Ashley Ching is the founder and CEO of InHaven, a company standardizing vacation rentals with hotel-grade essentials and service. After 13 years at Tiffany & Co., she saw how consistent standards create unforgettable experiences and brought that rigor to short-term rentals. Susan and Ashley talk about standards, scale, and service. What You'll Learn About: • How a free research study can turbocharge credibility, conferences, and customers • What Tiffany's playbook taught Ashley about pairing consistency with authenticity • How Westin's Heavenly Bed reset guest expectations across an entire industry • The five pillars great operators share—and the warning signs when each starts wobbling • How grouping by shared demand drivers sharpens ops and marketing • Why too many owners tank speed, focus, and sanity • Why empowered on-the-ground pros outdeliver policy-bound HQs • How hospitality hits dis-economies of scale and where the hidden labor costs lurk • How a new vacation-rental quality framework helps guests know what they're booking Our Top Three Takeaways 1. Consistency + Authenticity = Guest Trust Ashley draws on her Tiffany & Co. background to show that hospitality success hinges on balancing certainty (clear, dependable standards) with authenticity (local character and uniqueness). Just as Westin's Heavenly Bed redefined consistency in hotels, In Haven is working to create a reliability framework for vacation rentals so guests know what to expect without losing the charm of individual homes. 2. The Five Pillars of Successful Hospitality Management From her case study of Vacasa, Aimbridge, and decades of roll-ups before them, Ashley identified five pillars that predict whether management companies succeed or fail: Curated portfolio (avoiding too many "bad apples"), Properties grouped by similar demand drivers, Limited number of owners, Local-oriented operations, Empowered hospitality professionals. When these pillars erode—especially through over-centralization or owner overload—companies face churn, brain drain, and eventual collapse. 3. Bigger Isn't Always Better: Diseconomies of Scale in Hospitality Contrary to the industry's obsession with scale, Ashley's research shows that large property managers often face rising costs rather than savings. Unlike manufacturing, where size brings efficiency, hospitality is labor-intensive and complexity grows with scale. More units mean more staff layers, owner demands, and overhead—leading to diseconomies of scale instead of the promised efficiencies.

Ever wonder why some foods feel impossible to stop eating? We pull back the curtain on how ultra-processed products are engineered to hook your taste buds, spike your blood sugar, and keep you coming back—while quietly nudging up your risk for type 2 diabetes, mood swings, and gut disruption. With nutritionist Julie Ruelle from Go Coco, we translate the science into everyday choices that protect your hormones, energy, and sanity.We start by separating helpful processing—like freezing vegetables or turning milk into yogurt—from ultra-processed foods packed with dyes, stabilizers, artificial sweeteners, and ingredients your grandparents wouldn't recognize. Julie breaks down the label tricks behind words like “healthy” and “vegan,” and shows how to scan ingredient lists before nutrition panels. From there, we explore the gut-brain axis: why additives and quick carbs can inflame your microbiome, trigger cravings, and derail your mood and focus. You'll learn how probiotic foods (yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut) and prebiotic fibers (whole grains, beans, veggies, fruit) rebuild your gut—and how noticeable improvements often start within two weeks. We share practical ideas: replace the 60-gram sugar coffee drink with a home version using cinnamon and vanilla, upgrade cereal by choosing short-ingredient options and adding nuts and berries, and swap fruit bars for whole fruit plus seeds. We also talk organic priorities for meats and dairy, and why calorie counting can mislead you when nutrient density is the bigger lever.If you're ready to step off the sugar-crash roller coaster and build meals that steady your energy and mood, this conversation gives you the roadmap—clear, doable, and built for real life.

In Romans 15:14–21, Paul reminds us that we are filled, called, empowered, and sent. God doesn't just save you, He fills you with His goodness, calls you by His grace, empowers you through His Spirit, and sends you out on mission.This message challenges us to see that spiritual maturity isn't about settling down, it's about stepping out. You already have what it takes because God has already placed it inside you. When grace calls, grace equips. And when you stay connected to the Spirit, His power flows through you.Whether you're in ministry, at work, or just trying to live out your faith day to day, this message will remind you that your purpose is bigger than your comfort. Like Paul, may we all say, “Here I am, send me.”

