In this solo reflection episode, she weaves together two very different vacation rental experiences, a hospitality revelation on a delayed Virgin Atlantic flight, and the core teaching from her conference session to land on a single, unifying idea: purpose comes before polish, and foundation comes before execution. The episode moves from a functional but story-free farm conversion cottage, to a 300-year-old Hastings cottage that felt like it had been created specifically for her friends, to a conference room full of STR operators at every stage of their AI journey. The thread connecting all of it: knowing who you are, who you serve, and what you stand for before you pick up a single tool - whether that tool is a £200 kettle, a booking platform, or an AI assistant. Heather also walks through the core framework from her "Building Your AI Business Brain" session, giving listeners a practical, actionable foundation they can start building this week. Key Takeaways A pilot who told his delayed passengers "I am the host of this flight and you are my guests" changed the atmosphere of an entire departure lounge with one sentence. Purpose, clearly stated, changes everything. The difference between the two cottages wasn't price or quality - it was whether the owner knew exactly who they were creating the experience for. One was built for a specific person; the other was built for anyone passing through. Before you touch a single AI tool, you need five foundational pieces in place: your vision, your mission and values, your business profile (including avatars, brand voice, and workflows). Without these, AI will produce generic output for a generic audience. The fastest way to capture your brand voice isn't to write it - it's to talk it through using voice-to-text. Most people think out loud more naturally than they write, and the result is closer to your real voice. At the Scale AI Summit, fewer than half the room had a documented client or owner avatar - which means their AI has no idea who it's writing for. If it's not documented, it doesn't exist as far as your AI is concerned. Strategy before execution, every time. Paul Anderson's RAF officer training insight maps directly to AI adoption: the operators who slow down to build a foundation first are the ones who get useful, consistent results. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

She grew up in Agra, studied computer science and AI at Columbia, landed on an asset-backed mortgage securities trading floor in New York, moved to London, spent six years in finance, had a full-blown existential crisis, quit to build a startup, stumbled into the vacation rental industry almost by accident, had a baby, got lost down an AI rabbit hole, nearly derailed her marriage, and is now running two businesses while teaching women worldwide how to use AI to earn more and work less. And it seems like all that happened without her taking a breath! Yhangry is a private chef booking platform she co-founded in the UK. It started as a consumer product for anyone who wanted a chef to cook at home. Then Siddhi discovered that 50% of her users were vacation rental guests and property managers, and everything changed. Yhangry is now one of the most interesting upsell opportunities in the STR space: property managers can generate a simple affiliate link, share it with guests, and earn commission whenever a chef is booked. No operational overhead. No coordination. The platform handles everything from booking to payment to quality assurance. The conversation covers all of that, and then it goes somewhere else entirely. Because Siddhi is also the founder of SheCompoundsAI, a live AI education event series focused on helping women build practical AI skills. She brings the same direct, jargon-free energy she uses on stage to this conversation, and what comes out is one of the most accessible explanations of prompting, agents, and reverse prompting I have heard anywhere. If you have been hovering at the edge of AI adoption and not quite sure how to get started, this episode gives you the simplest possible on-ramp. And if you are a property manager looking for a genuinely low-effort upsell revenue stream, the Yhangry conversation is worth your attention. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Rather than sidestepping the number, Heather uses it as a frame for something worth naming: the very human patterns that undermine AI adoption in short-term rental businesses. Drawing on her own experience, conversations with property managers, and the collected wisdom of fifty experienced operators featured in Brooke Pfautz's book Vacation Rental Secrets, she maps seven recognisable failure modes onto the classical seven deadly sins. These are not abstract warnings. They are patterns that show up with remarkable consistency across different markets, business sizes, and experience levels. Heather has lived several of them herself. And because they are patterns, they can be recognised, named, and redirected. That is the point of the episode: awareness is the first step toward a different choice. If you have been accumulating AI tools without connecting them, automating your guest communications without thinking about what that does to the relationship, or chasing the latest model release without going deep into the one you already have, this episode is for you. And if you recognise yourself in any of the seven sins, Heather's message is not judgment. It is: now you can make a different choice. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

