My guest is Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, MD, PhD, Director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and Professor Emeritus of Health Policy at Stanford University. We discuss which scientific questions ought to be the priority for NIH, how to incentivize bold, innovative science especially from younger labs, how to solve the replication crisis and restore trust and transparency in science and public health, including acknowledging prior failures by the NIH. We discuss the COVID-19 pandemic and the data and sociological factors that motivated lockdowns, masking and vaccine mandates. Dr. Bhattacharya shares his views on how to resolve the vaccine–autism debate and how best to find the causes and cures for autism and chronic diseases. The topics we cover impact everyone: male, female, young and old and, given that NIH is the premier research and public health organization in the world, extend to Americans and non-Americans alike.

The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)
Have you ever asked yourself: "How do I truly lead my kids without falling into controlling behaviors?" "Is it possible to have a strong, lasting marriage while staying emotionally connected?" "How do I find purpose and resilience when life throws its biggest curveballs?" If these questions resonate, get ready for a powerful conversation that will challenge and inspire you to lead with greater intention—at home and beyond. Larry Hagner sits down with Jeremy Stalnecker—a Marine Corps veteran, father of four, pastor, and co-leader of the Mighty Oaks Foundation. Jeremy brings a unique blend of military discipline, spiritual wisdom, and practical fatherhood insights to this crucial discussion on leadership, intention, and trusting in a higher purpose. Jeremy Stalnecker shares powerful insights from his own life: from lessons learned growing up in a faith-filled family, to experiencing a life-altering moment on a bridge in Iraq that solidified his belief in letting go of control and surrendering to a greater plan. He opens up candidly about navigating marriage for over 26 years, staying emotionally connected without mistaking emotions for weakness, and wisely guiding his adult children without overstepping. Become the best husband and leader you can: https://www.thedadedge.com/mastermind In this essential conversation, we dig into: Leading Without Controlling: The crucial distinction between guiding your children with intention versus attempts at authoritarian control. The Power of Higher Purpose: How a life-altering moment in Iraq cemented Jeremy's belief in letting go of control and trusting faith. Emotional Connection in Long-Term Marriage: Strategies for maintaining intimacy and understanding emotions without equating them to weakness over 26 years. Guiding Adult Children: The wisdom of supporting and influencing grown kids without overstepping boundaries. Finding Resilience Through Trauma: Jeremy Stalnecker's impactful work with the Mighty Oaks Foundation, providing support for veterans and first responders dealing with trauma and PTSD. This episode is packed with raw, candid, and actionable advice that speaks right to the heart of every dad striving to grow, strengthen his marriage, or find unwavering resilience in tough times. Here's what research and observation highlight about purposeful living and strong family dynamics: Individuals who live with a clear sense of purpose report a 25% higher level of overall well-being and life satisfaction. Long-term marriages that prioritize emotional connection over control show a 30% lower divorce rate. Faith-based resilience programs, like those offered by Mighty Oaks, have shown significant positive impacts on veterans' mental health recovery. www.thedadedge.com/530 www.thedadedge.com/alliance www.thedadedge.com/boardroom www.jeremystalnecker.com Facebook | Instagram | YouTube
improve it! Podcast – Professional Development Through Play, Improv & Experiential Learning
In today's Workday Playdate Snack, we're talking about the kind of trust fall that doesn't involve closing your eyes and hoping Linda from Accounting catches you. Nope—we're talking about the invisible, emotional kind. The one that happens during reorgs, layoffs, and those delightfully vague “strategic shifts” when your team is quietly wondering, “Are we safe? Can we trust you? Or should I start updating my LinkedIn headline to ‘Open to Work'?” If you're leading through change (or just trying to survive it)—this snack is for you. The Problem: Here's the situation: Your company is “reimagining,” “realigning,” or “restructuring”—aka, no one knows what's actually happening. And while the all-hands slides say “exciting opportunities ahead,” your team is refreshing their résumés and watching your every move. Why? Because trust doesn't disappear in a reorg—it falls. And someone's gotta catch it. That someone? You. Trust isn't built through promises—it's built through presence. Through honesty. Through leaders who are willing to say: “Here's what I know. Here's what I don't. And here's what I do know—we'll figure it out together.” The Improv Hack to Try: The “Yes, And… But Also” Technique Here's how to lead when everything's unclear—without pretending to have all the answers.Use this structure when delivering change or uncertainty: “Yes, and…” to validate what's real and open space for what's possible “But also…” to acknowledge fears and bring humanity into the room Try this: “Yes, we're going through changes, and I know that can feel unsettling. But also—I believe in this team's ability to stay connected and support one another.” It's not spin. It's not sugarcoating. It's leadership that's rooted in reality and hope. Try it at your next team meeting. Watch what happens when trust stops falling—and starts rising.

