This summer has not only brought a completely new theme park to the Orlando tourist scape, but within it, two impressive theatrical shows within its park's gates. At the same time, Disney's Hollywood Studios has opened two theatrical shows within its studio gates. In a showdown, we'll look at Le Cirque Arcanus in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter--Ministry of Magic as well as The Untrainable Dragon from the Isle of Berk--both premiering at Epic Universe. We'll also take a look at two new shows that just premiered at Disney's Hollywood Studios, Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After and The Little Mermaid Musical Adventure. From queue to finale, from performers to technical staging, we'll look at which of these fare best and are worth your time. The competition is tough, so join us as we look at these four new theatrical shows in two very unique Florida theme parks. ____________________________________________________________________ More Disney Insights can be found below!

In this episode of the Self-Employed Life, I had the great privilege of speaking with Nesha Pai, author of the book “Overcoming Ordinary Obstacles”. Nesha shared how she transitioned from running a fully remote accounting firm to empowering others to pursue their boldest dreams.  She further explains how personal tragedies deepened her mission. We explored the difference between courage and bravery, the “Four C's” framework she uses to guide dreamers into bold action, and how cultivating personal style and daily confidence practices can help us show up as the person we're becoming. Nesha's story is a great reminder that taking courageous, intentional steps—especially through life's hardest seasons—can lead to extraordinary transformation. Nesha Pai is the founder of Pai CPA, PLLC, a fully remote bookkeeping firm in Charlotte, NC.   She started her firm in February 2011,  and was one of the first in the industry to create a fully remote office model, along with giving employment opportunities to primarily to stay-at-home moms. As a single mom, sole owner, she grew from one client on her kitchen table to over 72 with revenues in the multiple six digits. In January 2020 , Nesha published her book “Overcoming Ordinary Obstacles”, which won the award in the Multicultural Non-Fiction category by the 2020 competition of the American Book Fest.  She is currently known as an international speaker, activating women and entrepreneurs to go boldly into the life of their dreams by cultivating the right tools to overcome the obstacles in their way. Nesha is a recent breast cancer survivor and was named one of the Top 50 Infulential Women in The Mecklenburg Times (2020 and 2024), on of Charlotte's biggest media publications.

Jake Tapper's new book Original Sin: President Biden's Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again is making headlines—but not just for what's in it. The backlash, the omissions, the PR fallout—it's all part of a larger failure in messaging that started long before the first leak.In this episode, I'm breaking down the five communication sins at the core of the Biden coverup. It's not about politics. It's about power, spin, and what happens when leaders forget that concealment is not strategy.You'll hear:The five sins: from silencing to filtering the message The Tapper media tour misfireWhy crisis spin can't beat truth—even with a teleprompterHow these same mistakes show up in boardrooms, campaigns, and C-suitesThis isn't about politics or who you voted for.

There’s no question that loneliness has become a global epidemic and is now being recognized as the invisible illness of our day and age. And the sad reality is that it’s always the undiagnosed illnesses that are the most dangerous and deadly. Dr. Mark Mayfield defines loneliness as: “The state of being unseen or unnoticed—relationally, emotionally, mentally, physically, or spiritually. It’s marked by a deep sense of hopelessness.” And loneliness is more than just a feeling. It’s a disease pathway, meaning as loneliness increases, so do levels of anxiety, depression, substance use, and even suicide risk. According to a Cigna survey of over 20,000 adults: 54% felt no one truly knew them, 43% said their relationships didn’t feel meaningful, and 36% said they didn’t feel like they had anyone to turn to. Again, that’s not just concerning—it’s a crisis. Because no matter who you are, where you're from, or what you've been through, you were designed to be connected. For this reason as we are nearing the end of Mental Health Awareness Month, we are bringing on a very special guest who is an expert in human connection and leadership - Jordan Montgomery. Jordan is a USA Today bestselling author, renowned performance coach, and keynote speaker, trusted by elite business executives, sales teams, professional athletes, and entrepreneurs. Known for his dynamic presence and transformative insights, Jordan has shared the stage with countless luminaries such as Jon Gordon, John Maxwell, Angela Duckworth, and many others. Additionally, he and his wife, Ashley, lead Montgomery Companies, a powerhouse team of nationally recognized speakers and coaches. Whether in the boardroom or on the sports field, their team excels at helping leaders and teams reach peak performance. Their impressive client roster includes Fortune 500 companies like John Deere, Northwestern Mutual, and Principal Financial, as well as elite athletes, Olympians, and Super Bowl champions. In today’s conversation we will be discussing his most recent book, The Art of Encouragement, in order to help you more effectively lead with, serve, connect, and spread love with those you interact with.

