Most authors and speakers build their entire brand in one market and never realize how small that is compared to what's possible. In this episode, Kelly sits down with Gautam Ganglani, who has spent three decades bringing the world's biggest authors (Jack Canfield, Brian Tracy, Robin Sharma, Marshall Goldsmith, and more) to the Gulf region and India, to talk about how to take a book and a speaking career truly global. Gautam shares the story of Right Selection, the 30-year family legacy his father started as a Dubai bookstore and grew into live events and executive development, and the principle that kept it thriving across generations. He and Kelly get into the exact playbook for going global, finding a regional publishing partner, building the brand virtually through podcasts and webinars, then landing a concentrated speaking roadshow, and the hard data behind the 10,000-copy tipping point that can take a book from a few thousand sales to 6-figures.

North Korea takes $387 million from Bitget and moves it through THORChain while NEAR's Shield freezes what it can, a Consensys validator hack tests whether staking was ever the risk-free rate, a quant named Benny shows Kalshi's perps volume was cooked, and Apollo warns that AI agents are coming for your checking account. Welcome to The Chopping Block, where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. This week the three of them record from a self-serve podcast studio in Amsterdam. Bitget loses 387 million dollars to North Korea's Lazarus Group and pays every claim from its user protection fund, but the stolen funds raise a harder question: THORChain lets them through while NEAR's Shield freezes them, so which one is actually decentralized? (Dragonfly is an investor in Bitget and NEAR.) Then a Consensys validator compromise tests staking as the risk-free rate, Robert prices insurance on US Treasuries at 35 basis points, a quant named Benny exposes Kalshi's perps volume, and the crew takes apart Apollo's warning about agentic bank runs, from Robert's one basis point checking account to Tarun's agent filing his insurance claims.

What if human beings are capable of far more than modern science has taught us to believe? Dr. Theresa Bullard, a PhD physicist who bridges quantum science and ancient metaphysics, argues that we are “quantum beings” with enormous untapped potential. In this episode of the Align podcast, she joins Aaron to explore telepathy, remote viewing, manifestation, altered states of consciousness, and the possibility that consciousness itself may extend far beyond the brain. Dr. Theresa also breaks down where she believes the New Age gets manifestation wrong. Simply visualizing what you want isn't enough. According to her, real transformation requires coherence between your thoughts, subconscious beliefs, words, intentions, actions, and deeper purpose. What if abilities we currently consider extraordinary are only glimpses of what human consciousness is actually capable of? ALIGN PODCAST EPISODE #613 IS SPONSORED BY:

Today our guest is Alex Alvarado, co-founder and CEO of Daybreak Health, a school-based mental health company partnering with hundreds of K-12 districts to connect students with the care they need. Alex shares a three-part framework for how schools can build a team-based approach to turning a concern about a student into a real connection to care. He also explains why the answer to serving struggling students is not caring more, it is building better systems, and why closing the loop between internal school staff and external providers is the piece most schools are still missing. In this conversation, Alex offers important reminders for educators and leaders: Schools are full of adults who care deeply about students. What breaks down is not the caring. It is the handoff system between the people who identify a need and the people who can meet it. Before implementing a screener, schools need a plan for what happens after. A screener without a follow-up system creates overwhelm, not outcomes. Making a referral to an outside provider is not a failure. It is the system working. The goal is building a network of partners who function as an extension of the school, not a disconnected add-on. Good intentions don't work. Mechanisms do. A system that removes the guesswork from getting a student into the right level of support is what makes consistent care possible.

