If we could, Bob and I would continue operating our cafe together forever.  But we're realizing, much as we love the work, that if we don't start transitioning our skills, the cafe will only last as long as our knees and feet will hold up.  If it's going to last forever, it has to stand without us.  And that brings it's own travails to our hearts and minds. I'm Shannon Hayes, and you're listening to Season 7, Episode 7 of The Hearth of Sap Bush Hollow.  Find the transcript of this story over on the blog.  Thanks to Thomas Oxford with Unsplash! for the toad image. Support the show

You may have many people in your life who are very excited to meet and love on your baby, or who want to support you after your birth. This is a great problem to have, right? But maybe you feel overwhelmed, crowded, or smothered by it. Maybe some of the people who are eager to get into your postpartum space bring up feelings of discomfort or resistance: having them there just doesn't feel good in your body, even though they're very nice and/or related to you. Do they have a right to be there anyway? Are you obligated to tell your parents the moment the baby comes out? Is it necessary to allow your in-laws to visit and "meet the baby" within 24 hours? Should you allow others to hold the baby that first week? In this episode we explore the concerns and tensions that many mothers (and fathers) experience about how to include loved ones in the earliest days of their baby's lives, what it looks like to honor the critical time period of the first week of a baby's life when the mother and baby are a dyad, and how to lovingly and clearly set boundaries or establish expectations with both healthy and unhealthy people.

AI is already shaping the most personal part of your life: how you understand your body, your symptoms, and your next healthcare decision. We sit down with Dr. Ami Bhat, a board-certified cardiologist, Chair of the FDA Digital Health Advisory Committee, and Chief Innovation Officer at the American College of Cardiology, to translate the hype into practical, human-first guidance you can actually use.We talk about hybrid care and why the “first mile” of healthcare belongs at home, where real life happens. Dr. Bhat explains how to find your own baseline for blood pressure, sleep, and heart rate, how trends can reveal early warning signs, and how AI can help clinicians handle medical information overload without replacing the clinician-patient relationship.We also get specific about tools: wearables, voice-to-text documentation that lets doctors stop staring at screens, and health-focused large language models designed for clinical use. Then we tackle the hard parts: health anxiety spirals, AI mistakes, and women's cardiovascular health where heart attack symptoms can be atypical and too often dismissed. We close with a clear argument for chronic disease management at home to reduce ER bottlenecks and protect quality of life. If you want a smarter way to use AI in healthcare without getting misled, hit play. Subscribe, share this with someone managing a chronic condition, and leave a review with the one health metric you want to understand better.You can find Dr. Ami Bhatt at:Website - https://dramibhatt.com/Send us your desired health topic or guest suggestions Please Follow and Review this podcast if you would like to support the growth of this show.

In this episode, Madelyn and Emma discuss Hearthstone and MIO: Memories in Orbit and everything you can and can't do with cards. Also featuring body metaphors, keeping things under control, and what makes a Soulslike.

‘When we get that feeling, we want self-healing' or something like that.This week we discuss how we look after ourselves. Or at least, how we try to. It doesn't always go to plan. But one thing's for sure, Susie can nap absolutely anywhere.Today's guest is Amy A. O'Day, founder of The Reconnected Self and creator of a method she calls Compassionate Self-Healing.After spending decades living with chronic illness, multiple diagnoses, ongoing fatigue, autoimmune conditions, hormonal issues, sensitivities, and a long list of health challenges, Amy began exploring the connection between emotional patterns, subconscious beliefs, and physical wellbeing. Through that work, she says she was able to restore her own health and went on to develop her approach to emotional healing.Amy's work looks at the idea that experiences from the past, unresolved emotions, and deeply held beliefs can shape the way we feel physically and emotionally in the present—showing up as stress, anxiety, burnout, chronic symptoms, and a whole host of other issues.We talk to Amy about her journey through illness and recovery, the origins of The Reconnected Self, the relationship between mind and body, and how our internal world can influence the way we experience health.Check out her website for more info and access to two free courses she offers as a starting point.If you enjoy the show, please follow or subscribe wherever you get your podcasts, leave us a quick review and share with someone you love.Now, hang on to your hats because…….WE'RE GOING LIVE!!!

