In this special episode of the REIT Report, part of an ongoing series, “Building Resilience,” covering issues facing the REIT industry as it remains focused on investing for the long term, Daniel Kaniewski, Managing Director, Public Sector at Marsh McLennan, joins Nareit's Jessica Long, Senior Vice President of Environmental Stewardship and Sustainability, to discuss how his experience as the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) first deputy administrator for resilience has led to his current focus advancing resilience investment in the private sector.“During Hurricane Katrina, I was at the White House and saw the mass devastation, and I said, shouldn't we be doing something ahead of time to reduce these disaster losses Americans will almost inevitably face. What I found was there was a small but growing interest in an area called disaster resilience.”Currently, Kaniewski chairs the finance, insurance, and real estate committee at the National Institute of Building Sciences (NIBS), a congressionally chartered nonprofit. He shares how he first got to know NIBS through their 2005 Natural Hazard Mitigation Saves study, which showed that every dollar the federal government invested in hazard mitigation saved four dollars. Then in 2017, “on the heels of hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria,” Kaniewski asked NIBS for the bottom line of a forthcoming updated Mitigation Saves study. “They shared that savings were actually, six to one. The updated report found that others benefited from these mitigation investments beyond the federal government. Communities that can continue to function after a disaster will save money, not just to the homeowner or the federal government, but to everyone in that community who would otherwise have to take the time to help those with the losses. Recovery costs were greatly reduced by those hazard mitigation investments.”

 In this episode of the REIT Report special series, “Building Resilience,” Dr. Jeremy Porter, head of climate implications research at First Street Foundation, shares  how data supports real estate stakeholders in making informed decisions and adapt to more extreme weather events.  In this special episode of the REIT Report, part of an ongoing series, “Building Resilience,” covering issues facing the REIT industry as it remains focused on investing for the long term, Jeremy Porter, head of climate implications research at  First Street Foundation , joins Nareit's Jessica Long, senior vice president of environmental stewardship and sustainability, to discuss how high-resolution climate models are helping people to understand property-specific impacts from different weather events and to develop and implement adaptation plans.  “One of the ways in which we've thought about climate risk is a one-in-a-100-year event, which implies that if I just had a one-in-a-100-year flood, I don't have to worry about another one, I'm not going to live to be 100 years old. That's not actually how they work,” Porter explains. “Understanding that every year there's an independent opportunity for that probability of an event to occur, so if you look out over the 30 years of a standard residential mortgage, a 1% chance of flooding every year means that over those 30 years, you have a 26% chance of flooding. And so suddenly you're saying, wow, I have over a quarter chance of flooding over the lifetime of my mortgage.” 

In today's episode, Justin sits down with Dr. Brett Blair—keynote speaker, coach, and a powerful voice on what it means to live with unshakable resilience. Through deep loss, major life transitions, and moments that could have broken him, Brett chose something different. He chose to rise. He chose positivity. He chose purpose. He chose joy. After walking through the painful experience of losing his wife to ALS, Brett didn't turn away from life—he leaned into it. With quiet strength and a deep-rooted faith, he carried his grief and grew from it. His story is a testament to what's possible when we allow hardship to refine us rather than define us. Brett shares how resilience isn't just something you're born with—it's something you build. It's a daily choice to keep going, to stay grounded in gratitude, and to believe that there's still beauty ahead. The science of resilience supports it. Faith fuels it. And Brett's life reflects it. Throughout the conversation, he invites us to reflect on what it means to provide like Jesus, to put our well-being first without guilt, and to remain anchored in God's presence—even when life feels overwhelming. If you've ever wondered how to keep going when life gets heavy, this episode is a push to remember your strength. Resilience doesn't remove pain—but it gives you the power to move through it with clarity, courage, and hope. This episode is your reminder: positivity is a force, resilience is a choice, and joy can still rise from hard places. Learn more about Brett's work at brettblairphd.com.

Cary Williams' journey is a true testament to resilience and the power of perseverance. She's not just an entrepreneur and the founder of Tussle Gear—she's someone who has weathered the highs and lows of life and learned the most valuable lessons during the most challenging times. For Cary, success isn't just about hitting milestones—it's about how you rise when things go wrong, how you keep moving forward no matter the hurdles in your path.A pivotal moment from Cary's childhood shaped who she is today. At just eight years old, she wanted to walk to the store alone but was terrified of a group of girls in her neighborhood who often picked on her. Instead of stepping in to protect her, her dad handed her a stick and told her, “You've got this. Take control.” Though it seemed simple at the time, this small but powerful gesture taught Cary that facing her fears was a decision she had to make herself. It was the beginning of her journey toward independence and strength, a foundation that would carry her through life's challenges.Quotes:● "The only way through fear is to face it head-on." – Cary Williams● "It's not about waiting for things to get easier, it's about deciding you're going to keep going, no matter what." – Cary Williams● "I've learned that failure isn't the end—it's just the beginning of something new." – Cary WilliamsTakeaways:● Fear doesn't go away on its own. The only way through it is to face it and keep moving forward.● Life's challenges don't define you. It's your response to them that shapes who you become.● There's power in failure—it's where you learn the most and find your true strength.Conclusion: Cary's story teaches us that success isn't about avoiding failure—it's about how we respond to it. By facing fears, overcoming setbacks, and continuing to push forward, we can take control of our lives and create something meaningful. Cary's journey shows that no matter what life throws at you, you have the strength to rise, rebuild, and make the life you want. With courage and determination, we can all rewrite our stories.

