When Jay Pitter was eight years old and out shopping with her mother, she began swaying to the music at the mall. Her mother scolded her for it — signalling that it was undignified for a Black person to act that way in public. That incident was the genesis for Black Public Joy: No Permit Or Permission Required. In her book, she addresses the self-policing Black people can internalise, and reveals how culture, urban planning, and memory shape the way people can access joy in parks, streets, transit, and neighbourhoods.Guest in this episode:Jay Pitter is an award-winning placemaker focused on creating joyful public spaces that foster belonging, prosperity, and cultural memory. She advances this work through cultural planning, policy frameworks, and storytelling. Pitter is also an adjunct urban planning professor and has engaged students at Cornell, Princeton, and MIT, advancing new theories of public joy that connect practice, policy, and pedagogy.

Recorded LIVE at the HPX High Performance Expo, Charlotte NC, June 2026. Speaker Tony Whatley challenges owners to ask whether their company would grow if they disappeared for 90 days, arguing many entrepreneurs accidentally build high-paying jobs that buyers won't want. He explains that businesses with the same revenue can have very different valuations, from owner-dependent chaos (near-zero value) to profitable but messy operations (lower multiples) to a predictable "money machine" earning premium multiples. Valuation is built in the 2–3 years before a sale, yet only about 20% of listed businesses sell, often due to owner dependence and risk. Drawing on his ls1tech.com exit, he outlines six drivers of enterprise value: predictable revenue and diversified acquisition channels, documented processes and SOPs, reduced owner dependency via teams/KPIs/decision authority, KPI-driven management, building a brand beyond the founder, and cleaning up financials, contracts, and records to reduce buyer risk. 00:00 If You Vanish 90 Days 00:47 Three Business Valuations 03:20 Exit Timing and Odds 04:34 Founder Exit Story 05:39 Six Value Drivers 05:47 Predictable Revenue 10:18 Document Processes 14:19 Reduce Owner Dependency 18:22 Measure What Matters 21:45 Build a Sellable Brand 24:45 Clean Up for Buyers 29:37 Enterprise Value Scorecard

In today's episode, we continue our journey through Luke 15:1–10, where Jesus shares two more parables with the crowds. Together, we explore the consistent response of both the shepherd and the woman: in the face of loss, they set everything else aside to pursue what is missing. And when the lost sheep and coin are found, their response is one of abundant celebration. As people invited to participate in the Kingdom of God, we are likewise called to recognize the immense value of every person around us. These parables challenge us to pursue the lost with intentionality and to celebrate joyfully whenever someone experiences the grace and life of God's kingdom.

What happens when schools see refugee students through a lens of deficit instead of possibility? In this episode of Our Classroom, Roberto Germán sits down with Dr. Yacoub Aljaffery, author of Narratives of Success and Resilience of Students from Refugee Backgrounds in U.S. Schools: From Invisible to Valuable, to discuss what educators need to understand about refugee students, multilingual learners, and the power of belonging. Drawing from his own journey as a refugee and educator, Dr. Aljaffery challenges common misconceptions and invites educators to move beyond trauma-centered narratives toward asset-based approaches that recognize resilience, brilliance, language, culture, and humanity. Together, Roberto and Dr. Aljaffery explore: • What makes students from refugee backgrounds feel invisible in schools • How deficit thinking harms students and limits possibilities • Why multilingualism should be viewed as an asset, not a problem • The difference between supporting students and “fixing” them • How current global conflicts and immigration debates impact students in classrooms today • Practical ways educators can foster belonging and dignity • What gives Dr. Aljaffery hope for the future This conversation is a reminder that refugee students do not need pity. They need opportunity, affirmation, and educators willing to see their full humanity. Connect with Us Teach in Truth. Lead with Courage. Belong to a Community That Gets It.

There are important parallels between the covenant in our relationship with the Lord as believers, and the marriage covenant. In both cases, lack of commitment and infidelity will severely damage the health of the relationship. So it is vital that we are unwavering in the exclusivity of our love and devotion in both, while holding a holy jealousy that nothing will steal our heart away.

"The technical skills only take you so far. The durable skills are what allow you to really excel, allow people who know how to do things to become leaders or managers of other people who do those things, maybe, down the road. We all know people who know how to do things, but don't ascend to helping others do things or leading others who do things. And that's because the deficits may be in durable skills more than anything else."AI isn't replacing human potential.It's exposing what actually makes humans valuable.In this episode of the Personalization Outbreak Podcast, John Woods—Chief Academic Officer at the University of Phoenix—joins Glenn Llopis to explain:

In Part 1 of this two part conversation, Scott Snider sits down with Renee Russo to explore one of the most critical, yet often overlooked, elements of value creation. Vision. Renee breaks down why vision is not just a leadership exercise, but a strategic driver of focus, alignment, and long term enterprise value. From defining a clear ten year direction to building a practical three year picture, she explains how vision creates clarity for teams, drives better decision making, and ultimately shapes a company that is transferable and valuable. The conversation goes deeper into how vision connects to ownership mindset, employee engagement, and even succession planning. Renee challenges traditional thinking by emphasizing that vision must align not only with the business, but with the personal and financial goals of the owner. When done right, it creates a unified path forward that benefits the team, the buyer, and the long term sustainability of the company. This episode sets the foundation for understanding how great businesses are built with intention, alignment, and a clear picture of the future. ============================================ Hear how Exit Planning Institute talks about Vision: https://exit-planning-institute.org/the-annual-exit https://blog.exit-planning-institute.org/employee-engagement-value-driver Hear more from Renee Russo: https://www.linkedin.com/in/renee-russo-riseupbc/ https://exit-planning-institute.org/mastering-the-market ============================================ Want to learn more?

