Happy New Year

The primary focus of this episode is a personal reflection on the significant events that transpired in the year 2025, as narrated by me, the host, Bill Risser. With a career spanning nearly 25 years in the real estate sector, I take this opportunity to share not only the highlights of my podcast journey but also poignant personal experiences that shaped the year. Notably, I recount the momentous occasion of my son Kevin's wedding in Asheville, North Carolina, as well as the subsequent reception hosted in Miami for family and friends. Furthermore, I reflect on the conclusion of the Die Happy Tour, which marked the end of a profound chapter in my life, culminating in the passing of my dear friend John. This monologue aims to encapsulate the myriad of emotions and milestones encountered throughout the year, providing listeners with insight into both my professional and personal realms. In an evocative solo episode of the Real Estate Sessions podcast, host Bill Risser embarks on a profound exploration of the year 2025, characterized by both joyous celebrations and poignant reflections. As he marks a decade of podcasting, Risser opts for a personal monologue that eschews the customary guest interviews, allowing for an unfiltered and intimate narrative. His nearly 25 years of experience in real estate informs his storytelling, yet this episode is less about the industry and more about the personal experiences that have shaped his life. Risser recounts significant personal milestones, such as the wedding celebrations of family members Kevin and Sarah, set against the breathtaking backdrop of Asheville, North Carolina. The vivid imagery he employs brings to life the narrow, winding roads leading to an enchanting Airbnb, creating a sense of adventure and familial joy. The narrative extends to a subsequent reception in Miami, further emphasizing the importance of family gatherings and the connections that bind us. Each anecdote serves to highlight the significance of love and community in navigating life's myriad challenges. Conversely, the episode does not shy away from the weighty themes of loss and remembrance, particularly as Risser reflects on the conclusion of the Die Happy Tour, dedicated to his beloved friend John, who passed away in November. This segment of the narrative is rich with emotion, as Risser shares the final golfing experiences they had together, entwining their shared passions with the poignant reality of mortality. Through these heartfelt reflections, Risser captures the essence of friendship, the bittersweet nature of farewells, and the enduring impact of cherished memories. As he looks forward to the next year, Risser expresses a desire to revitalize the podcast and reconnect with his audience, reinforcing the importance of ongoing dialogue and community in both real estate and life.Takeaways:The host, Bill Risser, reflects on his tenth anniversary of the podcast and shares personal highlights from the year 2025, marking a significant milestone in his journey.During the episode, Bill recounts the memorable wedding of Kevin and Sarah, noting the picturesque setting in Asheville, North Carolina, which provided a stunning backdrop for the celebration.Bill emphasizes the importance of personal connections and experiences, detailing a special family trip to Key West that included engaging activities such as a bike tour and viewing manatees.The episode also touches on the conclusion of the Die Happy Tour, a poignant chapter in Bill's life, reflecting on the impact of his late friend John and the fulfillment of promises made to him.

This week, Kenzie dives into the horrifying crimes of Johann Jack Unterweger, one of Austria's most infamous serial killers—who was shockingly released from prison after already committing murder.

In the episode, it was said that the Allies had East Berlin and the Soviet Union had West Berlin.

In this  episode with my bestie Rosie Acosta gets real. We're talking about why humans are indefinitely unhappy.   I recently ended up on my grandma's couch after a crazy transition—termite-infested Airbnbs, packing all my shit, redirected by the universe. And here's what hit me:   I was so grateful for this moment with my 86-year-old grandma, someone I only have so much time left with. AND at the same time, I'm thinking about my next villa in Bali or wondering if I should be focusing on finding a partner instead.   There's this paradox in life where you're always winning in one thing and losing in another. When you're at the beach, you're not at the mountains. When you're with your partner, you're not working on your business. When you're spending time with family, you wish you were on vacation. It's perpetual.   And that is why it's so hard to be happy—because we're so attuned to what we are NOT having in this moment.   In this episode, we explore:

