When we take care of a patient who comes to us for the first time in a frail state we rule in or out a list of diseases of aging and physical problems. These include: Arthritis Osteoporosis Sarcopenia or severe loss of muscle mass and strength Inflammatory diseases like arthritis Heart disease Diabetes Dementia Inability to be independent Doctors must look for illness and decide on a treatment to remedy a disease, but frailty is not considered a disease that has a treatment. It is a sign that a patient is going through the last stage of life. Many studies have been done that equate frailty to a limited life span and a loss of quality of life, but no treatment has been employed by mainstream medicine to delay, avoid or treat frailty. Up to now this is all very depressing, however it is my well founded belief that the loss of testosterone after age 45 in women and 55 in men is the first step toward frailty, however if adequate testosterone is replaced soon after the symptoms of T deficiency starts, then frailty can be avoided as we age, and the eventuality of loss of quality of life will be delayed or avoided all together. It is a fact that nothing other than the hormone testosterone can reverse frailty and stop it from progressing. With T treatment my patients increase their muscle mass, create stronger muscles, and improved their mental and physical stamina. To me this is such an easy one-hormone-answer to actually improve my patients lives, at any stage in the aging process, however the pharmaceutical companies that control American medicine much prefer to treat each symptom with a different drug. There are millions of aging folks in nursing homes who could have maintained their independence, and avoided the use of many drugs if they were treated with testosterone before their frailty reduced their mobility so they need help to perform daily activities of living independently. Sadly, medicine in the US basically gives up on frail and aging patients and we doctors are taught to make frail patients “comfortable”, just treating their symptoms without hope of reversing frailty and the outcomes of that condition. Of course, it is much healthier to prevent frailty by replacing the essential hormone testosterone early on, however your doctor will have to think out of the box to arrive at the Testosterone treatment, rather than follow the medical protocols that involve just keeping aging patients “comfortable”. Research studies and articles to be read by doctors like the recent one in the New England Journal of Medicine that draws a direct line between aging and frailty, but only concentrates on the fact that frailty portends early death and discussed the best ways to make patients comfortable dictated by the severity of frailty. There is no treatment other than high protein diet and vitamins with physical therapy which will not “treat” this disease. I want to tell you about two very different patients in my practice. The first is a very successful man in his late 70s who came to me seeking weight loss because he had been an athlete and still enjoyed playing golf, but he was complaining of weakness and other symptoms of frailty, in addition to looking borderline frail when he first came to me. We did a body composition test, and he had a higher fat mass and a lower that ideal muscle mass which is the way frailty begins. We discussed the fact that weight loss (fat loss) obtained by more exercise and less carbohydrate in his diet might improve his Pre-diabetes and inflammation, but would not make him stronger, or increase his physical and mental stamina, in other words reverse his beginning frailty. He chose to embark on an exercise-based weight loss program combined with a high protein low carb diet. In the end he did not take my advice about the best way to lose weight without losing muscle which would have been to add Testosterone and Metformin to his treatment plan, however he wanted to be the one directing his own care (he was a business man and not a doctor) without a basic knowledge of physiology, or nutrition, or any training about aging and frailty. Let me note that if he was younger than 55, and he tried this weight loss program while he was making adequate Testosterone, he might have had a successful fat loss program and gained muscle density and strength while he lost fat, however, this gentleman is 78. You can guess the end of the story. He did lose weight, however he lost as much muscle as fat and was even weaker after 6 months. This is sometimes what happens when very successful people in one area of life think that makes them brilliant in all disciplines. Now, the flipside of the coin. I will tell you about an 82-year-old doctor who came to me almost too late. His much younger wife was already my patient, and she encouraged him to have a consult with me to see what I could do for him. He had the right attitude, but was already frail, and I could feel the humorous bone of his arm, when I ushered his into my office for his consultation. I explained what observing him and his lab told me more while he told me that he had almost every symptom of aging, and frailty. He told me that he was an athlete in college and that he always had a lot of muscle, and he watched every day as his muscles “melted away”, despite his exercise daily. He was frustrated and had trouble with his memory as well because he had lost his testosterone long ago and he had done well for as long as he had because he had eaten a nutritious diet, taken supplements and worked out daily. We discussed his other medical problems, and some treatments for them, additional supplements to assist in building muscle and bone strength. He came back 5 months later after he had his T pellets inserted and he walked in with confidence, and the difference in his muscle mass was visible! He was no longer “frail looking”. He told me he was thinking better, not completely yet, but his mind was getting progressively better. He had lost fat and gained muscle. He had turned the clock back 15 or more years. Testosterone in the right dose and delivery system can erase frailty and give a quality of life back to my patients who had no help from other doctors. Look around you if you aren't yet at the age that carries with it frailty or if you are without Testosterone and are experiencing frailty…look at those around you in the doctor's office or when you are waiting to board a plane…look at the pre-borders who can't walk the length of the ramp to the airplane and see if they have the visible characteristics I am talking about. If you are over 45 and female or 55 and male and not on Testosterone maybe you should consider having your testosterone replaced so you can keep your muscle mass and independence as long as you live.
