Rebecca Matchett is a serial entrepreneur, fashion innovator, and now tech founder who's built her career around solving real-world problems. From co-founding Alice + Olivia to developing a patented women's sizing system called TrioFit, Rebecca has consistently combined creativity and practicality to build impactful businesses. Now, she's channeling that same drive into Synchrony—a new social app designed to help neurodivergent adults connect and combat loneliness in meaningful ways. On this episode we talk about: How Rebecca transitioned from fashion and retail into tech entrepreneurship The story behind founding Alice + Olivia and what she learned about branding and innovation Why ideas alone aren't enough—and how to validate your market before launching The challenges and benefits of self-funding vs. outside investment How Synchrony is using technology to address the loneliness epidemic among neurodivergent adults Top 3 Takeaways Great businesses start by solving problems you truly understand—personal experience is a powerful indicator of market need. Validation matters more than inspiration. Don't build before you know who actually wants your product. Bootstrapping gives you control, focus, and creative freedom that investors often limit. Notable Quotes “Ideas are easy. Execution and validation are what separate entrepreneurs from dreamers.” “When you solve a problem for yourself, you're often solving it for thousands of others.” “Connection is the most human need we have—and we're building a tool to make that accessible again.” Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of Parenting Understood, we are joined by Dr. Debbie Raphael, a child and adult psychiatrist, to discuss how her personal experiences as a parent intertwine with her professional insights. Dr. Raphael shares how becoming a mother during her child psychiatry fellowship deepened her understanding of validation, attunement, and mentalization—skills that foster healthy emotional development in children. She explains how parents' ability to validate their child's feelings builds self-trust and resilience from early childhood through adolescence. The conversation also explores the importance of community support, self-care, and maintaining balance between empathy and boundaries. Dr. Raphael introduces her forthcoming book, which integrates clinical research and lived experience to guide parents in creating positive childhood experiences that buffer against stress and adversity. We reflect on how nurturing connection—both within families and communities—supports mental health across generations.
Building the right thing is hard. Building the wrong thing is easy and costly. In this episode, Jason Sparks, Principal Product Manager at ReUp Education, dives deep into the discipline of continuous validation inside enterprise environments. From managing stakeholder pressure to proactively engaging customers in discovery, Jason shares battle-tested approaches for avoiding the classic trap of solution-first thinking.Chapters0:00 – The risk of unvalidated assumptions1:02 – Meet Jason Sparks and his mission at ReUp3:02 – From college dropout to product leader5:19 – Product-market fit inside the enterprise6:03 – Why most ideas don't need building8:10 – Misalignment: wrong product, wrong market10:05 – Executive interference and assumption management12:33 – Validation is not a one-off14:44 – Continuous discovery in practice15:38 – How to validate enterprise product ideas17:02 – Story decks, user interviews and field testing19:11 – Grading feedback and customer fit21:11 – The danger of over-friendly users23:08 – The power of early champions25:21 – Preparing for and running discovery sessions27:35 – Value testing and competitor awareness29:08 – When to walk away from the wrong customer31:17 – What happens after the meetings33:30 – The role of AI in user research35:46 – What Jason would do differently todayWhat you'll learn from Jason— Validation should be continuous: One round of user feedback isn't enough. Real product-market fit evolves through repeated conversations and iteration.— Assumptions must be challenged: Build a culture where being proven wrong is celebrated, not feared.— Don't let leadership derail discovery: Product managers must set boundaries and bring clarity on the problem space before execution begins.— Grading users is as critical as grading feedback: Identify the right customers to listen to—being nice isn't the same as being the right fit.— Use discovery decks to guide conversations: Jason uses bold assumptions, interactive sessions, and immediate iteration to refine ideas quickly.— Tech accelerates, but doesn't replace, human insight: AI tools for sentiment and semantic analysis are powerful but should supplement—not substitute—real human interaction.Featured Links:We're taking Community Questions for The Product Experience podcast.Got a burning product question for Lily, Randy, or an upcoming guest?

