When the world shut down, Maria Hatzistefanis doubled down. In this episode, I sat down with the founder of Rodial and Nip+Fab, who shared exactly how she pivoted during the pandemic, scaled her beauty empire to 35 countries, and leveraged both old-school trade shows and new-school DTC strategies to build a global brand.Maria gets honest about the reality of expanding into international markets, the unexpected complexity of going truly global, and what it takes to stay relevant in an industry built on constant reinvention. Whether you're selling skincare or software, the lessons here are universal: stay close to your customer, stay curious, and be ready to evolve.Key Takeaways:Trade shows were instrumental in Rodial's early global strategy.Digital marketing and DTC became essential after losing wholesale revenue.Maria's shift to Instagram Stories helped her connect directly with customers.Success came from listening to market-specific needs (e.g. product formulations for Asia vs. the US).Hiring local teams is non-negotiable for successful international expansion.

US-Präsident Donald Trump hat den Aufbau einer spezialisierten Einheit innerhalb der Nationalgarde angeordnet, die zur «Wahrung von Sicherheit und Ordnung» in Washington eingesetzt werden soll. Das Verteidigungsministerium müsse die Truppe umgehend aufstellen, ausbilden und ausrüsten, heisst es in dem Erlass. Zudem sollen landesweit Nationalgardisten für einen schnellen Einsatz gegen «zivile Unruhen» bereitstehen – einschliesslich einer ständig verfügbaren Eingreiftruppe.Trump kündigte gleichzeitig an, die Nationalgarde auch in andere Städte zu entsenden, die von Demokraten regiert werden. Besonders abgesehen hat er es offenbar auf Chicago, eine demokratische Hochburg im Bundesstaat Illinois. Dessen Bürgermeister Brandon Johnson lehnt solche Massnahmen als «undemokratisch und verfassungswidrig» ab. Was bezweckt Donald Trump mit dem Einsatz der Nationalgarde? Geht es tatsächlich um Sicherheit, oder verfolgt der US-Präsident eine politische Agenda? Tina Kempin Reuter, Professorin für Politikwissenschaft, erläutert in der neuen Folge des USA-Podcasts «Alles klar, Amerika?» die unklare rechtliche Basis, auf der Trumps Erlasse zur Nationalgarde beruhen. Und sie berichtet, wie es mit der Kriminalität aussieht in Birmingham, Alabama, ihrer Heimatstadt und weshalb schlechte Quartiere über Jahrzehnte schlecht bleiben. Host: Christof MüngerProduzent: Noah FendAlle Infos zum erwähnten Kombi-Abo-Angebot von Tages-Anzeiger und New York Times: amerika.tagesanzeiger.ch Mehr USA-Berichterstattung finden Sie auf unserer Webseite und in den Apps.

I've spoken to hundreds of founders over the years, but Melissa Snover's story hits different. This week, I sat down with the force behind Scripted and Nourished, two businesses that are fundamentally changing the way we approach health. From reverse-engineering 3D printers to developing patent-protected technology for personalised vitamins, Melissa didn't just “solve a problem,” she created an entirely new category. If you're building a product, raising capital, or trying to scale without losing your startup DNA, this episode has the blueprint.Melissa breaks down how she raised a record-breaking £2.7M as a solo female founder, what it really takes to create IP-driven businesses, and how to hold onto the startup mindset while navigating serious growth, governance, and FDA audits.Whether you're knee-deep in fundraising or just sick of generic supplements, this one is well worth a listen.Key Takeaways:You don't need permission to disrupt. Melissa taught herself mechanical engineering and G-code after the world's biggest 3D printing companies said “can't be done.”Raising capital isn't about luck. It's about knowing the language, doing the research, and avoiding time-wasting investor meetings.Culture is a growth engine. Every member of Melissa's team, from factory workers to C-suite, has equity, because ownership breeds commitment.The startup mindset matters. Even with 150 employees and FDA compliance, Melissa's team rewards Friday Fails. Innovation thrives when failure is normalised.Personalised health isn't a gimmick. It's the future of how we'll consume, treat, and take care of ourselves.

