Bullish on Business – Episode Show Notes Rewriting Women’s Health: The SheSHIFTS Revolution with Dr. Tru Nguyen & Mary Pate Today’s episode is a deep dive into a transformative new paradigm for women’s health — and honestly, it’s one every woman needs to hear. We’re joined by two extraordinary leaders:

Innovation doesn’t always roar in — sometimes it rolls up with the tide.

About Today’s Guest — Michael LaBlanc Michael blends more than 30 years of leadership experience, over 20 years in information technology, and a lifetime of hands-on problem solving.

Some innovators are born hungry, and others are shaped by pressure that would crush most people. Thomas J. Watson Jr. was both. He didn’t simply inherit IBM — he challenged it, reshaped it, and ultimately reinvented it. His leadership wasn’t the obvious path. It was the path he had to grow into. And that growth, filled with conflict and courage, is what makes him one of the greatest innovation leaders of the last century.

“I want the AI to create all the emails I need for my campaign, figure out the perfect target audience, write my sales letter, and build the landing page… all in one shot.”

Every once in a while, you see an invention that doesn’t make headlines the way flying cars do, but you know it’s a tectonic plate shift. The new Quantum Diamond Foundry in Melbourne is exactly that. Quantum Brilliance, an Australian–German startup spun out of the diamond quantum science group at the Australian National University, just turned on the world’s first commercial facility dedicated to making “quantum-grade” synthetic diamonds at scale.(The Quantum Insider)

This terahertz breakthrough is more than a physics milestone — it’s a business inflection point. Funded by Europe, powered by quantum materials, and guided by visionary scientists, it’s setting the stage for industries that don’t even exist yet.

Cool ideas meet real-world roadblocks fast. Flying cars like GAC’s “Govy AirJet” demand new infrastructure, regulation, and safety frameworks. Where do these things take off? Who controls their airspace? What happens when something goes wrong mid-flight over a populated area? Governments will have to juggle automotive and aviation standards simultaneously — a bureaucratic nightmare, but a necessary one. There’s also the cost factor; early versions will be expensive to produce

Guangzhou Automobile Group (GAC) is blurring the line between car and aircraft with its flying-taxi-meets-autonomous-vehicle concept. Picture this: you step into a sleek road vehicle, it drives you out of the city, then seamlessly detaches a flight pod that lifts off vertically and carries you through the sky. GAC’s prototype — part of its new “Govy” line — merges two worlds: a ground chassis for road travel and a flight pod for air transport.

Structural Battery Composites Imagine a world where the car   is   the battery, the airplane wing   is   the power source, and the energy system weighs nothing extra. Sounds impossible? Not anymore. The next great industrial revolution is already underway — and it’s happening in   Sweden . 💡 The Innovators Behind the Breakthrough - Structural Battery Composites This game-changing leap was born out of   Chalmers University of Technology   and   KTH Royal Institute of Technolo

FlowBeams shows us what’s possible when innovation meets intention. They didn’t invent lasers—they reinvented how we use them. Entrepreneurs who think like that don’t just make money—they make history.

Most people walk through life touching hundreds of door handles every week—and never think twice. But one young inventor from Jamaica did. He saw something everyone else ignored and asked a life-changing question: “What if this ordinary thing could protect lives?”

For generations, women have been told to “lean in.” But Lionesses don’t lean — they lead. Shattering the glass ceiling isn’t rebellion; it’s revolution. It’s not about proving our worth — it’s about living it. The Lioness doesn’t wait for permission to roar. She leads with purpose, builds with power, and brings her pride with her.

SolarSPELL reminds us that the future of innovation isn’t just about artificial intelligence — it’s about human intelligence applied to real problems. As you design your next product, campaign, or business model, remember this: the greatest return on investment is relevance. Solve a problem that matters, and the market — and meaning — will follow.

The banks aren’t the future. The builders are. When data becomes democratized and technology becomes personal, the world doesn’t just get more efficient — it gets more entrepreneurial.

Innovation is only “sexy” when it moves the world forward—and SexTech is doing exactly that. It’s not about devices; it’s about daring to design for human connection in an era of disconnection.

Why does America keep winning? Because it keeps opening the door for the best minds, artists, and innovators in the world — through a little-known visa called the O-1

Within five years, we’ll see personal robots entering homes. Within a decade, they’ll be as common as electric vehicles.