**ZUM INHALT** Interne Expert:innen sowie Fach- und Stabsstellen in HSE & Q investieren viel Lebenszeit, ihr ureigenstes Ziel im Unternehmen zu stärken - oft gegen Widerstände und immer im Wettbewerb um Zeit und Ressourcen. Was hält sie dabei „bei der Stange“? Was hilft, vermeintliche „Randthemen“, sichtbar zu halten und konsequent voranzutreiben? Aus Coachings, Trainings und Werkstattformaten habe ich dazu reichlich Erfahrungswissen gesammelt. Diesmal wollte ich es systematischer fassen — und zugleich ausprobieren, was künstliche Intelligenz (KI) dabei leistet und wo ihre Grenzen liegen. Also habe ich mehrere thematisch passende Abfragen ausgewertet: Die Transkription handschriftlicher Karten klappte erstaunlich gut; beim Verstehen und Clustern der Aussagen in die Empowerment-Kategorien nach Gretchen Spreitzer (kennst du vielleicht schon aus dem Podcast 96 mit Susanne Hansen) waren die KI und ich jedoch selten einer Meinung… In dieser Episode - fasse ich einige typische Abfrage-Ergebnisse zusammen, - übersetze Empowerment und konkretisiere die 4 Kraftfelder nach Spreitzer, - ordne die Äußerungen aus Workshops diesen Kraftfeldern zu, - lese einige Trends und Auffälligkeiten heraus (ohne KI!) und - leite daraus Tipps und „Tankstellen“ für den Arbeitsalltag ab. Warnung: Diese Erkundung ist nicht statistisch abgesichert – empowern kann sie trotzdem! **SHOWNOTES** **Der erwähnte Podcast** [Podcast 96: Jenseits von Compliance – Wie Empowerment Arbeitssicherheit wirksam macht – Susanne Hansen im Gespräch](https://susannepetersen.com/podcast-97-empowerment-im-praxischeck/) **Quellen und Bücher ** Zeitgemäß und gut verständlich dargestellt ist das Empowermentthema (mit dem Spreitzer-Modell) auch hier: Schermuly, Carsten (2024): New Work – Gute Arbeit gestalten – Psychologisches Empowerment von Mitarbeitenden.

In this conversation, Yashasvini Gopalan, co-founder of Smortr, shares her journey from aspiring architect to entrepreneur in the construction tech space. She discusses her early inspirations, challenges during architecture school, and the transition to the U.S., where she explored B2B marketing and product development. Yashasvini explains the inception of Smortr, highlighting the urgent need for better data management in the construction industry. She dives into product validation, overcoming PDF-heavy workflows, and how customer feedback shapes product iterations. The episode closes with insights on the future of construction tech and advice for young entrepreneurs. Takeaways Yashasvini's early inspiration came from observing how architecture impacts people's lives. Architecture school built her foundation for understanding complex systems. Transitioning to B2B marketing unlocked new perspectives on data fragmentation. Smortr was born from the need for better construction data management. Problem discovery required deep engagement with industry professionals for validation. Product building is iterative — constant learning and adaptation are critical. Managing large PDF-based workflows is a major pain point in construction tech. Her advice for aspiring founders: embrace software and technology early. Networking is invaluable; many are willing to help if approached. The future of construction tech is promising with innovative startups emerging.

