OUR AWESOME GUEST This WEEK: Paul Cuneo Change doesn't start with a neat plan. It starts with the knowing that your current path no longer fits, and the quiet nudge that something braver is calling. We sit down with Paul Cuneo, creator of the Hero's Journey Odyssey Experience, to explore how ancient story patterns and Jungian psychology can turn that restlessness into a reliable map for reinvention. From the call to adventure to the ordeal and the return, Paul shows how each stage reflects an inner identity shift—and how recognizing where you are can reduce fear, clarify next steps, and restore momentum.Paul's unconventional path from music and movement to acting and identity work reveals a key insight: the world doesn't need a perfect performance, it needs your singular presence. That principle anchors his client work. When the ego gets loud—demanding certainty and control—intuition speaks in whispers that are easy to miss. Paul offers practical ways to hear those signals, “follow the firefly,” and clear the hidden blockages (guilt, old stories, outdated defenses) that keep solutions out of reach. One powerful reframe: you don't have to give up who you are; you only have to release the belief that you need certain traits to be safe. Set the sword down so both hands can be in the work, and pick it up again only when it's truly needed.We also unpack a liberating lens on agency: reality versus agreement. Buildings are real; businesses are agreements. Labels are agreements. When you see how much of your life you've consented to, renegotiating becomes possible. If you agreed, you can change the terms. By mapping your journey, honoring the old identity with gratitude, and stepping toward the new one without clinging, hard stops feeling like failure and starts feeling like progress. If you're navigating a career pivot, a relationship shift, or a deep reinvention, this conversation offers structure, language, and tools to move forward with courage. If it resonated, subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a review—we'd love to hear which stage of the journey you're in now."One of the MOST profound, think outside the box episodes I've experienced while hosting the show" - Brad WeismanHi This is Brad Weisman - Click Here to Send Me a Text Message ---Welcome to The Brad Weisman Show, where we dive into the world of real estate, real life, and everything in between with your host, Brad Weisman!

This week on Better Buildings for Humans, host Joe Menchefski explores the fascinating science of light and health with Jan Denneman, founder of the Good Light Group and a 45-year veteran of the lighting industry. Jan unpacks the critical—yet often overlooked—role of light in regulating our circadian rhythms, boosting sleep quality, enhancing mood, and even reducing national healthcare costs. From the newly discovered “spheres” in our eyes to the magic of 500 lux, Jan explains how most indoor environments fall into what he calls a “twilight zone,” biologically speaking. He also dives into why natural light trumps artificial, and how healthier buildings could be our biggest untapped wellness tool. If you care about human-centered design, lighting innovation, and boosting occupant performance, this episode is a must-listen.More About Jan DennemanJan Denneman is the founder and chairman of the Good Light Group and ambassador of the Global Lighting Association. The Good Light Group is a non-profit organization promoting good indoor lighting — either natural daylight or electric light with comparable positive effects on health and well-being. Good light helps synchronize the biological clock, improves sleep quality, increases daytime energy, and supports a better mood and long-term health. With more than 45 years of experience in lighting, Jan has developed deep expertise in how light affects human health. He served as Vice President at Philips Lighting (now Signify) and held leadership roles in innovation, product development, marketing, and sustainability.

Op veel plekken klinken tegenstrijdige geluiden over drukte op kantoor: medewerkers klagen over lawaai en het gebrek aan concentratieplekken, terwijl facility managers zien dat er “genoeg plekken vrij” zijn. Hoe kan het dat sommige kantoordagen zó druk en vermoeiend voelen, terwijl de bezetting misschien niet eens zo hoog is? En waarom raken sommige mensen veel sneller overprikkeld dan anderen?In deze aflevering duikt Suzanne samen met Gijs Brouwers (Center for People and Buildings) en Bartele Hoekstra (UNIQ MINDS) in de ervaring van drukte op kantoor. We bespreken welke fysieke, sociale en persoonlijke factoren een rol spelen bij druktebeleving. Van akoestiek en openheid van de werkomgeving, tot verwachtingen, persoonlijke ruimte en prikkelgevoeligheid. Ook kijken we naar het hybride werken en de bekende “kamelendagen” (de drukke dinsdag en donderdag) en hoor je welke afspraken en faciliteiten helpen om kantoor aantrekkelijker en prikkelvriendelijker te maken.

