In this episode of The Family Biz Show, family business consultant Michael Palumbos is joined by Shawn Barberis of More Than Money 360 to explore how high-net-worth families can protect and grow their family wealth by focusing on communication, values, and legacy—not just dollars. Together, they unpack proven strategies to strengthen generational continuity, including the five pillars of success and six laws of family advancement. 1. Shawn's Journey & "More Than Money" (02:23–08:18) Shawn shares why he left law to launch a firm focused on the relational and cultural side of legacy. He realized families needed more than documents—they needed systems to protect family wealth through values, communication, and structure. 2. Perception vs. Reality of Risk (14:53–17:00) Most families fear market loss, but data shows 85% of wealth loss stems from broken trust and poor communication. Shawn highlights why this mindset shift is crucial to family legacy. 3. The Engagement Process (19:10–21:05) A 3-step approach: educate the family, define the legacy goal, and build a values-based plan. Legacy is built through process—not a single event. 4. Five Pillars of Generational Success (23:10–27:26) The foundation of enduring family wealth: communication, core values, family legacy, philanthropy, and governance—all working together to sustain family purpose and identity. 5. Six Laws of Family Advancement (29:27–35:42) From gratitude over entitlement to rising gen empowerment and transparent meetings, Shawn shares six laws that help families sustain wealth and legacy long term. 6. System, Process & the MTM Meter (37:29–41:19) Shawn introduces the More Than Money Meter—a tool that tracks how prepared and satisfied families are across the five pillars. As he says, "You can't improve what you don't measure." Tangible Takeaways for Leaders of Family Businesses Realize that the biggest threat to your family's lasting wealth is likely not the markets — it's breakdown in communication, trust and shared purpose. Use a process, not just an event: Begin with the end in mind, build curriculum, set outcome criteria. Prioritize the rising generation early: Give them voice, let them lead in meaningful ways, particularly in areas like impact investing or philanthropy. Use measurement: As you would for a business strategic plan or financial plan, set baseline, track progress in communication, values, legacy and governance. Consider your advisor ecosystem: One "quarterback" advisor who understands the family, across generations, often provides better continuity than multiple siloed advisors.

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.

In the latest episode of SI Voices, host Hilary Ratcliffe welcomes Bev Bucur, Soroptimist International's Advocacy Advisor, to discuss why education is one of the organisation's five pillars of advocacy. Bev explains that education is a powerful driver of equality, empowering women and girls to achieve their potential and create lasting change within their communities.

"Yours, Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the majesty and the splendor, for everything in heaven and earth is yours." - 1 Chronicles 29:11If God owns it all, what does that mean for the way we manage money? Brian Holtz is here to unpack the Five Pillars of Financial Discipleship—principles that, when embraced by families, bring freedom and joy to their finances.Brian Holtz is the CEO of Compass Financial Ministry and the author of Financial Discipleship for Families: Intentionally Raising Faithful Children.More Than Money ManagementWhen it comes to managing money as followers of Christ, the Bible calls us to more than financial freedom or peace of mind. It calls us to financial discipleship—a life of stewardship, surrender, and multiplication for God's Kingdom. Here are five key pillars that shape this journey.Pillar One: OwnershipEverything begins with recognizing who truly owns it all. Scripture reminds us in Psalm 24:1, Haggai 2:8, and 1 Chronicles 29:11 that God is the Creator and ultimate Owner of everything. Our role is not ownership but stewardship. This mindset shift—from “mine” to “His”—brings both relief and challenge. It's freeing to know the responsibility doesn't all rest on us, but humbling to realize our lives and resources are not ultimately ours to control.Pillar Two: SurrenderAcknowledging God's ownership requires surrender. Luke 14:33 makes this clear: discipleship means yielding everything back to God, not just intellectually but in our hearts. This surrender extends beyond giving—it includes how we spend, save, and plan. Trusting God's plan over our own is an act of daily obedience.Pillar Three: ChoiceIn Matthew 6:24, Jesus tells us we cannot serve both God and money. Every financial decision—whether saving, giving, or spending—reveals who we serve. Choosing God requires aligning daily habits with His Word, even when it feels counterintuitive. As Isaiah reminds us, God's ways are higher and better than ours.Pillar Four: MultiplicationDiscipleship is never meant to stop with us. In the Parable of the Talents, Jesus calls us to multiply what He has entrusted to us. This means sharing what we've learned and inviting others into the journey. Financial discipleship involves helping others apply biblical wisdom so that God's Kingdom continues to grow.Pillar Five: Eternal FocusFinally, discipleship means setting our eyes on eternity. Jesus said in Matthew 6:19–21 to store up treasures in heaven, not on earth. But these treasures aren't material—they're about our relationship with Christ. Living with an eternal focus keeps us from being distracted by temporary wealth and anchors our hope in Him alone.How Financial Discipleship DiffersIt's easy to confuse financial discipleship with financial stewardship or freedom. Stewardship may stop at wise resource management, but discipleship goes further—it's about helping others learn, apply, and multiply biblical truth for God's glory. True discipleship always leads to transformation, both personally and in community.Compass Financial Ministry exists to equip believers to live this way. Through resources, training, and community, they help people break free from the love of money and serve God more fully. Financial discipleship is really about helping others learn, apply, and multiply everything for God's glory, rather than for our own. To learn more, visit CompassFinancialMinistry.org.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm about to receive money from a relative's trust and want to place it in a high-yield money market account.

