Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. I'm thrilled to welcome Phil Gilbert to the show today. He is IBM's former General Manager of Design, where he helped transform one of the most traditional companies in the world into a global design thinking powerhouse. In his new book, Irresistible Change, he pulls back the curtain on how he did it. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…leaders and innovators who want to spark meaningful change in their organizations. If you're trying to turn great ideas into action and scale creativity across teams, this episode will challenge how you think about transformation. TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…change is inevitable but how you lead it determines whether your organization thrives or stalls. Phil shares how he helped one of the most traditional companies in the world reinvent itself from the inside out. In this conversation, Phil explains how to build a culture that listens instead of dictates, why mandates fail, and how "every day is a prototype" when you're leading transformation. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Transformation succeeds when it's treated like a product, not a mandate. Sustainable change starts with small, willing teams that create momentum. Design thinking isn't about becoming a designer, it's about empathy and experimentation. Culture drives outcomes more than any single tool or technology. Every day and every idea is a prototype for what's next. WHAT I LOVE MOST…Phil's reminder that meaningful change doesn't come from top-down directives. It comes from people who are empowered to experiment, collaborate, and learn.

In this episode, AgingIN CEO Susan Ryan welcomes Steve Nygren, visionary founder of Serenbe, a pioneering biophilic community outside Atlanta that blends sustainability, wellness, and human connection. Beginning in 1991 as an impromptu farm purchase, Serenbe has become a decades-long experiment in how people can live harmoniously with nature—and with each other. Steve shares his story, which includes a transition from a successful hospitality career to a life dedicated to community building and land preservation. Confronted by the threat of urban sprawl, he turned his private sanctuary into a model for regenerative development. Serenbe's design—complete with centralized mailboxes, shared gardens, trampolines, and a wellness hub housing 27 health providers—embodies the idea that thoughtful design can nurture both people and the planet. Listeners will hear how biophilic design and new urbanism come together at Serenbe to create a thriving "agrihood" that supports intergenerational living. Nygren advocates for environments that foster mobility, creativity, and vitality at every age. Steve and Susan also discuss Serenbe's intergenerational housing models and its innovative wellness hub, which offers integrated medical and holistic care—including what may be the nation's only chemical-free pharmacy. As Serenbe evolves into a think tank for arts, agriculture, and health, Steve invites listeners to reimagine their own neighborhoods and communities.

