Poverty is a key driver of health disparities. But numerous policies have been shown to help alleviate poverty and improve health equity, according to Dr. Rita Hamad, associate professor of social and behavioral sciences at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. Hamad says policymakers need to look upstream and identify the root causes of health issues. “And really recognizing that poverty is one of the major root causes of those issues, and that if we don't address that… those health issues are just going to keep arising and not getting any better,” she says.  On this episode of the Health Disparities podcast, Hamad speaks with Movement Is Life's Dr. Charla Johnson about evidence-based policies for alleviating poverty — like the child tax credit, earned income tax credit — and explains how healthcare systems can get more involved in bolstering the social safety net.

This episode explores complex halachic issues regarding repairing or reassembling household items on Shabbat. We delve into cases such as fixing loose hinges on cabinets, reassembling beds and goblets, and using everyday objects to support structural elements like beams. Practical guidance is provided on when actions constitute prohibited building or the final act of completion (makkeh b'patish), and when leniencies apply for loosely fitted or temporary repairs.

In the second installment of our Deep Dive: Missing Middle in Climate Tech series, created in partnership with Spring Lane Capital, we dive deeper into why the “missing middle” is not just a gap; it's a structural issue. We're joined by two of the sharpest minds in climate investing: Francis O'Sullivan, Managing Director at S2G Investments, and Rob Day, Co-Founder of Spring Lane Capital. Together, they explore how early-stage innovation and late-stage deployment are well funded, while the crucial middle phase of scaling is dangerously underserved.We discuss why this gap exists, what solutions are emerging, and how investors are shifting their strategies to meet the moment. If you care about accelerating the climate transition, you're going to want to listen to this.What You'll LearnWhy the "missing middle" persists despite surging climate capital overallHow venture capital models can distort scale-up potentialWhat new capital strategies (like development expense financing) are emergingWhy climate investing now enters a “third phase” of full-scale deploymentHow Rob and Francis are rethinking returns and risk for the climate transitionIn today's episode, we cover:[2:50] Francis' background and journey to S2G[4:36] Rob's career path in climate tech investing[6:30] Spring Lane Capital's founding and investment thesis[9:54] Discussion of the missing middle in climate finance[19:04] Structural challenges in climate investment[25:46] Organizational challenges for institutional investors[33:57] Concrete investment examples[41:37] Explanation of structured investment instruments[44:26] Historical context of climate investingResources MentionedS2G InvestmentsSpring Lane CapitalWorld Resources InstituteInvested in Climate - Missing Middle in Climate Tech Series: The Role of Family Offices with Spring Lane Capital & CREO, Ep #114S2G: 2023 Report - The Missing Middle: Capital Imbalances in the Energy TransitionCREO: 2024 Report - Understanding the Climate Finance GapSolunaConnect with UsJason RissmanRob DayFrancis O'SullivanSpring Lane CapitalWebsite: https://springlanecapital.com/Linkedin:

In today's episode, we sat down for part 2 of our discussion with Elizabeth Mittendorf, MD, PhD, MHCM, the 2026-2027 president-elect of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO). Dr Mittendorf holds numerous leadership roles, including the Robert and Karen Hale Distinguished Chair in Surgical Oncology and vice chair for research in the Department of Surgery at Brigham and Women's Hospital; co-leader of the Breast Program and director of the Breast Immuno-Oncology Program at the Dana-Farber Brigham Cancer Center; co-leader of the Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute; and a professor of surgery at Harvard Medical School, all in Boston, Massachusetts. In this discussion, Dr Mittendorf shared how ASCO is strategically preparing to address the long-term implications of proposed federal research funding cuts. She emphasized the significant return on investment generated by sustained NIH support, underscoring its role in fostering scientific innovation and stimulating the broader economy. She also advocated for structural reforms to be developed collaboratively with researchers, institutions, and policymakers to ensure continued progress in oncology is maintained, particularly in underfunded areas, such as prevention research. Dr Mittendorf also previewed her broader vision for ASCO, including expanding global collaboration and advancing equitable access to cancer care. She noted that these efforts will be complemented by continued emphasis on multidisciplinary care delivery and mentorship, which she discussed in more detail in part one of our conversation.