Best-Selling Author & Distinguished Carter G. Woodson book award presented to exemplary books written for children and young people each year at the NCSS Annual Conference.My Show looks  at the Important Role Children Payed in The Fight for Civil Rights in America. I consider it a Privilege to cover the True Foot Soldiers who were physically THERE during the Events that Changed History in American Civil Rights to All.My Guest is author Robert H. Mayer author of the book "In the Name of Emmett Till"Children played a significant role in Birmingham's crucial civil rights struggle, and this stirring history of the movement, with many photos, news reports, and quotes from all sides, emphasizes the connections between the young people's power and that of the big leaders. Martin Luther King called Birmingham the most segregated city in America, and his Letter from Birmingham Jail is quoted at length. But when the adults' protest lost momentum, the leaders' decision to call on young people galvanized the movement--Hazel RochmanRobert H. Mayer is the award-winning author of When the Children Marched: The Birmingham Civil Rights Movement and the editor of The Civil Rights Act of 1964. As a teacher, Mayer's passion continues to be making history relevant and accessible to young people. His time spent in Jackson, Canton, and McComb, Mississippi, as well as meeting scholars and activists integral to the civil rights movement, fueled the desire to write In the Name of Emmett Till. He lives in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, with his wife Jan, where he writes, teaches, and tutors youth in a local middle school.The 1955 murder of Emmett Till in Mississippi is widely remembered as one of the most horrible lynching's in American history. African American children old enough that year to be aware personally felt the terror of Till's murder. These children, however, would rise up against the culture that made Till's death possible. Over the next decade, from the violent Woolworth's lunch-counter sit-ins in Jackson to the school walkouts of McComb, the young people of Mississippi picketed, boycotted, organized, spoke out, and marched, determined to reveal the vulnerability of black bodies and the ugly nature of the world they lived in. These children changed that world.© 2025 Building Abundant Success!!2025 All Rights ReservedJoin Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASSpot Me on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23baAmazon Music ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy:  https://tinyurl.com/BASAud   

Alle Infos zum erwähnten Kombi-Abo-Angebot von Tages-Anzeiger und New York Times: amerika.tagesanzeiger.ch***US-Präsident Donald Trump hat kurz nach Amtsantritt per Dekret verfügt, dass das nationale Bildungsministerium abgeschafft werden soll. Er will die Hoheit über Bildungsfragen vollständig den amerikanischen Bundesstaaten überlassen. Ausserdem bekämpft Trump – wie im Wahlkampf versprochen – die Diversitätsprogramme, die viele seiner Anhängerinnen und Anhänger ablehnen. Die Schule ist deshalb eine Kulturkampfzone.Die Bildung ist in den USA seit langem ein politisches Streitthema. Die Republikaner möchten vermehrt Privatschulen fördern, die Demokraten treten für die öffentlichen Schulen ein. Eltern stehen vor der Wahl, ob sie ihre Kinder in eine öffentliche oder private Schule schicken sollen. Sofern sie sich diese Wahl überhaupt leisten können: Private Schulen sind teuer, bis zu 50'000 Dollar im Jahr. Aber auch bei den öffentlichen Schulen gibt es grosse Qualitätsunterschiede. Wohlhabende Gegenden profitieren von höheren Steuereinnahmen und haben deshalb besser ausgestattete Schulen.Welche Werte ein Kind in der Schule vermittelt bekommt, hängt deshalb auch davon ab, wo es zur Schule geht: In einem Bundesstaat, der von Demokraten geführt wird, werden eher liberale Inhalte vermittelt, während in einem republikanischen Staat konservative Sichtweisen dominieren.Tina Kempin Reuter, Professorin für Politikwissenschaft in Birmingham, Alabama, ist Mutter von zwei schulpflichtigen Kindern. In der neuen Folge von «Alles klar, Amerika?» berichtet sie, was Trumps Bildungspolitik für Auswirkungen hat, ob sie ihre Buben in eine öffentliche oder private Schule schickt und wie ihr älterer Sohn den ersten Schultag erlebt hat.

Ellen Skrmetti was born and raised in Ripley, Mississippi, not far from Memphis, in a family that was devoted to the Southern Baptist church. For Ellen, a person of faith but also an aspiring comedian, this turned out to be great source material, as did all the characters in her small Southern town. During the pandemic, she started posting videos that all started with “Hey Jesus, It's Me,” and then she would launch into gossipy monologues about her neighbors, critiques of a cousin's potato salad, or—famously—what would have happened if Queen Elizabeth had died in the South. Now she's got a new book that takes its name from those viral hits and expands it a bit: Hey, Jesus, It's Me: I Have Questions, Comments, and Concerns. Ellen lives in Birmingham now, so we got to do this one in the Southern Living offices, and she was just as charming and funny in person as she is on Instagram. Sid talks to Ellen about why her yeast rolls are controversial, what it's been like getting back to standup after a fruitful detour through social media, and having what she calls a “true Southern church lady for a mother.” For more info visit: southernliving.com/biscuitsandjam Biscuits & Jam is produced by: Sid Evans - Editor-in-Chief, Southern Living Krissy Tiglias - GM, Southern Living Lottie Leymarie - Executive Producer Michael Onufrak - Audio Engineer & Editor/Producer Jeremiah Lee McVay - Producer Learn more about your ad choices.

