Great overview of growth. Id love to see a deeper dive into this subject matter woth a case study or two. I find examples are much more helpful than broad theoretical summaries. 

Career strategist Julie Bauke tells us about the drivers behind the latest worker shortages, and what it could mean going forward.

Calling in sick or going on vacation, workers aren't showing up this summer

Pioneer in women’s health and New York Times best-selling author Dr. Christiane Northrup chats with Jessica Ortner about how to feel young every day—regardless of your age. Through her own experience, Christiane discovered the importance of having a deep connection with your divine, ageless self. From this place, you can learn to change your negative conversation about aging and understand that old age is not a time of loneliness and uselessness. Rather, it’s a time of great joy, purpose, and fulfillment during which you can look forward with excitement to what the future holds. In addition to advice about how to change this conversation, Christiane recommends fortifying your body with the optimal amount of nutrients, such as vitamin D, iodine, and magnesium, for energy and clarity. Finally she opens up about how important it is to embrace new beginnings. This essential part of life will help ensure that your best years are yet to come!

Goddesses Never Age: How to Grow Older Without Aging - Dr. Christiane Northrup

Daredevil Season 2 is almost upon us and that means a new iteration of The Punisher, one of the most mangled and misrepresented characters in Marvel cinematic history! To help us wade through Frank Castle's movie graveyard, Lon Strickland comes on the show to argue that Dolph Lundgren's 1989 version is the best so far! Beyond that, we talk about Spider-Man dropping in on the 'Captain America: Civil War' trailer, the state of animation in the USA and what it was like for Lon to work at Machinima during their heyday!

Growth is one of the most top of mind questions for entrepreneurs building startups of all kinds (and especially consumer ones) -- but how does one go beyond a mindset of "growth hacking" to thinking about growth more systemically and holistically? What are the key metrics to know; why; and how?

This episode of the a16z Podcast -- one of two in a series -- focuses on the user acquisition aspect of growth, followed by engagement and retention in the next episode. Featuring a16z general partners Andrew Chen and Jeff Jordan, in conversation with Sonal Chokshi, the discussion also covers the nuances of paid vs. organic marketing (and the perils of blended CAC); the role of network effects; where does customer lifetime value (LTV) come in; and much more. Because at the end of the day, businesses don't grow themselves...

Reggae Mix - Time To Wake Up

What do you aim to do this year? Or, more the point: what kind of person do you want to become? One thing is for sure: Getting there is all about change. And that begins with the habits that shape your days (and, by extension, your life). 

To kick off Evernote's new podcast series, we asked James Clear, the author of the bestselling book Atomic Habits, to share his insights on where our goals go astray and how we can hack the habit loop to make meaningful, lasting changes—one tiny step at a time.
