"You might think, 'On the other side of this, if I'm not even guaranteed better performance, Why would I do it?' That comes down to our values," shares Lane 9 co-founder, and dietitian, Heather Caplan. This Q&A episode tackles two questions: Is it possible to be 'healthy' even with extremely irregular periods or absent periods, if everything else is going well? Will I recover from REDs and get faster? What if I get slower, or get injured? Have your own question to submit to Lane 9 for a future episode or resource? We'd love to hear them!

GM will take a $1.6 billion charge on its EV business after scaling back production plans and delaying launches, reflecting lower-than-expected consumer demand and rising costs.https://wilwaldon.com

In this episode, Gina is joined by Naturopathic Doctor Paul Hrkal for a straight-up conversation about why the scale might not be moving—even when you're doing all the things. It's Week 5 of the program, a pivotal point where most people start to see movement, but for those who don't, there could be deeper reasons. Together, they unpack four major culprits: inflammation, food sensitivities, gut health, and hormones (including menopause). Dr. Paul explains how these internal factors could be stalling your progress and what to look out for, from subtle signs to testable markers. Whether you're in your first round or have done the program before, this one's a must-listen if you feel stuck or suspect something more is going on behind the scenes.Where to find Dr. Paul:Instagram: @drpaulhrkalwww.paulhrkalnd.com If you are in the Fall 2025 Support Group, you can check out the full video here:www.facebook.com/groups/livymethodfall2025To learn more about The Livy Method, visit livymethod.com.

Listen now on Apple, Spotify, and YouTube.—John Fontenot has spent a decade in tech, working initially in software partnerships for Intel's Software and Services Group where he was first introduced to the role of product management. In 2018 John made a pivot into a role as a UX Researcher to get his foot in the door of a product team for a small HRTech SaaS company and hasn't looked back. John has worked in a variety of Sr. IC product manager roles, Director and Group Product Manager roles, and is now serving as VP of Product Management for Terlumina, an Enterprise SaaS startup focused on healthcare compliance management. John also runs a program called Path2Product where he helps aspiring PMs transition into their first product management role. John is a huge proponent and student of UX Research and truly believes that good product management can't be done well without it.In our conversation, we discuss:* What “scrappy” product research really means and when it crosses the line into chaos.* Why PMs can (and should) learn research basics when they don't have a dedicated partner.* How to build trust with researchers without stepping on their toes.* Creative recruitment strategies when incentives aren't an option—and what that reveals about product-market fit.* The case against paying customers for interviews, and how to make people want to talk to you.Some takeaways:* Scrappy research isn't an excuse to be sloppy. Scrappy doesn't mean fast for the sake of speed, it means smart, efficient, and focused on risk. John outlines how some decisions call for deep, strategic research, especially when millions are on the line, while others don't need to be tested to death. The key is knowing the stakes and picking the right level of investment. Scrappy research works best when it's intentional, not reactionary.* John shares creative ways to reach users without incentives, like turning idea boards into interview leads or mining Facebook groups and Slack communities for warm outreach. In regulated industries where payments aren't allowed, trust and thoughtful messaging become even more important. The best outreach comes from doing your homework, if you know what people care about, they'll usually talk. Payment can create a transactional mindset; genuine interest creates better conversations.* With researchers often outnumbered 10 to 1, it's unrealistic to gatekeep all research tasks. But that doesn't mean PMs or designers should bulldoze their way in. John advocates for shared ownership with clear boundaries, where non-researchers offer support, not competition, by helping with smaller usability tasks or contributing to recruitment. Trust is built by asking first, showing competence, and being open to feedback.* Recruitment speed isn't always the goal. Paying for participants might help with speed, but it can muddy your insight quality. If no one wants to talk about the feature you're testing, that might be a signal it's not worth building. Slower recruitment through organic methods forces you to get sharper on messaging, segmentation, and whether the problem actually matters.* John argues that researchers are most valuable when they go beyond testing buttons and start shaping product direction. Researchers who understand business priorities and speak the language of product are better able to influence decisions. Likewise, PMs who understand research can spot poor methods and ask sharper questions. Everyone benefits when the team invests in learning across roles and when researchers step confidently into strategic conversations.Where to find John:* Website* LinkedIn* Blog* Why you should never pay for customer interviewsStop piecing it together.

