Dr. Claire de Mézerville López welcomes Amy Hart, principal of Stanley Elementary in Wichita, Kansas, to the Restorative Works! Podcast.  Drawing from more than 14 years in education, Amy shares how relationship-centered leadership improves school culture, even amid systemic change, limited resources, and community mistrust. Through a real-world story involving two fifth-grade students on the brink of a physical fight, Amy illustrates why conversations rooted in restorative practices create lasting change. Instead of relying on suspension as a solution, her school engaged families, centered accountability, and facilitated conversations that allowed the harm to be named and repaired. This story brings restorative justice in education to life and shows how trauma-informed leadership builds safety, trust, and resilience.  The episode also explores what it means to lead during disruption. As a "welcoming school" absorbing hundreds of new students without additional staff, Stanley Elementary faced fractured trust and growing pains. Amy explains how her team responded by returning to their mission, vision, and shared values—embedding restorative and trauma-informed approaches into every system, expectation, and relationship. From listening and learning circles to inclusive community events, the school rebuilt its foundation and strengthened its capacity to serve all students.  Amy is the principal of Stanley Elementary in Wichita, Kansas, where she has proudly served for the past four years. With 14 years of experience in education, Amy began her career as a middle school teacher, spending seven years teaching English language arts, math, and broadcast journalism. Her passion for leadership led her to become an assistant principal for three years before stepping into her current role. Amy is trained in trauma-informed practices and restorative practices approaches, ensuring that every student feels supported and valued. Guided by transformational leadership principles, she believes that all students and staff can achieve success when provided with the right resources and feel empowered to grow. Amy is committed to fostering a positive, inclusive school culture where learning thrives and relationships matter.  Tune in to learn how restorative practices frameworks help leaders shift power from control to collaboration, creating environments where students, staff, and families feel seen, valued, and accountable to one another.

As Shoptalk Spring 2026 approaches, one theme is shaping the conversation across the retail industry: AI is moving from experimentation to real-world application. In this episode of the RETHINK Retail Podcast, Fritz Finlay speaks with Joe Laszlo, Head of Content & Insights at Shoptalk, about the ideas and trends expected to define this year's event. Their discussion explores several themes emerging across AI in retail today: - Human-Centric AI As automation expands across retail operations, successful brands are focusing on how technology can enhance, not replace, the human elements of service, connection, and experience. - AI as a Multiplier Rather than asking what roles AI replaces, retailers are increasingly exploring how AI can expand what teams are capable of accomplishing. - From AI Hype to Retail Impact The most valuable AI applications are solving long-standing retail challenges, from merchandising decisions and demand planning to customer engagement and discovery. Joe also shares how these themes are reflected in the Shoptalk Spring 2026 agenda, where leaders from companies such as New Balance, Victoria's Secret, and Reddit will discuss how AI is shaping the next phase of retail innovation.

