Jeremy Horowitz is the Managing Partner of Because Ventures and the creator of Let's Buy a Biz!, a media brand and private equity-backed content engine built to make ecommerce M&A more transparent, data-driven, and founder-friendly. Because Ventures is a private equity search fund focused on acquiring and scaling Shopify brands and apps, while Let's Buy a Biz! documents what it actually takes to grow Top 1% ecommerce businesses.Before launching either venture, Jeremy worked across every layer of the Shopify ecosystem from scaling high-growth DTC brands like Lumi, to leading growth at top-performing Shopify apps like Gorgias. His on-the-ground experience gave him a front-row seat to what really drives retention, profit, and valuation. Now, through Because Ventures, Jeremy applies that knowledge to acquire and operate ecommerce businesses with sustainable margins and focused stacks.Whether debunking the myth that “every brand needs subscriptions,” tracking the 84% adoption rate of email/SMS across $1M+ stores, or predicting which app categories will consolidate over the next five years, Jeremy brings a deep analytical lens to ecommerce strategy. He shares insights from crawling 103,000 Shopify stores, explains why most loyalty programs fail, and urges founders to simplify their tech stack before adding complexity.

Epinephrine auto-injectors, first developed in the 1970s, are the most common emergency treatments for anaphylaxis, often deadly allergic reactions. The limitations of liquid epinephrine and the device's decades-old technology have kept these life-saving devices out of patients' hands. Austin-based startup Windgap Medical, Inc. plans to break these barriers with a more convenient, shelf-stable alternative.In Episode 41 of the MedTech Speed to Data podcast Key Tech's Andy Rogers and Thomas James sit down with Windgap's co-founder and Chief Business Officer, Brent Buchine, to discuss the data-driven development of the company's life-saving technology.Need to know·       Epinephrine auto-injectors are big business — A $1.3 billion market at Windgap's founding, sales of epinephrine auto-injectors exceeded $3.1 billion in 2024.·       Few eligible patients get these life-saving devices — Only 52% of American food allergy patients ever receive prescriptions, and epinephrine auto-injectors are only available in 32% of the world's 195 countries.·       Traditional auto-injectors are relatively large and inconvenient — Only 55% of patients with prescriptions report having immediate access to their auto-injectors.·       Liquid epinephrine is thermally unstable — Doses lose their effectiveness with prolonged heat exposure, forcing patients to refill their prescriptions more frequently.The nitty-grittyBuchine and his co-founders saw an opportunity to make epinephrine delivery more convenient and accessible. “We developed a freeze-dried version of epinephrine to make it more stable and double, if not triple, the shelf life,” Buchine explains.However, lyophilization introduces an extra step in the treatment process. The dried epinephrine must be rehydrated and mixed in a solution before injection.“If you have a rescue product for emergency use, you have to get it very quickly,” Buchine says. “With modest training, you need to make sure people know how to use the product because their life is at risk if it doesn't work.”Windgap's ANDI® platform is a small, highly portable single-dose auto-injector, Buchine explains. “Simply twisting the cap automatically rehydrates that dose in a couple of seconds — no shaking, no swirling required. It's ready to inject by pressing the device next to the injection site.”Windgap and its pharmaceutical clients are still in the commercialization phase, but the company is already looking at the future of complex injectables.“We see that, fundamentally, formulation pipelines are getting more and more challenging,” Buchine says. “You have multiple injections, you have mixing, you have high viscosity/high volume. The conventional options out there are not as suitable anymore. We're solving those problems specifically because we think there's an opportunity to be best in class in that area.”Data that made the difference:Developing combination products is a multi-stakeholder problem. “It's drug, it's device, it's patient, it's prescriber, it's payer. You've got to think about all of those stakeholders along your development.”Get in front of stakeholders to understand the problem. “We did a lot of surveys and uncovered the opportunity. Patients weren't getting prescriptions filled or weren't even going to the doctor to get prescriptions. It was that segment that we spent a lot of time talking to.”Listen to your customers. “We'll talk to pharmaceutical companies [and ask] what are some of the biggest challenges you're facing in your pipeline? And then you just listen. Over time, you look for that recurring theme. That's what really drove our product strategy.”Use data to convince investors. “There was a vastly underserved market. Our ability to communicate that to investors and help them understand the opportunity of taking [at the time] a $1.3 billion business to something substantially above that.”