In a world that often rewards speed, performance, and perfection, what happens when we get gifted a moment to pause? Meet our guest this week on The Purpose Map™️ with Casey Berglund — Liana Grieg. Liana may joke about being in her “big country bumpkin era,” but beneath that playfulness lies a return to what matters — a reconnection in this slower season of life. As co-founder of Juno House Club in Barcelona, she's been part of building more than just a space — it's a sanctuary for women, weaving together wellness, creativity, and community. And now, her role is shifting. Her story isn't just about smoothie bowls, yoga, or the creation of Juno House Club. It's about the bigger evolution of entrepreneurship. About how food, philosophy, and the spaces we choose to belong to can transform not only our bodies and businesses, but our very way of being. In this conversation, we explore: How slow living, seasonal food, and homemade rituals support wellness and creativity The journey from competitive athletics to yoga, and what embodiment actually feels like The founding vision behind Juno House Club — and why feminine leadership looks different Why environment is everything — from nervous system safety to community connection What it really takes to grow a soul-aligned business (and life) without burning out This episode is a gentle yet potent reminder that the way we live, nourish ourselves, and create space — physically and energetically — matters. Liana's grounded wisdom and lived experience will leave you reflecting on your own rhythms, rituals, and what it means to belong. Take a moment, settle in, and enjoy this beautiful conversation.

Today on Inspire + Move, I was inspired by a recent energy healing session and the wave of emotions that followed hosting the fifth and final Women Inspiring Women event. In this episode I dive into the feeling of tension between staying in high-performance hustle mode, while knowing deep down that you need to slow down. I'm sharing what's on my heart as I navigate grief, growth, and the deep inner work of softening. From packed seasons, to quiet moments, I'm looking into what this next chapter is asking of me, and maybe you can find answers from this too!Tune in to hear more about:• Why embracing yin energy and slowing down is a powerful act of growth.• How grief and loss can open space for clarity, reflection, and new beginnings.• Creating non-negotiables in your routine while still making space for softness.• Practices I'm implementing to calm my nervous system and restore balance.Whether you're in a sprint season or being called to move slower, I hope this encourages you to check in with your energy, get honest about what you need, and give yourself grace to evolve. I would love to know how you are slowing down this season and what that looks like for you over on IG at @AlliArruda!Mentioned: Book: Inner Excellence by Jim Murphy https://amzn.to/3IXLKqJGut Personal Sleepy Mocktail: https://collabs.shop/geqrwuGloci link: https://getgloci.com Upcoming Events: GIRLFRIENDS WALKS are back!Next Walk:• Oakville, Monday October 6th!It's more than a walk—it's an opportunity to build authentic connections, meet like-minded women, and even spark collaborations or new business opportunities.

 Speed & EfficiencyAI Underwriting:Processes applications in seconds to minutes.1.Can instantly pull data from multiple sources (credit reports, bank statements, income verification, property valuations, etc.).Ideal for high-volume, standardized cases.Human Underwriter:Takes hours to days, depending on complexity.Manually reviews documents, contacts third parties, and applies professional judgment.Slower, especially for complex or edge cases.2. Data HandlingAI:Uses algorithms and machine learning to analyze massive datasets.Can detect patterns humans might miss (e.g., spending behavior, alternative data like utility payments, even digital footprints in some markets).Human:Relies on traditional documentation (pay stubs, tax returns, appraisals).Limited by human bandwidth—can't process as much raw data at once.3. Consistency & BiasAI:Decisions are consistent with its rules and training data.However, if the data it's trained on is biased, the system can replicate or even amplify those biases.Human:Brings subjective judgment. Can weigh special circumstances that don't fit a neat rule.Risk of inconsistency—two underwriters might interpret the same file differently.May have unconscious bias, but also flexibility to override rigid criteria.4. Risk AssessmentAI:Excels at quantifiable risks (credit scores, loan-to-value ratios, historical claim data).Weak at unstructured or nuanced factors (e.g., a borrower with an unusual income stream, or a claim with unclear circumstances).Human:Strong at contextual judgment—understanding unique borrower situations, exceptions, or “gray areas.”Can pick up on red flags that an algorithm might miss (e.g., forged documents, conflicting information).5. Regulation & AccountabilityAI:Regulators are still catching up. Requires transparency in decision-making (explainable AI).Hard to appeal an AI decision if it can't explain its reasoning clearly.Human:Provides a clear chain of accountability—borrower can request explanations or escalate.Easier for compliance teams to audit decision-making.6. Cost & ScalabilityAI:Scales cheaply—one system can process thousands of applications simultaneously.Lower ongoing labor costs once implemented.Human:Labor-intensive, costs grow with volume.Better suited for complex, high-value, or unusual cases rather than mass processing.✅ Bottom line:AI underwriting is best for speed, scale, and straightforward cases.Human underwriters are best for nuanced judgment, exceptions, and handling edge cases.Most modern institutions use a hybrid model: AI handles the bulk of simple files, while humans step in for complex or flagged cases.tune in and learn https://www.ddamortgage.com/blogdidier malagies nmls#212566dda mortgage nmls#324329 Support the show

