Podcasts about family roots

Join thousands of other listeners on our Substack, The Foodletter!   In this inspiring and insight-packed episode, Brooke sits down with Utah-based entrepreneur and restaurateur Shem Hannemann to talk about the highs, lows, and hard truths of building restaurant brands that people love. Shem opens up about his early creative ventures, what it really takes to start a restaurant from scratch, and how his passion for design, people, and food have fueled a career rooted in both hospitality and hustle. From the initial concept of Sunday's Best to facing hard moments of burnout, Shem delivers a transparent and motivating look at what it takes to succeed in the food world—and how staying curious and community-focused keeps him moving forward.   Whether you're a restaurant lover, aspiring business owner, or creative looking for inspiration, this episode delivers clarity, honesty, and encouragement in spades.   Key Takeaways [03:28] Family Roots and Resilience: Shem's grandparents immigrated from Samoa to Hawaii, seeking better opportunities. Their hard work and sacrifice laid the foundation for the family's success. [08:17] The Power of Family and Culture: Surfing and the ocean played a central role in keeping the brothers connected and grounded, influencing the restaurant's beach-themed branding. [16:17] From Humble Beginnings to Expansion: The first Seven Brothers location, Kahuku Grill, opened in 2009 with minimal experience and a $2.75 burger that initially lost money. Through word of mouth and community support, the business grew. [19:56] Menu Evolution: The iconic "Shemburger" was born out of experimentation, and the menu expanded from seafood to gourmet burgers, now a cornerstone of the brand. [29:10] Expansion and Franchising: Seven Brothers now has multiple locations (4 in Hawaii, 7 in Utah, and 1 in Arizona), with 4 more opening soon. Franchising has allowed local families to bring the brand to their communities. [41:05] Lessons in Resilience: Shem credits his parents' optimism and hard work as the driving force behind the business's success, emphasizing the mantra "this too shall pass."   Notable Quotes (3:28) "Our grandparents immigrated from Samoa to Hawaii. They wanted a better life for their kids... my dad comes from a family of 14." (15:40) “Don't do it—it's the highest fail rate... we don't have experience.” (42:20) “This too shall pass… good times or bad—just weather it. Something good will come.” – Shem Hannemann (46:39) “It's a mess, but it's my favorite burger right now.”   Resources Visit the official Seven Brothers website.

 If you're anything like me, you've likely longed for a time when you could leave everything behind and hit the road, actually live the van life. I've got you covered. This episode is for you. Today, I'm speaking with Brent and Alan Klein from VanDoit, who take travelers to better places through trustworthy, modular van designs tailored to each story. Facebook   Twitter   Instagram Love the show? Subscribe,  rate, review, and share! Sign up for my Newsletter  HERE I'd love to hear your feedback about the show! You can contact me here:  rick@theoutdoorbizpodcast.com   What Happened: I used to think van life meant dropping everything, quitting your job, and driving off into the sunset with a dog and a dream. You know, the stuff Instagram makes look effortless. But then I met people who lived something different—more real. Like hauling their kids to soccer in the same van they use for weekend mountain biking trips. Or using it as a mobile showroom by day, then a cozy crash pad by night. It hit me: this isn't about escaping life—it's about expanding it. Making your van fit your life, not the other way around. That's when I realized... van life doesn't have to be all or nothing. It can be everything. Principle: The best adventure vehicles don't just take you places—they evolve with your life. From hauling mulch to hauling mountain bikes to hauling kids, they meet you wherever you are. Van life isn't about living out of your van. It's about living more fully because of it. Transition: But here's the thing… Most people think van life means going all-in, Instagram-ready sunsets and full-time nomadism. And that belief? It's holding them back. They either think it's “not for them” or they try to DIY their way into it and end up elbow-deep in wiring they should've never touched. That's why: That's why we dropped this episode of the Outdoor Adventure Lifestyle Podcast—to show you a more authentic path. One that's rooted in decades of experience, real-life usage, and a design philosophy that's more about living than it is about lifestyle labels. Call to Action: Still dreaming of freedom but stuck thinking you're “not the van type”? Listen to this episode. Discover how modular design is changing what van life really means—no sanding, wiring, or duct-taped dreams required. #van life, #modular vans, #outdoor adventure, #camper van, #road trip, #RV conversion, #family travel, #adventure travel, #mobile medical vans, #commercial vans, #remote work, #van customization, #outdoor gear, #motorsports, #mountain biking, #camping, #van storage solutions, #modular design, #custom interiors, #everyday van use, #wellness vans, #crisis units, #versatility, #adventure gear, #van community, #DIY van conversion, #van durability, #overlanding

