Hats, Hustle, and Heritage: How John Brubaker Wears Every Role with PurposeIn a world where reinvention is often just a buzzword, John Brubaker is living proof that you can evolve without losing the core of who you are. Known to many as Coach Bru, a celebrated author, speaker, and performance coach, Brubaker has turned his passion for leadership into bestselling books and transformative programs. But in a bold pivot, he's added a new title to his resume—master hatmaker and founder of Hats by Bru.This podcast episode dives into the story behind that transformation, revealing how a deep love for craftsmanship, style, and storytelling led him to create a brand that sits at the intersection of identity and artistry.From Coaching Greatness to Crafting CrownsIn the episode, Brubaker shares how he went from writing leadership books and speaking on big stages to hand-shaping hats in his workshop in Maine. What started as a personal passion evolved into Hats by Bru, a bespoke hat company rooted in tradition and individual expression."Every hat I make is a reflection of someone's story,” Brubaker says in the episode. “It's not just an accessory—it's a statement."Listeners learn how he immersed himself in the craft, studying under master hatters in Texas and Colorado, and why attention to detail—something he honed as a coach—is now the soul of his business.Why Hats by Bru is More Than a BrandBrubaker doesn't just make hats—he creates an experience. Whether it's a custom fitting, a storytelling session during the design process, or a community event, Hats by Bru reflects a lifestyle of confidence, authenticity, and legacy.In the episode, Brubaker talks about how his clients range from country musicians and executives to creatives and everyday folks who want to wear something uniquely theirs. His custom events—private hat parties and pop-ups—turn craftsmanship into connection.“People light up when they put on the hat that's made for them. It's like they're stepping into who they really are,” he shares.A Legacy of LeadershipBefore hats, Brubaker was (and still is) a powerhouse in performance coaching. With titles like Seeds of Success, The Coach Approach, and Stadium Status, he's helped leaders unlock potential through mindset shifts and strategic focus. His work has been featured in Forbes, Entrepreneur, and Fast Company, and he's hosted The Coach Bru Podcast, where leadership and life intersect.Interestingly, the two worlds—coaching and hat-making—aren't so different. As he explains in the episode:“Coaching is about seeing people clearly. So is crafting a hat. Both require listening, understanding, and shaping something with intention.”Blending Purpose with PracticeThe episode touches on the importance of slowing down, working with your hands, and creating something meaningful in a digital-first world. Brubaker reflects on the joy of building with intention and the creative peace he's found in hat making. It's a refreshing take on entrepreneurship that values depth over speed and connection over clicks.He's also authored a companion guide, The Care and Feeding of Your Hat, which mirrors his leadership ethos: take care of your tools, your story, and yourself.Final Stitch: What This Episode Teaches UsThis conversation with John Brubaker reminds us that our paths don't have to be linear. You can write books, lead teams, and shape fedoras—all with the same heart. Whether you're a creative, a leader, or someone in search of a new beginning, Hats by Bru is more than a business—it's a metaphor for reclaiming your identity, one stitch at a time.Listen to the full episode to hear how Coach Bru weaves storytelling, legacy, and leadership into every brim and every brand he builds.

In this all-star episode, it was the height of Covid, so Jordan jumped on a video call with Andrew and Michelle Muñoz of Moo's Craft Barecue to discuss their origin story and upcoming tranistion from pop-up concept to brick and mortar - a destination that is now, fours year later, widely considered the best Texas barbecue restaurant in Los Angeles.

There was a time in Boréale's (https://www.boreale.com/en) not-so-distant past when they might have released a new beer every other year. The brewery is one of Quebec's oldest craft breweries, dating back to the late 1980s, and over its history it has seen waves and trends come and go. But the changing dynamics of craft brewing in the 2010s posed a different kind of challenge that required a new way to approach innovation and risk-taking. Then head brewer, now vice president of innovation, Gabriel “Gab” Dulong played a big part in that adjustment, getting the brewery into the unfolding world of production-scale hazy IPA in 2016, then pushing hard into nonalcoholic NA beer through the pandemic. Today, the brewery remains one of the largest craft breweries in Quebec—and only in Quebec—producing about 100,000 barrels of beer per year. But innovation is now core to their DNA. In this episode, Dulong discusses: helping an established brewery transition to the market realities of the past decade reorienting to sell on quality and ingredients instead of price point building a new approach to cold-chain storage to properly distribute hazy IPA in Quebec generating internal knowledge in NA brewing developing style-dependent processes for different NA beers experimenting with specialized yeasts before settling on tight processes with standard brewing yeasts building mouthfeel and intensity without alcohol in beer hopping with modern hop products in NA beer malt selection for hazy IPA manipulating final gravity for NA versions of core brands And more.