There is so much to love about Universal's new Epic Universe. And if they get it to work, it will be even better. Many have already done podcasts early on and shared what they loved or didn't love about the park. Reviews of favorite attractions, food, souvenirs and so forth are out there. My wife and I, two of my daughters and my son-in-law have all attended, and for the most part, we had not only a solid experience, but we look forward to the time we can go back again. It's definitely a place worth repeating. I look forward to an opportunity to share our family's review of the experience, but my focus is not so much from a guest point of view but from a park design and operational focus. And there's so much here that is working. I will look at issues of park layout, scale and scope, thematic approach, interactivity, operations and more. Since this is Disney Insights, we want to consider these approaches in comparison to best practices Disney employs.It's not just a critical look at the design and operation of Universal's new park, but a new focus on what is working and what is not working at Disney.  So join us as we explore lessons good and bad from Universal Florida's Epic Universe. ____________________________________________________________________ More Disney Insights can be found below!

How do you scale a premium service brand in a saturated industry while maintaining quality, consistency, and culture? Building a luxury home improvement franchise may seem like a high-stakes gamble in an industry plagued by unreliable contractors and inconsistent service. But Nick Lopez, Founder & Steward of LIME Painting, has turned that challenge into a national success story—elevating home services into a premium experience and creating a business model that continues to gain momentum across the U.S. Lopez started his entrepreneurial journey out of necessity, launching a painting business in college to help pay tuition. What began as a way to stay in school became a calling when he noticed a glaring gap in the home improvement space: high-end homeowners had few reliable options for quality craftsmanship and professional service. By focusing on elite clientele and emphasizing consistency, Lopez built what has become a standout luxury home improvement franchise. LIME Painting wasn't designed to compete on price. From the start, the brand positioned itself around delivering value, not volume. Lopez realized that high-end clients didn't just want paint on walls—they wanted trust, responsiveness, and excellence. The LIME model filled that void. Clients praised the company simply for answering the phone and showing up. In an industry where the bar was low, exceeding expectations became a growth engine. Ford Saeks emphasized the value of positioning during the conversation, noting that it takes the same effort to sell a premium service as it does a budget one. That insight aligns with Lopez's strategy: rather than cut corners or race to the bottom, LIME Painting doubled down on quality, communication, and client experience. At the core of LIME's success is a business model designed for scalability. Long before awarding its first franchise, Lopez was focused on building systems. Inspired by The E-Myth Revisited, he used his college years to build out standardized processes that could be replicated across markets. This methodical approach laid the foundation for a franchise system that now spans over 100 awarded territories. The success of LIME Painting as a luxury home improvement franchise is also rooted in its culture. The company's values—Gratitude, Enthusiasm, Tenacity, Love, Integrity, Mission, Excellence, and Discipline—form the acronym GET LIME and serve as a compass for every team member and franchise partner. These values aren't tucked away in an employee handbook. They inform how the business shows up in every market and how it delivers what Lopez calls “happiness” to clients. The franchise's growth has not come without challenges. Lopez addressed current concerns around supply chain volatility, shifting immigration policies that affect labor availability, and ongoing changes in product regulations. These complexities are part of what makes the model so valuable. LIME's ability to navigate external pressures while maintaining high standards is a direct reflection of its disciplined structure and strategic foresight. Lopez credits much of LIME's operational success to recognizing his own role as a visionary. By building a team of integrators and leaders who execute the brand's mission at every level, he's ensured the company remains agile and focused. This clarity has allowed LIME to grow without losing sight of the customer or the culture that defines its brand. The customer experience isn't a marketing tagline at LIME Painting—it's a measurable standard. From branded vehicles and professional uniforms to personalized touches like delivering key lime pie after project completion, every step reinforces the brand's premium identity. Clients aren't just hiring a painter; they're engaging a team that treats their property and their time with the highest level of professionalism. LIME Painting has positioned itself as the leading luxury home improvement franchise by addressing the gaps in an industry where high-end service was once rare. The brand's growth is proof that when value is clearly communicated and consistently delivered, scaling becomes a byproduct of trust and performance. Watch the full interview on YouTube.

