In this episode of REIA Radio, hosts Owen Dashner, Ted Kaasch, and Denlis Bertrand jump into a laid-back Real Estate Rundown that still hits the real stuff investors deal with: shifting strategies, managing (or escaping) operational chaos, and making decisions that feel great on paper… until the bill shows up.They kick things off reflecting on their recent interview with Kelly Klein—what stood out, what got people fired up, and why there's probably more to unpack in a follow-up. From there, the conversation turns into a real-time snapshot of where each of them is at right now. Ted talks through major transitions, including moving on from the original studio space and what it looks like to step away from one season of investing and lean into the next. Owen shares what's happening in the trenches—leasing, vacancies, big property expenses, and the kind of problem-solving you don't see on Instagram. Denlis gives an update on his move into buying a videography business, and the guys get into the not-so-glamorous details of protecting a deal the right way.Along the way, they talk about patience, timing, and why momentum can mess with your head—especially if you've built your identity around always having “the next thing” in motion. It's part shop talk, part therapy session, and part reminder that growth usually comes with a few headaches attached.If you enjoyed the episode, follow REIA Radio so you don't miss the next one—and if you've been listening for a while, leaving a quick review helps more investors find the show.You can Join the Omaha REIA - https://omahareia.com/join-todayOmaha REIA on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/groups/OmahaREIACheck out the National REIA - https://nationalreia.org/ Find Ted Kaasch at www.tedkaasch.com Owen Dashner on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/owen.dashner Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/odawg2424/ Red Ladder Property Solutions - www.sellmyhouseinomahafast.com Liquid Lending Solutions - www.liquidlendingsolutions.com Owen's Blogs - www.otowninvestor.com www.reiquicktips.com Propstream - https://trial.propstreampro.com/reianebraska/Timber Creek Virtual - https://timbercreekvirtual.com/services/MagicDoor - https://magicdoor.com/reia/...

In this episode of Bible Reading and Coffee Drinking, we begin a new series in the book of Daniel by diving into chapter 1. Daniel and his friends are taken into Babylon, pressured to conform, and faced with a choice between compromise and faithfulness. Even in a foreign land and under intense pressure, they choose to honor God—and God honors their obedience. This chapter sets the tone for the entire book, reminding us how to stand firm in our faith while living in a culture that doesn't share our values.

What does it take to turn around a beloved brand during a "retail apocalypse" AND a global pandemic? Sharon Price John, President and CEO of Build-A-Bear Workshop, did exactly that—leading the company to five consecutive years of record results while staying true to its mission of "adding a little more heart to life."In this episode, I speak with Sharon Price John, who's spent over 30 years shaping iconic brands—from Barbie and Transformers at Mattel and Hasbro to Stride Rite footwear, and now Build-A-Bear. Since 2013, Sharon has completely reinvented Build-A-Bear's business model, expanding beyond malls, scaling e-commerce, entering entertainment, and growing the consumer base so that 40% of sales now come from teens and adults.Here's the fascinating part: Sharon spent years underestimating herself. She worked McDonald's drive-throughs, Lee Jeans night shifts, flower shops—and kept thinking she was about to hit the wall. High school was easy, so college would be where she'd fail. College was fine, so her first job would be it. Got her MBA at Columbia thinking, "This is where it ends." It never did. She finally realized she'd been shooting too low the entire time.When Sharon joined Build-A-Bear, the brand had mid-90s awareness but was struggling. She saw the equity was trapped—stuck in malls, stuck targeting only kids. Her vision? Transform it from a mall retailer into a branded IP company with multiple revenue streams. Then COVID hit. They shut down 100% of stores in 48 hours. But Sharon's team pivoted fast, moved with imperfect information, and came out strong.How to Reinvent Like Sharon:You're not supposed to know everything about the next step—that's the point. If you knew everything, it wouldn't be growth. Embrace not knowing.Stop catastrophizing—what's the actual worst that can happen? Sharon was terrified to move to New York. Worst case? She'd come back exactly where she was. Do this exercise every time.The stories you tell yourself are usually wrong. Stop carrying disempowering baggage from past "failures" that probably aren't even based in reality.Learn how your entire company makes money. Be curious. Visit every department. When you understand the interconnections, you can connect dots others miss.When you're young, you're recoverable. Taking risks early is strategic. Stop letting fear keep you from trying.Build trust before you need it. Sharon's team could pivot during COVID because they'd already built credibility through years of solid strategy.Connect with Sharon: Find Build-A-Bear at buildabear.comRead "Stories & Heart" on Amazon at https://a.co/d/3qSQcnKConnect with Sharon on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/sharon-price-john-26239820THE RE:INVENTION EXCHANGE - for more Inspired Content, Blogs, Podcasts, RE:INVENTION Virtual Chats, or to buy a copy of my book RE:INVENT YOUR LIFE!

