We reconnect with Jason's long-time friend, Cyndi Gatterdam, and her husband, Chris Grecco. Cyndi has 20+ years experience in the bourbon industry, currently serving as the District Sales Manager at Republic National Distributing. In classic “Cocktail Confession” fashion, Jason and Yvonne discuss how bourbon has become an integral part of culture, a symbol of identity, and a bridge between generations. In this episode, we enjoy homemade cocktails by Jason – self-dubbed the “Best At-Home Bartender in Studio City.” The sounds of Jason making another round of drinks, setting glasses on the table, and the creaks of old, wooden floors in a 19th-century colonial home set the scene for a riveting conversation with our two dear friends. So please pull up a chair, pour yourself a glass, and enjoy. Please visit www.lagralanespirits.org/episodes/cyndichris for shownotes, transcripts, and more.

On today's episode, we are joined by Wade Shealy. With 40 years in the sector, Wade Shealy is one of America's top leaders in resort real estate development, marketing and sales. In 2010, in response to a market need to help second homeowners realize more value in their ownership, he founded and launched THIRDHOME, the industry's premier luxury property and travel club. Wade is recognized as the visionary force behind a series of high-profile real estate development projects. Most notably, the purchase, vision and development of Hampton Island, Georgia, an exemplary coastal community with one of the lowest impacts on the surrounding environment. Hampton Island, a 4,000-acre private community off the Georgia coast, was cited in Robb Report's “Best of the Best” as one of the top three private communities in North America. Hampton Island became the second home to Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, along with Robert and Lydia Mondavi, among other high-profile residents. The Hampton Island development was featured in numerous publications and won national awards for architecture and design. Wade graduated from the University of Georgia equipped for his future with far more than an Honors degree. Working for straight commission, 80 hours a week with the Southwestern Company selling bibles and educational books door-to-door, prepared him early on for many years ahead of entrepreneurial leadership. As a college student, Wade rose through the ranks to become one of the organization's top salespeople, along the way recruiting both the largest student team and the team selling the most volume, in Southwestern's 155-year history. As a District Sales Manager, he was named “District Sales Manager of the Year” for each of his four consecutive years in that role. In 1984, Wade began working in resort real estate, co-founding The Pinnacle Group in 1986 and growing it into one of the largest and most successful real estate companies on Hilton Head Island and the state of South Carolina. As Vice President of Intrawest, a premier North American mountain resort and adventure company, Wade directed sales and marketing for 12 different resorts with locations from New England to the Caribbean, successfully closing over $500 million in sales, annually. During his years in resort real estate, he developed and sold more than $3 billion in real estate. Wade has been featured in national and international publications, most notably the Wall Street Journal and Los Angeles Times. He also enjoys returning to his alma mater, the University of Georgia, as a frequent lecturer at the Business School, as well as to the College of Environment and Design in Landscape Architecture. Wade was instrumental in the creation of the Land Conservation Program for the State of Georgia and subsequently appointed by the Governor of Georgia, to the State Board of Land Conservation, serving for five years. Under Wade's direction, tens of thousands of acres of pristine land were protected. He was also appointed to the state's Marshland and Wetlands Protection Committee and voted the “Tree Friendly Developer” for the state of Georgia. Wade lives on a horse farm outside Nashville in Franklin, Tennessee. Besides his horses, Wade also raises bees and chickens. Inspired by his early background in nature preservation, he designed and built a natural swimming pond on his farm, one of the first of its kind in the U.S. Wade has three children, his youngest attends Arizona State University, his daughter lives in Greenville SC and is an entrepreneur with a very successful Medical Spa, and his oldest son is a Professor of Sustainable Civil Engineering at Virginia Tech.

