Podcasts about Stem

Ever catch yourself thinking, “I'm doing all the right things… so why do I still feel tired, foggy, or just off?” You're working out, trying to eat better, squeezing in sleep where you can, and yet your energy and longevity still feel like a question mark. If that sounds familiar, this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast is going to land right where you need it.In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Joy Kong, a UCLA-trained, triple board-certified anti-aging physician, stem cell specialist, educator, and CEO. Dr. Joy is the founder of Chara Health and Chara Biologics, and she's deeply committed to advancing regenerative medicine in a way that is ethical, effective, and accessible. She also founded the American Academy of Integrative Cell Therapy, where she trains physicians around the world in stem cell therapies and cutting-edge regenerative practices.This conversation dives headfirst into stem cells, longevity, and what it actually means to optimize your health for the long game. Dr. Joy breaks down complex science in a way that feels grounded and practical. We explore how diet, exercise, sleep, and regenerative therapies can work together not just to help you live longer, but to live better. This episode matters because longevity isn't about chasing perfection or biohacking extremes. It's about understanding your body, making informed choices, and stacking small, intentional habits that compound over time.Here are a few powerful takeaways you'll walk away with.First, stem cells are not science fiction anymore. Dr. Joy explains what stem cell therapy actually is, how it works, and why it's becoming one of the most promising tools in regenerative medicine today. She also clears up common misconceptions and emphasizes the importance of quality, sourcing, and proper medical oversight.Second, longevity starts with the basics before the breakthroughs. While regenerative therapies are exciting, Dr. Joy reinforces that diet, movement, and sleep are still foundational. Stem cells and advanced treatments work best when your lifestyle is already supporting your body's natural healing processes.Third, education is the real power play in health. One of the most inspiring parts of Dr. Joy's journey is her commitment to teaching both patients and physicians. When you understand your options, you're no longer guessing or blindly outsourcing your health. You're making confident, informed decisions.Fourth, anti-aging is really about regeneration, not vanity. This episode reframes anti-aging as restoring function, reducing inflammation, and improving quality of life. It's not about looking younger. It's about feeling strong, clear, and capable for decades to come.Finally, serving others is the ultimate form of optimization. Dr. Joy's mission goes beyond medicine. Her work is rooted in service, integrity, and raising the standard of care across the industry. That alignment between purpose and profession is what truly defines a happy hustler.If you're curious about stem cells, longevity, or how to future-proof your health in a grounded, responsible way, this episode is absolutely worth your time. Do yourself a favor and listen to the full conversation. And if it resonates, share it with someone ready to take ownership of their health and hustle with intention.What does Happy Hustlin mean to you?Dr. Joy says if it's not fun, why are we doing this? So what's the whole point? You're spending eight hours a day at this place. I want you to have fun. So that's the happy hustling, but how to keep that state.Connect with Dr. JoyInstagramFacebookTiktokLinkedinTwitterYoutubeFind Dr. Joy on her website: https://joykongmd.com/ Connect with Cary!InstagramFacebookLinkedinTwitterYoutube Get a copy of his new book, The Happy Hustle, 10 Alignments to Avoid Burnout & Achieve Blissful BalanceSign up for The Journey: 10 Days To Become a Happy Hustler Online CourseApply to the Montana Mastermind Epic Camping Adventure“It's time to Happy Hustle, a blissfully balanced life you love, full of passion, purpose, and positive impact!”Episode Sponsors:If you're feeling stressed, not sleeping great, or your energy's been kinda meh lately—let me put you on to something that's been a total game-changer for me: Magnesium Breakthrough by BiOptimizers.

