Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Tammeca Rochester. SUMMARY OF THE TAMMECA ROCHESTER INTERVIEW From “Money Making Conversations Master Class” with Rushion McDonald 1. Purpose of the Interview The interview was designed to: Spotlight Tammeca Rochester, founder and CEO of Harlem Cycle, and her journey from engineering and corporate marketing into entrepreneurship. Highlight the importance of holistic wellness, community‑based fitness, and representation within the fitness industry. Inspire entrepreneurs—especially Black women—to pursue business ownership, develop strong business plans, and stay committed to their vision despite barriers. Overall, the interview serves as both a success story and a lesson in entrepreneurship, community impact, and personal transformation. 2. Summary of Key Themes A. Re‑Defining Herself Through Education & Career Changes Tammeca explains why she pursued multiple degrees—from Spelman and Georgia Tech to NYU Stern—and how each phase of her life motivated a new direction. She began in engineering, shifted to business, and ultimately found her passion in wellness. B. The Birth of Harlem Cycle Launched out of personal stress relief and a desire for culturally inclusive fitness spaces. Indoor cycling reminded her of joyful childhood bike rides in Atlanta. She wanted a wellness space where Black people felt seen, represented, and culturally connected—something missing from other cycling studios she attended. C. Building a Community-Centered Fitness Brand Harlem Cycle blends movement, music, and culture, playing the genres she grew up with—reggae, soca, hip‑hop—and fostering a socially connected environment.She stresses that fitness isn’t just physical but also emotional and mental health. D. Entrepreneurship: The Real Story Tammeca self‑financed her business after being denied a bank loan. She built her studio while still working full‑time and caring for a young child. Her first year was grueling—waking up at 5:30am and working until after 9pm daily. She emphasizes the importance of writing a business plan, using realistic projections, and staying true to your vision. E. Mentorship, Representation, and Industry Impact Over 60% of her team began as Harlem Cycle clients she later trained to become instructors. She aims to shift the fitness industry to include more diverse voices and accessible community wellness options. She plans for expansion, opening a third Harlem Cycle location in Newark to serve another community with limited wellness options. 3. Key Takeaways 1. You can redefine yourself at any point in life. “We can always redefine ourselves at any moment in life.” 2. Wellness must address the whole person. “Fitness is not just physical… it’s emotional and mental well‑being.” 3. Create community spaces where people feel represented. Tammeca built Harlem Cycle because she felt isolated in other fitness spaces as the only person of color. She wanted a studio rooted in Black culture and community. 4. Entrepreneurship requires discipline, planning, and sacrifice. “Write out your plan… and stay true to your plan.” “Just because you build it doesn’t mean they’ll come.” 5. Community impact drives her business model. Harlem Cycle isn’t just a workout studio—it's a culturally rooted community center focused on mental, emotional, and physical health. 6. Representation & mentorship matter. “60% of my team started as clients that we trained.” 4. Memorable Quotes Here are the strongest, most quotable lines from Tammeca: On Reinvention “Each time has been a moment in life where I evolved because of a goal I personally wanted.” On Holistic Fitness “Fitness to me is all about how we take care of our bodies—not just our physical body, but our emotional well‑being, our mental well‑being.” On Creating Harlem Cycle “I didn’t want to be the only person of color in the room—again. I wanted a place where my community could be seen.” On Entrepreneurship “Just because you build it doesn’t mean they’ll come… back down those numbers by 90%.” On Community Impact “We’re changing the fitness industry… starting here in Harlem by training our clients to be part of the wellness industry.” On Cultural Integrity “We don’t care about competition here—it’s about community.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSteve Harvey Morning Show Online: http://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hello! This is Episode 409. This is Way #9 of the 44 Ways to Create Your Sustainable Home series. This episode also closes out Section Two: Sustainable Design Strategies. In this episode, we’re finishing Section Two with Way #9. Way #9 is: Improve Your Indoor Air Quality. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/409] The ways I’ve been sharing in Section Two have been about the bigger-picture design decisions that need to be thought about early, but can create a huge amount of impact in your future home’s sustainability, functionality and performance. We’ve covered designing a smaller, smarter home, choosing an aligned team, creating an efficient structural design collaboratively, and future proofing your home with accessibility. I know that when most people think about sustainability, they’re thinking about energy, water, and materials, and how they can save all of those things. But a sustainable home is also a healthy home. And, given that we spend 80 to 90% of our time indoors, and especially since COVID, much of that time is now in our homes. The quality of indoor air that your renovation or new build creates will have a big impact on the health of all living in the home, and how the home functions for you long-term. Indoor air quality is directly impacted by decisions you make about the materials and finishes you include in your home, and the ventilation strategy you adopt. Those decisions are ideally made during design and specification. If indoor air quality is important to you, your goals for it belong in your Design Brief, right alongside other strategic design and specification decisions you want to prioritise in your project. In this episode, I take you through how indoor air quality is part of your sustainability considerations, the main sources of indoor air pollution in residential homes, how moisture and ventilation connect to this, and what you can actually do at the design and specification stage. As always, if you'd like to access a full transcript of this episode and links to any resources I mention, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/409. Now, let's dive in!