Did you ever think about the adjectives we choose to describe a good female student, vs a good male student?  Ula graduated this weekend, and we heard a lot of adjectives being thrown about for the scholars.  But what word should be chosen for a girl like Ula, who wondered if she would ever be able to complete a college degree?I'm Shannon Hayes, and you're listening to Season 7, Episode 6 of The Hearth of Sap Bush Hollow.  Find the text of this story on the https://www.sapbushfarmstore.com/s/stories/fearless.Support the show

What do you do when the people you love don't support your decision to have a homebirth? In this episode, we're talking through one of the most common and emotionally loaded questions we hear from families: “How do I handle the disapproval?”Whether it's a parent, friend, pastor, sibling, or someone from your community, navigating outside opinions during pregnancy can bring up fear, people-pleasing, insecurity, grief, and even old wounds we didn't realize were still there. We talk honestly about what these conversations can reveal inside of us, how to discern when to engage versus when to hold privacy, and what healthy boundaries can actually look like in real life.We also unpack how every relationship requires a different approach. A concerned mother may need a different response than a judgmental acquaintance. Some conversations may call for gentleness and reassurance, while others may require firm boundaries and less access altogether.And perhaps most importantly, we remind listeners of something that can feel incredibly freeing: you are not obligated to disclose your birth plans to anyone.We hope it leaves you feeling grounded, empowered, and reminded that discernment, wisdom, and privacy are not secrecy or selfishness.Mentioned in this Episode:We talk about HUSBANDS being resistant to home birth in this episode: Home Birth Hesitant Husbands by Holy Wild BirthHome Birth Safety resource roll: Home Birth SafetyConnect:Email us to say hi: hello@hearthmotherministries.comPut in a request for future topics and/or submit a question for future Q&A episodes: Fill out the formApply to tell your birth story on the podcast: Holy Wild Birth Podcast : Guest ApplicationHang out with us and other Holy Wild Women in our private community (off Facebook): Rooted in Eden PMABecome a holy, wild birthkeeper with us inside Hearthmother JourneyFrom Lauren:InstagramMidwifery consults: Email  rootedinedenpma@gmail.comFrom Brooke:InstagramTrust God, Trust Birth Workshop - a 5-part high-level roadmap to a confident home birth (pay what you can)Faith-Filled Home Birth Workshop - a free, 3-part video series delivered to your inboxEmbrace Birth Journey - comprehensive and holistic faith-based home birth preparation (courses + private community)Sister Birth: The Podcast - short, beautifully scripted episode to encourage your along the wayIntro and Outra Music Credit -Betty Dear By Blue Dot Sessions is licensed under a Creative Commons License.

Dave makes a dish from his past, Marco Canora's gnocchi from his days at Hearth. It's been over 20 years, but Dave can still remember the kitchen like it was yesterday. Food serves as time travel, taking him back in time as he makes this 2-ingredient dish and a beurre monté.  Grateful for his time there and reminiscing on what he learned, Dave also does a lot of work with only 2 ingredients, resulting in a dish that is fluffy, pillowy, and delicious.

George Howell has been working in coffee longer than most roasters have been alive. In 1975, he opened the Coffee Connection in Boston's Harvard Square, with a strong conviction that great drip coffee—single-origin, lightly roasted, treated like wine—could change the way Americans drank their morning brew. It did. George also helped popularize the Frappuccino, sold his company to Starbucks, cofounded the influential Cup of Excellence, pioneered the freezing of green coffee, and opened a new café inside a Harvard Square bookstore—at age 80. In this episode, we speak with the godfather of specialty coffee about all of it. And it's the return of Three Things, where Aliza and Matt discuss what's interesting in the food world, including a reminder that Hearth is one of New York's finest restaurants. Potluck Club is cooking exciting things in Manhattan's Chinatown, and Echo Lake is a celebration of rum in Brooklyn from a serious drinks world duo. Also: Tart's black malt vinegar is inspiring some kitchen explorations, a scene report from the Kiln x Comal pop-up in New York, and high praise for the Barker Cafeteria roasted sweet potato sandwich.

