Send us a textReady to grow your voice without chasing vanity metrics? We sit down with Duncan Bhaskaran Brown—author, speaker, and unapologetic Morris dancer—to unpack how small, aligned audiences can move the needle more than massive but passive ones, and why guesting early and often builds skill, credibility, and genuine reach. Duncan's journey from overindulgence to helping people rewire habits gives him a rare blend of empathy and edge. He shares how a playful hook makes you relatable, how to turn interviews into research that benefits listeners, and why your “ordinary” insights might be exactly what someone needs to hear today.We explore hosting and guesting from both chairs: the shift from rigid question lists to guided, human conversations; how to ask questions that spark fresh thinking instead of rehearsed talking points; and a simple production mindset that favours incremental upgrades over perfection. Duncan breaks down the art of resilient outreach, the value of showing up for smaller shows, and the compounding return of being kind—you never know who someone knows or who they'll become. You'll also pick up smart, practical tactics: prepare out loud, make your CTA unforgettable with a short domain, and design segments that keep pace without sacrificing depth.Along the way, Duncan shares a teaser about a future Guinness World Record and why embracing personal stories—yes, even Morris dancing—can illuminate serious topics like sobriety, community, and joy. Whether you're levelling up your pitch, refreshing your format, or just getting started, this conversation gives you tools to grow your authority while staying human.

Are you settling for a “make it work” marriage when you could build an extraordinary one?Most couples drift into survival mode—roommates, not lovers—because they've never seen an amazing marriage modeled… and no one taught them the skills. In this episode, Greg & Rachel Denning share how to raise your marriage standard, resolve conflict fast (the “anatomy of an argument”), and build a shared vision that turns everyday life into marital bliss—without pretending problems don't exist.Big idea: If you're not deliberately working on your marriage, you're automatically working on your divorce.You'll learn how to stop the same old fights, praise small efforts to reinforce positive change, schedule what matters (yes, intimacy!), and use the compound effect to transform your relationship. Whether things are tough or “fine,” these tools help you move from okay → incredible so your kids grow up with healthy models of love.What you'll learnRaise the standard: Why “make it work” is too low a target—and how high expectations create more happiness.Anatomy of an argument: Resolve conflicts quickly (not fake fixes) and stop weaponizing old grievances.Shared vision: Practical steps to get on the same page even if personalities and goals differ.Reinforce progress: Praise small attempts (date night invites, thoughtful gestures) so they happen more often.Schedule what matters: How planning creates space for connection & intimacy—instead of constant friction.Compound effect: The habits you invest in today build your legacy tomorrow.Key Takeaways✅ If you aren't intentionally improving your marriage, you're unintentionally degrading it.✅ High standards produce higher joy and better outcomes.✅ Conflict ≠ contention—you can disagree respectfully and resolve fast.✅ Model love for your kids by prioritizing the relationship at home.✅ Small, consistent actions compound into an extraordinary marriage.Chapters00:00 The Importance of Marriage02:56 From Mediocre to Extraordinary05:53 Setting High Expectations for Marriage08:25 Conflict Resolution in Marriage11:51 Self-Sabotage in Relationships16:43 Creating Mental Space for Intimacy18:16 The Importance of Retreats for Couples18:49 Investing in Marriage: The Compounding Effect20:28 Breaking Generational Patterns in Relationships22:17 Creating a Shared Vision for the Future22:44 Raising the Standard in Marriage24:36 The Role of Coaching in Relationship Growth27:04 The Value of Investing in Your MarriageMemorable Quotes

Ryan & Becca dig into a listener's question about what to do when your big, higher-priced pieces stop selling—and you don't want to pivot into teaching. We talk honestly about adapting to shifts in the buying market while staying true to your creative voice, making smaller or different work without feeling like you're selling out, and share real strategies for makers who want to keep making and selling what they love, even when the market changes.Maker of the MomentAshley Gaylord - @ashley.g.potteryBrad & Jess - @elmstonestudioListeners QuestionsOn this episode:I've made a flan dish with grogged cone 6 clay plus glazed it at cone 6 and have done tests cooking vegetable quiche and have had no cracks. I would love to know more about cookware as I have just made a small frying pan, but I don't think I can glaze that with the expansion rates of the clay and glaze? I'm in the UK and my pottery supplier really can't help. Have you both had any experience with making your own cookware? As I'm finding it very exciting to have dishes and pans that I can use in my own home. Many thanks Melanie @handthrownpotteryResource: https://ceramicmaterialsworkshop.com/podcastepisode/episode-86-how-do-you-make-ceramic-bakeware/The past year I've seen a sharp, and I mean SHARP drop off in sales of my big pieces (I used to sell at least 3-5 big, sculptural vases per market and now it's zero) I've had to pivot to making more small, cheaper things. Might be a good topic for the podcast, how we adapt to changes in the buying market. The first thing people always suggest is alternate income streams (ie teaching etc), but I'd love to hear more of what people like me are doing, who have no interest in teaching, to be able to keep making and selling their work. @revisioniststudioSponsorsL&L Kilns - The durable kiln that potters trust to fire evenly & consistently.

In this episode, I sit down with Natalie Harvey, secondary principal at Beijing City International School (BCIS), to explore how her team is shifting culture around student agency while still honoring the demands of a rigorous curriculum. From co-creating a three-year vision to redefining personalization in the International Baccalaureate (IB) framework, Natalie shares the intentional moves that are making voice and choice a lived experience—not just a buzzword.

