What does she think?
44:45
It's, it's about habit, isn't it? If you go to see a film that you really love on the big screen, quite often then you'll arrange to go with your friends for something else, or indeed, in case of the younger generation, go to see the film a second time with different friends or with a new perspective.
44:58
And I think that's one of the keys here is a lot of the films like, um, the Spider-Man film that are doing well are getting repeat viewings, which is great news for the box office.
47:34
Is this gonna last beyond the summer? I mean, are there things in the pipeline that are gonna, you know, keep this up?
47:38
Definitely.
47:39
I mean, just tomorrow we've got The End of Oak Street, great sci-fi coming out, and then looking later in the schedule towards the end of the year, you've got, um, the 18th of December, they're calling it Dunes Day.
47:49
We could have the Barbenheimer effect here because you've got Avengers: Doomsday and Dune Part Three coming out, and, and that of course also features Zendaya.

And so at what point does competence itself becomes comfort for an individual?
11:34
I think it has to do a lot with what you just described, which is I am so comfortable here.
11:40
And I had an opportunity like that when as part of my career, very long, a lot younger than I am and have less experience than I have.
11:51
But probably the reality is the same from the perspective that opportunities will come and knock on your door.
11:59
And in my particular case, it was, Anna, we would like to invite you to come from HR into business development.
12:08
And I thought, no, I'm the queen of HR.
12:12
Why would I want to leave? Why would I want to leave? Because I knew all the processes, the people, everybody knew me, everybody respected me.

If somebody was listening and thinks that they may be in their own competency trap, What's the first thing you would advise them to do?
IbrahimHOST
29:41
whether
29:41
it's information, whether it's, you know, you already had the meeting the day prior with your team and they already provided the input, etc.
29:51
So whatever it is for decision making.
29:53
So that would be one thing.
29:56
Our brains don't work in a line, in a straight line.
30:00
They work like when you see a monitor, for example, for your heart and how it jumps up and down.
30:07
That is how our brain operates.

IbrahimHOST
47:26
okay okay that was wonderful by the way So if someone is listening right now who wants to become a more focused, resilient and impactful leader over the next 12 months, what practical roadmap would you recommend them to follow?
4:33
Like, you could see it being done on stage, but we've got it in a very confined area.
4:38
It is.
4:38
Indeed, it's a remake of a, of a Spanish film, I believe.
4:40
Um, and it's-- I thought this was fascinating 'cause I love things that happen in that kind of slightly claustrophobic space.
4:46
And you're with the, the couple initially, where they're panicking, trying to get ready, and they're clearly strained in that relationship.
4:52
So as the other couple come downstairs and you see them, and, you know, Penélope Cruz k-plays a psychotherapist and a sexologist.
4:59
Um, so she starts talking, and the conversations leads to their sex lives, and becomes clear they have very, very different perspectives and, and, and sort of different levels of their sex life and different views on relationships.

27:37
I wish I could." And I think it, yeah, I think it's a r- quite powerful, fun, off-kilter neo-noir that feels very current.
3:06
Right.
3:07
So it was a wh- it was a whole family affair.
3:10
You know, we would all pray every day.
3:12
And there's one thing that stood out to me, you know, growing up.
3:18
We would open the door to the, to, from our bedrooms, you know, to go to pray, but all around the room where we would pray, these are all verses, scriptures on the walls.

45 MINS LATER

48:11
... just straight dinner, huh? [laughs]
48:13
Just straight... [laughs] You know, and then at 7:00 p.m. we have to be back at the, uh, a prayer, you know, until 11:00 p.m., 10:00 to 11:00 p.m. Every day.
48:25
It was consistently every day put in my heart that now as a mother, you know, I love being on, on my knees, spending that time with the Lord-
48:09
implications see a filmmaker you're particularly um familiar with uh anna f gary gray
48:18
Not one of my particular favourites, but I certainly was intrigued to see him do this.
48:23
And I think actually, probably for me, when you say, of course, the plot doesn't have any social implications, you're right.
48:29
But I think the very fact that you've got a black woman in the lead here, or a woman of colour, is actually significant and does put a different approach on it.
48:41
And I think...
48:42
For me, there are some kind of politics going back to what I think of Tessa Thompson in the lead role, because here is a young woman of colour who goes, she's been overlooked, but she persists.
48:56
She makes sure that she gets the job, even when she's told she can't have the job.

18 MINS LATER

66:38
Yeah, it
5:33
How can VividVault help a DPC practice?
5:36
Yeah, absolutely.
5:37
So let me start off and say we're not here to come integrate and create a new workflow.
5:41
I view this as a health navigator.
5:45
It's based on the concept of nurse navigation, and our hope is that when you walk in that room, the patient pulls up their f- files.
5:52
We make it better because the patient comes in, and they can fill out the stuff ahead of time.
5:56
They're not sitting in your office, and they come in with a very concise, "This is what needs you need to know." We collect things like what are your goals in health? We collect information such as what are-Your primary languages.

8 MINS LATER

14:27
But so I'm wondering, how do we, as f- as the physicians working with our patients who are bringing their information in through Vivid Vault, how do we see their mental health picture as we see other things like diagnosis of hypertension, genetic history?