Can an enterprise move quickly with AI when the information it needs remains spread across business units, acquired companies, private data centers, multiple clouds, and systems governed by different privacy rules? In this episode , I speak with Justin Borgman, co-founder and CEO of Starburst, about the data architecture decisions now affecting how quickly businesses can turn AI investment into useful results. The conversation begins with a reality many established companies will recognize. Their technology estate reflects years of applications, acquisitions, regulatory demands, regional choices, and earlier infrastructure programs. Justin argues that this history becomes a constraint when AI teams need governed access to information quickly. A company created within the last year may design its data environment around AI from the beginning. A multinational enterprise rarely has that freedom. It must work with valuable data held across different locations while respecting security, privacy, and sovereignty requirements. The traditional response has been to centralize everything. Justin believes the single source of truth is often an impossible target rather than a finished destination. Drawing on his earlier experience at Teradata, he says even customers using a leading database continued to retain information elsewhere. New applications, company acquisitions, regulations, and changing business demands kept creating additional systems. His preferred approach is to accept that distributed data will remain part of enterprise life and build an architecture that can work across it. A federated data platform can query information where it lives while giving users a common point of access. This can reduce the time spent moving data before an analyst, executive, application, or AI agent can use it. Justin illustrates the problem through a large American bank with many lines of business and inherited data silos. Senior leaders could ask commercially important questions, but answering them required analytics teams to write queries, assemble dashboards, and combine information from several systems. The process could take weeks. He describes how connecting those sources and adding a natural-language interface can reduce that delay. Starburst calls its interface ADA. It allows a user to ask questions in conversational language while drawing on governed enterprise information and its business context. The company presents this as a way to shorten the path from question to insight without forcing every data set into one platform first. Business value remains harder to prove than technical access. Justin recommends connecting data projects with revenue growth, cost reduction, or risk management. He also points to usage evidence within data platforms. If a data product is accessed frequently by leaders or operational teams, and the cost of producing it is known, those signals can help a company evaluate whether the investment is serving a recurring need. Architecture economics also influence where workloads belong. Justin favors S3-compatible object storage and open formats such as Parquet and Apache Iceberg when companies assemble data in a lake architecture. His argument is that open storage can reduce cost while allowing customers to choose among query engines rather than binding the information to one provider. That advice does not mean every workload belongs in one format or location. Some data will remain in warehouses, operational databases, regional systems, and on-premises infrastructure. Federation can provide access across those environments, while open formats create additional choice for the information that can be consolidated economically. The human side of architecture receives equal attention. Justin says ownership, incentives, and internal politics affect data quality because centralized teams may lack the domain knowledge held by the business unit that produced the information. Treating data as a product gives an organization a way to assign responsibility for quality, maintenance, adoption, and feedback. Named ownership changes the conversation. A successful data product can be recognized and improved because people know who created it. A weak product can receive feedback from its internal users. Distributed control can also allow teams closest to the data to apply their knowledge while the wider company accesses it through common governance. Governance becomes especially important when AI agents can query enterprise information directly. Justin says access controls must operate beneath the agent rather than relying on the model to decide what a user should see. Row-level and column-level permissions, data masking, and query auditing can determine which records are available and provide a record of what the system retrieved. Security and economics are also contributing to renewed interest in running some AI workloads on-premises. Justin says businesses may prefer open-weight models on owned hardware when scale improves the economics or when confidential data cannot comfortably leave the corporate firewall. He expects cloud and on-premises capabilities to coexist rather than one replacing the other. For employees, conversational access could change the role of traditional business intelligence. Justin expects standard KPI dashboards to remain useful, but believes many custom reports and one-off dashboards could be replaced by interactive models that answer questions directly. Analysts and engineers may spend less time responding to requests and additional time improving trusted data products and governance. The opportunity is faster access to answers. The risk is allowing speed to outrun security, quality, or accountability. A federated architecture can connect distributed systems, but it still requires companies to know who owns the data, which users can access it, how results are audited, and whether the outcome supports revenue, cost, or risk goals. Should enterprises keep pursuing one central source of truth, or accept distributed data as a permanent condition and build governed AI around it? Listen to the episode and share your thoughts.

Nobody calls that team failures, but when your career plan slips, you call yourself one. A career plan should work like a project plan. It's clear for the next few weeks, fuzzy further out, and adjusted as you learn. A missed milestone is often a trade-off you made on purpose, like refusing to spend three years kissing the ring of a boss you couldn't stand. Most of Mark's career-planning questions aren't about work at all. They're about family, where you want to live, and the impact you want to have. In this episode: why a master's degree won't get you promoted, how ten minutes of negotiating can be worth $40,000, how to build a peer group that practices leadership the way athletes scrimmage, and the fantasy chess question that helps you work backward from where you want to be.