In this episode, Dr. Vonda Wright sits down with the multifaceted Dr. Tiffany Moon, a board-certified anesthesiologist, entrepreneur, keynote speaker, twin mom, and author of the upcoming book Joy Prescriptions: How I Learned to Stop Chasing Perfection and Embrace Connection (May 2025). As the founder of Aromasthesia Candles, Three Moons Wine, and LeadHer Summit, Tiffany is also known for breaking barriers as the first Chinese American medical doctor featured on Real Housewives. Together, they dive into what it means to be an authentic woman in medicine and business, from dealing with online criticism to rejecting limiting labels like “influencer.” Dr. Moon shares wisdom on overcoming imposter syndrome, integrating work and life (not just “balancing” it), and shifting from scarcity to abundance through female mentorship and collaboration. The conversation also touches on the loneliness many successful women face, the myth of perfection, and how embracing authenticity is the most powerful prescription for joy. ••• Connect with Tiffany Moon: Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@tiffanymoonmd?lang=en Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tiffanymoonmd/?hl=en Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tiffanymoonmd/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tiffany-moon-md-fasa-06938455/ Website: https://www.tiffanymoonmd.com/ Joy Prescriptions Book: https://joyprescriptions.com/ ••• Make sure to follow Dr. Vonda Wright: Instagram: @drvondawright Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@vondawright Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drvondawright LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vonda-wright-md-ms-2803374 Website: http://www.DrVondaWright.com ••• If you enjoyed this episode, Subscribe to “HOT For Your Health” for more inspiring episodes.

His music publishing company, Druidcrest Music published the music for The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1973) and as a record producer, he co-produced the quadruple-platinum debut album by American band “Foreigner” (1976). American Top ten singles from this album included, “Feels Like The First Time”, “Cold as Ice” and “Long, Long Way from Home”. Other production work included “The Enid – In the Region of the Summer Stars”, “The Curves”, and “Nutz” as well as singles based on The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy with Douglas Adams and Richard O'Brien.

There's a version of you that came before this one. The one who didn't listen to her intuition. Who stayed in relationships she knew weren't right. Who kept her mouth shut to keep the peace. Who dimmed her light to make others comfortable. Who thought she had to be strong, unbothered, and bulletproof just to survive.That woman? She deserves your love. Not your shame. Not your judgment. Not your silence.She was doing her best with what she knew. With the patterns she hadn't yet seen. With the pain she hadn't yet named. With the wounds she carried like armour.In this week's episode, I speak to the importance of honouring her—not because we want to stay in her story—but because we need to thank her for getting us this far. And then, show her a better way.It's time to stop punishing the woman you used to be. It's time to love her. Forgive her. And let her rest. She doesn't need to run the show anymore. But she does need your compassion. Because without her, you wouldn't be here.And the woman you're becoming? She's watching how you treat the woman you once were.

You've seen her on Netflix's The Trust. Now get ready to hear the real story behind the scenes.In this episode of Real Talk, I sit down with Lindsey Anderson a keynote speaker, best-selling author, social media & sales strategist, and podcaster, to dive into what it really takes to turn social media visibility into sustainable revenue.Lindsey shares what it was like to be on Netflix (spoiler: the edits didn't tell the whole story), and how that experience ties into a bigger message: in both business and life, you have to let go of the edits and own your truth.

