James Golden is a fitness professional based in the Cotswolds. He's trained athletes and non athletes for decades. But in this conversation he tells me that if someone is starting from scratch trying to get healthier adding movement into daily life could be the key - rather than say three trips to the gym per week.In this conversation James gives concrete examples of how we can add steps and bodyweight resistance work into everyday activities. We also discuss James' Elite Soccer Coaching company with kids camps lead by pro footballer Jordan Thomas coming up at half-term and Easter. https://www.elitesoccerstars.com********* Chief Sponsor: Bang & Olufsen Cheltenham: https://stores.bang-olufsen.com/en/united-kingdom/cheltenham/unit-15-the-courtyard-montpellier-streetInfo on Sponsor Offerings: For 15% off Herring Shoes enter the code SPORTANDLIFE at checkout at - https://www.herringshoes.co.ukFor 30% off Cytoplan supplements for your first purchase at https://www.cytoplan.co.uk and a 10% discount ongoing: Check out the intro to the podcast.For a 10% discount with GHS Cheltenham Clinics' Health Checks - https://ghsclinics.health, contact me: teddy@drapermedia.co.uk

In this episode of Reading With Your Kids, host Jed Doherty welcomes three very different—but equally exciting—guests who are passionate about helping kids grow smarter and braver. First, Jed chats with Adam Adler and his 10‑year‑old daughter Isla, the father–daughter team behind Wyzly, a groundbreaking screen time app for kids. Tired of daily battles over iPads and YouTube, Isla came up with the idea for an app that doesn't just shut devices off—it asks kids educational questions to unlock their favorite apps. Adam explains how Wyzly uses a "learn to earn" model and customizes questions by age, grade, and school district, turning screen time into a reward for real learning. Parents get powerful parental controls, data on what their children are mastering, and even the option for Wyzly's AI to manage screen time breaks based on research and child well‑being. In the second half, Jed is joined by award‑winning author Mahatab Nasim to discuss her spooky middle grade horror novel, Haunted. Inspired by a chilling Chinese lake myth about restless water spirits, Haunted follows Jonah at a remote Canadian camp as he confronts eerie happenings, a tragic drowning, and a terrifying storm to save his mom. Mahatab shares how spooky middle grade books give kids a safe way to explore fear, build resilience, and practice critical thinking while enjoying diverse myths and folktales from across Asia. This episode is perfect for parents, educators, and young readers interested in healthy screen time, AI‑powered learning, and kid‑friendly scary stories that spark big conversations.

Employee benefits strategy has become one of the most important levers for sustainable business growth. As healthcare costs continue to rise and employees struggle to understand and use their benefits effectively, leaders are being forced to rethink how benefits fit into the larger picture of culture, retention, and performance. The companies getting it right are no longer treating benefits as a necessary expense, but as a strategic advantage. Reid Rasmussen has spent years helping employers navigate this shift. As Co-Founder and CEO of FreshBenies, Reid has built a company focused on cutting benefits costs while removing the confusion that often leaves employees disengaged and frustrated. His work centers on a simple belief: when employees understand and trust their benefits, businesses operate more efficiently and grow stronger. FreshBenies was designed to address the real pain points employers face every day. Rising premiums, higher out-of-pocket expenses, and underutilized benefits have created a system that works against both employers and employees. Reid's approach reframes employee benefits strategy as a tool for empowerment, combining healthcare advocacy, concierge-style navigation, telehealth access, and prescription savings into one streamlined experience. This clarity matters. When employees feel overwhelmed by benefits, they avoid using them or make costly decisions that impact both their health and the company's bottom line. A smarter employee benefits strategy reduces friction, increases utilization, and builds trust between organizations and their teams. That trust becomes a foundation for stronger engagement and long-term retention. Reid's leadership perspective is shaped not only by benefits innovation but also by how he runs his company. FreshBenies has operated as a remote team since 2009, long before remote work became mainstream. That experience has reinforced the importance of values-based leadership, clear communication, and systems that support people regardless of location. For Reid, employee benefits strategy is inseparable from leadership strategy. Ford Saeks brings a complementary lens to the conversation, grounded in business growth and scalability. Having worked with organizations across industries, Ford consistently emphasizes that growth is not driven by tactics alone. It comes from alignment between systems, culture, and leadership. Benefits are often overlooked in that equation, yet they play a critical role in how employees perceive their employer and their own value within the organization. A strong employee benefits strategy also signals something deeper about leadership priorities. It shows that a company is willing to invest in clarity, access, and employee wellbeing rather than defaulting to complexity and cost-shifting. That mindset resonates in today's labor market, where employees are more informed, more mobile, and more selective about where they work. Beyond benefits design, Reid is a passionate advocate for continual learning and leadership development. He believes that companies grow when leaders commit to understanding their people, listening to feedback, and making decisions rooted in shared values. That philosophy shows up not only in how FreshBenies serves employers, but in how the company builds its own internal culture. Employee benefits strategy is no longer a back-office function. It is a front-line growth decision that affects recruitment, retention, productivity, and trust. Businesses that embrace this reality are better positioned to compete, adapt, and scale in an increasingly complex environment. FreshBenies continues to demonstrate how simplifying benefits can create meaningful impact. By reducing confusion and empowering employees, Reid Rasmussen has helped organizations transform benefits from a source of frustration into a driver of smarter business growth.