If you've ever launched an AI feature and later realized it wasn't quite ready—or struggled to define what “quality” even looks like in an AI product—this episode is for you.In this episode of Supra Insider, Marc and Ben sit down with Aman Khan, Head of Product of Arize AI and a leading voice in AI product evaluation. Aman has helped dozens of teams—from scrappy startups to massive consumer platforms—build systematic approaches for evaluating LLM-powered features. Together, they explore the dangers of “vibe coding” your way to production, how to define and operationalize evals across different layers of your product, and why even “good” outputs can still lead to bad outcomes without proper measurement.Whether you're a PM under pressure to ship AI features fast, or a product leader figuring out how to instill quality and reliability into your development process, this conversation is packed with frameworks, analogies (like self-driving cars), and hard-won lessons you can use to build smarter and ship more confidently.All episodes of the podcast are also available on Spotify, Apple and YouTube.New to the pod?

Bigfoot Looks HumanA Native American woman, accustomed to solitary wilderness adventures, recounts a vivid encounter from nearly 20 years ago at a crowded beach in northeastern Washington. While kayaking with family, she lingered alone offshore to eat lunch and felt uneasy. Spotting a tall, handsome man with silver-tipped body hair watching her intently from the shore, she initially mistook him for an elderly human. As she paddled closer, she realized he was not elderly but a striking, eight-foot-tall being, naked and covered in glossy hair, exuding intelligence and a human-like presence. Despite his non-threatening demeanor, he vanished into the trees, and she later noticed a figure tracking her from a distant mountain. After sharing her story online, she faced ridicule but connected with others through Bigfoot forums, insisting the being was a man, not an animal, and seeking others with similar experiences.Join my Supporters Club for $4.99 per month for exclusive stories:https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/what-if-it-s-true-podcast--5445587/support

That's exactly what Andrew Gomez did — starting his trucking company at just 18 years old! In this episode hosted by Kirsten Tyrrel, Andrew shares how he went from dispatching for his brother to financing two trucks and launching AJG Transport while still a teenager. Over the years, he expanded into truck repair, logistics brokerage, government contracting, and even launched a trucking-focused software company.

From building trust with brokers and shippers to creating a culture of empathy and excellence for his drivers, he drops powerful lessons on resilience, innovation, and leadership that apply to any business. Whether you're 18 or 80, Andrew's story proves that hustle, heart, and vision can take you further than a degree ever will!

