Terrie Cooper spent 25 years working on the forever-protection of Door County land with the Door County Land Trust, co-authoring $30 million in state and federal land acquisition grants and helping the organization grow from 1,000 protected acres when she began to more than 10,000 today. She retired in October 2024 and, in May 2025, received the 2025 Harold “Bud” Jordahl Lifetime Achievement Award from Gathering Waters, Wisconsin's Alliance for Land Trusts.

Drawing on insights from his work in hospice care and financial independence advocacy, Dr. Grumet challenges the notion that physicians are profit-driven, emphasizing that purpose, not money, sustains medical practice. He cites the Harvard Adult Development Study, which shows interpersonal connections, not wealth, drive happiness, and argues that physicians persist through burnout due to a deep sense of purpose. To counter third-party exploitation by pharmaceutical companies, insurance firms, and private equity, he advocates for “shared storytelling” to close the intimacy gap between providers and patients. By sharing personal struggles publicly through blogs, podcasts, and poetry, physicians can rebuild allyship with patients, fostering a healthcare revolution to demand legislative change. Dr. Grumet's upcoming book, set for release in September 2025, explores these themes, urging providers to humanize their profession.Three Actionable Takeaways:Share Personal Stories Publicly – Use blogs, podcasts, or public speaking to share the emotional challenges of medicine, fostering empathy and trust with patients outside the exam room.Reframe Physician Motivation – When accused of being profit-driven, highlight data showing most physicians earn minimal pharmaceutical payments (less than $1,000 annually), emphasizing purpose over profit.Advocate for Systemic Change – Unite with patients to push for legislative reforms that curb third-party exploitation, such as insulin price caps, to improve healthcare access and affordability.About the Show:The Physician's Guide to Doctoring covers patient interactions, burnout, career growth, personal finance, and more. If you're tired of dull medical lectures, tune in for real-world lessons we should have learned in med school!About the Guest:Dr. Jordan Grumet is a board-certified internal medicine and hospice physician, also known in financial independence circles as Doc G. He is the author of Taking Stock: A Hospice Doctor's Advice on Financial Independence, Building Wealth, and Living a Regret-Free Life and The Purpose Code: How to Unlock Meaning, Maximize Happiness, and Leave a Lasting Legacy. His upcoming book, set for release in September 2025, explores third-party exploitation in healthcare and the power of shared storytelling. A blogger, poet, and speaker, he advocates for purpose-driven medicine to restore public trust.LinkedIn: http://linkedin.com/in/jordan-grumet-38a506179Website: https://jordangrumet.com/Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/ng/podcast/earn-invest/id1440355498About the host:Dr. Bradley Block – Dr. Bradley Block is a board-certified otolaryngologist at ENT and Allergy Associates in Garden City, NY.

Toni Westland joined the federal workforce as a ranger with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers giving lock and dam tours on the Mississippi River. She then had a stint in north Georgia at Lake Lanier, then moved on to Lake Okeechobee and then Manatee Park in East Fort Myers. At some point she had vacationed on Sanibel Island so knew she loved the J.N. “Ding” Darling Wildlife Refuge, so when the opportunity arose in 2002 for her to join their team as an education specialist, she jumped on it and has been at Ding Darling ever since. Now, she's taking an early retirement as part of the federal government's downsizing DOGE efforts.

What does it take to build a business that truly lasts? In this episode of Bridging the Gap, Todd Weyandt sits down with visionary business leader John Abrams to explore legacy in construction leadership and how employee ownership is helping reshape the future of the industry. From founding one of the nation's earliest worker cooperatives to mentoring a new generation of leaders, John shares hard-earned wisdom on how to leave a purposeful and enduring mark in construction. They also discuss his latest book, From Founder to Future, which offers a roadmap for building businesses centered on values, longevity, and democratic decision-making. If you're thinking about your own leadership legacy in construction, this episode offers practical insights on culture, hiring, ownership, and succession. About Our Guest John Abrams is Co-Founder of South Mountain Company and Abrams + Angell. John is a visionary business leader, author, and pioneer in employee ownership. John co-founded South Mountain Company, an architectural building and solar firm that became one of the first worker cooperatives in the U.S. setting a gold standard for purpose driven business in construction. He now mentors others on creating lasting impact through democratic ownership. His latest book, From Founder to Future, is a roadmap for building companies with an enduring integrity.   Todd Takes Culture doesn't just happen—it's built on purpose. If you want a strong, healthy company culture, it takes daily, intentional effort. It means aligning your values with your decisions and walking the walk, not just talking the talk. Culture should be something you actively shape, not something you inherit or hope works itself out. Hiring isn't a race—it's a responsibility. The best teams come from hiring slowly and with purpose. When you prioritize values, character, and long-term fit over speed or resume flash, you end up with people who strengthen—not strain—the culture you're trying to build. Trust grows when everyone gets a seat at the table. Some of the best solutions come from opening up tough questions to the whole team. When people are invited to help solve problems and shape decisions, trust deepens and ownership expands—because everyone feels like their voice actually matters.

Most family businesses don't survive beyond three generations. Less than 3% make it to the fourth. Why? Because growing a business and sustaining a family at the same time is an incredibly complex challenge. In this episode of Leadership That Sells, I sit down with Charlie Likewise, business veteran and author of The Power of Legacy, to uncover the secrets to long-term family business success. Charlie breaks down the three biggest decision-making areas that determine whether a family business thrives or fails: purpose, direction, and legacy. We explore how generational engagement plays a crucial role in succession planning, why governance is often misunderstood, and the steps every family business leader should take to ensure continuity across generations. If you're leading a family business and want to secure its future, this episode is packed with actionable insights. How to build a lasting family business legacy: Define your purpose. Align the family and business around a clear mission to guide decision-making. Engage the next generation early. Start succession planning long before leadership transitions are needed. Build strong governance. Establish clear structures for decision-making without stifling family relationships. Prepare for tough conversations. Conflict is inevitable—having open discussions prevents crisis-driven decisions. Think long-term. Avoid short-term gains that could compromise the business's future sustainability.