When we see injustice in the world, our instinct is often to look for someone to blame. We might point to a corrupt official, an unjust law, or individuals acting with harmful intent. But some of the most persistent and damaging injustices of our time, including climate change, homelessness, systemic racism and gender inequality, do not have a single perpetrator. These are what philosopher Iris Marion Young described as structural injustices. They are not caused by individual malice, but by the ordinary functioning of our social, political and economic systems.At first glance, this kind of injustice might seem beyond the reach of the law. There is no obvious villain to prosecute and no specific rule to repeal. But what if we have misunderstood what the law is capable of? What if legal systems are not just passive frameworks but active players in how injustice takes shape?In this episode, we speak with George Letsas, Professor of the Philosophy of Law at University College London. He presents a powerful and original argument. The law, he suggests, is often implicated in structural injustice. But it is also one of the most promising tools we have to address it.Mentioned in this episode:Structural injustice and the law, free download from UCL Discovery UCL's Department of Political Science and School of Public Policy offers a uniquely stimulating environment for the study of all fields of politics, including international relations, political theory, human rights, public policy-making and administration.

This is Zack Fuss. Today, we're tackling a giant in a controversial and incredibly complex industry, UnitedHealth Group. At its recent apex, UNH was a half-trillion-dollar market cap business, the 15th largest listed business in the United States. Today, that market cap sits at just $275 billion. The company generates an excess of $400 billion in sales annually and produces $40 billion in EBITDA as it touches every facet of the American healthcare system. To break down UnitedHealthcare, I'm joined by Stephanie Niven, a co-PM of the Global Sustainable Equity Strategy within the Sustainable Equity Team at Ninety One. Stephanie has been following the company since 2012 and she helps us to unravel this intricate business. We explore how UnitedHealthcare operates as a fully integrated healthcare system from its insurance arm to its high-margin health services business. We also dive into the concept of value-based care, the recent headwinds from Medicare Advantage scrutiny, and whether the market is mispricing this complex giant amidst regulatory noise and leadership changes. Please enjoy this breakdown of UnitedHealth Group. ⁠⁠Subscribe⁠⁠ to Colossus Review For the full show notes, transcript, and links to the best content to learn more, check out the episode page⁠ ⁠here⁠⁠. —- This episode is brought to you by Octus, formerly Reorg, is the essential credit intelligence and data provider for nearly 40,000 professionals across the world's leading buy side firms, investment banks, law firms and advisory firms.

In this episode of Workplace Stories, Dani Johnson talks with Cher Murphy, Partner, Head of People+Talent Practice at ON Partner, founder of The Murphy Advisory, and faculty member at Pepperdine and the University of Michigan. Drawing from her deep experience in executive coaching and leadership development, Cher shares how leadership is evolving in response to rapid technological, political, and organizational change. She emphasizes that while AI and data can enhance decision-making, human traits like discernment, empathy, and the ability to communicate clearly remain irreplaceable. Leaders today must move from a mindset of control to one of clarity, especially as strategic planning windows shorten and collaboration across functions becomes essential.Cher also reflects on the erosion of trust in organizations and how leaders can rebuild it through transparency, consistency, and shared logic. She introduces the concept of leadership as a system—not just a set of traits—which, when embedded across all levels of an organization, can outlast any one individual. The conversation touches on the future of leadership development, the convergence of people functions, and how leaders can balance data and intuition to make better decisions. Ultimately, Cher makes a compelling case that strong leadership is still—at its core—a deeply human endeavor.You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in...(00:00) — Intro & Cher's background(04:00) — Leadership mindsets, speed, and trust(12:00) — Rebuilding trust & communication challenges(20:00) — Structural shifts and cross-functional collaboration(26:00) — AI's role, human skills, and decision-making(32:00) — Universal leadership traits & leadership as a system(39:00) — Succession, culture fit, and final reflections on meaningResources & People Mentionedhttps://www.onpartners.comhttps://www.jeffwetzler.comConnect with Cher MurphyConnect with Cher Murphy on LinkedInConnect With Red Thread ResearchWebsite: Red Thread ResearchOn LinkedInOn FacebookOn TwitterSubscribe to WORKPLACE STORIES