Rachel Gogel, an independent design executive and "devoted generalist," shares her journey from GQ and Facebook to creating her own fractional leadership consultancy. Operating at the intersection of brand, culture, and technology, she works with organizations like Airbnb and Intuit while teaching at California College of the Arts.Her career philosophy centers on designing your own path without permission—starting when she unexpectedly became a people manager at GQ in her early twenties. Rachel redefines success as a harmonious blend of consulting, mentoring, teaching, speaking, and advocacy—deliberately remaining small while creating meaningful impact. Drawing on experiences with chronic health conditions and loss, she advocates for conscious time design and questions the "FIRE" mentality, reminding us that time itself is a luxury we shouldn't take for granted.Key TakeawaysGeneralists belong in the creative landscape — The ability to adapt, work across mediums, and jump between projects at various altitudes represents uniquely human capabilities that AI cannot replicateConviction matters more than specialization — In rapidly changing creative industries, having strong principles and adaptability is more valuable than being pigeonholed into a single discipline or titleEmbrace discomfort as a catalyst for growth — The messiest moments and most uncomfortable situations often become the foundation for the greatest career breakthroughs and learning experiencesRelationships are your greatest asset — Every major opportunity comes through genuine connections built on generosity, empathy, and helping others succeed without expecting immediate returnsDesign your career without waiting for permission — You don't need validation from institutions or traditional career paths; you can package your unique skills and create your own professional identitySuccess doesn't require scaling up — Growth doesn't always mean expansion; you can be a successful solopreneur by remaining intentionally small and defining success on your own termsPractice conscious time design — Regularly audit where your time and energy go; ensure you're investing in work that aligns with your values, impact goals, and desired lifestyleRemember that time is a luxury — Don't defer meaningful work or authentic living to some distant future; be present and intentional with how you spend your finite time on this planetMoney and meaning don't have to be mutually exclusive — Challenge the false dichotomy between financial stability and creating meaningful work; both are possible with intentional career designShare knowledge and lift others up — Transparency about money, opportunities, and career paths creates community strength and often returns to benefit you in unexpected ways Daring Creativity.

In "Via Francigena: Slow Travel, History, and Self-Discovery on Foot," host Annie Sargent chats with Olivier Andrieu about his incredible 100-day journey along the Via Francigena. Olivier, a former corporate sales director, decided to quit his job and walk from Canterbury, England, to Rome, Italy. He wanted a fresh start and a challenge, and the Via Francigena provided both. Listen to this episode ad-free Olivier shares the highs and lows of his adventure. He walked an average of 25 kilometers per day, staying in convents, monasteries, and Airbnbs along the way. He met people from all over the world, discovered hidden historical gems, and immersed himself in the beauty of slow travel. Olivier's journey took him through England, France, Switzerland, and Italy, offering a rich tapestry of landscapes and cultures. One of the highlights of Olivier's journey was the historical discoveries he made. He learned about a young World War I soldier whose name was engraved in a church near his home. He visited the statue of Rodin in Calais and discovered convents just an hour's drive from his home that he had never seen before. These discoveries added depth and meaning to his journey, connecting him to the history and culture of the places he visited. Annie and Olivier also discuss practical tips for anyone considering a similar journey. Olivier recommends a 35-liter backpack and high-quality gear. He used Akileine Nok cream to prevent blisters and had minimal injuries throughout his journey. His packing tips and advice on finding accommodations are invaluable for anyone planning a long-distance walk.