As electricity demand rises and renewable generation continues to expand, the same question keeps arising: how do we keep power systems reliable, affordable and resilient? This week, Michael Liebreich is joined by Håkan Agnevall, CEO of Wärtsilä, to discuss the changing role of flexible generation in modern electricity systems, the growing importance of grid stability, and why balancing technologies will be critical as renewables become an ever-larger share of the global energy mix. They explore how rapidly growing electricity demand, including from data centres, is reshaping investment decisions, why flexible gas generation may play an important transitional role, and how batteries, renewables and thermal assets can work together to build a more resilient power system. The conversation also examines the future of shipping decarbonisation following delays to the International Maritime Organisation's proposed global carbon-pricing mechanism, the importance of fuel flexibility for vessel owners, and how digital technologies and AI are improving efficiency across industry. Håkan and Michael cover a wide variety of topics, including: Why flexible generation remains essential in renewable-heavy grids How growing electricity demand is changing energy infrastructure planning The role of gas engines, batteries and storage in maintaining grid stability What data centres mean for future power systems Shipping decarbonisation and the IMO's delayed carbon-pricing vote Fuel flexibility and efficiency in maritime transport How industrial companies are using AI to improve performance and reliability Energy security, competitiveness and the changing geopolitical landscape Leadership Circle: Cleaning Up is proud to be supported by its Leadership Circle.

Show Notes Pediatric vital signs are more than numbers on a monitor — they are part of a larger clinical picture that includes development, physiology, behavior, medical complexity and careful observation. In this episode of Acute Conversations, host Dr. Leo Arguelles is joined by Ashley Parish, PT, DPT, PhD, CRT, CCS, and Dawn Drumm, PT, DHSc, two contributors to the new Pediatric Vital Signs Guide. Together, they discuss how the resource came to life, why collaboration across APTA Acute Care, the Academy of Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Physical Therapy, and pediatric clinicians was essential, and how the guide can support therapists across settings. Ashley and Dawn share the challenges of building a practical document from variable pediatric references, the importance of using the guide alongside clinical reasoning, and why pediatric knowledge matters even for therapists who primarily treat adults. From infants in the NICU to adults living with congenital conditions, this episode highlights the need to think across the lifespan. Today's Guests: Dawn Drumm PT, DHSc ddrumm@luriechildrens.org https://www.linkedin.com/in/dawn-drumm-b141b455/ IG: drummdawn Ashley Parish PT, DPT, PhD, CRT, CCS ashbrown@uab.edu https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashley-parish-pt-dpt-phd-crt-ccs-b98b60273/ IG: ashleyparish_pt Guest Quotes: 18:31 Ashley “ What we came up with originally, and Dawn will probably laugh, it’s a massive- massive document. It was a textbook. And we were like- … “Yeah, we gotta shave this down and make it like a guide people can actually use in clinic practice.” 21:05 Dawn “First look at the document, it’s a great overview of just the lifespan within a pediatric lens. And so honing in on those first few areas of content, it just gives you kind of basics. Heart rate through the lifespan, your, respiratory rate… I think that beginning section is really important to highlight so that way you’re getting your foundational guidance that way.” 28:51 Ashley “ If you specifically wanna go into acute care peds, sometimes it’s difficult to find a job because there aren’t as many pediatric hospitals as there are adult hospitals, so just hang in there if it’s really hard for you to get on at first. Get experience in acute care. That always looks really good if you go from an adult hospital to a pediatric hospital. But those jobs do open up, so just be patient if you can’t find one right out of school ’cause no one likes to leave pediatric acute care. It’s the best setting.” Rapid Responses: What's your favorite color scrubs to wear while you’re at work? Ashley “ Oh, since I’m a peds therapist, it’s always fun, bright colors. I would say Barney purple is my favorite set. Barney purple.” Dawn “ Okay. So sadly, we don’t actually have to wear scrubs at work. Oh, wow … and we don’t have a color. But I feel like physical therapy was always blue. We always were like- … blue at county, Going with my basic blue.” You know you’re an acute care therapist when… Ashley “You have a distain for purewicks.” Dawn “ You've have changed more diapers than you would probably like. Yes. So getting down- In both adult and pediatrics, right? Both. Oh, yes … you can’t get away without poop talk.” Links: Pediatric Vital Sign Interpretation in Acute Care Guide 2025 https://www.mdpi.com/2077-0383/13/24/7681/xml https://www.sralab.org/research/labs/max-nader-rto/projects/intervention-promote-motor-development-infants

