How to Create a Cozy Man Cave: Ralph Lauren Style, Color Drenching & a Decorating Plan Creating a cozy man cave doesn't mean filling a room with dark furniture and calling it done. In this behind-the-scenes decorating session with Dani (yes, another Dani), we're creating a warm, masculine space inspired by Ralph Lauren style, complete with leather, plaid, flannel, basketball installation art, framed golf clubs and deer heads. And yes, we're color drenching the room, too. The best part? Dani wasn't nervous about the bold plan at all. When I asked if she was scared about color drenching, her answer was simple: "No... I LOVE that I have a plan." And honestly, that's what this episode is really about. In This Episode How we're creating a cozy, masculine man cave without making it feel cold or overly themed Using Ralph Lauren-inspired style as a jumping-off point for the room How leather, plaid, flannel and wood create warmth and coziness Incorporating personal interests and family heirlooms without making it feel like a sports bar Why color drenching can actually make a room feel more cohesive How having a decorating plan gives you the confidence to make bolder choices The difference between collecting individual pieces you love and creating a room where everything works together A behind-the-scenes look at how I coach a client through real decorating decisions Creating a Masculine Room That Still Feels Cozy A masculine room doesn't have to mean gray walls, a brown leather sofa and a giant television. For this room, we're leaning into the things that naturally create a masculine feeling: rich leather, traditional patterns, warm wood, darker colors, vintage-inspired details and a little bit of that classic Ralph Lauren aesthetic. But the goal isn't to copy a Ralph Lauren room. It's to take the elements we love about that style and translate them into a room that works for this particular home and the people who live there. That's an important distinction when you're decorating your own home, too. Inspiration is a starting point. It's not the plan. Yes, We're Color Drenching the Man Cave Color drenching can sound like a pretty big decorating commitment. Instead of choosing one color for the walls and then adding a bunch of different colors and finishes around the room, color drenching brings the same or closely related color across multiple surfaces, creating a more enveloping, cohesive feeling. And in a cozy man cave? It can be really good. Rather than being afraid of a darker color, we're using it intentionally to help create the mood of the room. Which brings us back to my favorite moment from this coaching call. I asked my client if she was nervous about the idea of color drenching. She wasn't. She said she loved having a plan. That is exactly what I want for you, too. Not a house full of perfectly coordinated furniture. Not a Pinterest board you never actually act on. A plan that helps you make the next decision without second-guessing yourself. The Bigger Decorating Lesson You don't need to be fearless to make bold decorating choices. You need to understand why you're making them. When you know the feeling you're trying to create, the style you're working within and the plan for how the pieces will work together, decisions that once felt scary become much easier. And sometimes the boldest choice in the room is also the one that makes everything else make sense. Want help creating a plan for your own home? If you keep buying things you love but can't quite figure out how to make them work together, you're not alone. That's the exact kind of decorating problem I love helping women solve with a  Cozy Home Reset   // Links mentioned in show: // ✨✨ Start your Cozy Home Reset: https://www.figandfarmathome.com/cozyhomereset  Become a Design Bestie by joining the newsletter: https://bit.ly/designbestie Email: https://figandfarmathome.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/figandfarm/ FREE Facebook Community: https://www.bit.ly/design101group

When a student consistently misses deadlines, misplaces assignments, or struggles to get out the door in the morning, adults often label them as disorganized or careless. Handing them a paper planner or demanding they clean their desk rarely solves the underlying breakdown. Rachel Kapp, founder of Kapp Educational Therapy Group and co-host of the Learn Smarter Podcast, joins Emily to explore how families and educators can design organizational systems that work in the real world rather than just on paper. TAKEAWAYS Handing a student an organizational tool like a planner or binder does not create a system without an explicit, sustainable routine for maintaining it. Time management depends a lot on accurate time estimation, so neurodivergent learners often need to measure how long tasks actually take versus what they assume. Long-term projects demand backward planning, where students break complex assignment prompts into small, answerable questions mapped onto a calendar. Physical organization works best when adults reduce decision fatigue, and align processes with a child's natural pathways. School app sprawl and unmanaged digital inboxes increase baseline anxiety, overwhelming working memory and driving students to avoid tasks entirely. Executive functioning challenges don't reflect on intelligence, effort, or motivation. Mental health professionals, join us October 2 for a presentation by Heather J. DeAngelis, who will explore practical ways clinicians can adapt CBT and ACT to better meet the needs of adults with ADHD. The course is worth 1.5 continuing education hours, and is approved through both the APA and NBCC. Register now to join us October 2 at 2pm Eastern/11:00 am Pacific.

