Supermarket tuna raises a disturbing question: What's behind your canned tuna? In this episode, you uncover the hidden human cost of the global tuna industry, including the devastating story of fisherman Deby Putra Bunanda, whose health collapsed after months at sea supplying tuna for major supermarket brands. His experience reveals a deeper and darker truth about forced labor, long deployments without oversight, and the human suffering behind one of the world's most common foods. The surprising emotional insight: Bunanda returned home barely able to walk or speak after seven months at sea. Sustainable fishing sounds simple on a label, but the reality is far more complicated. We look at the environmental toll of industrial tuna fleets, from destructive fishing methods like FADs to the bycatch of sharks, turtles, and juvenile tuna. We examine why certification labels, including MSC, often fail to guarantee true sustainability or ethical labor practices. You will also hear how ISSF pushes the industry forward while still facing major limits in transparency and enforcement. Ethical seafood is possible, but only if consumers know what to look for. This episode breaks down which labels matter, why "pole-and-line" and "troll-caught" tuna are safer choices, and how certain brands perform better on transparency than others. If you've ever wondered whether your tuna is truly sustainable or if the worker who caught it was treated fairly, this episode gives you the clarity you need.

"Sustainability, where you can, is always an important resource to go to first… This earth gives us such precious resources, and it's nice to maintain and take care of the earth as well for your children and children to come." —Ashley Berman  The most meaningful jewelry isn't bought, it's reborn. It carries stories, fingerprints, and memories that outshine anything new. In a world chasing trends, there's power in slowing down, honoring what already exists, and turning what once sat in a drawer into something extraordinary. For jewelry designer Ashley Berman, the pandemic reshaped everything. When store shelves closed, she opened a new chapter, helping clients transform heirlooms into modern pieces that carry legacy and beauty in equal measure. Today, through Ashley Morgan Designs, she champions beauty built on story, craftsmanship, and sustainability. In this episode, Justine and Ashley unpack how to build a sustainable jewelry collection, what to ask before buying or recycling gold and stones, and the truth behind lab-grown versus mined diamonds, plus a look into her Holiday Market that celebrates local makers and meaningful design.   Meet Ashley: Ashley Morgan Designs is a Bay Area-based jewelry design company. Ashley Berman, the creative brilliance behind the growing studio, uses her ability to evoke emotion from jewelry to craft pieces of art that are both reflective of individual style as well as the embodiment of personal histories.

The 2025 Budget was set up to be the most important since at least the Truss-Kwarteng mega-failure of 2022. It's Labour's first attempt to set a full, multi-year spanning agenda since 2007. In the build-up to it every possible financial lever has been floated as on the table: income tax rises, changes to national insurance and VAT, windfall taxes on banks or the gambling industry, to name a few.What the Chancellor eventually decides to do will have serious ramifications for years to come. So it's only right that our reactive episode of It's Bloody Complicated treats this moment with the seriousness it deserves.This episode was hosted by Clive Lewis, Labour Member of Parliament for Norwich South, as he gave his own insight into what the Budget means and how the PLP have reacted to it.Joining Clive was Erin Mansell, Head of External Affairs at the Women's Budget Group, and Michael Jacobs, Professor of Political Economy at the University of Sheffield.Erin Mansell leads WBG's influencing work getting their analysis and policy recommendations for a gender equal economy out to as large and diverse audiences as possible.