What's keeping you from having consistent, repeatable success on the water? From fishing with the same sort of confidence you see guides approach it with, or anglers who've been fishing for decades. Is it really just time and honing a bunch of technical skills, like casting, or fly selection? That stuff helps. But the best anglers I know — the ones I say I wanna be like when I grow up — aren't necessarily the best casters, and NONE of them can tell you the latin name of every bug on the water. What they all have in common is simple — they're incredible at watching the water, and using what they see to inform how they tackle any given situation. More than anything, this is the skill that separates good from great anglers. Today on Untangled, I'll walk you through why this is so important, and how mastering the art of watching and waiting will make you a noticeably more successful angler.

A 57-year-old woman is enjoying retirement in the quiet Worcestershire countryside just days before Christmas 2009. After more than two decades of marriage, Melinda Palmer and her husband Jonathan have recently moved into an isolated detached house surrounded by fields and woodland in the tiny village of Wadborough. Friends and neighbours describe them as a devoted couple beginning a peaceful new chapter together. But on the evening of December 22nd, Jonathan Palmer dials 999 claiming he has returned home to find his wife brutally murdered at the bottom of the stairs after an apparent burglary gone wrong.Police arriving at Windy Ridge discover a disturbing scene. Drawers and cupboards have been pulled open, blood stains are in the hallway, and Melinda has suffered catastrophic head injuries. Yet almost immediately, detectives begin to suspect something is very wrong with Jonathan's story. Valuable jewellery has been left untouched, forensic evidence suggests the scene has been staged, and investigators soon uncover a secret life hidden behind the image of a loving husband.In this episode of British Murders with Stuart Blues, we examine the murder of Melinda Palmer and the web of lies that unravelled after her death. From Melinda's successful career with British Gas and the couple's move to rural Worcestershire, to Jonathan's secret mobile phone, online affairs, fake identities, and bizarre double life, this is a case built on deception, betrayal and greed. We explore the police investigation, the forensic evidence that pointed towards Jonathan, the staged burglary theory, the suspicious motorway journey made after the killing, and the chilling behaviour of a man attempting to pose as a grieving husband while covering his tracks.We also break down the 2010 murder trial at Worcester Crown Court, where prosecutors alleged Melinda discovered her husband's affairs shortly before he launched a violent attack that left her dead inside the home they had planned to grow old together in. From bloodstained fingerprints and missing clothing, to secret text messages, hidden relationships and the devastating impact on Melinda's family, this is a heartbreaking true crime story about a woman murdered by the person she trusted most, and the lies that finally caught up with him.Exclusive content:Patreon - Ad Free, Early Access, Exclusive EpisodesFollow the show:British Murders with Stuart BluesDisclaimer:The case discussed in this podcast episode is real and represents the worst day in many people's lives.

View the Show Notes Page for This Episode Become a Member to Receive Exclusive Content Sign Up to Receive Peter's Weekly Newsletter In this episode, Peter explores the complex and often misunderstood world of genetic testing, building a practical framework for understanding what these tests can and cannot actually tell us about health and disease. He explains why some genetic findings can be genuinely life-changing while many others offer information that is far more probabilistic than deterministic, and why directly measuring the phenotype is often more valuable than inferring risk from DNA alone. Peter examines where genetics can provide meaningful insight across the major disease categories and where its predictive power is far more limited than many people assume. He also discusses how to think critically about different types of genetic tests, how to interpret results in the proper context, and how to avoid the common trap of accumulating more genetic information without gaining greater clarity or actionable insight. We discuss: Genetic testing: understanding what it can reveal, where it falls short, and how to think about its clinical value [1:45]; The Human Genome Project: why decoding DNA did not immediately unlock the mysteries of disease [4:15]; The limitations of genetic testing: probabilistic risk, interpretive uncertainty, and the importance of phenotype [9:30]; Questions to ask when considering genetic testing [15:45]; Genetic testing in cardiovascular and metabolic disease: when genotype adds value beyond phenotype [17:00]; Genetic testing for inherited cardiac conditions: identifying hidden risk beyond routine screening [21:45]; Genetic testing for cancer risk: inherited syndromes, clinical utility, and the limits of consumer testing [24:00]; Genetic testing for neurodegenerative disease: risk prediction, planning, and the challenge of limited actionability [28:45]; Functional medicine genetic testing: the gap between biological plausibility and clinical evidence, and the supplement protocols that aren't supported by evidence [32:45]; Pharmacogenetics: using genetic testing to guide medication selection and safety [38:45]; A framework for evaluating genetic tests according to effect size and clinical actionability [41:45]; The major types of genetic tests, and how each should be matched to the clinical question being asked [43:30]; Interpreting genetic test results: choosing the right testing laboratory and understanding what the findings actually mean [49:45]; Framework summary: why genetic testing is most valuable when it is guided by a clear question, matched with the appropriate test, and capable of meaningfully influencing decisions [56:45]; and More.