In this exclusive episode of The Voice of Retail podcast, host Michael LeBlanc interviews Karl Haller, Partner at IBM Consulting and leader of their retail and consumer products center of competency, ahead of his highly anticipated keynote presentation at Retail Council of Canada's STORE2025 conference on June 3rd.With nearly 30 years of retail experience at brands including Brooks Brothers, Tommy Hilfiger, and Karl Lagerfeld, Haller brings unique insights at the intersection of retail business and technology to one of Canada's premier retail events.Haller, who will take the main stage following fellow keynote speaker Ira Kalish, positions AI as "the biggest transformation that any of us have seen in our careers," comparing its significance to the advent of computing in the 1970s. While acknowledging the hype surrounding AI, he maintains that we're in the early stages of a fundamental shift in how retail operates—a message he'll expand upon at the STORE2025 conference.When discussing strategy during uncertain times, Haller advises retailers to focus on action rather than extensive planning: "If you've got a million dollars to spend, spend a million dollars on 100 MVPs. Don't spend a million dollars on an AI strategy project because it's going to be out of date by the time you've done it." He recommends scenario planning with clear indicators that can guide decision-making in unpredictable environments.Looking at retail formats, Haller notes that success isn't determined by format alone but by how retailers innovate within their sector. He highlights Walmart's nimble approach to technology implementation, PepsiCo's management of their extensive logistics network, and innovative approaches from companies like Unilever and Kroger.The conversation culminates with Haller identifying four under-appreciated retail technology trends:Expanding AI beyond words, pictures, and code to work with numerical data like SKU forecasting, potentially reducing forecast error rates to low single digitsIntegrating AI with other technologies like computer vision, IoT devices, robotics, biometrics, electronic shelf labels, and retail mediaDeveloping an "operating system for AI" to manage the projected billion new applications by 2028Most critically, bringing people along on the technology journey through comprehensive training and continuous learningAttendees of STORE2025 can expect Haller to dive deeper into these insights during his keynote presentation, providing retail leaders with actionable strategies for navigating technological transformation while balancing innovation with practical implementatio Michael LeBlanc is the president and founder of M.E. LeBlanc & Company Inc, a senior retail advisor, keynote speaker and now, media entrepreneur. He has been on the front lines of retail industry change for his entire career. Michael has delivered keynotes, hosted fire-side discussions and participated worldwide in thought leadership panels, most recently on the main stage in Toronto at Retail Council of Canada's Retail Marketing conference with leaders from Walmart & Google. He brings 25+ years of brand/retail/marketing & eCommerce leadership experience with Levi's, Black & Decker, Hudson's Bay, CanWest Media, Pandora Jewellery, The Shopping Channel and Retail Council of Canada to his advisory, speaking and media practice.Michael produces and hosts a network of leading retail trade podcasts, including the award-winning No.1 independent retail industry podcast in America, Remarkable Retail with his partner, Dallas-based best-selling author Steve Dennis; Canada's top retail industry podcast The Voice of Retail and Canada's top food industry and one of the top Canadian-produced management independent podcasts in the country, The Food Professor with Dr. Sylvain Charlebois from Dalhousie University in Halifax.Rethink Retail has recognized Michael as one of the top global retail experts for the fifth year in a row, the National Retail Federation has designated Michael as on their Top Retail Voices for 2025, Thinkers 360 has named him on of the Top 50 global thought leaders in retail, RTIH has named him a top 100 global though leader in retail technology and Coresight Research has named Michael a Retail AI Influencer.

They're Not Buying the Product Hi Everyone, Carl Gould here your #70secondCEO, just over a minute of  investment per day for a lifetime of results. What Titan of industry or celebrity or performer or entrepreneur would you pay to go see? Or pay to travel to go see? Right, because that person or what they represent or their achievements or their value structure or what they're teaching or what they've learned, it's important to you. Right, it's valuable to you. But I'll tell you what, my daughter, my 10 year-old is not going to pay or travel to go and see Warren Buffett. She already has an old guy in her life, she doesn't need another one. That's what she would say. Right, however if I would allow her to go to see her favorite pop star, she'd pay for that, right. She'd empty the piggy-bank for that, “I'll go, I'll travel.” Right, because that's important to her. So, don't fall in love with the...quick story. I was going to take my daughter to her favorite pop star, right, the ticket was $75. An in-person handshake before the concert was $1,600! So what are we paying more for here folks? The music or the relationship with the brand? Ah ha, yeah, that's what I thought too. Alright so, we didn't go by the way. We chose another adventure for her birthday. We kind of considered doing it until she said, “I want to bring my friends.” Ha, ha no chance, not paying 10 grand for 4 handshakes, not gonna happen! Alright, I'll buy you plenty of downloads of music for that, but we're not going there. Right, so think about it again, think about falling in love with your customer, and giving your customer access to the products and services that would be meaningful to them. Like and follow this podcast so you can learn more. My name is Carl Gould and this has been your #70secondCEO.  

