Shazi Visram is the founder of HealthyBaby, the first-ever EWG-certified babycare brand.Shazi has always been on the mission to give every child the healthiest start to life. Born to immigrant parents and raised in a motel in Alabama, she learned early what grit, sacrifice, and resilience really look like. After earning her MBA from Columbia, Shazi launched Happy Family with a homemade recipe and a bold idea to revolutionize baby food. She grew it into the #1 organic baby food brand in the U.S. and sold it to Groupe Danone but her story didn't stop there.

We talk about the decision to sell the company, the turning point of her son's diagnosis, and how it sparked her next mission with HealthyBaby. Along the way, she shares many lessons from decades in business, insights on leadership, and her belief that anything is possible when you challenge the status quo and lead from your authentic self. We talk about letting go of perfection, prioritizing well-being, and building with heart. Whether you're a parent, an entrepreneur, or someone who believes business can be a force for good, Shazi's story will leave you inspired to fight for the future you believe in.In this episode, we'll talk to Shazi about:* Resilience is key to overcoming life's challenges.

PRESS REVIEW – Thursday, June 12: In Syria, women are now obliged to wear fully-covering burkinis to the beach. Also, there's "simmering discontent" about Syria's Committee for Civil Peace. A new post-Brexit deal is agreed between the UK and Spain over Gibraltar. In France, a duo that faked 18th-century furniture is found guilty of forgery. Finally, designer dogs might not be as cute as they seem. In Syria, women are now obliged to wear burkinis to public beaches. Burkinis are garments that cover the whole body, head to toe. British daily The Times writes that "Liberals fear setback" after the new regulation. This would mean Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa imposing a strict interpretation of Islam in the country, The Times says. The former al Qaeda commander toppled longtime leader Bashar al-Assad in December, promising that "Syria will not deeply intrude on personal freedoms" – a promise met with scepticism, the paper writes.  Elsewhere in Syria, discontent is simmering among some supporters of the uprising against the country's ousted dictator. The New York Times writes about Syria's Committee for Civil Peace – a newly founded group cooperating with former Assad supporters to "restore calm". But supporters of the uprising against Assad regime accuse the new leaders of not holding the old regime to account. One source told The New York Times that many of them were hoping for "punishment of those who committed war crimes". The committee, however, says it's working to de-escalate tensions with Syria's minorities. But instead, the paper says it re-opens a simmering dilemma – "how to achieve justice and reconciliation in a population that endured decades of violent repression". Next, a post-Brexit deal has been reached over the future of the British overseas territory of Gibraltar. The British daily The Guardian writes that the deal between the UK and Spain is historic. Gibraltar is a disputed territory, located at the bottom of Spain. The new deal will make travel across the border with Spain much easier, with no land border checks. That's good news for the 15,000 people who cross the border every day. Many of them live in Spain but work in Gibraltar. The Times of London asks whether the deal is a "post-Brexit success", four years in the making. It could repair rocky relations, says the article, but it will be "closely scrutinised by Eurosceptics". Spanish daily El Periodico writes that "on paper" the deal puts an end to old disputes. With the fence finally demolished, Gibraltar will be more part of Spain and its territory will be "less alien" to Spanish people. It calls the deal a "moral victory" for Spain and a "concession" from the British side. De facto sovereignty, however, remains British, the paper reminds us.  In France, a multimillion-euro furniture scam has been punished. The Guardian headlines "French furniture expert and restorer guilty of fake 18th-century chair scam". The two men faked furniture, including chairs, and claimed they were used by historic figures like Marie Antoinette before selling them for huge sums. The Guardian calls it "one of the biggest forgery scandals to hit the French art world for decades". The two men scammed a Qatari prince and – most notably – the Palace of Versailles. French daily Le Télégramme writes that the "two genius forgers were convicted". Bill Pallot, the art expert in question, was sentenced to four years in prison, mostly suspended, and will have to pay a €200,000 fine. During the trial, he said: "We thought we'd do it for fun, to see if the art market could see (...). It went like clockwork". In its headline, Le Parisien uses his nickname - "le Père la chaise" - a wordplay on the famous Parisian cemetery. The nickname literally means "the father chair" or the father of chairs. Pallot got that nickname after writing a book about seats and chairs of the 18th century. That's where he got his chair expertise from, before committing the scam.  Finally, designer dogs aren't as great as they seem, according to a new study. British daily The Telegraph says that researchers found that some popular dog breeds such as miniature poodles are more likely to experience acute diarrhoea. All designer dogs are in fact 34 percent more likely to have this issue, according to the study.   You can catch our press review every morning on France 24 at 7:20am and 9:20am (Paris time), from Monday to Friday.

Today, we're pulling back the curtain with Hudson Santana, a powerhouse developer and agent whose team closes $150 million a year in the heart of Boston. Hudson's journey is anything but typical. Growing up in the Amazon in Brazil, he made his way to Boston, started out bartending, and—thanks to a push from his wife—jumped into real estate. What sets Hudson apart isn't just his volume, but also his knack for seeing potential where others see only what's in front of them.In this episode, Hudson shares how he built his business by becoming a master of spotting hidden value in properties, diving deep into zoning, and leveraging local knowledge to unlock profit others overlook. We get tactical about how you can start thinking like a developer—no deep pockets required—and how becoming the local expert on what's possible (not just what exists) changes the game for your business and your wealth.Hudson breaks down the systems, mindset, and everyday actions that led him from “just getting by” to building generational wealth, and how any agent can follow the same blueprint. If you've ever wondered how to take your real estate business from transactional to transformational, this is the conversation you don't want to miss.Resources:Santana Team – Hudson's companyEmail Hudson at Hudson@SantanaTeam.com for his free Zoom class on developmentOrder the Millionaire Real Estate Agent Playbook | Volume 2Connect with Jason:LinkedinProduced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.