My guest today is Dr. Kenda Rigdon. Dr. Rigdon is a microbiologist with a PhD in microbiology and virology from the University of Alabama at Birmingham. Drawing from her expertise, she explores how the gut's microbial ecosystem—comprising bacteria, yeast like Candida and Malassezia, and other microbes—interacts with genetic and epigenetic factors to influence Autism. Dr. Rigdon highlights the critical role of the birthing process, particularly how vaginal delivery seeds a newborn's gut with beneficial microbes like lactobacillus, setting the stage for healthy development in the first three years. She also delves into how yeast overgrowth, nutrient competition (e.g., for tryptophan), and environmental factors like manganese and glyphosate exposure can disrupt this delicate ecosystem, potentially exacerbating autism-related symptoms.Dr. Rigdon shares insights into the surprising links between melanin, Neanderthal DNA, and Autism. She discusses how specific genetic mutations, such as MTHFR and PAI1, can intersect with Autism. Additionally, she connects melanin production—potentially influenced by gut yeast like Malassezia—to neurological health, drawing parallels with conditions like Parkinson's. By viewing the gut as a dynamic ecosystem shaped by birth, diet, and early development, this episode offers a fresh perspective on Autism's microbial roots and practical implications for health, urging listeners to reconsider modern birthing practices and dietary choices in fostering a balanced gut microbiome.Dr. Rigdon X https://x.com/KendaRigdonDaylight Computer Companyuse "autism" for $25 off athttps://buy.daylightcomputer.com/RYAN03139Chroma Iight Devicesuse "autism" for 10% discount athttps://getchroma.co/?ref=autism0:00 Dr. Kenda Rigdon1:14 Journey into Microbiology4:08 The Gut's Ecosystem8:21 Genetics, Autism, & The Microbial Connection13:08 MTHFR & PAI1: Homocysteine, Methionine, Folate20:21 The Role of Yeast in Health & Disease; Serotonin, Candida26:39 The Fight for Tryptophan31:14 Impact of Birthing Method on Gut Health (!)33:13 Modern versus Evolutionary Births, Breastfeeding; Oxygen, Acidity, PH37:15 Melanin, Cell Protection, Neanderthal DNA, Autism40:46 Neuromelanin; Biological Energy, Melanocytes43:20 Neanderthal's & Modern Disease & Environments47:23 Microbes in the Brain53:21 Manganese & Gut Health58:22 Gut-Brain Connection & Microbial Balance01:03:19 Early Gut Health & Development; Modern Insults01:07:21 Future Direction in Gut Health & Kenda's Passion & LoveX: https://x.com/rps47586YT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGxEzLKXkjppo3nqmpXpzuAemail: info.fromthespectrum@gmail.com

Today Mark begins teaching in the first chapter of Isaiah. The first word of this titanic of a book is "vision." Isaiah is seeing something that goes beyond the normal activity of seeing. You and I are looking at the world around us, but seeing God's perspective on the world is a whole deeper level. We're talking about the difference between looking and seeing.The book of Isaiah is a revelation. This book is not an act of Isaiah's own self-discovery. This book is a vision. And it's built off of that.So, when you are reading Isaiah, you're reading the revealed word of the living God as He understands the world and His promises to humanity. >>Watch on YouTubeDr. Mark Gignilliat is professor of divinity at Beeson Divinity School, where he teaches courses in Old Testament and Hebrew. Mark also serves as theologian in residence at St. Peter's Anglican Church in Birmingham. Dr. Gignilliat is married to Naomi, and they have four children.