A Clare architect claims the planning process is getting slower and says he doesn't believe bringing in new laws to tighten the judicial review process will act as a "panacea". It comes as Justice Minister Jim O'Callaghan has indicated he'll introduce new legislation to ensure those who make judicial reviews "have an actual interest in the process" and aren't halting developments to "suit their own agenda". A number of high-profile residential, commercial and infrastructural developments in Clare have been held up in recent years by lengthy appeals processes. Ogonnelloe-based architect Garry Miley insists a "root and branch" approach is required.

This week on the New Music Business podcast, Ari sits down with sisters Jahan and Yasmine Yousaf of the groundbreaking electronic duo, Krewella. Krewella has earned billions of streams, a devoted global fanbase, and a place among the first women in EDM to reach major milestones. Featured on Forbes' 30 Under 30 and performing at Coachella, Lollapalooza, EDC, Tomorrowland, and beyond, Krewella has left an undeniable mark on the scene. After time with Columbia Records and a brief hiatus, they've returned with a new single, “Crying on the Dancefloor.”Jahan and Yasmine dive deep into the business of music—covering collaborations, royalty splits, AI tools, and the ever-changing industry landscape. They reflect on how much has shifted over the past nine years, offering candid insights on balancing algorithm demands with authentic artistry. Most importantly, they share their perspective on staying true to yourself as an artist—creatively, spiritually, and personally—in an era of constant external pressure.https://www.instagram.com/krewella/04:37 – Intro06:31 – Slower, intentional process11:18 – Indie team setup13:49 – Indie vs. major19:35 – Grow vs. nurture fans, algorithms31:09 – song death/rebirth, reviving old songs 35:11 – Collabs & producer roles; splits45:05 – Remixes/AI/Splice; self-sampling1:01:05 – Live show: safe, sober, caring1:08:13 – Making itEdited and mixed by Peter SchruppMusic by Brassroots DistrictProduced by the team at Ari's TakeOrder the THIRD EDITION of How to Make It in the New Music Business: https://book.aristake.com Hosted on Acast.

She believes it opens more opportunities on the options front for Nvidia (NVDA). She talks about how the "slower" price action in the market leader shaped how trader utilize Nvidia options. Sticking with A.I., Danielle likes Broadcom (AVGO), saying its recent price action is a "great sign" for the long-term.

Crit Thomas, global market strategist at Touchstone Investments says the market can move higher — though with a path that is more bumpy — and the economy can avoid recession, but he also notes that the market is particularly hard to read because current conditions are dramatically different than many past situations. He cites a lot of reasons — from index concentration to fallout from the pandemic — for why looking back at market data seldom yields accurate forecasting right now. Thomas does expect a market slowdown, as earnings have been impressive but growth has been muted, which should make for slower markets ahead. Sarah Wolfe, senior economist and strategist for thematic and macro investing at Morgan Stanley Wealth Management — the chairperson of the Economic Policy Survey for the National Association for Business Economics — discusses the NABE survey released today, which showed a record number of economists view current economic policy as too stimulative. The economists viewed tariffs as the biggest long-term obstacle to growth  rather than a stimulator for economic activity, and they also see recession coming into focus in the long-term, noting that current conditions have backed off any downturn to where economists now don't expect to see one until late in 2026 or in 2027. Kyle Guske, investment analyst at New Constructs, puts Five9 back in the Danger Zone because the company has fallen back into the territory of a "zombie stock," effectively due to run out of money in the next two years. Guske makes a case that the stock — currently valued at roughly $28 a share — is worth maybe six bucks, though he makes it clear he could make a case for it to go to zero. Plus, Dan Skubiz, chief investment officer and senior portfolio manager at F/m Investments, talks small-cap stocks in the Money Life Market Call.