In high school, a career and technical education program let her earn healthcare certifications that sparked real clinical interest. As an undergrad at Texas A&M, she sought academic rigor and built-in research while learning to ask for help sooner—through office hours, professional advising, and a premed society that brought advisors and medical schools to campus.She shares the toughest moments too: a rocky transition to college, being humbled by General Chemistry (but loving visual organic chemistry), and navigating a competitive premed culture by staying in her own lane. Inside medical school, she talks imposter syndrome, the fire‑hydrant pace of learning, and how Pomodoro, Anki, and visual tools on her iPad kept her grounded. She opens up about the stress of MMIs and virtual glitches, the relief of a Texas pre‑match call after three interviews, and the power of friends and family when things get heavy.If you're weighing how hard to push versus how smart to study, or how to keep your “why” front and center, Kaylah's candid reflections will help you recalibrate.What You'll Learn:- How to plug into advising and support even at large schools- Ways to manage competition by staying in your lane- Smarter study methods: Pomodoro, Anki, and visual learning- Handling MMIs when there's no feedback or affirmation- Keeping your why alive through setbacks and intensity

Steve explains how Badger Maps and Badger Align help sales teams visualize customers geographically, balance territories using real data, and create more efficient routes that lead to more meetings and measurable sales lift. They also explore why mobile-friendly CRM tools matter so much for outside sellers, and how removing friction from data entry in the field directly impacts performance.The conversation expands into Badger Maps' broader platform, including lead routing, geographic insights, and performance tracking, before Steve shares the origin story behind the product — a firsthand realization that sales data is far more powerful when you can see it on a map._______Curious about certification in the Blind Zebra Sales Operating System?

The discussion covers extraction technique modifications, bur selection for challenging teeth, and evidence-based use of hyaluronic acid and bone grafts in periodontal and surgical cases. Dr. Beckman explains why he has shifted away from routine vestibular bone removal for certain extractions—particularly the mandibular third and fourth premolars—and instead emphasizes controlled sectioning, gentle elevation, and patience to reduce root fracture risk. He shares practical tips on finger pressure, visualization with loupes, and how this technique improves efficiency and outcomes in both clinical cases and wet labs. The episode also explores the biological role of hyaluronic acid in extraction sites and periodontal defects. Dr. Beckman and colleagues clarify the differences between PerioVive and OralVive, explain why retention is not the primary goal of hyaluronic acid therapy, and discuss its benefits for clot stabilization, pain modulation, angiogenesis, and soft tissue healing. The conversation addresses when hyaluronic acid should be used in extraction sites, how it integrates with blood clots and bone grafts, and why products like ClinDoral no longer have a role in these scenarios. Finally, Dr. Beckman dives into one of the most challenging topics in veterinary dentistry: deciding when to save a tooth versus extract it. He breaks down why percentage-based bone loss alone is not a reliable extraction rule, and instead emphasizes case selection based on tooth function, patient age, defect type, and—most importantly—owner commitment to long-term follow-up and home care. This episode delivers thoughtful, experience-driven guidance to help veterinarians make confident, ethical, and practical dental decisions. ---------------------------------------------------------- What You'll Learn: ✅ When vestibular bone removal may increase root fracture risk ✅ How to approach difficult premolar extractions with minimal force ✅ Why sectioning and gentle elevation can replace aggressive bone removal ✅ Proper bur selection for sectioning thick alveolar bone ✅ The biological role of hyaluronic acid in clot stabilization and healing ✅ Key differences between PerioVive and OralVive ✅ Why retention is not the primary goal of hyaluronic acid therapy ✅ When and why to use hyaluronic acid in all extraction sites ✅ How bone grafts and blood clots support alveolar ridge preservation ✅ How to decide when a tooth is worth saving versus extracting Key Takeaways: ✅ Root fractures often occur at the interface between mobile and immobile bone ✅ Gentle, controlled elevation reduces complications more than force ✅ Removing less bone can sometimes improve extraction outcomes ✅ Hyaluronic acid is rapidly absorbed and supports natural healing pathways ✅ Pain modulation is a major benefit of HA in extraction sites ✅ Blood clots function as natural bone grafts ✅ Percentage of bone loss alone should not dictate extraction decisions ✅ Patient age, tooth function, and owner compliance matter most ✅ Long-term success depends on consistent rechecks and home care ✅ Some teeth can be saved—but not always in the patient's best interest Questions This Episode Answers: ❓ Should fissure burs be used for mandibular premolar extractions in dogs? ❓ Why do roots fracture after vestibular bone removal? ❓ How much pressure should be used during elevation? ❓ What is the difference between PerioVive and OralVive? ❓ Does hyaluronic acid need to "stay in place" to be effective? ❓ Should hyaluronic acid be used in every extraction site? ❓ Is a blood clot considered a bone graft? ❓ When should a tooth with severe bone loss be saved instead of extracted? ❓ How important is owner compliance in periodontal case selection? ❓ Is there still any indication for ClinDoral use?

