Today I'm joined by Cate Havstad-Casad, hat maker, leather goods founder, regenerative rancher, and all-around creative force. Cate's story weaves together multiple passions into a life and business that's as intentional as it is inspiring. From building custom western hats in a horse barn wash stall, to launching Range Revolution, a leather goods brand sourcing hides from regenerative ranches, Cate shares how she's tackling waste in the meat industry, strengthening supply chains, and creating heirloom-quality products that honor both the land and the people who steward it. We talk about the realities of starting a mission-driven brand, the challenges (and wins) of building a regenerative supply chain from scratch, and how she balances entrepreneurship with motherhood. Kate also shares how slowing down, building the right team, and staying rooted in purpose have shaped her vision for the future of her multiple businesses.  If you've ever dreamed of blending creativity, agriculture, and impact into your own work, or you simply love a good story about building something beautiful from the ground up, this episode will leave you both inspired and motivated to take your own next step. This episode is packed with actionable advice you can use right now to improve communication at work and beyond. Resources & Links: Small is Beautiful: Economics as if People Mattered by E.F.

With a background in international affairs and a passion for heritage craftsmanship, Lindsey brings a thoughtful, globally informed perspective to the world of interiors, one that honors tradition while pushing gently toward the future.We discuss the power of textiles in storytelling, the legacy of the pieces we choose to live with, and how sustainable design can still feel luxurious and livable.

Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: Hidden Heirlooms: A Sibling Quest Under Buda Castle's Glow Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2025-07-23-22-34-02-hu Story Transcript:Hu: A nap lemenő sugarai aranyszínű fénybe borították a Buda vár romjait.En: The setting sun's rays bathed the ruins of Buda Castle in golden light.Hu: Réka és Bence egy szűk ösvényen sétáltak fel a dombon, ahol a régi erődítmények emlékei halkan suttogtak az elmúlt korokról.En: Réka and Bence walked up a narrow path on the hill where the old fortifications whispered softly of past ages.Hu: Bence izgatott volt. A kezében egy régi térkép, amit dédapjától örökölt.En: Bence was excited, holding an old map inherited from his great-grandfather.Hu: Réka kissé vonakodva követte, kétkedve hallgatta bátyja szenvedélyét a családi történelem iránt.En: Réka followed a bit hesitantly, listening skeptically to her brother's passion for family history.Hu: "Biztos vagy benne, hogy itt van elrejtve?" kérdezte Réka, leporolva egy pókhálót az arcáról.En: "Are you sure it's hidden here?" asked Réka, brushing a cobweb from her face.Hu: "Biztos vagyok" – válaszolta Bence, tekintetét a térképre szegezve.En: "I'm sure," replied Bence, his eyes fixed on the map.Hu: "Ez a hely fontos volt a családunknak.En: "This place was important to our family.Hu: Nagyapánk mesélte, hogy a múltban itt rejtegették a legnagyobb kincseket."En: Our grandfather used to say that the greatest treasures were hidden here in the past."Hu: Ahogy közelebb értek a főkapuhoz, látták, hogy a romok egy része felújítás alatt áll. A belépés a munkaterületekre tilos volt.En: As they approached the main gate, they saw that some parts of the ruins were under renovation, and access to the work sites was forbidden.Hu: Bence azonban nem hagyta, hogy ez megállítsa őket.En: However, Bence wasn't about to let that stop them.Hu: "Gyere, menjünk erre," mondta halkan, egy rejtett ösvény felé bökve a kezével.En: "Come, let's go this way," he said quietly, pointing toward a hidden path.Hu: "Bence, ha elkapnak minket!" súgta Réka összehúzott szemöldökkel.En: "Bence, what if they catch us?" whispered Réka, her brows furrowed.Hu: "Megér egy próbát.En: "It's worth a try.Hu: Egy titkos szoba van a térkép szerint, talán ott találjuk meg, amit keresünk."En: According to the map, there's a secret room; maybe that's where we'll find what we're looking for."Hu: Réka felsóhajtott, de követte Bencét.En: Réka sighed but followed Bence.Hu: A szűk járatokban haladva, csak a saját lépteik halk zaja kísérte őket.En: As they moved through the narrow passages, only the soft sound of their footsteps accompanied them.Hu: Végül egy sötét boltívhez értek.En: Finally, they arrived at a dark archway.Hu: Bence zseblámpát rántott elő, és fényével bevilágította a teret.En: Bence pulled out a flashlight and illuminated the space with its beam.Hu: A falakon régi jelek voltak bevésve.En: Old symbols were engraved on the walls.Hu: Réka közelebb lépett, és megérintette az egyiket.En: Réka stepped closer and touched one.Hu: "Ez lehet a családunk címere?" csodálkozott.En: "Could this be our family's crest?" she wondered.Hu: Bence bólintott, majd a sarokban egy föld alatti nyílásra mutatott.En: Bence nodded, then pointed to an underground opening in the corner.Hu: A kanál szélén egy régi, poros doboz pihent.En: At the edge of the opening rested an old, dusty box.Hu: Bence szinte remegő kézzel emelte fel a fedelet.En: With almost trembling hands, Bence lifted the lid.Hu: Odabent egy apró, ékes tárgy pihent.En: Inside lay a small, ornate object.Hu: Ekkor meghallották a közelgő léptek zaját.En: Just then, they heard the sound of approaching footsteps.Hu: Réka halkan felkiáltott, és azonnal húzni kezdte Bencét a kijárat felé.En: Réka gasped softly and immediately began pulling Bence toward the exit.Hu: "Gyorsan, menjünk!"En: "Quickly, let's go!"Hu: Bence gyorsan visszatette a dobozt, és a tárgyat gyengéden a zsebébe süllyesztette. A testvérek lábaik alá vették a dohos, szűk mennyezet alatti folyosót.En: Bence quickly replaced the box, gently slipped the object into his pocket, and the siblings hurried down the musty hallway with its low ceiling.Hu: Ahogy kiértek a friss levegőre, mindketten megkönnyebbült sóhajt nyomtak el.En: As they emerged into the fresh air, they both stifled a sigh of relief.Hu: "Bence, ez őrült volt," fújta ki Réka a levegőt, miközben visszaindultak a domb aljáról.En: "Bence, that was crazy," Réka exhaled as they started back down the hill.Hu: "Tudom, de megérte.En: "I know, but it was worth it.Hu: Nézd!" – mondta Bence, elővéve a zsebéből az apró tárgyat.En: Look!" said Bence, taking the small object from his pocket.Hu: Egy különleges alakú medál volt, rajta az ősi jelekkel.En: It was a uniquely shaped pendant with ancient symbols on it.Hu: Réka elmosolyodott.En: Réka smiled.Hu: "Lehet, hogy tévedtem.En: "I might have been wrong.Hu: Talán tényleg van valami ebben a családi hagyományban."En: Maybe there really is something to this family tradition."Hu: Bence büszkén nézett húgára.En: Bence looked at his sister proudly.Hu: "Ezt együtt fogjuk kibogozni."En: "We'll unravel this together."Hu: A nap már lement, mire visszaértek, de a felfedezés fénye még mindig ott csillogott a szemükben.En: The sun had already set by the time they returned, but the light of discovery still sparkled in their eyes.Hu: Az új nyom új reményeket ébresztett, és bár a keresésük még messze nem ért véget, testvéri kötelékük erősebbé vált.En: The new clue sparked new hopes, and even though their quest was far from over, their sibling bond had grown stronger.Hu: Aznap este mindketten úgy érezhették, megtaláltak valamit, ami összeköti őket a múlttal és egymással.En: That night, they both felt they had found something that connected them to the past and to each other.