In this episode of REIA Radio, recorded live at an Omaha REIA event, Megan Ahern — aka “The Tatty Investor” — lays out why strategic networking is one of the biggest cheat codes in real estate.

She also shares practical ways to stay in touch, show up with value, and learn faster by getting in the right rooms with the right people — so your business grows because your network grows.If this hit home, subscribe to REIA Radio, leave a quick review, and send this to one investor friend who says they “need more connections” but never follows up with anyone.

Eight years ago, Alison Gieschen and her husband — a merchant marine — made a deliberate decision most people never will. They planned a ten-year circumnavigation of the world and committed to it. Not on a whim. On purpose. In this episode, Alison joins me from a friend's boat in Bora Bora — her own Wi-Fi wasn't cooperating, and instead of forcing it, she chose not to intrude on the show. That alone tells you a lot about who she is. We talk about what life underway actually looks like — not the romantic highlight-reel version. From the reality that there's no such thing as downtime on a boat, to one-hour dinghy rides and five-mile walks just to get groceries, to sailing through COVID when they could keep moving but no ports would let them in. We get into being stuck in Ireland with the pubs closed, why the sailing community is as tight as it is, her favorite place so far — the Corinth Canal — and the hardest places they've been and why. Alison also shares why documenting the journey through blogs and books matters, her love of scuba diving (including an upcoming trip diving with sharks), and yes… why she wanted a chicken as a pet — with a diaper — and why her husband shut that idea down immediately. This conversation isn't about escape. It's about commitment, discipline, and perspective earned mile by mile. Still underway.

Our critical review of The Secrets of Greek Mysticism by George Lizos, and why this book is so problematic in its ideologies, from starseed propaganda to Mr. Lizos's rejection of scholarship.Why have online “influencers” promoted this book to their audiences? Many of their critiques focus on surface-level issues, such as the absence of Hades or Hekate, Xenia and Dionysus while missing the far more serious problem: this book aligns itself with New Age propaganda and ancient alien beliefs, ultimately leading people astray in their understanding of ancient Greek history, mythology, and ancient Greek religion.Chapters:(00:00) Why are we doing this?(08:04) The starseed propaganda(18:55) Claims all scholars are wrong?(29:35) Greek gods are love and light?(36:03) Zeus isn't a monarch, ascension and soul contracts?(41:35) Misogynistic view on goddesses(44:50) Artemis is “control”?(49:41) Hera is the maiden, mother and crone?(53:12) Hestia is boring and blasé?(58:24) The apple of discord and his theology?(1:00:14) Where is the “mysticism”?(1:09:15) Calling out the “influencers” that promoted this bookCalling all devotees to Styx and Bones that are content creators!

Ted and Owen recap a goal-planning lunch session featuring Brandon Turner, Collin Schwartz, and Vince Gettings (Titan Group), and get real about what actually works when setting goals: process goals vs. outcome goals. Because “lose 20 pounds” isn't a plan—it's a wish. Ted breaks down his approach: start with the big vision, then work it down into 90-day goals, monthly targets, weekly priorities, and daily “rocks” that keep momentum moving even when life gets chaotic.They also hit the constant entrepreneur tug-of-war: building what you love (community, podcast, events) vs. building what pays the bills—plus why some “loss leader” work can still be worth it if it fuels the bigger mission. They wrap with what's coming next, including the REIA Mastery Series event on January 16 with five keynote speakers, a full-day format, and 6 Nebraska real estate CE credit hours for licensed agents. The episode closes with a preview of an upcoming interview with local investor and business owner Jay Miralles—the kind of convo that would've gone two hours if they didn't have a hard stop.If you keep saying, “I can't delegate because training takes too long,” start screen-recording what you do (and why you do it).

