Originally uploaded July 3rd, reloaded July 13th. Jeffrey Mosher welcomes Paul Moore, Director, Start Garden, Grand Rapids, MI. Welcome Paul, remind us about Start Garden and your "The 100"? 'The 100' has traditionally focused on early-stage startup ideas. What prompted Start Garden to redesign the competition to serve businesses at multiple stages of growth and connect them with different types of capital? This year's program brings together lenders, investors, grant makers, and corporate partners under one umbrella. How does that broader funding ecosystem create more opportunities for Michigan entrepreneurs? The competition now centers on an entrepreneurial “sprint” tied to a specific business milestone. Why is that approach valuable, and what kinds of measurable results are you hoping participants will achieve? Existing businesses are now a major part of the program, not just startups. How does this change expand the impact of The 100 for established companies looking to grow, hire, or scale operations? With more than $500,000 in potential funding opportunities, live funding announcements at Demo Day, and strong participation from underrepresented entrepreneurs, what role do you see The 100 playing in strengthening West Michigan's broader business and innovation economy? » Visit MBN website: www.michiganbusinessnetwork.com/ » Watch MBN's YouTube: www.youtube.com/@MichiganbusinessnetworkMBN » Like MBN: www.facebook.com/mibiznetwork » Follow MBN: twitter.com/MIBizNetwork/ » MBN Instagram: www.instagram.com/mibiznetwork/ Start Garden reimagines annual entrepreneur competition by adding funding partners, expanding reach beyond startups and boosting funding opportunities to more than $500,000 Applications opened June 1 for a revamped 100 with a bigger pipeline for business owners and capital providers and a new format (GRAND RAPIDS, MI) — Start Garden today announced a major evolution of The 100, its eight-year-old annual entrepreneur competition that has connected more than 800 Michigan founders with funding and community resources. For the first time, the organization is bringing together multiple capital providers to fund multiple types of businesses at different stages, a shift from the event's historical focus on new business ideas. With the addition of external partners, The 100 will up its funding opportunities to more than $500,000, introduce a "sprint" process, and expand the people giving out money at the culminating event, Demo Day. Joining Start Garden in the new iteration of The 100 is what the organization calls Capital Partners that will help support up to $500,000 in corporate contracts, loans, shared revenue agreements, venture capital, and, as before, small catalytic grants to entrepreneurs at every stage. The 2026 Capital Partners include: GROW (small business loans) Opportunity Ventures (shared revenue agreements) Union Heritage (venture capital) Meijer (first-customer contracts for food and consumer product companies) Start Garden (grants) Applications for The 100 open June 1 at 100.startgarden.com. The application is still as simple as recording a 100-second video, but now includes a brief explanation about what stage the business is at. Start Garden will also host three community pop-up events this summer, where entrepreneurs can submit pitches in person with assistance. 2026 Key Dates June 1 — Applications open at 100.startgarden.com July 12 — Submissions close (11:59 PM) July 21 — 100 semi-finalists announced August 7–9 — Mandatory Bootcamp at Start Garden, Grand Rapids August 10 — 50 finalists announced, sprint begins October 8 — Sprint ends, Executive Summaries due October 22 — Demo Day at Start Garden, Grand Rapids # # #

One family recipe has grown into one of the fastest-rising brands in ready-to-drink cocktails. Inspired by her mother's gin, lemonade, and mint summer cooler, Meredith Mills-Merritt founded The Original Southside with a vision to bring premium ingredients, elevated branding, and transparency to a category that had long prioritized convenience over craftsmanship. Leveraging her background in prestige beauty, she obsessed over every detail—from developing a proprietary gin to creating a cocktail that's certified organic, vegan, gluten-free, and 10% ABV. That attention to detail has fueled remarkable growth. Since launching in 2024, Southside has expanded into more than 20 markets, landed on shelves at Whole Foods and Total Wine, increased shipments by more than 370%, and continues its national expansion through Meijer, Rouses, and more than 90 additional Whole Foods locations. Beyond the product itself, Meredith is reshaping conversations around alcohol transparency as co-founder of the Clean Alcohol Collective, advocating for clearer ingredient standards across the industry.

