From Slack wars to leadership transparency, here's how to make hybrid work… well, work.In this episode, I'm chatting with Rory Brimmer, Director at Turo UK, about what it really takes to create a culture that doesn't suck in a hybrid work environment. Rory's journey is wild—from turning down a Big Four gig (mid-interview, no less) to jumping headfirst into startup life at Turo. Spoiler: it worked out.We talk about why culture matters (like, really matters), how to build trust when half the team is remote, and the sneaky ways burnout creeps in when you're leading from your kitchen table. Rory also spills on a brilliant idea called the “Great Debate,” where even interns bring game-changing ideas to the table.If you've ever felt like hybrid work is a constant battle between flexibility and connection, this one's for you. It's equal parts relatable and packed with takeaways you can steal for your team.Here's What We Get Into:[5:28] Productivity Peaks – Why your 11pm “power hour” is valid and how to build schedules that actually work for humans.[10:17] Office vs. WFH – The real talk on why fully remote isn't always the dream (but also why commutes suck).[17:27] Culture That Doesn't Feel Forced – What makes people want to stay, even when there's no free lunch in sight.[24:05] Transparency = Trust – How being radically open with your team (yes, even about the budget) changes everything.[33:52] Leap of Faith – Rory's mic-drop moment in a Big Four interview and why startups turned out to be the perfect chaos for him.[42:57] The “Great Debate” Hack – The fun team ritual that brings unlikely ideas (and healthy conflict) to the surface.[50:08] Protecting Your Energy – Why being “always on” is overrated and how to block time like a pro leader.It's the perfect mix of practical tips, good vibes, and some solid perspective shifts on how to lead in a way that feels good—not draining.free resources for leaders & biz owners FREE ENERGY BOOSTING TOOLS NEED TO SUPERCHARGE YOUR BIZ?

In this episode of Money Tales, our guest is Lisa Morales-Hellebo. This episode is all about the will and drive of a young Latina to rebel against cultural norms and prove to herself and the world that, by playing by her own rules, she can accomplish whatever she puts her mind to. Lisa grew up as member of the only brown family in an affluent neighborhood, facing relentless racism that put a chip on her shoulder and sparked an unyielding determination. Now, Lisa is using that drive to take on refashioning the $3 trillion end-to-end industrial value chain. After turning down millions from Silicon Valley investors who didn't understand her vision, she's leading a revolution to invest in brown women and overlooked innovators. Lisa has 28 years in tech, design and systems thinking, entrepreneurship, and community building, and has recently added VC to her list of titles as Founder & Co-Managing GP at REFASHIOND Ventures: the Industrial Transformation Fund — a NY-based venture fund that invests as the first institutional check in early-stage startups refashioning industrial value chains across Data & AI, Advanced Materials, Advanced Manufacturing, and Next Generation Logistics; defensible through economic moats. Lisa has always been obsessed with how things are made and pioneered mass-customization, personalization, and on-demand micromanufacturing for P&G in Silicon Valley in 1999 at a company called Reflect.com. Lisa is catalyzing the paradigm shift to localized demand chains as CEO and Founder of REFASHIOND OS (rOS), which is deploying a unified Data Layer & Control Tower across manufacturing value chains. She is also a founder of The Worldwide Supply Chain Federation, an organization that is changing how supply chain professionals learn about, collaborate, and adopt early-stage supply chain innovation around the world.

In this episode… In the intricate world of ad tech, the exchange of data has become as common as trading stocks on Wall Street. Marketers now have advanced tools to pinpoint their target audience, but this data trove also brings significant privacy concerns. Brands are often challenged with the privacy implications of tracking, data selling, and sharing. And that's understandable - it's a complex web of information, and it's not always clear where consumer data ends up. With the imminent demise of third-party cookies, companies are exploring new methods to sustain behavioral targeting like data clean rooms, conversion APIs, and alternative identifiers, raising questions about their privacy implications. That's why Check My Ads is on a mission to keep the ad tech ecosystem in check by calling out false narratives and defunding bad actors that spread misinformation to drive systemic change. In today's episode of She Said Privacy/He Said Security, Jodi and Justin Daniels welcome Arielle Garcia, the Director of Intelligence at Check My Ads, to discuss some of the biggest privacy challenges facing the ad tech ecosystem today. Arielle highlights the fundamental conflict between ad tech business models and business privacy obligations, emphasizing the need for a shift toward consumer-centric approaches. She also shares the implications of third-party cookie deprecation, critiques current and emerging advertising business models, and discusses the critical need for implementing secure and effective media and data practices to benefit companies and their customers.