A maximum of 5W of power can be used in this contest. Now the radio propagation report, compiled by G0KYA, G3YLA and G4BAO on Thursday, the 4th of June. We are awaiting the arrival of solar material as a result of three coronal mass ejections, or CMEs, that erupted off the Sun. These were sparked by three solar flares. These, coupled with a high-speed solar wind stream from an Earth-facing coronal hole, threaten to initiate a geomagnetic storm. A strong G3 geomagnetic storm has been predicted, which could push the Kp index up to 6 or 7, and push maximum usable frequencies down, perhaps lasting through the weekend and affecting RSGB National Field Day. Meanwhile, the solar flux index has crept up and stood at 147 on Thursday, the 4th of June. This has meant that the ionosphere has been playing ball, with lots of reports of DX being worked, either through F-region propagation or Sporadic E. The 10m band has been sounding like 20m at times, especially around the FT8 frequency of 28.074MHz. DX to be worked this week includes 5Z4/MM0ZBH in Kenya, 8Q7ML in the Maldives, VJ2L on Lord Howe Island, 5H1KB in Tanzania and 9X5KM operating from Rwanda. We are now heading for midsummer, which means the 20m band may be open 24 hours a day. In general, F-region maximum usable frequencies, or MUFs, will be lower than in the winter or spring. However, Sporadic-E makes up for that with strong signals on the higher HF bands out to 1,500km on a single hop, with occasional multi-hop openings. Next week NOAA predicts that the solar flux index will decline, perhaps into the 120 to 135 range. After the recent geomagnetic upset clears, conditions are predicted to stabilise, with the Kp index forecast to be around 2 for the beginning of the coming week. Unsettled geomagnetic conditions are then forecast from Thursday the 11th to Sunday the 14th with the potential for the Kp index to hit between 4 and 6, with a corresponding drop in the MUF. And now the VHF and up propagation news from G3YLA and G4BAO The unsettled weather has brought some heavy rain and a few chances of rain scatter for the GHz bands, but it does also tend to limit the chances of tropo. However, it is the UK that retains the unsettled weather, whereas the continent is still enjoying relatively higher pressure. So perhaps stations in southern Britain may be able to gain some occasional tropo advantage. There are options for meteor scatter from the Arietids, which peak early this coming week. Some predict that it will be a strong shower this year. Since it's a daytime meteor shower, it can be very useful for Sporadic-E, which makes use of the ionisation they leave behind. The Kp index has been gently disturbed at times, but not enough to generate any exciting radio aurora. However, it has possibly been disturbed enough to subdue Sporadic-E at times, as this depends on a stable and low Kp index to be most effective. Sporadic-E itself has provided some reasonable European openings and a few longer multi-hop paths for the digital modes. This unsettled weather produces strong jet streams, for summer, and should continue to be useful for providing the turbulence needed as part of the process for making Sporadic-E. The placement of the jet streams may, however, be confined to the northwestern fringe of Europe and perhaps prompt a focus on Scandinavia and northern Europe for any resulting Sporadic-E. EME now, and after last week's low declination and apogee, this week sees Moon declination increasing again and path losses falling. The 144MHz sky temperature is low all week. And that's all from the propagation team this week.

