Patient fear and tension are part of everyday clinical care, and the way a clinician responds can shape a patient's entire experience. In this episode of the Everyday Oral Surgery podcast, host Dr. Grant Stucki welcomes return guest Dr. Richard Akin, an oral and maxillofacial surgeon practicing in Louisiana, for a thoughtful exploration of how trust is built in healthcare settings. Drawing on insights from behavioral psychology and years of clinical experience, Dr. Akin shares how humor, curiosity, and genuine presence can help reduce anxiety and build trust with patients. The conversation examines how small moments, from active listening and inviting patients to share their hobbies to creating a welcoming office environment, can make a meaningful difference in high-stress situations. Dr. Akin also reflects on navigating difficult encounters, ways to support your staff in challenging situations, and sustaining a sense of joy and connection amid the daily demands of running a practice. Listen in for a human-centered discussion on why connection matters in healthcare and how thoughtful responses can transform tense moments into trusting relationships!Key Points From This Episode:Dr. Akin's early interest in behavioral psychology: what it taught him about human behavior.Lessons about connection learned while working in the service industry before dental school.Reflections on how patient fear and tension can show up in everyday clinical encounters.How humor can reduce anxiety and help build trust more quickly with patients.Recognizing shame when patients delay care and responding without judgment.Trust and empathy as prerequisites for effective treatment conversations.How office culture, staff interactions, and environment influence patient comfort.Trust built by referring dentists: how they jump-start the patient relationship before their visit.Using hobbies and personal details to open meaningful conversations.Starting gently with touch to help patients feel safe before invasive care.Active listening and being present as essential tools for building trust and creating ease.Responding to negativity with curiosity and humor to de-escalate tense encounters.Reframing difficult or angry patients as fearful rather than hostile.Using gratitude and human connection to sustain joy in long-term practice.Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Dr. Richard Akin — https://www.drakin.com/ Dr. Richard Akin on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/rick-akin-644aa932/Dr. Richard Akin email — rick@drakin.comEveryday Oral Surgery Website — https://www.everydayoralsurgery.com/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/everydayoralsurgery/ Everyday Oral Surgery on Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/EverydayOralSurgery/Dr. Grant Stucki Email — grantstucki@gmail.comDr. Grant Stucki Phone — 720-441-6059

Send a textIf you've ever walked along a shoreline, spotted trash, and thought, “How did this get here, and what can I do about it?” -- this conversation is for you. Ashley Sullivan, Executive Director of the Rozalia Project for a Clean Ocean, joins me to unpack the very real problem of marine debris and microplastics, and to remind us that curiosity, community, and “lots of littles” can add up to big change.​We explore how getting kids and adults outside for hands-on cleanups builds empathy and sparks those powerful “aha” moments that lead to action. Ashley explains what microplastics and microfibers actually are, how they move from our homes into rivers, lakes, and the ocean, and why they're now being found in wildlife, soils, air, and even our own bodies. You'll also learn what it's like to live and learn aboard a 60-foot research sailboat in the Gulf of Maine.​Ashley shares her winding career path from a childhood spent sailing in Florida to place-based environmental education and leading a marine conservation nonprofit. This episode is a rich resource for educators, caregivers, and young people imagining future STEM/STEAM and conservation careers, plus it serves up practical ideas and a generous dose of hope.​Chapters 00:48 – Meet Ashley and the Rozalia Project02:30 – Marine debris 101: Where all this trash comes from02:54 – Starting with wonder: cleanups, empathy, and “aha” moments03:56 – Microplastics and microfibers made simple09:49 – The CORA Ball12:04 – American Promise: life and learning on a research sailboat18:25 – “Humans caused it, humans can fix it”22:06 – Place-based learning, philosophy, and the sea30:09 – Climate, storms, and why inland trash still reaches the ocean33:29 – What gives Ashley hopeIf this episode sparked curiosity, here are some next steps to take with your learners, families, or teams.Follow the Rozalia Project.​Support the showShare this episode If this conversation sparked wonder, gave you a helpful strategy, or offered a needed reminder of hope, please share it with a friend or colleague.