In this episode, Tim recaps the month with Jason Tolleson (Senior Director of Government Affairs, HPBA) to dive into the busiest season for hearth industry advocacy. From state legislatures in full swing to federal agencies working against tight deadlines, this conversation reveals the high-stakes policy battles shaping the industry's future. In this episode, Tim and Jason cover: • How the new Government Affairs Leadership Academy class will hit Capitol Hill in June for real-world advocacy experience—armed with homework on the Energy Choice Act committee report • Why EPA's New Source Performance Standards deadline of December 2027 means manufacturers and retailers need to pay attention now, not later • The messy reality of tariff refunds and why finding out who actually paid duties could determine whether your business gets money back Don't miss Jason's insights on building relationships with newly appointed EPA officials and how the industry's past regulatory experiences are informing today's strategic conversations—plus details on the upcoming retailer policy update that could impact your business directly. --- This episode is a production of The Hearth, Patio & Barbecue Association and The Fire Time Network.

How do you tell your story—when the world keeps asking you what you are, instead of who you are? In this episode of Hearth 2 Heart, Gayathri Shukla sits down with author, yoga therapist, and Ayurvedic practitioner Serena Arora to explore a deeply personal journey of identity, lineage, and coming home to oneself. Drawing from her book Unbound, Serena shares what it means to grow up navigating mixed identity, cultural expectations, and the lifelong search for belonging. Together, they unpack:The tension between “immigrit” and “immiguilt”—and how grit and guilt both shape our choicesWhat it means to carry (and eventually put down) the invisible “backpack” Why belonging is not something to become, but something to just beHow generational patterns live in us—and how we begin to consciously shift themHow telling your story can help you find alignmentThis conversation is both grounding and expansive—a reminder that belonging is not found in a place, a title, or a path…but in the quiet, ongoing practice of returning to yourself.Resources mentioned:Serena Arora's book, Unbound: An Immigrant Daughter's Journey of Reckoning, Unraveling Shame, and Reclaiming Her Worthwww.serenaarora.comwww.campfirekinship.com

In this episode of NeedleXChange, I interview Charlotte Wood, a mixed media artist known for exploring the beauty in ugliness through character-led, emotionally resonant work.Charlotte trained through an MA in embroidery and works across hand, machine, and sculptural textile approaches - with a deep curiosity for how craft and experimentation collide.We go deep on her making: learning the rules before breaking them, moving from perfectionism towards controlled chaos, what commercial embroidery taught her about speed and being “less precious”, and how her technician/teaching role (plus special effects + foam fabrication skills) are shaping what she wants to build next.Links:Instagram: woodsembroideryWebsite: woodsembroidery.weebly.comIntro music is Ever So Blue by Hearth via Epidemic Sound.About NeedleXChangeAn artist interview podcast exploring contemporary embroidery and textile art.

Farming's a tricky business, and managing for cash flow is hard.  Managing for profit is even harder.  So we farmers learn to be careful with our money.  Those management skills mean we get pretty good at living within our means.  But they can cause a total head trip on those rare occasions when it's time to stretch beyond them.I'm Shannon Hayes, and you're listening to Season 7, Episode 3 of The Hearth of Sap Bush Hollow.

In this episode of NeedleXChange, I interview Charlotte Wood, a mixed media artist known for exploring the beauty in ugliness through character-led, emotionally resonant work.Charlotte's recent practice includes a standout 3D textile sculpture, “the man on the chair”, alongside layered narrative pieces where colour, form, and surface stitch carry memory and mood.We talk about her Hand & Lock journey, how she uses characters to hold sadness and introspection without losing joy, and the Leonard Cohen influence behind the work — plus how ideas like object constancy and “finding balance” show up in what she makes.Links:Instagram: woodsembroideryWebsite: woodsembroidery.weebly.comIntro music is Ever So Blue by Hearth via Epidemic Sound.About NeedleXChangeAn artist interview podcast exploring contemporary embroidery and textile art.