#719: Most of us spend 93 percent of our time indoors, and it's making us sicker, more tired, and less productive than we realize. Dr. John La Puma is a physician and researcher who studies what happens to the human body when it's indoors too much. He joins us to explain the science behind what he calls the indoor epidemic: the chronic diseases, burnout, insomnia, and cognitive decline that stem from a life lived almost entirely inside. Dr. La Puma walks through the specific biological mechanisms at play. Indoor living disrupts your circadian rhythm and bombards your brain with more screen time than it can process — what he calls "digital obesity." Too many pixels, he says, burn out your brain the same way too much sugar burns out your metabolism. Burnout isn't a character flaw. It's a biology problem. The good news: the minimum effective dose of outdoor time is just two hours a week in a green or blue space. And it doesn't have to be a national park. The park down the street counts. We get into the specifics — morning light, circadian rhythm, deep sleep, and why 10 minutes outside before you check your phone can improve focus, sleep quality, and even how big the world feels. Dr. La Puma explains why "just get outside more" misses the point: light has a dosage, a timing, and a location, the same way a financial strategy has specific mechanics. For knowledge workers in cities, we talk through the real-world friction — Manhattan apartments, extreme heat, early wake-ups before sunrise — and what to do when those conditions make outdoor time inconvenient. There are practical workarounds, and Dr. La Puma covers them. The episode closes on a reframe: health and productivity aren't in conflict. Better sleep, more natural light, and regular time outside don't slow you down. They make the hours you do work more effective.

https://mikkoschoice.com/ In this episode of The Pet Pig Podcast, Autumn dives deep into one of the most important aspects of pig care: enrichment. This conversation goes beyond simply "keeping your pig busy" and explores how true mental and physical stimulation directly impacts a pig's behavior, emotional well-being, and overall quality of life. Autumn breaks down what enrichment really means, highlighting how it allows pigs to express natural behaviors like rooting, foraging, exploring, and problem-solving. Backed by research, she explains how enrichment reduces stress, improves learning ability, and prevents destructive and aggressive behaviors—while the lack of it can lead to frustration, anxiety, and behavioral issues. You'll also walk away with a wide range of practical, easy-to-implement ideas, including: Indoor enrichment setups like rooting boxes, snuffle mats, ball pits, paper activities, and blanket piles Outdoor enrichment like walks, tarp play, straw bales, and dedicated rooting areas Simple strategies like rotating toys and environments to keep your pig's world engaging without overwhelming them Autumn also connects the dots between enrichment and common behavior problems, explaining how a mentally fulfilled pig is calmer, less destructive, and easier to live with. If you want a happier, healthier pig—and a more peaceful home—this episode is packed with real-life insight and actionable ideas to help your pig truly thrive.

What if the reason you're exhausted, foggy, anxious, inflamed, or constantly not feeling like yourself… is actually your home? Most people think about health through the lens of food, supplements, hormones, or fitness. But what if the air you breathe, the water you shower in, the mold hidden behind your walls, the chemicals in your home, or even the EMFs surrounding you every day are silently impacting your body? In this eye-opening episode, Autumn sits down with Ryan Blaser, founder and CEO of Test My Home, to uncover the hidden environmental stressors affecting modern homes and the people living inside them. With a background in electrical engineering, environmental toxicology, mold remediation, and building biology, Ryan has spent years helping families identify the unseen toxins contributing to symptoms like brain fog, fatigue, anxiety, sleep disruption, chronic inflammation, and more. After becoming seriously ill from mold exposure himself, Ryan turned his personal health crisis into a mission: helping others create healthier living environments and uncover root causes many people never think to investigate. Inside this episode, we discuss: • Mold toxicity and hidden water damage • Why "clean-looking" homes can still be toxic • Indoor air quality and brain fog • EMF exposure and sleep disruption • Chemicals hiding in everyday products • Water contamination and microplastics • Why new homes can sometimes be the most toxic • Air purifiers, healthy home tips, and practical changes you can make today • The surprising connection between environmental toxins and chronic symptoms Ryan also shares real stories from homes he's tested, including cases involving severe mold exposure, neurological symptoms, emotional changes, and hidden environmental triggers most people would never suspect. This conversation will completely change the way you think about your home, your health, and the environment surrounding you every single day. ✴️ Find Test My Home on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, or YouTube

