In this episode of Summer Shorts, I tackle the expensive mistake of last-minute clothes shopping and why those panic purchases never become wardrobe favorites. I explain the real reasons we find ourselves sweating in fitting rooms at 9 PM (spoiler: it's not just poor planning), why shopping from panic instead of preference leads to ill-fitting, off-brand purchases, and how these one-off items create closet confusion. I share practical strategies for planning ahead, preparing your closet for impromptu special occasions, and embracing that caring about how you look isn't frivolous - it's about living more fully in the life you want.Full show notes and resources: https://youreverydaystyle.com/single-use-outfits

In this episode, Stacey Richter talks with Dr. Stan Schwartz, co-founder of ZERO.health about the tension between mission-driven healthcare and financial incentives within the healthcare system. Highlighting examples like the Comprehensive Primary Care Initiative and other advanced primary care efforts, Schwartz shares insights on how health system economics, particularly the reliance on emergency room admissions, often undermine initiatives aimed at reducing costs and improving patient outcomes.  The discussion delves into the role of employer-sponsored health plans as potential change agents in the healthcare system, given their significant influence over commercially insured patients, who are highly attractive to providers. Dr. Schwartz underscores the importance of aligned financial incentives and collective action among employers to drive meaningful change in healthcare.

You'll also get practical tips for upgrading your space.Full show notes and resources: https://youreverydaystyle.com/closet-boutique-museum

Another veteran storyteller this week for NEPM's Valley Voices Summer Shorts podcast. Paul McNeil takes a minute to examine his life's philosophy while in the back of a cop car.

In this episode of Summer Shorts, I tackle something that sounds simple but keeps so many women stuck: giving yourself permission to like what you like. I explain why asking "what do WE think?" about your outfits is the wrong question, how focusing on getting style "right" instead of wearing what you love leads to the expensive "should" trap, and why buying clothes you think you should have makes you feel like a style imposter. I share practical exercises to help you identify what you actually love in your closet and start trusting your own taste, because when it comes to style, your opinion is the only one that matters.Full show notes and resources: https://youreverydaystyle.com/only-opinion-matters

What does it actually mean for a wife to submit to her husband? In this episode of their Summer Shorts series, Rusty and Heather take on one of the most sensitive and misunderstood topics in Christian marriage, based on a fantastic listener question. Using Ephesians 5 as a guide, they break down the concept of biblical submission, moving beyond the idea of a simple command or hierarchy. Discover why the context of these verses, including the call for husbands to love their wives as Christ loved the church and the principle of mutual submission to one another, is absolutely essential. This isn't about blind obedience or being a doormat; it's about building a strong, unified team. Rusty shares a husband's responsibility to lead in a way that is worthy of respect, while Heather provides a wife's perspective on what it feels like to be led well. They offer practical examples from their own marriage on how they've learned to navigate this dynamic with love and respect. If you've ever struggled with this passage of scripture or wondered how to apply it to your modern relationship, this conversation will bring clarity, encouragement, and a new perspective on leadership and respect in marriage.

Exploring the Complexities of Pharma Rebates with Ann Lewandowski In this Summer Short episode of Relentless Health Value, host Stacey Richter converses again with Ann Lewandowski about the intricate dynamics of pharmaceutical rebates, or as Lewandowski prefers, post-sale concessions.  The discussion delves into the nuances of these rebates, the impact they have on drug costs, and the hidden consequences for patients and plan sponsors.  They highlight articles and insights by Austin Chelko and Peter Hayes, touching on how rebates can disadvantage the pursuit of lower-cost generics and biosimilars, and can obstruct pharmacogenetic testing that ensures drug efficacy and safety.  The conversation also critiques the opacity of rebates, deemed trade secrets by pharma and PBM companies, and underscores the ethical and financial dilemmas posed by the current rebate-driven system. === LINKS ===
