Mike revisits key lessons from the pandemic, including why top organizations “handle hard better,” and explains why “winning in the turns” still applies in today's environment of constant disruption.They also unpack where many leaders are misreading AI, especially as supply chain and IT continue to converge, and what that means for CSCOs.

Most of us don't wake up intending to serve money. And yet, over time, financial pressure, goals, and anxieties can quietly begin shaping our decisions, priorities, and even our sense of security. Jesus addresses this directly in Luke 16:13: “You cannot serve God and money.” But that doesn't mean money has no place in the life of a believer. It simply means money must never be our master. The invitation of Scripture is far better: not to serve money, but to serve God with money. Money Is a Gift to Receive with Gratitude One of the most important starting points is recognizing that money is not inherently bad—it's a gift. Ecclesiastes 5:19 reminds us, “Everyone also to whom God has given wealth and possessions and power to enjoy them—this is the gift of God.” God is not opposed to provision or even enjoyment. In fact, when Jesus fed the five thousand in Matthew 14, He didn't just meet the need—there were twelve baskets left over. The message isn't excess for its own sake, but that God's provision is abundant and generous. When we begin here, with gratitude, money shifts from something we grasp for to something we receive. Money Reveals What We Trust At the same time, money carries real spiritual weight. 1 Timothy 6:10 says, “The love of money is a root of all kinds of evils.” Notice—it's not money itself, but our love for it that leads us astray. Money has a way of exposing our hearts. Every financial decision—spending, saving, giving—asks a deeper question: What am I trusting right now? Am I looking to money for security? Am I using it to shape my identity? Or am I trusting God as my provider? Money is morally neutral, but how we use it is deeply spiritual. Money Is a Tool for Purpose, Not a Goal Scripture consistently points us beyond accumulation. Ephesians 4:28 tells us to work “so that [we] may have something to share with anyone in need.” That's a profound shift. We don't earn simply to build our own lives—we earn to participate in God's provision for others. This reframes everything: Work becomes more than survival—it becomes participation in God's generosity. Saving becomes preparation, not fear. Investing becomes stewardship when it supports future responsibility and generosity. Money finds its greatest purpose when it flows outward, not when it's hoarded inward. Putting Money in Its Proper Place Jesus' words in Luke 16:13 remind us that money must remain a servant, never a master. John Wesley captured this beautifully when he wrote: “Money is an excellent gift of God… it is food for the hungry, drink for the thirsty, raiment for the naked.” That's a picture of redeemed money—money used for purposes that reflect the heart of God. Holding Money with Open Hands There's one more truth that frees us: money is temporary. 1 Timothy 6:7 says, “We brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of the world.” Every dollar we manage is something we steward for a season. But how we use it can have a lasting impact. When we remember that: We enjoy God's provision without clinging to it. We plan wisely without placing our hope in wealth. We give generously because we trust God to provide again. So before your next financial decision—whether it's spending, saving, investing, or giving—try asking: “Lord, how can this money serve You and others?” Because money is never the destination. It's a tool placed in our hands to accomplish something far greater than ourselves.

In light of the ongoing crisis and the profound resilience of the Iranian people, we are revisiting this timely conversation with Princess Noor Pahlavi. Born into the Iranian royal family as the eldest child of the Crown Prince, Princess Noor heard the call to civic duty from an early age. Inspired by the legacy of her grandfather, the last Shah of Iran, and her grandmother, the Empress Farah Pahlavi, she has chosen a path defined not by title, but by action. Refusing to sit on the sidelines, she leverages her platform to amplify the voices of those fighting for a free and democratic future. In this episode, Princess Noor joins host Jay Ruderman to discuss her mission to bridge her family's history with modern activism. She provides a passionate look at the "dire" state of affairs for women under the current regime and explores the global resonance of the #WomanLifeFreedom movement. From her advocacy for gender equality and healthcare access to her work with organizations like Acumen and the Persian American Women's Conference, Princess Noor offers a vital perspective on what it means to stand in solidarity with a nation reclaiming its autonomy.