It's The Ranch It Up Radio Show! Join me Jeff Tigger Erhardt, Rebecca Wanner AKA BEC and my crew as we hear how Angus, Red Angus, Smokey and Buff colored calves all can receive the same premium. Plus news, markets and a whole lot of the cow stuff that you will only get on this all new episode of The Ranch It Up Radio Show.

Season 5, EPISODE 231 Sustainable Beef: A Processing Plant Where Color Doesn't Matter New Beef Processing Plant With Competitive Fed Cattle Grid Premiums The Red Angus Association of America (RAAA) recently showcased an innovative fed cattle grid pricing system at the NCBA Trade Show. This system, adopted by Sustainable Beef LLC, is set to transform the industry by offering competitive premiums for upper two-thirds Choice carcasses, regardless of hide color. Angus, Red Angus & Charolais Cross Cattle Receive Same Premium Tom Brink, RAAA CEO, announced that Sustainable Beef LLC, opening in April 2025 in North Platte, Nebraska, will implement a color-blind grid system, equally rewarding Red Angus, Black Angus, and smoky cattle. “This system levels the feeder calf market, allowing feedlots to confidently invest in Red Angus and black-hided cattle, knowing both will qualify for top premiums,” Brink said. Kelly Smith, RAAA Director of Commercial Marketing, emphasized RAAA's efforts to connect Red Angus producers with feedlots through its feeder cattle network. He highlighted that FCCP-tagged cattle will meet the Angus label's genetic verification standards, ensuring seamless access to premium marketing opportunities. Mark Nelson, Sustainable Beef's Director of Cattle Procurement, reinforced the company's commitment to sustainability and producer profitability. Sustainable Beef will provide an exceptional work environment and favor moderate carcass sizes, which naturally benefits Red Angus genetics. The RAAA-Sustainable Beef collaboration represents a significant step forward in ensuring equitable market opportunities for all quality cattle. This initiative will drive profitability for producers while delivering high-quality beef to consumers. For more details, visit RedAngus.org. Cattle Industry News JBS Sees Strong Demand Despite Challenges In The U.S. Cattle Cycle According to JBS executives, JBS expects a more challenging US cattle supply scenario in 2025 compared to last year, when strong beef consumption and initiatives to improve commercial and operational efficiencies contributed to the performance of the US beef business unit. Executives commented saying that the U.S. cattle cycle will likely be more challenging this year, regardless of the speed of herd replacement, specifically saying that JBS Beef North America's margins still have room to improve by 1% to 1.5% in 2025 due to the company's initiatives to improve commercial and operational efficiencies. Robust demand continues to support the company's investments in expanding its US meat processing and prepared food facilities. In February, JBS announced $200 million in investments to expand its beef production facilities in Cactus, Texas, and Greeley, Colo. In the other regions where JBS operates, demand for all animal proteins also remains strong.