Inspired by Lee's original "Dirt Pile" story, we decided to ask the crew about their toughest personal moments since leaving Southwestern. This will be a Part 1. Enjoy the stories from Pat, Andres, and Alecia. Lee's original story - https://youtu.be/sTQNQ7x5gIU?si=S4HjfdWmEjpoo6Zy About our panel: Alecia Huck is the founder of MAVERICK & Company, a management consultant, sought-after speaker, and author. She specializes in helping leadership teams of fast-growing companies build the critical skills, tools, systems and processes they need. She is known for working closely with leaders to customize solutions, protect existing culture, and fix what is broken without “going corporate.” Experienced in industries from construction to criminal justice, Alecia is proud to work with entrepreneurs so they can spend less time fighting fires and more time building what matters. Though he studied astronomy & meteorology as an undergrad, Lee received a Master's degree in English from the University of Kansas. While he was there, Lee was a mild-mannered lecturer in the English department by day, and a member of a touring glam rock band by night. Complete with pyrotechnics and makeup. His band just finished their Final Reunion after playing 45 years together—see Facebook. As an undergrad, he traveled a thousand miles away from home and ran his own business selling books with Southwestern Advantage—which is a direct sales program. Lee was a top salesperson that summer, and over the next seven years, was a top experienced salesperson, recruiter, and manager every year. Southwestern promoted Lee to Director of Marketing & Sales Development, in charge of Southwestern's training, and finally became the Director of Leadership Development worldwide. He helped train more than 100,000 college students there over the course of 36 years. In addition, Lee has taught at Vanderbilt's Owen School of Management and is currently a professor at two universities in Nashville, teaching business, literature, & communication courses. He also is a certified John Maxwell trainer and life coach.In his non-work life, Lee trains and competes with the U.S. Masters swim team. He is a deacon at his church, is a certified storm spotter, and also a face reader…. His wife is a physician at Vanderbilt, and they have three grown children who enjoy rock music and correcting people's grammar. Patrick Roach started Southwestern Real Estate in 2007 at the request of the CEO of Southwestern/Great American Inc., Henry Bedford. When I started SWRE, I was brand new to the industry. I decided to learn the business by interviewing other Managing Brokers in my market to learn what it takes to be successful as a Realtor. Office to office, I found myself hearing some of the same principles, but as I looked around those offices I saw A LOT of unsuccessful Realtors hanging around the office. I knew then that if I was going to succeed, I would need to insulate myself from that type of mediocrity. I created a set of principles that would chart my course so that I would become excellent at the work of a Realtor, keep my clients' interests first and foremost, and earn my future business by the referrals of happy clients. Today I am one of the top producing agents in the Chicagoland market and I've surrounded myself with others that are focused on becoming truly great at this career – I find that inspiring. Patrick has a bachelor's degree from Wheaton College in History/Social Science. He paid his way through college by selling educational products door-to-door in the Southwestern Company's summer internship, which led to a 10-year career as a District Sales Manager helping to lead that program. He lives in Glen Ellyn with his wife Jenny and their three children. He is an avid music enthusiast and is happy to pass along his newest find. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pony-tales/support

With some measurable rain in the forecast for much of Wisconsin, growers are really focused on trying to get as much done in their fields as they can. Cooper Humphries is the District Sales Manager for Columbia, Dodge and Jefferson Counties. He says the soybeans being harvested are dry, but yields continue to vary. Corn-wise, Humphries says that's variable too. Moisture levels this week are ranging between 17% and 30%, so some fields will need to wait. Waiting might be tough if some of those plants sucked nutrients from the stalk to build an ear back in August. Scouting those vulnerable fields today, before the rain shows up, might be to a growers advantage. He's also planning to keep an eye on test weights when the corn harvest hits full speed. Speaking of advantage, Wyffels Hybrids is in the process of building a new brick and mortar facility just outside of Ames, Iowa to help with product supply.