There are a few conversations that stop me in my tracks, and this was one of them. Sitting across from Tim and Demi-Leigh Tebow, I wasn't just speaking to a Heisman Trophy winner and a former Miss Universe. I was sitting with two people who live out their faith with more authenticity, humility, and conviction than almost anyone I've ever met. What struck me most is how both of them, despite the platforms they've been given, have had to wrestle with identity, comparison, loss, and purpose, just like the rest of us. Tim shared the heart behind his new book Look Again and what it really means to understand your worth through God's eyes, not the world's. When he said, “We use people and value things, instead of valuing people and using things,” it hit me hard. He reminded us that every single human being carries the image of God, that you're not just bearing His image, you are His image. You are royalty. That truth changes how you see yourself and how you see others. Demi opened up about her journey from wearing the Miss Universe crown to realizing that she had attached her identity to it and the freedom she found when she handed it back. She also shared the raw pain of losing her father just days before our conversation and how she's choosing faith in the middle of heartbreak. Her story is one of strength, surrender, and trust, choosing not to ask “Why?” but “Where?” Where is God working this together for good? That perspective will change how you face every challenge in your own life. We also talked about something that's destroying people quietly, comparison. Tim reminded us that comparison kills joy. You can't be grateful and envious at the same time. And Demi shared her own powerful insight: when you scroll through social media, you're often letting people who don't love you speak into your life. It's time to take back that space and fill it with truth. And perhaps most moving of all, we dove into the heart of their work through the Tim Tebow Foundation, serving the most vulnerable around the world. From survivors of human trafficking to children with special needs, they're proof that when you stop and see people the way God does, everything changes. You don't need a big platform to make a difference, you just need a willing heart. Key Takeaways: How to find your true identity and worth through God's eyes Why comparison kills joy and how to break free from it How to find hope and peace in the middle of loss The difference between bearing God's image and being His image How small acts of compassion can create massive change in someone's life This is one of those conversations you'll feel deep in your soul. If you've ever doubted your worth, questioned your faith, or wondered if God still sees you, this one's for you. Max out your life. Also don't miss out on MAXOUT2026: Once a year, I open my home for an intimate one-day experience unlike anything else I do. This year, I'm making it even smaller, just 12 to 15 people.

If you're curious as to whether you have any stored emotions or trauma that might be causing your illness, preventing you from achieving your goals, or even just showing up as the best, authentic version of yourself, I invite you to take my free Stored Emotions and Trauma QuizThat person isn't copying you. They're showing you something you haven't owned yet.In this episode, I delve into the distinction between shadow projection and mirror reflection, and why it matters for anyone who aspires to lead, heal, or simply act with greater integrity. We unpack the subtle ways projection hides in plain sight, how it sneaks into your reactions, and why it's often rooted in the parts of yourself you've pushed away.This isn't about blaming or fixing. It's about awareness, learning to recognize when your judgments are really mirrors, when your triggers are teachers, and when it's time to take back your power from what you've projected. Sometimes the hardest work isn't seeing others clearly, but seeing yourself without distortion. Once you start catching your own projections, everything changes, especially your peace.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[01:48] What shadow projection really means and how it hides behind judgment[05:36] Why emotionally “informed” people often project the most without realizing it[07:12] The real reason others trigger you, and what it reveals about your inner work[09:45] How mirror reflection helps you see your strengths and wounds more clearly[11:33] The subtle ways wanting validation or being “seen” can expose hidden shadows[13:02] What feeling “not enough” actually signals about self-worth and authenticity[15:21] Why overpraising others can be just as revealing as criticism[18:47] The difference between constructive feedback and projection in disguise[21:40] How to spot, own, and integrate your projections so you stop giving away your peaceFind More From Dr. Stephanie Davis:Dr. Stephanie Davis | WebsiteQuantum Rx | InstagramQuantum Rx | Skool

Alicia shares an interesting perspective after listening to a podcast that tests the performance behind someone who is being validated vs no validation provided. ALSO LET'S GET LOUD 2026 IS ALREADY ON SALE! AS WELL AS THE AFTER PARTY!
We've all done it - spent money we didn't plan to spend on something we didn't really need. As we continue our Over It: When Enough is Enough series, we get real about overspending. It's easy to blame overspending on not having enough money - but it's not. We spend for all sorts of reasons we don't usually admit. Comfort. Control. Validation. And while some purchases bring real joy, most are nothing more than temporary hits of dopamine, pulling focus from our goals, draining our bank account, and stealing our peace of mind. Every swipe, every click, every impulse purchase isn't just spending money — it's a choice about where our attention, energy, and resources go. It's time to be honest about how we're spending and why we've stopped hesitating before handing over that card. This isn't about needing more money - it's about paying attention to what we're really chasing when we spend it