Hva synes toppledere vi burde snakke mer om – og hvorfor det? Hva driver dem og hva mener de må til for å lykkes på sine områder? Hva gjør de selv? Lytt til samtalen mellom: Elisabeth Vike Vardheim, konsernsjef, Statnett Mette Vågnes Eriksen, generalsekretær, Polyteknisk Forening I denne episoden lærer du om hvor viktig et robust kraftsystem er, og hvordan Statnett jobber for å få mer ut av dagens nett, få bygget mer nett og sikre beredskap i nettet. Konkrete eksempler på prosjekter som monner, som automatisk balansering av kraftsystemet og innovasjon for økt kapasitet og fleksibilitet, får du også kunnskap om. Du lærer om samspillet mellom teknologi og fagfolk for å unngå strømbrudd, og vi diskuterer hva krig i Europa og klimaendringer betyr for den langsiktige utviklingen av kraftsystemet. Du hører også om hvor spennende det er å jobbe med blodårene i samfunnet vårt. Du blir kjent med en toppleder som er et JA-menneske, i betydningen av å takke ja til muligheter, feie for egen dør som en selvfølge og si ja til å samarbeide på tvers av bransjer, land og med forskningspartnere. Hun skryter av en aktiv fritid, men vi mistenker at det ikke er så mye fritid for en som brenner for å løse viktige samfunnsoppdrag. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Zinnwald Lithium PLC (LSE:ZNWD, OTC:ZNWLF) chief executive Anton du Plessis talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's recently published pre-feasibility study (PFS) for its Zinnwald Lithium Project, located in Saxony, Germany. The project is designed to supply battery-grade lithium hydroxide to the European market and has now received public backing from the Saxony government. Du Plessis outlined that the PFS demonstrates a scalable, long-life mining operation, starting with 18,000 tonnes per annum of lithium hydroxide and potentially scaling to 35,000 tonnes in a second phase. He stated, “We published our PFS on Monday that showed an economic project of significant scale… a globally significant project in terms of scale.” The economics were highlighted as robust, with a post-tax NPV of €2.20 billion and an internal rate of return of approximately 20%. The location of the project — 35km south of Dresden — positions it strategically at the heart of Germany and the EU, aligning with Europe's push for regional supply chains of critical raw materials. Du Plessis also emphasised the importance of the local endorsement, noting, “To have the public endorsement, as we had, is extremely important to us.” The next step for the company is to optimise the project in preparation for a Definitive Feasibility Study, expected in 2026.

#96 ROBUST SAMHÄLLE & LEVANDE LANDSBYGD - Framtagandet av en ny översiktsplan för Ronneby kommun Stadsarkitekt Helena Revelj och planarkitekt Hanna Farming berättar om arbetet med ny översiktsplan för Ronneby kommun. En översiktsplan är ett långsiktig och strategiskt dokument som visar visonen för kommunens utveckling. Här tittar man på den framtida användningen av kommunens mark- och vattenområden med särskild hänsyn till vad som bör värnas. Deras nio fokusområden är robust samhälle, levande landsbygder, hög livskvalité, ett inkluderande samhälle, hållbar bebyggelseutveckling, kokurrenskraft och tillväxt, effektiva infrastruktur, livskraftig natur och höga upplevelsevärden. Fokusområden är framtagna i samarbete med tjänstepersoner, politiker och i dialog med allmänheten. Den nya översiktsplanen är digital och blir därför mer lättillgänglig, flexibel för framtida utmaningar och underlättar ett kontinuerligt arbete och komplettering med detaljplaner. Lyssna till vad invånarna värderar högst i kommunen, vad ungdomarna tycker, om livetperspektivet kring boende, vilka som är huvuddragen i framtida utbyggnadsstråk, användning och utveckling av befintliga och gemensamma miljöer och hur klimatanpassningsplan har seglat upp som mer akut.

Of the two biggest problems quantitative traders probably face, the first is over-optimization and the second is likely finding inspiration for new ideas. In-depth interviews with market wizards surely has to be one of the best ways to learn quickly, avoid common pitfalls and find untold amounts of inspiration hidden between the lines. Listening to experts that have been at it for decades, for me anyway, is an incredible education. In this show I invite you to again spend over an hour with Bob Pardo on the ins and outs of his trading, his philosophy and his edge. And the best bit is, this is just part 1 of 2. In the second part I'm going to deep-dive walk forward analysis with him and I'm sure I'll be walking away with some highly practical tips and tricks. Bob's career spans several decades of evolving market dynamics, groundbreaking system development, and a philosophy rooted in adaptability and robustness. His journey—from early days on the trading floor to pioneering walk forward analysis and working with the likes of Solomon Brothers, Dunn Capital, Daiwa Securities & Goldman Sachs—offers a compelling narrative for quantitative traders seeking both inspiration and technical insights.Intra-day Futures Traders and others - grab a chamomile tea and enjoy!www.thealgorithmicadvantage.com for contacts and more.