Send a textGrowth isn't a mystery; it's a system. We sit down with award-winning fractional CMO and bestselling author Kathryn Strachan to unpack the moves that turn scattered marketing efforts into a commercial engine that compounds. From the mindset shift that frees founders from bottlenecking their teams to the exact sequence for building demand and then layering sales, Kathryn shares a clear, proven path to scale.We start with the hardest habit to break: doing everything yourself. Kathryn explains how she stepped out of the weeds, hired senior operators, and aligned teams around outcomes instead of tactics. Then we go deep on foundations—positioning, ICP clarity, and validated messaging—so every tactic has a purpose. She walks through the first levers she pulls inside a company: rebuild the website as a true conversion hub and run a spend audit to stop wasting money on channels that don't move pipeline. The result is a tighter story, a cleaner funnel, and a budget that works harder.Kathryn also challenges a common startup reflex: hiring sales before marketing. Her approach flips the order. Keep founder-led sales while a fractional marketing leader builds brand, content, and credibility that drive inbound. Six months later, add sales to convert that momentum and amplify with targeted outbound. We explore how personal branding fuels trust at scale, why technical founders struggle with commercial storytelling, and how a visible leader can win enterprise attention without a giant ad budget.Finally, we tackle the 2025 reality: AI is the new search. If your brand isn't cited across the web, AI won't surface you.

In this episode of Real Estate Breakthrough, host Christina Sudter sits down with Brian to unpack his 20-year journey from over-leveraged active investor to disciplined, community-driven passive investor. Brian shares the raw, unpolished truth about losing his shirt in 2008, the painful realization that he was subsidizing underperforming rentals with his own sweat equity, and the decade of expat life that forced him to confront what his portfolio was actually delivering. But this isn't just a cautionary tale, it's a blueprint. Brian reveals how he rebuilt his relationship with real estate by pivoting to truly passive strategies, from publicly traded REITs and crowdfunding platforms to eventually creating the Co-Investing Club, a membership-based investment community that allows everyday investors to deploy as little as $5,000 per deal, practice dollar-cost averaging in real estate, and vet opportunities alongside dozens of experienced peers. You'll learn why Brian believes group due diligence is more powerful than solo analysis, how he sources and pre-vets operators, why he puts his own money in every single deal the club invests in, and how this model solves the conflict-of-interest problem that plagues so many investment platforms. He also shares hard-won wisdom on what it really takes to manage rental properties from abroad, why cash flow isn't the same as profit, and how to build a real estate practice that actually aligns with the life you want to live. Whether you're an aspiring passive investor, a burnt-out landlord, or someone looking to dollar-cost average your way into institutional-quality deals, this conversation will give you the clarity, tools, and courage to do it differently. #PassiveRealEstate #CoInvestingClub #RealEstateInvesting #DollarCostAveraging #FromLandlordToInvestor #RealEstateCrowdfunding #DueDiligence

The Yankees officially chose the most polarizing path possible: run it back. With the offseason over, we rewind to November and replay everyone's original Yankees plans to see just how far off the front office went from fan expectations. From dream scenarios involving Alex Bregman, Josh Naylor, Steven Kwan, Sandy Alcantara, and bullpen reinforcements, to the reality of Cody Bellinger returning and almost nothing else changing, the gap is glaring. So what does it actually mean that nearly the entire roster is back? Is Brian Cashman betting on internal growth, better health, and fewer October failures? Or did the Yankees miss a real opportunity to raise their playoff ceiling? We break down the leadoff problem, bullpen concerns, roster stagnation, and whether believing in improvement from Volpe, Dominguez, Rice, Wells, and others is enough to justify one of the most extreme “run it back” seasons in modern Yankees history.

