In this episode, I break down the real difference between these two polishing types and when you should use each. Whether you're a DIYer or a pro detailer, understanding this difference can save you time, deliver better results, and make your polishing process more efficient.

He also enjoys riding his bicycle and eating spicey hot peppers!

Should you buy duplicate wardrobe staple pieces? Most stylists say no, but I'm making the strategic case for why buying multiples of what truly works might be the smartest wardrobe move you're not making.

In this jam-packed hour, he shares his extensive knowledge gained over 35 years as a kitchen and bath designer, and let me tell you, it's a treasure trove of wisdom. We kick things off with Eric urging us to consider the entire project plan before diving into countertop selection. It's all about the big picture, folks! Why waste time and money installing a countertop only to realize you need to replace the cabinets underneath it? Eric's advice is clear: do it all at once to save yourself from a world of pain later on.Throughout the show, Eric unpacks the various materials that can grace our countertops. He's got the scoop on everything from the classic beauty of marble to the modern durability of quartz. But wait—there's more! He introduces us to the wonders of sintered stone and paper stone, which are shaking up the countertop game. With a sprinkle of humor and a dash of personal stories, Eric paints a picture of how to choose the right material based on your lifestyle, budget, and the look you're going for.

Consider man-made materials like quartz for their durability and stain resistance, especially in busy kitchens. Sintered stone is becoming popular for outdoor kitchens due to its durability against extreme weather conditions. If you're going for a DIY project, materials like paper stone offer a unique aesthetic and are surprisingly manageable. Don't forget to think about the backsplash materials simultaneously when designing your kitchen or bathroom surfaces.

Window installation may not instantly grab your attention, but for anyone involved in building or renovating, it's a critical aspect that cannot be neglected. Think about why we have windows: they connect our living spaces with the outside world, offering natural light, beautiful views, and essential ventilation. However, beyond these obvious reasons, there is a layer of complexity and science in window installation that is necessary to explore further.When it comes to window installation, the type of window is fundamentally essential. Each type has its nuances. It's these differences that require us to break down and approach each installation uniquely. Matt aptly noted during our latest podcast that while there are some industry standards, every project has nuance and a unique set of challenges.If you're navigating window installations—whether you're a seasoned builder or an enthusiastic DIYer, it's about more than just inserting glass into a gap.

In the 92nd episode of WGI Unleashed, we're excited to introduce you to Jason Miholovitz, PLA, our Director of Landscape Architecture, who joins us from WGI's West Palm Beach Corporate Headquarters! With over 20 years of experience, Jason's deep passion for design and a thoughtful leadership style have helped shape WGI's national landscape architecture practice, and his story is just as inspiring as the spaces he helps create each and every day. From Sketches to Studios Like many, Jason's love for design started at an early age - Inspired by his high school drafting classes and a natural talent for drawing, he pursued the study of architecture at the University of Florida, where he ultimately refined his interests and discovered his passion for landscape architecture. After graduation, a job fair frisbee - and a well-timed beer koozie - led him to his first role within the industry.... And the rest, as they say, is history. The chance encounter sparked a 10-year career with his first firm, where he met his wife, built a foundation in public-sector work, and eventually launched his current career with WGI. Designing for Both People and Place Today, Jason leads five landscape architecture studios across the nation, each with its own unique identity and design approach. Under his guidance, the group blends the best of both worlds - public and private sector work - offering clients a depth of experience that they can't find elsewhere. From vibrant parks and public spaces to amenity-rich pool decks atop high-rises, Jason's portfolio of projects reflects his belief that landscape architecture is about more than aesthetics - it's about creating a sense of space that people can love. His favorite part of the career that has brought him so much? Visiting parks he's helped design and watching his son enjoy the very spaces he's helped bring to life. A Culture of Creativity and Trust And if you're wondering what keeps Jason inspired at WGI, that's simple.... It's the people - and the freedom to lead with trust. He's proud of the collaborative, cross-functional environment he's helped foster, where each studio operates like its own small business, giving team members room to grow, experiment, and shape their own paths. That same autonomy Jason values in his own role is what he now passes down to his team. It's a leadership philosophy rooted in respect, accountability, and empowering others to take creative risks. Life Outside the Office When not leading national design studios, Jason enjoys staying close to home with his wife and son. He's a hands-on DIYer, working on home projects and restoring classic cars - including a ‘69 Camaro passed down from his father. And while he's traded the college party scene for backyard soccer and family trips to Key West, Jason wouldn't have it any other way. Tune In This episode is filled with great stories—from childhood bike rides in South Florida to building a nationwide team of talented designers.

It started with a few innocent dog scratches. My dog Daisy was itching like crazy, and I began to wonder: could it be her food? One Google search later, I found myself tumbling headfirst into a raw dog food rabbit hole—complete with Facebook ads, blog articles, YouTube videos, and a subscription box I could not refuse.

Spring is here and you know what that means—time to whip your home back into shape! Eric G is here to serve up a comprehensive spring home maintenance checklist that'll have your pad looking fresh and ready to take on the warm months ahead. From cleaning out gutters to checking your HVAC system (seriously, don't skip that one), we're diving into all the essential tasks you need to tackle to keep your abode in tip-top shape. And let's be real—who wants to deal with a busted AC in the middle of a heatwave? Not us! So grab your toolbelt, maybe a snack (hey, maintenance is hard work!), and let's get our homes ready for a fabulous spring!Spring has sprung, and you know what that means: it's time for our annual home maintenance checklist! Eric G is here to guide us through the essential steps that will keep our homes as fresh as a daisy this season. Whether you're a seasoned DIYer or someone who just wants to ensure their castle is in tip-top shape, this checklist is your golden ticket. From checking on your HVAC systems to cleaning those pesky gutters, Eric spills the beans on everything you need to do to prepare your home for the sunshine and warmth. First up, let's talk about the HVAC system. Eric strongly emphasizes the importance of annual servicing for your air conditioner or heat pump. Seriously, folks, don't play with fire—err, I mean, don't let your system break down just because you skipped that yearly check-up. He shares personal anecdotes about the time he learned this lesson the hard way (and trust us, it's not pretty). Remember, a little preventive maintenance goes a long way! Next, we venture outside to tackle the garden and landscaping. Trimming those overgrown bushes and ensuring proper airflow around your AC unit is crucial. Eric even throws in some humorous anecdotes about his own battles with nature—think yellow jackets and the chaos that ensued. As the episode progresses, we cover everything from cleaning out window wells to checking for dangerous insect nests.

"The movement in my wardrobe kind of translated to movement in my own life." This profound insight from a participant in my recent style workshop shows that wardrobe changes aren't just superficial adjustments, they can be catalysts for meaningful personal growth. In this episode, I explore how: Removing clothes that no longer feel authentic creates space for growth in all areas of life Choosing items that reflect your true self creates a virtuous cycle of authenticity Understanding your personality type can guide wardrobe choices that support your development journey The integration of your cognitive functions (like introverted/extraverted tendencies) can be expressed and supported through intentional style choices As we approach midlife, we naturally begin integrating previously underdeveloped aspects of our personality. Your wardrobe can either hinder or accelerate this process. What have you noticed about the connection between your wardrobe changes and life changes?