In this episode of the Epigenetics Podcast, we talked with Viviana Risca from Rockefeller University about her work on RICC-Seq and how it's used to probe DNA-DNA contacts in intact or fixed cells using ionizing radiation. This Interview covers Dr. Viviana Risca's cutting-edge methodologies, such as RICC-seq, which enables high-resolution analysis of chromatin structures without traditional cross-linking biases. We engage in a detailed discussion about how different techniques, such as RICC-seq and Micro-C, complement each other to provide robust insights into nucleosome interactions and chromatin dynamics. Dr. Risca articulates the challenges and innovations within her lab as it navigates through the complexities of chromatin mapping. The episode takes an exciting turn toward traversing the landscape of her future research directions, particularly studying the role of linker histones and other chromatin architectural proteins in regulating gene expression. Dr. Risca emphasizes the importance of understanding chromatin's mechanical properties and how these influence cellular processes like transcriptional regulation, DNA replication, and cellular responses to damage. We also explore her collaborative work that bridges the gap between basic research and clinical applications, particularly in cancer therapy. Dr. Risca shares insights into her investigations into how chromatin dynamics change during cell cycle arrest and their implications for cancer therapy resistance. Our discussion culminates in her reflections on the definition of epigenetics, framing it as the exploration of how cellular mechanisms encode and process information.

BUFFALO, NY - February 24, 2025 – A new #research paper was #published in Oncotarget, Volume 16, on February 18, 2025, titled “Robust p53 phenotypes and prospective downstream targets in telomerase-immortalized human cells." Researchers Jessica J. Miciak, Lucy Petrova, Rhythm Sajwan, Aditya Pandya, Mikayla Deckard, Andrew J. Munoz, and Fred Bunz from the Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center and Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine studied the tumor-suppressing protein p53, which plays a key role in preventing cancer. Their findings reveal how p53 affects cancer cell growth, treatment resistance, and potential drug targets, providing new insights that could improve future cancer therapies. The p53 protein plays a crucial role in preventing cancer by stopping uncontrolled cell growth. However, many cancers mutate or suppress p53, allowing tumors to develop and resist treatment. In this study, researchers restored p53 function in colorectal cancer cells, which led to slower cellular growth, increased cellular aging (senescence), and greater sensitivity to radiation therapy. These findings suggest that p53 status influences cancer progression and response to treatment, making it a promising target for new therapies. The study also examined hTERT-RPE1 cells; a type of non-cancerous human cell used in research. When the TP53 gene was disrupted in these cells, they grew faster and became more resistant to radiation, reinforcing the idea that p53 helps prevent cancerous growth. Another key discovery was a previously unnoticed p53 mutation (A276P) found in a subset of hTERT-RPE1 cells. This mutation weakened p53's ability to regulate certain genes but did not affect its ability to control calcium signaling, a process important for cell survival. The unexpected appearance of this mutation suggests that even non-cancerous cells can acquire genetic changes that mimic early cancer development. This insight could help scientists better understand how cancers evolve and become resistant to treatment. "Cancers that retain wild type TP53 presumably harbor other clonal alterations that permitted their precursors to bypass p53-mediated growth suppression." A breakthrough in the study was the identification of two new p53-regulated genes that could be important for cancer treatment. The first, ALDH3A1, helps detoxify harmful substances and may impact cancer cell resistance to oxidative stress. The second, NECTIN4, is a protein found in many aggressive cancers, including bladder and breast cancer. Notably, NECTIN4 is the target of enfortumab vedotin, an FDA-approved drug for bladder cancer. These discoveries provide new potential drug targets and could lead to improved therapies for cancers that still retain some p53 function. In conclusion, this research highlights the critical role of p53 in cancer biology and suggests that restoring p53 function could make tumors more vulnerable to radiation and chemotherapy. The discovery of new p53-controlled genes provides new opportunities for targeted cancer therapies. With further research, these findings could lead to new precision medicine strategies that leverage p53's natural tumor-suppressing abilities.

