Podcasts about Tact

Something I posted on Instagram this week is kind of blowing up… and I think it's because it gave language to some things that we're all feeling. How do we stay human when the world feels like it's falling apart?  I'm back with more thoughts on current events! This episode kind of piggybacks off of last week's when we talked about the ICE raids in LA. This week I want to dig deeper into the specifics of what's happening—from a human level. I didn't post a political argument. I posted a human one. And that's what I want to talk about today. Behind every protest sign, policy, and headline is a human.  If we're going to keep our humanity in tact, we have to hold empathy in one hand and accountability in the other. . . . . .

Danny Combs' son, Dylan, was just two when he was diagnosed with autism. Although Dylan wasn't able to say "I love you, Dad" until he was six years old, he had started building complex LEGO sets by himself, with no instructions, three years prior. In speaking with his son's therapists, Danny wanted to highlight the fascinating skills his son possessed — but the primary focus was always on what Dylan couldn't do, not what he could. In response, Danny set out to create a program that focused on the strengths and capabilities of young people with autism — which is how TACT, Teaching the Autism Community Trades, was born. He joins Ben to talk about the incredible impact TACT has had thus far, and why we must fight injustices facing the autism community.

Join Joe McDonald as he delves into Steps 8 and 9 of Alcoholics Anonymous, emphasizing the balance between making amends and discussing spiritual principles with tact and sincerity. Joe explains that when making amends, people are often more impressed by our genuine desire to set things right than by our talk of spiritual discoveries. He reminds us that while we don't shy away from the subject of God, we must approach these conversations with goodwill, tact, and common sense, especially when addressing people who may not share the same beliefs.In Alcoholics Anonymous, the Big Book teaches us that our willingness to make amends must be sincere, and our actions must demonstrate our commitment to setting right the wrongs of the past. Joe highlights the importance of humility and tact in these moments, encouraging us to focus on our actions rather than words alone. This approach allows us to rebuild trust and strengthen relationships while also staying true to our spiritual convictions.To support and learn from journeys like Joe McDonald, please like, comment, and share.

In this episode, Billy sits down with Bob Burg, author of a wealth of successful books on sales, marketing, and influence. Of his books, he calls one the cornerstone of his life's work: Adversaries into Allies: Master the Art of Ultimate Influence. They explore the themes he outlined in this insightful book, in addition to Bob's primary framework: the Five Principles of Influence. If you've ever wanted to have more influence without resorting to manipulation, this conversation will guide you in the right direction.   Bob Burg shares how a subtle shift in focus is not only a more uplifting and fulfilling way of conducting business but the most financially profitable way, as well. For 30 years, he's helped companies, sales leaders, and their teams communicate their value more effectively, sell at higher prices with less resistance, and grow their businesses based on Endless Referrals. Bob has regularly addressed audiences ranging in size from 50 to 16,000 — sharing the platform with notables including today's top thought leaders, broadcast personalities, Olympic athletes, and political leaders, including a former United States President. Although he was best known for his book Endless Referrals for years, it's his business parable, The Go-Giver (coauthored with John David Mann), that's captured the imagination of his readers. The Go-Giver, a Wall Street Journal and BusinessWeek Bestseller, makes up over a million of Bob's 2 million total book sales. Since its release, it has consistently stayed in the Top 25 on Porchlight's (formerly 800-CEO-READ) Business Book Bestsellers List. The book has been translated into 30 languages. It was rated #10 on Inc. Magazine's list of the Most Motivational Books Ever Written and HubSpot's 20 Most Highly-Rated Sales Books of All Time. Tune in to hear Billy talk with Bob, who's been named one of the 30 Most Influential Leaders by The American Management Association, and named one of the Top 200 Most Influential Authors in the World by Richtopia. What we discussed with Bob: [01:53] – About Bob's dad Mike Burg [02:53] – What ultimate influence means to Bob [04:25] – Who is a genuine influencer [07:16] – The life lesson he learned from his cat, Liberty [10:40] – Basic principle of human nature [13:12] – How he developed his ideas and thoughts [17:43] – The relationship between self-control and character of a person [19:23] – What can we do to control our emotions? [23:30] – Why are clashes of beliefs so critical to an influencer? [26:25] – Setting the proper frame to get desired results Valuable Insights by Bob: Influence is the ability to move a person to the desired action. Great influencers don't try to push their ideas to others. Great influencers attract people. If we want people to take action to go towards the desired outcome, it has to align with what they want. Their values and their goals have to align. Only when you're the boss of yourself, then you're in the position to take a potentially negative situation and turn it into a win. Make sure that you're the master of your emotions as opposed to your emotions being your master. Notable Quotes: [02:14] – “Tact is the language of strength.” [05:15] – “People do things for their reasons, not our reasons.” [15:54] – “By all means take your emotions along for the ride but make sure you're driving the car.” [17:02] – “Self-control is the very essence of the character.” More from Bob: Bob Burg's Books: The Go-Giver Influencer The Go-Giver A Teacher's Guide to The Go-Giver The Go-Giver Leader Adversaries into Allies Go-Givers Sell More Endless Referrals The Success Formula Bob's Website: https://burg.com/ Connect with Bob on Social Media: https://www.facebook.com/burgbob https://twitter.com/bobburg https://www.youtube.com/user/burgcommunications https://www.linkedin.com/in/bobburg/ This is an encore episode and was originally published on August 12, 2021.