Text your thoughts and questions!We've been conditioned to think that more time equals more output. This might make sense on the surface, but in reality, this burnout-inducing approach degrades your performance and increases your stress rather than improving your results. This week, episode 307 of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast is about why work sprints are better than marathons!In this episode of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I'm sharing a work sprint method that allows you to stop working against your neurology and start producing higher-quality work in less time. Key Takeaways:Science shows that working in focused, fully committed bursts followed by deliberate recovery periods improves concentration, decision-making, and the overall quality of your output.Just like in HIIT fitness, recovery in productivity isn't a "reward" you haven't earned. By adopting "structured sprints" based on Agile methodology, you prioritize efficiency and continuous improvement over rigid, undefined work periods.The Pomodoro Technique is a simple way to start sprinting. Work for 25 minutes with full focus, followed by a 5-minute break, to train your brain to expect both focus and rest.Identify your natural "window of peak cognitive performance" during the day and protect that time specifically for your high-intensity work sprints.The secret to sustainable productivity isn't finding more hours in the day; it's honoring the energy you have within those hours. My invitation to you today is simple: Pick one task, set one timer, and try just one sprint. Thank you for listening!

Hello to my fantastic listening audience across the internet. Welcome to the latest installment of my podcast. I've been a busy boy this week. Mourning the loss of a head coach, paired with the end of the season for the Heels, planting a flowerbed and exponentially expanding a Pokemon collection in a weekend really can take it out of a fella. I watched the first half of the Dook Uconn game today and left the house in an upset storm around halftime to deal with my Pokemon affairs. Left the house angry because Duke was winning by 20, not thinking in the least that Uconn would come back and have one of the best finishes I've seen in years. Wow I do love this game. My favorite time of year if I'm being honest is still the fall because of the trees in the mountains. BUT March is a close second because of things like that Duke Uconn finish. March Madness makes it fun to be alive for a month. I did finish dead last in the bracket pool that I entered. Saint John's let the boy down. Tough cheese. I hope some individual out there enjoyed the episode. Honey Bee by Muddy Waters and company really kicks the mule. Prince on Plectrumelectrum is suuuuch a nice tone and still to this day, Jimmy Page playing No Quarter at The O2 Arena in my opinion is the best example of guitar playing that one could offer. Whoever reads this, God bless. But you're here so what the heck. In four months I've managed to find and maintain a loophole in the Pokemon card world that has allowed me to catapult rather quickly to an impressive collection. A card shop owner this week told another customer that I most likely have more than enough to become a vendor at card shows. I believe that he is right. To give a visual, it is currently 5 full binders of modern, 2 full binders of vintage and a huge tote box full of the more fancy stuff. All sorted and organized. I felt like the Daywalker at that card show this weekend absolutely going nuts in there and balling out of control. No shame at all. I'm a 33 year old man with more game than an arcade. I handed an ol boy a handful of cards for trade value earlier today. I read this guy like My Side of the Mountain. After seeing the top 3 cards in the stack, buddy looked up at me like I was Neo in the Matrix. "How did you know I liked this stuff?" his question to which I replied "Who doesn't like that stuff"? He gave a trade value offer and I cracked buddy for a nasty Mewtwo. WHAT AN EAR BEATING. The point is, I almost didn't have time for my ever-faithful listening audience across the inter webs because I was too busy balling out of control. Submitting this at midnight like Cinderella. Work in the morning will be cheesed out. Until next time..Your Host with the Most Pokemon cards,Witwicka Juan Don

