What do a Marine, SWAT leader, entrepreneur, CEO, bestselling author, investor, and podcast host all have in common? In this episode, you'll find out... because they're all the same person. This week, Mitch sits down with Adam Contos, former CEO of RE/MAX Holdings and host of the Start With A Win podcast, for a conversation about success, purpose, reinvention, and why your best chapter may still be ahead of you.

Whether you're early in your career, navigating a transition, or wondering what's next after achieving significant success, Adam offers practical wisdom for creating momentum, finding purpose, and building a life you don't need to retire from. And perhaps most importantly... He shares why the next big breakthrough often starts with one small win. Read the full shownotes here: https://mitchmatthews.com/458

Welcome to Season 21 of Hurdle! To kick off this brand-new chapter, host Emily's going solo to share the deeply personal evolution of her relationship with running, her career, and herself. From being cut from the JV volleyball team in high school to weighing 200+ pounds as a college freshman, Emily opens up about the pivotal moment that changed everything and the simple decision that started it all: learning to keep showing up for herself, one step at a time. Whether you are a seasoned marathoner, balancing the demands of a freelance career, or looking for the inspiration to conquer your own current hurdles, this episode serves as a powerful reminder that you belong exactly as you are. Key Takeaways & Highlights The Turning Point: Emily revisits her freshman year at the University of Connecticut, stepping on a dusty scale under her bunk bed, and the counter-intuitive sprint that sparked her health journey. The "Half-Mile" Summer: The hilarious and humbling realization that the "mile" she thought she was running every day at summer camp was actually just a half-mile—and why being bad at something is the first step to getting good. The Career Hustle: A winding look through Emily’s nearly 20-year journalism career—from associate editor at The Stir to fitness editor roles at Rodale and Self, and finally, the leap of faith into full-time freelancing and starting Hurdle. Understanding Opportunity Cost: How a casual glass of wine and a conversation on a New York rooftop redefined the sacrifices required to achieve big athletic and personal goals. Looking Ahead to Sydney: Emily gives an update on her current training block for the upcoming Sydney Marathon on August 30th, balancing high-mileage goals with a busy travel schedule. Memorable Quotes "I am talking about what happens to your mind, and your confidence, and your life when you decide to keep showing up for yourself, one step at a time." "You belong exactly as you are."

On this week's Extra Serving, NRN editor in chief Sam Oches and executive editor Alicia Kelso discuss the latest restaurant industry news, including Yum! Brands' sale of Pizza Hut, Jersey Mike's overtaking of Chick-fil-A in a major consumer sentiment study, and KFC's announcement that it was entering a new chapter for growth. First up is Pizza Hut, which was officially sold by Yum! Brands in two transactions totaling $2.7 billion. Sam and Alicia discuss the potential future of the brand, and particularly its U.S. business, which was acquired by relatively new private equity firm LongRange Capital. Can Pizza Hut reclaim the loyalty of fans who are nostalgic for its Classic model? Next up they talk about the most recent American Consumer Satisfaction Index, in which Jersey Mike's came out on top — after 11 years of Chick-fil-A taking the crown. Should Chick-fil-A be worried? Sam and Alicia break down the study and why the data matters (to a point). They then transition to KFC, which announced a new “chapter” in which the company would focus on menu innovation, refreshed branding, and modernized stores. Alicia breaks down all the components of this new chapter, and she and Sam talk about how KFC is well positioned to learn from its global stores here in the U.S. They shift their attention to the increase in store closures — On the Border, for example, is now down to only 6 units — before closing with a Quick Fire round in which they cover Panera Bread's new bowls and McDonald's (brief) reintroduction of its beloved Apple Pie.

Tomorrow you're going to write a new chapter in your story, and the only real question is what kind of pen you'll be holding. All week in Exodus 14, we watched two million people stuck between the Red Sea and an army, caught in the cycle of fear, sarcasm, and worst-case thinking. But I've decided to throw in with Moses and plant my flag with the fear-not, stand-firm, expect-God's-help crowd. When I look back at everything God has already pulled off, parting waters and raising the dead throughout history, I can't find a single reason to believe He won't show up for me now. So what's the Red Sea in front of you, and which pen are you going to pick up?Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion. Grounded in Scripture and shaped by Eastside's conviction that God's grace is for everyone, each episode invites you to discover God's presence and activity in your life.

