Ep 30 - Future of Transportation Part 2 with Kei Kyu of Nissan

Your favorite cast take a look into the future of transportation! &nbsp;In this episode, we tackle a steady shift towards autonomous transportation implemented by law in 2017 as the Self Drive Act. &nbsp;Today, more than ever, we have so many inexpensive options that make up the shared economy with cars, scooters, mopeds, and bikes available to loan almost anywhere in the city. How will we be able to commute or transport goods in 2040? or 2050?&nbsp; In this episode, Tami, Rachael, Bryant and Sebastian dig deeper to discuss how these transitions affect various industries, safety, provide alternative options, and require a shift in our mindset. In the next episode, we sit down with Kyu, the Future Design Director of Nissan, to better understand how and why leading car manufacturers are implementing &nbsp;subscription models and self-driving features.&nbsp; Here are the topics addressed and timestamps: 1:42 Introductions, Shared Economy to Subscription Economy 12:57 Affordability, Self-Driving Cars and Functionality 25:52 Industry Disruptions, Levels of Self-Driving 37:22 WWYD In a Self-Driving Car?

Ep 29 - Brainfood with Maxeme Tuchman of Caribu

On Bathroom Talks 3, your host Tami dives into a fun yet insightful conversation on millennial dating and dating trends of our time with her guests, Sam Atherley, Siera Jackson, and Elisa Trujillo. All three ladies are members of The LAB Miami representing Stargazer, Five67, and Connectiv. Dating has a different meaning to everyone, considering that it’s a broad term that has evolved throughout generations. Today, millennials have been labeled for encouraging the hookup culture and are leading the shift of dating trends. On the contrary, the longer we’re taking to commit may be leading to more successful marriages and lower divorce rates. Financial circumstances due to high student loan debt, the rising cost of living, and the lack of well-paying jobs have changed our priorities when seeking a love interest. With various apps to find a mate, and digital saturation with seemingly endless options, the new approach to dating seems convoluted, but perhaps, our perspective has new meaning and positive change and more than anything, a reflection of our society today. Bathroom Talks creates a space to share the reality of women's everyday lives and how we process our experiences. Feel free to share this with all your lady friends! You never know how this information can help. Here are the topics addressed and timestamps: 1:56 Guest Introductions, Definition of Dating, and Perceptions 16:51 Expectations and Dating Trends 28:15 Commitment and Dating Intentions 49:46 Hookup Culture, Dating Apps, Finances 1:16:01 Preparing for Marriage and Dating in the Workplace&nbsp; Be sure to share this episode with your friends and family!

Ep 22 - Brainfood with Jaclyn Baumgarten of Boatsetter

This episode highlights gender equality in the workplace with Sebastian Arrubla, a proud member of the LGBTQ community, who leads this powerful conversation. Title VII of the United States Constitution prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex and national origin. Due to the fact that ‘sex’ is not specified in this statute, technically it is currently legal to discriminate against an employee based on gender. This reality has led to gender inclusion and overall inclusivity in any workplace to significantly shift traditional policies and ignorance. Your hosts Sebastian, Rachael, Tami, and Bryant discuss our personal experiences, perspectives on inclusion, and even taboo questions that should probably not be asked. Join us with tears and laughter as we debunk the importance of acceptance. Here are the topics addressed and timestamps: 0:47 Intention Prayer 2:13 Coming Out and Self-Acceptance 10:01 LGBTQIA Definition and Politics 23:01 Workspace Inclusion Policies 31:18 Feminine Energy, Masculine Energy, amd Sexuality 48:23 Gender Pronouns and Taboo Questions 1:14:33 Workplace Discrimination 1:38:29 The Blank Project "I Am Human and It's Ok" and Inclusion Marketing Be sure to share this episode with your friends and family!!