Most people think retirement begins the day they turn in their notice. In reality, retirement begins much earlier than that. It begins the moment you stop depending on your employer for everything. In this episode, James explains what it really means to “fire your employer.” It is not about quitting your job tomorrow. It is about breaking the invisible ties that make people feel stuck even when they already have the financial ability to walk away.For many people, the first tie is financial. A paycheck feels essential, and the portfolio sitting in the background still feels like just a number. But when that number is translated into a reliable income stream, the relationship with work begins to change. Employment stops being a necessity and starts becoming a choice.Health insurance is another common barrier. Many people assume they cannot retire until Medicare begins at age sixty five. Yet when healthcare is treated as simply another expense to plan for, rather than a wall that cannot be crossed, the path to retirement becomes far more flexible.But the deepest ties to work are rarely financial. Work provides structure. It creates relationships. It gives many people a sense of identity and purpose. When that disappears overnight, even a large portfolio cannot fill the gap.That is why the real work of retirement planning is not just financial preparation. It is designing what life looks like when work is no longer the center of it. Relationships, health, community, and purpose all need a place in the plan.Firing your employer is not about leaving work immediately. It is a mindset shift. The moment you realize you no longer need your job to define your income, identity, or purpose, everything about your relationship with work begins to change.--Advisory services are offered through Root Financial Partners, LLC, an SEC-registered investment adviser.

The Shadow of Entrepreneurship: Why Most Founders Break Before They Build (Founders Compass) | Phil Neil . What If Entrepreneurship Isn't Your Path to Freedom… But the Thing That Exposes You? . Let's stop pretending. Most people don't want to build a business. They want the identity they think success will give them. Freedom. Control. Status. Legacy. But here's the part nobody warns you about: Entrepreneurship doesn't just build your company. It strips you down to who you actually are. And if you stay in long enough… It will find the cracks.   In this episode , Dov Baron sits down with entrepreneur, investor, and founder of Founders Compass, Phil Neil, to confront what most founders spend years avoiding: The Shadow of Entrepreneurship Because behind every success story you've been sold… There's another story: The burnout no one posts about  The identity collapse that follows rapid success  The emotional patterns quietly sabotaging decisions  The pressure that turns smart founders reactive   

If you feel like you're doing everything right but still not seeing results… this episode is your wake-up call.In this solo episode, I'm breaking down the mindset patterns that are actually keeping you stuck because more often than not, it's not your macros, your workouts, or your plan… it's the way you're thinking about them.We're diving into the victim mindset what it looks like (even when you don't realize you're in it), how it shows up in your fitness journey, and why it quietly keeps you spinning your wheels. I also walk you through how to shift out of it so you can start taking ownership, building momentum, and actually seeing progress.This isn't about blaming yourself it's about empowering yourself.If you're ready to stop making excuses, start showing up differently, and finally reach your goals, this episode is for you.—Work with me:I help women build strong, sustainable physiques without extremes whether you're in a fat loss phase, building phase, or looking to find balance with food again.

What if the biggest reason you feel stuck is that you are not measuring the right things?In this episode, Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros address a simple truth. Success gets easier when it gets measurable. Instead of chasing vague goals, they focus on three areas that shape real life: health, wealth, and love. They explain what to track first, why trendlines matter more than daily emotion, and why simple metrics beat complicated systems. The deeper lesson is clear. If you do not measure what matters, you will keep relying on feelings, and feelings are not a reliable growth strategy.____________________Learn more about:Track the Work. Earn the Results.

Today on The Natural Birth Podcast we have Shiva Shiva is a mom of three and stepmom of one, originally from Turkey and now raising their four boys with her husband in Denver, Colorado. Half Iranian and half Turkish, she's a bilingual psychotherapist whose work in health psychology, PTSD, perinatal mental health, and parenting is shaped by cultural diversity and a commitment to health equity across communities. She is devoted to raising heart-centered boys, the practice of yoga, and exploring women's liberation and bodily autonomy in West Asia, threads that powerfully shaped her three physiologic births.This is the second time Shiva guests this podcast and she comes with so much birthing wisdom yet again. Shivas first episode is called Riding the waves and power of birth through mantra and is the 10th most listened to birth story of all time.I hope you'll enjoy this one as much as her first.This was her third natural birth and her second home birth. The time period of the pregnancy had a good bit of stress and hardship and she was concerned that with the stress and her age, she wouldn't be able to have the birth she wished for. But she decided to trust and nature did what it is good at. It heard the whispering of what she dared to hope for, and it went so smoothly, exactly as she had hoped: a fast, healthy water birth at home witnessed by two of the older brothers.Curious about Shiva?