Hour 4 (09.25) Nashville turned pink and lit up fireworks at 9:25 p.m. for its first Dolly Day, a month after Dolly Parton died at 80. Plus: Sherman Oaks neighbors pepper-sprayed a burglar. 9:05 – The Quick Dam Insta-Dam is a flexible polyurethane barrier that blocks water, oil and chemicals without absorbing them. Every little bit helps. The olive ridley sea turtle eggs are safe at the Aquarium of the Pacific, and no, we're not naming them like Jackie and Shadow. A late monsoonal storm set off mudflows in the San Bernardino Mountains, and its apple season: Oak Glen Steak House and U-Pick orchards. 9:20 – KTLA's Chip Yost, one of the best reporters in SoCal, is on a sea turtle watch. More than 200 eggs from the first natural sea turtle nests ever confirmed on the West Coast were moved from Seal Beach and Huntington Beach before this weekend's big surf. They could hatch around early November. Olive ridleys lay their eggs and leave them. The sea turtles are the new eaglets. 9:35 – Nashville Mayor Freddie O'Connell declared September 25 Dolly Day, a nod to "9 to 5." Venues played the song at 5 p.m., buildings glowed pink, businesses raised money for charities including Dolly's Imagination Library, and fireworks went off downtown at 9:25. 9:50 – A burglary suspect was found hiding in a Sherman Oaks dumpster under a pile of leaves. He broke into cars, then forced his way into an older woman's apartment. She got out safely, and two neighbors cornered him in the garage and pepper-sprayed him until police arrived. It was like a movie. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

 Today's conversation is about the debut of Kent Blazy's latest album Tulsa Sessions. What makes Kent Blazy Truly Significant?Kent turned ordinary human feelings into extraordinary songs. Blazy's gift is making universal emotions feel personal. His first collaboration with a then-emerging Garth Brooks, “If Tomorrow Never Comes,” became Brooks' first No. 1 song and was named the NSAI Song of the Year in 1989. Their partnership produced additional Top 5 songs including “Ain't Goin' Down,” “Somewhere Other Than the Night,” “It's Midnight Cinderella,” and “She's Gonna Make It.” That's significant because the songwriter isn't merely entertaining people. He is helping people articulate what they feel but cannot always say. His greatest work may be measured in lives touched, not records sold There is a wonderful Truly Significant paradox in Kent's story: The songwriter often becomes invisible while the song becomes immortal. Millions of people may know the words to a song without knowing the person who helped write them. That makes Blazy a particularly interesting Truly Significant subject. His legacy is embedded in other people's memories, relationships, weddings, heartbreaks, hopes and milestones.He helped launch an important chapter of Garth Brooks' story Blazy and Brooks began writing together in 1987. Their first collaboration became Brooks' first No. 1. But the relationship went considerably deeper than songwriting. At Blazy's Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame induction, Brooks said that Blazy's friendship and love changed his life—and specifically credited Kent with introducing him to Trisha Yearwood. Brooks described that introduction as profoundly consequential to his life. That is classic Truly Significant territory: Sometimes your greatest contribution isn't what you create. It's what you make possible for someone else. He represents the Side Quest becoming the calling Kent started playing guitar and singing in bands in Lexington, Kentucky, toured with Ian Tyson, won a national songwriting competition and eventually moved to Nashville. His early professional breakthrough came when Gary Morris recorded “Headed for a Heartache,” which reached No. 5 on the country chart. The fascinating Side Quest question is: What happens when something you love doing quietly becomes the work you were called to do? For Blazy, songwriting wasn't simply a career strategy. Music was something he was drawn toward from an early age. His own current work continues to explore those musical roots—including albums inspired by The Byrds and The Beatles.His legacy extends well beyond Garth Brooks Blazy's catalog includes songs recorded by Gary Morris, Diamond Rio, Patty Loveless, Chris Young, Crystal Shawanda, Danny Gokey and others. His co-writing on Chris Young's “Gettin' You Home (The Black Dress Song)” produced another No. 1. And in 2020, he was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame, an honor the Hall describes as the highest honor bestowed by Nashville's songwriting community.Kent is a beautiful example of "success vs. significance" distinction. It's never about how many hits did you write.  Significance asks: How many lives did those songs become part of? A hit has a chart position. A significant song has a life after the chart. Enjoy Any Given Day and the entire album Tulsa Sessions.   Visit www.kentblazy.com. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/success-made-to-last-legends--4302039/support.