We are excited to welcome clinical psychologist and USA Today bestselling author, Dr. Chloe Carmichael, today. Chloe wrote Nervous Energy: Harness the Power of Your Anxiety, which Deepak Chopra endorsed. Her latest book, Can I Say That? Why Free Speech Matters and How to Use It Fearlessly prompted Eric to reach out to her. That book received recommendations from Dr. Phil McGraw, Dr. Drew Pinsky, Patrick Bet-David, and various other thought leaders. She joins us to explore mental health, the importance of free speech, and what goes on within corporate organizations. Chloe's Journey Dr. Chloe Carmichael built her career as a clinical psychologist, author, and speaker, blending academic insight with real-world experience. She holds a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology and has a private practice in New York City. Her background as a yoga teacher and her fascination with mindfulness shaped her approach to emotional regulation and performance, and she has worked extensively with high-achieving professionals. Over time, her work has evolved from traditional therapy into coaching, corporate consulting, and thought leadership, bridging the gap between psychology and practical success strategies. Productive Anxiety Chloe explains that anxiety, when understood and managed, can be a powerful motivational tool because the physiological arousal associated with anxiety is similar to the energy needed for preparation and action. Productive anxiety becomes maladaptive only when paired with avoidance or self-criticism. Instead of suppressing it, people can use that energy to plan, anticipate, and perform better. Recognizing that anxiety is a natural human function helps people shift from fear-based reactions to constructive responses. High Achievers and Self-Regulation When anxiety gets reframed as preparation rather than panic, it becomes an ally in achieving excellence. High performers often experience elevated anxiety because they set ambitious goals and carry heavy responsibilities. The challenge is not to eliminate anxiety but to regulate it. Practices such as self-awareness, structured planning, and mindfulness help individuals to harness their natural drive without burning out. Emotional Awareness Tuning into emotional cues can offer valuable feedback rather than distractions. Emotions signal what matters most, and ignoring them can lead to misalignment or poor decisions. Identifying the underlying messages (fear of failure, desire for growth, or need for control) allows people to channel those feelings into intentional actions rather than reactive ones. Boundaries and Self-Validation Boundaries are essential, especially for those who seek their validation externally. Many high achievers rely on the approval of others, which can increase anxiety when feedback is inconsistent or negative. Chloe encourages the development of self-validation skills and acknowledging one's own efforts and internal standards. Setting emotional and time boundaries helps maintain focus, energy, and confidence, even in competitive environments. Practical Tools for Managing Anxiety Chloe offers practical strategies for turning anxiety into productive energy. She recommends setting clear, achievable goals and using visualization to stay focused on positive outcomes. Scheduling dedicated worry time helps contain overthinking, while separating problem-solving from emotional processing prevents downward spiraling. Reframing self-talk from "what if I fail?" to "how can I prepare?" will turn fear into action and build confidence. Mindfulness and Grounding Techniques Mindfulness is essential for calming the nervous system and being grounded. Deep breathing, guided meditation, and journaling slow the mind and create distance from anxious thoughts. Chloe points out that mindfulness does not eliminate anxiety. It helps the mind engage with it objectively, cultivating emotional resilience and better decision-making. Leadership and Psychological Safety Chloe highlights the importance of creating environments where people feel psychologically safe to express their ideas and concerns. Leaders who model calm, reflective behavior encourage teams to think critically rather than reacting emotionally. Leaders will also benefit from acknowledging their own anxieties, as that normalizes stress and builds trust within teams. Balancing Ambition and Well-being Ambition and mental health are not necessarily mutually exclusive. Sustainable success requires the balancing of drive with recovery. High performers should schedule rest, physical movement, and meaningful personal time to prevent chronic stress. Integrating Psychology into Everyday Life Chloe views psychology as a proactive skill set that helps people live with intention rather than reaction. She encourages listeners to use psychological tools in everyday life, not just in therapy or moments of crisis. Emotional tracking, mindfulness, and self-compassion can strengthen relationships, sharpen leadership, and boost creativity.