In this episode of The Self-Employed Life, I had the great pleasure of speaking with Annette Mason, sabbaticalist and Succession Architect at Trilogy Design Works. Annette shared how intentional sabbaticals can be powerful tools for self-employed individuals to regain clarity, spark creativity, and build sustainable success. We discussed the difference between a vacation and a sabbatical, how to structure one even while running a business, and the importance of designing time away with intention. Annette also introduced her framework of Compass, Maps, and Constellations to help people align with their values, plan with vision, and lean into the support systems around them. Annette uses her background in corporate innovation and personal experience with burnout in order to encourage others to rethink how we work and to embrace sabbaticals as a meaningful part of a resilient and fulfilling self-employed life. Annette Mason, Sabbaticalist and Succession Architect at Trilogy Design Work We help forward-thinking CEOs turn under-leveraged benefits-like flexible paid time off and sabbaticals-into strategic tools for building resilient people - individuals, teams, and organizations.

The 411 on Ageism & How To End It Faster I Janine Vanderburg   For the life of me, given the choice between a strong, more profitable business and letting go of the back-assward stigma around age, the logic is clear. But is it?    Like me, Janine Vanderburg isn't shy about why the math isn't mathing the business reasons why it's about impact not age..    Here's what you'll find out:  What employers don't want you to know  You think it's your resume that needs tweaking or  your interview techniques but What if the real obstacle was something entirely different? What if the system itself was rigged against you in ways you've never considered—not because you're not qualified, but because of your date of birth.  Who's impacted by ageism, or who isn't? When there's a problem like ageism in hiring, it "goes in both directions." As Janine Vanderburg reveals, we're not just talking about discrimination against those 40-plus. "Youngerism" is equally "alive and kicking." If you've been ghosted after interviews, if you've watched less qualified candidates get positions you were perfect for, it might not be you—it might be your birth year. Let's talk about the numbers they're not talking about Last year alone, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission received 16,000 complaints of age discrimination. When surveyed, over 80% of respondents believed they had experienced workplace age discrimination. Even more shocking: Resume Builder's surveys found hiring managers systematically screen out both applicants over 60 AND those under 27. And if you work with AI? 90% of hiring managers don't want to hire anybody over 35 for roles involving artificial intelligence—despite experienced professionals often being the best AI power users. Three Places Ageism Is Sabotaging Your Career (And What to Do About It) Inside your own mind: When you think "I'm too young/old for this position" before even applying In hiring practices: When recruiters make assumptions about your abilities based solely on graduation dates Embedded in systems: When AI screening tools filter you out before a human ever sees your application The Demographic Shift That Will Change Everything By 2030—just five years away—there will be more people over 65 than under 18. Companies unprepared for this reality will be scrambling for talent while others thrive. Will you be positioned to capitalize on this inevitable shift? What Smart Job Seekers Do Differently As Janine advises, "You can be willing to fight to end ageism, and you can also try to preserve your financial security." Both can be true at once. The wisest approach? Learn the unwritten rules, navigate the system strategically, and position yourself where your true value is recognized. Listen now to discover how to turn what looks like an obstacle into your greatest competitive advantage. Janine Vanderburg (https://www.linkedin.com/in/janinevanderburg/) is a Keynote Speaker, and Founder/Director of Changing the Narrative is the leading effort in the U.S. to change the way people think, talk and act about aging and ageism through evidence-based strategies and innovative public campaigns.

Last week, my daughter graduated from Loyola University Chicago. After years of watching her build a life—on the field, on the sidelines, in the center of the action—she's stepping into the real world. And like so many graduates right now, she's walking in with drive, uncertainty, and a digital footprint that started long before her first job offer.This episode is a message to her—and to every graduate who needs a little direction that's not sugarcoated. It's a life list. The same one I've given my own kids (sometimes more than once). The same one I use with clients in crisis.In this episode:The top three questions students (and parents) ask me after every keynoteWhy your degree matters less than how well you can read a roomThe habits and mindsets that actually keep reputations intactWhat to say in your first “I don't know what to do” moment at workAnd the one thing every Gen Z grad needs to hear—especially those shaped by the pandemic yearsThis is not motivational filler. It's a real list for the real world. Send it to your grad. Save it for your kid. Or come back to it when your own clarity runs low.Read the entire list here on my PR Breakdown Substack: What No One Tells New Grads About Crisis Communication (And Life) Want More Behind the Breakdown?