Nicole, a global agro-ecologist, educator and systems thinker, has been working with VicNoTill to share knowledge about regenerative ag for more than a decade. In this episode, current president Michael Gooden talks to Nicole about how regenerative ag is a system, not an input and how people's awareness has exploded about the critical role healthy soils play in our lives.For Nicole, regenerative ag is an approach which enhances natural cycles, repairs ‘disturbance' events, minimises harmful inputs and focuses on building resilience, microbial life and organic matter. She loves that it's not a scripted list of what you can't do. "As a farmer-led approach, a regenerative system encourages local innovation. Transitioning broadacre crops towards low-input, increased efficiency systems offers one of the largest opportunities for farmers, land, communities and profits."VicNoTill is thrilled to host the Integrity Soils CREATE Down Under program, which is coming to Australia for the first time, on our board member Callum Lawson's regeneratively-managed farm in Victoria. CREATE is a 34-week intensive agroecological coaching program that is creating the next generation of soil health educators. Applications open on 1 May, 2025.The program starts with an eight-day intensive in September after the VicNoTill annual conference. Places are limited.

Jim chats with Dr. Jordan Grumet, AKA: Doc G. to explore the themes of entrepreneurship, financial independence, and the FIRE movement. Follow along as we discuss the journey from following traditional career paths to pursuing passions, and the importance of purpose over mere financial goals. Doc G shares insights from his personal experiences as a hospice physician turned blogger, podcaster, and author. He emphasizes the need for a balanced approach to life that integrates purpose, happiness, and financial wellness. Doc G shares his concepts of meaning and purpose, emphasizing the importance of personal narratives in shaping our happiness. He distinguishes between Big P and Little P purposes, advocating for a more process-oriented approach to fulfillment. Discover the significance of community and connection in achieving happiness, and how to address the common anxiety surrounding one's search for purpose. Ultimately, Doc G encourages listeners to engage in activities that light them up, suggesting that true fulfillment comes from enjoying the process rather than fixating on audacious goals.GUEST BIO: Doc G's interest in becoming a doctor ignited when his father, an oncologist, died unexpectedly in the prime of life. This profound and life-shaping boyhood loss compelled him to dedicate his early career to the art of medicine. He was an Assistant Professor, first at Northwestern University and then at The University of Chicago. He has been a medical director of several nursing homes, started multiple palliative care programs in extended care facilities, and is an associate medical director for a hospice provider. After shaping his personal finance plan around the FIRE (Financial Independence Retire Early) movement, Doc G began a new chapter by becoming semi-retired by the age of 45. Today in addition to his work as a hospice doctor, he intertwines medical insight and financial wisdom in writing and speaking engagements that explore the topics of wealth, abundance, and financial independence to help people live meaningful lives. He publishes the Earn and Invest podcast about personal finance and wellness, and has also run several small businesses including a concierge medical practice, an online art gallery, and is the author of two books, including his latest The Purpose Code, How to Unlock Meaning, Maximize Happiness, and Leave a Lasting Legacy, published in January 2025.Connect & Learn Morehttps://jordangrumet.com/https://www.earnandinvest.com/The Purpose Code – How to Unlock Meaning, Maximize Happiness, and Leave a Lasting Legacyhttps://amzn.to/4hizM6BTaking Stock – A Hospice Doctor's Advice on Financial Independence, Building Wealth, and Living a Regret-Free Lifehttps://amzn.to/4kOj2HtRESOURCESHappiness = Freedom + Meaningfulness on RVE #383https://therventrepreneur.com/rve383/Early Retirement Nowhttps://earlyretirementnow.com/The Skeptic's Guide to FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early)https://nickwolny.com/financial-independence-guide~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~THE RV ENTREPRENEURhttps://therventrepreneur.com~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Join the RVE community on Facebook!⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/therventrepreneurcommunity⁠Connect with RVE on all your favorite socials⁠https://therventrepreneur.com/connect⁠⁠Got questions or comments for our hosts?

There are plenty of ‘mainstream' ways to invest in real estate … But sometimes the most rewarding—and lucrative—opportunities come from thinking outside the box! For Frank & Sherri Candelario, shared housing wasn't just an investment strategy. It was a solution they needed in their own lives.

When we live with this divine order—Presence, Purpose, Plans, Perseverance, and People—we don't just leave behind souvenirs or trophies, but a true legacy that impacts generations to come.

Mitch Harper and Matt Baiamonte discuss Tom Holmoe's decision to retire after 20 years.

Key Takeaways: The Long Game Wealthy families know that building wealth takes time. Instead of chasing quick profits, they focus on long-term goals that grow their money steadily and securely over years, even decades. Power of Compounding Compounding is like a snowball rolling downhill—it gets bigger as it grows. Wealthy investors reinvest their earnings so that their money earns more money over time, creating a cycle of growth. Strategic Debt Usage Instead of selling valuable assets for cash, wealthy people often use loans (debt). This allows them to keep growing their investments while accessing money when needed, often saving on taxes too. Focus on Scarce Assets Wealthy investors prioritize rare and valuable assets like real estate and Bitcoin. These investments resist inflation, meaning they hold or even increase their value as time passes. Tax Efficiency By holding onto investments for a long time, wealthy families pay less in taxes. This keeps more money working for them and helps their wealth grow faster over time.