Send us a textWhat happens when your focus on health quietly turns into a need for validation or proving your worth? In this episode, I share a real moment of self-awareness that made me realize when my fitness goals were drifting away from focusing fully on health and feeling good toward being seen, approved of, and “enough.”I'll walk you through how I noticed this pattern, what helped me shift my perspective, and how to build a healthy body image mindset that comes from self-respect instead of self-criticism.If you've ever caught yourself chasing fitness to feel worthy, this one's for you.Timestamps:00:00 Introduction and Episode Overview00:24 Personal Project Update: Energy and Habits01:25 Mindset and Self-Judgment03:51 Fitness Goals: Health vs. Validation05:51 The Moment of Realization08:21 Shifting Motivation: From Fear to Self-Respect18:12 Conclusion and TakeawaysKey Takeaways:Why awareness is the first step toward changing how we relate to our bodies.The subtle difference between striving for health and chasing validation.How to use tracking and data as neutral tools, not measures of worth.Simple mindset shifts to reconnect with your healthiest, most authentic self.Resources & Links:Read the blog post: https://www.kortneyrivard.com/blogTake the free "Habit Hangups" Quiz HEREConnect on Instagram: @kortney.a.rivard Support the showWant more?For more information about the podcast, visit www.realbraveunstoppable.com.

Today, we feature a conversation with Katherine Lazar, a mum who has experienced her first child's death through stillbirth. About this week's guestKatherine Lazar currently lives in Atlanta, GA in the US and is married to the love of her life, Brody's dad, Michael. When she was 37 weeks pregnant, her precious son died and was stillborn. The sorrow following his death almost killed her. Conversations with other loss moms saved her. She decided to record them and put them out for others to hear. If they helped her feel less alone, maybe they could help others. She's so proud to have created this in Brody's honor and to give other mothers a platform to talk about their babies. At the time of recording this episode, they were expecting their second child, and navigating the world of pregnancy after loss is a whole new battle. However, Katherine has spent a lot of time putting in the work with grief therapy & trauma recovery, surrounding herself with good people, having a great support system, and amazing doctors this time around. She feels ready for whatever comes her way. She misses her son every day and knows that she will see him again someday. Until then, she will continue to tell her story, be very open about her journey, and help other loss mothers find light in the dark.Support the show

And validation won't get you better results.This week, Chris breaks down why we do this, how it's killing your growth, and what to do instead.You'll learn:✅ Why coaching isn't supposed to feel good✅ How confirmation bias keeps shop owners stuck✅ What happens when you stop chasing agreement and start embracing accountability✅ The difference between “I want to feel better” and “I want to get better”
Send us a textOne DNS bug shouldn't take your business offline—but it did for thousands. We open with the AWS East outage to show how a single point of failure in DNS can cascade through critical systems, then get tactical about building resilience that actually holds up under stress. From multi‑region architecture and failover planning to budget trade‑offs leaders often dodge, we make the case for redundancy you can defend to finance and prove with tests, not promises.From there, we translate CISSP Domain 6.4 into actionable steps. You'll hear how to structure vulnerability reports that leaders read and teams use: crisp executive summaries, deep technical details, and remediation plans with owners and timelines. We contrast internal and external scans—what they find, where they break, and how to plan windows that won't knock over production. Expect practical guidance on ranking findings by business impact, taming false positives, and using trend analysis to show improvement over time.Validation and exception handling take center stage as we walk through verifying exploitability, aligning CVSS with real risk, and documenting exceptions the right way. When patching isn't possible, we outline compensating controls like segmentation, WAFs, logging, and virtual patching that reduce exposure without halting operations. We close with ethical disclosure best practices—coordinated timelines, bug bounty channels, and the legal safeguards that keep researchers and organizations on the same team.If you want resilient architectures, credible reporting, and a vulnerability program that leadership trusts, this conversation gives you the blueprint.

