Podcasts about Homebase

In this episode of the Modern Direct Seller Podcast, we're making the case for why every direct seller needs a home base of their own, and handing the mic to the people already proving it works. You'll hear from seven women from our community across seven different companies who traded borrowed land and replicated sites for websites they actually own. From sticker parties and recipe libraries to lead-capturing landing pages, team-building funnels, sold-out retreats, and multi-stream brands, each one shares real numbers and real results. It's a look at what becomes possible when you stop building on rented ground and start building somewhere that's truly yours.Want to peek at what these sellers have built? You can find Ashley Wasco at her sticker party page, Julie Gizzi at her recipe hub, Stephanie Pressley over at StephaniePressley.com, Amary Doremus at her permanent jewelry site (and be sure to check out her newly launched podcast), Jen Bach at Craft What Matters, Natasha Berkel at Natasha's Healthy Living, and Evelyn Abernathy at Purple Essence by Evelyn. Ready to build a home base of your own?

This week, Coach Blu Robinson sits down with Jim Logan for a powerful Attitude Athlete conversation about transformation through adversity. Jim's journey, from hearing the words "you have cancer" to crossing the finish line as an Ironman, is a testament to what can happen when faith, perseverance, and purpose become stronger than fear. Listen as Jim shares the physical, emotional, and spiritual reality of confronting a cancer diagnosis. Rather than allowing that moment to define the limits of his life, he began rebuilding it, one decision, one workout, one act of faith, and one day at a time. His path to becoming an Ironman was never simply about endurance sports. Training became a vehicle for healing, discipline, gratitude, and rediscovering what his life could mean after survival. The miles represented more than fitness; they reflected a commitment to keep showing up, even when the road was difficult.

In this episode, Coach Blu and Wendell go deeper than “being honest” as a concept, they unpack what honesty looks like inside real relationships when emotions are high, trust has been strained, and you don't always know the “right” thing to say. They connect recovery to connection: when someone is rebuilding stability, the way they communicate becomes part of their healing, not an extra task on top of everything else.Join Coach Blu and Team Addict II Athlete and begin your recovery with a tram behind you!

Coach Blu is back with a new conversation on Addict to Athlete featuring Brad Waldon and his new business venture partner, Angela. In this episode, they break down what recovery actually looks like when life doesn't slow down: staying steady, making clean choices, and building momentum one day at a time. Brad and Angela join Coach Blu to explore the overlap between recovery, real world responsibility, and progression especially when you're stepping into something new that scares you. They talk about entrepreneurship, how to collaborate without losing yourself, and how to keep your standards high when motivation is low. You'll also hear practical perspectives on food and recovery using nutrition, structure, and simple decisions to support the body while the mind catches up. This episode isn't about pretending addiction never happened. It's about leaving it behind by choosing the next clean action—then repeating it until it becomes your identity. You'll walk away with a valuable resource for the "in-between" moments: the season where you're not fully healed yet, but you're done going backward. What You'll Take Away - A recovery mindset that turns fear into fuel for progression   - How to build consistency when life feels unpredictable   - Practical insights on food and structure as part of staying on track   - Lessons on entrepreneurship from Brad, and partnership + momentum from Angela   - A "valuable resource" approach for the gap between where you are and where you want to be   Call to Action Show up for yourself today. Choose one clean action, support your body with food that works for you, and keep moving toward the version of you that scares you in the best way.

Coach Blu and Coach Wendell break down what “showing up” really means when you don't feel like it, when you're tired, and when the task is inconvenient but necessary. In this episode of Agents of Recovery, you'll learn how showing up builds emotional well-being through action rather than motivation.Showing up isn't about pretending you're fine. It's about choosing your next clean action while your feelings are loud, your energy is low, and the day didn't go according to plan. Coach Blu and Coach Wendell explore how to show up for yourself, for the people who depend on you, and for the stakeholders in your life the communities, routines, responsibilities, and support systems that grow stronger when you stay present.You'll hear practical ways to take your place even when you're tired, and how courage shows up as service: serving out of your inconvenience, not your exhaustion. If recovery is training, this episode is the reminder that your emotional well-being can improve simply by showing up consistently, deliberately, and with accountability.Join Coach Blu and Team Addict II Athlete and begin your recovery with a tram behind you!

From Boston Bob's earliest steps through addiction and working in corrections, they trace how he rebuilt his life through consistency, community, and a commitment to serving others, not as a slogan, but as a daily practice.   Together, Coach Blu and Boston Bob explore how respect becomes a foundation for real change, how shared experiences create connection rather than isolation, and how recovery can expand into meaningful relationships that last.

In this episode of Agents of Recovery, Coach Blu and Coach Wendell break down the difference between being “stuck” and being in motion especially when your emotions are loud, and your plans fall apart. They discuss how control isn't about controlling other people or outcomes; it's about choosing the next clean action, even when you don't feel ready.They also talk about forgiveness as a skill, not a slogan—how to forgive in a way that supports boundaries and protects your future. Forgiveness, in their framework, helps you stop dragging the past into every new decision, so you can redirect energy toward rebuilding routines, relationships, and identity.From there, the coaches shift into growth: how recovery becomes real when you treat setbacks as training—data, not disaster. Listeners learn how to spot mindset traps, reframe quickly, and return to fundamentals: sleep, structure, honesty, and accountability.Finally, Coach Blu and Coach Wendell emphasize that you can't do recovery solo. They discuss surrounding yourself with a supportive team—people who understand your goals, reinforce healthy choices, and don't make your healing feel like a debate. The episode closes with practical takeaways so listeners can become active participants in their own recovery plan, not passive passengers.Join Coach Blu and Team Addict II Athlete and begin your recovery with a tram behind you!