(ESV)Isaiah 49:1–16 (Listen) The Servant of the Lord 49:1   Listen to me, O coastlands,    and give attention, you peoples from afar.  The LORD called me from the womb,    from the body of my mother he named my name.2   He made my mouth like a sharp sword;    in the shadow of his hand he hid me;  he made me a polished arrow;    in his quiver he hid me away.3   And he said to me, “You are my servant,    Israel, in whom I will be glorified.”14   But I said, “I have labored in vain;    I have spent my strength for nothing and vanity;  yet surely my right is with the LORD,    and my recompense with my God.” 5   And now the LORD says,    he who formed me from the womb to be his servant,  to bring Jacob back to him;    and that Israel might be gathered to him—  for I am honored in the eyes of the LORD,    and my God has become my strength—6   he says:  “It is too light a thing that you should be my servant    to raise up the tribes of Jacob    and to bring back the preserved of Israel;  I will make you as a light for the nations,    that my salvation may reach to the end of the earth.” 7   Thus says the LORD,    the Redeemer of Israel and his Holy One,  to one deeply despised, abhorred by the nation,    the servant of rulers:  “Kings shall see and arise;    princes, and they shall prostrate themselves;  because of the LORD, who is faithful,    the Holy One of Israel, who has chosen you.” The Restoration of Israel 8   Thus says the LORD:  “In a time of favor I have answered you;    in a day of salvation I have helped you;  I will keep you and give you    as a covenant to the people,  to establish the land,    to apportion the desolate heritages,9   saying to the prisoners, ‘Come out,'    to those who are in darkness, ‘Appear.'  They shall feed along the ways;    on all bare heights shall be their pasture;10   they shall not hunger or thirst,    neither scorching wind nor sun shall strike them,  for he who has pity on them will lead them,    and by springs of water will guide them.11   And I will make all my mountains a road,    and my highways s...

The kickoff of college football, blessedly, is just around the corner, something I've been waiting for since January and the end of the last college football season. College football is jam-packed with rivalries, and one of the most heated among them is the rivalry between the University of Alabama Crimson Tide and the Auburn Tigers. Both teams are located, of course, in Alabama, where I lived—Birmingham specifically—for nearly 11 years, so this is a rivalry I know well. Their annual matchup every November is called the Iron Bowl, and today on the show I have decorated sportswriter Jay Busbee here to talk about it and his new book, Iron in the Blood: How the Alabama vs. Auburn Rivalry Shaped the Soul of the South, which is out August 26. Today on the show Jay and I discuss how vicious the hatred actually is between these two teams, why the Iron Bowl is called as such, what rivalries mean to college football, the infamous Kick Six play and whether Jay thinks that is the best Iron Bowl moment of all time, what his favorite tradition is from each school—both schools are filled with traditions—and so much more. By the way, this book is a great companion piece to Netflix's new docuseries SEC Football: Any Given Saturday, which my husband and I just binged. Jay is a senior writer for Yahoo Sports and has covered the Olympics, the Super Bowl, the Masters, the World Series, the Daytona 500, the Kentucky Derby, and, you guessed it, the Iron Bowl. He hosts the travel and history show Home Turn for NASCAR Studios and has a Substack about Southern culture, “Flashlight & A Biscuit.” In addition to Iron in the Blood, Jay has written the book Earnhardt Nation, a biography of NASCAR's Earnhardt family, and, according to his biography, he “worships at the church of SEC football.” He has written everywhere from ⁠ESPN.com⁠ to Esquire, USA Today, The Washington Post, and more.⁠Iron in the Blood: How the Alabama vs. Auburn Rivalry Shaped the Soul of the South⁠ by Jay Busbee

Kevin Kijewski, an attorney from Birmingham, Michigan, who is seeking the Republican nomination for Michigan Attorney General, lays out his stance on three key issues. He warns that ranked-choice voting in Michigan would be a misguided experiment with potentially harmful consequences for the state's electoral process. He also champions the Citizen-Only Voting Amendment, stressing its importance to protect the integrity of Michigan's democracy. In addition, Kijewski raises alarms about China's American land acquisitions, calling them a direct threat to Michigan's future.