Getting on shelf is not the win. Staying there is the business.  Rose Hamilton, CEO of Compass Rose Ventures and co-host of The Story of a Brand Show, sits down with Michael Marquis, CEO of Raw Sugar, for a masterclass in what retail really reveals about a brand.  With more than 20,000 doors across Target, Walmart, CVS, Walgreens, Meijer, Sally Beauty, Amazon, and DTC, Raw Sugar is one of the most compelling case studies in mass retail execution in the clean personal care space today. * Clean personal care at mass retail prices is not a tagline. It is an operating model. Raw Sugar launched as a Target exclusive with a deceptively simple belief: clean personal care should not cost more than conventional personal care. That mission drove every formula, fragrance, packaging, and supply chain decision the brand has ever made. * Operational execution comes before brand strategy. The first thing any retailer watches is whether you can supply product on time, in full, at consistent quality. Michael is direct: the worst thing a brand can do is win the shelf and then fail to fill it. * Retail compresses the truth. In DTC you can retarget, rewrite the landing page, and buy yourself more time. In retail the shelf does not care how hard you worked. The consumer either gets it in seconds or they don't. And the weekly scorecards come fast. * A restage is a consumer trust event, not a design project. When Raw Sugar evolved its packaging, the team knew that loyal consumers needed to recognize the brand, understand the change, and feel reassured rather than disrupted. Getting that choreography right is one of the most underestimated challenges in brand building. * Do not go too big too fast. Michael's sharpest advice for any founder heading into retail: hold back on the temptation to chase doors and scale before the brand is fully baked. Place is part of brand positioning. Make sure the channel is a logical extension of what the brand actually stands for. Join us in listening to this episode for one of the most practically useful retail conversations the show has ever produced. Rose and Michael cover shelf clarity, velocity, brand restaging, omnichannel discipline, and what it really takes to compete against the giants without acting like a smaller version of one. Whether you are already in retail or working hard to get there, this conversation will change how you think about the channel.  For more on Raw Sugar visit: https://rawsugarliving.com/ If you enjoyed this episode, please leave The Story of a Brand Show a rating and review.  Plus, don't forget to follow us on Apple and Spotify.  Your support helps us bring you more content like this!

Grok says: “In this episode of Randumb Thoughts, Darren dives headfirst into the moment AI stopped being a future concept and started showing up in your grocery cart. Fresh off a Meijer survey asking customers how they feel about AI comparing products, pre-filling shopping lists based on years of purchase data, and even handling checkout, he breaks down where the technology actually saves time (hello, never forgetting the pickles again) and where it crosses the line. He also shares how he used Amazon's AI during Prime Day to land a ridiculous Bitdefender deal and why he still won't let any algorithm spend his money without a human meatbag verifying the order. From there, Darren tackles the massive electricity demands of AI data centers, questions the sudden silence from the usual green crowd, and makes a strong case for running capable local AIs on your own hardware for real privacy. He walks through how AI is already transforming everyday work (including his own podcast production workflow for chapters, descriptions, and album art), demonstrates wild image-editing capabilities in Photoshop, and delivers a clear warning: these systems are excellent at pattern matching and photo manipulation, but they are not your therapist, financial advisor, or source of truth. Expect the usual unfiltered mix of practical tech talk, media criticism, listener stories, and value-for-value goodness.” Thanks for listening!

This week's US Open and Meijer LPGA Classic told the same story from opposite ends — Wyndham Clark grinding down a hostile Shinnecock crowd to win his second US Open, and Lottie Woad missing a two-footer with the Meijer title right there. Two world-class players, same moment: when the mind spirals, the body follows.That's exactly what we unpack in this episode. Grip pressure spikes, breathing gets shallow, and the stroke you've made 10,000 times suddenly feels foreign. This isn't just a mental breakdown — it's a physical one. And it's the SSWING sweet spot.The Improvement Pivot Point this week: Train Your Pressure Response, Not Just Your Swing. Most golfers practice when they're comfortable. But golf is played under pressure — and pressure changes your body. We break down how to build pressure reps into your routine, find your physical anchor, and train your movement patterns so deeply that when everything's on the line, your body already knows what to do.Because golf improvement isn't just about how you move on the range.