LES 47God is de kracht waarop ik vertrouw.Als jij op je eigen kracht vertrouwt, heb je alle reden om ongerust, bezorgd en bang te zijn. Wat kun jij voorspellen of beheersen? Wat is er in jou waarop jij rekenen kunt? Wat kan jou het vermogen verschaffen je van alle facetten van een probleem bewust te zijn en ze zo op te lossen dat er alleen iets goeds van komen kan? Wat is er in jou dat jou de juiste oplossing als zodanig doet herkennen en jou de garantie geeft dat die zal worden bereikt?Vanuit jezelf kun je niets van dit alles. Geloven dat je dit wel kunt, is je vertrouwen schenken waar vertrouwen ongegrond is, en angst, verontrusting, depressiviteit, kwaadheid en verdriet rechtvaardigen. Wie kan zijn vertrouwen stellen in zwakheid en zich veilig voelen? Maar wie kan zijn vertrouwen stellen in kracht en zich zwak voelen?God is je veiligheid in elke omstandigheid. Zijn Stem spreekt namens Hem in alle situaties en in elk aspect van alle situaties, en zegt je precies wat jou te doen staat om een beroep te doen op Zijn bescherming en Zijn kracht. Er zijn geen uitzonderingen, want God kent geen uitzonderingen. En de Stem die namens Hem spreekt, denkt zoals Hij.Vandaag zullen we proberen aan je eigen zwakheid voorbij te gaan om naar de Bron van werkelijke kracht te reiken. Er zijn vandaag vier oefenperioden van vijf minuten nodig, en langer en vaker dan dat is sterk aan te raden. Sluit je ogen en begin zoals gewoonlijk met de herhaling van het idee van deze dag. Neem dan een minuut of twee om naar situaties in je leven te zoeken die jij met angst beladen hebt, en zet ze een voor een van je af door tegen jezelf te zeggen:God is de kracht waarop ik vertrouw.Probeer nu aan alle zorgen die verband houden met je eigen gevoel van ontoereikendheid te ontsnappen. Het is duidelijk dat elke situatie die jou zorgen baart, gepaard gaat met gevoelens van ontoereikendheid, want anders zou je geloven dat je de situatie met succes het hoofd kon bieden. Niet door op jezelf te vertrouwen zul je vertrouwen krijgen. Maar de kracht van God in jou slaagt in alles.De erkenning van je eigen zwakheid is een noodzakelijke stap in de correctie van je vergissingen, maar het is beslist onvoldoende om jou het vertrouwen te geven dat jij nodig hebt, en dat jou toekomt. Je moet je er ook bewust van worden dat vertrouwen in je werkelijke kracht in elk opzicht en in alle omstandigheden volkomen gerechtvaardigd is.Probeer in de laatste fase van de oefenperiode diep in je denkgeest een plek van ware veiligheid te bereiken. Je zult weten dat je die hebt bereikt als je een gevoel van diepe vrede ervaart, hoe kort ook. Laat alle onbenulligheden los die aan de oppervlakte van je denkgeest borrelen en kolken, en reik in de diepte daaronder naar het Koninkrijk der Hemelen. Er is een plaats in jou waar volmaakte vrede heerst. Er is een plaats in jou waar niets onmogelijk is. Er is een plaats in jou waar de kracht van God verblijft.Herhaal het idee deze dag vaak. Gebruik het als jouw antwoord op elke verstoring. Onthoud dat vrede jouw recht is, omdat je de kracht van God jouw vertrouwen schenkt.Alle tekst- werk en handboek klassen van Een Cursus in Wonderen met Elbert nu te beluisteren en te bekijken op https://decursusmetelbert.nl

In today's session, we dive deep into the mechanics of why lower back pain and sciatica flare up, even when you think you are doing the right things. The core of the issue is often "movement leakage," where motion intended for your hips or upper body inadvertently puts stress on an injured lumbar segment. Whether you are dealing with a herniated disc at L4/5 or L5/S1, these tissues have a reduced capacity for stress. When you move incorrectly—such as rounding your spine during a bent-over row or a simple daily task—you aggravate those vulnerable tissues. Understanding this is the first step toward moving away from the cycle of chronic pain and toward a structured rehabilitation programme.We also challenge the common misconception that more bending and stretching is the solution for a stiff back. If movement is what caused the aggravation, it is rarely logical to focus your recovery on more bending and twisting of the injured area. Instead, the priority must be to stabilise and protect the spine through isometric contraction and proper technique. By building a foundation of strength through exercises like squats and hip hinges, you teach your body to shield the injured segments, allowing the healing process to take place without constant re-injury.### Key Topics Covered

