On today's episode, we welcome Genevieve Dolan, Founder & CEO of Golden Child Beauty — the modern skincare brand built around balance, simplicity, and supporting skin through real life.Genevieve's path to building Golden Child Beauty was shaped by years of navigating cystic acne, prescription treatments, and extremes that often left her skin — and confidence — worse off. Instead of launching an overwhelming routine, she chose a radically restrained approach: a simple system designed to calm, hydrate, and support the skin barrier, while working alongside stress, seasonal changes, and even dermatologist-prescribed treatments.In this episode, Genevieve shares why doing less can actually create better results, how emotional trust plays a role in skincare, and what it takes to build products people rely on — not just physically, but emotionally. We talk about restraint in a hype-driven industry, transparency, product compatibility, and how to scale a brand without losing its intention. A thoughtful conversation for founders, operators, and anyone rethinking how skincare — and self-care — can feel more supportive and human. Are you interested in sponsoring and advertising on The Kara Goldin Show, which is now in the Top 1% of Entrepreneur podcasts in the world?

This episode of #NoVacancyNews looks at how a hotel management merger came together — the conversations, timing, and decisions that led up to it. I spoke with Len Wolman, Chairman & CEO of Waterford Hotel Group, and Bob Habeeb, Founder & CEO of Maverick Hotels and Restaurants, about how their relationship developed, how long the process took, and what needed to line up before they moved forward.

They walk through the steps as they happened, without wrapping the story in theory or hindsight. We cover:

In this episode of Superpowers for Good, Julie Colombino-Billingham, Founder and CEO of Deux Mains, an affordable luxury goods company manufacturing ethical products in Haiti, shares her inspiring story. Julie's work demonstrates how business can be a force for good, especially in one of the most economically challenged countries in the Western Hemisphere.Julie didn't arrive in Haiti to start a business. After the devastating 2010 earthquake, she deployed as a trained disaster responder to help with relief efforts. What began as a short-term mission turned into a life-changing journey. “The women of Haiti were so strong, so brave, and so courageous,” Julie explained. “I really just wanted to be like them…I ended up staying and living there for five years and starting this business.”Deux Mains, which means “two hands” in French, is a testament to the power of collaboration and perseverance. The company manufactures luxury handbags, wallets, and other leather goods using deadstock leather and materials from responsible tanneries. These products, crafted by Haitian artisans earning a fair wage, are now sold in major retailers like Nordstrom and Kohl's. Despite the country's instability, Deux Mains continues to thrive. “The business is not only growing but flourishing under the leadership of my Haitian colleagues,” Julie said.Beyond exporting chic handbags, Deux Mains has a significant local impact. Last year, they manufactured and distributed 10,000 pairs of leather school shoes for Haitian children. The factory, powered entirely by solar energy, employs 45 full-time staff and serves as a model for sustainable development in Haiti.Julie's story is one of transformation—both personal and collective. Her journey highlights how listening to the needs of a community can inspire lasting change. “A woman said to me, ‘Hey, white lady, I don't want water. I need a job,'” Julie recalled. That moment shifted her perspective from short-term aid to creating long-term economic opportunities.Deux Mains proves that ethical fashion can make a global impact while empowering local communities. Julie's vision serves as a powerful reminder that meaningful change begins when we listen, act with purpose, and invest in people.tl;dr:Julie Colombino-Billingham founded Deux Mains after witnessing Haiti's resilience following the 2010 earthquake.Deux Mains creates ethical, sustainable luxury goods while employing Haitian artisans earning a living wage.The company's solar-powered factory produces products sold globally, including in Nordstrom and Kohl's.Julie credits her success to listening deeply to community needs, focusing on long-term economic impact.The episode highlights Julie's superpower of listening, offering actionable tips for cultivating this skill.How to Develop Deep Listening As a SuperpowerJulie's superpower is her ability to listen deeply and empathetically, enabling her to understand and act on the real needs of others. Reflecting on her early days in Haiti, she shared a pivotal moment: “A woman said to me, ‘Hey, white lady, I don't want any water. I need a job.'” That simple yet profound statement transformed Julie's approach, shifting her focus from short-term disaster relief to launching Deux Mains, a business creating sustainable jobs for Haitians. Listening, as Julie explained, “revolutionized my experience and my participation.”Julie shared a story that exemplifies her superpower in action. Early in her time in Haiti, she grew frustrated with the mess in the factory, asking, “Why is everything always a mess here?” Her Haitian business partner, Jolina, calmly replied, “We don't have any garbage cans.” This moment reminded Julie to step outside her own frame of reference and truly listen to her colleagues. By addressing such a simple, overlooked need, she cultivated a culture of collaboration and respect that continues to define Deux Mains.Tips for Developing Deep Listening:Believe that everyone in the room has valuable insights to contribute.Step outside your own perspective to understand others' realities.Ask open-ended questions to uncover underlying needs and concerns.Build trust by acting on the feedback you receive.Practice humility when faced with solutions that challenge your assumptions.By following Julie's example and advice, you can make deep listening a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

