Koen Schmitz is Chief Commercial Officer at Vox AI, an Amsterdam-based voice AI company building drive-through and phone ordering agents for quick-service restaurants. Schmitz explains why most AI drive-through failures come down to implementation, and how Vox AI trains a separate model for each individual restaurant location to handle dialects, product slang, and background noise. He also covers response latency, the handoff between AI and human operators, staff reaction in real restaurants, and how order-ahead pickup could reshape drive-through design.

It's one of the most transformative investments you can make in yourself and your coaching. I've taught or mentored over 2000 coaches, and I hear the same thing again and again. I came because I had to, and I am so glad that I did. Coaches tell me they walk away with renewed energy, deeper confidence and a community of peers who genuinely support each other. Here's what you need to know right now. Mentor coaching must span a minimum of three months, so the time to start is not when your credential is just about to expire. And if you complete your hours in 2026, you get ahead of the upcoming ICF changes, which means peace of mind along with skill development. My fall cohort is already filling up. Every group is capped at ten. It's small, personal, and powerful. If you've been waiting for the right time, this is it. So head over to Star Coach Show.

What can a 173-mile pilgrimage teach a family about faith, resilience, and life together? Dave and Jll McLain join Pastor Nate on Together 4 Good to share how they walked the Camino de Santiago from Porto, Portugal, to Santiago de Compostela, Spain, with their four children. Along the way, aching feet, welcoming villages, fellow pilgrims, and small acts of generosity open into a conversation about family sabbaticals, resilience, faith milestones, and why shared challenges can make strangers feel like family.In This Episode• The Camino's Christian roots and its modern life as a global pilgrimage route• Why the McLains chose the Portuguese Way and walked 280 kilometers in 13 consecutive days• How physical challenge creates resilience, perspective, and lasting family memories• The scallop shell, pilgrim passport, and rituals that build connection along the way• How hospitality and generosity let entire communities participate in a pilgrimageKey Takeaways• Hard things become part of our toolbox. Completing a difficult journey gives us evidence that we can face the next challenge.• Pilgrimage is communal. The marked path, shared symbols, fellow travelers, and hospitality of local communities remind us that faith is never practiced alone.• Milestones matter.

In this episode of Peachtree Corners Life, host Rico Figliolini sits down with City Manager Brian Johnson — fittingly, at a local restaurant table — to unpack one of the city's most talked-about recent decisions: the $3.2 million purchase of the former CineBistro building and its adjoining parking lot at the Town Center.Johnson walks through how the deal came together, why it was negotiated privately before going to a public vote and how the city paid for it without taking on any debt.The conversation goes beyond the transaction itself, diving into what comes next: a market analysis from real estate firm JLL, three possible development paths ranging from reusing the existing building to a full teardown and redesign and a firm signal from the city council that residential apartments won't be part of the plan.Rico and Brian also address community pushback and transparency concerns head-on, explaining why real estate negotiations happen behind closed doors and what residents can expect from an upcoming public input process.It's a candid, detailed look at how local government navigates an unplanned opportunity — and an open invitation for residents to weigh in on what comes next.

The market has evolved. The questions are just as relevant. A Retail Retold Replay looking back at retail in 2024.We're throwing it back to ICSC 2024 with James Cook, Americas Director of Retail Research at JLL and host of the Where We Buy podcast.From the DLC booth in Las Vegas, James and Chris Ressa shared a quick and impactful conversation on the trends shaping retail real estate, from the continued strength of open-air centers to the challenges created by historically low vacancy. While leasing activity has slowed, Cook explains why that's more a reflection of limited supply than weakening demand, and why he remains optimistic about the health of retailers and the consumer.The conversation also explores where artificial intelligence could have the biggest impact on the industry. As AI tools become more sophisticated, the opportunity isn't a lack of technology. It's finding ways to apply it to an industry built on private data, complex lease structures, and physical assets.They also touch on one of retail's more unexpected growth stories: celebrity-backed restaurants.
