This is a preview of a premium episode. Visit our Substack to get access to the full episode: https://designbetterpodcast.com/p/cassie-mcdaniel Cassie McDaniel, Medium's head of design, is someone with a clear vision for how a design team should work. She believes team members should have a breadth of skills, craft should be the foundation of product design, and experimentation is important in both work and workflow. To that end, Cassie and the leadership team at Medium recently made what some might see as a controversial decision: They eliminated product management. The result? They are moving faster than ever. We chat with Cassie about what led to this decision—and why it might not work for all teams, how she thinks about balancing Medium's legacy of thoughtful design while moving the product forward, and how writing can help you advance your design career. Bio Cassie McDaniel brings nearly 20 years of design leadership across agencies, her own studio, nonprofits, and high-growth startups. Currently the Head of Design at Medium, in her previous role as Product Design Director at Lattice, she led Insights & Analytics and Engagement, partnering with cross-functional teams to deliver humane, impactful digital experiences that drive business results. Cassie excels at building and mentoring teams, championing customer-centric culture, and solving complex problems at scale. She combines curiosity, empathy, and kindness with a relentless focus on execution—especially on mission-driven initiatives in creativity, environmental advocacy, and ethical product design. *** This is a premium episode on Design Better.

“Hollywood is about as left and progressive a community as there is in this country. And unfortunately, part of the box you have to check in that very left, super progressive space is being anti-Israel and being pro-Palestine in an anti-Israel way,” says Jonah Platt.Platt is a jack of all trades in the entertainment industry—an actor, director, producer, and singer. In the aftermath of the Oct. 7, 2023, massacre of Israelis led by terrorist group Hamas, he launched the podcast “Being Jewish.”He recently visited Auschwitz, the largest German death camp, alongside over a dozen Muslims. He went with the organization Sharaka, which builds on the work of the Abraham Accords and educates Middle Easterners and other Arabs and Muslims around the world about the Holocaust.“Some of these people came on this trip at great personal risk. If you're coming from Pakistan to hang out with Jews in the middle of this Israel-Gaza war, I mean, you could be in real, physical danger. Some people—they couldn't be in any photos and their identities had to be kept secret to protect them,” says Platt. “There were Jewish slaves [at Auschwitz], working out in that kind of rain in threadbare pajamas, starving to death, and having to do physical labor and be shot if they didn't keep up. And meanwhile, I'm freezing in the cold, but I get to go on a warm bus and get a hot meal after this.”In this episode, we discuss how to navigate being Jewish and Zionist in a society that is becoming increasingly hostile to Israel.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.***Disclaimer: One of the producers for American Thought Leaders participated in the Sharaka program to Poland on an all-expenses paid trip.

This is a rebroadcast. The episode originally ran in August 2021. Jenny Reeder is a historian and writer, currently the nineteenth-century women's history specialist at the Church History Department in the publications division, and was one of the first historians hired to specialize in women's history. She holds a PhD in American history from George Mason University, specializing in women's history, religious history, memory, and material culture. She also holds degrees from Brigham Young University, Arizona State University, and New York University. Jenny served a mission in Italy and has served three times as a ward Relief Society president, including when she was in graduate school and fighting leukemia. Jenny has collaborated on several books about Latter-day Saint women's history and is the author of First: The Life and Faith of Emma Smith.

Her goal was to write about her as a pillar of the Restoration and a significant founder of the Church with Joseph, and to make her a real woman and show how complicated her life was, her commitment, and her heartbreak. 5:20 So many members of the Church have been influenced to believe she was a fallen person because she did not come west with the other pioneers, but she retained her testimony and hers is a story of redemption. 7:45 Jenny's experience with cancer while serving as a Relief Society president during her time in graduate school at George Mason Participating in ward council from her hospital bed Visiting with less-active people and learning to receive service Sending emails and physical cards to people as she was prompted Finding her purpose outside of "not dying" 15:15 Serving is an opportunity to learn, serve, and receive revelation in way you haven't before, and this can be a blessing in a difficult time. 19:00 The goals of RS were to provide relief and save souls. She found relief for herself as she provided relief to others, and came to understand the Atonement on a deeper level. 21:00 Developing relationships that continue: maintaining relationships from her old ward has been powerful for everyone as they have rallied together to support each other through difficult times. 23:00 The Church was never really organized until the Relief Society was organized. Having women involved is significant and they have Priesthood authority in their stewardship. The most beneficial experience is when they are recognized for that leadership and allowed to do what they can. 27:00 Emma's instructions in Doctrine and Covenants Section 25 Emma struggled with her role to teach and had to learn how to lead In Nauvoo Relief Society, you had to apply for membership. It was a step toward being able to participate in temple ordinances. Emma's role in creating the hymnbook, and being the first woman to receive her endowment She was called to be a support for Joseph: significance of the words "comfort" and "office", and of leaving her family to go with him and to stay with him 36:50 The Relief Society was told to create offices to expand what they needed 39:00 Speaking up to have your voice heard: It was not normal for women to speak publicly in the 19th century, and even now women can be unaccustomed to speaking and leading Eliza R.