The men’s soccer team from Jordan lost to Algeria  2-1 to on Monday, meaning they won’t go on to the next round of the World Cup. The team has been using the University of Portland’s Merlo Field as its home base for practice and training sessions between games.    UP men’s soccer head coach Nick Carlin-Voigt says the school boasts one of the best all-grass soccer fields in the Northwest, if not the country, and that it was a “no-brainer” when FIFA contacted him several years ago to see if the university would be interested in hosting a 2026 World Cup national team. It’s also given him the chance to attend Team USA’s matches, including its victory over Australia last Friday in Seattle, and relive his boyhood memories of cheering on the men’s team from the stands 32 years ago – the last time a men’s World Cup game was held on U.S. soil.     Carlin-Voigt joins us to share those memories and the new ones he’s making at the World Cup.  

They don't call it a crisis when it happens behind a gas station until it's somebody's kid, somebody's brother, somebody's "one bad day." This episode goes straight at the reality of heroin: how fast it hooks, how hard it destroys, and why "it's just once" is a trap.

Für viele Erwachsene ist sie eine akustische Qual: Kindermusik – repetitive Texte, nervige Melodien, immer dasselbe Gedüdel. Ein Trio aus Hamburg beweist seit 15 Jahren, dass es auch anders geht: Deine Freunde sind die erfolgreichste Band für Kinder im deutschsprachigen Raum, mit deren Songs auch Erwachsene Spaß haben. Ihre Musik funktioniert generationenübergreifend. Deine Freunde füllen große Hallen und spielen ausverkaufte Konzerte wie zuletzt open air in der Wiener Arena. Nina Hochrainer hat hinter das Phänomen geblickt und mit Rapper und Texter Florian Sump gesprochen: Was macht ihren Erfolg aus, warum machen sie eigentlich keine Erwachsenenmusik und kann es auch bei Kinderkonzerten einen Moshpit geben?Sendungshinweis: FM4, Homebase, 16.06.2026, 20 Uhr

Coach Blu Robinson takes the mic for a can't-look-away episode of Addict to Athlete with a story that starts as a dream and turns into a full-contact comedy of endurance. In "Party in the Back," Blu joins his co-host, Josh Hansen, to recount his 2023 experience running the Hard Rock Half in Salt Lake City, Utah, a race that served up humorous highs, tragic detours, and the kind of pain you only laugh about after you survive it. From the moment the plan met the course reality, Blu and Josh break down what it felt like to push through when everything hurts, when motivation dips, and when your mind has to work harder than your legs. Expect real talk, laugh-out-loud moments, and the behind-the-scenes perspective of what it means to show up anyway, especially when the day doesn't go according to script.

In this episode of the Addict II Athlete Podcast Coach Blu talks to Cliff McDonald. Cliff's story is a recovery "origin + engine" narrative: he connects the early, hard-won decision to get sober with the ongoing, daily work that keeps him there. The episode frames recovery not as a finish line, but as a lifestyle built through connection, practical support systems, and meaningful contribution to other people. Cliff describes recovery as something he had to build, not something that simply "happened" after a final decision. He shares the personal turning points that brought him from isolation and chaos to stability, then he broadens the focus to what sustained progress actually requires.

This week we're discussing: Tips for Creating a Peaceful Home Base Most solo parents are not struggling to love their kids well. They are struggling to create the kind of home where that love actually lands. Where kids feel safe, settled, and like they can exhale when they walk through the door. That gap between intention and reality is something almost every solo parent feels but rarely talks about out loud. A peaceful home is not something you either have or you don't. It is something you build, through the way you communicate, the way you listen, and the way you show up on the days when everything feels like too much. And it matters more than most of us realize, because when home feels unpredictable, kids do not just feel unsettled. They start filling the silence with their own story, and that story almost always ends with the same conclusion: something is wrong with me. Robert Beeson, Founder and CEO of Solo Parent, sits down with Elizabeth Cole, a single parent, and Amber Fuller, a counselor with a Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy and a single parent herself, to talk practically about what it takes to build a peaceful home base. Not a perfect one. A consistent one. Key Insights from This Episode: What you say, and how you say it, changes everything. Kids fill silence with their own story, and that story almost always puts the blame on themselves. Listening well is more powerful than having the right answer. Empathy before action helps you understand what your child actually needs, not just what the situation appears to need. A peaceful home is a slow build, not a single decision. Consistency over time is what creates safety, and safety is what peace is made of.

Most podcasters assume discovery is the hard part, but the PMS cast and crew get into what really happens after someone clicks on your show. We talk through that moment when a listener is deciding where to start, and why telling people to “Check Out Your Podcast” without direction usually leads to them leaving instead. From trailers and websites to hand-picked episodes and social clips, this conversation keeps circling one idea you've probably felt before, you know the one where you open a show and have no clue what to play.

This week, Coach Blu speaks to Richard Baum, a former acting drug czar and Georgetown professor, draws on decades of experience in drug policy to offer a thoughtful look at the opioid crisis and broader addiction challenges. In this episode, he discusses how addiction is not just a personal issue, but a public health problem that affects families, communities, and government systems. He explains that effective responses require more than punishment or short-term fixes. Instead, they need a balanced approach that includes prevention, treatment, recovery support, and smart policy. Baum highlights the importance of evidence-based strategies, such as expanding access to treatment, supporting harm reduction efforts, and making sure people struggling with addiction can get help without unnecessary barriers. He also emphasizes that lasting progress depends on cooperation between communities, healthcare providers, and government leaders. By working together, they can create systems that reduce overdose deaths, improve recovery outcomes, and address the root causes of substance use disorders.