La CAN au Maroc, c'est aussi un grand rassemblement de supporters d'Afrique et du monde. Les diasporas sont au rendez-vous. À titre d'exemple, près de 110 000 billets avaient été achetés depuis la France après la deuxième phase de mise en vente fin octobre. Ce sont les avantages d'une compétition organisée cette année en période de congés, dans une destination touristique abordable et déjà prisée en Europe. Le chœur des Comores, en plein cœur de Casa. Sur le terrain du stade Mohammed V, les Cœlacanthes peinent face à la Zambie. En tribune, le match est gagné largement. « La diaspora est motivée, déterminée. Moi, je suis prêt à aller au Vélodrome de Paris, donc à aller au Maroc pour ma patrie. Franchement, j'y vais tous les jours », explique Laris, un supporter marseillais.   À l'entraînement, aussi, Laris et sa bande poussent derrière l'équipe nationale. Ils sont venus de Paris, de Marseille, de Brest. Impossible pour eux de ne pas être là. « Une fois qu'on a su qu'on était qualifiés et que c'était au Maroc, à proximité, on a décidé de mettre les moyens. On a pris un Airbnb comme n'importe qui, on est très simple, voire très très simple. On reste pour les phases de poule, donc c'est dix jours. On est dix personnes, donc cela fait deux cents euros par tête. Le billet d'avion, en fonction de quand il a été pris, c'est entre deux cents et cinq cents euros. On en a pour huit cents, mille euros, grand maximum », raconte Laris. Et en plus, ce début de CAN colle sur les congés de fin d'année. Résultat, le Maroc est un vrai carrefour des diasporas africaines.  « On a l'habitude de se chamailler, de se charrier quand on est en France. Là, on peut le faire dans un pays où on se rejoint tous. Il y a des Maliens, des Sénégalais, des Burkinabè, des Algériens, c'est comme si on était en France un peu », affirme-t-il.  À lire aussiÀ la Une: la CAN, un instrument de soft power pour le Maroc Des supporters de l'Algérie, dans un train en partance de Kénitra, racontent : « On vient de Lyon et ça serait bien plus compliqué d'aller en Afrique du Sud. Ça serait plus compliqué de s'intégrer à la ville et au pays. Le train, c'est la même chose qu'en France. Il y a des TER, des TGV. C'est exactement la même chose. On va voir trois matchs du Maroc, trois matchs de l'Algérie, un match du Sénégal et un match de la Tunisie. Ça fait un total de huit matchs. On est venus pour du football. » Certains viennent aussi en famille pour profiter de l'ambiance et du pays, comme Bourama, un Sénégalais de région parisienne. « Moi, c'est la première fois que j'amène mes enfants au Maroc. La photo avec la mascotte, je vais la garder en souvenir. C'est quelque chose de très marquant. On va garder chaque souvenir, comme la photo qu'on a prise aujourd'hui, elle va rester dans notre mémoire collective à jamais », assure Bourama. Et puis, il y a des visiteurs, plus inattendus, comme Zach et Alex. Ils viennent de Leeds en Angleterre, deux fans de football sans attache particulière avec l'Afrique. « C'est une super occasion pour découvrir ce tournoi. On peut voir cinq matchs internationaux pour le même prix qu'une rencontre de Premier League », dit l'un. « On s'amuse beaucoup. On a vu RDC - Bénin hier, aujourd'hui Guinée équatoriale - Burkina Faso. C'est une ambiance de fête. Pour moi, le football, c'est d'abord un sport qui rassemble. Et la CAN nous permet de découvrir différentes communautés de ce continent fantastique qu'est l'Afrique », ajoute l'autre. Selon des estimations relayées par les médias nationaux, le Maroc pourrait accueillir plus de 500 000 visiteurs étrangers supplémentaires sur la période de la CAN.

Våren 2024 leier Ragnhild ut leiligheten sin til en hyggelig mann som forteller at han trenger et sted å bo mens han pusser opp barndomshjemmet. En dag får hun en urovekkende telefon fra naboen hjemme i bygården, som spør om hun har leid ut leiligheten på Airbnb. Han sender henne et skjermbilde av en naken dame på alle fire på spisebordet hennes, med logoen til en eskorteside. Ragnhild skjønner at leiligheten hennes blir brukt som bordell. Hvordan skal hun ta tilbake hjemmet sitt? Hvem er egentlig mannen som har leid hos henne – og hvem er kvinnene som jobber der?Airbnbordellet har premiere 1. januar.Hvis du vil høre hele serien så fort den er ute, kan du bli Svarttrost-medlem her: https://www.svarttrost.no/bli-medlemHistorien er fortalt av Ragnhild Skåle Hetland.

