Recorded live at the EDGE Conference, this special episode brings all four hosts together for an honest, reflective conversation about what makes this meeting so meaningful for CRNA educators, and why it continues to matter more than ever. Here's some of what you'll hear in this episode:
Heather Vickery and Alan Seales sit down with Troy Horne, a multi-hyphenate creative whose career spans music, Broadway, television, entrepreneurship, and authorship. The conversation explores what it really means to take intentional risks—especially in midlife—and how clarity, courage, and self-trust compound over time. Troy shares how his creative journey began with a childhood performance in church that revealed both his talent and his appetite for risk. From there, he followed a path shaped by persistence rather than certainty, navigating choir, talent shows, and eventually national television on Star Search. That experience became an early lesson in how the entertainment industry actually works—where talent matters, but timing, narrative, and business needs often matter just as much. The discussion traces Troy's decision to move to Los Angeles with limited resources, highlighting the importance of “networking sideways” rather than chasing gatekeepers. Troy recounts his time working alongside peers who would later become industry leaders, including Octavia Spencer, and how those early peer relationships proved more valuable than traditional ladder-climbing. A pivotal moment in the episode is Troy's Broadway story. While auditioning for Rent, he turned down a touring role because it conflicted with his personal values and family priorities. That clarity led to an unexpected outcome: a Broadway role as Tom Collins. This moment anchors a central theme of the episode—knowing what you want, and being willing to say no, often creates space for the right yes. The episode culminates in a discussion of Troy's latest book, Middle Management: How to Find Meaning, Clarity, and Success in the Second Half of Life. Troy outlines the mindset shifts required for midlife reinvention, including the necessity of quieting external noise, reconnecting with one's internal voice, and recognizing that experience—not youth—is the true advantage of the second half of life. Throughout the episode, Troy reinforces the idea that reinvention is not about starting over, but about reapplying everything you already know with greater intention. Midlife, he argues, is not a closing chapter—it is often the moment when the best tools, clearest values, and boldest opportunities finally converge. Connect With Us:

Most people assume the internet is stable, durable, and ready for whatever comes next. The truth is a bit more complicated. Modern networks were never designed for today's scale, and for the first time we are seeing technology that can make them smarter, simpler, and far more reliable.In this episode of IT Visionaries, host Chris Brandt talks with Anil Varanasi, CEO and Co-Founder of Meter, about how the next era of networking is taking shape. Anil explains why traditional infrastructure struggles to keep up, how a unified approach can remove layers of complexity, and why the future of the internet is moving toward faster and more resilient systems.He also shares how natural language tools and purpose-built models are transforming the work of network engineers, and why autonomous networking may arrive sooner than most people expect. These advancements are creating a path to networks that can configure, maintain, and optimize themselves without increasing operational burden.

In an industry built on speed, what actually sustains long-term success. In this Industry Spotlight, Kortney Harmon sits down with Elizabeth Rosenberg to examine why trust and reputation remain recruiting's most durable advantage.Drawing on decades of experience advising executives on communication and personal brand, Elizabeth offers a grounded perspective on how credibility is built through everyday behavior. The conversation explores where transactional habits quietly undermine relationships, why visibility without intention can weaken trust, and how recruiters shape their reputations long before deals are closed. Rather than focusing on tactics, this discussion reframes personal brand as a reflection of consistency, judgment, and how leaders show up when it matters most.The conversation reveals why lasting relationships—not speed alone—define long-term success, and how investing in trust and authenticity shapes both stronger firms and more durable careers.______________________Follow Elizabeth Rosenberg on Linked: LinkedIn | ElizabethCheck out her website hereFollow Crelate on LinkedIn: CrelateWant to learn more about Crelate?