Look here!" Eunji gestured excitedly.Ko: 진수는 동생의 열정을 이해하려 했지만, 그저 미소만 지을 수 있었다.En: Jinsu tried to understand his sister's enthusiasm but could only smile.Ko: 그는 이 여행에 대해 처음에는 그다지 흥미가 없었다.En: Initially, he wasn't very interested in the trip.Ko: 그러나 어머니의 기억을 기리기 위한 여정이라는 것을 알고 있었기 때문에, 가보지 않으면 안 될 것 같았다.En: However, since it was a journey to honor their mother's memories, he felt he had to go.Ko: 그들은 어머니가 어린 시절 뛰어놀았던 바닷가로 갔다.En: They went to the seaside where their mother played as a child.Ko: 파도는 조용히 해변을 쓰다듬고 있었고, 은빛 억새는 바람에 살랑거렸다.En: The waves gently caressed the beach, and the silver grass swayed in the wind.Ko: 진수는 그의 마음이 점차 무거워짐을 느꼈다.En: Jinsu felt a heaviness gradually filling his heart.Ko: 이 장소가 어머니에게 소중했음을 느낄 수 있었다. 하지만 그 중요성을 완전히 이해할 수 있을지 확신이 서지 않았다.En: He could sense that this place was precious to his mother, though he wasn't sure if he could fully comprehend its significance.Ko: 은지는 모래사장에서 무언가를 발견하고 진수를 불렀다.En: Eunji discovered something in the sand and called Jinsu.Ko: "오빠, 이거 봐. 엄마가 우리에게 남긴 거 같아."En: "Oppa, look at this. I think Mom left this for us."Ko: 작은 조약돌에 어머니의 필체로 세심하게 새긴 이름이 있었다.En: There was a name meticulously carved in their mother's handwriting on a small pebble.Ko: 진수는 그 조약돌을 손에 들으며 입술을 깨물었다.En: Holding the pebble, Jinsu bit his lip.Ko: 갑자기 그의 가슴속에서 무언가가 일렁이며 깨닫게 했다.En: Suddenly, something stirred within him, leading to a realization.Ko: 그들은 잠시 침묵을 지키며 함께 앉아 있었다.En: They sat together in silence for a moment.Ko: 진수는 은지에게 말했다, "은지야, 우리 엄마 이야기를 더 알아보자.En: Jinsu told Eunji, "Let's learn more about Mom's story.Ko: 기록하고 남기자."En: Let's record and preserve it."Ko: 은지는 고개를 끄덕이며 미소 지었다.En: Eunji nodded with a smile.Ko: "응, 오빠. 우리가 해야 해."En: "Yes, Oppa. We should."Ko: 제주의 하늘은 점차 붉게 타오르며 저녁이 되었고, 진수는 어머니의 영혼이 이곳에 여전히 깃들어 있는 것을 느꼈다.En: As the sky over Jeju gradually burned red with the evening, Jinsu felt his mother's spirit still lingering there.Ko: 그는 이 땅에 뿌리를 내리고 있는 자부심과 연결됨을 느끼며, 그동안 잊고 지냈던 가족의 역사를 더 알고 싶다는 강한 열망이 생겼다.En: He felt connected and proud of being rooted in this land, with a strong desire to learn more about the family history he had neglected.Ko: 그의 마음 한구석에 남아있던 회의감은 은지와 함께 나눈 이 순간으로 변화를 맞이했다.En: The doubts lingering in a corner of his heart began to change through this moment shared with Eunji.Ko: 진수는 적어도 그날, 가족의 전통과 유산을 이해하기 시작했다. 그리고 그들의 어머니와 더 가까워졌음을 느꼈다.En: That day, Jinsu started to understand his family's traditions and heritage and felt closer to their mother.Ko: 은빛 억새가 흔들리는 제주의 늦가을이 이렇게 진수에게 새로운 시작을 선물했다.En: The swaying silver grass of late autumn in Jeju gifted Jinsu with a new beginning.