Jasmine Greenwald jumps on REIA Radio to share how she went from art professor to real estate investor—and why that shift made sense once she got serious about freedom, ownership, and building something that lasts. We talk about getting started, taking calculated risks, and what it's like running rentals when you're not down the street to “just stop by real quick” (because that's how people end up with a new full-time job called Stress).Then we get into the real stuff: long-distance management, short-term vs. long-term rentals, insurance headaches, and contractor relationships—aka the part of real estate nobody brags about, but everyone eventually learns the hard way. Jasmine shares what she's focused on next and the mindset that keeps her moving forward even when a project gets messy.If you got value from this episode, follow/subscribe to REIA Radio, leave a quick review, and send this episode to a friend who still believes every contractor will “be there tomorrow.” You can Join the Omaha REIA - https://omahareia.com/join-todayOmaha REIA on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/groups/OmahaREIACheck out the National REIA - https://nationalreia.org/ Find Ted Kaasch at www.tedkaasch.com Owen Dashner on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/owen.dashner Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/odawg2424/ Red Ladder Property Solutions - www.sellmyhouseinomahafast.com Liquid Lending Solutions - www.liquidlendingsolutions.com Owen's Blogs - www.otowninvestor.com www.reiquicktips.com Propstream - https://trial.propstreampro.com/reianebraska/Timber Creek Virtual - https://timbercreekvirtual.com/services/MagicDoor - https://magicdoor.com/reia/...

SummaryIn this conversation, Benjamin Lee discusses the importance of timing, belief in oneself, and the power of ideas through the lens of Walt Disney's journey with Davy Crockett and Fess Parker's acting career.

The discussion also highlights the significance of collaboration and seizing opportunities when they arise.TakeawaysWalt Disney's ideas often took years to materialize, showing the importance of patience.Fess Parker believed in himself and set a three-year timeframe to pursue acting.Timing can be crucial; sometimes, the right opportunity comes at the last moment.Collaboration can lead to unexpected successes, as seen with the Davy Crockett song.Even under pressure, creativity can flourish; write that song or lyric.Pursuing dreams requires taking action and putting oneself in the right environment.Ideas may not be fully realized at first, but persistence can lead to greatness.The journey of Davy Crockett illustrates the power of storytelling in entertainment.Success can come from unexpected places; be open to new opportunities.Encouragement to read and learn from others' experiences, like in Richard Snow's book.Chapters00:00 The Power of Ideas and Timing10:34 Believing in Yourself and Taking ActionNewsletter, Books, and Blogs: https://benjaminlee.blogI Can Do Podcast: https://icandopodcast.comBooks Mentioned:1.

What it takes to get energy from where it is produced to where it is consumed was at the heart of many of RBN's most popular blogs in 2025. But there were also the three T's: Trump, tariffs and turbulence.
They kick things off with some end-of-year chaos and friendly trash talk, then shift into a serious update on a newly purchased Omaha property that's being repositioned into long- and mid-term rentals. From there, the conversation turns into a mix of strategy, war stories, and lessons learned the hard way.Owen and Ted break down hard money and private lending—what it is, why it matters, and how understanding the rules (and structuring deals correctly) can open up opportunities without you doing every project yourself. They also get into marketing that actually moves the needle, including why consistency beats “perfect,” and why authentic content tends to win over polished, robotic posts.On the operations side, they unpack the parts nobody puts on Instagram: tenants trying to bypass the property manager, tech issues that turn into lockouts, neighbor drama that escalates fast, and why having boundaries (and the right team) keeps you from being on-call 24/7.They wrap with a quick debate on Airbnbs vs hotels, plus a teaser for an upcoming episode featuring an out-of-state short-term rental story packed with insurance and contractor headaches.If you got value from this episode, follow the show and leave a 5-star written review—it helps more investors find the podcast.You can Join the Omaha REIA - https://omahareia.com/join-todayOmaha REIA on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/groups/OmahaREIACheck out the National REIA - https://nationalreia.org/ Find Ted Kaasch at www.tedkaasch.com Owen Dashner on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/owen.dashner Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/odawg2424/ Red Ladder Property Solutions - www.sellmyhouseinomahafast.com Liquid Lending Solutions - www.liquidlendingsolutions.com Owen's Blogs - www.otowninvestor.com www.reiquicktips.com Propstream - https://trial.propstreampro.com/reianebraska/Timber Creek Virtual - https://timbercreekvirtual.com/services/MagicDoor - https://magicdoor.com/reia/...

