In this episode of Leadership on the Links, we sit down with Evan Schiller, one of the golf industry's most respected course photographers. Evan shares his journey from competitive golfer to capturing some of the world's most stunning golf courses. We discuss the role of photography in shaping a golf course's brand, the behind-the-scenes work of superintendents, and the evolving trends in course design and maintenance. What You'll Learn in This Episode: How Evan transitioned from playing professional golf to becoming a leading golf course photographer The meticulous planning and preparation involved in capturing the perfect golf course image Why high-quality photography is essential for a course's branding, marketing, and membership attraction The often-overlooked contributions of golf course superintendents and maintenance crews How course architecture, grass types, and environmental considerations are shaping modern golf design The importance of relationships between photographers, superintendents, and architects in the golf industry Soundbytes: “That's the kind of detail that makes a difference—not just for photography but for course maintenance. The grass tells a story, and I love learning from the people who care for it every day.” (34:44) “I'll be in the parking lot, packing up my gear, when someone—maybe a member, a guest, or even a staffer—asks, Oh, are you heading out now to shoot? No, I'm done. I always get a surprised look. Wait, what? They don't realize I've already been out there for hours.” (50:00) Key Quotes: "I was recently at Riviera, the bunkering there stood out as some of the best I've ever seen. Yes, some of the bunkers had steep faces, but the way they were designed and framed within the course was visually stunning. It wasn't just about difficulty; it was about how they shaped the experience of the course. Truly some of the best I've ever seen.” “Many people don't fully appreciate—or perhaps don't even realize—just how early golf course teams start their day.” “It's an incredible level of commitment that most people never see—but it's what makes the flawless morning rounds possible.”

In this Convo of Flanigan's Eco-Logic, Ted speaks with Janet Irizarry, Founder of My Mindful Kitchen, an innovative course designed to reduce food waste, connect families, and foster sustainability. As a mindful foodie, a seasoned restaurateur and entrepreneur, and influencer, Janet combines all of her passions: food, education and course design, raising children, and protecting the environment, to teach children valuable lessons about mindfulness, sustainability, and community, while also strengthening familial bonds. Janet is also the Founder of Hudson Valley EATS, a bimonthly column that she started several years ago to highlight food entrepreneurs and restaurant owners in the Hudson Valley. However, during the pandemic, she shifted its focus to raise money and raise awareness for sustainability and hunger relief organizations in the area. She decided to use the platform to ensure that "Everyone EATS" in the Hudson Valley, and that has been the main focus ever since.She and Ted dig into the My Mindful Kitchen (MMK) Method, which offers practical solutions to household food waste, addressing a critical issue contributing to climate change. Aligned with the EPA's Wasted Food Scale, Janet explains that the program focuses on preventing waste before it starts, encouraging mindful consumption, and making sustainability an easy part of everyday life. In her course, she touches on healthy eating and cooking, though the core of the program is equipping families with the tools to tackle common challenges—like overbuying, disorganization, and poor planning—and create meaningful, positive change.Janet concludes by sharing that the course launched on January 2nd, and her goal is to help families recognize that food choices matter—not just for physical health, but also for emotional well-being, the health of others, and the planet. By fostering this awareness, families can transform unpleasant feelings about big issues like inflation, political uncertainty, and climate change into a sense of empowerment. She believes that each family and individual has the power to make a significant difference in shaping a better future.