El adiós de un gigante del aire. ✈️La primera generación del Airbus Beluga (A300-600ST) se retira definitivamente tras el fracaso de su reconversión comercial. Airbus intentó dar una segunda vida a estos espectaculares aviones de carga creando Airbus Beluga Transport, pero el mercado no respondió como se esperaba.En este vídeo analizamos:Por qué el Airbus Beluga original fue clave en la logística industrial europea.Las diferencias técnicas frente al Airbus Beluga XL.Por qué su alcance limitado (4.000 km) pudo condenar el proyecto.Qué ocurrió con la destrucción del Antonov An-225 Mriya y el impacto en el mercado de transporte pesado.Qué futuro les espera a estos aviones: museo, laboratorios STEM o desguace.Y por qué España se queda sin una de estas unidades pese a tener la factoría de Getafe.El Beluga nació para transportar alas completas, fuselajes y componentes entre las plantas de Airbus en Toulouse, Hamburgo, Broughton y Getafe. Su sustituto, el Beluga XL, derivado del A330, puede transportar hasta dos alas completas y más de 50 toneladas.Pero cuando Airbus intentó competir en el mercado civil de cargas especiales —motores aeronáuticos, helicópteros, satélites, maquinaria industrial— la ecuación económica no cuadró.También repasamos otros gigantes históricos del transporte aéreo como el Super Guppy, el Boeing 747 Dreamlifter o el mítico Antonov An-225.Un capítulo más en la historia de los superaviones de carga.Si te apasiona la aviación, la ingeniería y las grandes máquinas del aire, este viaje es para ti.

In this episode, we go quantum! Our host Rashan Senanayake sits down with Professor Craig Costello, a leading cryptographer from Queensland University of Technology and former Microsoft Research scientist, to demystify how cryptography quietly secures our everyday digital lives, from emails, online banking, and messaging apps to the global systems we rely on, and why these foundations must evolve as quantum computing becomes a reality, exploring what post-quantum cryptography really means, how quantum computers threaten today's cybersecurity standards, how quantum-resistant global security frameworks are being developed, and why mathematics, education, and early exposure to STEM remain critical to shaping a secure digital future for education, technology, government, and business alike.

In honor of the 100th anniversary of what we now know to be Black History Month in the U.S., we are re-airing a special episode. In the roughly two years since we recorded this episode, public education, especially STEM education and research, has been under attack. This presents a formidable threat to the success of Black innovators today and in the future. Elijah McCoy, Garret Morgan, George Washington Carver, and Madame CJ Walker are names you might recognize. They're Black inventors whose inventions modernized the world. But they may also be the only names you recognize when you think of Black inventors. Due to racism and other discriminatory structural barriers, potential Black inventors have been locked out, or in some cases violently forced out, of invention pipelines. On this episode of Justice Above All, Dr. Kesha Moore, TMI Research Manager, takes a deep dive into the world of innovation and tracks how racism has undermined scientific innovation. She is joined by the following guests: - Tiffani Burgess, Assistant Counsel, Legal Defense Fund - Eric S. Hintz, Historian, Lemelson Center - Corey Mack, Inventor This episode was written and produced by Jakiyah Bradley, Keecee DeVenny, Jackie O'Neil, and Dr. Kesha Moore.