In this episode, Dave and Manny dive into the challenges men face in being fully honest and authentic in relationships. They explore the impact of fear and "walking on eggshells" around partners, and how this behavior can stifle genuine connection. The conversation also examines why many women may have lost the ability to fully receive, and how these dynamics affect modern relationships.Episode Highlights:Honesty and Fear in Relationships: Dave and Manny discuss why men often struggle with being completely honest in relationships, out of fear of conflict or rejection, and how this leads to "walking on eggshells."The Art of Receiving: The duo tackles the concept of women losing the art of receiving in relationships, exploring how openness and receptivity can enhance connection.Course Insights on Masculinity and Femininity: Dave shares transformative insights from a course where men expressed the need to "find their balls" and women acknowledged the importance of "opening and receiving."Traditional Gestures & Deeper Connection: They also debate the role of traditional gestures, such as holding doors open, and how stepping up as men can foster deeper connections in relationships.Key Discussion Points:Soul Line vs. Goal Line: Dave and Manny explore the difference between the "soul line" and the "goal line," emphasizing the importance of who you become while pursuing your goals.Authenticity vs. Tact: The conversation delves into the importance of aligning with your true self in relationships, and the difference between being “known” and truly “felt.”Key Takeaways:Honesty Builds Deeper Bonds: Authenticity and truth-telling in relationships, though difficult, are essential for building deeper, more meaningful connections.Receiving is as Important as Giving: The art of receiving is crucial in relationships—by opening up, individuals can allow for more profound emotional exchanges.The Journey is Just as Important as the Goal: Aligning with your "soul line"—who you become in the process of chasing your goals—is just as important as achieving those goals.Don't forget to subscribe to the podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube to stay updated on future episodes.

