In this episode I'm in conversation with David Glazer, founder of the Google Genomics team and an engineering director at Verily Life Sciences, where he helps life science organizations accelerate and scale their work with big data. He is a PI for the Data and Research Center of the NIH All of Us Research Program, serves on the NIH Advisory Committee to the Director, and is a member of the Steering Committee for the Global Alliance for Genomics and Health. (He's also my brother and better at explaining things than pretty much anyone I know!)

We explore how to navigate the extraordinary amount of data swirling around the current pandemic, along with more abstract questions like how to think about hard things, making sense of big and small numbers, and how to explain complex things in surprisingly simple ways.

In this episode I'm joined by entrepreneur, author, and online and television personality Shama Hyder. Shama is the founder and CEO of Zen Media, and has been ranked as one of LinkedIn's Top 10 Voices in Marketing every year since 2016.

In this episode, I spoke with Mavis Karn about her time teaching in juvenile detention centers, who we really are and why it matters, the way that deeper listening changes the dynamic in any conversation, and how making the shift from angry purpose to loving purpose impacts both us and the world around us.

For this episode I spoke with my friend Rob Cook about his experience of race and how it's changed from his time growing up in Birmingham, Alabama, through his nearly twenty years in the military police, and into his life now as a father, fitness guru, and coach in the midst of the Black Lives Matter movement. This was a truly exceptional conversation - Rob and I chatted for a bit after we went off air and both felt moved and graced by what came through!