In this episode of Homebody, Anna delves into the Polyvagal Theory, explaining the three primary states of the autonomic nervous system: dorsal vagal shutdown, sympathetic activation, and ventral vagal safety. She emphasizes the importance of understanding these states and how to navigate them effectively, especially during trauma healing. Anna provides practical tools for transitioning between these states and building resilience, encouraging listeners to approach their healing journey with patience and self-compassion. takeaways The Polyvagal Theory outlines three primary states of the autonomic nervous system. Dorsal vagal shutdown is a state of collapse and disconnection. Sympathetic activation is the fight or flight response. Ventral vagal state is where we feel safe and connected. Healing often involves uncomfortable middle steps. Understanding transitions helps avoid shame around in-between states. Each state is a response to how safe our nervous system feels. Gentle movements can help transition from dorsal vagal to sympathetic. Building resilience involves daily routines of safety and connection. Noticing glimmers can enhance our sense of joy and safety.

"I say unto you, one must still have chaos in one's self to be able to give birth to a dancing star. I say unto you, you still have chaos in yourselves. Where is the lightning to lick you with its tongue. Where is the frenzy with which you should be inoculated. Behold, I give you the übermensch. He is this lightning. He is this frenzy." - Friedrich NietzscheWe've got our very own Jay Doran back again today with another look at a culture topic that is on his mind and that topic today is burnout.  There are people who never seem to feel the effects, but not everyone can be that lucky.  It is up to the individual to deal with the burnout symptoms as they come, but how can you even get started?  How can you build a resilience to burnout to make sure that you can make it through to the other side and keep your business going?  Let's talk it out on this episode of The Culture Matters Podcast.

From money mindset meltdowns to multimillion-dollar business strategy sessions, she shares client stories (anonymously, of course) that will make you feel seen, validated, and so not alone. Whether you're a CEO drowning in payroll panic, a high achiever seeking clarity, or a woman juggling business, family, and the overwhelm that comes with growth—this episode is your mirror. Christina talks through the power of mindset and strategy, what investing in herself taught her about alignment, and why she's shifting her focus to work deeper with those who are ready to rise. She gets vulnerable, shares her own behind-the-scenes chaos (hello, 75 Hard), and offers a powerful reminder: you don't need to be in crisis to want more—you just need to be brave enough to say yes to it. 

Building Resilience and Emotional Hygiene In this episode, I sat down with Malisa to talk about her new course, Surviving the Shit Show, which is all about building resilience and emotional hygiene in today's chaotic world. Malisa shared how daily practices can help cultivate joy and peace, no matter what's happening externally. She also opened up about her healing journey, self-love, and the power of human connection. I encouraged her to dive deeper into her experiences and what she hopes to achieve with the course. Balancing Activism and Self-Care We tackled a big challenge many people face—balancing activism with self-care. Malisa stressed the importance of choosing one or two causes to focus on rather than trying to carry the world's weight. She highlighted why setting boundaries and prioritizing personal well-being is crucial for long-term impact. I completely agree—if you want to serve others effectively, you must show up as your best version first. Managing Negative Thoughts and Sleep We also dug into how negative thoughts and constant news consumption can seriously affect well-being. Instead of suppressing those thoughts, Malisa emphasized the power of recognizing and managing them with the right tools. She discussed the importance of having a solid "toolbox" for navigating challenging moments. Sleep was another big topic—we both agreed that maintaining a consistent sleep schedule is a game-changer for mental clarity and emotional resilience. Before wrapping up, I suggested we explore the deeper reasons behind forgetfulness and distraction in a future conversation. Emotional and Physical Well-Being Strategies Malisa and I shared strategies for maintaining emotional and physical well-being. She talked about the power of setting up a morning routine that aligns with your personality—whether it's EFT tapping, yoga, or something else that grounds you. We also discussed the importance of checking in with yourself throughout the day to track energy levels and adjust accordingly. I pointed out that hourly check-ins can be a great way to identify personal energy patterns. We both agreed that self-love and reprogramming the subconscious to reinforce worthiness are key to long-term well-being. We also touched on the "big rocks" concept—aligning tasks with natural energy cycles to work smarter, not harder. Productivity Strategies and Natural Work Approach Finally, we explored productivity strategies that work with your natural rhythms rather than against them. Malisa shared how she structures her work around what energizes her rather than forcing herself through tasks that drain her. We agreed that understanding your energy patterns, taking breaks when needed, and avoiding burnout is critical for sustainable productivity. I encouraged Malisa to keep sharing her insights because these strategies can make a real difference for many people trying to navigate life and work healthily.