Trust in universities has cratered, ideological divisions are deepening, and the future of higher education is hotly contested. How do we repair our academic institutions without tearing them down entirely? Today on Heterodox Out Loud, host John Tomasi welcomes Michael Roth, President of Wesleyan University, historian, and esteemed thought leader on liberal education, for a frank and probing dialogue. Drawing on recent Gallup polling data, Michael and John examine the collapse of public trust in higher education, particularly among conservatives, and the orchestrated efforts across the spectrum to delegitimize academic institutions. Michael discusses the double bind facing universities: the hard-won gains in gender, racial, and religious inclusion overlaying a stark decline in viewpoint and ideological diversity among faculty and students. The discussion traverses the enduring tensions between diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives and the imperative of open inquiry. Roth critiques both anti-elitist grievance-mongering and the insularity of academic circles, arguing for an educational environment that prizes rigorous debate, intellectual pluralism, and genuine mutual respect. Together, Tomasi and Roth confront thorny questions: How do universities maintain their relevance in a polarized society? Is the narrowing of acceptable discourse stifling academic innovation? And what role should university leaders play amid mounting political interventions and societal pressures? In This Episode:

Podcast Show Notes: Scoliosis Treatment with Dr. Tony Nalda Episode Title: From Pain to Play – Scott's Adult Scoliosis Recovery Story Episode Summary: What happens when scoliosis shows up later in life? In this inspiring episode of Scoliosis Treatment with Dr. Tony Nalda, we follow Scott's journey—an active father who suddenly found himself sidelined by back pain, only to discover it was due to undiagnosed scoliosis. Through focused, non-surgical treatment at the Scoliosis Reduction Center, Scott not only regained function but dramatically reduced his curves—proving that with the right mindset and commitment, healing is possible at any age. What You'll Learn: ✅ Scoliosis Isn't Just for Teens Adult scoliosis can develop or worsen due to compression and gravity Unlike kids, adults often experience pain even with smaller curves ✅ Why Maintenance Care Isn't Enough General chiropractic may ease discomfort but doesn't correct the curve Structural change requires scoliosis-specific, multi-dimensional treatment ✅ Scott's Transformation Started with four curves ranging from 15–30° Reduced all four curves to under 10° after just two treatment intensives Regained abilities like lifting his kids, shooting hoops, and playing soccer again ✅ The Power of Commitment The key to success? Consistency and dedication Age isn't the barrier—effort and follow-through are Dr. Nalda emphasizes that adult patients can see incredible results when they follow the plan Key Takeaway: Scoliosis doesn't have to define your limits. With personalized care, the right guidance, and commitment, even adult scoliosis can be improved—without surgery. Resources & Links:

A diverse healthcare workforce is critical to improving outcomes for our diverse nation. In order to achieve this, there needs to be both a pipeline and a pathway, says Dr. Valerie Montgomery Rice, President and CEO of Morehouse School of Medicine. “We need students to believe what's possible in first grade and then chart a path,” she says. Montgomery Rice says her own love and science and people led her to chart her career pathway that led her into academic medicine. “What if everybody was given that opportunity. What if everybody was told you can be whatever you want to be?” “Every one of my roles has been about how to develop people to bring their best self to work,” she says. Although health equity work can be polarized and be perceived as political, Montgomery Rice says Morehouse School of Medicine is committed to leading the creation and advancement of health equity — both through new solutions and through complementing existing ones.  The heart of her message on health equity: It's about “giving people what they need, when they need it, to achieve optimal level of health.” Montgomery Rice spoke with Movement Is Life's Dr. Carla Harwell for this episode, which was recorded at Movement Is Life's annual health equity summit.

