Send us a textHave you ever wondered how some family businesses not only survive but thrive across generations? In this captivating conversation, Tucker Yarbrough reveals the remarkable journey of Yarbrough & Sons, a home service company that's grown from a $4.5 million business to pacing at $13 million by staying true to their roots while embracing innovation.Tucker opens up about being a "trade baby" – growing up in the business his parents founded in 1988, stepping away as his parents encouraged, and then finding his way back alongside his brothers. What makes this story particularly compelling is how three brothers with different strengths have created clearly defined roles that leverage their individual talents. Will's systems-orientation, Colby's sales expertise, and Tucker's financial and marketing acumen combine to create a leadership team that's greater than the sum of its parts.The conversation takes a fascinating turn when Tucker challenges conventional wisdom about branding in the home service industry. Rather than chasing trendy designs or constantly rebranding, Yarbrough & Sons embraced their traditional red and blue "sun and snowflake" logo as part of their legacy identity. This consistency has paid dividends, with their brand becoming so established that competitors now appear derivative of them, not the other way around.Perhaps most revolutionary is their approach to marketing and pricing transparency. Tucker shares why they've moved away from pay-per-click advertising after discovering their branded leads convert at 3.5 to 4 times higher value. He also details their groundbreaking GetQuote tool, which provides instant online estimates to potential customers – a direct challenge to the industry's standard "call for pricing" model that frustrates so many consumers.Whether you're running a family business, working in the trades, or simply interested in authentic branding strategies, this episode offers invaluable insights on creating lasting success through transparency, consistent values, and strong leadership.

When you're deep in the world of disability parenting, it's easy to feel like every day is the same. The meds. The appointments. The routine that doesn't seem to change much, even as the years go by.In this episode, Marci returns to share what life looks like now, two and a half years after her conversation about grieving her daughter Freya's intellectual disability. Sheopens up about the slow pace of progress, the grief that still sneaks up on her, and how, while parts of Freya's disabilities are difficult, her family cherishes and celebrates Freya's joy in the day to day.We also talk about the messy emotions of school decisions, the heartbreak of communication barriers, and why disability has pulled Marci into the world of politics—whether she likes it or not.If you've ever felt caught between acceptance and grief, you'll feel right at home in this one.Links:Listen to Ep 114: Grieving Our Children's IntellectualDisabilities + Facing Our Internalized Ableism with Marci Dunning.Follow Marci on Instagram @ freyasluckyarm!Follow us on Instagram @the_rare_life!Join The Rare Life newsletter and never miss an update!Fill out our contact form to joinupcoming discussion groups!Donate to the podcast or Contact me about sponsoring an episode.Follow the Facebook page.

26-year-old Emory Futo Jr., his father's namesake, had a childhood that was anything but normal, but he was now a grown man determined to change for the better. To those on the outside, the Futos were settling into a picture-perfect life—a new stucco home on a quiet cul-de-sac in sunny California, a far cry from his upbringing in St. Louis, Missouri. Neighbors later told police the couple was quiet, well-liked, and unremarkable. And in 1990, Joshua arrived—their firstborn.  From the outside, it was the picture of the American dream but every family has secrets. And the Futo family had many.