China's latest push to bolster the growth of its private economy is expected to shore up business confidence, stabilize market expectations and revitalize the growth of the world's second-largest economy amid challenges and external uncertainties, said experts and company executives.They noted that the country has sent a clear signal that it is dedicated to boosting the high-quality development of the private economy through rolling out targeted measures to deal with the difficulties and issues faced by private enterprises.Their comments came as President Xi Jinping attended a symposium on Monday on private enterprises in Beijing and delivered an important speech, after listening to representatives of private entrepreneurs.Zhou Maohua, an analyst at China Everbright Bank, said: "The private sector is a vital force in advancing Chinese modernization, and it plays an increasingly significant role in stabilizing economic growth, expanding employment and bolstering technological innovation."Zhou said that a series of supportive measures, which have been introduced to tackle prominent problems facing private enterprises and to improve the business environment, are crucial for boosting confidence and stabilizing the expectations of private enterprises and entrepreneurs, and this will further consolidate the economic recovery trend.He noted that the country's ongoing efforts to promote the healthy development of the private sector will be conducive to creating a more stable, transparent and predictable business environment, motivating private enterprises to beef up investment in research and development, and achieving technological breakthroughs, as well as further stimulating the vitality of the private economy, he added.Liu Dian, a researcher at Fudan University's China Institute, said President Xi's meeting with private entrepreneurs sent a strong signal to the outside world that China attaches great significance to the private economy and is committed to bolstering its high-quality development.He said it is advisable for the government to guide financial institutions to innovate financial products and services, enhance support for boosting technological innovations by private enterprises, encourage private companies' collaboration with universities and research institutions, and accelerate the legislative process for a law to promote development of the private economy.Looking ahead, he said that the country will likely introduce more supportive measures, including further optimizing the business environment, promoting innovative development and fostering fair competition. Specifically, Liu said he expects to see further moves to improve the fiscal, tax and financial policy systems and address the practical difficulties and issues facing private companies.Key driving forcePrivate companies, a key driving force behind China's economic ascent over the past decades, contribute more than 60 percent of gross domestic product, 70 percent of technological innovation and 80 percent of urban employment, official data show.Entrepreneurs hailed the raft of policy measures on boosting support for the private sector, and expressed strong confidence in its future growth.Qi Xiangdong, chairman of cybersecurity company Qi-Anxin Technology Group, who attended the symposium, said in an earlier interview with China Daily that private enterprises have played a significant role in promoting scientific and technological innovation, and fostering the development of new quality productive forces.Qi said they should strive to explore new business models and management methods and bolster the application of technologies, and he emphasized that his company will step up original and pioneering sci-tech innovation, and reinforce fundamental research in artificial intelligence to promote industrial upgrading.Lei Jun, founder, chairman and CEO of China's homegrown tech giant Xiaomi Corp, told China Daily in an earlier interview that the country's moves, such as supporting technological innovation in the private sector and accelerating digital transformation, have boosted the company's confidence and expectations, and it will continue to develop its main business and contribute to the development of the real economy.Wang Peng, an associate research fellow at the Beijing Academy of Social Sciences, said that the private economy is playing a pivotal role in supporting China's overall economic development.Looking forward, Wang said a multipronged approach is needed to address issues faced by private companies, such as expanding financing channels for private enterprises and reducing financing costs, as well as intensifying efforts to further cut taxes and fees in order to lower operational costs.bolster /ˈboʊlstər/ (v.) 支持,增强revitalize /riˈvaɪtəlaɪz/ (v.) 振兴,使恢复生机pivotal /ˈpɪvətl/ (adj.) 关键的,核心的predictable /prɪˈdɪktəbl/ (adj.) 可预测的,可预见的consolidate /kənˈsɑːlɪdeɪt/ (v.) 巩固,加强legislative /ˈledʒɪsleɪtɪv/ (adj.) 立法的,法律制定的

Beginnings of Prayer – Part 5: Start Now and Improve Your Prayer Life -- A Robust Prayer Life Will Transform Your Life MESSAGE SUMMARY: INTRODUCTIOIN -- Prayer is: 1) spending time with God – acknowledging God's presence in all our lives' activities; and 2) conversation with God – listening to and talking with God. Prayer reflects on our relationship with God. Why don't we pray. The Apostle James, in James 4:2-3, provides a perspective regarding Prayer Life: “You desire and do not have, so you murder. You covet and cannot obtain, so you fight and quarrel. You do not have, because you do not ask. You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions." In praying, we should know the difference between prayers of "petition" (praying for one's own needs) and prayers of "intercession" (praying for the needs of others). God wants prayers of "petition" from us -- all our needs and concerns should be brought to Him in prayer because He loves and cares for us. However, God want us to, also, focus on others and their needs (intercession) -- physical and spiritual. "Intercessory prayer” is fundamental to deepening our prayer life and our personal relationship with God. SUNDAY MESSAGE -- This Sermon is Q and A session on prayer with Archbishop Beach and Rev. Matt Jordan. Jan Karen, author of the Mitford Series, says that "In the big issues of life as well as the small, God wants to hear from His children . . . the most important thing we get from prayer is the relationship that we enter into with God.". As Jesus tells us in Luke 11:9-10 that, as His followers we are both expected to pray and to ask as a fundamental part of our lives in Him: “And I tell you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened.". Additionally, Luke tells us, in Luke 18:1, that we should continue to pray: “And he told them a parable to the effect that they ought always to pray and not lose heart." How do you know that God has answered your prayer? What does it mean when God has not answered your prayer? Why, if God answers our prayers, should we ask for others to pray for us? How do we know if we are praying in the Holy Spirit? Why does my mind start wandering when I start praying? How good is it to have a prayer journal? Why, sometimes, are we tempted to sin when we pray? How important is fasting? Do we stop in our prayers enough to give thanks to the Lord? The common position, derivative of all these questions is expressed to us in Ephesians 3:21b-24 that prayer is life changing and fundamental to a life in Jesus: “the truth is in Jesus, to put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires, and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.". Pray specific prayers, in the Holy Spirit and in Scripture, for ourselves and for others -- be persistent. TODAY'S PRAYER: Keeping the Sabbath, Lord, will require a lot of changes in the way I am living life. Teach me, Lord, how to take the next step with this in a way that fits my unique personality and situation. Help me to trust you with all that will remain unfinished and to enjoy my humble place in your very large world. In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 129). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: I affirm that because of what God has done for me in His Son, Jesus, I AM A FORGIVEN. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. (1 John 1:9).