Today, on Notable Leaders' Radio, I speak with David Steele, Founder + CEO of One Wealth Advisors and co-founder and Executive Chairman of Flour + Water Hospitality Group He highlights how applying the principles of service, goal-setting, and valuing people has shaped his journey from financial planning to building successful restaurant groups and supporting arts organizations. In today's episode, we discuss: True business success is rooted in serving others, not just making profits, because when work benefits others, it leads to deeper happiness and long-lasting impact, meaning you can feel good about making a difference while growing your business. Skills and principles are transferable from one industry to another, as David demonstrates by applying the same collaborative and organizational strategies across finance, food, and the arts, so you're not stuck on one path and can reinvent yourself in new fields with confidence. Pivotal life changes often start with self-awareness and honesty about dissatisfaction, like David's shift from being a successful stockbroker to a more fulfilling (but initially less lucrative) fee-based financial planning career. The lesson? It's okay, and sometimes essential, to pivot, especially if your values aren't being met. Caring for your team's well-being, even at a short-term cost, pays off through loyalty, retention, and greater future success, as shown by David's choice to keep his executive team during tough times, so you can build a lasting, supportive company culture.   Guest Bio David Steele, Founder + CEO of One Wealth Advisors and co-founder and Executive Chairman of Flour + Water Hospitality Group My primary role is as the co-founder and CEO of One Wealth Advisors, where we help people simplify their lives and achieve financial goals through Financial Life Planning. I am also the co-founder and Executive Chairman of Flour + Water Hospitality Group and the co-founder and Managing Partner of Great Gold Hospitality Group. Additionally, I bring extensive expertise and a range of resources to small business consulting, primarily in, but not limited to, the hospitality space. Alongside my teams, we support clients in various aspects of business development and operations to help them achieve their goals and vision. The culinary, health, arts, and entertainment worlds are particularly important to me, as reflected in my advisory roles with Noise Pop, Brilliant Corners, Rad Restaurant Group and Folk Studios. While my background may suggest diverse interests, everything I do follows a consistent, disciplined approach: working collaboratively with partners and team members, setting clear goals, developing and executing strategic plans to achieve those goals, and continually monitoring results to ensure success.   Website/Social Links https://davidsteele.xyz/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-steele-76088a?   Belinda's Bio: Belinda Pruyne is a renowned Leadership Advisor, Executive Coach, Consultant, and Keynote Speaker recognized for her ability to transform executives, professionals, and small business owners into highly respected, influential leaders.

The Rolex Effect: Why Higher Prices Build Perceived Value Hi Everyone, Carl Gould here, your #70secondCEO, just over a minute of investment per day for a lifetime of results. We're talking about increasing your fees. Now wouldn't that be nice? Just take your prices and charge more? And you'll just make more money. Isn't that great? Well, you know what, it's actually necessary. We have been talking about not just being another penguin, about standing above, about being an expert, about differentiating yourself. Wel,l guess what? People judge your quality based on your fees. Think about it, I asked you the question, what's a better watch? A Timex or a Rolex? And some of you are like, “Timex, do they even make them anymore?” Like pretending you don't know. And then when I said, How about a Rolex? You all knew what that cost, “oh, $5000 well it depends on which one you get. How much are we blinging this one out Carl?” Now you can spend 15 or above. You all knew what the Rolex cost. But none of you could figure out what the Timex would cost. Right, because we are sold on brands that are higher in price. Apple, Mercedes Benz, Jaguar, Tiffany's, you know, Rolex, and other high-end brands. What makes them high end? How do you know they're as good as they claim? The reality is you don't! The way that you judge quality is based on their price.  Like and follow this podcast so you can learn more. My name is Carl Gould and this has been your #70secondCEO.