It's the ratio of how your brain defaults to either positive or negative thoughts.”“What you can control is what you do with it once you hear it.”“Some people go through life never actually hearing their self-doubt, simply feeling it.”“Our body speaks our truth louder than our words all the time.”“Name it to tame it.”Our self-doubt has names. Nine primary saboteur voices: Controller, Hyper achiever, Restless, Stickler, Pleaser, Hyper vigilant, Avoider, Victim, and Hyper rationale. “Self-Doubt does not discriminate.

We ponder the avalanche of discounts that are about to be unleashed upon us, particularly by Kohl's which appears to be in the worst inventory position. Then we dip into earnings reports where we learn that less bad is apparently the new good, as Best Buy and Nordstrom dropped a lump of coal into our stockings, but saw their share prices rise.

Life is one big rehearsal.”“I didn't have to be the most experienced person in the room, I didn't have to be the smartest, or the most male as long as I did one thing – carry myself with confidence. Lead with confidence. That became my secret sauce.”Secret to confidence: “Your confidence is not about them; it's about you. It's about how you show up for you.”What rattles your confidence: (1) The unfamiliar and (2) High stakes. “Take steps to familiarize the unfamiliar.“Ditching doubts has a lot to do with mindset. Words matter. The words that we're telling ourselves are having an impact on our actions that follow.”“The cells in our body are eavesdropping on our words.”Your confidence currency: “Your confidence account works just like your bank account. It has your name on it. You control the password. You make the decisions about how to grow it, how to invest it, and how to spend it…. The only way someone can make a withdrawal from your account is if you give them permission.”Being a Broken Rung Fixer: (1) Getting credit for your work (2) Creating visibility and (3) Building the MAC team (Mentors, Allies, and Champions)Soundbite: “Short, succinct statement that contains ~ 20 word or less and it's said in 10 seconds or less.”