I'm Josh Cooperman and this is Convo By Design with a fresh take on design from the ATL, Atlanta, Georgia. This is a city making a huge impact on design due in large part to designers like Gabriella Eisenhart, founder of Silo Studios. Designer Resources Pacific Sales Kitchen and Home. Where excellence meets expertise. Monogram - It's the details that define Monogram ThermaSol - Redefining the modern shower experience. Without steam, it's just a bathroom. Design Hardware - A stunning and vast collection of jewelry for the home!  - Where service meets excellence TimberTech - Real wood beauty without the upkeep Gabriela shared her background in video production and its influence on her approach to her current work. Gabriela confirmed that her strong visual narrative in her work stems from her intuitive understanding of how a space should make people feel and her background in production. We also discussed the intricacies of the design process, emphasizing the importance of problem-solving and flexibility. Gabriela highlighted the delicate balance between respecting the architecture of a space and the lifestyle of their clients, while also creating functional and durable designs. Gabriella shared the importance of visual storytelling in her work and the need to maintain a balance between imagination and attention to detail in their presentations and designs.  Visual storytelling and the narrative surrounding the lives and interests of the clients themselves is what remains one of the greatest opportunities in the design industry. The storytelling within the work itself is what makes design so impactful on those who reside in the spaces. For years, i have been speaking with set decorators on some of the most impactful TV and film production and a constant through-line within those conversations is the importance of storytelling derived from the words on a script and a set decorators ability to transfer the essence of a character into the design of the set to adequately reflect who that character is and why they are that way. This is very much the same in interior design except instead of taking words from a page, insightful designers listen to the clients with whom they're speaking to get to the true essences of who they are and to craft  a design concept around that client and their friends, family, work, hobbies fur-babies.  Some of the best and most insightful creatives with whom I have spoken all share this ability to ask insightful questions, really listen to the responses and then read between the lines to capture the characters of their clients. Then to intuitively, instinctively craft spaces that further the narrative to the point where, and I have experienced this firsthand, a client will walk into a completed space and feel as though they have either been there before or, more commonly, feel a sense of comfort as if the space was created specifically for them. Because it was. This is connectivity at a deeper level.  These are topics with a huge impact on design today. I think in large part because we are talking about the impactful design emanating from a city like Atlanta and not just projects in the usual locales like New York, LA and Miami. Atlanta is a hotbed for groundbreaking design, because of designers like Gabriela and firms like Silo Studios. And you are going to hear from Gabriela, right after this. Thank you Gabriela. Thank you for taking the time to share your story. I enjoyed our conversation and cannot wait to see what you do next. Thank you to my partner sponsors, ThermaSol, Pacific Sales, TimberTech, Monogram and Design Hardware. These partners are amazing companies all who have made a concerted effort to support the design community through education, incentives, events, media and exposure, not to mention a collection of extraordinary products and service to match. Check the show notes for links to each of them so you can see first hand how they can make your design...

Through these experiences, he developed a profound understanding of leadership, emphasizing the crucial elements of leadership development, spirituality, and servanthood. 5. **Advocacy for Servant Leadership:**   With a fervent belief in servant leadership, Reginald advocates for clarity in goals and visions, coupled with a hands-on approach to helping others succeed.

It can be wicked easy to get attached to the idea that relationships are supposed to last forever – and that people and how we relate to one another are supposed to stay the same. This notion gets reinforced in our minds, because our brains really like familiarity and don't particularly love change. When it comes to human beings and relationships - things remaining the same - is not a reasonable expectation because like trees, we're all destined to grow.Today on The Karen Kenney Show, we're talking about how people are kind of like trees and the different relationships they find themselves in. Some relationships weather the toughest storms, bending but not breaking. Others provide support, shade or nourishment for a time before falling away. But all are built on the foundation, the roots, that started with what we learned in our earliest home life with our family.If you were to look at the people in your own life - what kind of “trees” would you discover? Do you have strong, stable Redwoods? Or are they a low bush that's never going to grow and it may be time to uproot and move on from them? As with trees, sometimes relationships wither away, but it doesn't mean they didn't serve a purpose when they came into our life. Like trees, relationships grow and change with each passing season with some remaining long term like evergreens and others moving on to grow alongside someone else. So, take a look around and ask yourself, “Who am I standing in the forest of this life with and are there any that I may have outgrown that it is time to say goodbye to? Plus, what kind of tree am I being to others?”KK's Takeaways:• Trees, Relationships + Personal Growth (01:36)• Family Roots (7:17)• Toxic Family Dynamics + Self-Care (13:25)• Tree Trunks, Growth + Relationships (15:51)• Self-Awareness (21:34)• The Cycles Of Relationships (27:43)• Building Sturdy Relationships (32:49)• Spiritual Growth + Internal Resources (36:09)• Personal Growth + Relationships (42:13)• Spark Of Life (47:38)Karen Kenney is a certified Spiritual Mentor, Hypnotist, Integrative Change Worker and a Life Coach.