In this episode of the Dad Edge Podcast, I sit down with Super Bowl Champion Heath Evans and his wife Chrissy, a powerhouse couple raising six kids—four of them adopted siblings—and leading with faith, love, and intentionality. Beyond the NFL career and business ventures, their mission is about adoption, marriage, and creating a Christ-centered home where safety, strength, and sacrificial love are at the core.   We dive deep into adoption, marriage dynamics, leadership in the home, and the foundation of their health and fitness business, Built Ready. From why safety is the #1 need of every woman to the five pillars of a man's health (holiness, hydration, rest, workouts, and nutrition), this conversation challenges cultural norms and inspires fathers to lead with faith, humility, and strength.     TIMELINE SUMMARY [0:00] - Welcome to the Dad Edge and today's guests: Heath and Chrissy Evans [1:48] - Heath's NFL career and transition to family and faith [2:13] - Raising six kids, including four adopted siblings [6:00] - Their calling to adoption and the heart behind Bethesda Ranch [7:30] - The struggles of sibling adoption and God's faithfulness in their journey [9:00] - The fatherless crisis and why the church must step up [11:00] - Fatherless home statistics and their generational impact [12:12] - Why a great dad is usually also a great husband [13:28] - Prioritizing marriage first to create security for kids [14:07] - Modeling unity in front of children and avoiding division [15:52] - Why parenting flows from the strength of your marriage [16:44] - Larry's son joins the conversation and a powerful NFL-to-dad lesson [19:00] - Talking faith and fears with kids—real conversations that matter [22:00] - Teaching kids reverence and the holiness of God [24:11] - Why Scripture, not worldly wisdom, is the anchor for parenting [25:24] - Chrissy shares what it feels like to be married to a man deeply rooted in Christ [26:15] - Safety as a wife's greatest need: emotional, spiritual, financial, and relational [29:00] - Respect, appreciation, affection for men vs. being seen, heard, and safe for women [31:15] - The power of forgiveness and humility in marriage [32:07] - Why true security comes from Christ, not success or performance [36:11] - Chrissy's reflections on submission, teamwork, and balance in marriage [40:20] - Heath's analogy of submarine leadership and servant-hearted strength [43:18] - The danger of self-reliance vs. dependence on Christ [46:23] - Why brokenness is often the beginning of real faith [49:23] - Built Ready's five pillars: holiness, hydration, rest, workout, and nutrition [53:05] - Why rest is non-negotiable for fathers and leaders [54:24] - Nutrition as stewardship, not idolatry [56:18] - Their supplement line and why A2 protein makes it unique [58:41] - Closing reflections and the Evans' heart for faith, family, and service     5 KEY TAKEAWAYS   1. Safety Is the Cornerstone of Marriage Chrissy powerfully explains that true safety goes beyond physical protection—it includes emotional, financial, spiritual, and relational security. When women feel safe, marriage flourishes. 2. Adoption Is God's Heart in Action The Evans adopted four siblings to keep them together, living out God's call to be a “father to the fatherless” and modeling how faith drives family decisions. 3. Marriage First, Parenting Second Strong marriages create strong families. Kids thrive when they see their parents united, affectionate, and committed to one another before all else. 4. Leadership Is Servanthood Heath challenges men to rethink leadership—not as dominance, but as sacrificial love modeled by Christ. True strength is found in humility, service, and faith. 5. The Five Pillars of Health Built Ready's framework—holiness, hydration, rest, workouts, and nutrition—shows why spiritual health must lead the way, with physical health supporting a man's mission to love and serve well.     LINKS & RESOURCES   Built Ready Health & Fitness: https://builtready.com Chrissy Evans (Weight Loss Hero): https://weightlosshero.com Heath Evans on Instagram: https://instagram.com/heath_evans44 Chrissy Evans on Instagram: https://instagram.com/weightlosshero Contact Heath: heath@builtready.com Contact Chrissy: chrissy@weightlosshero.com Dad Edge Podcast Website: https://www.thedadedge.com/podcast Join The Alliance: https://www.thedadedge.com/alliance 25 Questions to Spark Connection With Your Partner: https://www.thedadedge.com/25questions       If this episode inspired you to rethink marriage, leadership, and fatherhood, please rate, review, follow, and share the podcast.