If you're out there grinding with no past performance, no big contracts, and no traction—this episode is your wake-up call. I break down the exact strategy I used in 2008 to go from zero to six figures by leveraging the consultant model—a proven shortcut to skip the five-year contract cycles and piggyback off other companies' capabilities. We're not here to chase $25k crumbs—we're here to build real wealth, and it starts with thinking differently. I even brought in insight from Dan Peña, who used this same model to build a $50B empire from scratch. In this episode, I walk you through the math, the mindset, and the mechanics of becoming a government consultant. Whether you want to get a piece of a $5M contract or land one high-ticket client and represent them in the federal space, I'll show you why this is the fastest path to revenue. You bring the hustle, they bring the past performance—and both of you win. I'm not teaching theory here. This is the exact model I followed, and it's the one I want you to adopt.

What's behind the Kroger Co.'s recent push to invest in Louisville?Jake Cannon, Louisville division president for Kroger, is on this week's Access Louisville podcast to explain that and much more.LBF has been reporting on major investments from Kroger in the market during the last few years. In March we had a story about a $1.8 million remodel of the West Broadway location. Before that, we covered a $2 million renovation of the Outer Loop Kroger. Those are just to name a few recent examples.As Cannon explains on the show: "it takes capital dollars invested into our brick and mortar stores to make sure layout of the store is right and that we have the right assortment [of products.] Thousands of items are introduced into the market each year."For example, he noted, that when he ran a Kroger store in the 2000s, there was only one energy drink on the shelves: Red Bull.  "Now it's an aisle ... everybody in the world has an energy drink and that's what the customers are looking for," he said.Late last year, Kroger also announced a $40 million new marketplace store on Beulah Church Road.The company is facing new competition in town, including Publix's entry and expansion into Louisville. Cannon talks about competition as well — including what he looks for when he visits Kroger's competitors. As well as companies that he personally admires, including Starbucks and Chik-fil-a.Cannon, originally from Utah, started working in a grocery store when he was 16 as he explained in this 2023 profile story in Business First. That store wasn't a Kroger location but he found his way to the company from there. He worked for Kroger in Utah, Las Vegas and at the company's general office in Cincinnati, before coming to Louisville. Cincinnati-based Kroger has served the Louisville community for 95 years now at 27 stores across Jefferson County. Kroger Louisville Division operates 116 retail stores in Kentucky, Southern Indiana and Southern Illinois. Kroger Co. is one of the largest employers in Greater Louisville.Access Louisville, sponsored by Baird, is a weekly podcast from Louisville Business First. It's available on popular podcast services including Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

When Partake Foods founder Denise Woodard's daughter had a life-threatening allergic reaction, everything changed. That moment inspired Denise to launch an allergy-friendly snack company that's now worth millions and serves thousands of families across the U.S. But starting a food business from scratch with no baking experience and no outside funding meant taking one bold risk after another.

In this episode of Running with Wolves, Savannah Jordan is breaking down what most business owners are totally winging: their sales conversations. We're talking real structure—the kind that builds actual trust (not “girl, I love your vibe” small talk), helps you spot different buyer types on the call, and handles objections without spiraling into panic mode. Savannah shares the exact flow she uses to lead a convo with confidence, ask the right questions that guide the lead toward an empowered yes, and keep control of the sale without sounding like a desperate used car salesman. If you've ever left a sales call thinking, “That should've closed,” this one's going to show you why—and what to do instead.   As always, if you have questions about this episode, MESSAGE Savannah on Instagram or submit your application to work with her HERE!

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty is joined by George Kourakos, founder of AMG Media and a Forbes 30 Under 30 entrepreneur, to unpack what it takes to build a thriving startup in Europe's evolving market. George shares how he turned student-run events into a marketing powerhouse working with brands like HP and Lenovo—without any outside funding. The conversation spans key mindset shifts, strategic bootstrapping, the real reason big brands sponsor, and why AI will never replace human touch in high-performance businesses. A must-listen for founders, freelancers, and growth-driven professionals.   About the Guest:George Kourakos is the founder and CEO of AMG Media, a full-scale marketing and event agency that began with grassroots student events and now partners with global corporations. Recognized by Forbes 30 Under 30, George has led major campaigns across Europe and mentors startups on sustainable growth, branding, and strategic planning.   Key Takeaways: Bootstrapping works when you focus on high-value, human-first service. Pitching to sponsors is less about glam and more about timing, clarity, and trust. European startup growth is more structured and fund-accessible but requires a deep understanding of country-specific needs. AI is powerful, but without human insight, it can't deliver meaningful long-term growth. Staying grounded comes from constant learning, late nights, and a strong personal vision—not from external accolades.   Connect with George Kourakos:LinkedIn: George KourakosInstagram, TikTok & Socials: Search AMG Media   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?DM on PodMatch: https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/avikTune to all our 15 podcasts: https://www.podbean.com/podcast-network/healthymindbyavikSubscribe To Newsletter: https://healthymindbyavik.substack.com/Join Community: https://nas.io/healthymind   Stay Tuned And Follow Us!YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@healthymind-healthylifeInstagram – https://www.instagram.com/healthyminds.podThreads – https://www.threads.net/@healthyminds.podFacebook – https://www.facebook.com/podcast.healthymindLinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/in/reemachatterjee/ | https://www.linkedin.com/in/avikchakrabortypodcaster #podmatch #healthymind #healthymindbyavik #wellness #entrepreneurship #startups #europeanbusiness