Vision | From Visiting to Abiding by Pastor Dan DeBell

Sunday, 18 May 2025   “Now whatever city or town you enter, inquire who in it is worthy, and stay there till you go out. Matthew 10:11   “And into what city or village you shall enter, you inquire who in her, he is worthy. And there you remain until if you shall depart.” (CG).   In the previous verse, Jesus continued His instructions to the twelve about what they should not take with them, noting that the toiler is worthy of his food. Next, He continues, saying, “And into what city or village you shall enter, you inquire who in her, he is worthy.”   In the Bible, both in Hebrew and Greek, cities and villages are feminine entities. As such, some translations faithfully translate the Hebrew in this manner. It is generally not so in the New Testament, but the thinking would have been this way among Jesus and the apostles. In both testaments, even until Revelation, this thought continues –   “The virgin, the daughter of Zion, Has despised you, laughed you to scorn; The daughter of Jerusalem Has shaken her head behind your back!” Isaiah 37:22 &   “And the woman whom you saw is that great city which reigns over the kings of the earth.” Revelation 17:18   This same thought carries on in modern English in various ways, such as when referring to a sweet car by saying, “She is a beauty,” or speaking of a majestic ship, saying, “She is set to sail the seven seas.”   As for Jesus' words concerning being worthy, the hospitality of the Middle East was to welcome strangers into one's home. This even extended to enemies. When someone was in the home, a set of cultural rules would be adhered to by both parties. The apostles would be there to preach and teach, but the homeowner may say, “Please do not do that in or from this house.”   It is his house, and they are his rules. The apostles would be under no obligation to stay in such a house. It would be an insult to come to a village to preach and then be asked not to do so. Because of this, they would decline the invitation and seek another home to use as a base with an owner more favorable to their mission. Of such an abode, Jesus next says, “And there you remain until if you shall depart.”   Here is a new word, menó. Strong's says, “A primary verb; to stay (in a given place, state, relation or expectancy) -- abide, continue, dwell, endure, be present, remain...” The agreement would be mutual, and it would allow the apostles to have a base until they had evangelized the whole town.   It would also make it convenient for those who wished to talk to know where to find them. Jesus will continue to explain this type of arrangement for the next few verses. Though it is something rather foreign to us today, this was a common and expected situation at the time.   Life application: As noted, it is less common today for people to arbitrarily open their doors to strangers, but there are times when people can help out in similar matters. Visiting missionaries are usually on a tight budget. Some churches have houses set up for them to stay in. If not, there may be some kind soul in the church who is willing to take them in.   If neither is the case, the least the church could do is to ask for help getting a place to rent during their stay. Some churches will have a person who is aware of missionary needs and may arrange these things.   Try to be inventive in how you can help in whatever way is possible to assist visitors or traveling missionaries. However, it is good to be circumspect as well. There are people who come into churches and ask for help, including money for a supposed need. They, however, often just go from church to church, ripping them off in this manner.   The best plan for such things is to have a policy where the church and the congregants do not give out cash. Until a person is known, it is unwise to hand money to someone just because they claim they have a need.   Wisdom in how to handle people usually comes through learning. Unfortunately, learning when not to give means there was a time when giving was taken advantage of. It is good to help, but getting ripped off by deceivers is as common as car wheels turning on a busy highway.   Lord God, help Your people to use wisdom and discernment when helping out those who say they have a need. Quite often, it is later discovered that the only need they had was to avoid working, and do so at other people's expense. May we be cheerful to help others, but wise in how we do so. Amen.