“It was fantastic to open my eyes to the differences in hospitality, the differences of properties - meeting other cultures, foods, everything. But having been there and having worked abroad, I think the main pillars remained with me from Irish hospitality - good food, good welcome and doing everything you can for your guests.” We're in lucky company with Peter Barrett, 4th Generation Owner and General Manager of Dunmore House, an award-winning, 4-star hotel on the Clonakilty Bay shores of West Cork, Ireland. Many changes have unfolded over the years since his great-grandparents came across this coastal farm in 1934, however, the one thing that has not changed is “family welcoming family”. Having recently returned home from global studies and luxury hospitality experiences, Peter shares his excitement in continuing his family legacy, reciting the Irish Proverb “Níl aon tinteán mar do thinteán féin,” as for him and the ways in which he treats his guests, “there's no place like home.” Today, as many like me celebrate their Irish Heritage, and many more celebrate an excuse to drink a smooth pint of Guinness, Peter and I banter about what makes Irish hospitality recognizable around the world, how the vista views from Dunmore House are unmatched, and why travelers should not pass up new Irish cuisine. Sláinte! Top Takeaways [1:40] A story that spans across numerous generations started as a working farm shortly after the Irish War of Independence, slowly turning into a community gathering spot for wedding breakfasts, growing into a proper hotel in the 1960s, of which the Dunmore House stands true to today.  [10:00] Peter shares the fortune he sees in his hospitality upbringing and how his time away from home - studying in Switzerland and working in Hong Kong, Thailand and the United States -  gave him a fresh perspective and newfound appreciation for Irish hospitality.  [15:00] Expect to stay in a setting that is a “home away from home” - with familiar characters that will treat you as family, warmth felt from the welcome to the wood fireplace, food that will fill your stomach and your soul.  [17:30] Everything from the amenities in the rooms to the produce picked from the gardens is proudly Irish. Peter explains how there is a sense of sustainability and stewardship that comes with owning a property and being a part of a community for many generations.   [21:50] Dine In Good Company at Dunmore House, experiencing “a sense of place by the sea using the finest resources from West and County Cork” at the Michelin Guide recommended Adrift Restaurant, and other casual and alfresco dining destinations.  [25:25] There's adventure abound around Clonakilty Bay, whether you choose to walk the beaches, go for a sea swim or kayak, seek out humpback whales off the coastline or meander through town stopping in magical and musical pubs.

In this episode of AutoInsiders, we explore the inspiring narrative of Demere NeSmith, a man whose career in the auto industry is as much about fostering enduring relationships as it is about impressive sales figures. Born into the legacy of NeSmith Chevrolet Buick GMC, Demere's upbringing in the business instilled in him a profound understanding of the value of integrity and customer trust. Demere's journey is marked by a steadfast commitment to fairness and transparency, principles that propelled the dealership's parts department to unparalleled success. Under his guidance, the dealership not only became the Number 1 GM Performance and Powertrain Dealer for 16 consecutive years but also a beacon of customer service, often putting long-term relationships above immediate profits. His passion for honest dealings extended to standing firm against industry pressures, sometimes challenging the very OEMs he represented to maintain his values. This dedication to doing right by the customer cemented the dealership's reputation in Claxton, Georgia, and beyond, turning a local business into a national success story. After the sale of the dealership in 2019, Demere's legacy continues to resonate. His approach to business — prioritizing genuine connections over quick wins — has left an indelible mark on the industry. Now, as he shares his experiences, we get a glimpse into the life of a man who has navigated the fast lanes of automotive sales with the compass of his convictions, balancing a thriving career with a fulfilling family life as a husband to CarEdge's own Ashley and a father of 2. Tune in to hear Demere NeSmith recount the drive of his life, where every turn was taken with the utmost integrity, steering towards a future where relationships are the true measure of success.