In this episode, Tara talks with mold expert Ariana Thacker, indoor-living researcher Dr. John La Puma, and regenerative rancher Eric Perner about the hidden environmental exposures shaping modern health. Ariana Thacker is a chemical engineer, venture capitalist, and the founder and CEO of MoldCo, a health-tech platform addressing mold toxicity. After co-founding Conscience VC to invest in science-driven startups, Ariana launched MoldCo, inspired by her own health journey. Eric Perner spent most of his early life and career on horseback learning the craft and trade of equine athletic competitions at the highest level. Eric owns the Double P Ranch in Mounds, Oklahoma where they produce grass-fed beef, goat, lamb and pastured pork as part of the supply chain for REP Provisions. He operates his ranch as a Savory Global Business Hub to provide restoration grazing education and guidance for other local ranchers in the methods of holistic management to create the conditions that lead to the regeneration of our native grasslands.  John La Puma, MD, ChefMD™ is a two-time New York Times bestselling author, board-certified internist, and professionally trained chef who pioneered Culinary Medicine. He now pioneers EcoMedicine from his small regenerative teaching farm. His upcoming book, Indoor Epidemic, reveals how spending 93% of life indoors steals sleep, focus, and years, and how reclaiming just 7% outdoors can restore them using the evidence-based Outdoor Rx framework.   RESOURCES: Learn more about Ariana here: https://go.moldco.com/tara-garrison Ariana's Instagram: @themoldcompany Full episode with Ariana: https://www.taragarrison.com/blog/arianathacker  Learn more about Rep Provisions: Vote for the future of food with your dollar!

The Geeks return with a brand-new Grumpy Old Geeks Wiki containing 21,577 static HTML pages, because apparently the appropriate response to having a massive podcast archive is to build an even more massive searchable monument to it. From there, things get considerably less wholesome as they dig into TikTok's settlement with Alabama, AI companies promising safeguards while simultaneously unleashing increasingly autonomous agents, and an OpenAI agent that apparently decided that “I can't access this” meant “perhaps I should hack it.” Government websites, a university digital library, and other targets apparently became irresistible once the normal route to the information stopped working. The Geeks contemplate the exciting future of digital interns who don't understand that the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act is, in fact, not a suggestion.The AI-agent discussion rolls into Meta's Muse, OpenAI's new agent tools, security boundaries, and the increasingly familiar problem of giving software enough permissions to accomplish a task and then discovering it has developed its own interpretation of “accomplish.” The episode also tackles Utah's attempt to apply age verification requirements to VPN users, New York's legal fight with prediction markets, Meta expanding Instagram into schools, and the continuing saga of AI-generated music and copyright. Then there's Automatic's corporate drama involving Matt Mullenweg, vibe coding, and the increasingly compelling argument that if you can build a website in a few hours, maybe spending years arguing about WordPress is no longer the best use of anyone's time.Finally, the Geeks move on to the technological disasters that really matter: Plex changing the Apple TV skip controls unless you pay for premium, a Samsung software update that managed to turn some AI refrigerators into very expensive food-warming cabinets, and Toy Story 5 proving once again that Hollywood has never met a perfectly good ending it couldn't monetize. There's also a trio of soccer documentaries, including Italia 90, Angel City, and Game and Glory; a discussion of the Strange New Worlds finale “Tomorrow's Enterprise”; and Meta's new lightweight VR glasses. Because nothing says “we have learned absolutely nothing” quite like putting more software between you and your refrigerator.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