Have you ever wondered how those in highly demanding jobs that require almost 24/7 attention to the job manage to do it? Well, I've been researching and found a few common habits that may help you get more out of your day. Let's begin… Links: Email Me | Twitter | Facebook | Website | Linkedin   The 2026 Spring 50 Sale Get Your Copy Of Your Time, Your Way: Time Well Managed, Life Well Lived The Working With… Weekly Newsletter Carl Pullein Learning Centre Carl's YouTube Channel Carl Pullein Coaching Programmes Subscribe to my Substack  The Working With… Podcast Previous episodes page Script | 410 Hello, and welcome to episode 410 of the Your Time, Your Way Podcast. A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development, and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show.  It seems everyone feels under pressure with increasing workloads and demands on their time. And research is backing this up.  Instead of reducing the workloads of the typical knowledge worker, AI is increasing it. In one study published last month in the Harvard Business Review, 83% of knowledge workers reported an increase in their workloads after adopting AI tools.  Yet even in the age before AI, smartphones, and desktop computers, there were jobs that required an intensity few people could or would endure for very long.  For example, if you were to look at the daily schedules of Presidents Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford, and Carter, you would see an official workday beginning around 6:30 am and ending well after 7:00 pm, 7 days a week.  Just look at pictures of President Carter on his inauguration day and compare them to pictures of him on President Reagan's inauguration day; you can see the toll the presidency had on Carter. It seemed to have aged him 20 years, and yet it was only four.  If we were to look at President Obama's schedule. While he did not typically start work until around 9:00 am, he would work well into the night, catching up on briefing documents and other background reading. In total, he was working 12 hours a day, seven days a week.  Yet each of these leaders used techniques that helped maintain some calm amid otherwise chaotic days. They were well-tested, proven techniques that so many people seem afraid to use today.  This week's question is about these techniques and how you might adopt some of them to manage your workload while still having time for rest and family.  Let me now hand you over to the Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's question.  This week's question comes from Aaron. Aaron asks. Hi Carl, what advice would you give to someone who cannot get on top of their work, no matter how many “time blocks” they put on their calendar?  Hi Aaron, thank you for your question. Now, you didn't specify what kind of work you do, but I can answer based on what I've learned from former world leaders and CEOs and how they managed their days when facing global challenges. I know not all of us are running a major country, but lessons from people like Presidents Eisenhower, Kennedy and Ford may help you see that there are ways to take control of your time, do the things you want to do, and get a lot done.  The first approach almost all highly effective people do is to protect time for quiet work. This might not necessarily be deep focused work; it could be reading reports or, in the case of presidents and prime ministers, briefing documents prepared for them by their staff.  Of the people I have read about and studied, all of them protected some time during the day. Mostly, this was early in the morning or late at night.  John F Kennedy, for instance, would read the newspapers at 6:30 am, before he met anyone in his office. This gave him a heads-up on emerging world events and often meant he knew more about a subject than any of his aides did.  One interesting note about Kennedy and his brother, Bobby, was that they both took a speed-reading course when they were younger, and it is reported that John Kennedy could read 1,200 words in one minute.  Imagine that. That's going to save you a lot of time. That's being able to read one of my longer blog posts in a single minute!  As a side note, it is reported that Theodore Roosevelt would read a book a day, sometimes two, as well as all his briefing documents.  Now, I suspect that in the early to mid 20th century, with no computers, people read far more than we do today. If you are reading thousands of words a day, you're naturally going to become a faster reader.  Presidents Nixon, Kennedy and Johnson would read briefing documents late into the night. In the case of Presidents Johnson and Nixon, this was often until 2:00 am in the morning.  President Obama also read late into the evening, from around 8:30 pm, after spending some time with his family, he would go to a quiet room and read until midnight or 1 am.  The advantage of doing their reading late at night was that they were unlikely to be disturbed, and it was quiet.  One thing you could do is set aside time somewhere in your day for undisturbed quiet work. Whether that is reading, working on a project or simply replying to your emails and messages.  Just this one change in your day will relieve some of the pressure you may be feeling. It will give you time to work on the non-urgent things that, if you ignore, will soon become urgent and add to the stress and anxiety that working reactively inevitably causes.  Now let's talk about structuring your day.  This is something that, if you're not doing, you'll find yourself getting pulled all over the place with no chance of getting on with anything important.  Structuring your day means planning out what you will do and when. When will you do your most important tasks of the day? When and where are your meetings? When will you take time to rest and relax with your family?  If you begin any day not knowing this, your day will run away with you.  Again, let me give you an example of a US president.  Jimmy Carter would disappear into the living quarters of the While House at precisely 6:30 pm every evening to have dinner with his family.  