2025 list of fastest-growing companies. Jeff shares how values-driven leadership shapes every aspect of his organization, from strategic decisions to daily client interactions. He breaks down the core values that guide his team's growth, reliability, communication, and respect, and explains how embedding them into company culture fuels consistent, high-quality performance. Jeff also dives into the evolving role of AI in streamlining operations and elevating service, while underscoring the importance of empowering employees through critical thinking and autonomy. The conversation wraps with a powerful reminder: clearly defined values aren't just ideals, they're essential tools for sustainable growth and effective leadership. 3:42 Meet Jeff Soha 4:02 Soha Capital and Its Mission 4:29 The Impact of AI on Services 6:08 Success Through Values 6:50 Evolving Company Values 9:44 The Importance of Core Values 12:23 Defining Core Values 14:06 Practical Applications of Values 17:05 Commitment to Reliability 18:54 Weekly Review Process 23:46 Decision-Making with Values 26:23 Empowering Decision-Making in Leadership 27:30 Conclusion and Takeaways Building a Business on Values In this episode, Gene sits down with Jeff Socha, founder of Socha Capital, to talk about what values-driven leadership really looks like in practice. Jeff explains how Socha Capital helps successful entrepreneurs through family office services, from tax reduction and legal planning to investment and risk management. Gene highlights the importance of having values that actually live inside an organization, not just words written on a wall, and Jeff shares how this philosophy drives everything they do. How AI Supercharges Their Client Experience The conversation shifts into technology, where Jeff breaks down how artificial intelligence has changed the game at Socha Capital. Instead of replacing people, AI helps the team work smarter, speeding up research, boosting problem-solving, and allowing them to craft customized solutions faster than ever. For a company dealing with complex financial and legal strategy, that efficiency makes a real difference. Values That Drive Growth (Literally) Jeff has a remarkable track record: three different companies have landed on fastest-growing company lists, including the Inc. 5000. Gene digs into how values played a part in that success. Jeff shares Socha Capital's four core values: growth, reliability, communication, and respect, and explains how they show up in real decisions like hiring, firing, and internal operations. These aren't slogans; they are the compass for everything the team does, reinforced through weekly reviews, reporting systems, and clear expectations around accountability. Teaching Leaders to Think for Themselves One of the most compelling parts of the conversation is Jeff's philosophy on developing leadership within his team. Instead of giving answers right away, he encourages employees to think through decisions using the company's values as their guide, especially when he's not in the room. This approach builds autonomy, confidence, and critical thinking. Jeff also talks about how he shaped these values over years of personal reflection and mentoring, grounded in the belief that "everything will grow at the rate that you do." The episode closes with Gene and Jeff agreeing on one big idea: values aren't abstract concepts, they're practical tools. When leaders live by them, they create alignment, resilience, and long-term growth for everyone involved. Key Takeaways Values must be lived, not laminated. Jeff emphasizes that core values only matter when they're actively practiced and used in decision-making not just written down. AI boosts productivity without replacing people. Socha Capital uses AI to accelerate research and problem-solving, allowing the team to spend more time on high-value client work. Growth starts with the leader. Jeff's philosophy "everything will grow at the rate that you do" highlights the importance of personal development for organizational success. Accountability drives reliability. Weekly reviews, clear reporting systems, and action-tracking help maintain consistent performance across the company. Empowered teams make better decisions. Jeff encourages employees to use the company's values as a framework for independent decision-making, building confidence and critical thinking. Values guide people decisions. Hiring, firing, and everyday leadership all tie back to Socha Capital's four core values: growth, reliability, communication, and respect. Sustainable success is values-driven. Gene and Jeff agree that long-term growth depends on leaders who embody and operationalize their values daily. Resources & Next Steps Ready to take your leadership energy to the next level?

What does it take to make more environmentally sustainable software? Carl and Richard talk to Tom Herkhove about Microsoft's efforts to make carbon footprint and emissions visible for applications. Tom talks about the Azure API Management interface as a great starting point, and the ability to shift workloads to low-emission data centers as needed. The conversation also digs into wasted cycles, like automatically fired CI/CD pipelines whose results are never reviewed. It all begins with measuring - what action you take from there is up to you!

In this episode, I talk about something that we don't address enough: the hard work of Permaculture is boring. It's not heroic. It doesn't make for a great YouTube short or video to add to your story. The pictures that come out of it are rarely art, or something you'd want to post to Instagram. I hope this episode reminds you why we show up day after day, week after week, for the small, routine tasks of permaculture. If you found this helpful, share it with a friend who might be struggling on their journey right now, so it can be a bit of encouragement to keep going, even when it's tedious.  Until the next time, spend each day showing up and putting in the work, as you care for Earth, yourself, and each other.