Did you ever notice what makes a community feel inviting?  It's not the big box stores.  It's not the chain restaurants.  It's the small businesses that create a true sense of place, that let a traveler know that a given corner of the world is cared-for and cherished.  But how much burden and responsibility can a small business shoulder for a community's well-being before they are unable to exist?I'm Shannon Hayes, and you're listening to Season 7, Episode 2 of The Hearth of Sap Bush Hollow.   Prefer the written version?  Find it here. Special thanks to Tanya Barrow at Unsplash for this week's image!Support the show

In this episode, we sit down and talk through what it actually looks like to have kids present at a home birth. We share honestly about the nerves, the beauty, and all the unknowns that can come with it. From how we can prepare our children ahead of time, to having the right support in place during labor, this conversation really leans into being both intentional and flexible.We talk about how kids often come into birth with curiosity more than fear, and how our role is less about controlling their experience and more about creating a calm, safe space where they can observe, ask questions, and even participate in small ways if they want to. We also talk about letting go of perfect expectations and trusting that everyone will find their place in the moment.At the heart of it, this episode is about inviting our children into something that's deeply normal and deeply sacred. It's about the long-term impact of letting them witness birth, not as something scary or hidden, but as a natural part of family life and care.Connect:Email us to say hi: hello@hearthmotherministries.comPut in a request for future topics and/or submit a question for future Q&A episodes: Fill out the formApply to tell your birth story on the podcast: Holy Wild Birth Podcast : Guest ApplicationHang out with us and other Holy Wild Women in our private community (off Facebook): Rooted in Eden PMABecome a holy, wild birthkeeper with us inside Hearthmother JourneyFrom Lauren:InstagramMidwifery consults: Email  rootedinedenpma@gmail.comFrom Brooke:InstagramTrust God, Trust Birth Workshop - a 5-part high-level roadmap to a confident home birth (pay what you can)Faith-Filled Home Birth Workshop - a free, 3-part video series delivered to your inboxEmbrace Birth Journey - comprehensive and holistic faith-based home birth preparation (courses + private community)Sister Birth: The Podcast - short, beautifully scripted episode to encourage your along the wayIntro and Outra Music Credit -Betty Dear By Blue Dot Sessions is licensed under a Creative Commons License.

"I hate huge. I don't like meetings. If I get sucked into a meeting, I always want to have a list of things that need to be addressed afterwards and a time frame from when you need to check in, to be able to get it done." In this episode, Tim talks with Courtney Hammer (Office Manager, Sutter Home & Hearth) about her transition from practicing chiropractic medicine to running operations at her husband's hearth business. After injuries forced her out of patient care, she discovered that what started as a simple admin role became transforming an entire company's organizational backbone. In this episode, Tim and Courtney cover: Why empowering support staff to make decisions without fear saves thousands—from office inventory alone, she cut $3,000 in waste by tracking Post-its and batteries How the "pirate ship mentality" works in practice—if you don't bring gold in, you can't share it with the crew, making everyone invested in quality and callbacks The art of catching problems before they become expensive—from tracking vehicle registration renewals to ensuring service paperwork tells the real story of what happened on site Don't miss Courtney's insights on why support staff are the "unsung heroes" who pay for themselves through efficiency gains and how stashing Girl Scout cookies can solve morale problems faster than any meeting.