Summary In this episode, Andy welcomes Dr. John La Puma, a board-certified internal medicine physician, professionally trained chef, regenerative organic farmer, and two-time New York Times bestselling author of The Indoor Epidemic. Did you know most of us spend about 93% of our lives indoors? Dr. John makes the case, backed by more than 2,200 studies, that where we spend our time may matter just as much as the soft skills and productivity systems we so often focus on. In this conversation, Andy and Dr. John dig into what he calls digital obesity and analog wellness, the science of morning sunlight and circadian rhythm, why looking at the horizon for just one minute per hour can improve focus and eye health, and what forest bathing actually does to your immune system. They also explore loneliness as a health crisis, the social dimension of outdoor time, and practical ways to build a 17-minute daily nature habit that doesn't require moving to Santa Barbara. If you're looking for science-backed ways to boost your energy, focus, and long-term wellbeing, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "Digital obesity is when you consume more pixels than you can metabolize." "What people don't understand about this is that it's not a character flaw, that it's a biological mismatch." "People don't appreciate that nature is actually social, and that social part is good for you." "And loneliness is what? 15 cigarettes a day in mortality." "Nature works through your senses. You touch, you listen, you see, you smell, you taste." "You have a 56% higher function and number of natural killer cells because you are in the company of trees that are making these chemicals, alpha-pinene, D-limonene in citrus trees, many other trees, that improve your ability to kill tumor cells and kill virus infected cells." "But immersion in the forest means that you're immersing your senses in it, and the forest is, is the therapist, and the walk is the therapy." "Rest is actually self-preservation and capital investment." "Often you can upgrade the thinking in a room just by opening a window." "But you don't need a forest, and you don't need a park even. You just need a sky view."

Most of us spend up to 90% of our lives indoors—but how often do we think about the air we're breathing inside buildings? Indoor air quality plays a critical role in human health, especially in places like hospitals, schools, and offices where airborne pathogens and contaminants can spread quickly. Yet for decades, building systems have relied on static approaches like basic ventilation and filtration. That's starting to change. In this episode of The Optimistic Outlook In Five, guest host Lauren Espin explores how a groundbreaking initiative called BREATHE is transforming the future of healthy buildings. By combining biosensors, real-time risk assessment software, and advanced building automation, this program aims to reduce respiratory disease transmission by at least 25%. Siemens is helping lead this shift, integrating digital twin technology and AI-driven building controls to create environments that can detect airborne threats and respond instantly, adjusting airflow, filtration, and disinfection in real time. The result? Buildings that don't just monitor air quality, but actively predict, adapt, and protect human health.

The boys open the show with a plethora of thoughts. For starters, RIP QVC & the infomercial era. We will miss you. Adam could not stop laughing when watching the Cleveland Cavaliers new on court game. Indoor pet people, for the love of everything holy, check your clothes before leaving home. Burk introduces a new movie game and it is TOUGH, plus the perfect song of the week. In the meat, Mm!, we draft the all-time 90s drinks! Who remembers these gems?! We close the show with some childhood memories. Hut Hut! Love y'all.
Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. John La Puma, internist, chef, and regenerative farmer.
Indoor Epidemic: Prescribing Nature, Light, Air, and Movement with Dr. John La Puma, internist, chef, and regenerative farmer. His book, "Indoor Epidemic," argues that spending about 93% of life indoors undermines health through poor light timing, air quality, limited movement, and reduced nature exposure. La Puma cites data that outdoor morning light helps set circadian rhythms, while nighttime blue light can impair sleep quality and raise cardiovascular risks, referencing a large UK Biobank study. He discusses indoor pollutants and CO2 buildup affecting inflammation and cognition, recommends strategies like getting daylight early (even just a sky view), using circadian lighting, and taking brief outdoor breaks to reduce myopia risk. He describes measurable benefits of forest bathing and gardening (including immune and mood effects), notes hospital studies linking window views to shorter stays and less pain medication, and reviews his pioneering work in culinary medicine now taught widely in medical schools, emphasizing cooking and growing food as preventive and therapeutic tools.
Minneapolis considers first downtown indoor playground for winter play.Minneapolis city planners are considering an indoor playground downtown as they survey residents on whether the idea would bring more families to the area.The city is in the early stages of the idea and is asking residents about parking, security and spending habits. City planners are also asking about different parts of downtown as they study whether an indoor playground makes sense.“Where are you supposed to go in the winter… There's not too many places to take kids to play,” said Minneapolis resident Isabella Reichert, who works as a nanny.Places like that are already common in suburbs, including Edina and Eagan, but this would be a first in Minneapolis.Fox News chief political anchor Bret Baier has confirmed LIV Golf's financial backing from the Public Investment Fund (PIF) will come to an end after the 2026 season, delivering the clearest indication yet that the Saudi-funded breakaway league faces an uncertain future beyond next year.Baier, citing two sources with direct knowledge of the situation, revealed that while the PIF will continue to fund LIV Golf through the remainder of the 2026 campaign, its long-term financial commitment is set to be withdrawn as part of a broader shift in priorities. The funding through 2026 is expected to cover all major operational aspects of the league, including player contracts, television agreements and tournament staging.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