In the final installment of the Keys to Leadership Magic series, we're diving into the third key: Connection. While Character and Confidence help anchor your leadership from the inside out, Connection is the human thread that brings it all together. It's what fuels trust, collaboration, and psychological safety in the workplace. In this episode, I explore why connection is not just a “nice to have,” but a strategic leadership priority. You'll hear insights from my recent HR conference presentation, discover the powerful ripple effects of meaningful connection, and learn my 6-part CREATE framework designed to help you embed connection into your leadership style and organizational culture. Whether you're leading a team, navigating hybrid work, or simply want to deepen your impact, this episode offers the mindset and action steps to help you lead with greater authenticity, empathy, and influence.

When there is a big scary storm going on, what do you do to stay brave? Do you find your parents and hide under them? Maybe you even like storms? Arlo and the gang learned about a storm that was especially scary for some fishermen, but Jesus took a nap right in the middle of it!Jesus Calms the Storm“When Jesus woke up, he rebuked the wind and said to the waves, ‘Silence! Be still!' Suddenly the wind stopped, and there was a great calm.” (Mark 4:39)Mark 4:35-41Jesus told us in scripture that we will face many trials in this life (John 16:33). This is a fact of life – not an “if,” but a “when.” Maybe you have not experienced trials yet or maybe you have been through more than your fair share of struggle. Whatever the case may be, God can handle it.Jesus demonstrates His power to the disciples by effortlessly calming a raging storm after suggesting He and the disciples cross the lake in a boat. Soon after setting off on their journey, a storm, described as “fierce,” comes upon them. The boat began to fill with water and, understandably so, the disciples began to panic. They looked around for Jesus, but could not find Him. Eventually, they found Him sleeping peacefully in the back of the boat. He was unfazed by the storm because He was not afraid. The disciples began yelling, “Don't you care that we are going to drown?” Jesus woke up and using only His voice, instructed the waves and wind to be still. Immediately, the storm subsided.Once the storm had ended, Jesus turned to His disciples and asked, “Why are you afraid? Do you still have no faith?” In the midst of a raging storm, Jesus felt peace because He knew He was stronger than the storm. He would not let it bring down the ship. Yet, the disciples let fear consume them when they faced the storm, not believing that Jesus could save them.When trials or “storms” enter our lives, it is easy to let our fear lead us. Let this miracle be a testament to the power of Christ in our lives. By calming the dangerous storm, He showed us that He can calm any type of storm we are facing. When something scary happens, we do not have to be afraid because Jesus has proved that He is more powerful than anything we will face, including nature.Questions to think about:What storm are you facing?What stands in the way of you handing over your fear to Christ?Is there a time in your life when Jesus has calmed a storm you faced? Trust that He can do it again.