In this expansive and illuminating episode of Wake Up with Joni, Joni sits down with Dr. Jeffrey Gross, neurosurgeon and founder of ReCELLebrate, to explore the evolving frontier of regenerative medicine, longevity, stem cell activation, exosomes, peptides, and conscious biohacking. Together, they bridge science and spirit, unpacking what it truly means to heal at the cellular level — not by "fixing what's broken," but by restoring the body's innate intelligence and capacity for regeneration. Dr. Gross shares his personal evolution from traditional neurosurgery into regenerative medicine, explains stem cells and exosomes in clear, accessible language, and offers powerful insights into inflammation, aging, brain health, joint repair, autoimmune conditions, cancer considerations, and the future of personalized medicine — including AI, plant-derived exosomes, and precision biohacking. This conversation is as much about energy, vitality, and consciousness as it is about biology — a reminder that when the body is regulated and supported, the spirit has room to thrive. ✨ What You'll Learn in This Episode Why regenerative medicine represents a paradigm shift in healthcare The real difference between stem cells and exosomes How inflammation drives aging — and how to reverse it How exosomes deliver healing messages at the cellular level The role of peptides in longevity, brain health, muscle, mood, and metabolism Plant-derived exosomes and why they dramatically increase nutrient absorption Stem cells, joints, cartilage repair, and avoiding surgery Brain health, nasal delivery, and cognitive vitality Natural killer cells, senescent ("zombie") cells, and biological aging The future of precision medicine, AI, and personalized healing Where to begin if you want to optimize health, energy, and longevity

In an age where technology is rapidly evolving, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into educational tools has become increasingly significant. One such innovation is the AI companion robot, exemplified by the latest offering from Shanghai Whalesbot, named Pubbo. This interactive educational robot is designed to enhance children's learning experiences by combining the principles of AI, robotics, and STEM education. As discussed by Slade Jia, Global Consumer Marketing Manager from Whalesbot, Pubbo represents a significant advancement in how children can engage with technology for educational purposes.The Role of AI in LearningAI has transformed various aspects of our lives, and its application in education is particularly promising. Pubbo serves as a bridge between traditional learning methods and modern technological advancements. Unlike conventional educational tools, Pubbo offers a dynamic and interactive learning environment. It is not merely a robotic pet; it is a companion that can engage children in meaningful ways. By utilizing advanced AI technology, Pubbo can interact with children, answer questions, tell stories, and even assist with homework. This functionality allows it to act as a tutor, providing personalized support to children, which is particularly beneficial in a world where parents often struggle to find time to engage with their children's educational needs.Interactive Learning ExperienceOne of the standout features of Pubbo is its ability to facilitate conversations and interactions that go beyond simple commands. As Slade Jia highlighted, Pubbo can respond to children's queries about various topics, such as the weather or scientific concepts, thanks to its integration with large language models like ChatterBot and Gemini. This capability not only makes learning more engaging but also encourages children to explore their curiosity in a safe and supportive environment. The robot's ability to tell stories and sing songs adds an element of fun to the learning process, making it more likely that children will retain information and develop a love for learning.Moreover, the interactive nature of Pubbo allows for a two-way communication channel, where children can express their thoughts and feelings. This is particularly important in today's fast-paced world, where many parents are busy and may not have the time to engage in lengthy discussions with their children. Pubbo fills this gap by providing companionship and educational support, ultimately fostering a more enriching learning experience.Enhancing STEM EducationPubbo is designed not only to entertain but also to educate, particularly in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).