Are you currently debating whether to "Buy Term and Invest the Difference" or build a private banking system with Whole Life?In this episode, David Befort and Paul Fugere put the most popular financial advice—including Dave Ramsey's top talking points—through the IBC Stress Test. If you've been told that Whole Life is a "scam" or that you should only ever buy Term, you are likely missing the most critical piece of the puzzle: The Difference Between Renting and Owning.Why you need to listen to this episode: Most people are taught to treat insurance as a "sunk cost" or a necessary evil. But what if your premium wasn't a cost, but a transfer of assets? We dive deep into why "renting" your protection through Term insurance often leads to a dead end, with ~98% of policies never actually paying out a death benefit.In this episode, we break down:The "Renting" Trap: Why Term insurance is designed to expire just when you need it most, and why "investing the difference" often fails in the real world.The Ernst & Young Reality Check: We discuss the landmark study that shows "Buy Term and Invest the Difference" (BTID) consistently finishes dead last when it comes to retirement spending and legacy.The "Both/And" Strategy: How to use Convertible Term as a bridge to a high-performance IBC policy, allowing you to stop the "leakage" of your wealth and start the process of uninterrupted compounding.Debunking the "Company Keeps Your Cash" Myth: We clarify exactly how your cash value and death benefit work together so you can stop being afraid of the "living benefits" of your policy.Whether you are a "Dave Ramsey person" looking for a second opinion or an investor searching for a way to maximize your Human Life Value, this episode will show you how to stop wasting money on temporary fixes and start building a permanent financial foundation.Stop being a tenant in your own financial life.

From the earliest days of rocketry, progress has always belonged to the scientist willing to think beyond the limits of their time. Long before rockets reached orbit, pioneers like Robert H. Goddard laid the mathematical and experimental foundations that proved spaceflight was even possible. And not long after, figures like Jack Parsons helped turn theory into raw, explosive reality—building the propulsion systems that would eventually carry humanity beyond Earth. Today, we stand at a similar inflection point. Chemical rockets took us to the Moon, but if humanity is going to reach the stars, we'll need ideas that once again sound impossible—until they aren't. In this episode, we're exploring one of the most fantastic frontiers in modern physics: warp drive theory.

Claims ops keeps buying “automation” that quietly adds work: more review, more disputes, more cycle time. The real villain is verification overhead—when you still have to check everything, “80% automated” is a new cost center disguised as progress. Ralph von Grafenstein, Founder/CEO, DocuSketch, has lived the messy middle of property claims: documentation fights, estimate friction, and payout delays between restorers and carriers. His model is blunt: shrink cycle time by redesigning the workflow and centralizing quality—not by selling buzzwords.

In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, speaks to Cedric Bertelli, founder of the Emotional Health Institute, discusses his methodology, Emotional Resolution (EMRS), which addresses emotional imprints through somatic neuroscience. Inspired by his grandfather's resilience post-WWII, Cedric developed EMRS to help individuals resolve emotional patterns by feeling physical sensations without control. He explains that the brain predicts emotions based on past experiences, often rooted in trauma, and EMRS allows these predictions to play out naturally, updating the brain's response.   For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/cedric-bertelli    Highlights from today's episode include:  Emotions are outdated predictions: Debilitating emotions are often outdated predictions from the brain, triggered when current stimuli resemble elements from past traumatic moments. The body then recreates old physical sensations (interoception), even when they're no longer relevant. Resolution by fully feeling sensations (90 seconds) : If a person can safely stay with the raw physical sensations of an emotion—without trying to regulate, fix, or control them—the interoceptive wave naturally completes within about 30–90 seconds, and the brain updates its prediction, so the same stimulus no longer triggers that reaction. Stop building stories; stay with the body: Manon emphasizes the importance of not creating or feeding mental stories about what we feel. By witnessing the emotion innocently and staying with the body's sensations rather than the narrative, we allow real resolution instead of reinforcing the pattern.   ABOUT CEDRIC BERTELLI: Cedric Bertelli is the founder of the Emotional Health Institute and co-developer of Emotional Resolution® & EmRes®, a somatic, neuroscience-based approach for resolving emotional imprints. Before dedicating himself to emotional health, Cedric spent more than a decade in the hospitality industry, including leadership roles with The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company, where he developed a deep understanding of human behavior and service.