Part 3 - "Wake Up! The Bandits Are Coming!"At the end of March this year, officers from the Kenyan-led Multinational Security Support Mission (MSS) responded to a request for assistance when an armoured Haitian National Police vehicle became stuck in a ditch near Pont-Sondé in Artibonite. The ditch was believed to have been dug by a local gang.As the MSS officers arrived to help, they were ambushed by armed men, allegedly from the Gran Grif gang. During the firefight, three armoured vehicles were set on fire, and one MSS officer went missing, presumed killed. This incident marked the second casualty for the Kenyans in about a month.The MSS was deployed to Haiti to help stabilize the security situation and combat the growing power of gangs. Unfortunately, since their arrival, the MSS has faced the same challenges as the Haitian National Police: a lack of manpower, inadequate equipment, and insufficient funding. The gangs continue to maintain the upper hand.Meanwhile, the humanitarian situation in Haiti continues to deteriorate.In the final part of this series on Haiti, we will explore the challenges facing the Haitian National Police, the fall of beleaguered Prime Minister Ariel Henry, the rising confidence of the Viv Ansanm gang, the arrival and difficulties encountered by MSS officers, and the escalating humanitarian disaster in the country.SpeakersJacqueline Charles, Haiti/Caribbean Correspondent, Miami Herald.

Family business succession is not just about changing the leadership; it's a delicate balancing act between maintaining the legacy and embracing innovation. Both founders and successors face the challenges of navigating deep personal attachments, generational differences, and the emotional weight of letting go and stepping up. A genuine succession requires more than a solid plan: it demands trust, humility, and the discipline to lead by example.  Joining us today is Dimitri Sidiropoulos. Dimitri is a son, husband, father of three, and a second-generation leader in the construction industry. At Delphi, a company specializing in heavy mechanical infrastructure work, Dimitri plays a key role in leading the team to continue building on a legacy of quality and innovation. Dimitri's primary focus is on team building, business development, and cultivating a strong company culture. Dedicated to creating an environment where collaboration, continuous growth, and mutual respect are prioritized, Dimitri works to ensure that every team member has the resources and support needed to succeed. Throughout the conversation, Dimitri and I discussed the following topics about the strategic art of family business succession: myths of a family business, maintaining high standards, creating space for further employee advancements, expecting and handling conflict in a family business, succession planning: legacy vs. innovation, the shift from doing to leading, leading by example, and the importance of maintaining open communication with employees.  HIGHLIGHTS [02:01] Myths of family business.  [06:29] The importance of maintaining high standards.  [14:05] Building long-term client relationships with personal connections.  [16:07] Handling conflicts in a family business.  [21:28] Succession Planning: Leading with curiosity and trust.  [30:20] Dimitri's succession plan and the development of future leaders.  [38:59] Leading by example and personal growth.  [41:32] Visiting job sites and maintaining an open communication with employees.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Build a growth culture, not just a growth plan.  Go beyond the contract. Position your team as problem-solvers and collaborators.  Expect conflict. Step back when needed, cool down, and revisit the conversation later. Respect experience. Learn the lesson before you dismiss them.  Expect the discomforts in transition and embrace them as parts of growth.    RESOURCES Connect with Dimitri Sidiropoulos LinkedIn – https://linkedin.com/in/dimitri-sidiropoulos-b4485190/                      https://linkedin.com/company/delphiph/  Website Copy - https://delphiph.com/      90-Day High-Performance Dashboard You can't afford to let your people drift.

Dr. Brian Miller, the developer of the CE-CERT model, and Karen Hangartner, Director of Professional Services with the National Children's Advocacy Center, share their insights on how this concept is influencing the CAC community.

Today, Christina Rouse engages with experts Dr. Brian Miller, developer of the CE-CERT (Components for Enhancing Career Wellbeing and Reducing Trauma) model, and Karen Hangartner, Director of Professional Services at the National Children's Advocacy Center. Together, they explore how the narratives professionals create about their work can either sustain or hinder their passion and commitment over time. They emphasize how the conscious narrative skill, one of the five domains of the CE-CERT model, helps professionals stay connected to their purpose and avoid burnout despite the challenges of working in high-trauma environments.  Through personal reflections and research, the episode encourages CAC professionals to embrace their work by finding joy in even the difficult moments, using tools like conscious narrative practices to frame their experiences positively. It discusses how supportive supervision and organizational culture play crucial roles in helping individuals maintain career-sustaining narratives, which ultimately foster resilience. By practicing self-reflection and mindful narratives, professionals can better serve their communities while finding fulfillment and longevity in their careers.