In this discussion, we dissect various models of safety culture, scrutinizing how organizations perceive, measure, and manage these concepts. From artifacts like management systems to individual attitudes and behaviors, we delve into the inconsistencies and challenges of these models. We also revisit historical perspectives, such as Dov Zohar's work, to understand their influence on contemporary safety paradigms. Our conversation critically examines the missteps of industries like nuclear and aviation, which have mandated the management of ambiguous concepts without solid scientific grounding. We advocate for a shift from vague cultural mandates to actionable strategies, offering insights into enhancing clarity and effectiveness in both regulatory practices and organizational improvements. This episode aims to inspire a reevaluation of safety culture, pushing for a more scientifically grounded and practical approach to safety science. Some highlights from the paper:Safety culture as a concept is examined from scientific and pragmatic perspectives.The case is made for the removal of safety culture from the safety science lexicon.Much safety culture research is vulnerable to a fallacy of logic – we should not take a selection of parts to equal the whole.Robust research of the various individual ‘elements' of safety culture, in methodologically appropriate ways, will enhance the field of safety science and better support improvements in practice.

The convergence of ketamine therapy and executive coaching is an innovative approach to personal and professional growth, drawing from neuroscience, psychology, and leadership development. Ketamine for Mental Flexibility and Adaptability Ketamine, traditionally used as an anesthetic, has gained recognition for its potential to enhance mental flexibility. By fostering neuroplasticity—the brain's ability to reorganize and form new neural connections—ketamine facilitates adaptability and learning. Dr. Paulus emphasizes that in the 21st century, the greatest skill lies in learning, unlearning, and relearning. This aligns with modern leadership needs for quick pivots and creative problem-solving. Executive coaching also aims to build resilience and maintain a growth mindset. Ketamine therapy can complement this by fostering openness and suggestibility. When used responsibly, ketamine can help executives access deeper self-awareness and overcome limiting beliefs. However, the heightened suggestibility requires careful guidance to ensure beneficial outcomes. Integrating Tradition and Modern Practices Psychedelic compounds like ketamine have roots in ancient practices for communal healing and spiritual growth. Dr. Paulus emphasizes the importance of carefully integrating these traditions into modern therapy, tailoring interventions to individual histories and needs. This approach is already in use at his clinic, which combines traditional and non-pharmacological methods such as neurofeedback. Ethical Considerations and Practical Applications The use of ketamine in executive coaching raises ethical questions. Robust frameworks are needed to guide its application. This includes assessing the intentions of those administering ketamine and ensuring a supportive environment. Transparency and collaboration between medical professionals and coaches are crucial for responsible use. Ketamine sessions can help leaders overcome burnout, anxiety, and rigid thought patterns, promoting clarity. This can also enhance creativity by opening critical learning periods in the brain. The combination of coaching and therapy can deepen self-awareness and empathy, important for effective leadership. Individualized approaches, such as combining ketamine with journaling or mindfulness, enhance the integration of insights. The convergence of ketamine therapy and executive coaching offers a promising path for cultivating resilience and adaptability. In this podcast you will learn: Ketamine's ability to promote neuroplasticity which helps with adaptability and learning How ketamine can foster openness and suggestibility, aiding in self-awareness. The integration of ancient traditions with modern therapeutic frameworks Key ethical considerations for ketamine use in executive coaching How ketamine sessions help leaders overcome burnout, anxiety, and rigid thought patterns Combining ketamine with journaling or mindfulness enhances integration of insights EPISODE RESOURCES: Website