His work focuses on making emotional healing simple, effective, and accessible so people can live with greater clarity, ease, and resilience. Core purpose/passion: My core purpose is to help people reconnect with their natural capacity to resolve emotional pain.

In this episode, we provide deep economic insights into why traditional savings are a guaranteed loss of purchasing power and how you can pivot toward true wealth building.

Matt interviews Tim Bratz, breaking down why Tim has challenged “traditional” syndication norms—especially fee-heavy structures and LP/GP splits that can leave operators with too little skin in the game. Tim shares how his equity/preferred return approach evolved from his single-family/private money background, and how tighter cash flow post-pandemic has pushed him toward more creative capital stacks (assumable debt, seller carry, accrued pref, and depreciation levers). He also digs into why third-party property management misaligns incentives, why in-house management is a key common denominator among operators who aren't struggling right now, and how he's building an AI-powered, all-in-one property management platform to unify ops + accounting + payments + reporting.

In one of our earliest episodes, Chris Gethard and Gary Gulman, two hilarious and talented comedians, actors, and authors, sat down with Marlon to discuss what life has been like since the release of their own critically acclaimed HBO Original Comedy Specials, each of which dives deeply into their personal mental health journeys. We're revisiting this conversation at a moment when the world could really use some funny people being honest, thoughtful, and human about what it actually takes to keep going.

In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, speaks to Ken Blackman who discusses the dynamics of breakups, highlighting that anxiously attached individuals often initiate them. Blackman advocates for building relationships that provide mutual support, especially during challenging times, to foster long-term happiness and health. For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/ken-blackman    Highlights from today's episode include:  Ken explains Chemistry vs. intimacy: A great relationship needs both spark and the safety to be fully yourself, not constantly "protecting the vibe." Ken explains Healthy breakup: A loving split sounds like "I see you, I get what you need, it's valid—but it's outside my range," with mutual respect, grief, and relief. Manon explains Real freedom: What feels most free is not many partners, but being completely yourself—"weirdness" and all—with one person who truly gets you.   ABOUT KEN BLACKMAN: A former Apple engineer turned relationship mindset coach and intimacy educator, Ken Blackman is currently celebrating his 25th year helping couples co-create a thriving, fulfilling life partnership and a gourmet love life. His work has garnered mentions in Business Insider, Playboy, Tim Ferriss's 4-Hour series, Cosmopolitan, and elsewhere. He's a regular featured contributor to The Good Men Project, Better Humans, and his own Medium publication, The Craft of Intimate Coupledom. Core purpose/passion: I think my superpower as a relationship coach is to be a translator and help them see and understand each other. I tend to listen and ask, listen and ask, until I feel like I see the world through one partner's eyes. Then I do the same with the other partner, listen and ask until I see the world through their eyes. Then I help them see each other. Sometimes translation; is just saying to one partner exactly what I heard the other say, but as though I'm speaking to the most important, honorable person in the world, whom I have the highest regard for. –  Facebook |  Instagram |  Medium  |  Website |  BlueSky | Threads    ABOUT MANON BOLLIGER, RBHT, FCAH: As a retired Naturopath 1992-2021, I saw an average of 150 patients per week and have helped people ranging from rural farmers in Nova Scotia to stressed out CEOs in Toronto to tri-athletes here in Vancouver.

Carina is building foundation models trained on verified proofs instead of human-written reasoning. Byron leads AWS's automated reasoning group, which secures massive infrastructure with mathematically proven systems. During this live IA Summit conversation, they explore what it means to build AI that actually reasons and why verified intelligence is critical for domains where being right really matters. They dive into: 1) Why today's models fail at objective truth in high-stakes domains 2) How verification bridges the gap between correctness and scale 3) What superintelligent reasoning engines might unlock 4) The future of AI in finance, chips, healthcare, and beyond This is a must-watch for any founder or builder working in AI, infrastructure, or high-consequence systems.