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu. In this thought-provoking episode, Tom Bilyeu dives deep into the heated debate around voter ID laws, unraveling the real reasons behind the controversy. Using eye-opening examples from around the world, Tom Bilyeu challenges the idea that requiring ID to vote is about race or suppression, and instead explores how political incentives and structural systems shape the conversation. You'll hear compelling stories of everyday fraud, surprising facts about global voting requirements, and a breakdown of how census data and immigration policy intertwine to affect political power and the economy in the United States. Tom Bilyeu brings clarity to a complex issue—connecting dots between voter ID, immigration, welfare, and the national debt—while offering practical insights on what we, as citizens, can do to protect the integrity of our vote and our wallets. If you're ready to challenge the narrative and think deeper about power, policy, and the future, this episode is for you. What's up, everybody? It's Tom Bilyeu here: If you want my help...

JJ welcomes Sheila Donohue for a conversation that blends entrepreneurship, lifestyle, and the art of curated Italian wines and foods. Sheila shares how her company, Verovino, sources small-batch, farm-made wines, olive oils, and specialty foods—many not readily available in the U.S.—and delivers them to both consumers and businesses across America. In This Episode Meet Sheila in Bologna: Sheila shares her life in Bologna, Italy, where she's lived since 2001, and how Italy shaped her expertise and relationships with producers. What Verovino does: Verovino curates and imports authentic, sustainably made, small-batch products—primarily from Italy, plus select producers from other countries and California—selling B2B and direct-to-consumer. From fintech to food & wine: Sheila explains her background in financial technology (fintech), her sommelier training in Italy, and how her personal immersion in artisan food culture inspired the company. Starting from a "clean slate": In 2017, after major life changes, Sheila began building Verovino—funded through savings—and took early action by importing product and going door-to-door to find customers. How the business grows: Sheila emphasizes the importance of continuity (repeat business), building scale, and covering operating expenses. She explains how an omni-channel strategy helps stabilize the business: Distributors nationwide Wine stores & restaurants (especially in California) Direct-to-consumer shipping across the U.S. Corporate gifting & events Marketing & education that compounds: Verovino invests in education and storytelling through digital marketing—especially their blog and YouTube channel—to build long-term brand trust and demand. Product philosophy: As a sommelier-led team, Sheila curates for variety and distinction: reds, whites, rosés, orange wines, sparkling (dry and sweet), plus standout olive oils—including single-varietal olive oils with specific pairing profiles. Events as a growth engine: Sheila shares how tastings, fundraisers, private events, and collaborations introduce people to the products—because tasting creates appreciation and connection. Specialty foods: The conversation highlights a Piedmont hazelnut producer offering toasted hazelnuts, caramelized hazelnuts, hazelnut creams, pasta, and pestos—plus JJ's enthusiasm for pistachio cream and clean ingredients. Wine club & gifting: Sheila describes Verovino's monthly or quarterly wine club, curated shipments with insider notes and stories, and a growing trend of gifting memberships (including personalized letters). Gift sets: Verovino offers curated gift sets—popular in December—and a standout option that pairs wine + olive oil, plus expanded options for non-wine drinkers. A second brand line for broader appeal: To avoid being pigeonholed and to meet different market needs, Sheila shares how Verovino expanded into a separate line for more "recognizable" wines, including Prosecco and kegs—ideal for events and high-volume restaurant service. Advice for new producers: Sheila emphasizes the need to stand out in a crowded market—especially as the wine industry faces headwinds—and to clearly differentiate your product and message. Memorable Moments JJ connects her own journey as a winemaker (High Vibrational Wines) and discusses why she values small-batch, purpose-driven production over mass distribution. A fun community collaboration emerges: JJ invites Sheila to co-create a March event in Ojai with "Women Behind the Business: Real Conversations," potentially adding a wine tasting experience—and they discover their birthdays are both in March. Connect with Sheila / Verovino Website: Verovino.com YouTube: Vero Vino Instagram & Facebook: VeroVinoGusto Closing: JJ encourages listeners to explore Verovino for personal discovery, gifting, and creating meaningful food-and-wine experiences that bring "a taste of Italy" home.

In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, Tyson interviews Adam Williams, a lawyer and entrepreneur passionate about personal branding and social media growth. The discussion covers practical strategies, the importance of authenticity, and the challenges lawyers face in building an online presence. Tyson and Adam chat about how lawyers can create engaging videos for their business. One thing to keep in mind about creating engaging videos is that audiences love the human connection. Videos that are perfect and edited using every tool don't get the most views. For Adam, his successful videos are the ones where he is using selfie mode and walking down the street, within imperfect sound in the background and stumbling over his words. This is because these videos are more real and authentic. It is something to keep in mind when creating videos.Adam provides some insights on starting from ground zero when it comes to creating a presence online. It is best to find a few accounts that you enjoy and take from them. Look at what they do and how well it works. From there, you can “rip off and deploy”. Use those concepts as ideas for how you create your videos because there is no need to reinvent the wheel. Once you figure out what you like, you can work to make it your own.Take a listen!10:02 Content Strategy and Use of AI 19:07 Advice for Creating Engaging Videos32:06 Positioning as an Expert and Relatability 41:39 Lawyers and Personal Branding Hesitation 47:40 Advice for Starting from Zero Online Connect with Adam:Website Instagram FacebookLinkedin Youtube  TikTokTune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here.