In this episode of LaidOPEN Podcast, host Charna Cassell sits down with award-winning playwright, performer, and teacher Ann Randolph, whose autobiographical solo shows blend comedy, storytelling, and profound transformation. Together they explore their long-held desire to collaborate — a journey guided by synchronicity, presence, and creative courage. Ann shares how her early days working the graveyard shift at a homeless shelter evolved into a celebrated career sharing the stage with icons like Mel Brooks and Alanis Morissette. She opens up about using comedy to approach trauma, the healing power of daily writing, and the importance of embodying your story rather than just telling it. Charna and Ann dive deep into the somatic roots of storytelling, the interplay between vulnerability and creative freedom, and the spiritual practices that sustain both art and healing. Whether you're a writer, performer, or simply someone seeking personal transformation, this conversation invites you to embrace failure, presence, and play as pathways to authentic expression and connection.

In today's episode of the Recover to Flourish podcast, we're unpacking a really harmful myth that so many people in recovery struggle with — the idea that you're not “sick enough” to have an eating disorder. Maybe you've felt like your struggles don't count because you don't look a certain way or haven't hit some invisible threshold. I get it — I've been there too. In this episode, I'll share why this mindset is so damaging, where it comes from, and how to start validating your own experience, no matter what your eating disorder has looked like. You don't have to reach a crisis point to deserve help or healing. Recovery belongs to everyone who's struggling, and I want to help you see that your pain is valid and your recovery is worth it.Let me know your thoughts!

Dr. Caroline Fleck shares with Gabby Reece the #1 communication skill from psychology (DBT) you need to master: VALIDATION. Learn how this essential relationship tool will transform your marriage, parenting, and friendships. The psychologist & author of Validation breaks down the exact steps to build deep connection, manage conflict, and achieve emotional regulation. In this powerful episode of The Gabby Reece Show, host Gabby Reece and Dr. Caroline Fleck, a clinical psychologist and author of the book Validation: How the skillset that revolutionized psychology will transform your relationship, increase your influence, and change your life, discuss the profound impact of true validation. Validation is more than just listening or feeling empathy; it is a communication skill that must be mastered to truly convey understanding and acceptance. Dr. Fleck reveals why this essential skill is typically only taught in advanced doctoral psychology programs (Dialectical Behavior Therapy or DBT) and how you can apply it to your everyday life to build stronger bonds and reduce conflict. Key Takeaways You'll Learn: The crucial difference between "problem-solving" and "validation" in real-life scenarios, especially with children. The six levels of validation (the "validation ladder") and how to use them to instantly improve your communication. Practical strategies for managing intense emotions and conflict using DBT's TIP skills (Temperature, Intense Exercise, Paced Breathing). The power of a genuine apology, even as a parent, to model the behavior you want your kids to learn.