Join me in the foothills of the Dolomites for a warm, funny, and surprisingly philosophical conversation with Mauricio Arias — Graphistudio's strategist, storyteller, and, as I've dubbed him, their “Product Philosopher.” We dig deep into why printed work still matters in a digital world, how to make your images sing in print (and what that print will brutally reveal), and what photographers need to believe if they want clients to invest in heirlooms, not hard drives. There's laughter, there's wine (not during the recording, I promise), and there's a lot of heart. This one's for anyone who's ever asked: does my work really need to exist on paper? (Spoiler: yes. Yes it does.) Links: Graphistudio: graphistudio.com Mauricio Arias: mauricioarias.art   What Graphistudio Can Teach Us About Craft, Confidence, And Creating Heirlooms Featuring Mauricio Arias – from Episode 165 of the Mastering Portrait Photography Podcast This summer, I found myself at the foot of the Dolomites, tucked inside a sun-drenched meeting room at Graphistudio HQ, chatting with the wonderfully philosophical Mauricio Arias. He's part strategist, part designer, part storyteller—now officially dubbed (by me) the Product Philosopher of Graphistudio. We've used Graphistudio products for over 15 years. Our clients love their albums and wall art. We love their consistency, their craftsmanship, and their beautifully obsessive attention to detail. So when Mauricio and I sat down for a conversation, I had one question in mind: Why does print still matter in a digital world? Mauricio's answer was simple and heartfelt: because photographs are meant to be held. He spoke about growing up with albums on the coffee table and family portraits on the wall—how physical images root our memories in something real. But what stuck with me most was this: "Printing reveals both the beauty and the flaws." A great print will elevate your best work, but it also exposes any cracks in your post-production. It's humbling. And it's powerful motivation to keep improving. We talked about calibration (yes, you need it), about photography as an emotional craft, and about the importance of believing in what you offer. Because if you don't believe your work belongs in an album or on a wall, how will your clients ever believe it? We also touched on the future—on AI, on trust, and on the rising value of human, handmade, tangible things. Heirloom prints are becoming more important, not less.

Becoming a new mother sparked a desire to create something meaningful - jewellery that captures not just beauty, but deeply personal memories. Using materials like breast milk, umbilical cords, and ashes alongside gold, platinum, and gemstones, Love Juno Gems offers custom pieces that serve as modern heirlooms. It’s about preserving identity and legacy in a way that feels both intimate and timeless. On The Right Business, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Min Qi Yeo, Founder of Love Juno Gems, to find out how she’s building a modern heirloom jewellery brand with meaning.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jeremy Sasson joins Jake Wurzak to unpack his obsessive, guest-first approach to hospitality and share how he's built a thriving portfolio of restaurants without external investors or debt. The conversation traces Jeremy's evolution from a post-college startup grind to crafting some of Detroit's most beloved dining experiences. He explains how design, service, and team alignment all flow from a single emotional driver: how a guest feels at every touchpoint. Jeremy also reveals how he builds restaurants through the lens of fashion, explains the overlooked costs of doing hospitality well, and offers rare insight into the operational decisions that separate great concepts from lasting brands. We discuss: Why every element of a restaurant must begin with how it makes guests feel The core reasons he turned down the family real estate business to pursue hospitality What he learned building his first restaurant with no industry experience Why he avoids celebrity chefs and prioritizes team members who “pick him” The importance of eliminating weak cultural fits—even when it hurts in the short term This episode is a masterclass for anyone building hospitality experiences with purpose and longevity in mind.