Lent invites us to trust God's providence—but it also calls for intention. In this episode, Fr. Patrick Mary Briscoe, OP, author of Witness, joins Katie and her husband, Tommy, to reflect on approaching the season with purpose. Fr. Patrick shares how writing a Lenten reflection journal helped him contemplate the Cross more deeply and why we're invited to stand at its foot—ready to receive all the grace the Lord desires to give through prayer, fasting, and almsgiving.

In this episode, I talk about why I believe starting a YouTube channel has so much potential right now, despite concerns about AI and market saturation. You don't need fancy equipment or a studio; you can make genuinely good content with nothing more than your smartphone. A channel can improve both your personal and professional life, whether you work in an office or a hands-on trade. If you want more independence, visibility, or even an extra income stream, YouTube is one of the best ways to achieve all of the above.I also discuss the creative side of running a YouTube channel. Sharing useful stories, experiences, and ideas can be incredibly rewarding. At the same time, I'm honest that YouTube isn't for everyone. I touch on AI as well: it's a powerful tool, but authentic human storytelling still matters most and always will.In the end, I encourage you to start NOW instead of waiting for the "perfect" moment.I also invite you to join a behind-the-scenes look at my video production process so you can see exactly how I do it and feel confident getting started yourself!Want to see exactly what's working on YouTube in 2026?

William Layden is Co-founder and CEO at Rune, a company building modular, behind-the-meter micro data centers that plug directly into solar and wind plants. These units operate on a fully electric, DC-to-DC architecture—bypassing the traditional grid and unlocking new economics for compute at renewable energy sites.In this episode of Inevitable, Layden explains how solar clipping and curtailment leave vast amounts of clean power stranded—and how Rune's “RELIC” units turn that waste into usable compute. The conversation dives into DC architecture, Bitcoin as a beachhead market, and why traditional data centers are ill-suited to an era of distributed energy. Layden also unpacks why modular infrastructure may be the fastest path to deploying AI-scale compute at the edge of the energy transition.Episode recorded on Jan 27, 2026 (Published on Feb 17, 2026)In this episode we cover: (0:00) Intro(3:19) An overview of Rune(7:15) How energy flows and gets los in today's power stack(10:50) Clipping: the hidden inefficiency in solar(14:17) Curtailment: why the grid rejects clean energy(20:47) Starting with Bitcoin before scaling to AI workloads(25:50) Which compute loads can run interruptibly(27:26) Rune's business model and value to power producers(33:16) Where Rune operates and who's backing it(36:10) Why modular, DC-native design matters for scaleLinks:William Layden on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/william-laydenRune: https://www.rune.energy/ Enjoyed this episode?