Transcript:Hi: गोवा के सुनहरी समुद्र तट पर, धूप अपनी पूरी शिद्दत से चमक रही थी।En: On the golden beaches of Goa, the sun was shining with all its intensity.Hi: नारियल के पेड़ अपनी शाखाओं को हवा में लहराते हुए सुरमई आकाश से बातें कर रहे थे।En: The coconut trees, waving their branches in the breeze, seemed to be conversing with the azure sky.Hi: समुद्र की लहरें किनारे को चूमते हुए मधुर संगीत बजा रही थीं।En: The waves of the ocean played a sweet melody as they kissed the shore.Hi: इसी बीच, एक परिवार अपने रिश्तों को नया आकार देने की कोशिश में जुटा था।En: Meanwhile, a family was engaged in an attempt to reshape their relationships.Hi: अनया, एक सजीधजी युवती, धीमे कदमों से तट की ओर बढ़ रही थी।En: Anaya, a well-dressed young woman, was walking slowly toward the shore.Hi: उसके मन में हलचल थी।En: Her mind was in turmoil.Hi: सिंगापुर में अपने करियर को नया मुकाम देने के लिए उसने सबकुछ पीछे छोड़ दिया था।En: She had left everything behind to advance her career in Singapore.Hi: पर इस फैसले ने उसके और उसके परिवार के बीच अनकहा फासला पैदा कर दिया। खासकर उसके भाई कबीर के साथ।En: But this decision had created an unspoken distance between her and her family, especially with her brother Kabir.Hi: कबीर, भारत में रहकर अपनी पेंटिंग में खो जाने वाला कलाकार, जिसकी हर कला में आजादी की झलक थी।En: Kabir, an artist lost in his painting in India, whose every artwork reflected freedom.Hi: दोनों के बीच खटास थी, लेकिन गोवा का यह मिलन शायद उन्हें नई राह पर ले आए।En: There was tension between them, but this meeting in Goa might guide them onto a new path.Hi: मीरा, जो दोनों की कज़िन थी, हमेशा मुस्कुराती और परिवार में मिठास घोलने का प्रयास करती।En: Mira, who was their cousin, always smiled and tried to infuse sweetness into the family.Hi: उसकी कोशिश थी कि इस मुलाकात में अनया और कबीर अपने मतभेद भुला दें।En: Her effort was to make Anaya and Kabir forget their differences at this meeting.Hi: मीरा की पहल पर सबने गोवा के इस तट पर पिकनिक का निर्णय लिया था।En: At Mira's suggestion, everyone had decided on a picnic at this beach in Goa.Hi: गर्मियों का समय था, और समुद्र की ठंडी हवा सभी को राहत दे रही थी।En: It was summertime, and the cool breeze from the sea was providing everyone with relief.Hi: अनया ने निर्णय लिया कि वह कबीर से बातचीत करेगी और उसकी दृष्टिकोण समझने की कोशिश करेगी।En: Anaya decided she would talk to Kabir and try to understand his perspective.Hi: पर कबीर का मन आजकल अनकहे शब्दों में ही लिपटा था।En: But lately, Kabir was wrapped in unspoken words.Hi: तभी अचानक बादलों की गड़गड़ाहट ने सभी को चौंका दिया।En: Suddenly, the rumbling of clouds surprised everyone.Hi: एक तेज़ आंधी आने का संकेत था।En: It was a sign of a strong storm.Hi: सब जल्दी से पास की एक छोटी सी झोपड़ी में छिप गए।En: They quickly took shelter in a small nearby hut.Hi: अचानक मिली इस निजी जगह में, अनया और कबीर को अपने द्वंद को सामने लाना पड़ा।En: In this sudden private space, Anaya and Kabir had to confront their conflict.Hi: मीरा ने पहल की, "देखो, तुम दोनों के बिना ये परिवार अधूरा है।En: Mira initiated, "Look, without the two of you, this family is incomplete.Hi: हर किसी को अपनी जगह चाहिए। चाहें वो गोवा हो या सिंगापुर।"En: Everyone needs their own space, whether it's Goa or Singapore."Hi: अनया ने कबीर की आँखों में झांकते हुए कहा, "भाई, मुझे अपनी पहचान बनाना जरूरी लगा, लेकिन मैं तुम सबसे दूर नहीं जाना चाहती थी।"En: Anaya, looking into Kabir's eyes, said, "Brother, I felt the need to make my own identity, but I never wanted to go far from you all."Hi: कबीर ने कुछ क्षण सोच कर कहा, "मुझे तुम्हारी उपलब्धियाँ देखकर गर्व होता है।En: Kabir, after thinking for a moment, said, "I feel proud seeing your achievements.Hi: लेकिन तुम्हारे बिना भी लगता है कि कुछ चूका है।"En: But without you, it also feels like something is missing."Hi: तूफान की गड़गड़ाहट के बीच यह बातचीत चेहरों पर मुस्कान ले आई।En: Amidst the storm's rumbling, this conversation brought smiles to their faces.Hi: तूफान थमने लगा, और दिलों के बीच भी जमी बर्फ पिघलने लगी।En: The storm began to subside, and the ice between their hearts began to melt.Hi: अनया और कबीर ने समझा कि दूरियां भले ही भौगोलिक हों, मगर उनका रिश्ता मजबूत है अगर वे एक-दूसरे को समझें।En: Anaya and Kabir understood that distances may be geographical, but their relationship is strong if they understand one another.Hi: अब अनया ने तय किया कि वह दूर रहते हुए भी परिवार के साथ जुड़े रहने के लिए समय निकालेगी।En: Now, Anaya decided she would make time to stay connected with her family even while being apart.Hi: क्योंकि आजादी और परिवार का संबंध साथ चल सकते हैं, बस चाहत और समझ चाहिए।En: Because freedom and family relations can go hand in hand, only the desire and understanding are needed.Hi: समुद्र तट पर वापसी के समय, सूरज की किरणें समुद्र पर झिलमिला रही थीं।En: As they returned to the beach, the sun's rays twinkled on the ocean.Hi:

The side topic today for the 94 WIP Morning Show: what's the best combination of TV and movie role for example, Michael J. Fox as Marty McFly in Back to the Future as well as Alex P Keaton in Family Ties.

Live from the Borgata in Atlantic City, the 94 WIP Morning Show wonders if the Phillies can make the playoffs. Eliot Shorr-Parks believes they can't, but Joe DeCamara thinks they just need a better hitter. Today's side topic is the best TV and movie role combinations, like Michael J. Fox as Marty McFly in Back to the Future and Alex P. Keaton in Family Ties.

