If I can do it, you know, if I can give somebody a bit of information that can help them out, then I want to be able to share that information with them.Pallet Pros is more of your brick and mortar distribution side. So we physically have a physical building. We have pallets there and we have workers.So at my level, I'm not really seeing an impact with tariffs. I have strategically placed my business where I work with small and medium sized businesses that for the most part ship within the country so they're not having to ship stuff overseas.My network is built around redundancy. So where if I'm not physically available, I have other people that can do the work for meWhen I come home, my brain switches from entrepreneur to now husband and father.It's beautiful chaos, running two businesses while raising a five-month-old.Legacy, for me, is building something that still operates after I'm gone. - BrandonConsistency is the number one thing if you want to succeed in the pallet business.

In the sport of lacrosse, Julie Myers is a legend. As a player, she achieved a National Championship. As a coach, she is responsible for 2 total National Championships, 6 Final Four appearances, 5 Title Game appearances, 5 ACC Championships and 27 consecutive NCAA tournament appearances. She was also National Coach of the Year in 2004, ACC Coach of the Year in 2004 and 2006 . She was inducted in the US Lacrosse Hall of fame and the IWLCA Hall of Fame. In 2022, She earned the Diane Geppi Aikens Lifetime Achievement Award. But athletics is only part of her story. Julie's success in sports and life is a result of grit, resilience and putting family first. Growing up, she loved competing with her siblings while appreciating how lucky she was to be able to play. As a coach, she emphasized the value of relationships and feeling connected. As a mother, she made hard decisions that kept her on the right path. In one of the biggest tragedies to affect the lacrosse communities, the death of Yeardley Love to abuse by an ex-boyfriend, Julie Myers realized that who she was and what she accomplished was just a drop in the bucket of life but also learned that every drop is incredibly important. With the beginning on The One Love Foundation, she was determined to make her ripple bigger by creating social change, raising awareness about relationship abuse and educating about relationship health. Now as CEO, she is responsible for ultimately teaching us all to “Love Better.” Julie Myers' message and legacy show us that, “It is amazing what people can do, especially when they have to.” @join1love

I think we should see a doctor," Mei said gently, her brows slightly furrowed.Zh: 昌，是梅的哥哥，却摇头说：“梅，不用那么紧张。奶奶这只是季节性过敏。夏天是这样，每年都差不多。”En: Chang, Mei's brother, shook his head and said, "Mei, don't be so anxious. Grandma's just experiencing seasonal allergies. That's how summer is; it's almost the same every year."Zh: 听到昌这么说，梅心中闪过一丝怀疑。En: Hearing what Chang said, a trace of doubt flashed through Mei's mind.Zh: 也许真的是她多虑了？En: Could she truly be overthinking it?Zh: 可是，这种感觉是那么揪心。En: Yet the feeling was so troubling.Zh: 她知道，她必须下个决定，这是她做为家人守护者应负的责任。En: She knew she had to make a decision, as it was her responsibility as the family's protector.Zh: 夜晚降临，月光如水，照亮了厨房的地板。En: As night descended, the moonlight, like water, illuminated the kitchen floor.Zh: 梅静静地坐在那里，心中犹豫不决。En: Mei sat there quietly, torn with indecision.Zh: 可当她再次听见李轻轻的咳嗽声，犹如回荡在她内心深处的一声钟响，她坚定地决定要做正确的事情。En: But when she once again heard Li's gentle cough, echoing like a bell ringing deep within her soul, she resolved to do the right thing.Zh: 第二天早晨，梅鼓起勇气，对昌说：“我还是觉得奶奶需要见医生。请相信我。”En: The next morning, Mei mustered the courage and said to Chang, "I still feel that Grandma needs to see a doctor. Please trust me."Zh: 昌疑惑地看着梅，但他没有再争论。En: Chang looked at Mei with doubt, but he didn't argue further.Zh: 毕竟，他知道妹妹的心意，像这柔和夏日的阳光一样坚定和温暖。En: After all, he knew his sister's intentions were as steadfast and warm as the gentle summer sunlight.Zh: 医生的诊断很快就有了结果，En: The doctor's diagnosis was soon in.Zh: 李的咳嗽并不严重，只是小问题，如果不处理可能会变坏。En: Li's cough was not serious, just a minor issue that could worsen if left unaddressed.Zh: 梅松了一口气，她知道，她的坚持是对的。En: Mei sighed with relief, knowing she had been right to persist.Zh: 她感到一种久违的平静。En: She felt a long-lost sense of peace.Zh: 家人们围坐在餐桌旁，窗外树影摇曳，夏日的微风轻轻捎来温馨的气息。En: The family gathered around the dining table, with the shadows of trees swaying outside, as the summer breeze gently brought in a warm, cozy feeling.Zh: 梅抬眼，看见奶奶慈祥的笑容，En: Mei looked up and saw Li's kind smile.Zh: 她心中自豪，自己终于相信了自己的直觉，为奶奶的健康做出了正确的决定。En: She felt proud for trusting her instincts and making the right decision for her grandmother's health.Zh: 故事在这片温暖中结束。En: The story concludes in this warmth.Zh: 梅学会了如何信任自己的判断，无论他人反对与否。En: Mei learned how to trust her own judgment, regardless of opposition.Zh: 这是一个对她而言，更加坚定成熟的开始。En: This marked the beginning of a more determined and mature phase for her.