No matter what was going on in the world. Whether it was a Middle Eastern oil crisis, spiralling inflation or some other world crisis (sound familiar?), Carter would never miss his family's dinner hour. It was sacred.  During that time, nobody from his office was allowed to interrupt him, no matter what was going on in the world. That could wait an hour. Spending some quality time with his family could not. His daughter was young at that time, and she would go to bed around 8 or 9 pm.  Could you do that? Could you “disappear between 12 pm and 1 pm, cut off from the outside world; no phone or computer for one hour, so you could stop and enjoy lunch with your family or friends? It's easy to believe that we have to be “available” all the time. No, you do not.  Not even the leader of the Western world needed to be available every hour and minute of the day.  You're not dealing with a world crisis where people's lives are at stake. You're likely dealing with more mundane issues, like a customer who is frustrated because their ordered electric window motor hasn't arrived as promised. Or a boss who suddenly becomes agitated because sales dropped 12% last month.  Gee whizz! What can you do right now? Probably nothing. You're not going to be able to miraculously produce an electric window motor in a few seconds, nor can you change last month's sales figures.  These things can wait an hour or two. They really can!  This is why, when I get clients to do the “perfect week” exercise, I ask them to do their personal life first. This is the one area most people will sacrifice for their work.  When will you spend time with your family? When will you exercise? When will you spend time on your hobby?  These should be your non-negotiables every day.  President Eisenhower would stop work at 3:30 pm every day to spend an hour or two practising his golf on the White House putting green. President Johnson would go for his daily swim at 2:00 pm every day.  And Gerald Ford would start his day with an hour on his custom-built static bicycle and finish off with 50 push-ups. Every day!  It did not matter what was going on in the world; these presidents knew that exercise was important for them to function, and they made sure they were clear-headed enough to make the right decisions on some of the world's biggest and most urgent problems.  Your customer's missing electric window motor or your boss fretting about a 12% drop in sales is nothing compared to what these presidents had to deal with every day.  Make sure that what is important to you is prioritised, time protected and non-negotiable.  Urgent events will pass, and your being unavailable for an hour or two is not going to significantly affect the result one way or the other.  Another part of all these presidents' days was taken straight out of Winston Churchill's daily routine.  The daily nap.  When you are tired, stressed, anxious, and worn down by the constant noise and decision-making, you will no longer be able to make good, rational decisions. It's as if your brain tightens up and can no longer access your creative thinking.  Winston Churchill discovered this while serving in the army in India in the early 1900s. India is very hot during the day, and it was customary among the officer class to take naps during the warmest part of the day.  Churchill discovered that by taking a proper nap mid to late afternoon, you could do high-quality work well into the evening. And so, when he returned to the UK, he continued to take naps.  As Churchill said, "Nature has not intended mankind to work from eight in the morning until midnight without that refreshment of blessed oblivion which, even if it only lasts twenty minutes, is sufficient to renew all the vital forces.” Presidents Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon and Carter all took daily naps. Ranging from 30 to 60 minutes. It was their way of shutting out the noise of presidential work and giving their brains time to re-energise and refresh.  I remember when I first came to Korea and discovered that many of the office workers I was teaching were working 18-hour days and surviving on only 3 to 4 hours of sleep.  I asked them how they managed to do that six days a week, and they replied that they took a nap when they returned from lunch. Korean office workers are legendary for eating a full lunch in less than fifteen minutes. That left them with forty-five minutes to an hour for a nap.  Not so common today, working hours in Korea have reduced over the last ten years or so, but back in the early 2000s, work hours here were gruelling. So there you go, Aaron. There are ways of managing our workloads. It may mean you need to consider redesigning your work hours. The 9-to-5 concept is a relatively recent one. Before the 1980s, people in positions of authority would take longer lunches, and these were often social; and they would do much of their focused work either early in the morning or late at night (Tim Cook still does this)  But whatever you do, put your life first. Work is fleeting. Yes, it's a part of your life and an important one, but it is only a part of your life. Your personal life matters too.  Put your family and friends and health, both physical and mental, first. Then decide how you will structure your days so that the important things get done.  I hope that has helped. And don't forget that my Spring sale ends on Tuesday, 31 March (two days left). If you want to pick up my recent Time-Based Productivity course (which includes free access to the Time Sector System course) for just $99.00, you have about 48 hours left to get it.  Plus, you can save $50 on my 2-session coaching programme. A great way for me to help you personally get control of your system so you are more focused and clear-headed about what needs to be done and when.  I will put all the details in the show notes. Thank you, Aaron, for your question, and thank you to you, too, for listening.  It just remains for me now to wish you all a very, very productive week.