In this episode of Inside Great Minds with Adam Outland, we have a special guest I have looked up to as a mentor and example. Dan Moore joins me and shares incredible nuggets of inspiration from his new book, Control, Influence, Accept (For Now) Coping with a Future No One Can Predict. Dan grew up in Los Alamos, New Mexico, and was an honors graduate of Harvard. He holds an MBA, with honors, from Vanderbilt's Owen Graduate School of Management, where he was named class speaker. He started in the business world the same way many of us have: as a college student running his own business -- in the Southwestern Advantage Summer Sales and Leadership Program. Southwestern Advantage is the oldest direct-selling company in America and the founding member of the Southwestern Family of Companies based in Nashville. Dan paid his tuition to Harvard by selling educational books door-to-door to families and building sales teams. Dan was promoted to District Sales Manager with Southwestern Advantage upon graduation. He pioneered many roles within the company, eventually serving as Vice-President of Marketing for many years. He is credited with modernizing the company's sales school and mission statement, developing its highly-regarded product line, and helping to launch new businesses within the company. In July of 2007, he was named President of Southwestern. From an 18-year-old summer intern to President, he never worked anywhere else. He served on the company's Board of Directors until his retirement in January 2023. He presently serves on the boards of the Direct Selling Association and the Direct Selling Education Foundation. He is also a Co-Founder of SBR Consulting and Southwestern Consulting, also members of the Southwestern Family of Companies. These firms are dedicated to elevating sales globally by transforming the culture of sales and sales leadership within their client companies. In total, he taught more than 100,000 people how to sell, how to lead, and how to get on the path toward achieving their goals in life. Dan also served as an adjunct faculty member at Vanderbilt's Owen Graduate School of Business and speaks regularly to business and collegiate audiences. In his spare time, he enjoys playing the guitar and piano and is an avid runner. Since the age of 51, he has completed 24 half-marathons in four countries and also completed in the 2011 New York City Marathon finishing in the top half out of more than 46,000 runners. He is a past Master of Ceremonies for TEDx Nashville. Dan met his wife, Maria, through selling books together when they were students. She is from Portugal. They have been married for 45 years and have three adult children and one grandchild.
Wyffels hybrids are focused on research and information gathering. For 10 years, Wyffels has been conducting their own in-field research to try and help guide producers on product selection and management decisions. Andy Grebner, District Sales Manager for Dane & Green Counties, says that's why he put out more than 87 sticky yellow traps to monitor corn rootworm insect levels specifically. Grebner says they really noticed escalated numbers on the continuous corn fields. Regardless of insects, the dry weather across all of his trade territory is impacting yields. "Variability - that's the phrase I'm hearing most," according to Grebner. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Anthony Hobaica has always been relentlessly competitive. He graduated at the top of his class in 2009 from Hobart College as a three-year starter as a running back. Anthony began competing in powerlifting in 2002 at age 15. He quickly came up the ranks, holding world records in both raw-wrapped and sleeve categories, including three overall Arnold XPC Championships and totaling ten times his body weight in 181 and 198 classes. In the 2017 Animal Cage, he completed an expo lift (one squat, one bench, and one dead), totaling ten times his body weight in less than 60 seconds. Anthony has always been a fan of the entire sport of powerlifting, so in 2020 he transitioned into equipped lifting with his eyes set on becoming the lightest man in history to squat over 1000 pounds. In September 2022, he successfully squatted 1010 pounds at 191.5. When Anthony isn't competing, he works as a District Sales Manager in the construction industry, overseeing 60+ employees in Nevada, Utah, and Arizona. He and his wife, Melissa own a private gym in Las Vegas, NV, called Back Alley Barbell, where they promote old-school team lifting concepts in both raw and geared powerlifting.

Mr. DeLorenzo is a founding partner in MYT Group, LLC, which launched as a formal business entity in 2009.

Listen as our guest shares with us how a commitment to shared values created a need for a Family Office to steward his family's resources in a way that impacts not only generations of family members, but an entire community, as well, and how communication and clarification of objectives helps maintain trust, respect, and good dynamics within the family. Rob McLaughlin worked his way from District Sales Manager to Senior VP of Sales and Marketing in Advance Food Company, the business his father David co-founded in 1973.

Rob earned a BBA in Marketing from Texas Christian University's Neeley School of Business. He has served on the boards of the Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma and Westminster School and currently serves on the boards of Watermark Bank, i2E Management Company, the McLaughlin Family Foundation, and Young Presidents Organization OKC.