Picture this: You're on the wildest roller coaster of your life – dizzying highs, sudden drops, and your heart racing. For many of us with ADHD, early romance can feel exactly like that. Our brains light up with excitement and novelty, but those same traits that make us passionate can also leave us vulnerable to toxic relationships. Research shows that adults with ADHD often report childhood trauma and have brains that crave dopamine in high doses. That means the drama of a turbulent partner might feel familiar or even thrilling. As Dr. Gabor Maté puts it, people unconsciously “choose each other with an unerring instinct” for partners who mirror their own unresolved anxieties and pain. In plain terms, ADHD traits plus past stresses can set us up for danger if we're not careful. Today on Authentically ADHD, we're peeling back the curtain on why ADHD brains are wired to overlook red flags, and how to recognize and escape toxic dynamics – with a dose of neuroscience, expert insight, and real talk.Impulsivity & Novelty-SeekingFor someone with ADHD, new romance can be intoxicating. We crave excitement, and a high-energy partner often delivers. As ADHD experts explain, ADHD often means higher impulsivity and constant novelty-seeking. In one study's key takeaways, ADHD “can cause increased impulsivity and novelty-seeking behavior — like constantly looking for new and exciting experiences”. In practice, that means you might rush headlong into a relationship without waiting to see the red flags. Dr. Edward Hallowell famously described how a person with ADHD “seldom feels bored”, instantly switching to something new at the first hint of dullness. When a toxic partner offers a rush of drama – extreme highs like bombarding you with affection (love-bombing), followed by sharp criticisms – your ADHD brain gets dopamine hits at every twist and turn. Those dopamine spikes can feel like love, making chaos seem exciting instead of dangerous.For example, imagine texting back instantly without thinking, even when something feels off. Or jumping into serious commitments with someone who's shown controlling behaviors, simply because the initial chemistry is overwhelming. That's ADHD impulsivity and thrill-seeking at work. We're more likely to mistake high drama for passion. But remember: healthy relationships can be dynamic too, with steady excitement that builds trust, not tension. As one ADDitude expert notes, treating your ADHD through therapy, medication, or coaching can diminish the craving for those unhealthy dopamine hits, helping you choose more stable love over wild rides.Hyperfocus on the Wrong PartnersIt's no secret: we can intensely fixate on a new crush. In ADHD terms, this is hyperfocus – pouring all our attention into one person. Early in romance, that means calling, texting, planning every detail together in a way that feels magical. But there's a catch. As ADDitude editors point out, people with ADHD “feel emotions intensely and might hyperfocus on their partner, especially at the outset of a new, exciting relationship”. In practice, we hang on every word they say, overlook snide comments, and rewrite our own friend's concerns as jealousy or misunderstanding.For instance, imagine the first few weeks with a new partner: your ADHD brain is 100% engaged. They text, you reply lightning-fast. They cancel plans unexpectedly, and you shrug it off because you're so grateful to have their attention at all. That hyperfocus can blind us to manipulation. We might stay up all night chatting about their life story – even the parts that don't add up – or excuse their mood swings because we're convinced this time they really get us. In short, hyperfocus makes us all in right away. Unfortunately, that's exactly when a toxic partner is most charming. The downside: once the infatuation fades, the problems you missed can hit hard.Emotional Dysregulation & RSDIf romance hits a rough patch, ADHD brains react strongly. Many of us experience big emotions and mood swings that non-ADHD folks don't. This is by no accident: researchers like Dr. Russell Barkley show that emotional impulsiveness and deficient emotional self-regulation (DESR) are integral to ADHD. In plain terms, we can swing from zero to a hundred easily. One ADHD expert put it simply: many adults with ADHD “experience big emotions, and such intense emotions can easily destabilize even the strongest partnerships”. You might cry for hours over a forgotten text, or erupt in anger if you feel left out.On top of that, ADHD comes with something called Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD). RSD means we feel rejection or criticism as emotional pain so intense it's almost physical. Even a partner's mild critique might feel like a punch to the gut. Picture this: your partner says, “Maybe you should try to be on time,” and suddenly you're convinced they're plotting to dump you. That fear triggers panic; you obsess over what you did wrong all night. RSD can make us paranoid about losing someone, even if they haven't shown real signs of leaving. As one therapist explains, this leads some of us to overreact or interpret neutral acts as intentional hurt.The result? Emotional turmoil in the relationship. You may push back fiercely, cry uncontrollably, or withdraw completely, depending on the day. A toxic partner often intentionally amplifies this – a small critique from them can send you spiraling, which they then dismiss as irrational. Meanwhile, your inability to regulate means you keep doing exactly what angers you or makes you sad. Over time, the ups and downs can leave you feeling drained and doubting your sanity.Next up we are talking Boundaries, low self trust, fear of abandonment & misinterpreting social cues and of course some tips on how to spot the red flags and feel more empowered, but first a word from our sponsors….********************course AD, patreon & FOCUSED **************Executive Dysfunction and BoundariesAnother ADHD truth: our executive functioning – planning, organizing, self-control – can be a major challenge. In relationships, this often shows up as forgiving and forgetting where we shouldn't. We struggle to keep track of agreed boundaries. If our partner sets a rule and then crosses it, we might not recall our agreement clearly, or our impulsivity makes us give in. We might be hyper-organized about work but completely miss that we promised to stay home for the night.According to relationship researchers, the ADHD symptoms that commonly impact love include inattention, forgetfulness, impulsivity, and disorganization. These can make our partners feel like we're unreliable or distracted (even if we aren't trying to be). For example, you might forget to call back, miss important dates, or say something impulsive without meaning to. In a toxic dynamic, an abusive partner may use this “flakiness” as more fodder: “You never care!” they might snap, and you believe it. If you've already agreed on a boundary, then your executive funk sets in, you slip, and they use that slip-up against you.Imagine a scenario: Your partner says you're not allowed to have certain friends, but because you forgot the rule, you slip into a group chat. They find out and accuse you of betrayal. You try to organize a simple date night to save the peace, but you overcommit and then drop the ball. Each mistake feeds into a narrative that you are the unreliable one. In reality, ADHD makes it hard to maintain consistency, and a toxic partner will exploit every mix-up.Low Self-Trust and Fear of AbandonmentAfter so many mistakes and misunderstandings, our self-trust can plummet. We start to doubt our instincts. If every relationship feels doomed or everyone seems angry at us, we might think “There must be something wrong with me.” That's a dangerous trap. People with ADHD often develop a deep-seated fear of abandonment – a terror that if we speak up or leave, we really will end up alone. This fear is fueled by a history of feeling rejected or criticized (or even trauma) early in life.Dr. Maté's insight is revealing here: “Couples choose each other with an unerring instinct for finding the very person who will exactly match their own level of unconscious anxieties and mirror their own dysfunctions…”. In other words, we often (unconsciously) pick partners who resonate with our own pain. If you grew up feeling dismissed or unsafe, you might be drawn to someone who keeps you just anxious enough to feel something. Once in that relationship, the fear of losing them can become paralyzing. You worry that no one else would put up with you, so you stay and ignore the issues. This matches what many therapists see: ADHDers, already vulnerable after feeling misunderstood for years, often fear that demanding respect means losing love.On top of that, people with ADHD frequently have low self-esteem because of a lifetime of “you're late, you forgot, you didn't finish.” Dr. Ari Tuckman and others note that ADHD can come hand-in-hand with low confidence and negative self-talk. When that combines with RSD, any threat of breakup feels like confirmation that we're worthless. A toxic partner can pick up on this. They may say, “If you left, you'd be alone forever,” or even gaslight you into thinking you are the problem. We're vulnerable to believing them.Misreading Manipulation & Social CuesHere's another twist: ADHD can make social cues tricky. Many of us are extremely empathetic and assume people are good. At the same time, we can be so distracted that subtle manipulations fly under our radar. A partner might gaslight (“You imagined that, I never said that”) or shift blame, and we might miss or excuse it. We might rationalize their behavior (“He's just stressed”) when an outsider sees it's abuse. Sadly, this combination – empathy plus distractibility – can make us targets for manipulation. A toxic partner counts on us missing their red flags, and often we do.For example, if they love-bomb you (“You're perfect!”) one day and slam you (“You're crazy!”) the next, your ADHD impulses might focus only on the highs and forget the lows until they hit you like a ton of bricks. If your partner hints at being jealous or controlling, you might interpret it as passionate love instead of a warning sign. This isn't your fault – it's how ADHD can paint a rosier picture in the moment. The key is to learn the difference between passion and poison.Spotting Red Flags and Self-EmpowermentLet's pull this together with some practical steps. The good news: knowing these patterns is the first step to breaking them. Here are some red flags to watch for, especially if you have ADHD:Love-bombing & devaluation: If someone showers you with affection one moment and dismisses you the next, that intense cycle is toxic drama, not true intimacy.Gaslighting: If you constantly feel confused or like you're crazy about reality, that's a major red flag. ADHD brains already second-guess ourselves; don't let someone else add fuel.Disrespecting boundaries: If your “no” or your limits are ignored or mocked, that partner is not respecting you. That's abuse, not just a “quirk.”Consistent disrespect: Small insidious things (rolling eyes, insults, taking you for granted) add up. ADHD people may brush them off, but ask yourself, “How would I feel if a friend said these things?”Excessive drama: An ongoing soap opera of breakups and makeups is not love, it's manipulation. Your brain might crave the adrenaline, but it's unhealthy.Knowledge is power. As one ADDitude article recommends, recognize the signs early and treat your ADHD – with coaching, therapy, medication or all three. Managing your ADHD symptoms can help clear the fog: you'll have better impulse control, greater emotional balance, and a more realistic view of your partner. Also, remember: you deserve consistency and respect. It's okay to set firm boundaries and stick to them. Practice saying “no” in low-stakes situations so it's easier when it counts.If you notice your anxious ADHD brain is saying things like “If I leave, I'll never find anyone,” remember the facts: Some relationships truly are meant to last a season, and letting go is not a failure. As one expert bluntly puts it: “Leaving doesn't mean you wasted time… Leaving is always an option”. Empower yourself by remembering that the right person will value your kindness and passion – not exploit it.In closing: ADHD gives us wonderful strengths (creativity, empathy, energy), but it also comes with vulnerabilities in love. By educating ourselves about how our brains work, listening to experts, and sharing experiences, we can spot toxic patterns before they take hold. You are worthy of a healthy, respectful love. Keep your eyes and heart open, trust your gut, and never forget – you're not alone on this journey.

