Guillory, the dynamic CEO and founder of Nap Bar. Despite her high-energy demeanor, Khaliah's secret to maintaining such vigor lies in something deceptively simple: napping.Khaliah's journey to creating Nap Bar, the world's first black queer woman-owned luxury sleep suite, is rooted in her personal practice of prioritizing sleep. From her early days in corporate America, she scheduled daily naps, often finding unconventional spots like unused conference rooms or her car to recharge. This habit not only kept her energy levels high but also laid the groundwork for Nap Bar.One striking statistic Khaliah shared is that one out of every two Americans is sleep-deprived. This widespread issue underscored the need for a dedicated space where people could get quality rest. The data is compelling: a NASA study found that a 26-minute nap could increase productivity by up to 34% and alertness by 54%.Khaliah's vision for Nap Bar goes beyond providing a place to sleep. She aims to create eco-friendly, luxury sanctuaries where people can experience restorative sleep, even in the hustle and bustle of an airport. With partnerships with brands like West Elm and Lululemon, Nap Bar offers a home-away-from-home feel, complete with bamboo pajamas and high-quality sleep gear.Her recent success includes securing a ten-year contract at George Bush Intercontinental Airport in Houston, showcasing the growing recognition of the importance of sleep. Khaliah's commitment to raising awareness about sleep health extends to her Wefunder campaign, a crowdfunding effort to expand Nap Bar's reach and impact.Khaliah's story is a testament to the power of prioritizing rest and the transformative impact it can have on productivity and overall well-being. As she continues to advocate for sleep health, her journey inspires others to invest in rest, ultimately leading to healthier, more productive lives.Nap Bar is currently raising capital on Wefunder.tl;dr:1. Introduction of Khaliah O. Guillory and Nap Bar: Devin introduces Khaliah O. Guillory, the CEO and founder of Nap Bar. Despite being a very high-energy person, Khaliah emphasizes the importance of sleep and naps for maintaining her energy levels.2. Importance of Napping and Rest: Khaliah highlights the benefits of naps and restorative sleep, citing a NASA study that supports increased productivity and alertness from even short naps. She shares her personal routine of scheduling naps and the impact it has had on her success.3. Founding and Success of Nap Bar: Khaliah explains the inception of Nap Bar and its growth, including securing a ten-year contract to open a luxury sleep suite at George Bush Intercontinental Airport in Houston, Texas. She discusses the challenges and successes in the journey of establishing Nap Bar, including MVP testing and adapting during the pandemic.4. Expansion and Business Models: Khaliah details various business models for Nap Bar beyond airport rest stops, including partnerships with West Elm and Lululemon and potential collaborations with airlines, hospitals, college campuses, and sporting venues. She mentions efforts to scale Nap Bar through innovative solutions like the Metasnooze virtual reality experience.5. Crowdfunding Campaign on Wefunder: Khaliah talks about the ongoing crowdfunding campaign on Wefunder, emphasizing its importance in making the company visible and accessible even in the context of limited VC funding for black women founders. Devin provides details on how viewers can participate and support the campaign.How to Develop Prioritizing Rest As a SuperpowerKhaliah's superpower is her commitment to prioritizing rest and sleep. By integrating restorative sleep practices into her daily routine, she maintains high energy levels and productivity, enabling her to tackle the demands of entrepreneurship effectively.In 2017, while working in corporate America and facing high stress and long hours, Khaliah decided to change her bedtime habits. She moved her phone away from her bedside to avoid the temptation of checking emails first thing in the morning. This small change significantly improved her mental well-being, demonstrating how prioritizing rest can lead to better performance and a healthier mindset.Tips for Developing the Superpower* Schedule Naps: Make napping a non-negotiable part of your daily routine.* Bedtime Ritual: Establish a consistent bedtime ritual to signal your body it's time to sleep.* Limit Caffeine: Cut out caffeine ten hours before bed to avoid sleep disruptions.* Avoid Late Meals: Refrain from eating or drinking alcohol three hours before bedtime.* Work Cut-Off: Stop working at least two hours before bed to let your brain wind down.* Reduce Screen Time: Avoid screens and social media one hour before bed to minimize blue light exposure.* Skip the Snooze: When your alarm goes off, get up immediately to avoid grogginess from disrupted REM sleep.By following Khaliah's example and advice, you can make prioritizing rest a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