What if every client you've ever landed traced back not to a cold email, but to a conversation you had years ago with someone you genuinely cared about? In this episode, Don Martelli shares how a career that began in the newsrooms of the Boston Globe evolved into a mission-driven PR and strategic communications consultancy built entirely on relationship equity. As CEO of the PR Bunker, Don works exclusively with health and human services organizations, nonprofits, and healthcare and education clients whose work makes a real difference in people's lives. Don spent over 25 years in PR, strategic communications, and marketing across agencies of every size, growing one from $1.5M to $6-8M in revenue before deciding to burn the boat and build something of his own. Six years into running the PR Bunker, he hasn't made a cold call or chased an RFP since, and he has no plans to start. Don shares how three men shaped everything he knows about showing up, slowing down, and paying it forward in business.   [00:03:40] From Reporter to PR Guy: What Don Does and Who He Serves CEO of the PR Bunker, a mission-driven PR and strategic communications agency Former journalist at the Boston Globe covering business and politics Serves nonprofits, healthcare, and human services organizations with one filter: do they have a big heart? Work centers on storytelling across media, marketing, and donor engagement channels [00:05:00] Why He Finally Started His Own Company Spent years growing agencies for other people, including taking one from $1.5M to $6-8M in revenue Tried and failed to buy the agency he helped build Reached a crossroads in his mid-to-late forties and asked: what have I actually built that's mine? Had one honest conversation with his wife, burned the boat, and launched the PR Bunker six years ago [00:06:40] The Impact That Keeps Him Going Partnered with Hearth, a Boston nonprofit fighting elder homelessness Pitched a reporter a story about Lisa, a formerly homeless woman who now works for the organization Turned that one story into a 2.5-week marketing campaign that generated $225,000 in anonymous donations This is the kind of full-circle storytelling that drives everything he does [00:08:00] 100% Word of Mouth: How Don Builds Business No cold calls, no cold emails, no RFPs Built entirely on networking, one-on-one conversations, and what he calls "relationship equity" Every interaction is about asking: how can I help you? Who do you want to meet? Treats his network not as a stack of business cards but as a living, monetizable asset [00:12:00] The First Relationship That Changed Everything: Peter Morrissey Don's first PR boss after leaving the Boston Globe, one of the OGs of Boston PR Taught Don the fundamentals: how to dress, how to read a room, how to pitch a story Helped Don understand what a media pitch was and how to manage his own workflow and accountability [00:13:40] "Efficiency Over Speed": The Sticky Note That Stuck Don made a major mistake at work and Peter walked over, wrote four words on a sticky note, and put it on his screen: efficiency over speed Don didn't fully grasp it in his twenties but carried it with him his entire career Now passes that same note and story on to every person he mentors Has since stuck the same note on the desks of people under him when he sees rushed, sloppy work [00:16:40] His Father: The Original Pay-It-Forward Guy Lost his father at just 56 years old At the wake, the funeral home had to extend hours by 90 minutes because of how long the line was That moment revealed how many lives his father had quietly touched through service, generosity, and community Realized he was cut from the same cloth — his father had the attributes of both Peter and Ed [00:17:40] Batman and Robin: Ed Caso and the Art of the Story Ed Caso was the number two at Peter's agency — the hardened complement to Peter's nurturing style Taught Don the discipline of knowing what is and isn't news Much of Don's crisis communications work today traces directly back to what he learned from Ed Peter and Ed together were like Batman and Robin: different styles, one outcome [00:19:20] Full Circle: Passing the Torch Half an hour before recording, received a call from a former mentee named Evan Evan had spent five years building his network, launched his own successful company, and called Don just to say thank you The lesson Don passed on was the same one Peter gave him: "efficiency over speed" and "your network is your net worth" Also mentoring a 22-year-old named Elijah, who just hit $2M in revenue before graduation by focusing exclusively on relationship-based selling   KEY QUOTES "Efficiency over speed. I sat on that. And I said, "What does it really mean?" — Don Martelli "Your network is not this thing where you collect business cards that sit in your desk drawer. It's really an asset. It's a part of your business." — Don Martelli CONNECT WITH DON MARTELLI