This episode features a conversation with Dacia VanAlstine, Project Director of the Evolve Employment Model demonstration project at Minnesota Blind. What began as a brainstorming conversation at a national conference evolved into an innovative Disability Innovation Fund (DIF) project focused on improving employment outcomes, retention, and participant engagement for individuals who are blind, low vision, or facing employment barriers. Dacia shares how the Evolve Employment Model is challenging traditional approaches to vocational rehabilitation through progressive employment strategies, benefits planning, workplace exposure opportunities, and faster, more responsive service delivery designed to keep participants connected and moving forward. The episode also explores the realities of building new models in real time — recognizing staff strengths, embracing flexibility, fostering collaboration, and "building the ship while sailing it." A thoughtful conversation on leadership, creativity, workforce development, and the future of vocational rehabilitation. Listen Here Full Transcript: {Music} Dacia: When we did our brainstorming, we looked at where could we improve and not just improve the customer experience, but the way that the staff do their work. Carol: How has your experience been working with your RSA project officer, and what's that partnership look like? Dacia: Cassandra is amazing. Doctor Deandra too. They are an amazing team. They are very real, which I so appreciate and so responsive and just, they answer the dumbest questions that I have and don't make me feel dumb. So I love it. Intro voice: Manager minute, brought to you by the Vocational Rehabilitation Technical Assistance Center. Conversations powered by VR. One manager at a time, one minute at a time. Here is your host, Carol Pankow. Carol: Welcome to the Manager Minute. Joining me in the studio today is Dacia VanAlstine, project director for the Evolve Employment Model demonstration at Minnesota Blind. And today we're going to dive into innovation, leadership and what it really looks like to take an idea and bring it to life in VR. And I have to say, this one is a little special for me. I had the good fortune to work with Dacia during my time at State Services for the Blind. And one thing that always stood out as her ability to take a concept, sometimes just an idea and turn it into something real, something actionable, and something that makes a difference. So, Dacia, how are things going? Dacia: Thank you for that, Carol. Things are going well. We're moving right along with this project. We are making some great strides, so it is fun to be here today. Carol: Excellent. So before we jump into the project itself, I'd like to start with your story. Can you tell our listeners a little bit about your background and how you found your way into vocational rehabilitation? Dacia: I think like a lot of people, I just kind of fell into it. I started when I was younger working in group homes, and that moved into becoming a program coordinator for group homes, which then moved into the day programming side of things at a, DT&H, which then turned into working with their supported employment license and then finding employers and jobs for people that were actually connected to the VR programs. So then I became interested in VR and started working for State Services for the Blind back in 2008 as a Vocational Rehab Technician. And then with my background, ended up getting some ARRA funding and I moved into employment services and have been working with the Dual Customers ever since. Carol: Wow. I did not know you kind of followed my same path because I did the whole group home work too, and DT&H and the whole shebang. That's pretty cool, I love it. So I know this project did not appear out of nowhere. It really grew organically. Can you talk a little bit about how the idea for Evolve Employment first came about and how it took shape? Dacia: It's kind of funny. A few of us had gone to CSAVR in the spring of 2024, and they had announced the DIF grants that they were going to be doing. It was Natasha Jerde, who's our executive director, and then Jon Benson, our deputy director, myself. We had our quality assurance person, Ashlyn Cahill there, and our fiscal person, Gabby Garcia. And then we had a counselor, Jason Dornbush, and we were all sitting in the back row. And it started with one little, hey, what if we applied for this? What could we do? There's so many different things we could do. And it turned into this whole thing and it just exploded from there. I don't even remember the session that was going on at the time, because we were in the back just brainstorming. It turned into this huge idea spark, and one person fed off the other person and then it just blew into this thing. Carol: I love when that happens. That is super fun. Now, the speaker up front was probably annoyed with you all, but I love when that, you know, you get that idea. In