This episode is all about a young up-and-coming hooper on the women's side, but someone who has been with our National teams since she was 17, Merissah Russell! What a fun episode, the energy Merissah brings to this one is so good, and you can see why she is a do-it-all type on the court!  Once basketball became the focus (and not volleyball like her big sister), Merissah pursued the next level and traveled North America to see the best. In the end, she committed early to the Louisville Cardinals program, a storied program that made two Elite 8's and one final four! That, plus national team experience with two World Cups (U17 and U19), is why it feels like Merissah has been around so long! The Ottawa native found herself on a recent new adventure, hoopin' up in the 3x3 with our legendary Women's team! This episode has it all, don't forget to tap in!

Episode 353 hosts Dr John Delaney (Co-founder of Fresh Clinics) In this episode we explore the introduction of a new model of services for Australian aesthetic clinics called 'Fresh Health' - and its potential to reshape the landscape of aesthetics and primary care medicine.  Fresh Clinics already support injectors with technology to ensure compliance, training and higher standards. But Fresh Health is their next evolution that allows cosmetic clinics to offer additional medical services including for weight loss, menopause and hair loss consultations.

Episode 201 picks up just days after Walk-In Talk Media celebrated its 200th episode at Tampa Club. What started as a milestone celebration became something much bigger: more than 120 hospitality professionals, chefs, operators, distributors, manufacturers, brand partners, creators, and friends gathered in one room to celebrate the community that has formed around Walk-In Talk Media. Chef Thomas Mandzik joins the show to reflect on the night, the energy in the room, the food, the sponsors, the Tasty Cam moments, and what it meant to see so many industry people show up for one another. From the Walk-In Talk Podcast ice carving and Crab Island Seafood dip display to the nonstop hospitality from Thomas and the Tampa Club team, the evening became a reminder that this industry is built on relationships. As Thomas put it: "Yes, we're competitors… but we're still all fans of each other." The conversation also looks ahead to Thomas's next chapter. This fall, he'll be leaving Tampa Club and heading to Corpus Christi, Texas, where he plans to open an intimate 20-seat restaurant built around his own vision, artistry, faith, and pursuit of a deeply personal dining experience. In studio, Thomas prepares two foie gras-driven dishes: Foie gras with squab, blue corn grits cake, Three Sisters composition, and jus. Bluefin tuna "ravioli" with foie gras mousse, mascarpone, Parmesan, basil emulsion, blood orange gastrique, yuzu aioli, and tomato ginger water. This episode is about celebration, community, gratitude, faith, risk, and the next chapter for one of Walk-In Talk Media's closest chef voices. Episode Takeaways Walk-In Talk Media's Episode 200 celebration became a true hospitality community moment. More than 120 industry professionals gathered at Tampa Club to celebrate the milestone. Chef Thomas Mandzik and the Tampa Club team helped create the culinary energy of the night. The event highlighted the power of relationships across chefs, operators, distributors, manufacturers, and brand partners. Thomas sees the Central Florida hospitality scene as competitive, but also deeply supportive. His move to Corpus Christi is rooted in family, faith, timing, and opportunity. Thomas plans to open an intimate 20-seat restaurant focused on artistry, memory, and elevated dining. The episode features two highly technical foie gras dishes built around squab and bluefin tuna. Hospitality at its best is about creating moments people remember. Episode 201 serves as both a recap of a major milestone and a preview of Thomas's next chapter.