The climate transition requires not just allocating trillions of dollars to scale new technologies, build new infrastructure, and transform incumbent industries – it requires getting the right mix of capital to develop, grow, and eventually scale innovations. In the world of climate, promising technologies too often don't find the growth-stage capital that's needed before large institutional investors can finance reaching scale. Addressing this missing middle is a structural challenge that requires more attention, and today's episode is the first in a series of discussions on the missing middle in climate, developed in partnership with Spring Lane Capital. In this conversation, I'm joined by Jason Scott, a long-time climate investor who is Partner in Residence at Spring Lane Capital and also Board Chair of CREO Syndicate, and Régine Clément, CEO at CREO Syndicate. Spring Lane has been investing for years in the missing middle and has unique expertise in the challenges and opportunities it holds. If you haven't heard of CREO, this is a group you should know. CREO works to help family offices invest more in climate. Families hold over $10 trillion in assets and can bring versatility and resilience that can help improve climate finance. CREO is working to mobilize $1 trillion for climate in the coming years. We talk about insights from their recent report on the missing middle, how climate investing has evolved in recent years, the role of catalytic capital, whether investors are backing away from climate amidst changing policy and macro-factors, and much more.This was a great kick-off for our Deep Dive: Missing Middle in Climate Tech series, and I hope it piques your interest in the other episodes as well. And, if it piques your interest about partnering on a topical series of your own, don't hesitate to reach out.

We often think of trauma as a deeply personal experience, shaped by our childhood, relationships, and emotional wounds. But what if some of our deepest pain didn't start with us? What if trauma is embedded in the very systems we're born into - our medical institutions, cultural ideologies, and societal norms? In today's episode, we're joined by Dr. Tayla Shanaye, somatic therapist, scholar, and expert in birth trauma and structural oppression. Tayla joins Elisabeth and Jennifer for a powerful exploration of how ideologies like white supremacy, patriarchy, and ableism don't just shape policies, they live in our bodies, shaping how we birth, connect, and heal. Together, they discuss the medicalization of childbirth, the systemic invalidation of birthing bodies, and how trauma is passed down generationally through embodied experiences. This episode invites us to look at birth as more than a physical event, it's a moment of transformation, a portal, and for many, a site of trauma that is rarely acknowledged. Tayla also shares deeply personal stories of pregnancy, birth, and healing, highlighting the need for preparation, integration, and community-based support to create a culture where somatic safety and agency are the norm. You'll hear how nervous system awareness, collective ritual, and somatic abolitionism can radically change how we relate to our bodies and to each other. If you've ever felt broken by birth, silenced in your experience, or curious about how deep healing begins at the structural level, this episode is for you. Topics discussed in this episode: ● The medicalization of birth and its traumatic impact ● Why trauma is systemic—not just personal ● How ideologies like racism and patriarchy are embodied ● The role of the nervous system in healing generational trauma ● Somatic healing and reclaiming bodily agency ● Historical roots of obstetric violence and experimentation ● The missing rituals of birth preparation and integration ● How voice, safety, and co-regulation shape our healing ● The vision of community-led, embodied care ● Why embodiment is key to creating real culture Ready to reclaim your voice, your safety, and your power?

You may have heard of the critical brain hypothesis. It goes something like this: brain activity operates near a dynamical regime called criticality, poised at the sweet spot between too much order and too much chaos, and this is a good thing because systems at criticality are optimized for computing, they maximize information transfer, they maximize the time range over which they operate, and a handful of other good properties. John Beggs has been studying criticality in brains for over 20 years now. His 2003 paper with Deitmar Plenz is one of of the first if not the first to show networks of neurons operating near criticality, and it gets cited in almost every criticality paper I read. John runs the Beggs Lab at Indiana University Bloomington, and a few years ago he literally wrote the book on criticality, called The Cortex and the Critical Point: Understanding the Power of Emergence, which I highly recommend as an excellent introduction to the topic, and he continues to work on criticality these days. On this episode we discuss what criticality is, why and how brains might strive for it, the past and present of how to measure it and why there isn't a consensus on how to measure it, what it means that criticality appears in so many natural systems outside of brains yet we want to say it's a special property of brains. These days John spends plenty of effort defending the criticality hypothesis from critics, so we discuss that, and much more. Beggs Lab.