The Space Show Presents Mark Whittington, Sunday, Feb. 1, 2026Quick Summary:Our program began with followed by conversations about the Artemis II mission and space technology advancements. The group explored various aspects of space exploration, including Iran's space program, lunar missions, and the development of space suits and launch systems. The discussion concluded with conversations about AI in journalism, nuclear reactor technologies, and the upcoming Artemis II mission, including its potential for public celebration and media coverage.Detailed SummaryOur Zoom program Wisdom Team discussed the Artemis II mission, with Mark expressing confidence in its success. They also talked about the challenges of keeping up with rapidly advancing technology and the stock market, particularly in the space industry. David expressed interest in doing a show about space-related ETFs but felt that Andrew, who focuses on his own ETF, might not be the best person for it given there now a plethora of space focused ETFs.After introducing Mark Whittington as the guest for the Sunday space show, we discussed Iran's space program. Mark explained that while Iran's space program is not robust by global standards, it serves dual purposes, potentially threatening global security. He suggested that if Iran were to transition to a more freedom-oriented regime, preserving and developing their space program could be beneficial for economic growth and inspiring young Iranians to pursue STEM subjects.Mark continued talking about Iran's space program, highlighting its development of launch vehicles and satellites, and its potential to support a nuclear program. He suggested that a post-Islamic Republic Iran could benefit economically from continuing its space program and joining international initiatives like the Artemis Accords. David inquired about the U.S. government's perspective on Iran's space program, and Mark noted that concerns primarily focus on its nuclear capabilities. They briefly touched on the potential for military action against Iranian spaceports and the possibility of Reza Pahlavi returning as a stabilizing figure in Iran. The conversation concluded with a brief mention of the upcoming Artemis II mission.Mark discussed the Artemis II mission in some detail, addressing concerns about the heat shield and NASA's confidence in its workarounds. He highlighted the mission's potential impact on American society, comparing media coverage then and now, and expressed hope that Artemis II would be a significant story. Mark also noted the mission's duration of 10 days, including a loop around the moon, and emphasized the diversity of the crew. David shared a question from a listener about potential lunar payload or surface interaction during Artemis II, which Mark clarified does not involve landing on the moon but rather a loop around it.We continued focusing on the Artemis program and lunar exploration. Mark explained that CubeSats will launch with Orion but won't be lunar landers, and SpaceX and Blue Origin are developing lunar landers. The next Starship test is expected in 5 weeks, aiming to refuel in low Earth orbit and land on the moon. John Jossy inquired about ESA's life support system test, which Mark confirmed is part of the systems test in low Earth orbit. Marshall asked about reusability of the Space Launch System's solid rocket boosters, to which Mark replied they are not planned to be reusable due to the infrequent use of the system.Our team discussed public excitement and historical significance of the Artemis II mission, with Mark noting that while Artemis II should be the story of the year, public awareness and support may be lower than during the Apollo missions. They discussed the upcoming Starship test in 5 weeks as a potential rival for public attention, and explored the possibility of live TV coverage during the mission, including the crew's perspective of Earth rise. Mark suggested that the crew should be allowed to express their personal thoughts and experiences during the mission rather than following a pre-determined script.Our team also discussed the inspirational impact of Earthrise, with Marshall sharing his perspective on the spiritual connection to celestial objects. Mark and Marshall exchanged views on the role of mathematics and physics in understanding the universe, while David inquired about public perceptions of space exploration versus Earth's economic concerns. Mark highlighted the potential economic benefits of space travel and SpaceX's upcoming IPO, as well as Elon Musk's plans for AI data centers in orbit, powered by a network of satellites. The conversation concluded with a discussion on the development of space-based solar power and its potential to overcome the limitations of solar energy on Earth, with our guest emphasizing the importance of diverse energy sources like nuclear and natural gas.Mark discussed the development of lunar spacesuits, noting that Axiom Space is the prime contractor and progress is ongoing, with suits expected to be ready by 2028. He also addressed the potential merger between SpaceX and Tesla, suggesting it would create a holding company with separate divisions, and discussed the development of Optimus robots for space exploration. Mark highlighted the success of NASA Administrator Bill Nelson, who was confirmed after a tumultuous process, and expressed optimism about Artemis II's upcoming launch and its potential to generate momentum for future space missions. He also touched on the challenges of transitioning from SLS to commercial systems for future Artemis missions, noting that while there are concerns about delays, the goal remains to build a lunar base.Our group discussed historical SpaceX launch operations, particularly focusing on the Falcon 1 rocket launches from Kwajalein Atoll in the Pacific. David explained that while Kwajalein offered advantages like reduced orbital velocity requirements due to its equatorial location, the 8,000-mile supply line and classified military operations at the site ultimately led SpaceX to shift operations to other locations including Vandenberg and Boca Chica. The discussion concluded with Marshall recalling the Celestas Memorial payload incident, where a Falcon 1 rocket failed to reach orbit and instead crashed into the Marianas Trench, though the exact crash location was never publicly disclosed by SpaceX.John Hunt proposed a fallback plan for Starship's on-orbit refueling, involving an unmanned variant with an exploration upper stage as a third stage, to reduce costs for lunar missions. Mark and David discussed the potential of nuclear power and propulsion in space, as well as the integration of such technologies into Starship for Mars missions.