fact, you know, Jeff and I, back in the day, we were at a CSAVR conference and he's like going out trying to do a little interviews with somebody. After that session, I'm like, what are you doing? I'm going to do a podcast. This was way back in the day and I'm like, what's a podcast? And look at now the whole world is podcasting, but it cracked me up. I mean, we started that 11 years ago. Super fun. Dacia: Jeff's been podcasting ever since we went to an NFB conference and sat by the pool and Podcasted. Carol: I know it is super hilarious. It's like those organic kind of ideas really can bloom into something pretty cool. So at a high level, what is the Evolve Employment model and how do you think about the key components or buckets of the project? Dacia: Well, when we did our brainstorming, we looked at where could we improve and not just improve the customer experience, but the way that the staff do their work. The DIF grant allows us to really be in, it's in the title innovative. It allows us to try things. Really the idea is to try different tactics, different strategies, different approaches to things in the VR program that improves outcomes, improves experiences for staff, improves experiences for participants, and really leans into that dual customer approach to delivering services. Carol: Pretty cool, I love that. So what about the buckets in this project? I know there were different kind of fingers that you were looking into doing a lot of different things. Dacia: Well, a couple of the things that we're doing is job retention. We know that it's so much better if somebody can keep a job, it's better for the employer, it's better for the person, it's better for just everyone. So really looking at retention, also looking at how can we use workplace activities in order to help individuals that have limited experience in the workplace, limited experience with work in general, just the idea of work, you know, they may be somebody that's newer to work, maybe somebody that just hasn't worked in a long time, but just giving them some workplace activities under progressive employment. So looking at job shadows, tours, and it's something that VR does anyways, but this is done more intentionally and a little more structured to see if this makes a difference in people's lives, if people will choose better outcomes, because now they're being exposed to different types of careers than they would be normally. And so we have that progressive employment also looking at how can we speed things up for people, not speed things up to where we're rushing people through the process, but speed things up in a way that helps people stay engaged. We know looking at the data, that the longer it takes for somebody to get into a plan to get any services implemented, the more likely they are to drop off. And so looking at how can we make this faster for people, but in a meaningful way. And then looking at other aspects of where in the VR program we might be falling short, and that would be, besides the retention, looking at the training aspect of things, especially in the customer service and technology sectors. So looking at how can we get people into technology based customer service roles and building possibly a training program ourselves that can be passed down to the general program and using the training that already exists for individuals. And we're not looking at degree programs, we're looking at certificate programs, short term training, things that can help people get into a career faster. Not everybody has the luxury of taking a step back. Some people have to provide for their families. Some people just really don't want to go down that path. They want to get into a career as quickly as possible. So how can we lean into that training? Carol: That sounds awesome. I'm excited about this. I know when you and I had spoken before, you talked about this being like, you're kind of building the ship as you're sailing it. What does that look like during this first phase of implementation? Dacia: Well, in the beginning, we had picked up a bunch of staff from the General Vocational Rehabilitation, VRS, when they unfortunately had to have some layoffs. So we were able to grab some of their talent. And when we put together the position descriptions we put together, you know, what we thought we needed. And then as we started hiring them and then more staff, we realized that these staff had amazing talent. Besides what was just what was needed for this grant. So we were able to look at where does their talent lie and how can we help not only advance our project, but set our staff up because this is a short term project, so how can we set them up for their careers after they're done? And so looking at is their leadership ability there? How can we help them lead projects? Is there training opportunities? Are there other things that they can bring? Are there ways to expand this a little bit. You know, one of the things that we decided to do was job retention. The initial intention of that was how can we keep people into positions that they want to stay in? It's working for the employer, but all of a sudden it's not working because the disability changed or the disability appeared. We have Callie our Retention