Is your marriage lacking trust and connection? Do you feel like your partner doesn't trust you? Maybe you've heard them say that they don't feel safe with you or that they are feeling controlled or pressured by you? In this episode we talk about what trust is and how the belief that it must be earned will keep you stuck in an untrusting relationship, plus how to think about it differently so that you can lead the marriage forward and have that trust and closeness and intimacy again.In our coaching, we help men get a powerful new mindset that empowers you to give, love and connect more deeply because you're finally doing that within yourself first. This mindset allows empathy, trust and connection to happen because you're confident in who you're being. We teach skills and knowledge that nobody ever teaches men when we're younger. Skills and knowledge that make you feel confident and in control even when chaos is going on around you. It's amazing what you can achieve when you make yourself a priority. Most men don't. They are too busy taking care of everyone else. Too busy minding the store and making the money. They are focused on the "outside game" of winning life. But their "inside game" of confidence and clarity is suffering badly. You can only improve your inside game with other men. We would love to help you become more calm, more strong emotionally and more confident and happy in who you are as a man. Come and join us, either through 1-on-1 coaching with my colleague Dan Dore or me, or in our group coaching program with other amazing men who are travelling the same path as you right now in our Men's Live Coaching Roundtable.

Have you ever asked yourself: "Why does my wife seem so distant, even when we're together?" "Am I feeling more like a roommate than a partner?" "What are the subtle signs our marriage is drifting, before it's too late?" If these questions echo in your mind, today's conversation is a powerful wake-up call to the silent killer of connection. Resentment isn't always loud screaming matches or slammed doors. It's the creeping silence, the growing disinterest, the widening emotional distance. It's when she starts emotionally withdrawing while still going through the motions of life with you. Most men wait for a blow-up to take action, but by then, she might already be emotionally gone. This episode is about catching the drift long before the disconnect becomes irreversible. Become the best husband you can: https://bit.ly/deamarriageyoutube In this vital conversation, we dig into: The Unseen Buildup: Ignored Emotions, Mental Load, Unspoken Expectations. She's likely been signaling for months, maybe even years. You might have heard the words ("I'm tired," "You never ask me how I'm doing," "It's always me managing everything"), but you didn't feel their weight. She doesn't want you to solve her problems; she wants you to see her. The hidden trap: men often assume "no conflict = no problem," but most women emotionally disconnect long before they ever fight. How Emotional Debt Compounds in Marriage. Every unacknowledged frustration is like putting a charge on a credit card with no payment plan. Eventually, she hits her limit and withdraws love, affection, and energy—not out of spite, but self-preservation. This emotional debt often manifests as phrases like, "I always have to ask," "I can't count on him," or "He doesn't even notice anymore." Just like in finance, emotional debt isn't a crisis—until it is. What She Really Means When She Says, “I'm Fine.” This seemingly simple phrase is often code for, "I don't feel safe opening up to you right now." It signals, "You haven't earned the right to hear what's really going on." Most men take it literally, or defensively, rather than responding with curiosity and genuine inquiry. Here's what research and observation highlight about resentment and marital health: Studies show that consistent emotional invalidation is linked to a 30% increase in marital dissatisfaction over time. When a partner perceives an uneven distribution of the mental load, it can lead to a 40% higher likelihood of emotional withdrawal. Ignoring subtle relationship red flags for more than 6 months significantly decreases the chances of successful conflict resolution without intervention. www.thedadedge.com/friday211 www.thedadedge.com/alliance

In this season finale, we do something a little different. Instead of featuring an outside guest, we bring you behind the scenes—with the voices and minds who help design and deliver the very work this podcast explores. Dr. Heidi Brooks is joined by her colleagues David Tate and Stacey Casamassima for a candid, deeply human conversation that essentially doubles as a real team meeting. This is the team that teaches and leads “Everyday Leadership” at Yale and facilitates high-touch programs like Interpersonal and Group Dynamics, Holding Space, and more. And this time, they're turning the mic inward. Together, they reflect on the life experiences that drew them to this work, the evolution of their own learning journeys, and the frameworks and practices they use to create conditions for meaningful growth—within themselves, their students and each other. They discuss what it means to “stay” in difficult moments, how trust and ambiguity support learning, and why the ability to be present—with curiosity and care—is at the heart of human development. If you've ever wondered how transformational learning environments are built, or who's behind the scenes making them possible, this conversation is for you. Listen in as we lift the veil, share the practice, and reflect on what it really takes to co-create the conditions for learning—with integrity, intention and hope. Learning Through Experience is produced through the Yale School of Management. What resonates with you about this conversation? We'd love to hear from you—reach out to LTEpodcast@yale.edu.

