Thirst Is a Lagging Indicator (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Dr. Debbie Chen found the water signal in her own PhD data around 2007, laughed it off, and did nothing with it for a decade. Then came years of amateur Muay Thai and cramping through every session, then a dehydration health scare of her own. She’s now founder and CEO of Hydrostasis, maker of the GECA Watch, which has sold out twice. She and Neal get into why thirst is a lagging indicator, why she believes hydration is the only truly actionable thing a wrist device can measure, the multi-pivot r

Max Darsonval spent twelve years in the SEAL teams, most of it as a combat medic, and left on what he calls a 50.01% decision.

Larry Coval spent nearly four decades leading organizations at AT&T, Global Crossing, and Cox Business, and came out the other side convinced that most of what gets taught about leadership is wrong. He joins Neal to talk about his new book, Misled , and the argument at its center: “team” is the wrong unit of analysis for business, leadership was never a soft skill, and the fundamentals got skipped while the keynote circuit sold platitudes. He also makes the case for the smoked marlin taco at Osc