Seventeen years.One missing child.A thousand headlines.And still—no answers. But what if the real story isn't the one we were told? In this bold, fictionalized follow-up to The Guilty Files: Uncovered, host Dani peels back the layers of the Madeleine McCann case—not to rewrite the facts, but to rewire how we think about them. Using her background in law enforcement, psychology, and sociology, Dani walks listeners through nine dramatized acts that reimagine what might have happened that night in Praia da Luz. From a tourist who saw something but said nothing, to a grief-stricken forensic scientist who twisted the truth, to a final confession decades too late—this isn't just crime storytelling. This is speculative justice. Along the way, Dani confronts the institutional flaws that shaped the investigation, the class privilege that distorted public perception, and the uncomfortable questions we've all been too afraid to ask. Plus, he shares a personal story from his time as a beat officer in Atlanta—a haunting parallel that brings this fictional journey crashing into reality. 

Free articles and courses about movement from Bill Hartman at http://uhp.network Episode 63 OverviewChris and Bill critically examine traditional motor control models in movement science, contrasting them with the Unified Health and Performance Continuum (UHPC) model. Their discussion challenges reductionist, brain-centric explanations of movement, advocating instead for an emergent, systems-based perspective that emphasizes adaptability, energy flow, and problem-solving in human movement. The episode is rich with practical analogies, clinical reasoning, and real-world examples to illustrate the limitations of conventional approaches and the strengths of the UHPC framework.Key Topics & Chapter Highlights00:00 – Introduction01:14 – Critique of Reductionism08:24 – Emergence and Complexity13:47 – Energy Flow and Gradients16:46 – Adaptation as Solution, Not Dysfunction18:19 – Integrating Tools, Rethinking Reasoning20:47 – Continuum of Health and Performance24:10 – Case Example: Knee Pain32:12 – Observation and Iteration33:53 – Systemic vs. Isolated SolutionsKey TakeawaysThe UHPC model views movement as an emergent, adaptive behavior shaped by energy flow, constraints, and systemic problem-solving-not just neural control or isolated muscle activation.Variability and adaptability are hallmarks of healthy movement; reductionist models that seek to eliminate variation can increase fragility.Practitioners should focus on expanding movement options and adaptability, using observation, questioning, and experimentation rather than rigid protocols.Structural adaptations are context-dependent solutions, not inherently dysfunctional.Effective clinical reasoning requires moving beyond static anatomical models and embracing complexity, energy dynamics, and the continuum between health and performance.Communication, curiosity, and willingness to question established paradigms are essential for practitioner growth and improved client outcomes.LEARN MOREJOIN the UHP Network to learn directly from Bill through articles, videos and courses.http://UHP.network TRAIN WITH BILLInterested in the only training program based on Bill Hartman's Model?https://www.reconu.co SUBSCRIBE for even more helpful content:YT: https://www.youtube.com/@BillHartmanPTIG: https://www.instagram.com/bill_hartman_pt/FB: https://www.facebook.com/BillHartmanPTWEB: https://billhartmanpt.com/Podcast audio:https://open.spotify.com/show/7cJM6v5S38RLroac6BQjrd?si=eca3b211dafc4202https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/reconsider-with-bill-hartman/id1662268221or download with YT Premium