In this episode, Jeff Mains sits down with Casey Woo, a renowned tech operator, investor, and co-founder of the Operators Guild. Casey introduces the concept of the “Scaler”—an elite generalist who thrives in the chaotic, ever-changing environment of early-stage SaaS startups. The conversation dives deep into what makes scalers indispensable, why specialists often struggle in startup settings, and how AI is shifting the landscape for operators and business leaders. Casey offers practical frameworks, shares battle-tested leadership lessons, and explains how founders can build more resilient and focused teams to avoid the burnout common among high-performing scalers and ops leaders.Key Takeaways00:00 "From Loneliness to Operators Guild"03:25 "Misleading Job Titles and Roles"09:47 "AI Reshapes Roles, Specialists Evolve"11:08 "Rise of Special Forces in Business"15:04 "Balancing Focus and Ambition"19:45 "Focus on Core Business Metrics"21:05 Pitfalls of Over-Hiring Too Early27:06 "Quality Checks, Trust, and Community"27:57 "Staying Engaged to Master AI Tools"33:07 "AI Fluency as Essential Skillset"37:11 "Understanding Diverse Business Languages"39:23 Operators Guild & FOG Investing CommunityTweetable Quotes“We are not defined by titles—we are multidisciplinary, and we are elite specialists at being generalists.” — Casey Woo“The earlier you go, the more change there is per day. You need people who can adapt and wear multiple hats.” — Casey Woo“AI isn't replacing the scaler—it's making the generalist even more indispensable.” — Casey Woo“Special Forces in business are the cross-functional scalers—the people who get dropped in and get it done.” — Casey Woo“Valuations aren't free. Be careful what you raise at, because expectations get baked into every round.” — Casey Woo“If you give someone 15 things to do, that's a lot. Do they need to do all 15? Prioritize ruthlessly.” — Casey WooSaaS Leadership LessonsEmbrace Generalism: In the early stage, leadership isn't about titles—learn to thrive by solving whatever needs attention, from product to operations.Ruthless Prioritization: Success comes from choosing the right battles. Cut down initiatives to what truly moves the needle.Build and Rely on Community: Leverage peer networks like Operators Guild for continuous learning, sharing, and staying ahead of rapid changes (especially with AI).Adapt Your Communication: Learn to “Google Translate” your messaging for different internal stakeholders—speak to engineers, marketers, and founders in their language.Invest in Scalable Systems Early: Upgrade infrastructure in anticipation of growth, not after; it's easier and more cost-effective to implement before complexity grows.Balance Aggression and Prudence: Being aggressive can win markets, but unchecked overextension leads to down rounds and organizational pain.

Ep. 146 Is heightened intuition a gift or a trauma response? Why is it stronger for some than others, and what is the science behind why some people have ‘psychic' abilities? Laura Day, world-renowned intuitive and bestselling author of Practical Intuition and her new book The Prism, is diving into why our unique childhood experiences & ‘wounds' can determine the ways in which our intuition may express as an adult. Laura grew up in a chaotic home affected by suicide, manic depression, and narcissism, effectively raising her siblings alone, and is sharing how her beginning actually became the portal to discovering her intuitive gifts. She breaks down the important difference between intuition and wisdom, and why intuition can be both a superpower and a stumbling block depending on how we develop it. HERE'S THE JUICE - Breaking down how she developed her gift for intuition through trauma, highlighting  how many of our childhoods are prone to trauma due to lack of power - Laura shares her early life experiences – coming from three generations of physicians, and how that gave her a data-driven approach to intuition - Why the very things that challenged us most often become our points of greatest strength and tangible steps to identify our challenges and take small steps to create the life we want - The importance of avoiding the trap of constantly trying to “change yourself” and instead approaching the mind as a mechanical system that may only need a small change - The crucial difference between intuition and wisdom - Why intuition is a double-edged sword and when we should and shouldn't listen to it   TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Laura speaking on Gift and trauma of intuition 03:09 Laura Day's Story 09:24 The science behind intuition 15:38 The role of trauma in intuition 22:09 The mechanics of change and the importance of small changes 29:32 Understanding intuition and its limits 35:30 Empowered realistic thinking 36:21 Navigating self-perception and growth 40:07 The power of reparenting and healing 51:47 Understanding ergo centers and intuition 01:05:02 Setting goals and embracing change   MY MUSIC IS OFFICIALLY OUT NOW ⭐️❤️