"Take charge. Your retirement is your time." Our hosts, Stephanie McCullough and Kevin Gaines, sit down with Dr. Andi Simon, corporate anthropologist and author of Rethink Retirement, whose research offers a bracing corrective to how most people think about life after work. Andi spent years embedding herself in senior living communities on the west coast, interviewing residents who had done everything "right" financially and still found themselves empty, bored, and stripped of identity. Through it all, she's concluded that retiring from something is not the same as retiring to something. The central tension Andi identifies is one of agency. Retirement is a transition most people face without any rehearsal. Unlike a career, which assigns identity, purpose, and daily rhythm almost automatically, retirement demands that individuals build those things from scratch. Most people don't realize this until the calendar is suddenly, completely clear. Her research also surfaces a loneliness epidemic quietly accelerating among retirees. Work colleagues disappear, and friendships built around shared roles don't transfer easily. Also, relationships don't deepen automatically just because time is now available. Instead, they must be deliberately cultivated. Andi suggests trying new activities, building community intentionally, and recognizing which old roles to carry forward and which to release. Above all, she invites near-retirees to take charge, not just of their portfolio, but of the life waiting on the other side!   Key Topics: What is a Corporate Anthropologist?

In June 1992, 179 nations made two pledges that still shape every international conservation agreement today, and thirty years later, the world's most important climate conference was held inside a tropical rainforest. What happens in those halls matters—but so does everything that happens after. James Deutsch, CEO of Rainforest Trust, breaks down how a half-billion-dollar pledge helped catalyze the 30x30 target, why the Tropical Forests Forever Facility could fix a structural flaw in carbon finance, and where he sees the next window for real conservation progress. Constanza Prieto Figelist, Legal Director for Latin America at the Earth Law Center, explains how a Peruvian court recognized the Marañón River as a subject of rights, and why four articles in Ecuador's constitution have stopped more destructive projects than years of protest ever could. Catarina Nefertari of Amazônia de Pé was on the ground in Belém when COP30 arrived, and has spent years closing the distance between communities most affected by Amazon destruction and the rooms where decisions about its future are made.

Some practices are built from scratch; others are inherited. While both come with challenges, inheriting a practice brings a unique responsibility: preserving what made it successful while finding the courage to evolve it for the future. In this episode of Power Hour, Eugene sits down with Dr. Luke Small, a third-generation optometrist and Owner of Armstrong & Small Eye Care Centre, one of the oldest optometry practices in Canada, with a history spanning more than 110 years. Luke's grandfather helped shape the profession in its early days. His father expanded the practice into a standalone eye care center and embraced technology long before most practices considered it. Today, Luke is leading the next chapter, modernizing the business through medical eye care, advanced technology, a second location, and a culture-first approach to patient experience. This is a conversation about growth, leadership, and what happens when the doctor everyone wants to see must begin transforming into the CEO the practice needs.

If you've been feeling pulled toward something new but fear, doubt, or uncertainty keep holding you back, this conversation is a powerful reminder that growth rarely happens inside your comfort zone—and that self-confidence isn't having all the answers. It's trusting that you'll figure it out along the way. In this episode you'll learn: • How to redefine success for your current season of life • Why comparing your journey to others keeps you stuck • The connection between self-trust and confidence • How to protect your energy and avoid burnout • Why pivots often become the catalyst for growth • How to quiet self-doubt and listen to your inner wisdom Because sometimes the next version of your life begins with one brave decision.

