"There's something about the consistency and letting go of The so-called vanity metrics and seeing that more broad view of how social media can help connect us." "What is my why? Why am I even doing this? What is my who? Who am I helping? And what is my how? How am I helping?" "How can you show up in the way that works for you?" "This isn't about you. You've got to see the fear and the imposter syndrome and the insecurity and do it anyway.”

You're doing everything right — taking care of yourself, practicing embodiment, doing the mindset work — but something still feels off. If you've ever found yourself exhausted, overwhelmed, or battling physical symptoms despite all your efforts… this episode is for you. Today, Dr Nancy is joined by her former client Brea Fisher — a gifted teacher of Chinese internal martial arts and founder of Guian Gun Fu — for a raw, powerful conversation about what happens when high-achieving women finally stop trying to do it all alone. Brea shares: How despite years of deep personal work, her body began sending loud distress signals she couldn't decode on her own Why her independence and "do it yourself" mindset was actually blocking her full healing The subtle (and not-so-subtle) health symptoms she was experiencing — and how they completely transformed once she embraced deeper support How asking for help opened a portal not just for physical healing, but for deeper leadership, creativity, and trust in life itself If you're tired of holding it all together on your own, if your body is whispering (or shouting) that it's time for a change, listen closely. This conversation could be the mirror you didn't know you needed. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why traditional "self-discipline" often fails women in healing How to spot the signs that your body is asking for a new way forward The connection between nervous system regulation, hormone balance, and receiving support The hidden cost of radical independence — and the freedom on the other side of it Practical steps to begin softening into a new relationship with your health, your energy, and your leadership Resources Mentioned: Connect with Brea Fisher and explore her Qigong practice at Patreon.com/BreaFisher Follow Brea on Instagram: @quanyingongfu Love this episode?

http://www.futurestay.com/bill In this episode of Bill Faeth Unfiltered, Bill welcomes special guest Phil Kennard, a seasoned professional from the vacation rental industry. Phil is the founder of Futurestay, a platform that simplifies direct bookings for short-term rental owners. Bill introduces Phil's impressive background, which includes creating video games for Take Two Interactive, and developing a PropTech company for property managers. Phil shares how Futurestay evolved from his own need to manage bookings for his New York apartment. He highlights a surprising industry insight - that most vacation rentals are owned by small-scale operators, not large companies. FutureStay aims to level the playing field for these smaller operators by providing an easy-to-use platform for managing direct bookings, complete with features like dynamic pricing and Google Vacation Rentals integration. Bill emphasizes Futurestay's ability to transform any Airbnb listing into a highly converting direct booking site within minutes. Phil discusses the importance of optimizing Airbnb listings and the benefits of a direct booking loop. The episode offers listeners valuable tips on managing their short-term rental listings effectively, including leveraging OTAs and ensuring their listings are optimized. Bill and Phil also touch on the importance of customer retention and the various ways property owners can increase direct bookings.

https://buildstrwealth.com/proforma http://www.futurestay.com/bill In this episode of Bill Faeth Unfiltered, Bill dives into the often-overlooked hidden costs of short-term rentals. He emphasizes the significant expenses that many investors fail to consider, such as carry costs from the purchase date to launch, and travel expenses for out-of-market properties. He shares personal insights, including an unforeseen $4,000 snow removal cost at his Elk Lodge property in North Carolina. Bill, along with guest Chris, discusses the importance of accurately estimating expenses like property taxes, internet, and landscaping, which can significantly impact profitability. They also highlight the importance of understanding your ideal guest's preferences and designing properties to meet their needs.