L'importanza della formazione in ambito Stem è motivo di grande dibattito nel mondo accademico. Molto meno sensibilizzata invece è l'opinione pubblica, perché? Maria Latella ne parla con Francesca Ferlaino (nella foto a sx), fisica quantistica italiana e l'on. Marta Schifone (nella foto a dx), capogruppo in Commissione Lavoro alla Camera per FDI.

From Literacy to Savviness: Rethinking How We Learn with AI (EP:45) With Chris Minter, PHD How do we stay thoughtful, skilled, and grounded as AI accelerates faster than our instincts can adapt? In this episode, we explore the shift from simply knowing about AI to becoming truly savvy in how we use it. Chris Minter invites us to consider how contextual inputs, desired outputs, and intentional engagement shape our ability to think clearly in an age of intelligent tools. Together, we examine the balance between efficiency and depth, the risks of over‑reliance and “AI slop,” and the importance of protecting our own voice, judgment, and craftsmanship as educators and learning leaders.

What if the way you love your daughter today shapes her marriage 20 years from now?

Ever feel like you did everything “right” and still got sidelined? We sit down with Andrea Mohamed, COO and co‑founder of QuantumBloom, to unpack why so many women exit tech and what it takes to build workplaces they won't want to leave. Andrea traces her journey from first‑gen college student to strategy executive and founder, sharing how an MBA unlocked confidence and how glass-cliff roles, nitpicky performance feedback, and unspoken power dynamics still got in the way. The message is clear and practical: stop blaming individuals and start redesigning systems, while equipping women early with the skills that make influence, advocacy, and staying power feel natural.We dig into the critical inflection points where women quietly disengage: the first year after a STEM degree, the leap to management, and the jump to senior leadership, where relationships and influence matter more than output. Andrea explains why the school playbook fails at work, how to unlearn “merit-only” thinking, and what durable skills, communication, negotiation, and cross-functional trust look like in real roles. We talk about psychological safety, manager capability, and pro-family flexibility that benefits everyone, not just mothers, and how these choices change retention.The conversation turns tactical for leaders and HR. Learn to quantify turnover, model retention ROI, and speak the CFO's language so talent programs no longer get cut. Andrea outlines how HR can evolve, as modern marketing did, moving from “arts and crafts” to a revenue partner, by connecting programs to profit. We also address DEI headwinds, the tall poppy problem, and the courage it takes to be values-aligned and visible without burning out. If you care about keeping women in STEM, building fair systems, and turning excellence into advancement, this one gives you the data, the playbook, and the push.If this resonates, follow, share with a colleague who leads teams, and leave a quick review so more people can find the show. Your feedback helps us keep these conversations bold and useful.Resources:Quantum Bloom is helping companies retain and advance women in STEM by fixing the systems that push them out Andrea Mohamed on LinkedInGet the LinkedIn Visibility Foundation.

Andrea Beaty is an award-winning children's author. Before she became known for her curious and clever characters in Rosie Revere, Engineer, and Ada Twist, Scientist, she was on track for a career in STEM. In college, Beaty studied biology and computer science, and then went on to work at a software company. Her start in writing came when she volunteered to write a tech support newsletter for a customer audience. The job helped Beaty hone her skills as a writer and copy editor years before she decided to try her hand at fiction. She started by writing stories inspired by the books she read to her kids before getting published in the 2000s. Since then, Beaty's work has landed her on the New York Times Best Sellers list multiple times and has even been adapted into an award-winning Netflix animated series. She often credits her time as a technical writer as what gave her the skills to break down big concepts and life lessons for kids. Now, more than 20 years after her first book was written, Beaty shows no signs of slowing down with more stories on the way this year.