Scottish technology-led producer of green chemicals, Celtic Renewables, has launched its latest crowdfunding campaign with Crowdcube aiming to raise a minimum of £2.75 million to boost operational capacity and scale revenue growth. Scotland's first producer of green chemicals launches Crowdfunding campaign Celtic Renewables continues to lead the sustainable chemical revolution Celtic Renewables is the first in the world to produce and supply green chemicals to lower the carbon footprint of thousands of products like cosmetics, paints and household cleaners, and has recently sent its first production of bioacetone and biobutanol to distribution partner, Caldic, a company that creates bespoke solutions for the food, pharma, personal care and industrial markets. Funds raised from the Crowdcube campaign will be used to increase the global distribution of green chemicals, broadening the reach of products across multiple sectors where replacement of incumbent fossil fuel derived chemicals is most needed. Celtic Renewables has plans to build a further four biorefineries in the next four to five years with a combined product output of around 32,000 tonnes per year. Celtic Renewables makes its green chemicals at its flagship biorefinery in Grangemouth, Scotland. Their patented technology converts low-value by-products, residues and waste from a range of industries, such as food and drinks production, into high-value green chemicals. These green chemicals, namely bioacetone, biobutanol and bioethanol, are chemically identical to and can directly replace their gas and oil-derived equivalents (acetone, butanol and ethanol). Mark Simmers, CEO of Celtic Renewables, says: "The ultimate goal of this crowdfunding campaign is to allow us to scale what we are doing which will allow us to supply green chemicals to a long list of potential customers who are ready and waiting. "The timing is right and many companies and industries are eager to make the change to reduce their dependence on fossil fuels. Our technology offers a commercially proven and green alternative for the production of key chemicals and will lower the carbon footprint of everyday products like skin creams, nail varnish, household cleaning products, paints, medicines and vitamins. We have the momentum and potential to accelerate the defossilisation of the chemical industry and make everyday life more sustainable for consumers." The production of acetone, butanol and ethanol contributes significantly to CO2 emissions in the chemical sector, accounting for 18% of total industrial CO2 emissions globally. Celtic Renewables' production of bioacetone, biobutanol and bioethanol generates up to 70% less carbon emissions compared to petrochemical alternatives. Simmers adds: "We are working closely with our strategic partner Caldic to develop a list of initial customers for our green chemicals. The challenge is that the demand is huge and our Grangemouth plant will only supply a small fraction of what we really need to produce, so the pressure is on to grow the business and build bigger production plants." Global markets for acetone and butanol are estimated at $6.63 billion and $16.5 billion respectively and growing, according to Future Market Insights. Celtic Renewables' green chemicals have extensive applications spanning multiple industries and can completely displace petrochemical equivalents with an immediately addressable market of over $2 billion. Bettina Brierley, Product Group Leader Caldic UK, says: "We have been waiting for a solution like Celtic Renewables for a long time. We don't need to change consumer habits, but instead we can improve the products we make by ensuring they are not derived from fossil fuels. "This is the first real innovation that I have seen in the chemical space that is truly green, not just greenwashed. The beauty of the product is that the chemicals are made from residue materials, not food competing crops. Our customers which include manufacturers o...

It's the FINAL DAY of the Heartful equity crowdfunding campaign, with our public investment offer closing at 10pm AEDT on Thursday 2nd November, 2023. As of 8pm AEDT on Wednesday 1st November, Heartful had welcomed 109 new investors, with a total of $119,392.00 raised, something Jen is extraordinarily proud of and of course, very excited about. She touches on some of the recent successes of the campaign in this episode, delivered a little bit later than planned due to the extreme busyness of the past fortnight. To ensure you don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to invest in a purpose-driven, female-founded startup that aims to transform the Australian and New Zealand short-term accommodation sector into one that is more inclusive and sustainable, visit the Heartful Birchal campaign page at Heartful Group Pty Ltd - Reimagining the way we stay. Once 10pm AEDT rolls around, sadly there will be no further opportunities to invest at this early stage. It's time to seize the moment and put your hard-earned dollars where your values are!

Well, it's CRUNCH time in the Heartful equity crowdfunding campaign, with EOIs closing on Monday October 16th at 10pm AEDT and Jen needing to raise $50K during the private offer period (that's just 48 short hours!) in order for the public offer to go ahead. The private offer period opens at 12pm on Tuesday October 17th and will run until 12pm on Thursday October 19th, following which the public offer will open if Jen meets that ambitious target. If you didn't manage to submit an EOI but still want to invest in the private offer period and take advantage of Birchal's delayed payment terms, meaning you don't have to pay for your investment until the public offer ends on November 2nd, please shoot an email to Jen at jen@heartful.travel and she'll ensure you get sent an invite to the private offer.

A few days before my 44th birthday, I received the news managing my Celiac Disease and family history of diabetes had damaged my liver and made my non-alcoholic liver issues worse. So much so, that I am at a significant risk of liver failure in my lifetime. In a follow-up with my doctor about that news, I was also diagnosed with High Blood Pressure (Hypertension 2). To manage these health issues, I need to step away from the show, indefinitely, in the near future. To ensure that the podcast website, archives, and email address remain available, and the lights stay on for the show through these ups and downs without having to worry about where the money will come from, I've created a GoFundMe campaign to cover the show's expenses for the next 15 months while my team of doctors, specialists, and I work on creating and implementing a treatment plan that is manageable and will get me back to good health. Donate to the Crowdfunding Campaign: bit.ly/liver2024 Until the next time, spend each day caring for your self, so that you can keep caring for Earth and each other.

The ramblings of a mad man? In this bonus 'podette', if you will, author Nick Hammond asks if he's mad to stick his neck out with his latest Crowdfunding campaign instead of just playing it safe and doing the same old things everyone else has done for donkeys years. In explaining his reasoning for zigging when the rest of the world is zagging, Nick also tells us why a tiny fenced off plot in a slum village outside León, Nicaragua, shines like a beacon for a handful of impoverished schoolchildren there - and why he is determined to put some of them through school using this latest campaign . Happy Friday, folks.   Nick's Crowdfunding Campaign can be found HERE.