It's not always the big ruptures that create distance in a relationship.Sometimes, it's the tiny moments. The micro-misses. The everyday ways we unknowingly make our partner feel unseen, unimportant, or left out.In this episode, Steve and I talk about the slow burn of disconnection—what we call death by a thousand cuts—and how seemingly small behaviours can add up and quietly erode closeness over time.For Steve, it's when we're having a cuddle and the dogs jump in, and I start patting them instead. It might look harmless, but in that moment, he feels like something else just took priority. For me, it's when I'm mid-sentence and he glances at his phone or checks his watch.It sends the message—without words—that what I'm saying doesn't matter as much.We share how these moments land for us, what they actually mean underneath the surface, and how we're learning to own our impact, not just our intention.This isn't about getting it perfect. It's about being conscious of the little ways we disconnect… so we can choose to reconnect, again and again.If you've ever felt brushed off, dismissed, or like you're just not quite landing with your partner—this one will hit home.Big love,Kat & Steve xBuy my book, Authentic - coming home to your true self - AUS, EUR, USACoach with me 1:1 - Book a 20-minute call nowThe Good Life - sign up nowFree Wheel of Life Assessment - take the test nowSunday Meds - live event by the beach, June 22ndWrite into us - let us know what you want to hearwww.katjohn.com.auSupport the show

Choosing the right franchise can feel like navigating a maze with no clear path—and high stakes at every turn. With hundreds of opportunities and little transparency, would-be franchisees are often left to rely on sales pitches, outdated directories, or gut instincts. The result? Missed opportunities, mismatched investments, and costly mistakes that could have been avoided. For those serious about franchising, the need for a better way forward is urgent. That's where Ryan Zink steps in. With over 20 years of experience in the franchise world—including three private equity exits, co-founding Complete Nutrition, Franchise FastLane, and now leading as CEO of Franchise Sidekick—he's reshaping the franchise decision process from the ground up. His mission is simple: help more people buy the right franchise, reduce risk, and set them up for long-term success. Rather than focusing solely on selling brands, Zink has taken the buyer's perspective. The goal isn't just to match people with a franchise—it's to equip them with the tools, insight, and structure they need to make informed, confident decisions. At Franchise Sidekick, that means vetting brands against a 150-point checklist, assessing everything from leadership and support systems to profitability and scalability. It's not just about who's selling; it's about whether the opportunity is worth buying. This structured approach to the franchise decision process is designed to reduce friction and increase transparency. Zink highlights how most prospective franchisees don't know what questions to ask—or who to trust. They're stepping into a world where financials vary widely, support is inconsistent, and expectations are often misaligned. Franchise Sidekick offers a solution: a process that empowers buyers through education, data, and strategic matchmaking. Zink also emphasizes the importance of brand readiness. Not every franchise is built to scale—and many don't have the systems, leadership, or support to sustain growth. By working closely with franchisors, his team ensures that only brands meeting specific criteria are positioned in front of qualified buyers. That alignment is key: a great candidate with the wrong brand is a recipe for frustration on both sides. The conversation also touches on what makes a great franchisee—not just financially, but mentally. Zink points out that while many people want to be business owners, not everyone is ready to operate within the structure a franchise requires. Success in franchising comes from following the system, trusting the process, and staying accountable. The right candidate has clarity on their role, knows what they're looking for, and is willing to put in the work. In today's fast-paced franchise industry, where private equity is accelerating brand growth and more people are entering entrepreneurship than ever before, the need for structure and support has never been greater. Simplifying the franchise decision process is about more than efficiency—it's about creating lasting success. When people are matched with the right opportunity, backed by the right support, they're more likely to thrive—and so is the brand. Ryan Zink is doing more than helping people buy franchises. He's changing how the industry thinks about the decision itself. And for those ready to take the leap, the difference between guessing and knowing can define the entire journey.