I want to always find a way around the issue.Imagine a drive-thru where you can order your favorite coffee with a single app click, arrive at the pickup spot, and leave in seconds—no line, no waiting, no tipping. This seamless experience is the vision of Jane Lo and Rob Whitten, co-founders of p!ng, a fully automated drive-thru system designed to solve the inefficiencies of traditional drive-thrus.The idea was born out of frustration. Rob, a robotics expert and father of three, described how bad drive-thru experiences with his daughters inspired the project. “My three daughters made me go through a bunch of drive-throughs. It was a terrible experience, and Jane told me to stop complaining one day and just fix it,” he shared. Jane, a marketing and customer experience expert, immediately saw the potential. Together, they combined their skills to create what Rob calls “the nerd's revenge for bad drive-throughs.”The technology behind p!ng is as impressive as its simplicity. Customers use an app to place their orders, which are prepared only when they approach the pickup location. Sensors and geofencing track vehicles, ensuring orders are ready precisely when needed. Rob explained, “We wanted you to leave p!ng feeling victorious and like you're living in the future. It's nice and simple on the surface, but underneath, there's a bunch of really cool tech happening.”Jane and Rob's innovative system is already making waves among consumers, who appreciate the speed and ease of the experience. “Our customers were like, ‘This is amazing. Why doesn't this already exist?'” Jane said. Yet, traditional venture capitalists often didn't understand the scope of the problem. “If you're someone wealthier, you probably have an assistant or a fancy espresso machine. You're not likely to be in that drive-thru lane,” she explained.To fund their vision of revolutionizing drive-thru convenience, the pair turned to regulated investment crowdfunding on Wefunder, where everyday people can invest in their mission. “It's awesome because good customers make great investors and vice versa,” Rob noted.By combining cutting-edge robotics with a deep understanding of customer needs, Jane and Rob aren't just solving a problem—they're creating an entirely new experience. p!ng shows how innovation and impact can work hand in hand to redefine convenience.tl;dr:Jane Lo and Rob Whitten founded p!ng to create a frictionless, fully automated drive-thru experience.They combined expertise in robotics and customer experience to revolutionize how people get coffee.Traditional VCs didn't see the problem, so they turned to crowdfunding to fund their vision.Jane's adaptability and Rob's determination to overcome constraints drive their ability to innovate.p!ng's technology simplifies the customer experience while showcasing the potential of robotics.How to Develop Adaptability and Problem Solving As a SuperpowerJane and Rob's superpowers center on adaptability and a refusal to accept limits. Jane describes herself as an “adapter,” someone who embraces change and thrives in uncertain situations. “If something goes poorly, I'm like, okay, how can we fix this?” she explained. Rob, on the other hand, described his ability to challenge constraints: “I don't really accept constraints... I want to always find a way around the issue.” Together, these superpowers enable them to tackle challenges head-on and innovate in ways others might overlook.When Jane was recovering from hip replacement surgery, she adapted by learning to solder at home so she could contribute to p!ng's pilot project. “We made like a hundred of them or something,” she said, referring to the wiring components she assembled. Meanwhile, Rob shared his story of running a two-football-field-long hose to solve a water shortage during a robotics test at Amazon, demonstrating his determination to overcome obstacles quickly and creatively.Tips for Developing the Superpower:Push your boundaries by tackling things you fear or find uncomfortable.Embrace change as an opportunity for growth rather than something to avoid.Interrogate constraints instead of accepting them—ask “how can I solve this?” rather than “can I?”Use AI tools creatively to brainstorm and find out-of-the-box solutions.Focus on the next step instead of dwelling on failures or setbacks.By following Jane and Rob's example and advice, you can make adaptability and problem solving a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

Designed by veterans of Amazon Robotics, iRobot, and SharkNinja, p!ng delivers the speed, consistency, and convenience today's on-the-go consumers crave, whether that's during the chaotic morning rush or afternoon beverage side quest.Website: pingthru.comCompany Facebook Page: facebook.com/pingthrucoffeeCompany Instagram Handle: @pingthrucoffee Other URL: wefunder.com/pingBiographical Information: I grew up in the Bay Area and after graduating from UC Berkeley, began my career in healthcare consulting and biotech. These experiences made one thing clear: I wanted to work as close to the end consumer as possible. I returned to school to earn my MBA from The University of Chicago Booth School of Business, then moved into product marketing, brand marketing, and media production for consumer brands including Samsonite and SharkNinja. I met Rob, my co-founder, at SharkNinja, working on the same kitchen appliances development team. I found my true passion in Customer Experience analytics at Forrester Research, heading up a team of analysts and working as an advisor to Fortune 500 executives. I used data to show companies how well they are delivering for customers (or not), and what they could do to improve. Over time, I realized that even with good intentions and well-resourced teams, many companies struggle to create real change. Today, I use my love of working with and understanding customers to build joy-inducing experiences that make everyday life better.LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jane-lo-pingRob Whitten (he/him)Co-founder, p!ngBiographical Information: Rob Whitten is the co‑founder of p!ng, the wicked fast robotic coffee drive‑thru.

Many accounting firms feel stuck doing compliance work while leaving significant revenue on the table. In this conversation, Michelle Weinstein joins Fady Hawatmeh of Clockwork AI to explore how firms can evolve beyond bookkeeping and transactional services into high-value advisory practices. They break down why accountants often undercharge, give away free advice, and struggle with sales structure—and how shifting to value-based pricing, clear service tiers, and problem-focused consulting can dramatically increase profitability without adding more hours. Michelle and Fady also discuss overcoming impostor syndrome, packaging advisory services effectively, and using technology to scale insight-driven guidance for clients. The result is a roadmap for transforming an accounting practice into a strategic partner that drives real business growth.