Specialist, who comes with a whole lot of experience and knowledge in working with the Dual Customer, and she's really working hard to build out our retention program. I should actually mention that in this, we have four targeted audiences that people would need to fall into to be eligible. One is they are at risk of losing a job. Another is they are unemployed for 27 or more weeks. Another is at risk of losing a job, unemployed for 27 weeks or more. A new American with a legal right to work. And the fourth one is somebody who acquired their vision loss during their working years. So if somebody falls into those categories, they're eligible for our program. We are doing a Functional model for disability versus a medical model. So with that, we have been able to capture numerous individuals that would normally not qualify for our general program because of the medical model. And so we were able to take people that had nowhere else to go and were going to lose their job. And we've been able to save over half a dozen, probably close to a dozen jobs now for people that would normally not qualify for services. Carol: That's really cool. So what do you think are 1 or 2 innovations within the model that you think are really making the biggest difference so far? Dacia: We knew that retention was important and that it should be done intentionally, and we knew that we didn't have a solid retention program procedure process in the general SSB program. So we started looking at how can we really make this difference? And we actually expanded it not just for people at risk of losing their job, but one of the things that we're doing is for the VR program, expanding on that stabilization period. So those individuals that get their job and they're employed for 90 days, and then they make the couple contacts with the counselor and really close to that 90 days, they quit their job, they maybe get scared of losing benefits. Something happens with the employer and they just haven't really made contact with their counselor. So what we're doing is that we're doing stabilization services. So a counselor can refer somebody in those 90 days, and that Career Navigator becomes somebody that they can connect with. They are the coordinator of all the services. They are able to work with the employer. They are able to, if they're county services involved, pull those in, they are able to pull other resources in. And all of our Career Navigators have all the way to level three benefits planning training so they can look up benefits for people. Which is something that we've never done before, really embedded benefits into everything we're doing. So it helps individuals. They have this person that they can go to, they can ask questions about their benefits. It's just a really a wraparound service. And then after their 90 days, the intent is to allow them to continue to be able to contact that person for the next year. If something comes up, we can get back into services with them right away if we need to. We don't have to open up a new sequence with them. They can just jump in and do stuff. So that's one of the really cool things that we're doing, and we're finding a lot of need for that way more than we even thought. We knew that retention was a huge thing. And looking at our really ambitious numbers that we said we would do, we're going to have no issues at all hitting that because it's turned into a huge thing. I should also mention, one of the other buckets that we're doing is benefits planning. So we have a Benefits Navigator that's able to look up benefits, that's able to do all kinds of things. We even had a situation that somebody, due to a clerical error, had gotten a letter that they owed tens of thousands of dollars in back Social Security, and they were going to quit their job. And there were all these things that were going to happen. And because of the Benefits Navigator is at the top level for benefits planning and has all the credentials to be able to do the work and all the training to do the work, they were able to find the clerical error and that is now being reversed. Carol: That's amazing. Dacia: Because of the work that she did with this individual and us having that, that person now can breathe. Carol: I like that, you know, I was thinking back in the day, we used to have Meredith. She was our benefits person. You know, we had the one person I remember customers talking to me. They were so worried about really staying employed because worried about losing benefits, you know, the whole thing and how to counsel through that. And I think you guys having this embedded in kind of every aspect and allowing that to continue on for the people the year after is really important. It just gives that sense of stability that someone to talk to when you're navigating this crazy, you know, there are big systems with all of that. And to really help you gain that understanding. So you're feeling comfortable with the decisions you make and what you're doing is super important. Dacia: And that really feeds into when I had said, we created these job descriptions and what we thought this was going to be, we had created a position for a Benefits Navigator, okay, And the intent was that they would do benefits