Together they explore how controlled vocabularies, ontologies, and metadata shape meaning for both humans and machines, why librarianship has lessons for modern tech, and how cultural context influences what we call “knowledge.” Jessica also discusses the rise of AI librarians, the problem of “AI slop,” and the need for collaborative, human-centered knowledge ecosystems. You can learn more about her work at Ontology Pipeline and find her writing and talks on LinkedIn.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Stewart Alsop welcomes Jessica Talisman to discuss Contextually, ontologies, and how controlled vocabularies ground scalable systems.05:00 They compare philosophy's ontology with information science, linking meaning, categorization, and sense-making for humans and machines.10:00 Jessica explains why SQL and Postgres can't capture knowledge complexity and how neuro-symbolic systems add context and interoperability.15:00 The talk turns to library science's split from big data in the 1990s, metadata schemas, and the FAIR principles of findability and reuse.20:00 They discuss neutrality, bias in corporate vocabularies, and why “touching grass” matters for reconciling internal and external meanings.25:00 Conversation shifts to interpretability, cultural context, and how Western categorical thinking differs from China's contextual knowledge.30:00 Jessica introduces process knowledge, documentation habits, and the danger of outsourcing how-to understanding.35:00 They explore knowledge as habit, the tension between break-things culture and library design thinking, and early AI experiments.40:00 Libraries' strategic use of AI, metadata precision, and the emerging role of AI librarians take focus.45:00 Stewart connects data labeling, Surge AI, and the economics of good data with Jessica's call for better knowledge architectures.50:00 They unpack content lifecycle, provenance, and user context as the backbone of knowledge ecosystems.55:00 The talk closes on automation limits, human-in-the-loop design, and Jessica's vision for collaborative consulting through Contextually.Key InsightsOntology is about meaning, not just data structure. Jessica Talisman reframes ontology from a philosophical abstraction into a practical tool for knowledge management—defining how things relate and what they mean within systems. She explains that without clear categories and shared definitions, organizations can't scale or communicate effectively, either with people or with machines.Controlled vocabularies are the foundation of AI literacy. Jessica emphasizes that building a controlled vocabulary is the simplest and most powerful way to disambiguate meaning for AI. Machines, like people, need context to interpret language, and consistent terminology prevents the “hallucinations” that occur when systems lack semantic grounding.Library science predicted today's knowledge crisis. Stewart and Jessica trace how, in the 1990s, tech went down the path of “big data” while librarians quietly built systems of metadata, ontologies, and standards like schema.org. Today's AI challenges—interoperability, reliability, and information overload—mirror problems library science has been solving for decades.Knowledge is culturally shaped. Drawing from Patrick Lambe's work, Jessica notes that Western knowledge systems are category-driven, while Chinese systems emphasize context. This cultural distinction explains why global AI models often miss nuance or moral voice when trained on limited datasets.Process knowledge is disappearing. The West has outsourced its “how-to” knowledge—what Jessica calls process knowledge—to other countries. Without documentation habits, we risk losing the embodied know-how that underpins manufacturing, engineering, and even creative work.Automation cannot replace critical thinking. Jessica warns against treating AI as “room service.” Automation can support, but not substitute, human judgment. Her own experience with a contract error generated by an AI tool underscores the importance of review, reflection, and accountability in human–machine collaboration.Collaborative consulting builds knowledge resilience. Through her consultancy, Contextually, Jessica advocates for “teaching through doing”—helping teams build their own ontologies and vocabularies rather than outsourcing them. Sustainable knowledge systems, she argues, depend on shared understanding, not just good technology.

Food production makes up about 12% of our global emissions—that comes not only from the kinds of food we eat (like beef, which is one of the highest-emission foods you can eat), but how we grow and make it. The city of Copenhagen set an ambitious goal to reduce emissions from all its public kitchens by 25% by this year, 2025—but can they pull it off? Ryan and Anjali investigate Copenhagen's strategies, from stepping up school menus to tackling food waste, and answer the most important question of all: can sustainable food actually taste good?For the full text transcript, visit ted.com/podcasts/speed-and-scale-transcriptInterested in learning more about upcoming TED events?