Apartment construction activity is shrinking, despite a recent housing report showing increased multifamily starts. After 2+ years of stagnant rent growth in the wake of a once-in-a-generation surge in apartment building, the multifamily market is on the edge of a shift towards a demand-driven market. Slower-moving investors are waiting for interest rate cuts to jump into the market, but in many midwestern markets (like Indianapolis) that have been the best-performing in recent years, forward-looking investors are investing with confidence.Link to sources discussed in this episode:CNBC: “When ‘invest like the 1%' fails: How Yieldstreet's real estate bets left customers with massive losses” - https://www.cnbc.com/2025/08/18/yieldstreet-real-estate-bets-customer-losses.htmlReuters: “US housing starts tick higher in July, led by apartment construction” - https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-housing-starts-tick-higher-july-led-by-apartment-construction-2025-08-19/RealPage: “Seven Markets with Deep Supply Drops in the Next Year” - https://www.realpage.com/analytics/supply-volumes-decline-markets/Newmark: “2Q25 U.S. Multifamily Capital Markets Report” - https://www.nmrk.com/insights/market-report/2q-2025-united-states-multifamily-capital-markets-reportLearn more about Gray Capital's latest multifamily investment opportunity: https://www.graycapitalllc.com/invest-in-flats Download Gray Capital's latest report: ⁠https://www.graycapitalllc.com/future Sign up for our free multifamily newsletter here: ⁠https://www.graycapitalllc.com/newsletter⁠ DISCLAIMERS: This video does not constitute professional financial advice and is for educational/entertainment purposes only.