Primarily a flameworker, Kari Russell-Pool approaches her work in a painterly fashion. She is interested in the transformation of an object into an heirloom. Made from hand-pulled glass rods, her Safety Mom Series, for example, was inspired by post-September 11 ideas of keeping a family safe. That series, in incongruously cheerful colors, is dominated by images of guns and keys, and the delicate glasswork is patterned to look like traditional needlework, which kept women's hands busy in the 18th and 19th centuries. For her Trophy Series, Russell-Pool flameworked a strikingly delicate and extremely fragile set of trophies, inspired by an NPR interview with a trophy maker, who stated that frequently people commission trophies for themselves.  In complex and decorative glass aviaries, Russell-Pool often showcases her husband and collaborative partner Marc Petrovic's glass birds, a combination that is at once technically superlative and aesthetically enchanting. Her most recent collaborative series with Petrovic – Our Distilled Life Series – examines the individual amidst the complexity of societal and global challenges and distillates them into a series of vignettes within bottles.  Russell-Pool states: “I communicate using objects as metaphors. From quilts and teapots, to sailors' valentines and cages, I am interested in the stories objects tell and how we elevate them into heirlooms. Filled with personal content and commentary about society, the hard work of relationships, and my experience as a mom, my work tells many stories. The work is autobiographical, and although objects are my vehicle, I think of them as self portraits as each series reflects the timely concerns of my life.” Russell-Pool graduated from the Cleveland Institute of Art in 1990. She has taught and exhibited all over the world, and her work has been published in Glass Magazine and American Craft Magazine. Her public collections include the American Glass Museum, the Baltimore Museum of Art, the Cincinnati Art Museum, the Corning Museum of Glass, the Niijima Museum of Glass (Tokyo), the Racine Art Museum, the Seattle Art Museum, the Smithsonian Museum of American Art (DC), the Tacoma Museum of Glass, the Tucson Museum of Art, and the Peabody Essex Museum. Russell-Pool was awarded the Ohio Arts Council Individual Excellence Award in 2017 and 2019. Pulling her own glass rods or canes using soft glass or traditional blowing glass, Russell-Pool can more easily incorporate blown work by Petrovic into her pieces. They gather clear glass from their melting furnace and color it by rolling the hot clear glass through powdered colored glass, and then encasing the color in another thin layer of clear. These gathers of glass are pulled into 40′ lengths while still hot, and then cut down into 1.5′ lengths. Coloring her glass this way allows Russell-Pool to both mix colors and control their densities. She uses these colored glass canes in a torch flame to sculpt petals, leaves, and small components, which she further colors using more glass powders. Having some color in the base canes allows the artist to work much as a watercolorist would, using washes to achieve subtle or dramatic color changes. Each piece begins with a design drawn out on a piece of ¼-inch clear plate glass. Russell-Pool then bends all her glass canes exactly to that pattern using a torch with a warm flame. “By layering the color and manipulating the density, our hope is the flow between the blown and flameworked glass appears effortless. In glass there is often a right way to do things. I am more a proponent of the cowboy way. The cowboy way invites invention and serves the master of the final result rather than proper technique. I am proud to be called a craftsman, because craftsmanship underlies all I do, even if I am occasionally caught being an artist.” Russell-Pool and Petrovic have collaborative work on view now as part of the Jonathan Adler Show at the Museum of Art and Design in New York City featuring Adler's ceramic work and pieces curated from the permanent collection. The show will run through April 2026. Rusell-Pool's work is also being exhibited in On Fire Part II: Surveying Women in Glass in the Late-Twentieth Century now through January 24, 2026 at Racine Art Museum, Racine, WI. An expanded version of the 2022 show offers a deeper dive into this vital period in contemporary craft by outlining the concerns of artists who explore the sculptural, visual, metaphorical, and creative potential of glass. Seen through the eyes of women, it reflects developments with the medium as an art material two and three decades after Studio Glass concepts were being implemented into university programs and contemporary practices.