Pentecost and the Language of God Pastor Mark Havel Download John 7:37-39On the last day of the festival, the great day, while Jesus was standing there, he cried out, “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me; and let the one who believes in me drink. As the scripture has said, ‘Out of the believer's heart shall flow rivers of living water.'” Now he said this about the Spirit, which believers in him were to receive, for as yet there was no Spirit, because Jesus was not yet glorified. Christa and I spent a few days in Michigan and Northwest Ohio this week and laughed more than once about the colloquialisms, language, and accents of our people and of the places where we were raised: places and people who think mayonnaise and Miracle Whip are synonyms, I mean; people who say things like “Italian dressing;” and people who buy “pop” – not soda – at “Krogers” or at “Meijers.” I have disabused myself of a lot of that, although “pop” is and will always be “pop,” in my world.All of this is to say, I have language on the brain this Pentecost Sunday, and I wish I could speak more of them. My four years of high school and undergraduate minor in Spanish haven't lasted as long as they woulda, coulda, should have. I never did the much-needed “full-immersion” thing where I spent enough time living in and engaging with the culture of a people so that I could practice, speak, and learn that language, which is still more foreign to me than not.And I have traveled enough to regret my ignorance of and inability to speak other languages in very tangible, up close and personal ways. Of course, it would be nice to order the best food at restaurants and ask about and follow directions in a new city, but it would be most meaningful to communicate conversationally with people more deeply and more meaningfully, to worship, even, when traveling in other countries and cultures.Of course, I've noticed this most, over the years, in Haiti. There was a spell of about 18 months once, where I was in Fondwa three separate times, for a week at a clip, and, while I was nowhere near speaking Haitian Creole with any fluency, I did find that I could almost eavesdrop on conversations between my Haitian friends and just about make sense of, and anticipate discussions with, our translators as we lived and worked and spent time with our people there.And the hardest thing about this longing for language – the most convicting part of it all – is how so much of the rest of the world is at least bi-lingual; how, when I have traveled to places like Haiti, Mexico, Italy, Greece, Germany, and more, average bears in all of those places are able to speak my language – to engage me with patience and kindness and wisdom and generosity; how they're able – and so graciously willing – to meet me where I am and where I need them to be.Which is how I'm receiving the good news and invitation of Pentecost this time around: with that story from Acts and those tongues of fire and all of those languages, cultures, and nationalities ringing in my ears – along with Jesus' invitation to come to – and to become – living water for the sake of the world.See, I think our invitation as God's people – among so many other things – is to always be listening for and opening ourselves to the needs of the world around us. To not pretend that ours is the only way or the best way to do all the things. To remember – and to celebrate – that Jesus showed up for the sake of the world; that he very literally didn't speak our language; and that most of us here should approach him with deference and humility because we are utterly unfamiliar with the kind of life he lived – its poverty and low position in the grand scheme of the empire and power he so bravely, faithfully resisted, I mean.So, on this Pentecost Sunday, as we celebrate what many refer to as the birthday of Christ's Church in the world, and as we wonder about our call as wannabe followers of Jesus in that regard – and as a congregation of Partners in Mission, more specifically – I find myself wondering about the way we find ourselves looking beyond our own walls, into the hearts and minds, into the lives and longings of others, and speaking their language – if not literally, than spiritually … faithfully … lovingly … graciously – like Jesus did and like Jesus calls us to do, as believers from whom rivers of living water are supposed to flow.If you haven't seen the Greenfield Reporter article from yesterday yet, please check it out. They ran a lovely piece about the many places our most recent round of Building and Outreach grants will go. In addition to our continued support of Project Rouj, to build homes in Haiti, $45,000 are in the mail to places and people who live and speak very differently than we do in so many ways: impoverished communities of color in Louisiana, shelters and transitional housing ministries on the west side of Indy, recovery houses, rehab centers, and therapy for children with disabilities as far away as Guatemala.And you should know, if you haven't heard, that it appears our Summer Reading Program – with special invitation and encouragement for kids learning English – seems to really be happening. With a week and a half to go there are 11 kids signed up so far. And with last names like Perez, Garcia, Montalvan, and Mercano, we are all going to be speaking and learning and sharing grace in more ways and languages than just one around here. And I think it's going to be beautiful.And don't get me wrong. Let's not break our arms patting ourselves and each other on the back. We have plenty of work to do until there are at least as many Black and brown people joining us for worship on Sunday morning at 8:30 a.m. and 10:45 a.m., as there are those who show up to the food pantry on Wednesdays between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m.Which, again, for me, is at least part of the call of this Pentecost celebration and of the Pentecost season to come for us. It's about recognizing the scope of the Church's mission – our mission here at Cross of Grace and the mission of God's Church in the world, just the same. Our building project is about making room in a very literal way for more of God's children to join us here, to receive and to share the living water of grace so many of us have found in this place, with so many who don't know it exists. And the money our Building Fund's tithe will allow us to share to build homes in Fondwa, Haiti – each of which now includes a water cistern, by the way – will continue to share living water, literally – and so much more – with God's children in the poorest country in the western hemisphere.In addition to that, the General Fund commitments and the Time and Talent offerings I hope you're praying about increasing and adding to the mix next Sunday, will be continue to be used – not just for our own sake – but because we exist to love and serve our neighbor; and because the grace we proclaim, promise, and pour out in the waters of Holy Baptism around here, are for all people – ANYONE who is thirsty; and because when we do that in the spirit of Pentecost – when we get it right – we do it more faithfully than a lot of people feel comfortable and more graciously than enough churches feel called.My friend Jamalyn – who many of you know, too, as the founder of Project Rouj, the organization we support that builds all those houses in Haiti – she is fluent in Haitian Creole, having lived there for a couple of years, just out of seminary. I remember her saying once, on one of our trips to Fondwa, that it takes her a couple of days of being back in the country to feel like she's speaking fluently and communicating, in Creole, as fully as she likes; that it takes her a minute to get her bearings and back into the swing of it, but that she knows when that has happened, because she starts to dream in Creole.And I think that's just about the most beautiful, holy way to wonder about today's Pentecost good news: that we will know we're in the swing of it … that the Holy Spirit has hold of us … that we are speaking God's language … whether it's Haitian Creole, Spanish, German, Italian, or midwestern English … if and when we start dreaming in ways that inspire our capacity to understand, love, and serve all of God's children, wherever they may be and for whatever it is that they thirst.When we start dreaming about our longing to meet the needs of others before our own…When we start dreaming about ways God's kingdom can come alive among us and flow through us – not just for us – like so much living water…So that our generosity of time, talent, and treasure; our desire to worship, learn, and serve turns God's Church – and Cross of Grace as part of it – into nothing more and nothing less than a vessel for the very Holy Spirit of God's love, for the sake of the world, in Jesus' name.Amen