Justin sits down with Allison Skidmore, Chief Customer Officer at Optimizely, the world's first operating system for marketing teams.Allison brings a rich perspective shaped by stints at Adobe, Stackla, Gigya, and SAP across Asia Pacific before landing in the US to lead customer success at Optimizely. This episode explores how AI is fundamentally reshaping the marketer's daily workflow, what great onboarding looks like in an AI-native world, and what the CCO role must become as organizations race to stay ahead.Episode Notes & Key Topics1. Allison's Career JourneyStarted in SEM at a Sydney agency later acquired by Adobe, rode the wave of digital marketing's early SaaS transition.Spent six years at Adobe running customer success across Asia Pacific, building offshore teams and subscription services models.Moved through Stackla and Gigya (acquired by SAP nine months in), then scaled the CS role across all SAP lines of business in APAC.Joined Optimizely two years ago after reconnecting with CEO Alex Atzberger, bringing global enterprise CS experience to a fast-growing martech platform.2. What Stays the Same in Customer SuccessThe sales-to-CS handover friction is timeless: it never goes away regardless of company size or stage.Digital-first customer engagement (email, offshore teams, automation) has been a constant scaling challenge for decades.The shift from time-and-materials professional services to subscription models remains a dominant trend.Tech advancements create the inflection points:  AI is today's example.3. AI and the Marketer's Day-in-the-LifeAllison paints a vivid picture: by 10 AM, an AI-enabled marketer has completed a full week's worth of work.Optimizely's Opal AI product is provisioned across the entire team, enabling agent building, workflow automation, and access to tools like Claude and Gemini.The opportunity is not just efficiency, it's the ability to pull forward backlogged work and shrink implementation timelines (e.g., from 12 months to 3).The companies moving fastest are the ones blocking calendar time to train their teams on prompting and agent-building, not just giving access.4. Reimagining Onboarding and the Customer JourneyAllison's framework: great onboarding is the seamless alignment of three channels, human-to-human touchpoints, email marketing, and in-product experience.Customers now expect to self-serve answers (just like asking AI instead of calling a mechanic), human-heavy onboarding alone no longer cuts it.Consistency is the key: the message the customer gets in the product, in their inbox, and from their CSM should be identical, no basic repeats, no skipped steps.5. The Evolving Role of the CCOThe C-suite fundamentals don't change: stay curious, solve problems, skate to where the puck is going.Today, the puck is AI.  If you can't build an agent, you can't expect your team to.Allison is actively realigning roles, KPIs, and commissions around AI-native execution.The CCO who can't leverage AI to scale themselves and reimagine their business will become extinct, just like Blockbuster.Lego is the positive model: reinvention again and again.6. What's Top of Mind for 2026AI continues to dominate, but the customer journey evolution is a close second.Consumers are shifting from Google to ChatGPT and similar tools, which means brands must optimize for GEO (Generative Engine Optimization), not just SEO.Personalization is entering a new era:  every touchpoint, not just the website.

Wonder what your child's doodles mean?Dr. Josephine Deguara joins me to discuss how children often use drawing as an early language to express thoughts and emotions before they can fully use words. We talk about how adults should avoid interpreting drawings themselves and instead ask open-ended questions to understand the child's meaning. When children are given time, materials, and attentive listeners, drawing helps them process feelings, tell stories, and explore their identity.Prof Josephine Deguara is an Associate Professor and researcher in the Department of Early Childhood and Primary Education at the University of Malta. Her work focuses on early childhood pedagogy, policy, and practice, with a particular interest in how children express their thinking and experiences through drawing. She uses children's drawings as a way of understanding identity, belonging, play, and children's funds of knowledge through participatory, rights-based research approaches.