What if the book you're writing is actually about the story holding you back? In this episode, Amanda Johnson shares how twenty years of helping entrepreneurs write books revealed something most people never see: the reason you can't finish your book usually has nothing to do with time, organization, or writing skills. It's the old stories you're carrying that keep one foot on the gas and one foot on the brake. Amanda's work goes far beyond traditional book coaching. She creates what she calls "story saving" experiences where high-achieving entrepreneurs finally see the truth they've been avoiding. She tells the remarkable story of a social worker writing a "choose your own adventure" book about high-conflict divorces who spent 18 months unable to get one character right. Amanda kept trying to show her client she was writing her own husband, but the truth wasn't safe enough to see yet.  After a decade of watching hybrid publishing houses destroy clients' carefully-built brands with covers that would "completely disrupt trust," Amanda's 19-year-old entrepreneurial son suggested while she cursed in the kitchen: "Mom, how about we just build a publishing house?" Now, with her son as business partner and youngest sister as creative designer, Amanda runs Saved By Story, a boutique hybrid publisher where every detail honors the transformational work her clients have done.    [00:03:40] Entrepreneurial DNA Raised with entrepreneurial grandparents, it's in her DNA Accounts for rebellious spirit: entrepreneurs see problems and think "I could fix that" Thought she was going to be a Christian journalist at end of high school Got to university, asked to be part of honors program (classic books program) [00:04:40] Learning to Think Critically Four and a half years wrestling with great ideas and stories that formed civilization Hadn't been taught how to think critically or feel greatly Halfway through decided: I want to get to teens before they're in college alone and disconnected Became a history teacher to help teens think critically and wrestle with big ideas [00:05:40] Bouncing Out of the System Got classroom with all gang bangers, drug dealers, kids nobody else wanted first semester "What is the logic here? Send the newbie to barely survive?" Did it for six months, gave absolute best Realized couldn't give it her all every day and show up as good mom for toddler [00:06:20] The Online Writing Program Friend of family starting online writing instruction program "You have teaching credential, writing chops, can do it anytime when your kid is sleeping" Helped build curriculum, got really great results Went to networking events to share the program [00:07:00] The Side Business That Changed Everything Female entrepreneurs said "I don't want you to teach me to write, I need you to fix what I've written" Opened side business helping people get clear on message, audience, and engagement Quickly found story was the answer Story was also the answer to why most people weren't finishing their books [00:08:40] The Retreat Model Today Mostly retreat and community model for busy, wildly successful individuals They need time away, good excuse to say "I'm out for three days, seven days" They know how to focus and achieve goals, but book always gets pushed to back burner All of a sudden five or ten years have gone by [00:09:20] Authorship is Lonely Like Entrepreneurship Not every entrepreneur writes book to establish authority Entrepreneurs can be very lonely working from home without water cooler experiences Gets exacerbated when someone decides to write: Who am I to write? How does one do this? Having community where everybody's in same soup moves people much more quickly [00:10:40] Two Types of Clients First type (15-20%): "I need this done in three months and published in another three" Example: Client franchising business in six months, needed book published first Wrote book in less than three months, published in another three months These clients know how to block time and make it happen [00:12:40] The Choose Your Own Adventure Book Works in high conflict divorces, helps judge sort out what's best for kids Wanted to write choose your own adventure for her career Family with parents and two children, both parents get three options each All sound amazing but only one actually is best, shows destination of each choice [00:13:40] Writing the Husband Character Writing family quite unfairly, good for women but men would say "What? She didn't do anything" Couldn't get one character right, Amanda realized she was writing her husband We write what we know Readers said "No way would I put this in front of male reader, this has to be changed" [00:15:20] Breaking Generational Patterns Didn't have enough safety in herself, writing character out helped her see truth Realized all the stuff in marriage was generational Has been able to break that generational story for her own kids This is the book "You Can't Make This Story Up" [00:16:00] Fifteen Years of Seeing People Stuck Could have been wounded story or something they didn't want to talk about Sometimes they'd been dimmed in childhood or got in trouble when they got visible One foot on gas, one foot on brake even though it's for great cause and fulfilling purpose Had to figure out what the brake was [00:16:40] After That Story, Everything Changed After 15 years of stories, decided to help other creatives and entrepreneurs learn about being stuck It's not just "not organized" or "not right time" or "I'm not good writer" Those are ego's convenient way of keeping us from changing the real story That lady worked for two or three years and still rewriting it three or four years later [00:17:20] Do It In Community If our souls know that hard work is coming, of course there's resistance Answer: Write it, process it first, do it with partner who knows what you're up to Do it in community because communal experience really accelerates it [00:19:40] The 12 Month Program Structure Seven days together quarterly in person in cozy Airbnb (not conference settings) First three days: story saving work (not therapy but sort of feels like it) One day: go to spot together or do something fun in nature, let everything recalibrate Three days of work: goal is to get first chapter at first retreat [00:22:40] It's Always About Relationships When trying something new, doesn't want to do all the tasks "Where are the people? It's all for me. It's always been about relationship, not the actual to-dos" First person who changed everything: Ursula Lameris, sales coach [00:24:40] Learning From an Extrovert Connection was so natural to Ursula but not natural to Amanda (introvert) Put it in the book, had fun for five or six years in same neighborhood Made game out of networking: "Today I'm gonna sell this many contracts for you" Both experienced each other's work, just created relationships [00:25:20] Making Networking a Game Would go to networking meetings and talk each other up "Oh you need to talk to Amanda. Oh you need to talk to Ursula" That's how they both built really amazing businesses in a few years [00:28:00] Ten Years of Saving Self-Published Authors After 10 years helping individuals self-publish, people started looking at hybrid publishing Needed imprint for their position, status, industry Would try different hybrid houses, then call Amanda to come save it Couldn't believe what she was seeing [00:29:20] The 19-Year-Old's Solution Son said: "Mom, how about we just build a publishing house? We'll just figure it out" He was 19 years old Always been an entrepreneur, was hustling people at garage sale at age three or four Amanda: "I don't really have time, but if you want to, I'll partner with you" [00:30:00] Saved By Story Publishing House Son is business partner, youngest sister is creative designer Boutique hybrid publishing house A lot of people who do writing process eventually move through publishing Do education and empowerment for people ready to publish without giving all power away [00:30:40] The Bigger Impact Vision More of what's already doing, bigger impact on personal side Narrative resilience work that happens when people write in community Gets to end of retreats thinking "There are only few people in this room" Dream: expanding transformational work through personal brand, speaking, facilitation [00:31:00] Narrative Tools for Every Arena Take narrative tools and skills and infuse them into places that need them Education system, mental health space Pretty much every other arena could benefit from narrative resilience right now [00:32:00] Free Content at Foreshadows Website: savedbystory.house Forward slash foreshadows has whole bunch of free content Helps anyone at any stage from "I have an idea" to "Am I on right track for publishing?" [00:33:00] Tell Your Family How to Support Figure out how to make people around you feel safer while on amazing adventure Most family members really want to support, but if we don't tell them how, they don't know how   KEY QUOTES "We're made to belong. We're made to be in a community. And the way that we do that and have for millennia is by figuring out how to be reciprocal." - Amanda Johnson "Most of our family members really want to support, but if we don't tell them how, then they don't know how." - Amanda Johnson CONNECT WITH AMANDA JOHNSON