In this special episode we are joined by Max Gurney, who will celebrate his 101st birthday on June 10, 2022! The Pan Am Museum and the entire worldwide Pan Am community wish him the happiest of birthdays! Max is a 45-year veteran of Pan Am and a living legend within the airline community. He is also the godfather to His Serine Highness, Prince Albert II of Monaco. Max was kind enough to invite host Tom Betti into his home for a chat.He tells us about his childhood, serving in the U.S. Army under General Patton during World War II, and then beginning his storied career at Pan Am after the war. Max Gurney joined Pan American Airways in 1946 as a ticket counter agent at the Marine Terminal at La Guardia Airport, located in Flushing, New York. Because of his ability to speak four languages, he was quickly promoted to Sales Manager in Dakar, Senegal with jurisdiction over five countries in West Africa.In 1949, Max opened the Pan Am office in Milan, and was reassigned shortly after in 1950 to Beirut as Sales Manager on loan to Middle East Airlines (MEA), as part of a management contract with Pan Am. He was responsible for airline operations in six Middle East countries including Saudi Arabia.In 1951, he was appointed Assistant District Sales Manager in Rome, Italy covering six countries, and then transitioned in 1957 to Senior Representative and District Sales Manager for Southern France based in Nice where he formed a very close personal friendship with Monaco's Prince Rainier III and his wife, Princess Grace, the former American actress Grace Kelly. Their friendship grew so close that when their son Prince Albert was born, the Prince and Princess asked Max to be the child's godfather.In 1972, Max was transferred to Nassau as Managing Director for the Bahamas, including the Freeport and Rock Sound stations, until the Bahamas offices were closed in 1976. He subsequently became District Traffic and Sales Manager in Oslo, Norway until 1980, and then once again returned to Monaco as Pan Am Sales Manager. This was because of his close personal friendship with Prince Rainier and Princess Grace.He held this position until the closure of Pan Am in 1991 and assisted with the transition to Pan Am's successor in the market.--------------------Visit Us for more Pan Am History!

(Taylor does not manufacture any guitars in Asia.)

Episode HighlightsOne restaurant in Montego Bay called Pelican is highly recommended from its good Jamaican food and ambiance. It has an open-air seating with a man-made waterfall in the background. A really cool bar from the South Coast called Pelican Bar is located in the middle of the ocean. Montego Bay is one of the two international airports which is mostly used for visitors. The majority of hotels in Jamaica are along the North Coast. Kingston, which is the capital city of Jamaica, is where the other international airport is located. It is mostly used by urban travelers. Kingston became a genuine international destination for people who are engaged in cultural experience. A number of hotels opened up in this area such as Marriott Hotel, Courtyard by Marriott, Jamaica Pegasus and many more. In terms of the travel protocols, Jamaica doesn't have a vaccine mandate to enter the country. However, a testing requirement is needed before you can enter Jamaica. Within 72 hours of your flight, you need to take an Antigen Test or PCR Test and must test negative. You also have to fill out a Travel Authorization to enter the country. If you want to experience a VIP treatment once you've entered the country of Jamaica and before you leave, then you must purchase what they call Club Mobay. It will give you a VIP experience moments after stepping out of the plane or after your airline check-in when departing the island.

[2:56]How do you prepare for conversations with your team regarding critical decisions? [7:00]…and many moreQuotes“Leadership is always a challenge but especially in difficult times...the way you communicate, it needs to change, it's so important during a crisis, and you know, I think in a crisis your team's imagination can get the best of them, particularly within a large group [sic] and you are alone as a leader…and as a leader, you really need to communicate with your team in a transparent way, in a way that's realistic, and in a way that's optimistic.” [5:54]“As a sales leader, you want to tell people what the immediate term plan is. What are we doing right now to get through this, to get over this, to beat this? What's the mid-term plan, and then what's the long-term plan? And then, account for all different external factors that you might have had to control for so that they know there's a plan.” [8:30]“It's important that they feel like there's a steady hand on the wheel, so they know what to expect.” [9:03]“One of the first things you should do when times are tough is figure out how to communicate to your customers what your true value is, how much value you are creating for their organization, and give them a way to count it.