What if the leads coming through your ads weren't bad but just not ready yetWelcome to Gym Marketing Made Simple, the show that helps boutique gym owners grow membership, increase revenue, and simplify their marketing systems without the overwhelm of complicated tactics.Episode HighlightsIn this episode, Blake Ruff, Sherman Merricks, and Tommy Allen discuss the difference between lead quality and lead readiness. They explain how a qualified lead is someone who shows genuine interest, even if they are not ready to buy right away. The conversation explores the importance of clear marketing messages, effective follow-up, and nurturing relationships over time. They also highlight how understanding client lifetime value and cost of acquisition can guide smarter marketing decisions for long-term growth.Episode OutlineA qualified lead is someone showing interest, not necessarily someone ready to purchase.Many leads are lost due to poor follow-up and a lack of nurturing.Marketing messaging should clearly reflect what the gym offers and who it serves.Cold traffic can still convert at 10 to 15 percent with consistent follow-up.Focus on the lifetime value of clients instead of short-term ROI.Combine automation with personal communication to build stronger trust.Sustainable growth comes from clarity, effort, and a long-term approach.Episode Chapters00:00 Intro00:05 Lead Quality vs. Lead Readiness in Gym Marketing03:51 Defining a Qualified Lead 08:07 The Role of Marketing Messaging11:43 The Importance of Follow-Up12:43 The Impact of Marketing Efforts on Revenue Growth17:44 The Role of Automation and Manual Intervention19:26 The Long-Term Value of Leads23:22 The Shift in Marketing StrategiesCall to ActionFollow Gym Marketing Made Simple for more conversations on how to attract better leads, strengthen client relationships, and grow consistently without losing focus on what matters most.Supporting Information
BT & Sal tackle the "predictable" concussion suffered by Giants QB Jaxson Dart, arguing that his physically punishing style and the team's over-reliance on designed runs (RPOs) is an "abuse" that is "not sustainable" in the NFL. They debate whether the Giants can or should "reel in" his play, acknowledging his dual-threat ability makes him a future star, but also his long-term health is "hanging by a thread." The discussion heats up as they slam the inexcusable breakdown in concussion protocol, questioning how Dart was allowed back on the field after a vicious hit where his head smashed the turf. They demand accountability, arguing that "somebody messed something up, seriously."
Cal Newport unpacks his framework for Slow Productivity, built on three core principles: doing fewer things, working at a natural pace, and obsessing over quality. He introduces "pseudo productivity"—the toxic heuristic that emerged in mid-20th century knowledge work when visible activity became a proxy for useful effort because traditional productivity metrics (Model Ts per hour, bushels per acre) no longer applied. Newport argues that pseudo productivity was tolerable until the digital office revolution—email, Slack, mobile computing—enabled visible activity to be demonstrated at incredibly high frequency, anywhere, anytime, creating a performance theater that drains actual productive capacity. The conversation explores how to build custom AI systems for daily planning (using GPT models trained on transcripts and book notes), the three levels of working with large language models (training from scratch, fine-tuning, and software intermediaries), and why specialized vertical AI will dominate the next wave of innovation. Newport makes the case for abandoning industrial-era proxies and reclaiming knowledge work as a craft that requires depth, patience, and quality over constant performative busyness. Hosted on Acast.

How to Build a Sustainable, Scalable Business: Insights from Young Han, Fractional COO/CFOIn this episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur, host Josh Elledge interviews Young Han, multi-entrepreneur, founder of Always Han and Thesis, and host of The Girl Dad Show. Young shares his experience as a fractional COO/CFO, helping companies between $10M and $100M in revenue make data-driven, sustainable growth decisions. The discussion dives into how founders can scale methodically, balance emotion with logic, and build systems that create long-term stability instead of short-term excitement.Building a Sustainable Business ModelYoung explains that scaling a business requires more than ambition—it requires structure, clarity, and discipline. As a fractional COO/CFO, he brings high-level strategy and operational focus to businesses that are ready to grow but not yet large enough for a full executive team. He emphasizes separating emotion from decision-making and using quantifiable data to guide growth, helping founders see where they can take calculated risks versus emotional leaps.A key part of his process is understanding the founder's actual goals—whether it's income, freedom, or eventual sale—and aligning operational and financial strategies around those priorities. Young believes in the power of methodical, “boring” business-building: creating repeatable systems, managing risk intelligently, and using debt strategically rather than emotionally. His philosophy proves that success doesn't require chaos or constant reinvention—it comes from consistency, structure, and clear decision frameworks.Young also encourages founders to embrace what he calls “Built Boring,” a mindset focused on long-term results over flashy short-term wins. By grounding strategy in data and disciplined execution, leaders can create scalable businesses that endure—ones that don't rely solely on the founder's daily grind to survive.About Young HanYoung Han is a fractional COO/CFO, serial entrepreneur, and founder of Always Han, where he helps companies scale through structured financial and operational strategy. With a portfolio of over 20 growing businesses, Young specializes in guiding founders through the complexities of sustainable growth, decision frameworks, and strategic risk management.