In this episode, we sit down with Jason Woodward and unpack a real-life investing journey that starts with flipping boats (yes, boats) and turns into building a real estate portfolio while still working a full-time W-2. Jason shares how learning the basics through coaching and community gave him the confidence to finally take action—and why the “right room” can speed up your timeline by years.Jason walks through the early deals—including a first flip that turned into a brutal (but useful) education: old houses, plaster and lath surprises, scope creep, hard money pressure, and the reality of paying for mistakes. He breaks down how he funded projects (including hard money and a 401k loan), what he'd do differently now, and how his strategy evolved from heavy DIY to “do less, hire more.”We also get into what it looks like investing in today's market—when properties don't fly off the shelf in a weekend anymore. Jason explains why multiple exit strategies matter (flip, rental, midterm rental, etc.), how he handled a property that sat longer than expected, and what features can quietly kill demand even after a good rehab. And then there's the townhome curveball: a deal that should've closed… until an HOA insurance problem nuked the finish line.Along the way, there are some classic REIA Radio moments—like randomly getting a call from the very coach being credited for the entire journey… while recording live. Because apparently the universe has a sense of humor.You can Join the Omaha REIA - https://omahareia.com/join-todayOmaha REIA on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/groups/OmahaREIACheck out the National REIA - https://nationalreia.org/ Find Ted Kaasch at www.tedkaasch.com Owen Dashner on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/owen.dashner Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/odawg2424/ Red Ladder Property Solutions - www.sellmyhouseinomahafast.com Liquid Lending Solutions - www.liquidlendingsolutions.com Owen's Blogs - www.otowninvestor.com www.reiquicktips.com Propstream - https://trial.propstreampro.com/reianebraska/Timber Creek Virtual - https://timbercreekvirtual.com/services/MagicDoor - https://magicdoor.com/reia/...

Emphasizing that the key difference between the ordinary and extraordinary is God's divine touch, Johnson discusses the critical importance of discipleship, fasting, and prayer. He underscores Jesus' ultimate act of submission in the Garden of Gethsemane and how followers are called to be like Jesus in saying, 'Thy will be done.'

The video opens with Shodankeh Johnson, a renowned Christian leader from Sierra Leone, Africa, sharing extraordinary testimonies about the transformative power of prayer and fasting. Shodankeh emphasizes that these spiritual disciplines can turn ordinary people into extraordinary individuals who can accomplish God's work. Shodankeh illustrates his points by sharing compelling stories from his own life and ministry. He explains how submission to God through prayer and fasting can open doors for disciple-making and transforming communities. His stories include instances where prayer and fasting led to miraculous conversions, including a confrontation with a militant leader who eventually became a Christian and now serves as part of Shodankeh's ministry. Shodankeh argues that disciple-making involves three levels of submission to God: the disciple-maker, the lost, and the spirits. He highlights how prayer and fasting are active ingredients that empower these stages. Through fasting and prayer, ordinary men and women have become powerful instruments for God's work in Sierra Leone, leading to entire villages and tribes coming to know Jesus. As Shodankeh's session concludes, Dave Clayton and Mandisa join the conversation. Dave Clayton, a pastor from the Nashville area, shares his journey of integrating prayer and fasting into his church's practice. He narrates their struggles and triumphs, emphasizing how persistent prayer and fasting have begun to catalyze a spiritual shift within their community. Dave explains his vision to mobilize churches across Nashville to pray and fast over every name, neighborhood, and nation represented in the city. His goal is to spark a broader movement of prayer and fasting throughout America. Mandisa, known for her work in the Discipleship First Tribe and her music career, talks about her realization of the need for desperation in prayer. She compares her experiences in American churches with those she observed during international tours, noting a stark contrast in the desperate fervor for prayer and fasting. She is moved to challenge herself and others to cultivate a similar level of spiritual desperation. Throughout the video, the speakers discuss cultural differences and the challenges faced by the American church in adopting these spiritual disciplines. Shodankeh explains that fasting and prayer are disruptive, yet necessary for true disciple-making. The leaders highlight the importance of humility, learning from the global church, and bringing a disruptive disciple-making mindset to North America. In conclusion, this video is a stirring reminder of the power of prayer and fasting in disciple-making. It challenges viewers to reconsider their spiritual practices and embrace a deeper, more committed walk with God for the sake of personal transformation and broader community impact.