We're joined by James Currier who explains how ‘network effects' shape our economies, tech, civilisation and how to master that to our advantage. James is a five-time Founder, an angel investor in DoorDash, Lyft, and Patreon, and a Founding Partner at NFX. Before becoming an investor, James was the co-founder and CEO of Tickle, one of the internet's first successful user-generated companies. From Metcalfe's Law to the rise of AI-powered startups, we explore how the invisible laws of networks explain why some companies scale exponentially while others fade out and why understanding these forces is key to building anything lasting in the 21st century. James has backed some of Silicon Valley's most iconic startups and coined frameworks that are now industry standards. From early internet marketplaces to AI agents and Web3 protocols, his insights map out how startups win by designing for virality, defensibility, and system-level scale. We dive into: • The 17 types of network effects; from marketplaces to expertise networks, and how to build them into your product. • The collapse of traditional moats in the digital age and what defensibility means in the era of AI. • Why companies like OpenAI and Salesforce are embedding themselves into users' lives to build lasting leverage. • The rise of “3-person unicorns” and how AI is accelerating startup formation and shrinking team sizes. • How founders can think about viral growth in a world where old playbooks (like Craigslist hacks) no longer work. • Lessons from failure: why even with network effects, execution is everything. • What AI bubbles mean for value creation and why James loves them. • How to survive and thrive in a noisy world: hitting it hard, identifying “technology windows,” and creating high-leverage product experiences. Key Takeaways from the Episode: 1. Network Effects Are the New Physics of Business: James breaks down why 70%+ of value in tech comes from companies that embed network effects and why founders need to build products that get stronger with every new user. 2. 17 Distinct Types of Network Effects: From classic telephone lines to software platforms and even Toyota's repair ecosystem, we explore the taxonomy of modern network effects, including marketplace, platform, expertise, and embedding effects. 3. Defensibility in the AI Era: With generative AI becoming a commodity, the real moat is not the model but embedding, data ownership, and network density. OpenAI's memory feature, for example, is a classic embedding play. 4. How Salesforce, Uber, and Facebook Reinforce Their Moats: Learn how these giants layered multiple defensibilities scale, brand, embedding, and networks to dominate their markets. 5. The “Technology Window” Model: Massive companies are born not from marketing innovation but from catching the right tech wave just as we saw with the internet, social media, and now AI. 6. What Most Founders Get Wrong About Virality: It's not about shouting louder, but about building value that spreads organically through “shrew-like” constant motion experimenting, iterating, and finding attention before the channel closes. 7. The Rise of AI-Native Companies: The best startups of the 2020s will be “AI-first,” doing with 3 people what used to take 300 reshaping business models, hiring, and even venture capital itself. 8. Why Founders Must Love the Craft, Not Just the Exit: Great companies are built by people obsessed with the product and the mission not just chasing valuation multiples.

Was wine in the Bible just a calorie source—or something far richer? In this fascinating conversation, Dr. John Anthony Dunne, author of The Mountain Shall Drip Sweet Wine: A Biblical Theology of Alcohol, joins Dru Johnson to explore how wine and alcohol shaped ancient Israel's culture, theology, and imagination. Dr. Dunne traces how biblical wine reflected not only the scarcity and agricultural hopes of ancient life, but also a tradition of craftsmanship, connoisseurship, and divine blessing. Together they unpack why biblical wine wasn't just functional—it was symbolic of abundance, peace, and God's favor. From fermentation methods and ancient storage to the surprising case for white wine at the wedding at Cana, this episode challenges modern assumptions about alcohol in Scripture. Dunne explores why the biblical world viewed wine as inherently miraculous, why production was tied to the land promise, and how modern communion links us to Canaan's terroir in unexpected ways.

