On this episode, host Pete Moore reconnects with Jaja Jackson, a longtime friend and fellow Harvard Business School alum, for a deep dive into the intersection of real estate, hospitality, and health. Jaja shares his path from developing homes and communities, to joining Airbnb in its pivotal years, where he helped bridge the gap between multifamily housing and the (then) cutting-edge world of home sharing. Now a leader at Iconic Capital, Jackson discusses how his team has reimagined multifamily properties to boost net operating income and create vibrant, HALO-focused communities. (Health, Active Lifestyle, Outdoors.) Pete and Jaja explore how many lessons from hospitality and flexible living can--and probably should--carry over into the health club industry—emphasizing the importance of relationship-building, curated experiences, and bringing on top-tier talent. They discuss the role of loneliness in today's health crisis and offer actionable ideas for club operators, from employing inspiring staff to forming innovative partnerships with residential buildings. Jackson provides solid suggestions and practical takeaways from outside the industry that any club operator would do well to take seriously. Listen now for this fresh perspective on elevating the HALO sector. On increasing the yield in multifamily without major renovations, Jackson states, "All you're doing is changing the operator and in some cases investing in furnishings to extend the value and the operation of your amenities in common spaces . . . that translates into an unlevered yield increase of between 1 and 5 or 6%. And it's tremendous!" Key themes discussed Evolution of Airbnb and real estate partnerships. Creating flexible living asset classes for higher returns. Overcoming resistance and building trust in hospitality innovation. Strategies to enhance resident and member experiences. Importance of health, wellness, and community in living spaces. Leveraging talent (athletes, trainers) for cultural impact. Addressing loneliness and building genuine connections. A few key takeaways:  1. Transforming Multifamily Real Estate Through Flexible Living: Jaja shared his experience moving from "traditional" real estate development to pioneering “flexible living” while at Airbnb and now at Iconic Capital. By blending hospitality concepts with class A multifamily buildings, he helped create new asset value and returns, boosting net operating income by 15–40% without expensive renovations. 2. The Power of Trust and Experience in Merging Hospitality & Real Estate: Initially, the biggest hurdles were skepticism and trust issues from large apartment owners about the idea of short-term rentals. Jaja and his team addressed this by building software and policies ensuring resident safety and a trusted experience, paving the way for programs like Airbnb's Friendly Buildings. 3. Culture and Personalization Are Game Changers in Health and Fitness: Drawing parallels to the health club space, Jaja highlights that the sector is overdue for a hospitality-like approach—moving beyond transactional relationships to foster real community and deep personalization. He suggests health clubs can learn from hospitality by knowing members' needs, supporting their goals, and making every interaction memorable. 4. Building Community and Combating Loneliness: Both in multifamily living and health clubs, facilitating real connections is crucial. Jaja's approach includes encouraging residents to meet each other through fitness amenities and group activities, even integrating professional athletes as resident “ambassadors” to inspire and engage. He strongly believes in addressing not just physical health, but also combating loneliness and building social connections as a core part of wellness. 5. Talent and Ownership Mindset Are Critical: Whether in property management or fitness clubs, success hinges on having the right people—those who think like owners, have charisma, and are invested for the long term. Jaja and Pete both emphasize the importance of intentional hiring (“pay for talent”) and instilling commitment, suggesting businesses treat employee recruitment and culture-building as vital investments, not afterthoughts. The statements by Jaja are not investment advice and do not represent ICONIQ Capital or Airbnb.

En wat blijkt?  Hij maakt nog steeds theater,  speelt in oktober zijn voorstelling “Maurice”,  schreef boeken en geeft lezingen rond pesten.  En daarbovenop doet hij misschien wel de nuttigste job op aarde: les geven!  Geniet van deze dosis vrolijkheid op je frieten deze week!  Meer info over de voorstellingen en lezingen van Steph, vind je hier: https://stephgoossens.be/agenda/   Honger gekregen na het luisteren en zin in FOODBAG?