Send us a text! (add your email to get a response)Distance makes the heart grow fonder—or does it? In this episode, we explore long-distance relationships and what the research actually shows about couples who love across miles. We share our own varied experiences with long-distance love—from casual dating situations to serious commitments. Different relationship styles and personal attachment patterns dramatically impact how well distance works. Low-jealousy partners may thrive while anxious attachment can transform distance from challenging to excruciating.Communication presents unique hurdles when you're apart—text messages lose tone, calls require scheduling, and the spontaneity of everyday connection disappears. We identify creative strategies that help bridge the gap. The ultimate question emerges: is long-distance simply pressing pause on your relationship, or can it actually strengthen your connection in ways proximity never could?Whether you're contemplating a period apart from your partner or currently navigating the challenges of loving from afar, w e explore how to maintain connection when miles separate you from the one you love—and when to know if the distance might actually be revealing deeper relationship incompatibilities.Support the showIf you have a loved one with mental or emotional problems, join KulaMind, our community and support platform.

In this episode, I was lucky enough to interview Jason Shafton, CEO and founder of Winston Francois.Jason shares his journey from growing up in a family of entrepreneurs in Chicago to becoming a growth and marketing consultant for tech startups. Inspired by his parents' business ventures in high-end audio equipment, Jason developed an early passion for business, launching a small airplane-selling stand as a child and later a record label in high school. His career took him from Google to leadership roles at Comedy Central, Headspace, and various startups before organically transitioning into consulting. What began as informal advising soon turned into a full-time business as demand for his expertise grew, leading him to establish Winston Francois—a firm offering fractional CMO and growth leadership services.Jason explains how Winston Francois differentiates itself in the crowded world of growth consulting by leveraging deep operational experience in venture-backed startups and major tech firms. His first paying client, Modern Animal, exemplifies this approach, as he helped scale the tech-first veterinary service while continuing to work with them over time. Reflecting on his journey, Jason emphasizes the importance of defining an ideal customer early on, a lesson learned through trial and error. While his personal brand currently drives much of Winston Francois' visibility, he hopes the company's reputation will grow independently. Take a seat and listen to Jason Shafton's story which highlights the power of relationships, strategic positioning, and staying adaptable in an evolving market in this episode of The First Customer!Guest Info:Winston Francoiswinstonfrancois.com or wf.team/podJason Shafton's LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jasonshafton/Connect with Jay on LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jayaigner/The First Customer Youtube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@thefirstcustomerpodcastThe First Customer podcast websitehttps://www.firstcustomerpodcast.comFollow The First Customer on LinkedInhttp://www.linkedin.com/company/the-first-customer-podcast/

When your gut is messed up, your head is messed up. I know this first hand because the reality is I've never been the same since I had colorectal cancer. I battled years of gut issues, discomfort, and pain. I've tried everything you can think of but nothing has worked as well as the Carnivore Diet. It's been a game-changer and a life-saver. For those who don't know, the Carnivore Diet is meat only. Now, I know what you're thinking – all meat, no vegetables? It may sound crazy, but trust me, the benefits are undeniable and I have the blood results to prove it. My cholesterol dropped 20% in 30 days and after 11 months, it has been the single best health hack I have used in 10 years.Dan has been on the Carnivore Diet for 6 months and experienced amazing results including losing 20lbs (which greatly relieved the pain from his arthritis). With the carnivore diet and stem cell treatments, Dan's tendons are being regenerated. You can see all these benefits when you look at him, and he is 80 years old! Here are three ways the Carnivore Diet could help you:Goodbye, Gut Issues: Since ditching carbs and embracing meat, my gut problems have vanished. No more embarrassing dashes to the bathroom or feeling bloated and uncomfortable.Mental Clarity and Energy: The brain fog is gone, replaced with sharp focus and sustained energy throughout the day. I no longer need those afternoon naps to power through.Weight Loss and Lean Muscle: The pounds melted away, revealing visible abs I haven't seen in years! Plus, we've noticed an increase in lean muscle mass. TIME STAMPS[0:00 - 1:00] The Carnivore Diet: If you're struggling with gut issues like me, or just want to feel better and sharper, this diet could be your answer. It's about simplifying what you eat – meat and water, that's it. You'd be surprised how amazing you feel when you cut out all the processed junk.[1:00 - 3:00] Fueling Your Body: My routine is pretty straightforward: a New York strip steak in the morning, another at noon, and maybe one more if I'm hungry later in the day. It keeps me energized all day long, no more afternoon slumps! My cravings are completely gone. I no longer crave snacks or chips or other junk throughout the day.[3:00 - 5:00] Seeing the Results: The changes I've seen are incredible. My cholesterol dropped, my mental focus sharpened, and I'm no longer battling those annoying gut problems. Plus, I lost weight you can see in my face, and I even have visible abs! That inflammation melts away. [5:00 - 7:00] Making It Work for You: Listen, it's not about being perfect. You can have some shrimp or fish if you're out, but try to stick to meat as much as possible. Buy organic, grass-fed beef and trustworthy butchers. Figure out what works best for your body. And don't worry about traveling, it's easier than you think to stay on track.[7:00 - 10:00] More Than Just a Diet: Results are results. I have been on the carnivore diet for 11 months, and Dan has been on it for 6 months. We have both experienced weight loss, improved mental clarity and better blood test results. No cravings. Better cholesterol. We look better and we feel better. The carnivore diet is a no-brainer for us.