In this episode of the Govcon Giants Podcast, Eric Coffie sits down with Melanie Patterson, Founder & CEO of Integrity Global Logistics and Team Integrity Knowledge Center for a candid conversation on what it really takes to win government work without getting ignored, overlooked, or stuck in "bid mode." Melanie breaks down the mindset shift from employee to entrepreneur, using a powerful metaphor: you have to "date the government"—learn their language, understand how they operate, and build trust the right way. Melanie shares her underdog story—from ER trauma nursing to entrepreneurship in transportation and logistics—where she took a bold leap, cashed out her 401(k) to fund her next chapter, built an 18-wheeler fleet, and started winning state and city contracts before stepping into federal. Along the way, she explains why niching down is the fastest path to credibility, how partnerships unlock contracts you can't fulfill alone, and why execution (not motivation) is where most small businesses break down. The episode also tackles real-world tension business owners face—politics vs. profits—and why separating emotion from strategy is critical if you want consistent revenue, payroll stability, and long-term scale. Key Takeaways "Date the government." Capability statements alone won't get attention—learning their language, responding strategically, and building trust will. Niche down, then expand. Being known for one clear capability gets you in the door; strong performance opens bigger opportunities. Execution beats information. Free resources help, but pipeline, outreach, bids, and deliverables are what actually build a GovCon business.

Flighty has changed how we experience air travel. The flight tracking app, which obsessively focuses on the user experience and data accuracy, has been mentioned in nearly all our episodes since Paul got on the beta in early 2019, and we're so pleased to welcome Ryan Jones, the Founder CEO of Flighty, for an entertaining chat on everything Flighty, and more. Ryan shares the journey of creating this epic app, the importance of design, the challenges of data acquisition, the commitment to providing real-time information  and how the three founders prioritize new innovative features.We learn who uses Flighty the most (can you guess?) and the role of the community in shaping the app's development and future directions for Flighty (Ryan loves feedback!).We realize how intricate it is to track a flight, and the challenges of providing timely information and flight statuses (and what to surface when, during our flying journeys). Not everything is equal, some territories are better than others, some airports or airlines better than others (there's one that doesn't seem to care). And yes, Paul asks Ryan about his favorite airport, and he tells us which one he hates hahaha (Paul and Ryan find a commonality in hating carpets!), and his plan to change the IATA code for Austin. We had tremendous fun talking to Ryan, and the two hours flew by. Thank you, Ryan, and your two co-founders, for creating such a beautifully designed experience.

FAA Medical Disqualification Just Cost You $300k (Here's How to Protect It)Are you flying your finances blind? For many airline pilots, a $300,000 annual income is just one medical disqualification away from becoming zero. In this episode, Paul Fugere and David Befort discuss why traditional financial planning—like locking wealth in a 401k or the walls of your home—can leave pilots grounded and liquid-poor when they need cash the most.We dive into the "financial walk-around" every pilot needs to perform to ensure their family's safety and their own financial "airworthiness".https://www.thewealthwarehousepodcast.com/In This Episode, You'll Learn:The Fragility of the First-Class Medical: Why 1 in 20 pilots are on long-term disability at any given time.The 260% Danger Zone: Why medical denial rates spike between the ages of 45 and 55.The "No-Brainer" Insurance Rider: How the Disability Waiver of Premium ensures your policy continues to grow even if you lose your ability to fly.Aviate, Navigate, Communicate: Applying the first rule of flight to your money—why liquidity is the "fuel" that keeps your financial engine running.The Power of IBC for Pilots: How to use windfalls like profit-sharing bonuses, back pay, and green slips to build a private "war chest" you control.Key Statistics for Aviators:Nearly 5 out of every 1,000 active airline pilots are denied medical certification annually.Standard long-term disability often only covers 50% of your average paycheck—could you maintain your lifestyle on half your income?.Typical company-provided life insurance (often $1M) may only cover 4-5 years of income, leaving families vulnerable in the long term.About your hosts: https://www.thewealthwarehousepodcast.com/David Befort and Paul Fugere are the hosts of the Wealth Warehouse Podcast.