This week we welcome Chris Howells, Aprilaire Senior Product Manager Ventilation and Purification Systems, to talk HVAC & IAQ: What Works!. We have very recently had some excellent building science shows with Joe Lstiburek and Nate Adams. It seems like a good time to see what a major manufacturers' Product Manager for Ventilation and Purification can tell us what he sees out in the field. Chris grew up working in the HVAC industry with his grandfather in North Texas. That experience has led to over 25 years in the trade. He spent most of his career thus far in the field as a service technician, installer, comfort advisor and owner of a business. After his time in the field, he served as a Technical Service Manager and trainer for a distributor of a major equipment line. He started his career with Aprilaire in 2015 and has filled multiple roles as a District Sales Manager and Regional Manager. Now as the Senior Product Manager of ventilation and purification, Chris continues to express his passion for the Building Science and HVAC to all in the industry. Serving others by providing the knowledge of all the attributes that create a more comfortable and healthier environment for the occupants while offering the home the protection it needs to facilitate a healthy home is what drives Chris' unmatched passion for the Indoor Air Quality industry. Chris has trained thousands of people on the importance of IAQ within the industry including HVAC contractors, distributors, engineers, new home sales teams, raters and inspectors. Aprilaire believes everyone deserves healthy air, especially in their own homes! That starts with knowledge of what makes up the quality of the air in our homes and buildings. Chris and Aprilaire are grateful for the opportunity to be a part of this event today.

How can dealers self-evaluate and prepare for change at their stores? In a conversation loaded with actionable advice, Durran Cage leaves us with this nugget: Use praise to reinforce the behaviors you want more of at your dealership. Self-evaluation and process optimization is important, but equally important to the success of your dealership is the buy-in of your team. Durran Cage is a 15-year veteran of retail automotive. He began his career on the sales floor, moving up then over to Chrysler, where he became a District Sales Manager in Memphis, TN. In 2008, as the economy stumbled, Durran saw promise and opportunity in online sales and marketing. Putting it to work worked for him and his team, and a few years later Durran moved from dealership to consulting. In 2018, he founded his own company, Cage Automotive, where he and his team impact the employee and customer experience on all levels. Like this episode?

Why are we waiting so long for appliances to be delivered after they are ordered? This question is answered by Jacob Bledsoe, District Sales Manager with Thermador. Nancy and Jake also discussed the history of Thermador and some of the appliances they invented and also introduced the new appliances for 2021. Thermador's History and "Firsts" Thermador is part of BSH Home Appliances Corporation, a fully owned subsidiary of BSH Hausgeräte GmbH, the second largest appliance manufacturer in the world. The Thermador brand specializes in cooking appliance equipment such as ovens, ranges, cooktops, refrigerators and dishwashers. Thermador invented the first wall oven and cooktop, and introduced stainless steel to home appliances.[2] By 1948, Thermador introduced the first "Pro Range" for residential use.[3] Patterned after commercial restaurant equipment, Thermador developed the first home version warming drawer in 1952, a handy kitchen appliance that keeps dishes and foods warm while the oven is being used. Thermador continued to improve on kitchen appliances with the first self-cleaning oven in 1963. Exciting News for Thermador Star Dry System in our Dishwashers The 48” Steam Range w/ 6 Gas Star Burner's and an Induction Griddle. New Double and single ovens Free-standing French Door Refrigerator General Advice for making appliance purchase decision. You should be selecting appliances very early in the design process and be ready to make a down payment on your appliances and verify that your appliances are ordered with your dealer. Make sure to provide the dealer with updates as your project progress as to when you'll need the appliances so they can make sure appliances will be available. For many, COVID is over but the economic effects will be here to stay for many years to come without a significant drop in demand appliances. Many manufacturer's will be having price increases. So the moral is order your appliances as early as possible, up to 4-5 months and earlier for most major appliance brands or be prepared to take whatever your dealer can get This podcast sponsored by Thermador Appliances & Monogram Appliances email comments to Nancy@NancyHugo.com --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/homedesignchat-with-nancy/support