We chat about Louisville's peer cities on the Access Louisville podcast this week.Louisville Business First Reporter Stephen P. Schmidt recently wrapped up a story on the topic. While the list of Louisville's peers definitely varies depending on who's being asked a few things were clear. First, Cincinnati, Indianapolis or Nashville, Tennessee — who we often like to compare ourselves to — are not really our peers because they are much bigger now than they used to be. Instead Memphis, Tennessee, Birmingham, Alabama and others are closer comparisons to Louisville. During the show, we also discuss some ideas that Louisville could steal from other cities. Removing I-64 from the Downtown Louisville riverfront is one suggestion we come up with, as other cities have had success opening their riverfronts. Another suggestion we land on is a riverwalk in the vein of San Antonio — something Louisville has looked at in the past, including on a recent Greater Louisville Inc. trip.In the second half of the show, we talk about Kentucky's resurgent manufacturing economy. Schmidt recently visited Ford Motor Co.'s Louisville Assembly Plant to cover news of a new electric vehicle manufacturing process that's being launched in support of Ford's upcoming (and yet unnamed) midsize EV truck. We talk about how Ford's launch compares with what Toyota is doing at its plant in Georgetown, Kentucky. During the show, I reference a recent interview I did with the president of Toyota Motor Manufacturing Kentucky, which you can read here, in which we discussed EVs.Schmidt also visited GE Appliances's Louisville operation to check out a recently unveiled manufacturing line there. And we chat about the news that Corning will begin manufacturing 100% of iPhone and Apple Watch glass at its facility in Harrodsburg, Kentucky. Does this mean that the manufacturing industry is finally making a comeback? We chat about it on the show. Access Louisville is a weekly podcast from Louisville Business First. It's available on popular podcast services including Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

In this Bite-sized episode of Screw It Just DO It, I speak with Magnus Grimeland, founder and CEO of Antler, one of the fastest-scaling early-stage VC platforms in the world.Magnus has helped Antler grow to 21 offices across six continents, backing nearly 400 startups in the process. But this conversation focuses on something deeper than capital: community. He shares how they built a global founder network that supports collaboration, peer learning, and talent access, all with a hyper-local approach tailored to each region.You'll hear how they've used tech infrastructure to support remote founders, what role community plays in startup success, and how you can apply the same thinking to scale your own ecosystem, whether you're a founder or investor.It's a sharp, strategic look at what it really takes to scale something global without losing the intimacy and value of local connections.Key Takeaways:Founder support is more than funding, it's infrastructureCommunity building is critical to startup successTech-enabled networks can scale trust and collaborationHyper-local execution wins in global expansionStartup ecosystems thrive on shared learning, not competition

This is one of our favourite interviews EVER! In this very special LIVE edition of Brand Growth Heroes, recorded at Bread & Jam Fest 2025, Fiona Fitz sits down in front of a live audience with the absolutely brilliant and hilariously honest Juliet Barratt, co-founder of the category-defining sports nutrition brand, Grenade. Juliet shares the fab story of how she and then-partner Al Barrett took Grenade from the back of a big night out in Birmingham to the shelves of Tesco, WHSmith and petrol stations across the UK, and ultimately to a £200M exit to Mondelez - without ever compromising on what made them different.If this episode inspires you to think about new ways to drive business growth, PLEASE could you click FOLLOW or SUBSCRIBE on your favourite podcast app and leave a review, AND share it with a fellow founder - it could help them too!The conversation covers so much - from how branding (and “weirdness!”) can be a superpower, to the moment they realised their “retire-on-a-beach” plan was delusional, to driving a tank into BodyPower Expo (yes, really) to get noticed by GNC. Juliet also opens up about how being “all in” meant no days off for four years, about hiring people who weren't “knobs,” and about what it really felt like when the money landed in her bank account after the deal closed, and interestingly, why it WASN'T the moment of glory people imagine!She also shares her views on today's funding-obsessed food and drink ecosystem, and why she believes too many founders are chasing other people's stories instead of writing their own.Wait for it...Juliet also shares her (perhaps controversial?!) views on the 'female founder' movement - we'd love to know what you think (if you're listening on Spotify, you can comment below!)Juliet's energy is infectious, her insight razor-sharp, and her advice unmissable for any challenger brand founder.And yes, we talk about the Oreo bar. (Don't eat five a day. Just… don't.) PS: Don't miss the audience questions at the end. Golden nuggets tsunami! Enjoy.Useful links:Connect with Juliet Barratt on LinkedInFollow Grenade on LinkedInMore about Bread & Jam FestivalFollow Brand Growth Heroes on LinkedInConnect with BGH host Fiona Fitz on LinkedIn============================================================Thanks to Brand Growth Heroes' podcast sponsor - Joelson, the commercial law firm=============================================================If you're a founder, you already know how much of your energy goes into building the perfect product, creating standout branding and connecting with your consumers.But don't forget that scaling a CPG business also comes with a maze of legal complexities that can make or break your business journey.