What if the anxiety, overthinking, people pleasing, emotional shutdown, hypervigilance, burnout, and relationship struggles you experience today… were never actually "you" to begin with? In this deeply personal and profoundly eye-opening solo episode, Darin Olien dives into the hidden nervous system programming formed between the ages of 0 and 8 that silently shapes our adult lives. Drawing from neuroscience, trauma research, attachment theory, epigenetics, somatic healing, and his own emotional breakthroughs, Darin explores how childhood experiences become subconscious operating systems that influence everything from relationships and stress responses to chronic disease and self-worth. This episode is a powerful roadmap toward healing. Darin breaks down the science behind trauma, the ACE study, nervous system dysregulation, emotional patterning, and neuroplasticity, while also sharing practical tools like somatic experiencing, expressive writing, EMDR, and Internal Family Systems to help listeners begin rewiring their emotional lives from the inside out. What You'll Learn How childhood experiences program the nervous system Why most adult emotional reactions are subconscious survival patterns The connection between trauma, stress hormones, and chronic disease How the nervous system stores emotional experiences in the body Why people pleasing, hypervigilance, burnout, and emotional shutdown develop The science behind neuroplasticity and rewiring the brain What the ACE Study revealed about childhood trauma and adult health How trauma impacts the amygdala, hippocampus, and stress-response systems Why emotional patterns are adaptations, not character flaws How epigenetics can pass trauma responses across generations The role of somatic experiencing in trauma healing Practical tools for emotional regulation and nervous system repair

They are not your identity. They are not permanent. And through awareness, somatic healing, emotional processing, nervous system regulation, and conscious repetition, those deeply rooted patterns can be rewritten into something healthier, freer, and more aligned with who you truly are."

What does it really mean to lead at the highest level in the automotive industry today?In this episode, Jan Griffiths sits down with Phil Biggs, the man quietly trusted by more than 100 CEOs across automotive and beyond. Known as the “CEO whisperer,” Phil has spent nearly a decade creating a confidential space where leaders can speak openly about the pressure, uncertainty, and responsibility that comes with the top job.And one thing is clear: leadership has changed.The old command-and-control model is breaking under the weight of constant disruption. Tariffs. Supply chain shocks. AI. Workforce shifts. EV uncertainty. The pressure never stops.