What do you do when life suddenly strips away your bandwidth? In this episode, Cait shares a real-time reflection on visibility, prioritization, and leadership as a mom when everything hits at once. This conversation is a powerful reframe for mothers who feel pressure to "stay consistent" no matter what. Cait challenges the traditional, often masculine definition of consistency in business and offers a more grounded, strategic approach to visibility that honors capacity while still moving the needle forward. Tune in to hear: Why consistency before motherhood is not the same as consistency after becoming a mom How life disruptions force us to clarify what actually matters in our businesses The difference between performative visibility and leveraged visibility Where to focus your attention when marketing bandwidth drops to zero Why being visible doesn't always mean posting, performing, or being public How prioritizing clients and sales conversations can matter more than social media presence A permission slip to stop "doing it all" and start choosing what's most impactful   If this episode resonates with you, don't forget to share it to your stories and tag @themillionairemother, or leave a 5-star rating and review on Apple Podcasts-it helps more mamas find this show.

New technologies, from telehealth to wearables to AI, are transforming how health data is created, shared, and used. But for public health agencies, keeping pace isn't just about adopting the latest tools, it's about building systems that are flexible, trustworthy, and sustainable. In this episode, John Stinn, Deloitte Consulting Managing Director in Government and Public Services Digital Health Practices, joins us to unpack how public health agencies can navigate a rapidly evolving data landscape. He shares why starting with the problem you're trying to solve, not the technology, is essential, how thoughtful data governance and workflow design can reduce risk and control costs, and why open-source platforms and shared solutions can help agencies avoid reinventing the wheel.

This episode of https://FixItRadio.com pulls back the curtain on one of the most expensive—and misunderstood—parts of homeownership: your roof. Host John Rush is joined by Dave Hart of Roof Savers of Colorado (https://roofsaversco.com/) and insurance expert Paul Leuenberger (https://www.americannational.com/agent?s=paulleuenberger-683) for a candid discussion on roofing, insurance, and personal responsibility. The conversation challenges the old mindset of “wait for a hailstorm and file a claim.” With deductibles rising, ACV policies becoming the norm, and insurers tightening requirements, listeners are shown why preventative maintenance may now be the smartest financial move. What actually happens when shingles dry out? Can roofs be preserved instead of replaced? And how do insurance claims today follow you for years? The episode also exposes the risks of storm chasers, rushed claims, and misleading inspections—along with how homeowners can protect themselves before making costly mistakes. From RoofMax treatments and financing options to real-world insurance math, this hour reframes roofing as a long-term strategy rather than a reaction to disaster. If you want fewer surprises, more control over your costs, and peace of mind before the next storm hits, this is an episode you don't want to miss.