Are you walking past your next great commercial property deal? In this episode, we dive into the fascinating world of "difficult buildings"—the quirky, awkward, specialized, or just plain hard-to-imagine properties that most investors overlook. From old public toilets (yes, toilets) and churches to industrial units, banks, and former schools, all of these often hide the best commercial investment opportunities. Learn how to apply imagination, creativity, and strategic thinking to buildings that are typically cheaper because they're seen as "problems," and transform them into valuable, versatile, and profitable commercial spaces.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tonight's presentation explores the horrifying encounters reported inside abandoned buildings and forgotten spaces where the past refuses to stay silent. From deserted psychiatric hospitals to decaying jails, military warehouses, collapsed railroad tunnels, and hidden forest structures, these witnesses came face to face with entities that defy explanation. Massive winged creatures, invisible predators, mirrored men, skeletal figures, and demon-like humanoids all emerged from the shadows when the explorers least expected it. Each report reveals how the abandoned and overlooked places around us often conceal forces far more terrifying than ghosts or urban legends. These chilling accounts challenge our understanding of what moves through the derelict structures of America and beyond.

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREAre you an entrepreneur looking to grow and thrive in the legal space? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, Tyson interviews Matt Anderson, an attorney and real estate investor, about his unconventional journey blending law, entrepreneurship, and property investing. Matt shares lessons from multi-level marketing and business ownership and emphasizes the importance of hiring for culture fit.For lawyers who are new to the entrepreneurial space, it is possible to build a firm that runs on minimal daily involvement. In order to do this, you need to let go of a lot of the day to day work of practicing law as well as partner and hire individuals who can help you achieve that. Partner with another lawyer who has the same vision as you. After that, look at hiring good lawyers who will do all the necessary work that will bring you success. That way, you can spend your day doing what you want to do.Matt provides some insights on hiring staff based on culture and character, rather than experience. One way to do this is utilizing personality tests, inner metrics and multiple interviews to find the right fit. For Matt, anyone can learn a skill or aspects of a job. But, not everyone has the character or personality to work for a certain firm. As an owner, you need to determine what kind of firm you want to run and hire people based on what matters to you most.Listen in to learn more!2:01 Creative Side Hustles in Law School4:13 Building a Business, Not Just Practicing Law9:44 Hiring and Personality Fit16:32 Buying Law Firm Real Estate 23:23 Creative Financing and Seller Deals 25:12 Renting vs. Owning Your Home29:24 AI as a Law Firm Leveler32:13 Preventing Lifestyle Creep in Law Firms34:06 Impact of AI and the Future of Office Space43:36 Who Runs the Firm?47:20 Biggest Surprises in Partnership 49:40 Implementing AI in the Firm53:03 The Role of Hard Work in Success 58:03 Importance of Emotional Intelligence (EQ)Connect with Matt:Website LinkedIn Tune in to today's episode and checkout the full show notes here.

Welcome to the commercial real estate apocalypse, where Denver office buildings are selling for literal pennies on the dollar! We're talking 85-90% haircuts on properties that were worth hundreds of millions just four years ago. Brookfield just took a $342 million bath on their Denver office complex, selling for $57.5 million what they paid $400 million for in 2020. Meanwhile, Seattle politicians are so incompetent they're closing city parks rather than addressing the rampant criminal activity destroying them.This isn't just a pandemic hangover – it's the predictable result of progressive leadership letting downtown cores become open-air drug markets while telling businesses "work from home forever." From Denver's twin towers selling for $6 million (down 90%) to Wells Fargo Center losing 76% of its value, we're witnessing the greatest commercial real estate collapse in modern history.Is anyone surprised that companies don't want their employees walking through zombie-infested streets? What did these progressive mayors think would happen when they chose criminals over taxpayers? The doom loop continues, and it's only getting worse.

The South African city of Johannesburg has well over 100 abandoned and derelict buildings plagued by rubbish and open sewage and some have been taken over by criminal gangs. Many are also home to some of the city's most vulnerable residents. As Johannesburg gears up to host leaders from the world's major economies for the G20 summit, what is being done to address the issue of 'hijacked' buildings? BBC Africa Eye has been there to investigate, and we hear more from their reporter. For nearly five years, Burundians have endured crippling shortages of fuel, electricity, and clean water. What is behind the triple crisis that is paralysing most of the country?And why have protesters targeted the new multi-million dollar Museum of West African Art in Nigeria, forcing organisers to cancel preview events ahead of its grand opening.Presenter: Audrey Brown Producers: Todah Opeyemi in Lagos.

Hello everyone! This week I'm joined by Carrie Jackson, the incredible principal of Allen High School in Texas — and someone I've had the privilege of working alongside in my career. Carrie embodies what it means to lead with humility, compassion, and care. In our conversation, we dig deep into what real leadership looks like — not the kind that leans on authority or power, but the kind that sees people first. We talk about the difference between power and influence, and how the best leaders earn trust and respect not through force, but through consistency, empathy, and a genuine commitment to the people they serve. It's a reminder that leadership isn't about control — it's about connection.