What does it really look like to step into your highest, most secure self? In this final part of The Truth About Healing series, I'm breaking down what happens as you move out of the messy middle and start embodying your emotionally regulated, securely attached self. We're diving into what this stage of healing actually feels like, what no one talks about, and how to stay aligned as you continue to grow.Inside the episode:How to move from the “messy middle” into your highest and best self — without chasing perfection.What realignment looks like: catching spirals early and returning to your secure identity with ease.Why healing is a lifelong commitment (and what it means to maintain your secure foundation).If you've been on the fence about doing this work, now is the time.

Three survivors share their breast cancer journey.  They talk about how mindset, medicine, and community changed their breast cancer outcomes. We explore early detection, individualized treatment, cultural barriers in care, and practical tips from nutrition to radiation skin protection. A life-changing diagnosis doesn't arrive with a manual, so we brought together three women who wrote their own. Cynthia Rogers, Meri Ramey Gray, and Dr. Ebony Prophet Bullock open up about the messy middle—dense breast screenings, biopsies, chemo side effects, radiation skin care—and the unexpected moments of clarity that guided their choices. Their stories are different, but the throughline is unmistakable: early detection, fierce self-advocacy, and a mindset that holds faith and science in the same hand.We dig into what most blogs skip. Cynthia explains how a support group named her “mystery” numbness as neuropathy and pushed her care team to adjust chemo. Mary walks us through trusting intuition, why some antioxidants can blunt chemotherapy, and how an unconventional spray tan barrier helped her avoid radiation burns. Ebony threads a powerful spiritual arc through a year of profound loss, then shows how understanding her tumor's grade and stage shaped the order of surgery, chemo, and radiation. She also speaks directly to Black women about cultural pressure, medical bias, and the healing power of therapy alongside prayer.You'll leave with a smarter playbook: read your screening letters, know the difference between stage and grade, ask about genetic testing and clinical trials, and bring a notebook to every appointment. Pair nutrition with your regimen instead of against it, question one-size-fits-all protocols, and build a circle that includes oncologists, nurses, therapists, and the people who lift your spirit. Most of all, trust the quiet inner signal—intuition is data, and it belongs at the table with evidence.If this conversation helps you or someone you love, tap follow, share it with a friend who needs it, and leave a review so more people can find these life-saving stories.Websites Ebony Prophet-Bullock, EdD.https://stan.store/THTFaithBreast Cancer and Your Faith: A Journey to Joy- https://a.co/d/eVUfZy6Anxiety Unlock: Your Personal Journey to Peace- https://a.co/d/0BXuNFAPrayer Unlock: Your Personal Journey to Peace- https://a.oco/d/gDAsC7TMeri Rameywww.masssoulinfusion.comCynthia Rogers Boob Talk PodcastWe hope you have enjoyed this episode.

Pagod na pagod ka na ba at gusto mo nang sumuko? Sabi ng Diyos, kung tayo'y napapagal, hanapin natin ang kapahingahan sa Kaniya.

When you finally decide enough is enough, that you're ready to heal and stop repeating painful patterns. Something powerful begins to shift inside you. In this episode, I'm sharing the truth about what really happens when you make that decision. From the internal relief and hope that come almost instantly, to the challenges and “tests” the universe sends your way, to how your relationships start to evolve, this episode pulls back the curtain on what it actually looks like to choose healing. Whether you're at rock bottom or just realizing you're ready for more, this is your reminder that deciding to heal is one of the most courageous and life-changing choices you can make.Inside the episode:The emotional and energetic shifts that happen the moment you commit to healingWhy “extinction bursts” can make you question your progress and how to see them as signs of growthHow your friend group and relationships may change (and why that's a good thing)It's your time to heal, to step into your highest and best self, and to finally experience the love and peace you deserve.