What if technology didn't keep kids inside—but actually helped launch them out the front door? In this powerful third conversation with COSMO Technologies CEO Russell York, we explore how family-first tech can help revive real-world childhoods, spark neighborhood friendships, and reconnect parents to peace of mind. With their newest release, the Junior Track 5, COSMO has reimagined GPS-enabled kids' watches to prioritize freedom, safety, and community. Russell shares why helicopter parenting is giving way to “satellite parenting”—a thoughtful model that allows kids to roam while still staying connected. We talk about why Big Tech has failed families, how back-to-school season is the new New Year, and what it takes to make screen-free summers actually work. Whether you're homeschooling, working full-time, or somewhere in between, this episode offers both a mindset shift and a practical tool for reclaiming childhood in the digital age.

Leo was the tip of the spear on the battlefield—dodging bullets while patching up his brothers in arms as a combat medic. After being injured, he didn't slow down—he shifted gears. Now he's leading the charge for his family and pushing out raw, real positivity on social media. In this episode, we talk about pain, purpose, and what it means to still be a warrior when the uniform comes off. This one's not about survival—it's about showing up every damn day and choosing to fight forward. Food has always been more than just fuel—it's a symbol of survival, success, and connection. You don't sit down to eat when you're running from danger. You don't feast in the middle of a war. You break bread when you've made it through the fire, when you've hunted, gathered, built, or earned your way to that table. Throughout history, when people came together over a meal, it meant they'd survived another day, and that was worth celebrating. Food is the universal truce. Cultures, families, warriors, and even enemies have gathered around it to talk, share, and reconnect. And let's be real—if I came over to your house, where are we hanging out? The kitchen. Always the kitchen. Everyone's crammed in there, shoulder to shoulder, telling stories, stealing bites, and laughing loud while the rest of the house sits empty. It's not about the space—it's about the warmth, the smells, the energy. Some of the strongest memories we carry are tied to meals: Sunday dinners, barbecues, holidays, birthdays, post-fight feasts, or that one dish grandma made better than anyone else. And in today's chaos, we forget how powerful that is. We scroll through fake perfection, skip meals, eat alone, and call it normal. But when you slow down and sit with your people over food, something shifts. There's laughter, stories, maybe even healing. The bullshit falls away and what's real remains—connection, community, and shared victories. Food doesn't just nourish the body. It anchors us. It reminds us we're not alone.