Show: West Coast Women Rising (also airing on: Spirit, Purpose & Energy • Nutrition Alternative Medicine • Fit 2 Love • Women, Men & Relationships • Health & Wealth) Host: JJ Flizanes Guest: Sheila Donohue, Founder of Verovino (based in Ventura, CA; living in Bologna, Italy) Overview JJ welcomes back Sheila Donohue for a conversation that blends entrepreneurship, lifestyle, and the art of curated Italian wines and foods. Sheila shares how her company, Verovino, sources small-batch, farm-made wines, olive oils, and specialty foods—many not readily available in the U.S.—and delivers them to both consumers and businesses across America. In This Episode Meet Sheila in Bologna: Sheila shares her life in Bologna, Italy, where she's lived since 2001, and how Italy shaped her expertise and relationships with producers. What Verovino does: Verovino curates and imports authentic, sustainably made, small-batch products—primarily from Italy, plus select producers from other countries and California—selling B2B and direct-to-consumer. From fintech to food & wine: Sheila explains her background in financial technology (fintech), her sommelier training in Italy, and how her personal immersion in artisan food culture inspired the company. Starting from a "clean slate": In 2017, after major life changes, Sheila began building Verovino—funded through savings—and took early action by importing product and going door-to-door to find customers. How the business grows: Sheila emphasizes the importance of continuity (repeat business), building scale, and covering operating expenses. She explains how an omni-channel strategy helps stabilize the business: Distributors nationwide Wine stores & restaurants (especially in California) Direct-to-consumer shipping across the U.S. Corporate gifting & events Marketing & education that compounds: Verovino invests in education and storytelling through digital marketing—especially their blog and YouTube channel—to build long-term brand trust and demand. Product philosophy: As a sommelier-led team, Sheila curates for variety and distinction: reds, whites, rosés, orange wines, sparkling (dry and sweet), plus standout olive oils—including single-varietal olive oils with specific pairing profiles. Events as a growth engine: Sheila shares how tastings, fundraisers, private events, and collaborations introduce people to the products—because tasting creates appreciation and connection. Specialty foods: The conversation highlights a Piedmont hazelnut producer offering toasted hazelnuts, caramelized hazelnuts, hazelnut creams, pasta, and pestos—plus JJ's enthusiasm for pistachio cream and clean ingredients. Wine club & gifting: Sheila describes Verovino's monthly or quarterly wine club, curated shipments with insider notes and stories, and a growing trend of gifting memberships (including personalized letters). Gift sets: Verovino offers curated gift sets—popular in December—and a standout option that pairs wine + olive oil, plus expanded options for non-wine drinkers. A second brand line for broader appeal: To avoid being pigeonholed and to meet different market needs, Sheila shares how Verovino expanded into a separate line for more "recognizable" wines, including Prosecco and kegs—ideal for events and high-volume restaurant service. Advice for new producers: Sheila emphasizes the need to stand out in a crowded market—especially as the wine industry faces headwinds—and to clearly differentiate your product and message. Memorable Moments JJ connects her own journey as a winemaker (High Vibrational Wines) and discusses why she values small-batch, purpose-driven production over mass distribution. A fun community collaboration emerges: JJ invites Sheila to co-create a March event in Ojai with "Women Behind the Business: Real Conversations," potentially adding a wine tasting experience—and they discover their birthdays are both in March. Connect with Sheila / Verovino Website: Verovino.com YouTube: Vero Vino Instagram & Facebook: VeroVinoGusto (Links can be added to your show notes page.) Closing: JJ encourages listeners to explore Verovino for personal discovery, gifting, and creating meaningful food-and-wine experiences that bring "a taste of Italy" home.

Prudent military officers plotting battlefield strategies are mindful of an immutable fact that can undo even the most brilliant of plans: “The enemy gets a vote.”  Starting today in the state of Texas, that is literally the case. With the beginning of early voting in its open GOP primary, Democrats, independents and, yes, jihadists can vote among other things on the ballot's Proposition 10 which simply says, “Texas should prohibit sharia law.”  If only Republican Texans voted, a call for banning Islam's toxic, totalitarian and demonic ideology masquerading as a religion now being insinuated into their state would pass overwhelmingly. If they do not turn out massively, however, our sharia-supremacist enemies may well do so, and significantly skew the vote.  So, it behooves every patriotic Texan voter to turn out and say “Yes” to Prop 10 and a sharia-free Texas.