Building a successful health and wellness franchise requires more than passion for personal well-being—it demands vision, systems, leadership, and the ability to scale while staying true to core values. Few people embody that balance better than Kyle Jones, CEO and Co-Founder of iCryo. Kyle Jones founded iCryo with a mission to elevate lifestyles through professional, affordable, and accessible personal health services. What began with a focus on cryotherapy has rapidly evolved into one of the world's largest and most recognizable names in the health and wellness franchise space. With over 200 locations open and ambitious plans to surpass a thousand units globally, iCryo's growth reflects the strength of a brand built on innovation, intentionality, and operational excellence. Jones' transition from collegiate athlete to CEO was fueled by a broader passion for total wellness. Initially pursuing a career in sports and exercise science, he quickly realized that recovery, mental wellness, and proactive health measures offered a much greater impact beyond athletics. That vision became the foundation for iCryo's expansive portfolio of services, offering everything from cryotherapy and compression therapy to IV infusions, regenerative medicine, and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. The rapid expansion of iCryo stands out in a competitive market increasingly saturated with wellness concepts. Rather than chasing trends, Jones and his team have remained agile and responsive, intentionally introducing new services based on three critical factors: scientific efficacy, market affordability, and public awareness. This forward-thinking strategy has enabled iCryo to stay ahead of industry shifts while maintaining high operational standards across its franchise system. Building a thriving health and wellness franchise at scale also meant mastering compliance and regulatory challenges. As the company expanded into medical services, Jones emphasized the importance of operating with full medical compliance, working closely with advisory boards and legal teams to ensure alignment with state-by-state healthcare regulations. The result is a franchise model that operates as both a welcoming, retail-friendly environment and a fully compliant medical facility. Culture has played a crucial role in iCryo's success. From day one, Jones has insisted on a “people first” philosophy, ensuring that team members, franchisees, and guests feel connected to a larger mission. Franchisees are not just business owners; they are partners who share a passion for wellness and a commitment to living out the brand's core values. This intentional focus on culture helps create consistency across hundreds of locations, allowing iCryo to scale without losing the personal touch that defines the brand. Scaling a health and wellness franchise at this level requires a new type of franchisee—one willing to invest, operate professionally, and engage actively with the brand's mission. iCryo's operators are all multi-unit owners, a reflection of the company's shift from a boutique wellness service to a professional, medically-integrated wellness destination. Kyle Jones emphasizes that success in franchising is not about simply signing agreements; it's about building relationships, aligning on vision, and growing with the brand over time. The commitment to continuous improvement is evident in how iCryo trains and supports its network. From weekly system-wide calls that foster real-time alignment to the establishment of franchise advisory committees that ensure feedback loops between the field and corporate leadership, iCryo has built infrastructure for sustainable growth. Operational manuals, brand standards, and educational platforms like iCryo University are designed to keep franchisees at the forefront of innovation while maintaining operational excellence. Community engagement remains a cornerstone of iCryo's strategy. Despite the global reach of the brand, every iCryo location is positioned as a local business, deeply connected to the neighborhoods they serve. Jones encourages franchisees to actively network within their communities, building authentic relationships with local groups, fitness clubs, schools, and business organizations to amplify their impact and brand loyalty. Kyle Jones' approach to building a health and wellness franchise highlights the critical blend of mission-driven leadership, strategic innovation, and operational discipline. His emphasis on culture, compliance, customer experience, and continuous evolution offers a blueprint for any entrepreneur or business leader looking to create lasting impact in a competitive market.

Bill Belichick has always been a master of control—on the field, in the press, and with his own narrative. But this episode examines how that carefully crafted reputation is unraveling, not because of a fumbled statement, but due to the outsize influence of his much-younger girlfriend, Jordan Hudson. A viral CBS interview, public statements blaming the media, and confusion about her expanding “professional” role—all illustrate a pattern where the desire to squash uncomfortable questions only fuels more curiosity and suspicion for the current UNC football coach. Using the latest PR missteps as a case study, the episode spotlights the danger of losing control over the story to someone whose only real credential is main character energy. When boundary issues and amateur crisis management collide, even New England legends risk getting steamrolled by bad optics. The tension between protecting privacy and inviting chaos gets put under the spotlight, challenging listeners to recognize when a message stops being strategy and starts becoming farce.In this episode:The real cost of outsourcing reputation management to someone with minimal experience and maximum influenceWhy blaming the media—and the audience—always backfires, no matter how famous you areHow losing internal boundaries blurs personal and professional roles, turning even legacy brands into tabloid fodderWant More Behind the Breakdown?