In this wildly entertaining episode of The Ben and Skin Show, Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray—celebrate Father's Day the only way they know how: by spiraling into a hilarious, nostalgic, and occasionally inappropriate deep dive into the greatest (and weirdest) TV dads of all time.From Al Bundy to Uncle Phil, the crew debates who belongs in the pantheon of iconic sitcom fathers. Expect hot takes, deep cuts, and a few “Wait, was he even a dad?” moments.Growing Pains, Family Ties, and the Clooney Lick: The crew stumbles through sitcom trivia, misremembers character names, and somehow ends up with George Clooney licking Mrs. Garrett's strudel on Facts of Life. Yes, it's as absurd as it sounds.

I’ve known for years that the actor and filmmaker Justine Bateman had prescient thoughts about art and society. But now, we need her (and her complementary background in computer science) more than ever. Far-removed from her teen stardom on Family Ties, Justine and I talk about how artificial intelligence threatens the existence of movies, books, and even our creative souls. I knew there was something to opting for privacy, and it turns out that Justine specifically sees it as a way to protect art as we know it. Plus, we discuss how fickle fame can be and why she finds beauty and practicality in aging naturally. Fail Better is now on YouTube! Watch this episode here. Follow me on Instagram at @davidduchovny.

Adults frequently use phrases such as 'They mean well,' 'They wanted the best for me,' and 'They did not mean it' to justify or minimize harmful parenting behaviors, which can hinder the establishment of healthy boundaries and affect professional relationships. Research indicates that loyalty to family can lead individuals to overlook or rationalize negative actions, often resulting in emotional strain. Studies show that pressure to obey parents out of fear can impact assertiveness and behavior in other areas. Experts recommend acknowledging both positive intentions and negative impacts, distinguishing between intentions and outcomes, and setting clear boundaries to support healthier relationships and leadership.Learn more on this news by visiting us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.

My 2 guests today created and will co-facilitate The Hour Before Dawn A Program for Inheritors of Wealth with Family Ties to the Nazi Regime who want to take ancestral responsibility and create a more just world. (https://www.irisbrilliant.com/the-hour-before-dawn) Iris Brilliant is a money coach based in Berlin, Germany. She guides wealthy people who are confused or conflicted about what to do with their money to create a deeply liberating vision and plan for their wealth. She has recently shaped her career to fight fascism globally. Justine Epstein is a facilitator and mentor for people with inherited wealth who want to examine the histories of their ancestors and money, and take meaningful action to address these legacies. Her approach combines ancestral research, contextual history, political education, wealth redistribution and divestment, with embodied mindfulness, ritual, connection to the natural world, and creative expression. They both come from wealthy families. You're about to hear how they've done intense personal work AND justice work. I'm swooning on that combination and it's a combination of work I aspire to do. You'll hear me ask them some challenging questions. You know, the stuff people who have wealth don't usually talk about in public? They talk about that stuff with a ton of transparency. I think it's courageous. Here's some of what we talked about: Iris and Justine's journeys with generational examination and healing around wealth Navigating wealth and relationships Shame, guilt, and transformative healing and action Building their collaborative partnership Creating and facilitating their program: The Hour Before Dawn Addressing the Palestinian genocide Show notes at https://rebeltherapist.me/podcast/246

Tread Perilously's WandaVision month enters Quality Time territory with an episode of Family Ties called "Suzanne Takes You Down." When Elyse's friend, Suzanne, admits to feeling unfulfilled now that the kids have left for college, she hires the forlorn friend to do some clerical work. But almost immediately, Suzanne begins offering opinions about architectural features of an upcoming project. Soon, Elyse is doing double the work while convincing clients that much of her friend's suggestions are not feasible or against building code. And just when she has had enough, Suzanne's husband announces he wants a divorce. Will Elyse find the courage to fire Suzanne? Erik and Justin immediately credit frequent guest Paul Pakler's former podcast, Quality Time with Family Ties, for covering the episode first. Erik's bias against Ethan Hawke makes an appearance. The initial premise of Family Ties gets examined as the episode has very little to do with the kids. Justin appraises the talents of Michael Gross and Meredith Baxter. Architecture remains the fakest TV job. Elyse and Steven's history as hippies leads to a tangent -- and the reason why Erik always connects the show with Airplane! The pair try to figure out if Jennifer ever gets a character and the "mild chuckle" philosophy returns.

This week, the ladies ask is the show Mid-Century Modern the new Golden Girls? Maya confuses Family Ties and Family Matters. How? Remember when Alex was on speed?

P.S. this venue is giving music in the park. Amy goes to the NFL Draft party and gets a huge compliment from a little girl. Don't sleep on the NFL garage sale. Amy helps a lost boy. Hot take…popsicles are not that great. A new vet implies Maya & Producer Tyler should murder their dog. Ummm, listen lady that dog is still trying to bang every day. Amy solves her own burglary. It's actually pretty amazing.