If you were able to join us for our Transforming Together Growth Campaign meeting this past weekend, you know the room was filled with faith, generosity, and a real sense of God moving among us. If you weren't able to make it, we want to make sure you're caught up on everything that was shared, because this involves all of us.We spent time looking back at our history, and it was a good reminder of how God has led us every step of the way. From a handful of teenagers meeting above a veterinarian clinic in 1971, to renting space at what's now Generation Dance Studio, to setting up and tearing down every Sunday at Dixon School, to finally landing at our current location and eventually adding the sanctuary we worship in today. Every single chapter began with people saying yes to God, trusting Him with what they had, and watching Him do more than anyone expected.And now we find ourselves in another one of those chapters.As many of you have experienced firsthand, our building is full. Dozens of visitors are walking through our doors every week, and they keep telling us the same thing: they feel loved, they feel welcomed, they feel like they've found a home. That's because of you. The way you greet people, introduce yourselves, and make room in your lives for others is a direct reflection of the heart of Jesus, and it's beautiful.So where are we headed? We have a vision to build a new 650-seat sanctuary that will extend from our existing space through the Destiny Room. Once funds are available, the current sanctuary will be repurposed for classrooms and a flexible gym/multipurpose space. The estimated cost for the new sanctuary is $2.5 million, furnished, including things like seating and a sound system.We also got to hear from Brad and Kaylin, who shared honestly about what it looked like for them to pray through their commitment as a couple. They talked about their different personalities, their different numbers, and the way God ultimately challenged them to commit to something bigger than either of them had initially considered. Their story was a real encouragement, and it reminded us that this process is Christ-forming work in itself.Tom Melazoni, who has spent 30 years helping churches walk through seasons like this, also shared some wisdom and challenged us with three simple ideas as we consider our giving: Do away with something for a season. Delay a purchase or a plan. Or do more, whether that's extra hours or a creative way to contribute. The point is that God works differently in every household, and the gift that counts is the one that comes from a cheerful heart.So where do things stand right now? We currently have $150,000 in cash on hand toward our first milestone of $400,000, which is what we need to pursue permits. And the Growth Campaign executive team, representing five households, has already committed $151,200 toward our second milestone of $1,000,000 in three-year commitments before we break ground.We're on our way. And every commitment, every gift, every prayer moves us forward together.On Palm Sunday, March 29, we'll be collecting commitment cards. So between now and then, we're asking every person and every household in our Upper Room family to take time to pray and ask God a simple question: "Lord, what do you want to do through me?" The amount you land on is between you and God. What we care about is the heart behind it. And if God leads you to give cheerfully, then give. That's all we're asking.You can give to the Growth Campaign here:https://onrealm.org/urfellowship/give/growthcampaignYou can submit your commitment card here:https://onrealm.org/urfellowship/AddPledge/goalcardWe love you, Upper Room. God has been faithful through every season of this church's life, and He's not stopping now. We get to be part of what He's doing, and we get to do it together.Transforming Together,Chris and the URF Leadership Team

However, our communication with God should be meaningful and transformative.