Artificial intelligence may appear weightless, but its backbone is built on vast, energy-hungry data centers. In this episode, host Kokou Agbo-Bloua explores how these facilities—from corporate server farms to hyperscale sites—have become the brain of the AI boom.

Anita, 67 years old, has lost about 150 pounds. She was overweight as a toddler and spent the vast majority of her life being morbidly obese. Anita began her dieting 'career' at age 12 when her Mom brought her to a Weight Watcher's meeting. After that, it was decades of yo yo dieting and trying every new thing that came out. In her early 50's, weighing about 320 lbs, Anita started low carb (Atkins type diet), then found keto and then found carnivore. In this, Anita has a purpose in life and that is to make sure that both men and women who are her age and have given up on life can hear that it is never too late. She achieves this by sharing cooking recipes on youtube (KetogenicWoman), as well as info that she hopes is educational and informative on a weekly livestream. Anita is currently writing a book 'Carnivore for Ageless Living' that will be published hopefully in late 2026. Anita is on zero medications, has no health issues other than arthritis in her left knee. She even cancelled her scheduled knee surgery and has been managing her pain by following a clean diet of meat, eggs and sardines!

For ten years, New York-based artist and illustrator Abbie Zabar had unique, early-morning access to the Great Hall at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art.

In this heartfelt episode of Healthy Waves, gerontologist and caregiver expert Janice Goldmintz joins host Avik to unpack the unspoken emotional weight of caring for aging parents—especially when dementia or serious illness flips the parent-child dynamic. Drawing from her master's in gerontology and her own decade-long journey caring for both parents with Alzheimer's, Janice offers raw, practical wisdom: how to hold grief and love at the same time, why asking for help isn't weakness, how to make big care decisions without tearing the family apart, and simple self-care habits that actually work when you're running on empty. This conversation is for every adult child who feels guilty, overwhelmed, or terrified they're “parenting their parents” wrong. Key Takeaways The hardest shift isn't the logistics—it's emotionally moving from “child” to “care advocate” while still feeling like a kid inside. Acknowledge the emotions (guilt, resentment, grief) instead of suppressing them—pretending you're “fine” only makes burnout worse. No one does this perfectly—even trained gerontologists make mistakes. Progress, not perfection, is the goal. Top 3 family mistakes: (1) Assuming everyone will contribute equally, (2) Waiting until crisis to plan, (3) Refusing to adapt when the original plan stops working. Mindset shift that changes everything: Stop expecting fairness; assign tasks by strength, not equality—someone's great at finances, someone else at emotional support. Self-care isn't selfish—it's self-centered (centering yourself so you can keep showing up). Put your oxygen mask on first. Sustainable caregiver habits: 10-minute walks (even in a mall), scheduled dog walks, quick breathing breaks, reading for knowledge/power, respite stays at retirement homes. With dementia: “Go where they are.” If Dad thinks he's on the farm, ask about the animals—enter their reality to create moments of joy and deeper connection. Final truth: This journey is messy, exhausting, heartbreaking… and one of the most rewarding acts of love you'll ever give.

In this episode, I'm sitting down with my good friend, business strategist, consultant and author, Jessica Lackey, for a candid conversation about what it really takes to build a sustainable business—especially when you have an ADHD-ish brain. Jessica shares her journey from Harvard, McKinsey, and Nike to the wild world of entrepreneurship, revealing how even with such impressive credentials, she found herself trapped in the endless loop of online business tactics, quick fixes, and shiny promises.Drawing on her upcoming book, Leaving the Casino: Stop Betting on Tactics, and Start Building a Business That Works, Jessica explains why so many of us end up gambling away our sanity (and savings) on the latest tactics, instead of building actual strategies that work for our lives and brains. Get ready for frameworks, real talk about defining your own version of success, and practical advice on bringing more intentionality and enoughness into your business (and life). It's time to leave the casino behind—and reclaim your agency.Top Takeaways from this Episode:Start with Strategy, Not Tactics: The endless cycle of purchasing the latest digital course or marketing hack often leads to overwhelm, wasted resources, and lost confidence. Sustainable businesses are built on strategy and thoughtful decision-making, not reactive, one-size-fits-all tactics.Ask Yourself the Big Questions: Before chasing the next big thing, get clarity on key fundamentals:What type of business do you really want to run?What stage are you in?What is the right pace and amount for your life and brain?What level of responsibility and commitment matches your reality?What does “enough” look like for you? These questions ground your business in reality instead of fantasy.Don't Compare Your Solo Journey to the Big Players: The polished marketers often have large teams and structures flattening out the chaos. If you're a team of one (especially with an ADHD-ish brain), your output and path will—and should—look different.There's power in slowing down, cutting through the noise, and building a business that fits you—not a casino of empty promises.About Jessica Lackey Jessica Lackey is the founder of Deeper Foundations, a consulting and training firm that helps expertise-based business owners grow and scale sustainable companies rooted in stronger business foundations. She brings a unique blend of corporate expertise and soulful business building, drawing on an MBA from Harvard Business School, a coaching certification from iPEC, and experience at McKinsey & Company and Nike, Inc.