Send a textTim Seward built a 65 MPH electric moped in his garage to one-up his buddies. People wouldn't stop asking where to buy it. So he started Onyx Motors, raised almost a million bucks on Indiegogo in 3 hours… then sold the company for $1. When his successor died unexpectedly, Tim came back to rebuild from scratch. This is that story.The RCR 80V is a 91-volt electric motorbike that hits 65–75 MPH, goes 130 miles on a charge, runs Apple CarPlay, and costs about 75 cents to charge at home. It's built on a metal tube frame with swappable aluminum panels — designed from day one to be customized, modded, and made your own. Think less iPhone, more Lego kit.Tim breaks down the moped gang culture that started it all, why Americans are 20 years behind the rest of the world on two-wheeled transport, what he learned designing scooters at Bird, and why Gen Z might never buy a car.CHAPTERS0:00 – Cold Open0:00 – Intro: Who is Tim Seward?0:01 – Why Build Something That Lasts?0:03 – Moped Army & Moped Mondays0:05 – Moped Culture: US vs. the World0:07 – The Scooter Armageddon (Bird & South by Southwest)0:09 – Working at Bird & the Wheelchair-Accessible Vehicle0:11 – Red Lights & "It's Not For Sale"0:13 – The Indiegogo Campaign ($920K in Hours)0:15 – Selling Onyx for $10:18 – Losing James & Resurrecting the Brand0:21 – Starting a Company Twice0:22 – The RCR 80V: Size, Speed & Power0:25 – Regulations & Licensing0:26 – Metal vs. Plastic: Design Philosophy0:28 – Built to Customize (Not Lock Down)0:31 – CarPlay, Navigation & Built-In Tech0:33 – Mounting Points, Mods & Steady Garage0:36 – Swappable Panels & Custom Builds0:40 – Favorite Mods: Back to the Future Build0:43 – The $245B Electric Vehicle Market0:46 – Gen Z Doesn't Want Cars0:49 – Park It on the Sidewalk (or Your Desk)0:52 – Speed Modes & Motorcycle Registration0:54 – What's Next for Onyx Motors0:56 – Where to Buy + OutroLINKSOnyx Motors → https://onyxmotors.comOnyx on Instagram → https://instagram.com/onyxmotorsSteady Garage (aftermarket accessories) → https://steadygarage.comOnyx Garage (custom builds gallery) → https://onyxmotors.com/pages/garageClick Here to Subscribe: FUTR.tv focuses on startups, innovation, culture and the business of emerging tech with weekly podcasts talking with Industry leaders and deep thinkers.Occasionally we share links to products we use.

In between, we set a challenge: cross the city using only public transit and discover what makes a system feel truly effortless.The result is a rapid tour through metros, trams, the RER, buses, bike share, and even the Montmartre funicular—from Châtelet's maze to La Défense and Saint-Lazare—highlighting lessons on frequency, fares, automation, and street design.

In this episode, we explore minority stress as an accumulation of experiences—overt discrimination, microaggressions, stereotyping, exclusion, and the invisible effort of code-switching or masking. Using simple polyvagal-informed language, we look at how chronic vigilance can keep the body in mobilised protection or shutdown, and we offer practical ways to support regulation without minimising the reality of the environment. We close with a short grounding practice focused on orienting to neutral and welcoming cues, and anchoring a sense of belonging in the self.In this episode, you'll learnA clear definition of minority stress and why it belongs in a trauma-types seriesHow accumulation and anticipation create chronic nervous-system strainPolyvagal-informed patterns: hypervigilance and shutdown in response to “not-safe-enough” environmentsThe “double load” of code-switching, masking, and constant self-monitoringCommon signs (non-diagnostic): tension, sleep disruption, avoidance, over-performing, numbnessWhat helps: low-demand belonging, boundary micro-skills, resourcing after exposure, supportive validationA grounding practice designed for belonging and present-moment safety cuesGrounding practice (2–3 minutes): “Orient + Belonging Cue”Find one neutral objectFind one welcoming cue (colour, light, texture)Supportive posture with feet on the  floorPhrase: “I belong to myself” (or “I'm allowed to take up space”)Longer exhale releaseCheck the website for the free resources offered for both those affected by trauma and those supporting them.What's next: Society-Shaped Trauma (Part 2): Poverty, Insecurity & Social ExclusionSupport the show

We've glorified remote work — the flexibility, the efficiency, the freedom to work from anywhere. And don't get me wrong, I love it too. But here's what we've lost in translation: humans are wired for connection. And when it comes to deals, creative work, strategic alignment, and building real trust, Zoom just doesn't cut it. I learned this the hard way while building something with Nick Shackelford, one of the best paid ad experts in the world. We were collaborating remotely for months — different timezones, misalignment, things stalling. Then we flew him to Melbourne for four days. I'm not exaggerating: we got more done in those four days than we had in three to four months remotely. In this episode, I break down why in-person collaboration is still the most powerful tool you have as a founder, and how to use it strategically without abandoning the remote work you've built. Here's what you'll take away: Why remote tools are essential but not a replacement for face-to-face connection The data: professionals expect 36% more revenue from in-person interactions vs. virtual ones How physical proximity unlocks faster problem-solving, better ideas, and deeper trust Why deals, partnerships, and team alignment happen faster when you're in the same room The hybrid model that works: operate remotely, but meet in person strategically and frequently How to use in-person time to unblock projects, build culture, and accelerate outcomes If you're feeling stuck with a project, misaligned with a partner, or struggling to build real connection with your team, this episode will show you how to break through by getting in the same room.