Send us a textThis week on the Less Stressed Life, Eliza Kingsford joins me to talk about how your nervous system drives behavior and why lasting change only happens when your body feels safe.We dive into the three main nervous system states (safe and connected, activated, and shutdown) and how they show up in your relationship with food, stress, and self-control. Eliza explains why willpower isn't the problem and how to build capacity with daily “deposits” like rest, nourishment, and connection so your body can finally support change instead of resist it.I was fired up about this one because it connects everything—physiology, behavior, and peace. You'll walk away with a clearer understanding of why you feel stuck and how to shift it.KEY TAKEAWAYS:• Your nervous system drives every thought, feeling, and action • Change feels unsafe to the brain—safety cues make new habits possible • Food behaviors mirror nervous system states (frantic in activation, numbing in shutdown) • Build capacity by balancing “deposits” like rest, nourishment, and connection with “withdrawals” like stress and overwork • Flexibility and resilience in your nervous system create real, lasting change ABOUT GUEST:Best-selling author, licensed therapist and former Corporate CEO, Eliza Kingsford is a nervous system expert and behavior change specialist. She is widely known for helping clients regain control and rewire their process so they can finally lose weight peacefully and keep it off permanently. She developed The Shift framework where clients learn a step-by-step blueprint for changing their lives.Eliza is turning the weight loss industry on its head by combining neuroscience, behavior science and psychology to create lasting results for her clients.WHERE TO FIND GUEST:Website: https://www.elizakingsford.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elizakingsford/WHERE TO FIND CHRISTA:Website: https://www.christabiegler.com/Instagram: @anti.inflammatory.nutritionistPodcast Instagram: @lessstressedlifeYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@lessstressedlifeLeave a review, submit a questions for the podcast or take one of my quizzes here: ****https://www.christabiegler.com/linksNUTRITION PHILOSOPHY OF LESS STRESSED LIFE:

If you've ever felt like marketing your therapy practice is confusing, intimidating, or just not your zone of genius, you're not alone. In this episode, I want to help you breathe a little easier about it. Marketing doesn't have to be reactive or overwhelming. It can be intentional, sustainable, and rooted in long-term success for your business and your peace of mind. Whether you're just opening your solo practice, looking to welcome more clients, or scaling into a group practice, my guest Kristie Plantinga and I talk honestly about what actually works when it comes to digital marketing for therapists. You'll hear how to keep your practice visible online, how to think about your return on investment, and which tools can help you track whether your efforts are truly bringing new clients your way. (00:14:21) “It's about, did I get a return on the investment that I put into this? It's the most important thing really, when you're working with a marketing company.” — Kristie Plantinga Kristie is the founder of Place Digital (formerly TherapieSEO) and a passionate advocate for helping therapists understand how online marketing really works. Together, we unpack what private practice owners need to know about SEO, Google Ads, and digital marketing strategy — all from a grounded, therapist-friendly perspective. Smart Marketing Strategies for Private Practice Therapists Marketing is one of the biggest investments you'll make in your practice — and it can feel risky when you don't know where to start.

Whether we love it or not, if potential clients can't find you there, your practice is essentially invisible. But there's a catch — Google isn't always a reliable partner for small businesses. Policies change overnight, and as therapists, we're rarely their priority. That's why we talk about investing in your marketing before you need it, rather than reacting when your caseload dips. Sustainable marketing is about planting seeds now for the clients you'll be serving six months from today. Kristie shares her honest take on Google Ads — calling Google “a selfish and unreliable partner” — and explains why SEO is a more sustainable, long-term investment. While ads can create short bursts of visibility, SEO helps you build an online foundation that continually attracts your ideal clients. How Much Should You Really Spend on Marketing? In this episode, Kristie and I walk through what a healthy marketing cycle looks like for different stages of private practice. We talk about setting a budget that feels aligned, tracking what's really working, and investing in strategies that will continue to pay off over time. Marketing decisions made from fear rarely lead to growth that lasts. Instead, we can learn to make calm, confident, and informed choices about where to invest our energy and resources.

We talk about why “bigger” isn't always better, how to lead from clarity instead of comparison, and why human-centered marketing still wins in an AI-driven world.If you've felt the pressure to scale, but sense there's a smarter, saner way forward, this conversation will help you realign your systems, your strategy, and your definition of success.Books MentionedIndirect Work by Carol SanfordConnect with Rachel Allen at boltfromthebluecopywriting.com or on LinkedIn.