Oprah filled her Massachusetts podcast audience with Lindsay Clancy's supporters to have a discussion about postpartum psychosis. Unfortunately for Oprah Winfrey there is no proof that Clancy ever suffered from postpartum depression or postpartum psychosis. Roberta worked for Oprah for nine years and has a few personal anecdotes that are inconsistent with Oprah's public simping for Clancy. Oprah has supported the innocence fraud campaigns of Paul Howell's murderer, Julius Jones as well as Stacey Stites' rapist and killer Rodney Reed as well as the Central Park Five gang attackers. Lindsay Clancy was on trial for the murder of her three children- Cora (age 5), Dawson (age 3) and Callan (age eight months). The prosecution alleged that Clancy planned and murdered her children in a methodical and calculated manner. The defense alleged Clancy murdered her children during a postpartum psychosis or bipolar episode. The trial ended in a mistrial with one lone male juror holding out for guilt- the other jurors (9 women and two men) all wanted Clancy to be found Not Guilty By Reason of Insanity.Show Notes:Give Send Go for Hold Out Juror- https://www.givesendgo.com/standwithjurorOprah "The Lindsay Clancy Case.." - https://youtu.be/fxo_-svGEIE?si=AYHdZuI_q7cGdaj1Netflix "Oprah Interviews the [Non} Exonerated Five" - https://youtu.be/5JYzuH_YTBU?si=5A6c7qD1YZVgcdNWCBS News "Oprah Winfrey Urges Texas Governor to Take Pause on Rodney Reed" - https://www.cbsnews.com/news/oprah-winfrey-on-rodney-reed-texas-death-row/CBS This Morning "Oprah urges Texas governor to "take a pause" on Rodney Reed death row..

What an honor to celebrate the significant work of Nancy Griffin. We shared P&G as a training ground and then Nancy became a wealth advisor in Canada. She spent decades helping women understand both health and wealth, but importantly WORTHINESS. Consider Nancy a pioneer, along with luminaries like Melinda French Gates and Dr. Cindy Gordan (The AI Precipice) She talks of generosity as a currency and "a whole new level of kindness." She has a particular message to women who have spent their entire lives taking care of everyone else but themselves. Enjoy Nancy Griffin, one "misbehaving, outspoken character." Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/success-made-to-last-legends--4302039/support.

Nearly 25 years since the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks, President Trump honors 9/11 first responders and officials at the White House, where a steel beam recovered from the original World Trade Center that was attacked is on display.Canada's tariffs on American goods, ranging from seafood to furniture and worth $20 billion, went into effect just after midnight on Tuesday as Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney sought to counter Trump's tariffs on Canada following after trade talks collapsed last month.Canadian Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne announced the tariffs on Aug. 25, following the collapse of trade talks between Washington and Ottawa on Aug. 21.Trump immediately imposed tariffs on $20 billion of Canadian exports to the United States beginning on Aug. 22.

Twenty five years later, Trump stands on the Ellipse with a piece of World Trade Center steel behind him, and delivers what is easily one of the more personal, reflective speeches of his presidency. He recounts being there himself in the days after, being pulled to safety by firefighters as a nearby building creaked, and shares Howard Lutnick's gutting story of surviving 9/11 for one specific reason. There's a Coast Guard cutter dedication honoring a fallen rescue squad member, first responders and military members filling the crowd, and the emotional centerpiece: awarding the Presidential Medal of Freedom, posthumously, to a young man known only as "the man in the red bandana," whose family accepts on his behalf. Frank Siller and Tunnel to Towers anchor the ceremony with their own tribute to service and sacrifice. Less politics, more remembrance, this one leans heavily into the weight of the day itself.

