What can a close encounter with a nine-foot shark teach us about business, community, and the future?

At Grist’s recent 10th anniversary event of their 50 Fixers list, Steph explores what becomes possible when we choose collaboration over competition, build unlikely coalitions, and share value with the communities we serve. The same shift in perspective can change how we think about climate solutions, infrastructure, and even the stories we tell about the natural world.

Because the goal isn’t simply to survive. It’s to create a future where we can thrive together — by caring for one another, being good neighbors, and, instead of swimming away from each other, swimming toward each other.

Continuing their in-depth review of what Yale admissions officers look for, Hannah and Mark discuss the importance of making a positive impact on others and review how different application components demonstrate students’ support for those around them. The episode explains how officers consider an applicant’s impact on other people and details how Yale’s values and approach to evaluating applications is grounded in a letter written by Yale’s president in 1967. The hosts also shine a light on the shameful history of exclusion that characterized the origins of holistic admissions in early 20th century America.

Dante Gennaro, Peta-Gaye Tomlinson, and guest Jordan Wynn tackle the critical issue of provider bias and its direct impact on health equity in HIV care. The episode distinguishes between implicit and explicit biases, analyzing how underlying assumptions about race, gender identity, and sexual orientation manifest during clinical interactions. Specific examples of gatekeeping are examined, including instances where provider judgment leads to delayed or denied access to PrEP, comprehensive STI screenings, or gender-affirming services.

The conversation emphasizes the practice of cultural humility, underscoring why healthcare providers must commit to continuous learning, unlearning, and active community engagement. The group reviews how specific bias frameworks shape practitioner decisions, particularly within traditionally underserved populations. Providers will walk away with best practices and training approaches designed to dismantle personal bias, build trust, and construct truly affirming care environments.