In this encore episode, we detail the pathophysiology of intestinal methanogen overgrowth (IMO), hydrogen-dominant small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (H₂-SIBO), and hydrogen sulfide-dominant SIBO (H₂S-SIBO), discussing their mechanistic interactions and overlap. We discuss methanogenic archaea, as well hydrogen sulfide- and hydrogen-producing microbes and their contributions to altered gastrointestinal motility, epithelial barrier function, and neuromuscular signaling. We detail host endogenous defense mechanisms, including gastric acid secretion, pancreatic enzymatic activity, bile flow, intestinal motility, and more.Topics:1. Introduction- Overview of intestinal methanogen overgrowth (IMO), hydrogen sulfide-dominant SIBO, and hydrogen-dominant SIBO  - Discussion of overlap  2. Intestinal Methanogen Overgrowth (IMO)- Characterized by an overabundance of methane-producing archaea  - Methane and intestinal transit- Bloating, abdominal discomfort, constipation  - Associated with irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C)   3. Overlap Between IMO and SIBO Subtypes- Hydrogen as a substrate for methane and/or hydrogen sulfide production- Shared potential root causes 4. Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) and Protective Mechanisms- The small intestine remains relatively free of bacteria due to protective mechanisms  - Gastric acid secretion - Pancreatic enzymes and bile - Intestinal motility- Structural abnormalities 5. Hydrogen-Dominant SIBO - Increased hydrogen and intestinal transit- Potential symptoms, diarrhea, postprandial bloating  - Different forms of SIBO can coexist  6. Hydrogen Sulfide-Dominant SIBO - H₂S and intestinal motility- H₂S and intestinal epithelial integrity- Symptoms, associations with IBS diarrhea    7. Host Defense Mechanisms Regulating Microbial Balance- Gastric acid secretion, pancreatic enzyme activity, bile flow, intestinal motility, and more 8. Gastric Acid and Its Role in Microbial Regulation- Parietal cells secrete hydrochloric acid (HCl) and intrinsic factor  - Chief cells secrete pepsinogen, conversion into pepsin in acidic conditions  - Gastric acid, digestion and antimicrobial defense   9. Hypochlorhydria - Low gastric acid impairs microbial defense- Reduced acidity disrupts digestion and downstream pancreatic enzyme and bile release   10. Pancreatic Enzymes and Their Role in Microbial Regulation- Pancreatic enzymes, digestion, antimicrobial activity - Enzymes modify chyme to limit fermentable substrates that fuel microbial proliferation   11. Intestinal Motility - Coordinated contractions propel food, microbes, and waste through the GI tract  - The enteric nervous system (ENS) and gut motility- The myenteric plexus controls peristalsis, while the submucosal plexus regulates secretion and absorption   12. Conclusion- Intestinal methanogen overgrowth (IMO), hydrogen-dominant SIBO, and hydrogen sulfide-dominant SIBO - Overlap in symptoms and microbial interactions  - Host defense mechanisms, including gastric acid, pancreatic enzymes, and motility  - Intestinal motility and ENS function in microbial homeostasis  - Hydrogen sulfide as a gasotransmitterGet Chloe's Book Today!

Send us a textIt would be a sin not to open the show discussing the Wolves and their playoff run so far and what their future match ups could look like. The first weekend of local racing kicked off, along with the WISSOTA Structural Building Late Model series, which is turning out to be a Minnesota series with the lack of drivers from surrounding areas. The guys give their thoughts on changes that need to be made to increase car counts for the series, including restricting the class for competing tracks when the series runs.  Debatable calls at Donnyland for the first night of the Late Model series are hashed over, with the question raised of whether anyone would make a call against him on his own playground. We round out this episode looking ahead to this weekend's events, or lack therof, given the grim Minnesota weather forecast.

Participating in religious activities appears to benefit cardiovascular health among Black Americans. It's something we explored in an episode on this podcast a few years back. Health systems, professional societies and researchers are increasingly recognizing that “faith-based organizations are trusted institutions within underserved communities and that people not only seek spiritual refuge and salvation in these places of worship, but they are also wonderful, trusted vessels to  distribute reliable health information,” says Dr. LaPrincess Brewer, a faculty member in the division of  Preventive Cardiology, department of Cardiovascular Medicine at Mayo Clinic. “Participating in religious activities from church services to private prayer, as well as holding deep spiritual beliefs are  linked to better cardiovascular health among Black Americans," according to researchers of a 2022 study published in the Journal of the American Heart Association. The researchers go on to suggest that recognition by health professionals and researchers of the centrality and influence of religiosity and spirituality in the lives of African American adults may serve as a means to address cardiovascular health disparities. In an episode that was first published in 2023, Movement Is Life's Dr. Mary O'Connor spoke with Dr. Brewer, whose primary research focus is reducing cardiovascular disease health disparities in racial and ethnic minority populations  and in underserved communities, and Clarence Jones, a community engagement specialist and former director of community engagement at a federally qualified health center in Minneapolis who has extensive experience in  collaborating with community and faith-based partners in promoting community wellness and access to health services.  Never miss an episode – be sure to subscribe to The Health Disparities podcast from Movement Is Life on Apple Podcasts, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.  