If you are trying to solve someone's problem with your big picture for life, then your brand is the way you link your vision to what your ideal client is struggling with. It can be having enough time for your future kids or the freedom to live and work from anywhere. This dream is your "why," and it gives your life direction. But most people don't even let themselves dream that big because they can't see how their current job could ever make it happen. So, to find that niche for your content strategy, you show the connection. Share with them what freedom looks like with time, location, and money. And that is what brings them solutions to their problems.In this another Diamond Life Mentor Uncut episode, Balazs W Kardos shares a clip from his previous Accelerator call to answer questions about choosing a niche to craft your story, as he just concluded the Global Convention over the weekend. Balazs wants you to start by having clarity on what you want. That will be your core reason and connection to your content strategy and target audience. Then, directly address the opposite – the pain you want to avoid. You want to be in control. You want to choose how you spend your days, to decide, "You know what? Today, I want to do something different." Your content and ads should directly address this connection. Your niche goes beyond just who you are; your brand serves as the link between your aspirations and your clients' struggles. As a result, you should focus on breaking free from the typical work schedule or gaining more quality time with your family to represent that.Lastly, Balazs recommends allocating 80% of your ad budget to what works best and 20% to exploring new ideas. As you grow as a leader and business owner, keep testing different approaches to adapt and find what works for you. "The pain is the piece that brings it all over here. You describe what you want, and then you transition from that to what you don't want. You have to choose a primary emotional driver that is the most important to you right now as key for your content strategy." - Balazs W KardosListen to this episode to understand your audience's biggest frustrations and link them directly to your vision of freedom as you define your niche.Key Diamond Nuggets In This Episode:Why is it important to determine your "Why" to drive success?How can you escape time prison to gain time freedom?Why should you address your pain points in your content?Why is your niche not your identity?How can you connect your brand with your ideal client's pain?How can you test and budget your ad strategy?Want a Personalized Plan for Business & Life Optimization?Book A FREE Call Connect with Balazs W Kardos:WebsiteFacebookThe Diamond Life CommunityLinkedInYouTubeInstagramThe Diamond Life Mentor Instagram

In today's episode, I'm going solo to explore a question I've been asked dozens of times: “Should I take notes during my coaching sessions?” As with many things in life, this is not a black or white issue, and the experts are divided over their answers. It's a simple question that doesn't have a simple answer! Join me to weigh the ins and outs of the “great notes debate.” Show Highlights:There are two sides of the coin with strong opinions on both:Side 1: Taking notes during sessions:Note-taking can make you a better listener. (Are you distilling the info down to the essence of the conversation or trying to capture EVERY detail?)It gives the coachee a “break” from being stared at.My personal experience in documentation Taking notes helps track details, progress, and accountability. Side 2: Minimal note-taking (or the “less is more” mindset):Our job is to hold space for the client to process through the session; note-taking is not necessary.Note-taking can slow you down to the point that you won't “end up” at the same place as your client.Note-taking can cause you to miss nonverbal cues from the client. The big question around taking notes: What is the purpose of your notes?Grounding with ethical principles in coaching around legality, records, privacy, etcWhat seasoned coaches say about their notes regarding transparencyFinding middle ground in the Great Notes DebateThe science of what happens in our brains: Divided attention vs. deep, empathetic listeningDeciphering body languageIs note-taking truly about helping the client move forward?Workable solutions to find middle ground: use appropriate forms, practice strategic note-taking (the two-layer approach, ABC framework, and technology tools)Meg's advice: “Craft your own approach and find what works for you to serve your clients best and maintain the integrity of the coaching relationship.”To beginning coaches: “Give yourself permission to experiment while building your curiosity and presence muscles.”Resources:Connect with Meg:ENROLLING NOW FOR THE FALL MENTOR PROGRAM beginning in August 2025.