Show Notes & Key Moments 00:06 – Opening the Circle: Why This Episode, Why This TeamDr. Heidi Brooks frames the episode as a rare look behind the scenes of the work and the people who create the conditions for learning. 03:02 – Disillusionment, Discovery and Stacey's Path to the Work"My graduate degree rescued me from the cynicism I found in the working world... It shaped fundamentally how I move through the world." 06:50 – The Early Seeds of David's WorkDavid Tate traces his call to group work back to junior high: "I wasn't doing much—just listening. But that act of holding space was more powerful than I realized." 16:46 – Doing Nothing—or Everything? Heidi's Story of Early Impact"They asked me to stop bringing research and just ask questions. I thought I was doing nothing—but something powerful was happening in that space." 28:06 – What Creates the Conditions for Learning?Stacey and David explore the inner and outer structures that make learning possible—from psychological safety to intentional ambiguity and trust. 40:19 – Against Individualism: Learning as a Shared, Social Experience"Can we meditate out loud—together?" Stacey reframes learning as a relational practice that counters dominant culture's emphasis on the individual. 46:32 – Stay or Cancel? Trust, Reaction, and the Practice of Presence"Stay is not the same as tolerate." The team discusses cancel culture, self-protection, and the challenge of staying present through discomfort and difference. 53:10 – The Power of Discussability and Repair"Not only are we noticing, but we're going to talk about it—and recover." Stacey reflects on what makes it possible to risk and trust in community. 57:01 – Hope for Humanity: What This Work Makes Possible"Our students go out and ripple this work into the world. That gives me hope." David and Stacey share final reflections on why this work matters. Resources: Yale Courses in Organizational Behavior: https://faculty.som.yale.edu/heidibrooks/courses/ David C.

In this episode Brookings's scholar Jonathan Rauch explores America's historically unprecendented position as a "high-tech, low trust society" - a dangerous combination where technological advancement coexists with collapsing social trust. Trust levels have plummeted since the 1970s warns Rauch, with America now ranking 52nd globally in believing strangers would return a lost wallet. He traces this decline to systematic attacks on institutions from both left and right, formented by libertarian populists. He warns that without rebuilding trust - which is seven times more important in determining life satisfaction- democracy itself will remain at existential risk.

In this essential bonus episode of the Sex with Emily podcast, Dr. Emily tackles one of the most common and complicated questions in modern relationships: Does watching porn count as cheating? If you've ever felt that stomach-dropping moment when you discovered your partner's browser history, or wondered if your own porn consumption crosses a line, this episode is for you. Dr. Emily cuts straight through the confusion to reveal that there's no universal answer to this question—but if it's coming up in your relationship, there's something deeper worth exploring. The real issue isn't necessarily the porn itself, but whether this behavior is breaking trust and violating the agreements you've made with your partner. We explore why so many couples never discuss porn until someone gets hurt, how childhood conditioning around secrecy affects our adult relationships, and why the shame and silence surrounding porn often cause more damage than the porn itself. Dr. Emily also addresses when porn consumption can become genuinely problematic and offers practical guidance for having these crucial conversations. Key Topics Covered: Why there's no universal definition of cheating The difference between porn use and porn problems How secrecy and shame damage relationships more than porn Why many people never discuss boundaries until it's too late When porn consumption becomes genuinely concerning How to have honest conversations about digital boundaries Moving from assumptions to actual agreements This episode emphasizes that porn doesn't ruin relationships—it's the lack of communication, transparency, and mutual understanding that creates problems. Whether you're completely comfortable with porn or feel threatened by it, this episode provides the framework for having honest, productive conversations about digital intimacy boundaries. Show Notes: 00:00:00 - The moment of discovery: When porn feels like betrayal 01:30:00 - Why there's no universal answer to "Is it cheating?" 03:00:00 - The real issue: Trust and agreements vs. assumptions 04:30:00 - When porn becomes genuinely problematic 05:30:00 - How to start the conversation about boundaries Remember: Communication is always sexier than making assumptions and making your partner wrong.