    This episode of WarDocs features an in-depth conversation with LTG Mary K. Izaguirre, DO, the 46th Army Surgeon General and Commanding General of U.S. Army Medical Command. LTG Izaguirre shares her personal journey from a residency at Madigan Army Medical Center to serving in a tent in Bagram, Afghanistan, during the early stages of the war. She discusses how these early experiences shaped her understanding of the "why" behind military medicine: maintaining the trust of the American soldier by providing world-class care shoulder-to-shoulder on the battlefield. A central theme of the interview is the fundamental difference between civilian and military healthcare; while civilian systems often optimize for profit or specific health outcomes, military medicine must optimize for the mission, sometimes reprioritizing traditional medical metrics to ensure the Army remains effective in dangerous and dynamic environments.  The discussion also explores the evolving role of the Army Surgeon General as an "integrator," a position codified to synchronize medical capabilities across the entire Army and joint force. LTG Izaguirre highlights the 250-year heritage of the Army Medical Department and the 125th anniversary of the Army Nurse Corps, emphasizing that this history of overcoming "hard things" provides the foundation for today's leaders to tackle modern challenges. Looking toward the future, she identifies artificial intelligence as a current tool rather than a distant prospect, advocating for "human-machine teaming" to decrease cognitive loads and improve clinical decision-making for medics in the field. By combining these technological advancements with a flexible mindset and a commitment to people, LTG Izaguirre outlines a vision for an Army health system that is lethal, cohesive, and consistently ready to support the nation's heroes. Chapters (01:21-06:35) Path to Army Medicine (06:36-15:42) Lessons from the Front Lines (15:43-21:03) Leadership and the 250-Year Heritage (21:04-32:07) Transforming the Army Health System (32:08-41:30) AI and the Future of Combat Care   Chapter Summaries (01:21-06:35) Path to Army Medicine: LTG Izaguirre discusses her early interest in biology and how her path led from veterinary aspirations to human medicine within the U.S. Army. She explains how the Army's broad range of opportunities and scholarship programs provided a meaningful way to serve something bigger than herself. (06:36-15:42) Lessons from the Front Lines: This chapter details LTG Izaguirre's deployment to Afghanistan in 2002 and how it shifted her focus from academics to the practical realities of operational medicine. She reflects on the critical "why" of her service: providing shoulder-to-shoulder support to maintain the faith and trust of the American soldier. (15:43-21:03) Leadership and the 250-Year Heritage: LTG Izaguirre reflects on the 250-year history of Army Medicine and the 125th anniversary of the Army Nurse Corps as sources of inspiration for today's challenges. She describes her role as an "integrator," tasked with synchronizing medical capabilities across the entire Army to support the joint force. (21:04-32:07) Transforming the Army Health System: The discussion focuses on how military medicine differs from civilian systems by optimizing specifically for the mission and operational outcomes. LTG Izaguirre emphasizes the need for a flexible mindset and curiosity as the Army undergoes significant structural changes to reflect the National Security Strategy. (32:08-41:30) AI and the Future of Combat Care: LTG Izaguirre identifies artificial intelligence as a current tool that can decrease cognitive loads and assist with clinical decision-making in austere environments. She concludes with a vision for the future of Army Medicine that focuses on vibrant training, strengthened partnerships, and an unwavering commitment to the soldiers and civilians who serve.   Take Home Messages Optimizing for the Mission: The fundamental difference between military and civilian healthcare lies in what the system is optimized for: military medicine prioritizes mission readiness and operational outcomes over profit or standard health metrics. This may require reprioritizing certain medical strategies to ensure the soldier is best postured for the fight and the joint force remains effective. The Role of the Integrator: Modern medical leadership in the Army requires serving as an integrator who synchronizes capabilities across diverse commands and joint partners. This role extends beyond direct command and control to influence the entire Army health system, ensuring it is properly postured to support national defense strategies. The Power of Trust and Heritage: A 250-year heritage of overcoming difficult challenges provides the foundation for today's medical leaders to build trust within their communities and with the soldiers they serve. This trust is maintained by acting in ways consistent with the identity of both a soldier and a clinician, ensuring that the best possible care is always available on the battlefield. Human-Machine Teaming in Medicine: Artificial intelligence is a present-day tool that should be utilized through human-machine teaming to improve decision-making and reduce the mental burden on medical personnel. While technology can get a clinician to the starting line, human judgment and the "human voice" remain essential to successfully providing care in complex environments. Learning Through Listening: Effective leadership during periods of intense transformation requires being a good listener who is willing to hear difficult or differing perspectives. By understanding these viewpoints before attempting to "explain away" problems, leaders can foster curiosity and synchronization throughout their organizations.   Episode Keywords Military Medicine, Army Surgeon General, Lieutenant General Mary K.