lookup and they would do the whole benefits analysis. And that's what their job would mainly be with some training. But looking at that person that was hired, Marcy really has a lot of talent and experience behind her. She worked for the hub. She's done all these different things. So looking at expanding what her talent is and helping her really guide what this looks like for our entire program. It's amazing. And then not just that, you know, the original intention wasn't that our Career Navigators were going to have benefits planning, training. But one of our Career Navigators that came from VRS had that. And so we were able to look at, oh my gosh, look at all these things that they can do. And because we have Marcy, our Career Navigators, Kayla and Alex and our new American career navigator, Alexis are able to work together. She's able to mentor them. She's able to help them get the training that they need. So it's really leaning into all these things that everybody brings with them, not just what we thought, what we needed, and sticking to that, just really being open to letting our staff use the talents they have. We didn't have any intention that Career Navigators were going to be training counselors or training community partners, and then we end up with Alex, who has tons of experience with this, Kayla who loves doing this, you know, so letting them do the things that they love to do and the things that they really have a lot of talent in. So that's really helped us in the implementation of this, really leaning into what they bring and what they want to do. Carol: I know you were talking a little bit about your numbers. You mentioned it like, we're going to be able to blow past that number. What are some of the goals that you have for numbers with this project. Dacia: Some of the numbers are very ambitious. Our number for how many job retentions that we get, I think is 270, which at first I thought, that's really ambitious and I don't know if we're going to do that. I honestly think that we're going to probably hit 270 by the end of year three. Carol: Wow. Dacia: Like it's that much. Especially when we added the stabilization. Carol: Yeah. Dacia: And helping those people retain their jobs. That number is going to be huge. We also our outreach to businesses, we are going to surpass that by quite a bit. I think that number is 500 businesses total. And I think we are a little over a year and a half in. And I think we're already at close to 200. Carol: Wow. Good. Dacia: We have an amazing outreach person that we're sharing him with our employer, Reasonable Accommodation Fund. But Ray is out there and he is making connection after connection. And then we have Alicia, who also came from VRS during the layoffs. And she is our business engagement and training specialist. So she is making the connections with the businesses, the relationships. So really we have this talent that's doing this stuff. And Alicia's out there developing relationships with external training programs. So we're going to easily hit that number. Carol: Very cool. It sounds like you've got quite the team. I love it. You've been able to bring in all these folks that have these other like talents you didn't even know about as they come on, and they've been able to contribute so much more than you even anticipated. Dacia: Even our admin and fiscal person, Morgan, we couldn't do this without just like she pulls everything together, she keeps us all on track. She makes sure that we're focusing on the things that we need to focus on. We are very fortunate. Carol: So I know you're operating under a DIF grant, which can really feel different from a traditional VR program. How has your experience been working with your RSA project officer, and what's that partnership look like? Dacia: I would like to say Cassandra is amazing. Even if I come to her with the world's, and very responsive to. Which is super impressive considering all that she does. And then Doctor Deandra too. They are an amazing team. They are very real, which I so appreciate and so responsive and just. They answer the dumbest questions that I have and don't make me feel dumb. So I love it. Carol: That is awesome. Yeah, they're good people. I know. I hear about Cassandra all the time and the amazing job that she does. This is exciting. Well, she has a fun job too because you're working with these DIF projects, you know, and getting to see all this really cool stuff, innovation happening across the country. So I know you're really early in the implementation. You said you're a year and a half in, but you've learned a lot. What do you think are some of the biggest lessons you've learned so far? Dacia: Well, for sure, one of the things that we have learned is making sure that you look at your talent and making sure that you help them grow, because that was not our original intention and looking at their talent, it really has helped us to be where we're at. Making sure that we're working with the general program, communication with the counselors and the general VR program is so important. Even more important than we thought, keeping that communication open. Also adjusting and readjusting kind of what we're doing, what we're saying. I know that we've been