Based in San Diego but rooted in Nashville, Margie serves as a champion for leaders who want to elevate their impact and build cultures anchored in connection, integrity, and clarity.SHOW SUMMARYIn this episode of Selling from the Heart Podcast. Larry Levine and Darrell Amy are joined by Margie Newman Tsay, founder of Intesa Communications Group, who shares her expertise in strategic communications, reputation management, executive coaching, and crisis response. Margie emphasizes the need for clarity, brevity, and effective communication during crises and how these skills are essential for building trust and credibility. She also highlights the role of continuous learning and vulnerability in becoming a successful communicator, regardless of age or gender. The episode underscores the overlooked necessity of crisis communication training in the sales profession and offers actionable insights for sales leaders and professionals.KEY TAKEAWAYSCommunication requires repetition - Say things 10-11 times before people truly retain them; don't assume once is enough Make the customer the hero - Focus on their goals and needs, not your product or yourself Reputation is built daily - Trust and authenticity come from how you show up every single day, not just when making a sale Surprises are for birthdays - Over-communicate to avoid catching people off guard in business relationships Crisis communication essentials - Focus on brevity, roles, and goals; reduce oxygen to the flame rather than escalating Diversify your network - Learn from people across different ages, genders, and industries to expand your communication toolkit Humans first in crisis - Remember everyone defaults to fear and ego under pressure; sometimes people just need to be heardQUOTES"Selling from the heart means remembering that it's not about you. Make the customer the hero." "Surprises are for birthdays. You gotta communicate, communicate, communicate in four different ways to make sure people get it." "Leadership is context. When we stop communicating and giving that context, trust erodes." "No one is born a great communicator. This is a learned skill. You can start today being a great communicator." "In a crisis, our brains are ego and overwhelm.

In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, speaks to health coach and nervous system expert Mitch Webb who shares his powerful journey from biohacking and forcing his body to heal, to embracing trauma-informed, somatic, and nervous system-based healing. Discover how shifting from survival mode to self-trust and gentle awareness can transform chronic symptoms and expand your capacity for life. For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/mitch-webb     Highlights from today's episode include:  Force vs. healing: Mitch describes how intense biohacking, strict diets, and "overwhelming force" helped only temporarily—true, sustainable healing began when he addressed unresolved trauma and his nervous system. Sensitization & safety: Mitch explains sensitization (chronic hyper-vigilance, fear, and shrinking life) and how building safety, capacity, and self-trust through somatic and nervous system work allowed his symptoms to ease and his life to expand. Bowen as a doorway to safety: Manon highlights how Bowen therapy can gently guide the body out of constant sympathetic overdrive, helping people slow down, become observers of their physical experience, and open another doorway into the deeper healing process.   ABOUT MITCH WEBB: Mitch Webb is a health coach and nervous system expert who helps clients heal from the inside out. He works one-on-one with people dealing with gut issues, anxiety, autoimmune symptoms, fatigue, burnout, and other chronic conditions that haven't resolved through conventional approaches. Mitch blends functional health principles with deep nervous system work to get to the root cause—so healing isn't just a quick fix, it's sustainable. His approach is trauma-informed, body-based, and tailored to the individual. If you're ready to feel like yourself again, Mitch helps you get there. To contact, visit mitchwebb.com Core purpose/passion: My core mission is to help people heal their nervous systems so they can stop chasing symptoms and start trusting their bodies again.

On today's episode, we welcome Jen Hardell, Founder & CEO of Subourbon Life — the bourbon-based ready-to-drink cocktail brand redefining how—and when—America's native spirit is enjoyed.Jen is a visionary founder with deep operational experience in consumer and spirits businesses. With Subourbon Life, she identified a clear gap in the fast-growing RTD category: while vodka and tequila dominated shelves, bourbon lacked a lighter, more social, lifestyle-forward expression. She set out to change that by creating non-carbonated bourbon cocktails made with real aged bourbon, thoughtfully sourced ingredients, and a strong emphasis on community through the brand's “Find Your People” philosophy.In this episode, Jen shares how she translated operational rigor into building a founder-led spirits brand, the challenges of bringing an RTD bourbon from concept to shelf, and how Subourbon Life balances quality, consistency, and scalability in a crowded market. From flavor development and branding to distribution and leadership, this conversation offers valuable insight for founders, operators, and anyone curious about innovation in CPG and spirits. Are you interested in sponsoring and advertising on The Kara Goldin Show, which is now in the Top 1% of Entrepreneur podcasts in the world?