Is your online donation form secretly scaring donors away? In this episode of Inspired Nonprofit Leadership, I'm joined by Josh Bloomfield, founder of GiveCloud, for a refreshingly honest look at why most nonprofit fundraising tech is stuck in the past—and how small changes can make a big impact. We talk about “trust-raising” instead of just fundraising, what nonprofits can learn from e-commerce giants like Amazon, and why a slow, thoughtful donor journey almost always beats a rushed one. If your donation form feels like an IRS document, it's time for a change.

The story is told that on one Erev Rosh Hashanah, Rav Bunim of Peshischa came to his Rebbe, the Chozeh of Lublin, to receive a berachah. However, he noticed that the Chozeh was hesitant. At the time, Rav Bunim had a successful business, but the Chozeh revealed to him that he had seen a decree in Heaven that during the coming year, Rav Bunim would lose all of his parnassah. On Yom Kippur, Rav Bunim poured out his heart in tefillah, with sincere tears and deep emotion. Though his business later faced serious challenges and was nearly shut down, not only was it saved — his parnassah actually doubled. When Rav Bunim returned to the Chozeh on Erev Pesach, the Rebbe greeted him warmly and told him he knew with certainty that Rav Bunim's tefillah on Yom Kippur had shaken the heavens and changed the decree from hardship to great blessing. This story reminds us that our tefillot can do wonders, but only if we truly believe in their power. The Nefesh Shimshon explains that when Avraham Avinu established the tefillah of Shacharit, he didn't merely create a morning prayer; he infused it with his own spiritual energy and power. Every time we pray Shacharit, we do so with the merit and spiritual momentum of Avraham Avinu behind us. The same is true for Yitzchak Avinu, who established Minchah, and Yaakov Avinu, who established Arbit. These tefillot were not only composed — they were charged with the deepest essence of the Avot, and that strength continues to support our prayers today. Similarly, every time a person opens a Tehillim, they are not just reading words on a page — they are connecting to the neshama of David HaMelech. Each word of Tehillim is imbued with his spiritual strength, his longing, his struggles, and his closeness to Hashem. Hashem is already close to us, waiting to hear our every word. But now we understand that our tefillot are not coming from us alone — they are carried by the koach of those who established them. Chazal teach us that there is special power in a tefillah that comes with kavanah and tears. When we realize just how valuable our prayers are and how much they can accomplish, we gain new strength and motivation to pray with deeper emotion and sincerity. One woman shared her personal experience: she had been struggling with shidduchim for years. The suggestions that came her way were few and far between, and none of them seemed right. Still, she prayed daily to Hashem to send her the right zivug. What kept her emotionally afloat was the fact that she had good friends that she was close to, and then one day out of nowhere, one of her closest friends who had gotten married told her she would no longer be able to continue their relationship. This news was devastating to her. She spoke to this friend every day. She was her lifeline of support. Shortly afterward, she traveled to Eretz Yisrael. Before returning home, she went to the Kotel to pray. Instead of complaining and bemoaning her fate, she decided to channel all of her pain and emotion into the most heartfelt tefillah. She cried to Hashem for her zivug and in her words, it was the most powerful tefillah she had ever made. The very next day, upon returning home, she received a call from a shadchan with a new suggestion — the man she would soon marry. These stories illustrate that tefillah has the power to change everything. It is up to us to believe that Hashem is listening, and that every word we say matters. We are never alone. When we pray with heart and connect genuinely to Hashem, we can draw down brachot that are far beyond anything we could expect. As the pasuk says: קָרוֹב ה' לְכָל־קֹרְאָיו לְכֹל אֲשֶׁר יִקְרָאֻהוּ בֶאֱמֶת (Tehillim 145:18) Let us strengthen ourselves to approach tefillah not as a routine, but as a living bridge to the Ribbono Shel Olam — a moment to pour out our soul, to draw from the merit of the Avot and tzaddikim, and to unlock the gates of blessing with every sincere word we say.