Kish shares how farms are eliminating pests and diseases through optimized plant nutrition and improved photosynthesis. The conversation dives into the connection between soil biology, profitability, and nutrient density. Kish also addresses skepticism around ag “products” and offers a humble, science-based approach to farm improvement. The episode wraps with news of a research partnership between AEA and the Market Gardener Institute to adapt these tools for small-scale growers.SponsorsTessier: Use promo code MGI10 for 10% off and free shipping on your first purchase for the Eastern North American regions Farmhand: CSA farmers can set up a complimentary 1:1 strategy session with founder Ari at Timestamps[8:37] The hopeful message of regenerative agriculture[12:17] Understanding the economic “J curve” in farming transitions[19:08] What Advancing Eco Agriculture (AEA) actually does for farmers[24:23] Fighting orchard disease with SAP analysis[27:17] Why SAP analysis is like a blood test for plants[31:04] The power of foliar sprays for nutrient uptake[43:27] Increasing photosynthesis for crop resilience and yield[48:23] Nutrient corrections that boost photosynthesis[52:01] The role of seed inoculants and microbial colonization[1:04:16] Insect pressure and the myth of “holes mean healthy”[1:06:00] How protein synthesis deters aphids[1:13:47] Giving farmers real decision-making power through data[1:21:04] Collaboration between AEA and the Market Gardener Institute[1:28:58] Making nutrient density measurable and marketable[1:33:59] “There's no such thing as cheap food” – nutrient density and health[1:36:20] The most common global farming issue Kish observesLinks/ResourcesMarket Gardener Institute:  https://themarketgardener.com/ Masterclass:  https://themarketgardener.com/courses/the-market-gardener-masterclass/ Newsletter:  https://themarketgardener.com/newsletterBlog:  https://themarketgardener.com/blog Books: https://themarketgardener.com/booksGrowers & Co: https://growers.co/Heirloom: https://heirloom.ag/The Old Mill: https://www.espaceoldmill.com/en/Follow UsWebsite: http://themarketgardener.com Facebook: http://facebook.com/marketgardenerinstitute Instagram: http://instagram.com/themarketgardeners Guest Social Media LinksAdvancing Eco Agriculture:Website: https://advancingecoag.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/advancingecoag/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/advancingecoag/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRApdrU3BA0Pzo6MNWTD2jg Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/advancingecoag Podcast: https://regenerativeagriculturepodcast.com/ JM:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jeanmartinfortierFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/jeanmartinfortier

An heirloom is a cherished possession passed down through generations, often holding sentimental value rather than monetary worth. Its significance lies in the memories it evokes and the meaning attributed to it by the recipient. In today's Mother's Day message, Sis. Sarah uses a red sweater and a quilt, both steeped in history, to illustrate the enduring power of prayers from generations past.

Sometimes you just meet an author that instantly you understand why they wrote the book that they wrote. This was the case for me when I met Jessie Rosen for our podcast- bright, sparkly, effervescent so naturally her book would be about the stars and the universe aligning. Her energy was perfection. I loved chatting with her about her latest novel, All the Signs (FYI I also adored her debut, The Heirloom). This book has travel, romance, a little mystery and A LOT of astrology. We chatted signs, stars, writing, Ace of Base and so much more. BONUS- if you are in the Boston area you can come chat with Jessie and I at Lovestruck Books on May 28th!!! Details in bio!

Mexico has been purchasing about $3 billion of corn annually from farmers in the USA, the vast majority of that corn having been grown from genetically modified seeds. The Mexican government announced in 2020 that it would, in 2025, ban that GMO corn from the country, which was found to be in violation of the USMCA agreement of 2018. So now, the Mexican government has amended their constitution to identify native corn as an "element of national identity," which will ban GMO corn from being planted in the country – and "[a]ny other use of genetically modified corn must be evaluated ... to be free of threats to the biosecurity, health and biocultural heritage of Mexico and its population." What exactly does this all mean, for farmers in Mexico, for the environment in the Americas, and for the price of tacos?

Cursed Objects: Why Haunted Dolls and Jewelry Attract Dark Energy More Than Anything Else” Have you ever inherited an old ring and suddenly felt like your luck vanished overnight? Or maybe you brought home an antique doll that now seems to move when no one's looking…? You're not alone. In this week's episode of Psychic Christine Wallace Mystical Charms and Things, we're diving into the chilling topic of cursed objects and haunted items, with a special focus on possessed jewelry and dolls—the two objects that most often seem to attract negative spiritual energy. Why Do Certain Objects Hold Dark Energy? Throughout history, dolls and jewelry have been the center of supernatural disturbances, spiritual attachments, and paranormal hauntings. These objects—often deeply personal or used in rituals—act like energy sponges, absorbing trauma, grief, jealousy, or even dark intentions from their original owners or past events. While not every old item is cursed, spiritually charged objects like: • Heirloom rings • Antique brooches • Handmade dolls • Family relics …can carry lingering vibrations, sometimes resulting in sleepless nights, bad luck, emotional turmoil, or worse. If you've experienced: • A sudden shift in energy after acquiring an object • Strange occurrences in your home • Persistent bad luck or health issues with no clear cause • Unexplained emotions or nightmares… You may be dealing with a spiritually active or cursed item. ⸻ Need Help with Negative Energy or Paranormal Activity?