All Home Care Matters and our host, Lance A. Slatton, were honored to welcome Crystal Gallo, Founder and CEO of Innerhive, as a guest to the show. In this important conversation, Crystal joins Lance to discuss the rapidly changing landscape of family caregiving, the growing number of individuals providing care at home, and why better organization, communication, and coordination will be essential as America prepares for an unprecedented demand for care. Crystal shares how nearly two decades of building teams and growing high-impact technology companies ultimately led her to a deeper purpose through her own experience with family caregiving and inspired the creation of Innerhive. The discussion explores the dramatic growth of family caregiving in the United States and what caregiving looks like today as more care takes place inside the home. Crystal and Lance discuss the increasing responsibilities being placed on families, the realities facing the professional caregiving workforce, and why simply hiring more caregivers may not be enough to meet the country's growing care needs. With every baby boomer reaching age 65 or older by 2030, families, professional caregivers, home care organizations, healthcare providers, and communities will increasingly need to find better ways to work together and support one another. Lance and Crystal also discuss an important challenge that exists in many homes: there are often two care teams supporting the same person — the professional care team and the family care team — yet those teams may not always have access to the same information or understand the complete picture of what is happening day to day. Small observations about changes in mobility, behavior, routines, medications, nutrition, sleep, or overall wellbeing can provide important context. But when that information is scattered across conversations, text messages, notebooks, appointments, and different members of the care team, valuable details can easily be lost. The conversation explores how closing those information gaps and creating a more connected picture of care can help families and professionals identify patterns, communicate more effectively, and create a more sustainable system of support. For families navigating caregiving, the future of care will not simply be about who can provide the most services. It will increasingly be about how effectively everyone involved can organize, communicate, collaborate, and understand the complete picture of a person's care. About Crystal Gallo: Crystal Gallo is the Founder and CEO of Innerhive. After almost two decades of building teams and growing high-impact technology companies, Crystal discovered a deeper purpose through an unexpected experience with family caregiving. That experience helped shape her perspective on the challenges families face when trying to organize information, coordinate care, communicate with professionals, and make sense of the countless small moments that make up someone's caregiving journey. Crystal founded Innerhive with the vision of transforming how people care for one another and helping family caregivers and their broader support networks find greater clarity, connection, and wellness throughout the caregiving journey. About Innerhive: Innerhive is a voice-first care companion designed to turn scattered family caregiving observations and information into actionable care intelligence. Care is often made up of thousands of small moments. Innerhive allows caregivers to capture what they see and experience so information has a central place to live, helping families recognize patterns, maintain important context, and stay connected with the people involved in a loved one's care. By helping create a family record of care that can complement the information maintained by professional caregivers and healthcare providers, Innerhive is working toward a more connected and sustainable model of care in which everyone supporting an individual can better understand the whole picture. Innerhive is also inviting family caregivers and care professionals to help shape the conversation around what better care coordination should look like.

He was previously CEO of the Slate Group, co-founder of Panoply, and editor-in-chief of Slate Magazine. He has written for publications including The New York Times, The New Yorker, and Financial Times. He is the author of several books and a lecturer at Yale University. Jacob is vice chair of the Committee to Protect Journalists and a member of the PEN Board, reflecting his long-standing involvement with issues of global press freedom and independent journalism.A devastating reckoning with the people and institutions whose failure to stand up to Trump's brazen grab for authoritarian power has been particularly shocking and consequential It may be scant solace, but history will be particularly harsh to a subset of Trump enablers with a few key things in common: They have money and power. They represent intuitions that are central in determining whether America remains a free, functioning democracy or not. And they absolutely know better. History starts now. In Profiles in Cowardice, Jacob Weisberg has written one of the first defining books of the Trump Era--how this pitch-black political moment happened, why so few resisted, and what it reveals about the character of American leadership. Jeff Bezos, Amazon, and Big Tech. Stephen Schwarzman, Blackstone, and Wall Street. Brad Karp, Paul, Weiss, and Big Law. Mitch McConnell and the United States Senate. Eight individuals in all, together forming an entwined network of power in America, and a new way to understand how authoritarianism can take root in an open society--not by overthrowing institutions, but by bending and bullying them into submission. The book is a masterful study of the ways people create rationalizations to justify basic human instincts such as greed, vanity and fear--above all fear. Fear is the great enemy of democracy, and the book illuminates how it operates, how it disguises itself, and how it spreads. The book is timeless: its profiles are case studies, but they are also mirrors. They ask readers to examine their own instincts, their own silences, their own thresholds for action. This is not a morality tale with easy villains. It is an attempt to describe the moral mechanics of democratic failure. By studying that failure up close, we may better understand what courage truly requires--and why it is so rarely summoned when it matters most.