Today's episode is a real estate conversation with one of the most impressive young agents in the business. Cooper Murphy is 23 years old and closed 58 deals in his first full year as a real estate agent in 2025 — in a market where most people say it's “too hard to sell.” We break down exactly how he did it. We discuss what real work looks like day-to-day, why intention matters more than scripts, and how creating real value is the fastest way to build referrals and momentum. Cooper walks through his daily schedule, how many hours he's actually working, how he structures his calls and follow-ups, and why consistency beats talent every time. We also get into:Why networking works when it's done with the right intentionHow one great deal can turn into 10–15 moreThe difference between buyers and listings and where Cooper focused earlyWhy working with people your own age can compound long-termHow to think about lifetime client value instead of quick winsCreative financing and subject-to strategies and why they matter in this marketHow to analyze worst-case scenarios so you don't over-leverageWhy content and deal-sharing builds trust faster than traditional marketingThis episode is a blueprint for young agents, new agents, and anyone who wants to build a real estate business that compounds instead of burns out.

If meetings are draining your energy, killing momentum, and stealing your calendar — you're not imagining it. They're broken. And they're costing us trillions. In this episode of This Is Woman's Work, Nicole is joined by Dr. Rebecca Hinds, organizational behavior expert, Stanford PhD, and author of Your Best Meeting Ever, to expose why meetings are one of the most expensive, overlooked products inside any organization — and how to fix them. We get into: Why bad meetings are literally an old-school sabotage tactic (thanks, WWII) The real cost of ineffective meetings — and who pays the highest price The 4D CEO Test for deciding if a meeting should exist at all Why status updates don't belong in meetings (ever) The science behind why meetings over 8 people stop working How to measure meetings by return on time invested Why you don't need fewer meetings — you need better ones And how to influence meetings even when you're not the one in charge This conversation is part wake-up call, part permission slip, and part playbook for anyone done pretending “this is just how work works.” Meetings aren't neutral. They shape culture, power, and whose work gets seen — so if your meetings are broken, your organization is too. The good news? You don't need more authority to change them — just more intention.

In Episode 286, Jeri Schlickbernd returns to REIA Radio after multiple appearances—and Ted and Owen dig into what happens when real estate (and life) doesn't follow the cute little plan you wrote on a whiteboard in 2021.Jeri walks through the real story behind the big moves: relocating from St. Petersburg, dealing with renovations that turned into a slow-motion disaster, and the emotional/financial pressure that comes when your “home run” project becomes your “why do I do this” project. She's candid about hard seasons, the mindset shifts that got her through it, and why “back to basics” isn't a downgrade—it's survival, stability, and eventually, growth.The episode turns into a practical masterclass when Jeri breaks down how to avoid shiny-object syndrome by getting brutally clear on your “why” and your number—then using that clarity as a decision filter. She also drops one of the simplest rules that saves investors a lot of pain: “Inspect what you expect.”Finally, Jeri shares what she's building now for newer investors: her Catalyst class—built for people with roughly three (or fewer) doors, covering the A-to-Z fundamentals (comps, rehab estimates, pro formas, financing), with mindset coaching baked in so students actually execute instead of just collecting information like Pokémon cards.If you got value from this episode, do the simple stuff that actually helps: follow/subscribe, leave a quick review, and send this to one investor friend who's currently chasing 14 strategies at once. And if you're newer (or feel like you need a reset), check out Jeri's Catalyst program and see if it fits where you're at right now.

What does it take to turn a part-time passion into a full-time pet-sitting business? In this episode, former veterinary technician and owner of Dreaming Tree Pet Services, Jenn Wegener, shares how her medical background gives her an edge in pet care and client trust. She opens up about the fear of leaving a steady job for the uncertainty of entrepreneurship, and how she balances structure, family, and growth. Collin and Jenn discuss the importance of networking, setting intentional goals, and knowing when to say no. Above all, Jenn reminds listeners that caring for yourself is part of caring well for others. Main topics: Overcoming fear of growth Vet tech experience in business Building trust with clients Managing stress and self-care Networking and intentional expansion Main takeaway: "I take a lot of pride in caring for other people's homes and their pets." That line from Jenn Wegener says it all. Trust is the heartbeat of pet sitting—it's what keeps clients coming back and what gives us purpose on the hard days. When you treat every pet as if they're yours, your care becomes personal, not transactional. It's the difference between a service and a relationship. Jenn's story on this week's Pet Sitter Confessional is a reminder that compassion and professionalism can (and should) go hand in hand.