“For us to be successful in sobriety, we must fill the void left by alcohol.” -Russel Brand, Recovery: Freedom from Our Addictions Drinking plays a big role in our lives. Many of our social gatherings revolve around it. We use it to relax or to deal with difficult emotions. When we quit drinking, a void is then created that can be felt across many areas of our lives. What do we do with this? Should we fill it? With what? When the void is present, some try to use willpower to ignore it or to muscle through or around it. Unfortunately, studies show that willpower is a finite resource and can not be solely relied upon to quit successfully. If the void (also known as the emotional and spiritual causes of alcoholism) isn't properly dealt with, one can become what is known as a “dry drunk.” The behaviors, coping mechanisms, and mindsets of the alcoholic are still present; the only difference is the lack of alcohol consumption. In sobriety, we find ourselves with more... more time, more energy, and more mental clarity. It's important to fill this time and spend this energy in a healthy and productive way so that the reasons for the void's existence begin to disappear as we lay a healthy and solid foundation for living. Find things you like to do, and more importantly, find the communities surrounding those activities and do your best to become a part of them. Chrissy, with 2 and ½ years, talks about how she married her drinking buddy: SHOW NOTES [12:50] Paul Introduces Chrissy. Chrissy has been sober for 2 and ½ years. She's from Mill Valley, California. 48 years old. District Sales Manager. Mother of two teenage boys. She has two dogs. Married. [14:42] When did you first realize you had a drinking problem? She used to be in denial. She married her drinking buddy. Started dabbling to get out of her head. Became a problem when she moved to a town where everyone drank. Started drinking daily. Lead to a health scare. [17:10] What was it like to find out you had Grade A Liver Cirrhosis? She lost a lot of weight. She was mistaken for someone who was pregnant. Ignored swelling abdomen and yellow eyes. Eventually couldn't ignore symptoms. The doctor called her an alcoholic. She says the doctor is a good place to go for help. [20:50] Did you ever attempt to moderate or control your drinking? She always tried to manage it. She had an idea for a perfect medium buzz. The health scare is what made her consider quitting. [22:47] What was it like when you first quit? It took a few weeks for her body to repair itself. She now gets checked up regularly. [25:30] What did you learn about yourself during this process? Once the fog was lifted, she began to ponder why she drank. Now she says it isn't important. It's more important to stay sober. Year 1 was “how do I stay sober?” and now year 2 is “how do I manage my emotions?”. Year 3 is now easier and more relaxing. [27:10] What was it like to cut ties with alcohol completely? She felt like she was kicking her best friend to the curb. She had to get it out of her immediate surroundings. At first, she felt sad, was white knuckling it. Now she feels that quitting drinking was the one thing that changed her life completely. [31:17] What does a day in recovery look like for you? A neighbor took her to a meeting. Found a sponsor. Podcasts. Reading books. Surrounding myself with sobriety. Changed her priorities.. recovery, then family, then work. [33:25] What was it like to marry your drinking buddy? She used to blame him a lot for her drinking. She noticed that he drinks less. They did therapy together. She's focusing on herself. She's not sure whether or not her husband is an alcoholic. [36:00] What advice do you have for someone in recovery which is with someone who drinks? Changed her perspective. Release me from the bondage of “self”. She focuses on herself. She sees her partner more with compassion. [39:40] What do you have to say to a person who is scared of quitting because they feel they might become depressed? Reach out and get some help. Any hospital will help you to quit drinking. Get to a safe place... get over the hump, just for a few days. [42:20] Rapid Fire Round What was your worst memory from drinking? After delivering a baby, all she wanted to do was get home and have a drink. Did you ever have an “oh-shit” moment? When a colleague told her that her eyes were yellow. What’s your plan moving forward? Continue to stay in the middle of the herd. Continue to work with the sponsor, and keep going. What’s your favorite resource in recovery? Her community in recovery. What’s the best advice you’ve ever received (on sobriety)? “If your ass falls off, pick it up and come to a meeting.” What parting piece of guidance can you give listeners who are in recovery or thinking about quitting drinking? If you're thinking about it, just go for it. If it's not for you, you'll know. You might be an alcoholic if...