At KBIS 2026, Hearth & Home Technologies reveals how fireplaces are evolving from overlooked amenities into high-value, design-forward features that enhance both homes and builder offerings. We explore the emotional, aesthetic, and technological dimensions of modern fireplaces, from indoor-outdoor integration to bespoke U-shaped configurations. Designers, architects, and builders alike share insights on leveraging fireplaces for resale value, client engagement, and standout home experiences. Mike Swanson – Director, Segment Marketing | Hearth & Home Technologies Fireplaces are no longer just a cozy addition—they are strategic assets in home design, builder differentiation, and lifestyle storytelling. Consumer Demand & Builder Value Fireplaces rank high on buyer wish lists; 77% of homebuyers desire a fireplace. Adding a fireplace can increase home value by 10%, comparable to adding a garage. Fireplaces differentiate homes and engage buyers beyond square footage, integrating lifestyle and personality into living spaces. Design & Technology Integration Indoor and outdoor placement flexibility, including direct vent and electric fireplaces. Heat management technology enabling safe TV placement above fireplaces. Smart home integration, LED flame effects, and Wi-Fi connectivity. Design-forward considerations: feature walls, proportion, architectural integration, and bespoke finishes. Custom & Premium Solutions U-shaped, L-shaped, and multi-sided fireplaces offer signature focal points. Customization options include firebox décor, decorative panels, and the Enlight Collection's fireproof image panels. Aligning fireplace sizing with flat-panel TVs and overall home layout for maximum impact. Builder & Designer Partnerships Education and engagement through Pro Advantage series, continuing education (AIA, IDEC), and builder programs. National distribution network ensures on-time delivery and installation support. Strategies for integrating fireplaces into model homes, luxury projects, and production homes across price points. Collaboration between architects, designers, and builders to maximize aesthetic, functional, and financial value. Innovation & Future Outlook New electric and digital flame technologies (e.g., Illusion Edge, Illusion Heritage). Product refreshes every three years to maintain style-forward, timeless appeal. Continuing to expand placement possibilities and premium customization for design-forward homes. At KBIS 2026 in Orlando, Hearth & Home Technologies showcased how the modern fireplace is evolving from a standard home feature into a high-value, design-forward element that serves builders, designers, and homeowners alike. The conversation revealed that fireplaces are not just a source of warmth—they are strategic tools for engagement, differentiation, and lifestyle storytelling in residential design. Research consistently shows that fireplaces are among the most desired features in new homes, with 77% of buyers listing them as a priority. Beyond emotional appeal, fireplaces offer tangible value: they can add up to 10% to a home's resale value—equivalent to a garage—while remaining relatively accessible, starting at approximately $2,000. For builders, fireplaces help differentiate offerings in competitive markets, enhance staging appeal, and align with buyer desires for personalization and interaction. Modern fireplaces extend well beyond traditional living rooms. Hearth & Home Technologies' portfolio includes indoor, outdoor, and indoor-outdoor configurations, allowing architects and designers to integrate fireplaces into kitchens, bathrooms, ensuites, and shared spaces. Electric fireplaces offer unprecedented placement flexibility, while gas units with direct vent technology allow designers to position flames virtually anywhere without compromising air quality. Heat management innovations also enable TVs to be safely mounted above fireplaces, merging functionality with aesthetic appeal. Customization and premium finishes remain a hallmark of Hearth & Home's strategy. Their U-shaped and L-shaped designs, multi-sided fireplaces, and the Enlight Collection's fireproof image panels demonstrate the growing appetite for bespoke elements that reflect homeowners' individuality. Proportion, scale, and feature integration—such as firebox décor, stone slabs, or quartz surrounds—allow designers to create compelling focal points that harmonize with the broader home environment. Equally important is the company's commitment to builder and designer partnerships. Their Pro Advantage program, continuing education courses through AIA and IDEC, and extensive distribution network ensure that both builders and designers have the knowledge, tools, and on-site support to incorporate fireplaces seamlessly. Builders benefit from reliable supply chains and flexible pricing options, while designers gain access to innovative solutions that align with client expectations. Technology continues to play a central role in Hearth & Home's product evolution. Wi-Fi-enabled fireplaces, LED rotisserie flames, and digital flame technologies like the Illusion Edge allow homeowners to control ambiance remotely and safely. Wood-burning fireplaces adhere to EPA standards, ensuring environmentally conscious solutions for diverse markets. The company also emphasizes timeless design, prioritizing chic, intentional, and adaptable products over fleeting trends. As KBIS 2026 demonstrates, fireplaces are more than decorative features—they are emotional anchors, value drivers, and design catalysts. By combining technology, customization, and education, Hearth & Home Technologies positions the fireplace as an essential component of modern residential architecture, offering builders, designers, and homeowners a tool to elevate both experience and value.

Spring has sprung! And Hearth and Hollow owner Dusti Arab is passionate about helping people grow their own food. She sells what she cultivates  herself in her edible-plant nursery and is also a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) grower. She says planting and growing food isn’t just for spring — it’s an all season activity. Her entire operation is run out of her home in Vancouver, essentially in her backyard. She doesn’t have a brick and mortar retail outlet, focusing instead on selling at the Vancouver Farmer’s Market on Saturdays and growing the edible-plant CSA. Arab also teaches workshops and maintains a food access resource guide for Clark County. She joins us to share more about her edible plant work and her hunger relief efforts.