"Slow down and enjoy life. It's not only the scenery you miss by going too fast - you also miss the sense of where you are going and why."  Eddie Cantor This week, I'm answering a question about why it's important to slow down and allow your brain to do what it does best and why you do not want to be competing with computers.  You can subscribe to this podcast on:  Podbean | Apple Podcasts | Stitcher | Spotify | TUNEIN Links: Email Me | Twitter | Facebook | Website | Linkedin The Time-Based Productivity Course Get Your Copy Of Your Time, Your Way: Time Well Managed, Life Well Lived The Time Sector System 5th Year Anniversary The Working With… Weekly Newsletter Carl Pullein Learning Centre Carl's YouTube Channel Carl Pullein Coaching Programmes Subscribe to my Substack  The Working With… Podcast Previous episodes page Script | 380 Hello, and welcome to episode 380 of the Your Time, Your Way Podcast. A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development, and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show. It's very easy to get caught up in the hype about AI and what it promises to do or can do for you.  And it is an exciting time. AI promises a lot, and our devices are becoming faster. Does this mean it's all good news? Well, maybe not. You see, while all this technology is becoming faster, our brains are not. Evolution takes time. We can still only process information at the same speed people did hundreds of years ago.  And it's causing us to take shortcuts. Shortcuts that may not necessarily be in our best interests.  Thirty years ago, people would buy a newspaper in the morning and that single newspaper would furnish us with analysis and news throughout the day.  I remember buying my newspaper from the newsagent outside the office I worked at in the morning. I would read that newspaper during my coffee breaks and lunch. I'd begin with the front page, then the sport on the back page and usually in the afternoon, I'd read the opinion pieces.  It was a daily ritual, and felt natural. I'd pay my fifty pence (around 75 cents) each morning and by the end of the day, I would feel I had got my money's worth.  I remember reading full articles, getting to know both sides of the argument and the nuances within each story.  Today, people are in such a rush, they rarely read a full article, and only get a snapshot of what's really going on. There are apps that will summarise documents, articles and important reports for you. But is this really good for you?  This is why over the last two years, I've been intentionally slowing down.  It began with bringing pens and paper back into my system, then going on to wearing an analogue watch instead of an Apple Watch. It's moved on to buying real books, and this year, reacquainting myself with the joys of ironing, cooking and polishing shoes.  And that brings me on to this week's question. So, that means it's time for me now to hand you over to the Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's question.  This week's question comes from Michael. Michael asks, Hi Carl, you've talked a lot about your pen and paper experiment and I was wondering why you are going against technology, when clearly that is the future. Hi Michael, thank you for your question.  I should begin by saying I am not against technology. I love technology. I still use Todoist and Evernote, and I use Anthropic's Claude most days. Technology is still a big part of my life.  However, I began my “analogue experiment”—if you can call it that—because I began to realise that trying to keep up with all the advances in technology meant I was missing out on life.  I had stopped thinking for myself and was looking for confirmation of the opinions I had formed about a subject. And technology does that extremely well. I remember during the last US Presidential election I was curious about what the arguments were about. I watched a few videos on YouTube from Fox News and MSNBC trying to maintain some kind of balance.  That didn't turn out so well. I must have accidentally watched a video or two more from Fox News and suddenly my YouTube feed was full of Greg Gutfeld and Meghan Kelly.  So much for trying to hear both sides of the argument.  It took over a month to get those videos out of my YouTube feed.  From a time management and productivity perspective I've always felt it's important that you decide what is important and what is not.  For most of you, you will have gained a few years experience in the work that you do. That experience is valuable. It gives you an advantage. You have learned what works and what does not work. Not in a theoretical way, but in a practical way.  Sales courses can teach the theory, but to become a great salesperson requires real, hands on experience. Talking with real people, dealing with objections and allowing your personality and charm to come through. You can't learn that from an online course or four hours chatting with an AI bot.  Henry Kissinger was a divisive figure. Some loved him, others hated him. Yet successive presidents both Republican and Democrat sort his advice long after he had left government. Why? Because of his vast personal experience dealing with dictators and uncompromising world leaders.  Now I understand why technology does this. Companies such as Google and the media organisations want my attention. Their algorithms are trained to do just that. And as a human being it's very difficult to resist.  But the biggest problem with this is everything is becoming faster and faster. So fast, that your brain cannot keep up.  Now there are things we should move fast on. An upset customer, a natural disaster in your town or city, A suddenly sick loved one or a burst pipe in your bathroom.  Equally, though, there are a lot of things we shouldn't be moving fast on. Deciding what must be done today, for example, sitting down and talking with your kids, or partner. Talking with your parents, siblings, friends or taking your dog out for a walk.  One work related example would be managing your email. There are two parts to this. Clearing your inbox requires speed. You're filtering out the unimportant from the important. And with experience, you soon become very fast at this.  Then there's the replying to the important emails. That requires you to slow down and think.  Now I know there are AI email apps that promise to do the filtering for you. Yet do you really trust that it got it right? That lack of trust results in you going through the AI filtered emails, “just in case”.  Which in turn slows down the processing. You would have been faster had you done it yourself.  But this goes beyond where AI and technology can help us. It goes to something deeper and more human.  One of the most mentally draining things you can do is sit at a screen all day.  