With Republic National Distributing (RNDC) winding down distribution operations in California ahead of September 1 exit and consolidation continuing among craft wholesalers, this week's Brewbound Podcast explores the fallout of both in the Golden State.   Ferron Salniker, BevNET spirits editor, and Dave Infante, founder of the Fingers boozeletter, join Brewbound's Justin Kendall and Jessica Infante to look back on how one of the top distributors in the country's California business crumbled, the effect on smaller bev-alc producers in RNDC's book and the trickle-down effect on craft brewers.   They also explore multistate distributor Hand Family Companies' entry into the state through the acquisitions of three craft-focused wholesalers – Stone Distributing, Classic Beverage and Scout Distribution in Los Angeles – and the formation of Sunset Distributing.    Plus, Brewbound senior reporter Zoe Licata and Justin chat about her recent feature on the hard refresher trend and Gen Z's aversion to carbonated beverages.

Craft N/A Cocktails are on the rise, but there is still much that needs to change in this space — fundamental things like what we should and shouldn't be calling this whole category, and why that matters. Today, Jonathan Ellsworth discusses these things with our CRAFTED co-host and professional mixologist Eli Brown, who sees the real-world importance of these things every day. You'll hear about the project Eli's working on to create change, and you'll learn why one of the fastest-growing whiskey companies in the world, Uncle Nearest, is so interested in the N/A space.RELATED LINKS:Blister Craft CollectiveBecome a BLISTER+ MemberRaise the Bar programCRAFTED ep 66: Eli w/ Bar 5TOPICS & TIMES:Eli's ‘Raise The Bar' Project (1:46)Zebra Striping & Other Consumer Behavior (7:51)Current Stats in N/A (12:09)Defining a Category By What it Isn't (16:24)Ice Cream Analogy (21:05)Inclusivity (36:37)More on Conventions & Terminology (40:03)Cocktail Creation (45:42)Uncle Nearest & Historical N/A Ties (49:51) SEE OUR OTHER PODCASTS:Blister CinematicBikes & Big IdeasGEAR:30Blister Podcast Hosted on Acast.

EP.249 Onay Gutierrez is a multifaceted artist, collector, and preservationist with a rich background that spans education, ceramics, and historic preservation. Born in Veracruz, Mexico in 1977, Gutierrez began his career as an early elementary school teacher in marginalized communities in his home state. After immigrating to the United States, honed his skills as a ceramic artist. Gutierrez has a deep connection to the Penland School of Craft in the mountains of North Carolina, where he has been a student, patron, and now serves as a board member. This connection has likely influenced his artistic growth and commitment to the craft community. In addition to his artistic pursuits, Gutierrez is a passionate advocate for historic preservation. Alongside Jeffrey Childers PhD, he has restored three National Historic Places in Raleigh, NC. His commitment to art and social justice is further evident in their founding of the Gutierrez Collection, a contemporary art collection that explores themes of mental health, LGBTQ+ rights, Latin and Latinx identities, African and African diasporic cultures, women's art, and activism. The Gutierrez Collection has gained significant recognition, with its first museum exhibition currently on view at the Cameron Museum of Art in Wilmington, NC, until September 7th, and set to travel to the NC Museum of Art's Winston-Salem campus this fall. Through his work, Gutierrez continues to make a lasting impact on the art world, historic preservation, and social justice initiatives.

After a big night holding the room in their palms in Perth, JB and Billy kick things off with a jam-packed All Sports Report - including the AFL buying Waverley Park from the Hawks. Mitch Marsh is in studio to chat everything cricket, and what his Dad and brother are up to now. Topics Brownless thought long and hard and delivered what JB referred to as 'our worst phone topic ever', then we look at some of Billy's highlights at Waverley, and there's a Craft Attack around John Longmire's missing SD card from the 2024 Grand Final. West Coast legend Ben Cousins joins the show to talk about the Eagles, the Dockers, and his hernia operation, then Billy finishes with a cheeky joke about a couple lying in bed with different intentions.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We dive deep into the seductive promise and hidden costs of AI technology and the question that haunts every creative: what are we trading away for convenience? Through our exploration, we examine how tools shape not just what we make, but who we become in the process.We also wrestle with the tension between efficiency and authenticity, discussing everything from DV tape workflows to AI-generated content and the race to the bottom that threatens meaningful creation. This conversation challenges us to consider whether the magic intelligence in the cloud will free us to focus on what matters most, or whether we're surrendering the very friction and deliberateness that gives our work its soul. -Ai If you enjoyed this episode, please consider giving us a rating and/or a review.