building this as we go, which makes it so some things are very ambiguous, which can be very difficult for people to work within, but really helping people get through that. And part of that is letting the staff use the strengths that they have, because that will help get through some of that building the ship as you go and that ambiguousness. Carol: Yeah, I know, it's always exciting. You go from the back of the room chit chatting about this idea, and you put it on paper and it gets accepted. But as you get rolling along, you know, things come up and things change and evolve a little bit. So I like that it goes along with your title of your project. I like that that's the organic, wonderful nature of these DIF grants, because things do evolve as you're going along, and you're allowed to then expand and kind of contract and grow and shape it as the things happen over time, which is very, very cool. Dacia: It absolutely is. And flexibility is really the key here too. We all know that when you put things on paper and you have the intention of things going one way, that's not necessarily how they're going to go. And so you really have to be open to shifting and adjusting. You know, there are things that I envisioned going one way and then all of a sudden with new information, it's like, you know what? We're going this way and it's okay. It's okay to adjust along the way. But you really have to be flexible in this and not looking at it like I am building this program to be exact and live forever. I am building this program to be flexible, to adjust, to be able to be sustainable, whether it's the whole thing or components of this, to be sustainable in SSB's VR program, or even any other VR program that wanted to try some of these, you know, the lessons that we learn along the way in this, whether good or bad, are all important. Carol: Very true, very true. And it'll be really fun. I know you guys are all getting together this summer in June and there's a DIF Project Officer conference, and so I'm sure you're going to be attending that. Dacia: Oh yeah, I'll be doing that. Yep. I'm excited. I love those kind of things because you really get to know other people and you know, you can learn from their struggles. They can learn from your struggles, you can learn from their innovations. They can learn from you, from yours. So I love those opportunities to connect and just have fun. Carol: Yeah, I think it'll be great. So for other VR leaders listening, what advice would you give if they're thinking about trying something new or applying for a demonstration project like this? Dacia: I would say don't over think it. Start with that small seed of an idea and bring other people into it to really brainstorm and get creative with it. Make sure that you're communicating often with VR. Even if you are not in VR program, VR is going to be a key partner regardless. Communicate often and be very transparent in the communication, I would say. Don't be afraid to make mistakes. I know that anytime I have a question, if I think that we might be, you know, okay, well, can we do this? Or what if we do this wrong? Don't be afraid of that. If you have a Cass, talk to Cassandra will help you through it. Or your version of Cassandra, that's what they're there for. One of the things that we had done was we had decided to change one of our areas that we were focusing on progressive employment based on new information. It was super easy. We said, hey, we decided to go in this area. That was a mistake. We don't have enough people there, but we do in this area. Can we do this? Absolutely. So don't be afraid to make some mistakes as long as you're not doing something illegal. Carol: Yeah, yeah, let's stay away from that. Dacia: Let's stay away from that. Make sure that you're, you know, following the law. But as far as the program goes, don't be afraid to adjust and make mistakes because that's what you're here for. You're here to innovate and you have to take some risk in order to get that reward. Carol: Well, Dacia, this has been such a great conversation. What you're building is not just a project. It's really a glimpse into the future of what VR could look like. So thanks for joining us today. Dacia: Well, thanks for having me. Carol: You bet. And to our listeners, if there's one takeaway, it's this innovation doesn't start with a perfect plan. It starts with the question and willingness to try. Thanks for listening to the manager minute.

« Les États-Unis sont proches d'un accord pour mettre fin à la guerre et rouvrir le détroit d'Ormuz », titre le Washington Post, selon lequel « les négociateurs sont parvenus à un accord pour mettre fin au conflit, mais celui-ci nécessite l'approbation du président Donald Trump et des dirigeants iraniens ». Autant dire que rien n'est fait, ou presque. Le Wall Street Journal se montre lui aussi prudent et affirme que les États-Unis et l'Iran ont peut-être « les prémices d'un accord », selon les termes utilisés par le secrétaire au Trésor, Scott Bessent. Si la trêve est conclue, ajoute le Wall Street Journal, « cette entente constituerait la première phase d'un accord en plusieurs volets », dont celui prévoyant « une limitation stricte du programme nucléaire iranien pour plusieurs décennies ». Le New York Times, de son côté, croit savoir que « le détroit d'Ormuz demeure un point de blocage majeur ». Le New York Times, sceptique sur la probabilité d'un accord proche, rappelle que le président américain n'est pas un modèle de stabilité. « Bombes, compromis et fanfaronnades : les revirements du président Trump concernant l'Iran semblent souvent dictés par son humeur et le contexte, plutôt que par une stratégie construite », accuse le quotidien américain.  