Ever feel like you're sprinting into the end of the year instead of intentionally stepping into it like the CEO you truly are? In this episode, Lindsay shares one of her FAVORITE year-end traditions—the CEO retreat. And no… it doesn't require a fancy hotel, a five-figure mastermind, or a flight to a tropical destination. A CEO retreat can be as simple as you + a cozy coffee shop + a peppermint latte + a notebook. What makes it magical is not the location—it's the space you give yourself to reflect, dream, plan, and realign. Lindsay breaks down the FIVE steps to hosting your own meaningful, productive, and magical CEO retreat (Disney-style ✨), complete with practical prompts and inspiration from how Disney Imagineers and leadership teams plan, evaluate, and dream up next-level experiences. ✨ In This Episode, You'll Learn: 1. How to Reflect on the Past Year Like a Disney Pro Take inventory of your wins, lessons, and flops—just like Disney evaluates which shows, snacks, or events resonated each season. 2. How to Reconnect With Your Big Vision Revisit your “why” and make sure your business still aligns with the long-term mission you're creating—because just like Walt said, Disneyland will never be finished. 3. How to Choose Your 3 CEO Priorities for the New Year Too many goals = diluted magic. Lindsay teaches you how to set focused priorities that support real momentum. 4. How to Map Out Your Profit Plan for the Year Design a simple quarterly roadmap so you know what you're launching, when you're selling, and how your offers support your revenue goals. 5. Why Fun, Magic, and Joy Should Be a CEO Strategy Sprinkling in more ease, play, and magic isn't optional—it's fuel that helps you create a sustainable business you actually love.