EPISODE 721 - Janet Kintner - A Judge's Tale - A Trailblazer Fights For Her Place on the BenchIn this episode of Living the Next Chapter, host Dave sits down with Janet Kintner, a retired judge, attorney, and newly published author whose journey from the courtroom to the writer's desk reveals a life committed to justice, courage, and reflection. Speaking from her homes in San Diego and Victoria, Canada, Janet offers a look into her groundbreaking career as one of the youngest female judges in California and the personal transformation that came with writing her memoir.Janet opens up about her early motivation to pursue law in a system historically dominated by men. Facing bias, skepticism, and immense pressure, she navigated the courtroom with determination, earning a reputation for sharp intellect, integrity, and fairness. Her experiences as both advocate and judge shaped her understanding of justice as empathy balanced with objectivity. She shares that maintaining emotional distance was a necessity in law—essential for fair judgment but challenging when faced with tragedy. Writing her memoir forced her to reconnect with those long-suppressed emotions, creating both healing and honesty in her storytelling.The process of writing, Janet admits, was as demanding as any legal trial. From juggling hundreds of drafts to conducting years of research, she learned to stay organized and rely on professional editors who matched her style. Classes in memoir writing also helped her transition from legal precision to emotional clarity, teaching her to articulate feeling rather than just fact. Her advice to new authors is practical: take writing classes, choose your editor wisely, and date every document to track progress.Janet reflects on her groundbreaking appointment to the bench at age thirty-one—then the youngest judge in California—and the isolation that often comes with being a pioneer. Over time, she found solidarity with younger judges entering the system, helping to reshape a once insular profession. Through her career, she remained guided by fairness, objectivity, and a commitment to giving every voice—especially women—a chance to be heard.As she discusses her memoir, Janet shares that she wrote not only for her generation of women but for younger readers who can learn from the struggles of the past. Her humor, warmth, and optimism shine throughout her story, softening even the hardest experiences. She's proud of weaving strength with vulnerability, showing that compassion is never a weakness in leadership.Looking ahead, Janet hints at her next project: a work of fiction that lets her explore imagination and “say all the things I wish I'd said.” With clear joy, she notes that writing has become an uplifting addiction—another chapter in a life defined by purpose and perseverance.Key takeaway:True legacy is not built on authority alone but on integrity, empathy, and resilience. Janet Kintner's journey reminds us that even after years of reasoned judgment, rediscovering emotion and sharing our stories can be the most liberating act of all.https://www.janetkintner.com/Send us Fan MailSupport the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

This week, Jack Sharry talks with Steve Gresham, Founder and Managing Principal at NextChapter. With more than 40 years in asset and wealth management, Steve has spent his career working on growth issues as an executive and as an advisor to executives. He has also played a key role in developing major industry innovations, including managed accounts, target-date funds, wealth strategies, and practice management. Steve talks with Jack about why advisor capacity is becoming the defining driver of enterprise value. He discusses how firms can build their enterprise value through four key levers—headquarters-led capabilities, hybrid tech and human delivery, retention, and client acquisition. Steve further explores why advisory capacity is the new growth currency in wealth management and how AI accelerates this shift. In this episode: (00:00) - Intro (01:54) - Defining organic growth, enterprise value, and advisor capacity (05:03) - The next chapter of organic growth (08:53) - How advisor capacity is a driver of enterprise value (11:28)- How AI is linked to enterprise value (14:57) - The four levers to build enterprise value (20:45) - Applying the four levers framework to real firms (25:42) - Steve's key takeaways (27:46) - Steve's interests outside of work Quotes "You have to be able to tie AI into what is already an ongoing digital and information revolution. AI is riding on those same rails. It is accelerating the speed of the train, but it's still primarily leading to a human-led advice industry." ~ Steve Gresham "Newer, younger advisors have a much more open mind about the role of technology. It makes them more efficient. And if it's used correctly, it makes them more successful." ~ Steve Gresham "End treating organic growth as a hero metric and start managing for enterprise value. And that means defining the advisor or the organization's capacity to engage as a KPI." ~ Steve Gresham Links  Steve Gresham on LinkedIn NextChapter SEI Fidelity Investments Connect with our hosts LifeYield Jack Sharry on LinkedIn Jack Sharry on Twitter Subscribe and stay in touch Apple Podcasts Spotify LinkedIn Twitter Facebook

In this episode of BioTalk with Rich Bendis, Neal Piper, Founder and CEO of Luminoah, returns to share a major milestone in the company's journey: FDA clearance for Luminoah Flow. A past winner of the BioHealth Capital Region Crab Trap Competition, Neal first joined BioTalk to discuss the deeply personal story behind the company. His family's experience during his son Noah's cancer treatment revealed the daily challenges of tube feeding, from limited mobility and caregiver burden to the lack of real-time data once patients leave the hospital. Now, after six years of development, persistence, regulatory work, and product refinement, Luminoah is preparing to bring its portable, connected enteral nutrition system to patients, caregivers, clinicians, and health systems. Neal discusses what FDA clearance means for the company, how Luminoah Flow is designed to support more independence in daily life, and what comes next as the team prepares for early access programs, commercial rollout, and continued growth in the BioHealth Capital Region. Editing and post-production work for this episode was provided by The Podcast Consultant.