In the evolving landscape of global spirits, one visionary stands at the forefront of a quiet revolution. Tomas Nava, owner and distiller at Gran Tunal Destilería, is redefining what Mexican whiskey can be through his passionate commitment to heritage and innovation. Nava's journey began behind the bar, where he pioneered his town's first mezcal establishment. This immersion in Mexico's traditional spirits sparked a curiosity that would later flourish into full-scale production. After exploring gin-making with a distinctive Prickly Pear base, Nava found his true calling in whiskey—but with a uniquely Mexican identity. "The soul of whiskey is in its grain," Nava often says, and this philosophy drives Gran Tunal's most ambitious project. While most distillers worldwide rely on commercial corn varieties, Nava has turned to Mexico's rich agricultural heritage, sourcing indigenous heirloom corn varieties that pre-date European contact. These ancient grains—each with distinct flavor profiles, colors, and cultural significance—provide the foundation for whiskeys unlike any other in the world. The result is not merely a Mexican interpretation of Scottish or American traditions, but something genuinely new: expressions that capture Mexico's terroir and agricultural legacy in every sip. The production process honors both whiskey-making traditions and Mexican cultural practices. By combining careful distillation with these exceptional base ingredients, Gran Tunal creates spirits that speak eloquently of place and history. Industry experts have taken notice. As Mexican whiskey emerges as a category in its own right, Nava's creations stand as benchmarks of quality and innovation, earning recognition in international competitions and among discerning connoisseurs. For Tomas Nava, each bottle represents more than just a fine spirit—it's a preservation of agricultural biodiversity, a celebration of Mexican heritage, and a bold step forward in the global spirits conversation.

In this week's episode of the Flavors of Northwest Arkansas, we're in Rogers at Heirloom at the 1907 talking with Co-owner and Chef Jason Paul, but before we get to him?!?! (*FOOD NEWS!!*) We are anniversary-heavy this week! Happy 75 years to Maxine's in Fayetteville! Happy 54 years to Patrick's Hamburgers in Springdale! Happy 29 years to Susan's Restaurant in Springdale! Happy 8th to the Odd Soul, while enjoying a beard trim with Jeffro! Update on Apt. 7 in Fayetteville.

Heirloom at the 1907 is a reservation-only tasting menu restaurant in the Onyx building in downtown Rogers. We talked to co-owner and Executive Chef Jason Paul, who along with his partner Danielle, have built something unique to our area. If you've not been, you're just not quick enough. Let's just say this- if Taylor Swift were playing the AMP, you might have an easier time getting a ticket. BUT! Chef Jason has a tip for you on that front. They don't seat many, and if you get a reservation, the seat is yours for the night. Though it's a tasting menu, it has many courses- sometimes up to 10! Chef Jason is from Arizona, and got his first kitchen experience in a restaurant when he was 14, and it was all because of a book signing. It's a great story... The kitchen where he worked at that age? It just so happened to be in the nicest restaurant in the Phoenix area... He'll explain. And what's it like to work in a Vegas kitchen under the age of 21? Jason's got the deets. Finally, how did he end up in Northwest Arkansas? The way MANY people do. We talk to Chef Jason Paul from Heirloom at the 1907, next here on the Flavors of Northwest Arkansas!

We've all dragged home a questionable knick-knack from our favorite antique store or estate sale—maybe a dusty picture frame or a mirror that makes your reflection look…off. But what if it's not just off – what if it's possessed? In this episode, one woman's love of vintage treasures collides with a malevolent spirit that turns her life into a living game of “spine-tingling hide-and-seek.” Chronic pain and silent terror join forces to create the perfect dinner bell for something unearthly—until her dearly departed great-grandma steps in with a much-needed angelic smackdown.