Dating again in midlife can stir up a mix of curiosity, hope, and very real hesitation. After divorce, it's not just about meeting someone new, it's about trusting your instincts and believing that love can feel different this time. Susan Guthrie welcomes back one of Divorce & Beyond's most trusted and favorite guests, Bela Gandhi, for an honest, encouraging conversation about what it truly takes to move from fear to confidence when dating again in midlife. Known as America's go-to dating coach and beloved by the Divorce & Beyond community, Bela brings warmth, optimism, and refreshingly practical wisdom to a chapter that often feels overwhelming. Together, Susan and Bela unpack why midlife dating can actually be better than ever, how to stop repeating old patterns that no longer serve you, and what smart, intentional dating looks like when you're choosing differently and more consciously this time around. What You'll Learn Why fear around dating after divorce is normal How those “rollercoaster butterflies” are usually a sign of anxiety, not chemistry, and how to recognize calm as a healthier sign of compatibility How dating today offers more options, visibility, and agency than ever before, especially for midlife daters Why confidence in dating comes from having a clear plan, not luck, timing, or instant sparks How slowing down and allowing connection to develop over time leads to better long-term outcomes About the Guest  Bela Gandhi is a dating/relationship expert, TEDx speaker, founder of Smart Dating AcademyÒ and has been featured on most national/local media outlets including Good Morning America, Steve Harvey, the Today Show, Kelly Clarkson, Access, ABC, NBC, Fox, and more.  Bela realized her gift for love when she was in college and started matchmaking and coaching her friends – watching them sail on to relationship bliss and marriage.  Using her own system, Bela found her own amazing husband of over 20 years, and in 2009, founded Smart Dating AcademyÒ.  Smart Dating Academy teaches singles all over the globe the Smart DatingÒ four phase system – 1) Preparing to Date, 2) Dating, 3) Exclusivity and 4) Happily Ever After.   They specialize in VIP 1:1 coaching, and with clients that have followed their system, they've had ‘zero divorces.'  They help singles to ‘fix their pickers' because their coaches are deep in the weeds with clients, helping read profiles, message, and rate each date after it happens – she makes dating fun, easy and successful!   Before starting Smart Dating Academy, Bela earned dual degrees in Finance and German from the University of Illinois in Urbana/Champaign.  Bela worked in mergers and acquisitions for Arthur Andersen in Chicago for a year before joining her family's chemicals manufacturing company (called CCC), where she divided her time between Chicago and Europe helping to expand the business. When they sold the business to Fortune 500 company Akzo Nobel, she was asked to remain its leader and became Akzo Nobel Non-Stick Coating's Global Vice President of Housewares.   While climbing the corporate ladder, she realized it was time to unveil her system to the world, and it was her best decision ever.  Bela lives in Lincoln Park with her husband Andy and 2 children, Jaden and Max, and is going to be an empty nester next year!    Connect with Bela Gandhi Website: http://smartdatingacademy.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/smartdatingacademy Podcast: https://www.smartdatingacademy.com/podcast The Midlife Dating Mindset Reset Guide Download Make the Most of Your Listening Experience: If this episode resonates with you, be sure to: Subscribe to Divorce & Beyond so you never miss an episode.

If you live in a rural area, you already know the struggle: the internet will have you stuck in the dark ages… and then everybody acts surprised when you can't stream, work, or upload a thing. In this episode of Adulting with Autism, I'm talking with Mashood Ahmad, founder and CEO of Gigabit IQ — known as the UK's "Safe Broadband Provider." Mashood has spent 25+ years in telecom and broadband, and he's on a mission to make internet access not only fast, but also safer for families. And y'all… we get into the part parents are exhausted by: online safety. Because once kids hit the internet, it can turn into the Wild West real quick — especially for autistic and neurodivergent kids who may be more vulnerable to manipulation, grooming, cyberbullying, and unsafe content. We talk about why "basic" parental controls aren't enough when you've got 20 devices in one house, and how network-level tools (aka controls that work across your home Wi-Fi) can reduce the chaos. We also get REAL about: Why "super fast fiber" isn't always super, fast, or fiber Roblox, in-game chats, and how "kid games" can still be unsafe FamilyGuard+ features like age-based filtering, screen time limits, app blocking, alerts, and VPN bypass blocking (because these kids are SMART smart) How parents can set digital boundaries without turning into full-time detectives Why safety needs to be the standard — like seatbelts — not an optional add-on Connect with Mashood / Gigabit IQ: Website: gigabitiq.com Learn about FamilyGuard+: Gigabit IQ FamilyGuard+

"Now with agentic AI, RFPs are becoming and will become even leaner, and they'll cut to the chase a whole lot faster. There'll be a lot less fluff." - Barri Horn, Director of Product Marketing for AI for SAP Ariba and SAP Fieldglass' strategic procurement portfolios AI is reshaping the RFP process, but smart procurement leaders know they have to think beyond speed or efficiency drivers and, instead, reimagine the value they deliver. As teams turn to AI to break free from past challenges, the question isn't if change is coming, but how to capture its advantages while managing risk, trust, and adoption. In this episode, Philip Ideson speaks with Barri Horn, Director of Product Marketing for AI for SAP Ariba and SAP Fieldglass' strategic procurement portfolios, to dig into what's truly changing in the world of RFPs, why agentic AI is different from yesterday's tools, and how procurement can use new technology without losing stakeholder trust.  Expect practical, leader-level guidance for running better RFPs and rolling out AI that sticks. Barri discusses workflows, pitfalls, and organizational mindsets that separate successful AI adoption from failed pilots: How to streamline repetitive RFP tasks with AI so teams can focus on insight Asking smarter, market-driven questions without overwhelming suppliers Aligning AI "autonomy" with procurement's risk comfort level Building trust and credibility through transparency and foundational training Resetting and rebooting change programs to support adoption Links: Barri Horn on LinkedIn Subscribe to This Week in Procurement Subscribe to Art of Procurement on YouTube