USD overweight exposure is now normalizing Even as equities have rallied substantially from April lows, recovery in the dollar index, or DXY, has underwhelmed and the currency sits near the lowest level it's been in three years. Alex Cohen believes that while there are cyclical reasons for the dollar weakness, there's also been a bigger structural rethink on the currency by investors from the push toward de-globalization and from questions around US exceptionalism. Alex sees German fiscal reforms as a game changer, another dollar negative. But our own survey shows very negative sentiment for the dollar, which is relevant to the short term. Mark Cabana contributes with a discussion of rates given the important interplay between the Treasuries and currencies. Mark believes that there has been a shift away from US Treasuries by global investors, although a lot of this recent shift is a function of investors reducing their overweight position rather than getting outright negative. Mark also discusses debt sustainability concerns and how budget negotiations may impact bonds going forward.

You've been told to push through. Work harder. Stretch farther. But what if the burnout you're feeling isn't about motivation, time, or funding? In this episode, I explore a deeper issue: most nonprofit organizations are built on outdated structures that can't sustain their mission's scale. I share how to identify these structural mismatches — what I call “design deficits” — and how to begin redesigning your organization for sustainable growth and real resilience.If you're feeling the weight of leadership, this one's for you.In this episode, you'll learn:Why grit isn't a sustainable strategy — and what to build insteadHow to spot the signs that your organization is structurally misalignedA practical framework for redesigning your systems so your org can carry the weight3 Key Takeaways:Resilience isn't about endurance — it's about design.Structural problems show up as personal burnout — but they're fixable.Design is doable — and it starts with one intentional shift at a time.Step-by-Step Framework for Redesign:Diagnose the Design Deficit: Identify what's no longer working — outdated systems, roles, or workflows.Redesign Intentionally: Make targeted adjustments that align with your current scale. Don't try to change everything at once.Embed New Systems: Sustain change by building rhythms, roles, and reporting lines that support your team and mission.Resources Mentioned:Next Level Nonprofit – A 6-month program where I'll help you fix what's broken and build the systems your organization needs to thrive.

In this episode of Building the Base, Hondo Geurts and Lauren Bedula are joined by Becca Wasser and Philip Sheers from the Center for New American Security (CNAS) to discuss their recent report, "From Production Lines to Front Lines." Drawing from extensive industry research and stakeholder interviews, Wasser and Sheers offer a comprehensive look at the critical challenges and opportunities facing America's defense industrial base in an era of great power competition.Five key takeaways from today's episode:Workforce remains the greatest limitation to manufacturing growth, with Wasser emphasizing "it's the workforce, stupid" as a core barrier that requires creative solutions like expanding AmeriCorps to include defense industrial base career paths.The defense industrial base has experienced decades of consolidation and lacks responsiveness to changing battlefield needs, demonstrated by challenges in ramping up production for Ukraine despite Herculean efforts from senior leaders.Structural vulnerabilities include outsourced supply chains to adversary-controlled regions and over-reliance on single-source sub-tier suppliers, creating critical bottlenecks that threaten both capacity and responsiveness in future conflicts.Small but actionable policy changes could yield significant improvements, such as allowing multi-year procurement of critical components like solid rocket motors without requiring an end item, providing immediate flexibility for production scaling.International partnerships with allies are essential for both learning from advanced manufacturing capabilities and creating resilient co-production arrangements, with countries like Japan and South Korea offering critical shipbuilding expertise that could augment America's defense industrial capacity.