Have you ever looked at someone who's done something so extraordinary that you thought, “I could never do that”? What if you could, and it simply meant changing the way you think?In this episode of the Visibly Fit Podcast, I sit down with Joe Gagnon, a man who has proven that what seems impossible is often just the beginning.

On this episode, Mason Terra rejoins the podcast for the first time since his appearance on episode 204. Mason catches us up on everything that has happened since his episode aired earlier this year. He discusses his performative art exhibit where he trapped himself in a box for 24 hours and took prompts and created drawings like AI. We dive into how we feel about AI and not allowing it to take away our creative ability as humans. Also, Mason goes into detail about his Azores trip and what it meant to him. As well as, mentioning that he was accepted into an art trip program to go to the Azores and network later next year. Then, we talk about what Mason thought of my book and the value of the pillars.

Have you ever found yourself wondering why so many large-scale property management companies rise quickly… and then fall just as fast? In this episode, I'm joined by Ashley Ching, Founder and CEO of Inhaven, who brings a fresh - and deeply researched - perspective to this question. Ashley recently published an eye-opening report, “A 25-Year History of Hospitality Management: Why Local Wins and National Scale Fails.” And when I say it's a must-read… I mean it. We talk in-depth about  the rise and fall of companies like Vacasa and Aimbridge, and what their journeys can teach us about sustainable growth and operational excellence in our own businesses. Ashley doesn't just point fingers - she outlines the five key pillars that support successful hospitality operations, no matter your size. If you're managing short-term rentals and thinking about how to grow without losing your sanity (or your staff), this one is absolutely packed with insights.

This conversation is with men's fertility expert Josh Paigen — whose path took him from a childhood fascination with the natural world to helping men and couples prepare for healthy conception. We explore the alarming global decline in sperm count, why preconception health is about far more than simply being able to conceive, and Josh's five pillars of male fertility: sustenance, purity, exercise, rest, and mindset. Along the way, we dive into the roles of nutrition, environmental toxins, circadian rhythms, and even inherited trauma in shaping reproductive health — and how small, intentional lifestyle shifts can have a profound impact on future generations.You can expect to learn• Why sperm count is plummeting (and why this matters)• Five pillars of male fertility you can start today• How diet, toxins, and lifestyle shape reproductive health• Sleep, stress, and mindsets' hidden role in fertility• Epigenetics: how trauma and health choices get passed on• Simple changes that can boost fertility and overall vitality[Timestamps]05:43 Understanding Preconception Health11:54 Sperm as a Biomarker for Health17:27 Nutrition and Sperm Health23:50 Understanding Everyday Toxins29:22 Minimizing EMF Exposure38:19 Circadian Rhythms and Hormonal Balance47:56 Mindset and Holistic Health55:35 The Interconnection of Health and Fertility01:00:58 Understanding Epigenetics and Trauma01:08:36 Challenging Myths in FertilityConnect with Josh

I'm joined today by the brilliant Elizabeth Ralph, former energy trader turned spiritual teacher, investor, and host of The Spiritual Investor Podcast. Elizabeth's Spiritual Investor Method blends financial strategy with energetic alignment, helping people move from survival-mode money patterns into effortless wealth and sovereignty. We dig into how deeply-ingrained beliefs shape your financial reality, why “money is energy” is more than a nice concept, and how to collapse the gap between where you are and where you want to be. We explore why wealthy people often operate from a baseline assumption that money is easy to create, while many others unconsciously normalize struggle. If you've ever wrestled with the idea that you can't be both deeply spiritual and financially free, this conversation will open your mind, dissolve old limitations, and invite you to step fully into the role of conscious wealth creator.