What people say about you when you're not in the room matters. Raymond Sanchez Jr. has seen that play out throughout a career shaped by relationships, mentorship, and people willing to put his name forward because they trusted how he would show up. It is also a lesson he learned early from his father, Raymond Sanchez Sr., who taught him to have a plan, think ahead, and understand that what you know matters, but so does who you know.Ray was only 22 when his father, a union carpenter working at the World Trade Center, was killed on September 11th. In the aftermath, Ray found himself navigating the legal process to establish his father's death, an experience that ultimately helped lead him to law school. Twenty-five years later, his father's example still shows up in the way Ray thinks about service, integrity, and whether he is leaving things better than he found them. He is equally intentional about making sure his father is remembered for who he was, not simply for what happened to him on September 11th.In this episode of Branding Room Only, Paula T. Edgar sits down with Ray to discuss the people and experiences that shaped his career, why doing the right thing when nobody is looking remains central to his personal brand, and how his father continues to influence the choices he makes today. They also reflect on their shared experience of losing a parent on September 11th and why telling their parents' stories matters if their legacies will be more than names on a wall.1:13 – What personal brand means to Ray, three words he'd use to describe himself, his two favorite quotes, and his hype music6:38 – How a childhood in the NYCHA buildings of the Lower East Side forged Ray's code of ethics12:47 – The internship that quietly connected Ray to politicians, Broadway royalty, and two decades of career opportunities19:43 – The exhausting, bureaucratic maze of proving his father's life ever existed, just to get what Ray was legally owed22:24 – Going to law school and working at Brown Brothers Harriman & Co.28:13 – The one thing to consider before accepting any job offer, and the roles Ray took on doing meaningful work in the Hispanic community37:53 – A perfect demonstration of how personal branding is about what people say about (whether you're in or out of the room)41:00 – Why Ray ran for NYC Council District 7, joined a non-profit six weeks before federal investigators raided it, and became its new executive director51:49 – Why Ray almost lost his cool with a city bureaucrat over the phone57:19 – Raymond Sanchez Sr. as a man and a father, and what his son Ray remembers most about him1:03:39 – The morning of September 11th through Ray's eyes, and his father's quiet act of heroism that day1:11:32 – The dehumanization of the 9/11 victim's compensation fund, and how that experience proved to be a turning point that led Ray to law school1:18:26 – How losing his dad the way he did turned Ray into who he is now1:21:31 – Standing up for our communities as legacy, and why the phrase “victims' families” never told the whole story1:24:19 – Pushing back against being only defined by 9/11, why it took 15 years for Ray to talk about that day and tell his father's story1:28:15 – The joyful, fun parts of Ray today that his dad would recognize and be proud of1:30:54 – What ethics demands of you when nobody's watching, and Ray's special talent to quickly synthesize complexityConnect With Raymond Sanchez Jr.Raymond Sanchez Jr., Esq. has spent two decades building a career at the intersection of law, government, and public advocacy — moving fluidly between City Hall, the private sector, and the nonprofit boardroom in ways that have repeatedly put him in the room where a crisis needed a steady hand. He most recently served as General Counsel to the NYC Mayor's Office of Contract Services, advising the City's Chief Procurement Officer on citywide policy and compliance. Before that, he was appointed CEO of Aguila, Inc., a NYC homeless services nonprofit, where he led the organization through a New York State Attorney General investigation and a pandemic-era transformation of a 200-bed shelter into the city's largest COVID quarantine center. His earlier chapters include Managing Director at Mercury Public Affairs, Principal of his own government relations firm, and seven years as General Counsel and Director of Policy to the Bronx Borough President, where he helped pass NYC's Living Wage Law and secured the conveyance of the Fulton Correctional Facility for a first-of-its-kind reentry housing program.A first-generation Latino leader, Raymond holds a J.D. from Rutgers School of Law and a B.A. in Government from Wesleyan University, and serves on the board of Areté Education and as a special advisor to the La Unidad Latina Foundation. He is a two-time honoree on NYC "40 Under 40" lists and a recipient of the Council of Urban Professionals' Law Catalyst Award.LinkedIn | InstagramMentioned In How Raymond Sanchez Jr. Honors His Father's Legacy 25 Years After September 11Hispanic FederationLatino JusticeThe Boys Club of New York (BCNY)9/11 Memorial & MuseumCurated Resources from PaulaSign up for Paula's Upcoming Events Learn More About Paula's Personal Branding Strategy Session OfferSubscribe to The Branding Room Only podcast on YouTubeCall to ActionFollow & Review: Help others find the podcast.