JAMA. 2013;309(12):1241-1250Background Case reports as early as the 1950s suggested chelation of lead might reduce angina. The popularity of chelation accelerated around the turn of the century. Small underpowered trials of chelation were inconclusive. Mainstream medicine considered chelation unproven and potentially hazardous.Cardiology Trial's Substack is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Chelation with disodium EDTA binds divalent and some trivalent cations, including calcium, magnesium, lead, cadmium, zinc, iron, aluminum, and copper, which facilitates their urinary excretion. High dose vitamins are often co-administered with chelation.The NIH-funded Trial to Assess Chelation Therapy (TACT) trial was conducted to respond to the public health problem posed by EDTA chelation therapy: namely, that large numbers of patients could be exposed to undefined risks for unproven benefits. TACT was a double-blind placebo-controlled 2x2 factorial randomized trial enrolling 1708 patients to test chelation therapy.Patients Eligibility for TACT required patients be older than 50 years, have a creatinine of < 2 mg/dl, and have survived a previous myocardial infarction. Exclusion criteria included platelet count less than 100 000/μL, abnormal liver function, BP > 160/100 mm Hg, past intolerance to the chelation or vitamin components, chelation therapy within 5 years, coronary or carotid revascularization planned or having taken place within 6 months, cigarette smoking within 3 months, active heart failure or heart failure hospitalization within 6 months, or inability to tolerate 500-mL infusions weekly. Enrollment began in 2003 and follow-up continued until 2011. There were 134 sites; 60% of which were established chelation centers.Baseline Characteristics The median age of patients was 65 years, 18% were women and the median body mass index was 30. More than 90% of patients had had either percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary bypass surgery. Approximately 31% of patients had diabetes. Use of guideline directed medications was typical of a well-treated population of post-MI patients. Procedures The active 10-component chelation solution consisted of up to 3 g of disodium EDTA; 7 g of ascorbic acid; 2 g of magnesium chloride; 100 mg of procaine; 2500 U of unfractionated heparin; 2 mEq of potassium chloride; 840 mg of sodium bicarbonate; 250 mg of pantothenic acid; 100 mg of thiamine; 100 mg of pyridoxine; and sterile water to make up 500 mL of solution. The identical-appearing placebo solution consisted of 500 mL of normal saline and 1.2% dextrose (2.5 g total).The chelation or placebo infusions were administered through a peripheral intravenous line, weekly for the first 30 infusions, followed by an additional 10 infusions 2 to 8 weeks apart. Patient also received an oral vitamin-mineral regimen vs an oral placebo. In this review, we focus on the intention-to-treat comparison of EDTA chelation vs placebo.Endpoints The primary endpoint was a composite of death, reinfarction, stroke, coronary revascularization, or hospitalization for angina.TACT trialists had planned to enroll 2300 patients over three years with a follow-up of one year. Enrollment was slow, and with permission from the data safety monitoring board (DSMB) enrollment was decreased to 1700 patients and follow-up was extended. The resultant power was 85% to detect a 25% reduction in the primary endpoint assuming a 2.5% per year event rate in the placebo arm.Over the course of the trial, the DSMB requested 11 interim analyses of the data. Because of the increased monitoring, the level of statistical significance required for the primary endpoint was enhanced to a P value of less than 0.036.Results After a median follow-up of 55 months, a primary end point occurred in 222 (26%) of the chelation group and 261 (30%) of the placebo group (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.82 [95% CI: 0.69-0.99]; p= .035). There was no effect on total mortality (10% vs 11%, HR: 0.93, 95% CI: 0.70-1.25; p= 0.64). Myocardial infarction and coronary revascularization favored chelation (6% vs 8% and 15% vs 18%, respectively), however this did not reach statistical significance for either endpoints.Subgroup analysis revealed a potentially important heterogenous treatment effect. In patients with diabetes (about a third of patients) there was an approximate 40% reduction in the primary endpoint (HR: 0.61, 95% CI: 0.45-0.83; p= 0.002).There were no significant differences in adverse effects between the two groups.The trialists did sensitivity analyses centering on patients who withdrew from the trial or were lost to follow-up. The comparison of the 2 groups remained significant even if the percentage of events among withdrawn/lost patients in the active group was 25% higher than in the placebo group.Conclusions The results of the TACT trial surprised the cardiology community. Prior beliefs were pessimistic because heavy metals was not a proven causal factor in atherosclerosis. What's more, the majority of patients were enrolled from non-traditional medical centers.Yet the effect size was both clinically important and statistically significant. The effect size in the diabetes subgroup, which was pre-specified, was even larger and more robust statistically than the general results. In fact, there was essentially no signal of benefit from chelation in non-diabetic patients. If this was confirmed, it would be a major finding both therapeutically and scientifically, as it would have discovered heavy metal exposure as an important cause of atherosclerosis.The Journal of the American Medical Association published the manuscript along with an explanatory letter from the editors, and an accompanying editorial from Dr. Steve Nissen, which challenged the internal validity of the trial.The results of TACT did not lead to widespread adoption of chelation, but it did lead primary investigator Gervasio Lamas to seek (and obtain) funding for a TACT 2 trial to study chelation in patients with diabetes. Experts often refer to subgroup findings as “hypothesis-generating” and so it was with the TACT 1 and TACT 2 trials.Cardiology Trial's Substack is a reader-supported publication.

Welcome to Heart Doc VIP! This week, Dr. Kahn tackles a series of mini-topics including the use of colchicine in treating heart disease, the crucial role of oral health in managing atrial fibrillation, and why beta-blockers may not benefit many heart attack patients. Plus, hear Dr. Kahn's thoughts on Valter Longo, Ph.D.'s insights about the "5Ps" that are excessively present in our diets. Also, check out the newly available L-Protein, a plant-based protein, at prolonfmd.com/Drkahn. Our main discussion centers on the recent findings from the TACT2 trial, where intravenous chelation therapy in 1,000 heart patients followed over four years failed to improve outcomes. This result is particularly disheartening following the promising TACT trial published in 2013, and it likely signals the end of funded research for chelation therapy.