I sat down with R. Blank, CEO of Shield Your Body and author of Empowered, to cut through the EMF noise with clear science and practical steps. If you've ever wondered what EMF actually is, what's hype vs. real risk, and how to reduce exposure without abandoning modern tech, this conversation is for you.R. breaks down ionizing vs. non-ionizing radiation, why your cell phone is the #1 avoidable source, and the “distance × time” rule that drives smarter habits. We get tactical: building a low-EMF bedroom (no phones, battery-powered alarm clocks, low-blue rechargeable lamps), why a meter beats guesswork, when to de-energize a circuit at night, safer audio (air-tubes over AirPods), and how to configure your phone radios (airplane mode, Wi-Fi/Bluetooth off when you don't need them). We also compare shielding products vs. Faraday gear, when apparel makes sense (travel and high-density environments), and how to think about privacy tools like Faraday wallets and laptop sleeves.If you want data-backed, low-friction ways to protect sleep, focus, and long-term health without quitting your devices, you'll love this one. You'll walk away with a simple rule (“stop carrying your phone in your pocket”), a bedroom checklist, and a clearer map for what to change today and what, if anything, to buy later.Timeline Mitopure Gummies: GET 20% Off Now!

Some stories are spoken. Others are lived so powerfully they outshine words. Karen Wilson joins us to share how a 17-year caregiving journey with her mother—through cancer, stroke, COPD, and chronic pain—became a living curriculum for resilience, presence, and protective love. When a stroke silenced her mother's speech, gestures and energy did the talking, teaching Karen to pour hope, choose her words with care, and treat gratitude as a daily state, not a polite reaction.We go deep on the mindset that sustains caregivers and anyone navigating long seasons of stress: how to make a life while making a living, why productivity can't replace purpose, and the role of consistent, simple wellness habits that actually stick. Karen opens her toolkit for advocacy inside hospitals and rehabs—health care proxies, durable power of attorney, reading treatment plans, and partnering with social workers—so you can push for better outcomes without burning bridges. If you've ever felt dismissed by “baseline” talk or boxed in by algorithms, this conversation offers language and strategy to stay strong and collaborative.Journaling threads it all together. Karen shares how themed journaling—anchored by words like Enough or Not Yet—helped her step back from crisis, process emotion, and return to presence. It's a practical, accessible way to manage caregiver burnout, reduce anxiety, and reclaim clarity. Along the way we reflect on loss, legacy, and the seeds mothers plant that keep blooming long after they're gone. Expect tangible tools, honest encouragement, and a gentle push to redefine success around love, laughter, and learning.If you're a caregiver, midlife listener, or anyone rebuilding after hardship, this one is for you.

Today's episode is Part 1 of my new three-part series The Truth About Healing, and we're diving into what healing really looks like before your “I'm done, I'm ready to change” moment. I'm talking about that in-between space where you're numbing, distracting, or consuming all the self-help content but not actually embodying the change. I've been there, and I know how easy it is to get stuck in learning instead of transforming. This episode will help you understand what's really happening when you're avoiding the work and how to finally move forward.Inside the episode:The hidden comfort of staying stuck (and why your brain clings to the familiar even when it hurts)Why gathering more information doesn't equal transformationHow to move from intellectualizing your healing to embodying secure, lasting changeYou are so worthy of doing the real work, not just learning about it.If you're ready to stop waiting for the “right time” and actually experience what healing feels like from the inside out, I'd love to help you do that.

Amy is solo for today's episode sharing what she wishes she would have known about labor and delivery. Amy has always been interested in birth and while her nursing career ended up taking a different route, her passion for birth did not end there. After having her 3 boys, Amy decided to further her knowledge and train as a doula. Every part of Amy's professional and personal life has led to her sharing all things pregnancy, labor, delivery, and postpartum with the Expecting and Empowered audience!Amy thought she felt prepared going into her first delivery. However, looking back, she would have edited her preparation strategies a bit by studying up on the “normals” of L&D, especially the areas she feared. If you are in the same boat of having labor fears, please see the resources linked in the show notes below! Thinking back on her second birth, what Amy wishes she knew is that even if plans have to change, you will get through it! With the help of your care team, unexpected challenges or changes may happen but it doesn't mean you won't experience an amazing birth. Finally, reflecting on her third birth, a few things came to Amy's mind. Firstly, remember that each birth is unique! Every baby is different, every labor is different. And secondly, prepare yourself and your birth partner to feel confident in advocating for yourself and your baby. Things come up and knowing you feel confident asking questions or speaking up is key. If you enjoyed listening to this episode, we would love it if you could share it to your Instagram stories and tag us @expectingandempowered.