Les femmes sur le champ de bataille ? En Ukraine, le recrutement éventuel de femmes pour aller se battre sur le front fait débat. « L'Ukraine fait face à une pénurie de soldats », constate El Pais, « une pénurie qui contraint des milliers d'hommes des forces armées ukrainiennes à passer des mois au combat, sans relève ni repos ».En Ukraine, « le recrutement des femmes pourrait-il être une solution ? », demande le quotidien espagnol. Le débat est ouvert, mais la question est vivement critiquée par certains Ukrainiens qui s'appuient sur la « tradition », comme l'explique le colonel Roman Kovalov. Ce commandant de bataillon estime ainsi : « Dans notre société traditionnelle, les femmes sont les gardiennes du foyer et éduquent les enfants. Les hommes sont les guerriers. L'idée de mobiliser les femmes serait perçue négativement par la société. » Mais d'autres défendent la conscription obligatoire des femmes. Dont certaines d'entre elles. Ainsi Yana Zalevska, commandante de drones, selon laquelle « la féminisation de l'armée est nécessaire au pays ». Une autre femme présente sur le front estime en revanche que « les personnes enrôlées de force manquent de motivation et ne font pas de bons soldats ». Jusqu'à présent, « seules les femmes militaires de carrière et les professionnelles de santé sont tenues de s'inscrire au recensement militaire », précise El Pais, mais certaines sont volontaires. « L'armée ukrainienne compte actuellement 7 % de femmes », nous dit le quotidien espagnol. À lire aussiUkraine: à cause des drones, il est périlleux de récupérer les corps de soldats morts au front Vaccin expérimental Aux États-Unis, deux familles afro-américaines portent plainte contre le gouvernement américain. C'est le journal Le Monde qui nous raconte cette histoire dont les origines remontent aux années soixante. Les plaignants, explique le quotidien français, sont « les familles de deux bébés afro-américains morts en 1967, après avoir reçu un vaccin expérimental contre le virus respiratoire syncytial (le VRS) à l'origine de la grande majorité des bronchiolites ».   Ces deux familles poursuivent le gouvernement américain, « en dommages et intérêts », explique encore Le Monde, « elles n'ont appris qu'après la mort de leurs enfants qu'ils "faisaient secrètement partie des sujets d'une expérimentation de vaccin contre le VRS en 65 et 66", à leur insu et sans leur consentement ». « Âgés de 2 et 4 mois, les deux enfants se sont vu administrer "une version ultraconcentrée" et par conséquent plus dangereuse d'un premier vaccin expérimental n'ayant pas donné de résultats contre le VRS, sans que leurs parents aient été avisés des risques encourus. » Les avocats des familles rappellent que cette histoire n'est pas sans en rappeler d'autres. « La recherche médicale aux États-Unis a une longue et inquiétante histoire raciale », disent-ils, rappelant notamment « que des centaines d'hommes noirs » ont été « utilisés comme cobayes » lors d'expériences sur la syphilis.

At the time, he described it as surreal and exciting. A year on, the headline has given way to the hard work: integrating systems, transitioning markets, reshaping a culture, and doing all of it while holding onto the belief that this is, at its core, a relationship business. In this conversation, Heather catches up with Steve to take stock of that year - what has worked, what has been harder than anticipated, and what the ongoing Casago-Vacasa integration has taught him about leadership at scale. They also get into AI: how Steve is approaching it inside a franchise organisation that spans everything from small, locally owned operations to private equity-backed enterprises, why he talks about making Casago bionic rather than robotic, and the very real challenge of bringing people along when the pace of change is so fast that even the most enthusiastic adopters are missing fundamentals. The episode closes with something genuinely new for the industry: a free, community-based AI learning network on Circle, built for STR professionals at every level of familiarity with AI. Steve and Heather are both actively involved, and this conversation is part of the launch. If you have been curious about AI but not sure where to start, or looking for a place to ask questions without feeling foolish, this community is worth knowing about.  ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Ela is co-founder and president of AutoHost, an AI-powered guest screening and identity verification platform used by property managers around the world. But she came to it the same way most VRS listeners came to their businesses: through hands-on operation. Before AutoHost existed, she was running Quick Stay, a Toronto-based property management company that grew to over 100 properties. The tool was built because she was the operator who needed it. The conversation opens with a real incident - a Christmas 2016 call from Toronto police about a known gang member, which revealed months of undetected criminal activity running through Quick Stay's properties. That story explains why AutoHost exists, and it also explains Ela's unusually clear-eyed view of where human judgment fails and where systematic screening has to take over. But the episode is as much about people as it is about technology. Ela runs an AI-first company and is visibly thoughtful about what that means for the humans inside it. She talks about what happens to a team when AI arrives - the anxiety before the relief - and what operators can do to manage that transition honestly. The annual self-care day, which honours Ela's late husband and co-founder, Anton Silberberg, is part of that story too. By the end, the episode covers AI-powered fraud: synthetic identities, voice cloning, and why gut instinct is no longer a reliable defence. If you've been thinking about guest screening as a nice-to-have, Ela makes a case that identity verification is now table stakes - not because fraud is new, but because AI has made it dramatically cheaper, faster, and harder to detect. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

A controversial proposal for the N85 near Kilnamona has sparked quite a reaction locally. Plans to install crash barriers are being questioned, with some arguing they don't go far enough to fix what's seen as a dangerous road. One of those raising concerns is Kilnamona Native Nicholas Rynne, Nicholas joined Alan Morrissey on Wednesdays Morning Focus. Clare Fm reached out to the council for a statement on this issue: “Clare County Council, in conjunction with Transport Infrastructure Ireland, is proposing to install a vehicle restraint system (VRS) to replace the existing plastic barriers and other barriers at a number of locations on the N85 at Kilnamona. In addition, the Council is looking to develop the N85 Kilnamona realignment scheme which would ultimately create a safer road network in this location. However, as the road realignment scheme will take a number of years to deliver, at this time it is prudent to provide a safer vehicle restraint system for the benefit of all motorists.” Image © New crash barrier by middelveld from Getty Images Signature via Canva

En el estudio anterior vimos como el Señor Jesús sanó a un ciego y mudo, que también estaba endemoniado. La reacción que éste milagro causó en las personas fue de asombro, ya que ellos llegaron a preguntarse ¿Será éste aquel Hijo de David? (Vrs 23). Es decir; la gente con este milagro pensó que Jesús era el Mesías, porque lo que acaba de hacer solo Dios lo podía hacer. Sin embargo, como ya es de costumbre, los fariseos vuelven atacar a Jesús pero ésta vez con una acusación muy grave y es que ellos dijeron que Jesús echaba fuera a los demonios por el principe de los demonios, es decir; Satanás. El Señor fue muy enfático al decirles que lo que estaban diciendo era una blasfemia contra el Espíritu Santo, por lo tanto no les sería perdonado, y vimos una explicación sobre el pecado imperdonable. Eso fue lo que vimos en resumen la semana pasada y nos sirve de contexto para el estudio de hoy. Ya que, en el estudio del día de hoy seguiremos viendo ésta confrontación entre los escribas y fariseos con Jesús.

On quitte la France aujourd'hui et on arrive chez Juliette, à Amsterdam aux Pays-Bas où elle est devenue maman 2 fois.Aux Pays-Bas quand tu accouches, une Kraamzorg (entendez une bonne fée avec beaucoup d'expérience) vient te chouchouter et te permet à toi et ta famille d'atterrir en douceur dans le monde merveilleux d'une première , deuxième ou Nième parentalité.Passée la première semaine avec sa Kraamzorg, Juliette ne s'ennuie pas quand elle allaite. Un premier allaitement sur fond d'hyperlactation et d'une candidose tenace dont elle se débarrassera enfin grâce aux écoutes de Milkshaker (fierté max à ce moment précis).Un deuxième allaitement qui démarrait si bien jusqu'à ce que le VRS, entendez la fameuse bronchiolite, tape à la porte de sa petite famille, contaminant sa grande (pas si grande) et son bébé fraichement arrivé.Plus vous contractez la bronchiolite tôt et plus les risques pour votre bébé sont accrus car leurs petites bronchioles toutes neuves n'apprécient pas du tout ce virus potentiellement agressif.C'est malheureusement l'histoire pas si lointaine de Juliette, de son mari et de Céleste qui s'est retrouvée lors de son premier mois de vie projetée à l'hôpital et jusqu'aux soins intensifs pour survivre.Allaiter ce bébé épuisé, puis branché sous oxygène, sondé, comme pour maintenir le lien et tenter de le sauver, c'est la mission que Juliette s'est fixée pour ne pas se sentir impuissante face à l'éloignement que les soins lui imposaient.Penser à la suite, au moment où la vie redeviendrait comme avant. Tirer son lait jour et nuit en espérant voir revenir les tétées au sein et surtout : ce bébé en bonne santé.C'est parti pour l'histoire de Juliette, Olympe et Céleste.Avec des prénoms comme ça : on vient des étoiles, certes, mais pas question d'y retourner de façon prématurée.Je vous souhaite une belle écoute.Charlotte Hébergé par Acast.