"I made a decision in my head, I'm going to America. I'm going to come here, build a business, live a life, get a green card, then get citizenship, do it all above board. But the decision was massive. How do I make it stick?"Welcome back to The Speaker Lab Podcast! In this Alumni Spotlight, Dan pulls up a chair with Julian V. Taylor — a British-born media entrepreneur who spent more than two decades building businesses on both sides of the Atlantic. Julian started in magazine publishing in London, launched RedCoat Publishing in Boston, and produced television for networks like the History Channel and Discovery. Now he speaks to CEOs and leadership teams through his workshop, "Decisions That Stick," part of his broader Bold Bridge Method for working with the C-suite.Julian walks through how a couple of outreach phone calls landed him in front of Vistage groups — one of the toughest rooms there is — and what it was like running his first workshop for a brand-new group in Tallahassee after losing his voice on a London work trip. He breaks down the hands-on tools he brings into those rooms, including a Decision Contract (each participant writes a contract with themselves to keep a decision on track) and a Consequence Ladder that maps where a choice actually takes you. He also gets honest about the session that didn't go well: a third workshop with too many people dialing in remotely, a score that came back below where it needed to be, and the rule he built from it.But the real surprise? The content wasn't the hard part. Julian expected building his curriculum to be the biggest climb. It wasn't — that flowed naturally. The brick wall was everything else: who to call, who to talk to, and the hours it takes to work the phones. Dan and Julian dig into what's actually working now — from a longtime friend who told Julian poolside that his team needs exactly what he teaches, to Vistage chairs recommending his workshop to other chairs. Dan coaches on depth over breadth (go deeper into rooms you've already been in before going wider) and the 85/15 reality of speaking: maybe 15% of the time is on stage, and the other 85% is everything that gets you there.Whether you're building your first workshop, trying to crack into executive peer groups, or grinding through the middle stretch where the content is ready but the pipeline isn't — this conversation is full of practical, honest insight on what it actually takes.You'll learn:How two outreach calls to business owners in Ohio turned into three back-to-back Vistage meetings in FloridaWhy Julian ran his first Vistage workshop with almost no voice, and why not overthinking it helpedThe Decision Contract: the agreement each CEO writes with themselves, on paper, to keep a decision on trackThe Consequence Ladder, Julian's three-lane interstate for seeing where a decision's consequences push youWhy you can't blanket-call or blanket-email Vistage chairs, and what to do insteadWhat a low score on his third workshop taught him, and why he now turns down rooms full of people dialing in remotelyThe part Julian expected to be hardest (building the content) vs the part that actually is (finding planners with an event six months out)Dan's 85/15 rule: how little of a speaking business actually happens on stageWhy a friend's comment by the pool and chair-to-chair referrals beat a bigger list, plus Dan's case for 30 minutes of outreach a dayHow speaking pulled Julian into consulting, including a succession plan for an owner whose four kids are buying the business"I've got two or three other chairs that are considering my curriculum and my workshop. And they've spoken to the other chairs. So now they're, oh, you came highly recommended. How would you do this for my group? That's worth its weight in gold."Are your best opportunities hiding in rooms you've already been in?

The “Make America Healthy Again” movement held a big shindig in Washington, D.C., this week. But rather than moms arguing to get pesticides and processing chemicals out of their kids' food, the room was full of Trump administration officials and industry representatives looking to promote health-related products. Meanwhile, as the fiscal year ends, the administration for the second year in a row is refusing to spend money Congress appropriated — and basically daring the other two branches of government to stop it. Rachel Roubein of The Washington Post, Shefali Luthra of The 19th, and Rachana Pradhan of KFF Health News join KFF Health News' Julie Rovner to discuss these stories and more. Also this week, Rovner interviews Aaron Carroll, president and CEO of AcademyHealth, to discuss the Trump administration's dismantling of the federal Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality.  Visit our website to read a transcript of this episode.Plus, for “extra credit” the panelists suggest health policy stories they read this week that they think you should read, too: Julie Rovner: The New York Times' “U. of Michigan Halts New Grading Plan After Backlash From Critics,” by Madaleine Rubin.  Shefali Luthra: The Atlantic's “The Babies Left Behind in America,” by Caitlin Dickerson.  Rachana Pradhan: KFF Health News' “US Poised To Boot Legal Immigrants From Medicaid, Including Refugees and Sex-Trafficking Victims,” by Phil Galewitz, Andrew Jones, and Claudia Boyd-Barrett.  Rachel Roubein: Stat's “Once Described as Obesity Medicines for ‘Patients,' GLP-1s Are Increasingly Lifestyle Drugs for ‘Customers,'” by Elaine Chen.