Hi there, welcome to episode 711 of Recruiting Future with me, Matt Alder. Recruiting Future is a podcast that helps Talent Acquisition teams drive measurable impact by developing their strategic capability in Foresight, Influence, Talent, and Technology.  This episode is about Talent and Technology. The recruitment technology landscape is experiencing a perfect storm. Perfect match candidates aren't completing applications due to frustrating processes. At the same time, recruiters are being overwhelmed by candidates using AI tools to generate thousands of low-quality submissions. Traditional matching algorithms provide limited transparency into the decision-making process, thereby creating legal and compliance risks. Meanwhile, cost-per-application models continue to charge for clicks rather than actual conversions, leaving employers paying for candidates who never complete the process. How can TA teams navigate this impossible environment while improving outcomes for everyone involved? My guests this week are Simon Van Hijfte, Marketing Manager at Adecco Belgium, and Ritu Mohanka, CEO at VONQ. Simon shares how Adecco is transforming their recruitment process with AI agents and the impressive results they're achieving - from improved candidate satisfaction to enhanced recruiter efficiency. We also all discuss the shift from opaque matching systems to transparent point-based scoring, how AI agents are solving the broken candidate experience, and why this people-first approach is delivering better business outcomes across the board. Why is the candidate experience broken? The impact of candidates using AI Implementing a people-first approach supported by AI Recruter Enablement vi AI Agents What do the candidates think? Moving from matching to scoring and explainable decision making Spotting transferable skills Vonq's innovative CPA+ model What results has Adecco been getting? What does the future of recruiting look like? Follow this podcast on Apple Podcasts. Follow this podcast on Spotify.