Join us as we explore how courageous leadership helps us integrate technology with purpose instead of pressure. We look at leaders who chose clarity over complexity and used vision to guide innovation. Their success came from reconnecting to why the work matters, asking better questions, and shaping tools around real human needs. When we lead this way, we create space for confidence, trust, and momentum. We also show how cultures shift when leaders speak openly, encourage small tests, and celebrate learning. Bold, people-centered goals create energy and push teams to think in new ways. We share a simple framework built on clarity, communication, connection, and commitment that keeps us steady when change feels messy. When we act with courage, our teams feel it, and they follow with more creativity and readiness. Key Takeaways: Lead with Purpose - Learn how to anchor any new technology or change in a clear why that brings people with you. Build Confidence Through Clarity - Expect tools to land better when you speak openly about what you know, what you don't, and what matters most. Create a Culture That Learns - Why small experiments, curiosity, and honest reflection spark stronger engagement than perfect plans. Set Human-Centered Goals - How bold goals tied to human outcomes help people think differently and fuel innovation. Use the Four C's to Stay Grounded – A simple framework you can use the next time change feels heavy.

"We eat from a thousand different hungers—and most of them aren't about food." — Jane McGuinness In this episode of Uncorking a Story, I sit down with Jane McGuinness—registered clinical counselor, mother of three, and author of the memoir Always Hungry: How I Lost the Weight and Found Myself. Jane opens up about her journey from emotional eating and divorce to rediscovering herself through writing, hiking, and radical acceptance. We talk about the psychology behind food cravings, the privilege of thinness, and why healing is about more than just losing weight. If you've ever wondered what it takes to transform your life from the inside out, this conversation is for you. Key Takeaways: Emotional eating is rarely about hunger—it's often tied to stress, anxiety, and unresolved trauma. Healing requires owning your story; writing memoir can be a powerful tool for self-discovery. Thin privilege is real—Jane shares candid insights on how society treats people differently based on body size. Sustainable weight loss is about consistency, not quick fixes—think small habits over time. Life transitions can spark growth—Jane's divorce and career change led her to embrace freedom and creativity. Travel and movement are transformative—Jane's Camino de Santiago pilgrimage changed her perspective on life. Moderation beats restriction—finding balance with food and exercise is key to long-term health.

Rising salt levels in soil and water are destroying farmland worldwide, with 16.6 million square kilometers now salt-affected — an area roughly the size of South America Saline agriculture offers a powerful solution by using salt-tolerant crops, smart irrigation, and natural soil restoration methods to turn degraded land back into productive farmland Research shows countries like China, India, Pakistan, Argentina, and the U.S. have millions of acres suitable for saline farming, which could help feed hundreds of millions of people without relying on scarce freshwater Techniques such as gypsum treatment, drip irrigation, and phytoremediation — using plants themselves to absorb and redistribute salt — is helping restore soil fertility and protect food supplies These same principles apply beyond farms; by managing salt, adding organic matter, and choosing resilient plants, even home gardeners can help revive soil health and contribute to global food resilience