We would sit straight in a barber's chair, getting our hair braided, for 2-3.5 hours to see this show. Disclaimer: Emily is intermittently employed by La Jolla Playhouse. The views expressed in this podcast are not the views of La Jolla Playhouse; they are hers and hers alone.

Ook dit jaar waren we net als de rest van medialand Nederland aanwezig bij de uitreiking van de jaarlijkse media awards in het chique Tuschinski-theater. Jaja, de AMMA's. Op verzoek van de VIA bespraken we in ‘Bakkie style' deze Oscars uit het mediavak. Na het luisteren van deze special AMMA edition ben je helemaal op de hoogte van de mooiste campagnes van 2024. De spraakmakende ‘Beetje van mij' campagne van KPN over cyberpesten kwam als torenhoge favoriet naar Amsterdam nadat ze in Europa al diverse prijzen hadden opgehaald. Ze maakten dat meer dan waar, evenals de AH-Whamsters die Last Christmas afgelopen december dunnetjes over deden, maar er waren meer opmerkelijke zaken… een opengebroken straat in Spijkenisse, inbrekende artsen en Galliërs uit Asterix en Obelix en niet te vergeten artiesten zoals Meau, Broederliefde en Claude die zich allen op hun eigen manier verbonden aan onderwerpen waar ze passie voor voelden. Maar ook Jody Bernal die de eer had om de verliezers en winnaars samen te laten smelten in de Escape. Want AMMA's gaan weliswaar elke jaar weer over het ‘que si, que no' winnen van een prijs, maar aan het einde heeft iedereen hoe dan ook een mooie en gezellige avond gehad.. Genoeg reden om er weer even goed voor te gaan zitten.

For many Black women, the hair salon is a cultural safe space, where stories and secrets help build an intimate community. In SpeakEasy Stage's production of the Tony-winning play, “Jaja's African Hair Braiding,” the West African immigrants who do the braiding and the customers seeking their services come together in a funny play that also explores serious current-day immigration policies. Three members of the cast and crew join Callie to talk more about the production.

In this episode, Erica sits down with Jaja Chen, co-owner of Cha Community, to talk about her life in Waco as an immigrant, what it's been like bringing cultural recognition to her heritage, and how she and her husband, Devin, have built more than just a tea shop—they've built a true community. Jaja shares how her love for boba tea started when she was just a kid—she was literally the one “in charge” of the boba in her family. That deep connection to the drink is at the heart of Cha Community's mission to bridge cultures and bring people together. It's also why they rebranded from Waco Cha to Cha Community—because their business has grown to be about so much more than tea. Erica loved learning about the flavors, ideas, and celebrations that Jaja and Devin have introduced to Waco. Their passion for representation, connection, and cultural storytelling is evident in every step they've taken. From their handcrafted boba drinks and dumplings to the way they intentionally create a welcoming space, Cha Community is proof that food and drink can bring people together in powerful ways.

Najnovija epizoda podkasta pod zaštitom Međunarodnog PEN centra "Dobar loš zao" stigla je u vaše mobilne telefone, laptopove i ostale pametne aparate. U prvom delu emisije Nenad Kulačin i Marko Vidojković setili su se Vukašina Crnčevića, analizirali su provod naprednjaka u Nišu, zapitali se da li je Kralj Obrva spreman za tetoviranje u zatvoru, a uradili su i redovnu psihičku analizu gospodina Vućića. Gost je član predsedništva pokreta SRCE, kapetan bojnog broda i vojni analitičar, Petar Bošković! Kapetan Bošković izneo je svoje mišljenje o situaciji u vojsci i drugim službama bezbednosti, detaljno je objasnio kako su organizovane režimske parapolicijske i paravojne formacije, obrazložio je predlog opozicije o vladi narodnog poverenja, a ima i jasnu viziju kako će se sve ovo završiti. Uz to, uporedio je kako je bilo raditi u Upravi za odnose sa javnošću pod Vućićem, Vulinom i Šutanovcem. U Magarećem kutku shvatićete da se u DLZ skoro uopšte ne psuje u odnosu na neke druge.