This week on Leadership is Feminine starts the series where I am letting you listen in on actual coaching conversations with female founders. I coach a founder who's been there. She's rebuilding her team—and this time, she's determined to do it differently. No more hiring based on a hunch. No more hoping a great personality will magically turn into aligned performance.

You'll hear us: Workshop real interview questions (and rewrite the fluff into clarity) Role-play what it sounds like to actually vet for values Talk through the emotional aftermath of a few painful mis-hires—and how to give yourself grace and move forward with more strength Whether you're hiring right now or just thinking about the next addition to your team, this conversation will change the way you think about values, culture, and your own role as the leader of both.

Your career deserves protection—act now at https://www.doctorpodcastnetwork.co/setforlife____________In this episode, Dr. Bradley Block interviews Dr. Nini Munoz, who shares strategies to help physicians effectively navigate and combat health misinformation. Known for her platform Nini and the Brain, Dr. Munoz rose to prominence during the COVID-19 pandemic by demystifying complex clinical data. She explains common statistical manipulations, like base rate fallacy and absolute versus relative risk, using examples such as raw milk claims and fluoride debates. Dr. Munoz emphasizes the difference between risk (quantifiable likelihood of harm) and hazard (potential to cause harm), offering strategies to communicate these concepts to patients by aligning with their personal values. From addressing publication bias to advocating humility in science, this episode equips physicians to counter misleading headlines and foster trust with patients.Three Actionable Takeaways:Spot Base Rate Fallacy – Adjust for population size when comparing health outcomes (e.g., pasteurized vs. raw milk hospitalizations) to avoid misleading absolute numbers and reveal true risk.Question Weak Effects – Scrutinize studies with inconsistent or marginal effects, like fluoride research, by checking for confounders, publication bias, or non-replicable results.Tailor Risk Communication – Frame health advice around patients' personal risks (e.g., vaccine benefits for individual healthcare access) to make data relatable and actionable.About the Show:The Physician's Guide to Doctoring covers patient interactions, burnout, career growth, personal finance, and more. If you're tired of dull medical lectures, tune in for real-world lessons we should have learned in med school!About the Guest:Dr. Nini Munoz is a PhD-trained electrical engineer and data scientist who gained prominence during the COVID-19 pandemic through her platform Nini and the Brain. Specializing in risk assessment and statistical literacy, she breaks down complex clinical data in English and Spanish, combating misinformation.

This event was part of Critical Conversations, a new series on the age of misinformation by Intelligence Squared and Sage & Jester, hosted by Sophia Smith Galer. Sometimes the best way to expose a lie is to laugh at it. Satire is a force to be reckoned with in any democracy and artists are essential in shedding light on the truth. Comedy has long been a way to bring difficult conversations to the fore, and to challenge narratives. At Tricks, Trolls and LOLs, find out how humour and creative expression can serve as a counterbalance to misinformation; how satire can dismantle it, why authoritarian regimes fear comedians, and how art can be a powerful antidote to propaganda. In May 2025, we were joined by host Sophia Smith Galer and comedian Rachel Parris at the Pleasance Theatre in London for the first event in our our Critical Conversations series, in partnership with Sage & Jester.