I'm Stacey Simms and these are the top diabetes stories and headlines of the past seven days. we go live on social media first and then All sources linked up at diabetes dash connections dot com when this airs as a podcast. XX The news is brought to you by The World's Worst Diabetes Mom: Real Life Stories of Parenting a Child With Type 1 Diabetes. Winner of best new non-fiction at the American Book Fest and named a Book Authority best parenting book. Available in paperback, eBook or audio book at amazon. XX Interesting look at whether a treatment for leukemia might work against type 1. Very early on here.. but AVM Biotechnology has received a grant to find out. The drug doesn't have a name yet.. it's referred to as AVM-0703 and has been shown to delay T1D in the lab. A preclinical dose-finding and mechanism of action (MOA) study in three scenarios including pre-diabetic, new-onset, and established diabetes is the first aim of the program. Those results will be used to determine the targeted dose to be used in a pivotal efficacy study for reversal of new-onset and established diabetes. It is anticipated that for patients not showing remission, AVM0703 may reinforce other immunotherapies allowing a wider range of patients to achieve insulin independence. https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20220405005529/en/AVM-Biotechnology-Awarded-1.6-Million-Phase-II-SBIR-Grant-to-Study-AVM0703%E2%80%99s-Potential-to-Reverse-Type-1-Diabetes XX Black patients with type 1 faced a significantly higher frequency of diabetic ketoacidosis during the pandemic, and particularly during surges, researchers reported. This was a big study at several different health centers and hospitals. Researchers found there was not significant difference in the number of patients in DKA from 2019 versus 2020.. but there was a higher proportion of Black patients. The trend continued through the pandemic and again, it was significant, 48-percent versus 18 percent. Pandemic surges emphasized the disparity even more. These researchers say their work shows racial inequities in diabetes care were present before the pandemic, starkly visible during the pandemic, and will continue to persist after the pandemic -- unless we systemically root out and target racial inequities in diabetes care," https://www.medpagetoday.com/endocrinology/type1diabetes/98044 XX A new look the transition from pediatric to adult care for people with type 1 shows.. it needs improvement. This research – based on interviews with older adolescents showed many felt unprepared and dissatisfied with the transition process. Three big takeaways – the teens are aware of the changing relationship with their parents and health care teams and often want more independence than the parents are willing to give… the teens want acknowledgement that being diagnosed at different ages means they may be more or less comfortable with self-management and the third is that they think their pediatric team isn't preparing them to work with adult providers. Personally, this means a lot to me – as my son is 17 – and I'll be asking his peds endo to work with him more on this stuff in the next couple of years. https://www.healio.com/news/endocrinology/20220401/novel-programs-needed-to-improve-transition-from-pediatric-to-adult-diabetes-care XX DiabetesWise announces the launch of it's new Pro website. It's an unbranded non-biased resource created at Stanford University to help make providers more informed about diabetes devices and streamline the prescription process. We've talked about Diabetes Wise before and I'll link it up here. It's easy to feel overwhelmed by the evolving choices and providers are in the same situation. The DiabetesWise Pro website has an extensive Device Library where providers can learn about all of the FDA-approved diabetes devices on the market based on the patient's considerations. The user can compare the devices from the different manufacturers using the Compare Device tool, which displays a side-by-side analysis of the components and details of each technology, including the steps for ordering and prescribing the device. Providers can then build a comparison report of the two devices to share with their patients, colleagues, and community. Along with the Device Library, providers can receive help with ordering and prescribing the devices for their patients using the Prescription Tools feature on the website. The Prescription Tool directs the user to a guide providing accurate up-to-date information on the necessary steps for filing a prescription and ordering the device for the patient. DiabetesWise Pro has plans to update the tool to include details on the approval of devices for patients based on insurance type. DiabetesWise Pro website features for use in clinic include: 1. Device Library- Information on specific device fundamentals 2. Comparison Tool- Comprehensive tool that allows you to compare device recommendations and share with patients 3. Prescription Tool- A step-to-step guide for ordering the device and filling a prescription based on insurance type 4. Resources for providers by providers- best tips, tricks, and workarounds for diabetes technology from providers With this new resource, there have also been enhancements to the patient-facing website at DiabetesWise. Newly approved devices have been added and there are now Spanish-language versions of the Check-Up and Device Finder. https://diabeteswise.org/#/ https://providers.diabeteswise.org/#/ XX FDA approval in February, now the Eversense six-month CGM is rolling out to patients. The price is set at 99-dollars out of pocket for the first transmitter and sensor and then $100 per month for the six months of wear. The device includes a small fluorescence-based sensor, about the size of a grain of rice, which is fully embedded in the upper arm. A transmitter stuck to the skin over the sensor reads the data, transmits the information to a smartphone and provides vibration alerts for changes in blood sugar. https://www.fiercebiotech.com/medtech/ascensia-diabetes-care-launches-eversenses-6-month-cgm-system-us XX Dexcom ONE is getting a big roll out in the UK. We've talked about this a couple of times in the past.. it's the same Dexcom technology but a bit pared down and at lower cost. This news comes as the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) announced new guidance for adults and children managing Type 1 diabetes. NICE now recommends that adults with Type 1 diabetes be offered a choice of glucose sensors. G6 is already offered there and the G7 will be as well, but this is about national health service coverage, and the Dexcom One is the only system under consideration there. https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20220401005092/en/Dexcom-Announces-Dexcom-ONE-the-Newest-Real-Time-Continuous-Glucose-Monitoring-System-to-Its-Range-of-Scan-Free-and-Fingerprick%E2%80%A0-Free-Devices XX Some front office news around the community.. Stem cell pioneer Doug Melton is leaving Harvard to join Vertex Pharmaceuticals. Not entirely unexpected – Melton's company Semma was purchased by Vertex and they are moving ahead toward stem cell transplantation as a functional cure for type 1. This was the company that got all those headlines last fall about the cure – you remember “It worked in this one guy!” Melton is joining the company as a distinguished Vertex Fellow. Semma, by the way, was named after his two adult children who live with type 1 – Sam & Emma. https://www.statnews.com/2022/04/05/douglas-melton-noted-stem-cell-researcher-leaves-harvard-for-vertex-to-create-diabetes-treatments/ XX Beyond Type 1 names Deborah Dugan as CEO. She replaces Thom Scher who died suddenly and unexpectedly in December. Dugan was previously the CEO of RED, the not-for-profit organization founded by U-2's Bono (bah no) and Bobby Shriver to raise awareness in the fight against AIDS. Dugan, has been recognized as one of the "100 Most Powerful Women" by Forbes, "Top Woman to Help Change the World" by Elle and as a "Nelson Mandela Changemaker" https://beyondtype1.org/beyond-type-1-diabetes-deborah-dugan-ceo/ XX Congratulations to Leo and Alana Folsom who welcome a baby boy. The couple was on a recent season of the Amazing Race and after we all saw Leo's Dexcom in one of the first episodes, he came on this show to share his story. Leo lives with congenital hyperinsulinism, where the body makes too much insulin, and had almost his entire pancreas removed. He told me at the time he was amazed by the diabetes community's support. So I just wanted to say congrats to him and to Alana and help welcome baby Kitt Edwin Folsom.