Episode #375 – Is Your Welcome Discount Hurting Your Email Performance? When it comes to growing your email list, most ecommerce brands are focused on one thing: more. More subscribers. More signups. Higher pop-up conversion rates. But what if the way you're growing your list - especially through your welcome discount - is actually making your email performance worse over time? At first, it can feel like everything is working. Your list is growing quickly, your pop-up is converting, and new subscribers are coming in every day. But underneath that growth, something else might be happening. In this episode, I break down the hidden downside of optimizing for list growth without considering subscriber quality - and how your welcome offer might be shaping your results far beyond that first signup. Because your welcome flow can only perform as well as the people entering it. ✨ You'll learn: • Why more subscribers doesn't always mean more opportunity • How optimizing for pop-up conversion can quietly weaken your list • The two types of subscribers your welcome offer attracts — and why it matters • How low-intent subscribers impact engagement, conversions, and deliverability • Why your welcome flow performance depends on the quality of your inputs • How your welcome offer shapes the long-term relationship with subscribers • Why list growth should be measured by quality, not just volume • Three simple ways to evaluate and improve your welcome offer strategy Growing your list isn't just about getting more people in the door - it's about attracting the right people. When your welcome offer is aligned with your brand and your messaging, you build a list of subscribers who actually want to hear from you - and that's what drives long-term performance.