Dean and Alison are just a day away from the Little House on the Prairie Cast Reunion at Columbia State Historic Park—but there's still plenty of time to recap one of the funniest episodes in Little House history!This week, we dig into “Here Come the Brides” (Season 4), where we come to a shocking realization: almost every Little House wedding is a surprise wedding. Seriously—BOOM. No invitations. No planning. Just, “Surprise! You're hitched!”This episode has it all: Nellie in full teenage heat (seriously, someone hand her a fan), Mrs. Oleson attempting homicide, and little Willy not giving even half a hoot. Pig farming somehow becomes sexy, Miss Beadle (the fabulous Charlotte Stewart) becomes a Mrs., and Nellie is crowned the Pig Queen of Minnesota…for approximately ten minutes.Alison shares some epic behind-the-scenes stories—how Jonathan Gilbert came up with that pratfall, what it was like working with “Luke,” and the sneaky way Charlotte helped cast her future husband in the show. She also reflects (with just a tiny bit of cringing) on just how, uh… aggressively enthusiastic Nellie was in this one. It's pure comedy gold.And of course—join us on Patreon, where Alison spills even more tea about this episode. Trust us, it's worth it.Links and Resources:Haven't signed up for Patreon yet?

This summer, I am not focused on launching something new. I am focused on building something essential: playbooks. Clear, step-by-step documentation that makes our business run smoother, with or without me. Dan Martell's book Buy Back Your Time reminded me that real freedom comes from documented systems, not just delegation. And my friend Stacy Tuschl challenged us to not just build playbooks, but to test them. That hit hard! The truth is, I learned this lesson the hard way. One of my team members broke her foot during a major launch and suddenly we realized she was the only one who knew how to do a few key crucial elements of her job. From that moment on, I knew that if we wanted peace, to grow with ease, and to actually protect our people, we had to build the playbooks for each role. So, come along this journey with me while I explain what a playbook is, how we're building them out, and how we're testing them!

Hey, Heal Squad! We're bringing back a powerful two-part conversation with Anthony William, otherwise known as the Medical Medium! Trust us, it's just as relevant today as it was when we first aired it. In Part 1, Anthony opens up about the misunderstood root causes of so many chronic health issues, from anxiety and fatigue to autoimmune conditions and mystery symptoms doctors often dismiss. He explains why heavy metals, viral load, and liver congestion may be silently impacting your brain, skin, energy, and even your relationships. Anthony also dives into how foods like celery juice, wild blueberries, and lemon water are more than just trends…they're powerful tools to cleanse, rebuild, and restore your body from the inside out. If you've ever felt unheard, misdiagnosed, or stuck in survival mode, this episode is for you. Tune in to start getting answers and real solutions that empower you to take your healing into your own hands. HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS: Toxic overload isn't just food-related. Fragrances, heavy metals, and environmental pollution are silent contributors to chronic illness, and most people don't even know they're being exposed. Fish oil isn't always a friend. While often seen as a health staple, Anthony challenges its benefits and warns about hidden dangers most doctors won't tell you about. Your bloodwork may not be telling the full story. Common testing practices could disrupt your body more than help it. Anthony explains how to protect your health when giving blood samples. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi code: SQUAD EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/ Join In-Person Heal Retreat Waitlist! https://mariamenounos.myflodesk.com/heal-retreat-waitlist THE MEDICAL MEDIUM RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/medicalmedium/?hl=en Website: https://www.medicalmedium.com/ Find Anthony's books (& some of my other favorites!) here: https://shopmy.us/collections/106835 ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.