You can respond to messages, write reports, design presentations, edit videos, and read the news all from a single screen. This means that, in theory, except for needing to go to the bathroom, you could spend all day and night without getting up from the chair.  That's not how you work. Your brain cannot stay focused for much more than 90 minutes without the need for a break. Yet, if a break means you stare at another window, perhaps stop writing the report and instead read a news article, your brain is not getting a rest.  Instead, one of the best things you could do, particularly now, with the new flexible ways of working, is to get up and do something manually.  Perhaps take the laundry and do a load of washing. Then return to your computer, work for another hour and then hang the washing up.  Two things happen here. First, your brain gets a rest from deep thinking and does something simple. And secondly, you move. Another thing your brain requires to work at its best.  Repetitive tasks are therapy for your brain. This is why some say that jogging or hiking is therapeutic. The act of putting one foot in front of another is repetitive and your brain can operate on automatic pilot.  Yet, there's something else here.  The other day I had a pile of ironing to do. It wasn't overwhelming, but there was around forty-minutes of work there to do.  At the same time, I was working on an article I was writing. That writing began strongly, but after an hour or so, my writing had slowed considerably. I was struggling. It was at that moment I looked up and saw the pile of ironing.  So, I got up, pulled out the ironing board and iron and spend forty minutes or so clearing the pile.  WOW! What a difference. After hanging up the clothes, I sat back down at my desk and the energy to write returned and I was able to get the article finished in no time at all.  Now what would have happened had I stayed tied to my desk? Probably not very much at all. I would have continued to struggle, perhaps written a bit, but likely would have had to rewrite what I had written.  Instead, I gave my brain a break. I did something manual that was repetitive, ironing. I know it's not exciting, but that's the point. It recharged my brain and I was able to return to my writing refreshed and didn't need to rewrite anything later.  Other activities you can do is to make your own lunch. Going into the kitchen to make a sandwich does not require a lot of brain power. It gets you up from your desk, gives your brain a break from the screen and you're making something.  It was a sense that everything I was doing was done at a screen that was the catalyst for me to return to doing some things manually.  I remember when I decided to start using a pen and notebook for planning out my week. I was shocked how much better I thought.  When I was planning my week digitally, I couldn't wait to get it over. Just to make it feel more worthwhile, I would clean up a folder or clear my desktop of screenshots and PDFs I no longer needed. I noticed I was doing anything but actually plan the week. When I closed my computer, pulled out a notebook and one of my favourite fountain pens, I actually planned and thought about what I wanted to accomplish that week.  My Saturday morning planning sessions have become one of my favourite times of the week. I can stop, slow down and just think slowly and deeply about what I want to accomplish.  And all these little things that have slowed me down have resulted in me getting far more done each week.  Without consciously choosing to do so, my social media time has dropped significantly. I don't watch as many YouTube videos as I used to do, and I feel more fulfilled and accomplished at the end of the day.  A couple of months ago, while my wife was studying for her end of term exams, I would finish in my office, go through into the living room where she was studying, pick up a real book and read.  It was a lovely feeling. My wife, Louis and myself all on the sofa engaged in something meaningful. We were still able to ask each other questions, but for the most part it felt calm, quiet and natural.  Last weekend, during my TV time, I began watching the autobiographical series on the Life and Times of Lord Louis Mountbatten.  Mountbatten was born in 1900 and died in 1979. He lived through two World Wars, was a part of both, was a member of the Royal Family, being the cousin of King George 6th, and was involved in many post war events.  As he was describing his work, I noticed there was no “9 til 5” hours or any of the structures we impose on ourselves today.  For most of Mountbatten's life there was no television. Instead, people wrote letters or read books in their quiet times. Most weekends were spent socialising with family and friends and there was a lot of walking in the countryside.  Yes, Mountbatten lived a privileged life, he was royalty after all, but even if you study the working classes of the time, they went to work—often hard manual labour, and come home where they would either spend the evening talking and playing games with their families or call into the local pub and enjoy time with their friends and neighbours.  They were different times, of course, but the noticeable thing was the everything that needed to be done got done.  Was was most striking about these times was the sense of fulfilment people spoke and wrote about. They were doing hard manual work, yet had a sense of accomplishment each day.  Today, that sense of fulfilment and accomplish can be lost and instead because of the endless lists of to-dos, messages to respond to we feel overwhelmed and swamped.  The most noticeable benefit I've found by returning to a few analogue tools is I no longer feel overwhelmed. I find I am more intentional about what I do and at the end of the day, I feel a sense of accomplishment.  So there you go, Michael. That's why I've brought back some analogue tools into my life. They slowed me down, enabled me to think better and ironically, I am getting a lot more done that I did when I was completely paperless and digital.  I hope that has helped. Thank you for your question. And thank you to you too for listening.  Now I must go and hang up the laundry.  It just remains for me now to wish you all a very very productive week.

(43:37) A product SO good, it ruined that whole category for you. (51:51) Pink Pony Club. (53:29) #Quah question #1 – Should you add more weight or do more reps? (59:06) #Quah question #2 – I've heard you guys say protein is hit or miss daily, it's not a weekly average. Why? If I hit 150G one day, 250G the next, for an average of 200G per day, why does that not work? (1:04:21) #Quah question #3 – I keep seeing that taking Baking Soda before you work out will give you bigger pumps. Is there any truth to this? I'm worried instead of getting bigger pumps it's going to be bigger dumps.