It's easy right now to believe that the divisions we see are simply too deep to repair. That empathy has become a liability. That listening has been replaced by winning.And yet, I still believe, perhaps more than ever, that empathy remains our greatest tool for healing even the most jagged fractures in our world, not as a naïve ideal, but as a courageous, strategic choice. And that choice has the power to transform entire systems.My guest today, Dr. Claire Yorke, has devoted her career to studying exactly that possibility.We explore what empathy in politics actually looks like, why empathy is essential for effective leadership, the challenges empathetic leaders face in polarized environments, and why we can't simply wait for more empathetic political leaders to emerge.We also talk about hope. Not passive hope, but participatory hope. The kind that invites each of us - as citizens, leaders, and humans - to model empathy, practice deeper listening, and engage in shaping healthier political cultures, whether through community dialogue, civic participation, or simply choosing curiosity over certainty.This is a conversation about what's possible when we choose empathy, not as an escape from reality, but as a path forward through it.To access the episode transcript, go to www.TheEmpathyEdge.com, search by episode title.Listen in for…The relationship military leaders have with empathy and their job.What it can look like to have empathy in our politics, regardless of country.The impact of citizen assemblies and civic engagement.Why do we need to change political culture so that it attracts and rewards politicians who embrace empathy and can stop battling?Maintaining an ideal vision of what's possible and what to do to make it a reality.Steps that can be taken at the local and national levels to make changes."We need to change our politics. So it's much more about building relationships, building that sense of connectedness, both between politicians and the public, between citizens and their communities, and seeing this as an ecosystem." — Dr. Claire Yorke References:Book: Citizens: Why the Key to Fixing Everything is All of Us by Jon Alexander and Ariane ConradDemocracy NextThe Empathy Edge:Sam Daley-Harris: Reclaiming Our DemocracyMónica Guzmán: How to Have Fearlessly Curious Conversations in Divided Political TimesDr. Gina Baleria: Empathy in Journalism and Today's Media LandscapeElisa Camahort Page: The Art of Empathy in Politics, Activism, and Media BSJames Coan: Closing the Perception Gap that Tears Us ApartAbout Dr. Claire Yorke, Senior Lecturer at Deakin University, Author of Empathy in Politics and Leadership: The Key to Transforming our World:Dr. Claire Yorke is an author and academic.

Ever feel like your toddler has "selective listening"? In this episode I share how toddlers may struggle to follow directions when their receptive language skills or emotional regulation are not fully developed. Children move through three brain states—physical safety, emotional safety, and learning, and they can only process instructions and learn when they feel both safe and loved.

Ian sits down with Prachi Gore, CMO of Asana, to talk about how AI is reshaping marketing and the future of work. Prachi shares why she joined Asana, why brand and community matter more than ever in an AI-driven world, and how marketing leaders need to rethink old playbooks as buyers change how they research, discover, and adopt new tools. Key Takeaways: · Brand matters more than features. When marketing and products start to look similar, trust and reputation make the difference. · Buyers are doing more research on their own. Marketers need to win in digital channels before sales ever gets involved. · The future is more personalized marketing. AI will help teams move beyond broad campaigns to more relevant experiences.

In this episode, Dr. Narayana Murali, Chief Medical Officer of Medicine Services and Professor at Geisinger College of Health Sciences, shares how Geisinger redesigned its approach to advanced care planning, increasing engagement from 5% to nearly 50% among high risk seniors.

Carl Fudge has built his career on this principle, understanding that the central challenge founders face is not passion or product knowledge, but expertise itself. This creates an information overload problem where founders drown audiences in details instead of distilling their vision into digestible, compelling narratives. The solution requires both authorship and editing mindsets working in concert. Storytelling is not a soft skill but a hard business imperative in a crowded, capital-constrained fundraising landscape where investors are overwhelmed with pitches and attention-starved. Carl's philosophy transcends business strategy and enters the realm of personal values and organizational culture. His journey from fear-based institutions—where anxiety-driven pressure and up-or-out cultures extracted a physical and emotional toll—to founding his own company reflects a profound awakening: external markers of success like titles and income are hollow compared to alignment between your values and daily work. This realization, which came through therapy and deep self-examination, became the catalyst for building an organization operating according to his principles rather than trying to fit into systems misaligned with who he is. Work with a partner who can be an editor, thought partner, coach, and clarifier—especially at pivotal moments like fundraising, industry talks, or critical sales decks where your narrative can disproportionately impact your trajectory. At these inflection points, having someone who asks the right questions and helps you discover your own clarity is invaluable.

In this podcast, my friend Blake Prime shares how the 16-year business he built eventually became an idol that pulled him away from God, his wife, and his kids. From the outside, everything looked successful — a thriving fitness company, influence in the church, and a strong social media presence. But behind the scenes, Blake felt like a fraud. Everything changed during a mission trip to Honduras when he felt God clearly tell him to walk away from the business he had built for over a decade. Ironically, Blake first came to Steve Weatherford's Launchpad event just to see if Steve was legit — and to learn his system so he could use it himself. Instead, God used that moment to completely transform his life. In this conversation, Blake and Steve talk about success becoming an idol, the hidden struggles many men carry, and how humility, brotherhood, and surrender can lead to true freedom and restored families.