In this episode, two of Justin's close-range UFO encounters are shared. The first took place during a quiet evening on the front porch of his home, when he looked up to see a large, disc-shaped craft hovering low over the neighborhood. It moved slowly, completely silent, with a ring of white lights underneath and a strange, circuit-like texture across its surface. The second encounter happened a few years later. While riding as a passenger in his sister's car, Justin witnessed an enormous triangular craft drifting just above the treetops. Despite its massive size, it moved slowly and silently. Both sightings left a lasting impression on Justin. But first, before we hear from Justin, we have two voice submissions sent in from Ben in the UK and Bob in the US.More information on this episode on the podcast website:https://ufochroniclespodcast.com/ep-339-the-georgia-skies/Hidden Cults (Promo)It is a documentary-style podcast that digs deep into the world's most extreme, elusive, and explosive fringe groups.

Master's MessageAs your Master for 2023, I'd like to hear from you. Send me a note at john.mccargar@gmail.com if you have any comments, concerns or questions at all. We have around 170 brother-members many of whom are out of state, many who are possibly unable to attend lodge. But either way, drop me a note and tell me how you are doing or offer some words about your journey at this stage in your life. I'd love to hear from you.The theme this month is secrecy, an important topic throughout the history of the Craft. The picture-insert of the figurine, with index finger placed close to his lips, appears to be a gesture to remain silent. Perhaps the depiction also hints at a finger pointed heavenward, as if to also suggest silence and reverence are combined to express the virtue of both. The ideal of secrecy forms a basis for protecting or even perpetuation our Masonic domain or body of knowledge. But what's the big deal about that? Many are or have been hostile to our fraternity. Here's a quick summary of why we have a need for maintaining “secrecy”:• Freemasonry stands against oppression and totalitarianism (AASR).• It is non-sectarian yet abhors atheism and promotes religious belief.• It proposes free-thought and free-conscience for determining truth.• It has spiritual rituals that can be the subject of ridicule or mockery.• It has no religious dogma yet invokes the blessings of Deity.• It has been seen as a conspiracy or prejudicial by the profane (historically).• Freemasons can be and have been the target of violence.• Seeks improvement in all human affairs through a select brotherhood.• Tolerates diverse philosophies in the exposition of truth.• Science and Religion go hand in hand.• It stands against ignorance, fanaticism, corruption and hate.These some of the bigger reasons; our modes of recognition and ritual details are lesser ones but just as important, if only for reverence in what leads to sacredness and respect for what is good and true among men. Tell me what you think. (Picture of figurine courtesy of the London Museum of Freemasonry)John McCargar, HAMasterFrom the WestA human being living alone at -71 deg C in the wilderness of snowy forests isn't affected by any secrecy; or is he part of one? In theory, secrecy and openness are mutually exclusive, meaning they can't exist at the same time just like war and peace. In the information age we live in, anything that brings criticism or vulnerability is termed to have been engulfed in secrecy or layers of it. Esoteric may or may not be a secret but a secret might be esoteric or it loses its definition. Does that make sense? Does secrecy breed incompetence, of course, it does. Maybe that is why it should be handled by the initiated and/or chosen few and not just anyone with a pulse. To avoid dire consequences secrecy acts as a shield. Ask an electrician the meaning of insulation that protects him but only a trusted man well-trained in the craft deserves that protection.The universe itself holds secrecy, colors don't announce the outcome when mixed.Greek, Roman, Egyptian, and Babylonian civilizations came and went away as time and tide wait for none. The society we live in has been destroyed and rebuilt many a time with the added knowledge that demands secrecy. The attentive ear receives sound from the instructive tongue and mysteries of freemasonry are safely lodged in the repository of faithful breasts. Freemasonry itself has withstood the tide of changing times because of the respect for the esoteric and the eyes that are upon its members. The goodness of heart and purity of intention keeps the tenets of our esteemed institution sacred and solid. The burdens and responsibilities that come with it entitle a Freemason to its benefits and privileges. Classified it is what makes them want it more or more will want it hence keeping classified, is the secrecy we all must deal with. Elite clubs have their limitations.Shivam J.