Do we also receive a Neshamah Yeseirah on Yom Tov? Does it have any effect on our capacity to eat? Is there any medical or scientific basis for the claim that calories are “absorbed” by the Neshamah Yeseirah and therefore don't count on Shabbos and Yom Tov? What are some practical ways to manage our eating on Pesach while still fully enjoying the Yom Tov?

In this episode of Next Level University, Kevin and Alan unpack a question that hits harder the more you grow: what if getting to the next level means learning how to disappoint people? They talk openly about the skills that do not feel good to build, like saying no, giving hard feedback, protecting your time, and facing the guilt that can come with all of it. Through stories about sports, leadership, friendship, and business, they show how external success often creates internal pressure. They also explore the difference between under-committing, over-committing, and building relationships you can actually sustain.This episode will help you think about the one skill that could change everything for you and the hidden skill you may need to build right after it.

Do you ever wish you were more grounded, had stronger boundaries, felt more clear and aligned in your purpose, and could powerfully ask for what you want and need?If so, then you might resonate with Nice Guy Synrdome, and you probably want stronger YANG energy (as opposed to YIN energy). Here, Luke breaks down the mind-body connection through the lens of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). explaining how unspoken resentment, chronic worry, and swallowed boundaries don't just affect your relationships — they show up in your immune system, your gut, and your posture.Meanwhile, we get real about what women actually feel in the presence of a man who's either checked out of his power or swinging it around like a wrecking ball (spoiler: neither feels safe or sexy).The good news? Yang energy can be rebuilt — and faster than you think, especially in community. We dig into why breathwork and meditation are such powerful tools for men ready to stop walking on eggshells and start showing up fully. If you've ever wondered why you're so tired, why you can't seem to ask for what you want, or why something just feels stuck — this one's for you.---Memorable quotes from this episode:"The yuckiness that I'm not stating, I will produce and absorb. I'll swallow it, put it down into my own system, and then I will digest that angst, that resentment, that grief, that sadness.""The state of mind that brought on the disease cannot be the state of mind that cures the disease. Don't change who you are — and the disease has no choice but to remain the same.""When I — or my women friends — can feel that a man is deeply present, and that he has the capacity to stand up for himself… that is sexy.""When you watch another man break through — you feel proud, and you feel: if he could do it, I can do it. Because I relate to him and his pain and his story. I know his story, because it's my story.""Let's get on with the business of living!

The Grand Palais in Paris this week unveiled an enormous exhibition focusing on the final 13 years of Henri Matisse's life and work, a project conceived by the Centre Pompidou. The show includes abundant examples of the celebrated gouache cut-outs, his works for the Chapel of the Rosary in Vence, and his final paintings, drawings, and illustrated books, among much else. Ben Luke interviews the exhibition's curator, the Centre Pompidou's Claudine Grammont, in Paris. The latest edition of Art Basel Hong Kong opened this week amid much uncertainty about the Hong Kong art world after a prolonged downturn in the Chinese economy. Yet, some commentators are suggesting that Hong Kong has turned a corner. The Art Newspaper's chief contributing editor, Gareth Harris, has been in Hong Kong this week and tells us what he discovered. And for this episode's Work of the Week, we focus on a related painting and dress. The painting is Salvador Dalí's Necrophiliac Spring (1936), which was owned by the fashion designer Elsa Schiaparelli; the dress is the Tears Dress with Veil, from Schiaparelli's Circus Collection of 1938, made with a fabric designed by Dalí. The painting and the garment are in Schiaparelli: Fashion Becomes Art at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, which opens this weekend, and Ben talks to Rosalind McKeever, one of the three curators of the exhibition, about the pairing.Matisse 1941-1954, Grand Palais, Paris, until 26 July. You can read more on the show, and get the full details on a wealth of Matisse shows opening in various museums and galleries in 2026, on the website or app.Art Basel Hong Kong continues until Sunday, 29 March.Schiaparelli: Fashion Becomes Art, Victoria and Albert Museum, London, 28 March-8 November Hosted on Acast.

In episode 177 of 'On the Whorizon' SWCEO founder and host MelRoseMichaels‬ breaks down one of the biggest myths holding creators back: waiting to be discovered. If you've been posting consistently but still feel invisible, this episode will show you why. Growth isn't about luck, algorithms, or being “picked.” It's about positioning, visibility systems, and intentional strategy.MelRose walks through a practical framework for becoming discoverable on purpose, including how to build a visibility funnel, structure your content across top, middle, and bottom of funnel, run a 30-day visibility sprint, and reuse your best-performing content to stay top of mind. She also explains why consistency alone isn't enough and how to shift from passive posting into strategic growth. If you're ready to stop hoping for traction and start creating it, this episode is your blueprint.

Summary In this episode of the Faith & Work podcast, host Ross Chapman continues our "Voices from the Workplace" series with a deep dive into the world of healthcare. He sits down with husband-and-wife team Dr. Matt Mahlberg and Cindy Chang Mahlberg, who lead the Colorado Center for Dermatology and Skin Surgery. Together, they explore the delicate balance between high-level medical expertise and the "business of caring." Drawing from Matt's experience as a Mohs surgeon and Cindy's background as a corporate attorney and entrepreneur, they reflect on how healing is not just a clinical process, but a redemptive one. From the "intimate moment" of skin cancer surgery to the intentionality required to lead a team of 50, Matt and Cindy invite listeners to consider how their own daily responsibilities meet real human needs and extend God's mercy and compassion to their neighbors.