Jay and Ashley are back nearly 200 episodes after their first appearance, and they don't sugarcoat what the last few years have looked like: raising a big family, trying to run a business together, and realizing how fast “life stuff” can spill into “work stuff.”They get real about what's working right now in the market—Zillow Preferred leads, staying in front of past clients, and being consistent even when motivation is nowhere to be found.Then the conversation pivots into mentorship and networking: how asking for a simple coffee (or cigar) can change your entire trajectory, plus a “failing forward” segment that turns a painful multifamily experience into a legit lesson. They wrap with what it all comes back to: family support, unconditional love, and building something that lasts.Check out the show and more episodes at @REIARadioThis episode is sponsored by Entrepreneur Addict — get started at entrepreneuraddict.com/REIA.Where to find Jay & AshleyInstagram: Ashley Jackson WellsFacebook: jcapelYou can Join the Omaha REIA - https://omahareia.com/join-todayOmaha REIA on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/groups/OmahaREIACheck out the National REIA - https://nationalreia.org/ Find Ted Kaasch at www.tedkaasch.com Owen Dashner on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/owen.dashner Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/odawg2424/ Red Ladder Property Solutions - www.sellmyhouseinomahafast.com Liquid Lending Solutions - www.liquidlendingsolutions.com Owen's Blogs - www.otowninvestor.com www.reiquicktips.com Propstream - https://trial.propstreampro.com/reianebraska/Timber Creek Virtual - https://timbercreekvirtual.com/services/MagicDoor - https://magicdoor.com/reia/...

In this episode, we break down what's really going on with New York City's housing crisis — from strict rent control and proposed rent freezes to a billion-dollar bailout for “distressed” landlords. We talk about how rising insurance, taxes, and maintenance costs crush owners when income is capped, and what happens when the city steps in with taxpayer-funded rescue plans. Is this sustainable, or are we just kicking the can down the road? Then we bring it back home and look at how big city projects — like Omaha's new railcar line — can quietly bleed local restaurants and small businesses while everyone cheers “progress.” We share a Golden Nugget on staying ahead of city planning so you don't buy into a “great deal” that gets wrecked by construction, street closures, and shifting tax burdens.If you own rentals, run a small business, or just want to understand how politics and policy actually hit your bottom line, this one's for you. Listen in, share this episode with another investor, and if it hits home, leave us a 5-star review so we can keep calling this stuff out in real time.You can Join the Omaha REIA - https://omahareia.com/join-todayOmaha REIA on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/groups/OmahaREIACheck out the National REIA - https://nationalreia.org/ Find Ted Kaasch at www.tedkaasch.com Owen Dashner on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/owen.dashner Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/odawg2424/ Red Ladder Property Solutions - www.sellmyhouseinomahafast.com Liquid Lending Solutions - www.liquidlendingsolutions.com Owen's Blogs - www.otowninvestor.com www.reiquicktips.com Propstream - https://trial.propstreampro.com/reianebraska/Timber Creek Virtual - https://timbercreekvirtual.com/services/MagicDoor - https://magicdoor.com/reia/...