The first took place during a quiet evening on the front porch of his home, when he looked up to see a large, disc-shaped craft hovering low over the neighborhood. It moved slowly, completely silent, with a ring of white lights underneath and a strange, circuit-like texture across its surface. The second encounter happened a few years later. While riding as a passenger in his sister's car, Justin witnessed an enormous triangular craft drifting just above the treetops. Despite its massive size, it moved slowly and silently. Both sightings left a lasting impression on Justin. But first, before we hear from Justin, we have two voice submissions sent in from Ben in the UK and Bob in the US.More information on this episode on the podcast website:https://ufochroniclespodcast.com/ep-339-the-georgia-skies/Hidden Cults (Promo)It is a documentary-style podcast that digs deep into the world's most extreme, elusive, and explosive fringe groups.

You can't get this kind of goodness without a prescription (or a warrant) - it's a roundabout look at the upcoming 2025 Pike's Peak International Hillclimb [PPIHC.org (or .com - choose your adventure)], with everything from drivers, racecars (because racecar!), viewing (in-person or on TV and online), spectating (because you're not going to choke on race fuel fumes in your living room - probably), course info (best turns and, well, there are no worst turns here), and a little bit of history (because you can't do 100+ years of racing without having something historic happen).  Also, Hostus Maximus Justin Fort makes up a few words, describes a few things, and hits on a few highlights from the upcoming JF Summit #3. What's more? A head's up on an upside of the "big beautiful bill" - seems there is a little good tucked in this monstrosity for shooters, hunters and Second Amendment fans.  Also, backgrounds and full-on Euro club-hop weirdness from "This Is Everybody Too".

Send me a Text Message. SUMMARYIn this mostly unscripted episode, I share how Bullet Journaling helped me move from burnout to clarity. Before it became a tool in my business, it was a lifeline in my personal life. This is not a tutorial—it's a story of how I found my footing again, and why I still use this method today. And I announce an exciting challenge I'm working on! FULL SHOW NOTES WITH TAKEAWAYS + LINKSpatternshift.fmBEST QUOTE FROM THE EPISODE“The bullet journal method is about mindful productivity. It's about reflecting, looking back so that you are able to move forward in a way that's more…intentional.” You know me as a guide, mentor and teacher, but I've also set off on a new adventure, coaching.

Liz and Sarah discuss how writing the third draft of their pilot has made them realize there’s no right way to do something creative. There are MANY right ways. In Take Two, they revisit “whimsy” and share listener suggestions of whimsical items that bring joy. This week’s tip in The Craft (& Fain) makes a scene better AND shorter — lop off the first few lines and/or the last few lines. Then they share a summer travel Hollywood Hack: buy your airplane snacks before you go to the airport. Finally, Sarah recommends the Gardeners’ Question Time podcast from BBC Radio 4.

In episode 707, Dr. Nona Djavid teaches us how to rewire our internal blueprint — the subconscious programming and energy patterns that silently determine whether we thrive or struggle in our business. Dr. Nona Djavid is an entrepreneur, mom, speaker, and founder of the Part Time Million Dollar Business and eLIVate Club. With a background in neuroscience and a doctorate in chiropractic, she blends mindset mastery with energetics and business strategy to help entrepreneurs create the business and life of their dreams. She is also the author of eLIVate Your Life, and currently teaches entrepreneurs how to work just one week a month while scaling to multiple six or seven figures. In this episode, you'll learn how redefining your vision and identity can help you achieve radical freedom, scale your business, and cultivate deeper fulfillment in every area of life. Key points discussed include: - Craft an “unreasonable” vision: Allow yourself to dream big—even if it feels impossible—and let that vision guide your evolution. - Expand your identity: Success starts with becoming the version of yourself who can hold the life and business you desire. - Embody your future self daily: It's not just big moves—how you drink your coffee or answer emails matters when stepping into your next level. - Take aligned, “unreasonable” action: What seems bold now will feel natural once you've stepped into your elevated identity. - Prioritize your frequency: Whether it's a walk, journaling, or a quick reset, make energy and presence a daily non-negotiable. - Track your progress to build self-trust: Reflect often to see how far you've come—it builds confidence to keep moving forward. - Create daily rituals that feel good: Sustainable mindset shifts come from practices you enjoy and can return to consistently.