Summary Most people hear "franchise" and think McDonald's-level money and full-time grind. In this episode, Curtis sits down with Greg Mohr, founder of Franchise Maven, to break down a smarter, recession-resistant path: buying essential service businesses with proven systems without needing to be the technician. Greg shares his background from corporate engineering and small business ownership into franchising, then teaches how to evaluate franchise opportunities like a real investor. The centerpiece is his simple due-diligence filter: talk to 10+ operators before you buy anything and know what to listen for. What You'll Learn Why service franchises (HVAC, plumbing, electrical, senior care, restoration) can be more recession-resistant than trend-based businesses -The difference between buying a job vs buying a system (and how to structure the owner role) -A realistic expectation for time and ramp-up: 10–15 hours/week and a 2–3 year runway to "work-optional" cash flow -The 10-Operator Rule: why talking to 10 franchisees changes everything, and how it protects you from expensive mistakes -3 red flags to watch for when interviewing franchisees -Why undercapitalization kills otherwise good businesses—and how to think about runway and liquidity -What a pro forma is (in plain English) and how it helps you map break-even and profitability Key Quotes / Ideas "Don't buy a job—buy a system." "If you can't handle 18 months without income, don't pretend you're ready." "Keep interviewing operators until you hear the same truth over and over." Welcome: recession-resistant cash flow through service franchises. Greg's path: corporate → small business → franchising. Who this is for: career-changers, high achievers, and managers. Why service franchises are an overlooked asset class beyond fast food. The owner's role: you don't need to be the technician. "Don't buy a job—buy a system" and the delegation mindset. What "recession-resistant" actually means (essential services). Realistic time and effort expectations (semi-absentee ≠ no work). The 10-Operator Rule for due diligence. Red flags to watch for before buying. Capital runway and avoiding undercapitalization. Pro forma basics: costs, break-even, and timeline.

In this episode, we sit down with Walker Antonio, a Virginia-based Filipino-American painter whose work blurs the boundaries between the real and surreal, the physical and psychological. Working primarily on a large scale, Walker's process moves from energetic chaos to deliberate refinement—a philosophy that extends to his remarkable career trajectory. Just 18 months after graduating from Wofford College with his BA in Studio Art and Art History, Walker has built an impressive professional practice. He shares his unconventional journey from receiving the 2023 Whetsell Family Fellowship to spending 10 months at a ski resort in Germany, and how he quickly gained representation with three galleries upon returning stateside. We dive into Walker's evolving artistic practice—from large-scale figurative works exploring themes of environment and identity to experimental 6x6-inch pieces that challenge his understanding of composition. He opens up about the pivot points in his career, including creating 34 pieces in 10 days during the Foundation House Artist Residency and showing alongside Picasso and Basquiat at the Palm Beach Modern Contemporary Art Fair. As the first visual artist selected for the Kenan-Lewis Fellowship at Woodberry Forest School, Walker offers candid insights on balancing teaching, pursuing his MA in Fine Arts from Falmouth University, and managing the business side of art. He emphasizes the power of authentic networking over social media growth, the many hats artists must wear (accountant, marketer, graphic designer), and why he's chosen to avoid commissions to protect his creative vision. With solo exhibitions at Stevenson & Co. (Charleston, SC) and the Rhodes Art Center (Gill, MA) in 2025, plus upcoming shows at Sheridan Studios (Macon, GA) in February 2026 and the Baker Gallery (Woodberry Forest, VA) in November 2026, Walker's career is rapidly expanding. His work has been published in American Art Collector and Suboart Magazine, with forthcoming publication in the Penn Journal of Arts and Sciences. Whether you're an emerging artist or simply curious about the art world, Walker's perspective on treating Instagram as a living portfolio, his strategic approach to artist residencies (including his upcoming 2026 Elf School of the Arts Residency), and his commitment to "just keep going" will inspire you to pursue your creative path with intention and authenticity.

This is the very first BTS episode with my brand coordinator, Kayleigh McNaughton, and it's the behind-the-scenes look at how we think about rooms, connection, and proximity in our business and our lives. We talk about why rooms change people, and why most people miss the opportunity before it even begins. We break down what makes a room magnetic, why discomfort is a sign you're in the right place, and how being around people who are already living your next level collapses time. Tune in to why belief is often borrowed before it becomes embodied, and how protecting your dreams sometimes means choosing new rooms.