How should a business measure AI success when employee adoption tells leaders very little about revenue, savings, risk, or better decisions? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I speak with Thomas Robinson, better known as T-Rob, who recently moved from Chief Operating Officer to CEO of Domino Data Lab. After ten years inside the company, he has seen enterprise AI move through several phases, from specialist data science projects to generative AI tools available across the workforce. T-Rob argues that businesses have become too focused on the technology itself. Generative AI has attracted attention because almost anyone can use it, but an individual productivity tool is very different from an AI system making decisions about mortgages, clinical trials, financial markets, or defense operations. As the potential value of a decision rises, so does the financial, regulatory, and operational risk. That is why T-Rob believes governance should be built alongside AI development rather than added after a system has been completed. He compares the process with constructing a building. Engineers do not wait until the work is finished before checking whether it has been designed and assembled correctly. Reviews happen throughout construction. Domino applies the same principle to AI through policy controls, production monitoring, tracing, and continued human oversight. We also discuss why companies should avoid beginning with a fashionable tool and searching for somewhere to use it. T-Rob recommends starting with the company's primary business measures and working backward. A pharmaceutical business may examine the number of promising therapies entering its pipeline, revenue, and risk. The appropriate AI system can then be designed around those outcomes. That system may combine large language models with computer vision, statistical models, rules, and company data. T-Rob believes the assumption that every business problem requires the latest frontier model can waste money and produce weaker results. People remain a major part of the equation. T-Rob has seen companies reduce headcount in anticipation of AI replacing employees before the technology was ready. He argues that domain experts become more valuable because they understand the business history, operating environment, exceptions, and consequences that a model may miss. The conversation also considers model independence and AI sovereignty. Many enterprises became dependent on a single cloud provider by building their own technology on proprietary services. T-Rob believes businesses should avoid repeating that decision with AI models. Open systems can allow companies to replace models as prices, capabilities, regulations, and operational needs change. For organizations handling sensitive intellectual property, sovereignty also raises questions about what information leaves the business when employees prompt external models. T-Rob describes the risk of enterprise knowledge being absorbed into future model development, even when information has been anonymized. Perhaps his strongest argument concerns measurement. He calls consumption and adoption terrible measures of success because they mainly reveal cost. Giving every employee an AI tool does not mean the entire company becomes proportionally more productive. Real return comes from improving the business processes that generate revenue, reduce expense, control risk, or support better decisions. Are businesses ready to stop measuring AI by logins and start measuring what it changes inside the company? Listen to the episode and share your thoughts.

In this episode of The Jess Larsen Show on Innovation & Leadership, Jess sits down with Lauren Antonoff, CEO of Life360, to talk about leading a roughly $4 billion technology company through its next stage of growth, expanding from family location sharing into a broader platform for keeping people, pets, and things connected. Lauren shares how her career at Microsoft, GoDaddy, and other major technology companies shaped the way she thinks about product, leadership, and customer experience. She also opens up about the transition from founder Chris Hulls to her taking over as CEO, why the process took years of working together, and what founders should consider when choosing someone to lead the company they built. They explore Life360's growth beyond 100 million users, the company's investments in pets and aging parents, and how Lauren decides where to allocate capital when there are more opportunities than resources. She explains why some of the biggest opportunities require investing years before the payoff is obvious and why understanding the real behavior of customers matters more than simply responding to feature requests. Jess and Lauren also dive into what it means to become an AI-native company. Lauren shares how Life360 is building AI into both its internal workforce and its products, including a future where technology can better understand family routines, reduce everyday friction, and help people stay connected without keeping them trapped inside an app. The conversation ultimately comes back to one of Lauren's core beliefs: customer love is one of the strongest competitive advantages a company can build. From product development and M&A to freemium business models and long-term investing, Lauren explains why companies that genuinely understand and serve their customers can create value that is incredibly difficult for competitors to replicate. This episode is a deep conversation about product strategy, AI, leadership transitions, capital allocation, customer obsession, M&A, and building technology that becomes part of people's everyday lives.

What happens to a founder's identity when the business ends, the title changes, or the exit doesn't bring expected fulfillment? In this episode, host Ramon Vela sits down with Julie Harrelson, CEO of Harrelson Global, strategist, speaker, and former venture capitalist. Drawing from her background as a founder, executive, and managing director who made over 100 investments, Julie reframes how leaders view setbacks, transitions, and daily grief.  Together, they explore: * The concept of daily grief and how acknowledging minor, routine losses builds the resilience needed for major life challenges. * Dual processing, holding space for both grief and joy simultaneously rather than treating them as separate experiences. * Navigating identity shifts during career step-downs, role changes, board removals, and post-exit transitions. * The importance of emotional awareness, seeking help, and integrating humanity into competitive leadership. Join us for this podcast as Julie and Ramon dive into what it truly takes to develop self-awareness, practice compassionate leadership, and cultivate genuine joy through life's continuous changes.