Send Dr. Li a text here. Please leave your email address if you would like a reply, thanks.Dr. Christine Li welcomes her friend and colleague Laurie Reynoldson, host of the School of Midlife podcast and a leader in supporting women through midlife transitions. Together, they dive deep into the topic of limiting beliefs—those internal barriers that hold women back from creating their best, most fulfilling lives. Laurie Reynoldson is a sought-after podcaster, coach, speaker and the founder of the School of Midlife®. After an award-winning 20-year career as an attorney, Laurie left the law when she was on the verge of joining the partnership at a large super-regional firm, the job she'd worked her entire career to land. She knows exactly what it feels like to have everything you've ever thought you always wanted in life, but still feel like something is missing. Which is why she's made it her mission to provide women with the tools, information, support and community to thrive in midlife…and skip the midlife crisis.Timestamps:00:03:40 – Limiting beliefs in midlife00:04:46 – Retreat story & best life00:10:23 – Internal editor, handling negativity00:13:43 – Building belief, validation00:15:16 – Power of community00:17:24 – Laurie's career backstory00:24:29 – Courage & happiness00:29:08 – Happiness & fulfillment00:30:11 – Where to find LaurieTo get Laurie's secret podcast and other free resources, go to: https://schoolofmidlife.com/starthereTo register for Dr. Li's next Re-Energize Your Home Challenge to declutter your home, go to https://maketimeforsuccesspodcast.com/challengeTo sign up for the Waitlist for the Simply Productive Program, go to https://maketimeforsuccesspodcast.com/SPFor more information on the Make Time for Success podcast, visit: https://www.maketimeforsuccesspodcast.comGain Access to Dr. Christine Li's Free Resource Library -- 12 downloadable tools and templates to help you bypass the impulse to procrastinate: https://procrastinationcoach.mykajabi.com/freelibraryTo work with Dr. Li on a weekly basis in her coaching and accountability program, register for The Success Lab here: https://www.procrastinationcoach.com/labConnect with Us!Dr. Christine LiWebsite: https://www.procrastinationcoach.comFacebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/procrastinationcoachInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/procrastinationcoach/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@procrastinationcoachThe Success Lab: https://maketimeforsuccesspodcast.com/lab Laurie ReynoldsonWebsite: https://www.schoolofmidlife.comPodcast: https://www.schoolofmidlife.com/podcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/schoolofmidlifeLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/laurie-reynoldson-b28b921a/
Liver transplantation continues to evolve as strategies expand to address organ shortage and optimize outcomes. Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) offers a novel way to preserve and assess donor livers prior to implantation. In this episode of Behind the Knife, our transplant team at University of Nebraska Medical Center discusses the latest evidence from randomized trials, practical applications in donation after circulatory death (DCD) grafts, and how NMP is shaping clinical decision-making in high-risk transplants. Hosts - Madeline Cloonan, MD PhD, General Surgery Resident, University of Nebraska Medical Center, @maddie_cloonan - Jacqueline Dauch, MD, Assistant Professor, University of Nebraska Medical Center - Shaheed Merani, MD PhD, Associate Professor, University of Nebraska Medical Center - Alan Langnas, DO, Professor, University of Nebraska Medical Center Learning Objectives - Describe the principles of normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) and how it differs from static cold storage. - Summarize the design and key outcomes of the PROTECT trial and the Chapman et al. trial on NMP in liver transplantation. - Recognize the clinical scenarios where NMP provides the greatest benefit, particularly in high-risk grafts (e.g., DCD donors, high donor risk index). - Apply a practical viability assessment framework for livers on NMP, including hemodynamics, bile production, lactate trajectory, and histology when indicated. - Discuss the implications of NMP for allocation, system logistics, and future adoption trends in transplantation.

When your teen snaps or shuts down, could anxiety be hiding underneath?What can you do—today—to support them without “fixing” them? Colleen talks with therapist and author Sophia Vale Galano, LCSW about recognizing teen anxiety (including surprising signs like irritability and anger), the biological and cultural drivers (from hormones to social media and admissions pressure), and what actually helps at home. They unpack why quick fixes backfire, how to communicate about hard topics, and ways to modify expectations, build self-esteem, and set boundaries over blanket restrictions (e.g., muting or curating feeds instead of banning apps). Sophia shares practical scripts, “what to say/what to avoid,” and mom-first strategies like leading by example and using preventive care long before a crisis. Sophia Vale Galano is a licensed clinical social worker serving teens and adults in California. With experience across residential, inpatient, outpatient, and school settings, she specializes in adolescent anxiety and parent coaching. Her new book, Calming Teenage Anxiety, gives parents concrete tools and phrases to support anxious teens with clarity and compassion. Three takeaways: Listen before you fix. Validation opens the door; advice can slam it shut. Boundaries beat restrictions. Curate tech (mute/restrict/positive follows) rather than blanket bans to protect self-esteem and trust. Model what you want to see. Your therapy, rest, limits, and self-care quietly teach your teen how to manage anxiety.
