"The basic premise of the event is that hunters hunt rattlesnakes from the surrounding environment all across West Texas, and bring them into the roundup for the weekend. And during the roundup, these snakes are kept in a pit and then, one by one, beheaded and skinned in front of in front of audiences." - Elizabeth MeLampy Elizabeth MeLampy is a lawyer dedicated to animal rights and protection, and her passion for this work shines through in her latest book, Forget the Camel, the Madcap World of Animal Festivals and What They Say About Being Human . To research the book, Elizabeth traveled across the country, immersing herself in a wide range of animal festivals — from the Iditarod dog sled race to the rattlesnake roundup in Sweetwater, Texas. Elizabeth examines these festivals as revealing microcosms of our broader relationship with animals. Whether it's rattlesnake hunts, frog-jumping contests, ostrich races, or groundhog celebrations, these events reflect the ways humans use animals to express cultural identity, community pride, and historical traditions. Yet beneath the pageantry and excitement lies a deeper question: Is our fascination with these spectacles worth the toll it takes on the animals involved? With compassion and insight, Elizabeth invites readers to consider whether there’s a more ethical and empathetic way to honor our stories — one that respects both animals and the traditions they inspire. Please listen, share and read, Forget the Camel. It will be released on April 8th, 2025. https://apollopublishers.com/index.php/forget-the-camel/…

Today we’re talking with Yam Regev, the founder of Zest.is, a content distillery focused on providing actionable content to its users. Yam shares how combining a human touch with automation became essential to Zest’s rapid growth. Zest has gone from 0 to almost 18,000 weekly active users in just a year, and a lot of that growth is thanks to the fact that Yam personally responded to every single content submission when Zest first started. That human touch created a powerful WOW moment for Zest’s users, which created a positive feedback cycle that brought them back over and over. So listen to how Yam was able to achieve this super-human feat by being smart about when to automate & when to be human, and how his commitment to the unscalable led to Zest’s success.

So don’t try to be someone else because we wanted you.” – Omer Molad Today we’re talking with Omer Molad, the founder and CEO of the recruiting software startup, Vervoe, on how to bring a more human element into the hiring process. Omer shares an incredibly personal story about how he learned to earn the trust of his team members’ while he was a platoon commander in the Israeli army in his early 20s.

Why ‘feminine’ traits lead to higher revenue, performance and customer engagement 1:04:03

7 yearsที่แล้ว1:04:03

1:04:03

I’m very excited to introduce today’s guests: Nilima Bhat & Raj Sisodia, co-authors of Shakti Leadership and pioneers of the Conscious Capitalism Movement. They join me to talk about how qualities traditionally considered to be more ‘feminine’ – such as empathy, compassion, vulnerability and even love – are helping businesses increase revenue and create higher levels of employee engagement and customer satisfaction. And this isn’t just their opinion. They came to this interview packed with research and studies showing that companies that embody these qualities significantly outperform businesses that prize domination, competition, aggression, and winning at any and all costs. These two make such a powerful case for the need to bring a people-first mindset into every aspect of business that if I could make this episode required listening for business leaders, I would. So have a listen and learn more about what traditional, profit-oriented businesses are getting wrong, and how a new generation of companies is setting itself up for long-term success. Topics Discussed in This Episode: [00:02:46] The existential crisis that led to Nilima leaving the corporate world and look for answers elsewhere [00:05:08] Raj’s background and what led him to Conscious Capitalism and his current line of work with Nilima [00:11:27] The research that shows that people are looking for more feminine qualities in leadership [00:12:38] The concept of shakti leadership [00:17:06] How to talk about the concept of shakti leadership in a way that’s accessible to anyone, regardless of spiritual background [00:21:58] Raj’s experience with the concept of shakti [00:27:30] The positive aspects of masculine qualities [00:30:04] What it looks like for a company to embody a balance of feminine and masculine principles [00:32:57] What companies look like when they have too many negative masculine or feminine traits [00:37:52] How to create a company that embodies a balance of positive masculine and feminine traits [00:45:00] The response to corporate pushback against ideas like the seven levels of consciousness [00:52:23] Data that supports the fact that companies that follow the values of conscious capitalism do better [00:56:34] Resources that Raj and Nilima recommend…

How do you cultivate a healthy, open culture that empowers employees to thrive? In today’s episode, we’re talking with Diana Chapman, the co-founder of The Conscious Leadership Group, about how to create a more authentic, people-focused culture at work. Diana and her team have helped dozens of organizations, including Ebay, Asana, Whole Foods and more, to increase employee engagement and performance by eliminating drama, building trust, and cultivating a culture where authenticity, vulnerability, and transparency can take root. And they’re getting results. In fact, Dustin Moskovitz and Justin Rosenstein, the co-founders of Asana, actually give every single one of their employee the chance to go through CLG’s leadership training, and credit that with helping them to more effectively achieve their company goals. In this episode, you’ll learn: How Diana went from teaching scrapbooking classes in Michigan to teaching Silicon Valley giants the importance of conscious leadership Why authentic conversations and mindfulness matter, not just in personal relationships, but also within organizations The need to value emotional intelligence and ‘body’ intelligence as highly as cognitive intelligence How to cut through drama and see the underlying facts How to change your approach to a situation by changing the way that you frame it How to create a roadmap to get yourself and your team out of negative habits Diana is an incredibly open and inspiring person and was more than willing to share the exact exercises she guides companies through to help their employees to thrive.

“I realized that I’m doing the same stuff as I was doing at the first launch, this is like launch number four, and I’m not growing like I should be. What’s the missing piece here?” “What I discovered? There’s a big difference between your audience and your customers.” - Brian Dean, founder of Backlinko.com Today, we’re speaking with Brian Dean, the founder of Backlinko.com, about the importance of talking to people in order to make sure your messaging is on point. I’ve been a fan of Brian’s for years now, and his site is one of my favorite sources for everything related to SEO and building backlinks.

So listen closely and find out how Brian dramatically increased his launch numbers with a simple human-first approach.
