He argues that no business can thrive or be successfully exited unless it's built on trust, documented systems, and well-defined accountability.

About the Show:“Why did nobody tell me about this?”– Dr. Kristin MarkellIn this episode of I Am Northwest Arkansas®, host Randy Wilburn sits down with Dr. Kristin Markell, an integrative medicine specialist helping women navigate the often-overlooked journey of perimenopause and menopause. Dr. Markell combines her experience as a traditional OB/GYN with holistic, whole-person strategies to provide personalized care for women in Northwest Arkansas and beyond.Together, Randy and Dr. Markell break down the basics of perimenopause and menopause—including what these terms really mean, when symptoms can start, and why every woman's experience is unique. Dr. Markell shares her personal and professional journey, the frustration women feel about the lack of education on these topics, and how integrative medicine can help women feel their best through this stage of life.The episode also explores how families, employers, and the wider community can better support women during this transition, as well as the emerging innovations and digital tools empowering women to take charge of their health.If you're a woman, love a woman, work with women, or are simply curious, this is an important conversation for you.Key Takeaways:Menopause is natural but often misunderstood: Most women aren't taught about perimenopause and menopause early enough. Symptoms can start as early as a woman's 30s—not just in the 50s or 60s—and everyone's experience is different.Definitions matter: Menopause is officially when a woman hasn't had a period for one year; perimenopause is the 7-10 years leading up to that.Symptoms are more than hot flashes: Every area of the body can be affected, from brain fog and anxiety to fatigue, aches, and sexual health changes.You don't have to “just deal with it”: Dr. Markell urges women not to “white knuckle” through symptoms—there are treatments and support, including both hormonal and non-hormonal options.Integrative medicine offers personalized care: Dr. Markell's approach looks at the whole person, from nutrition to stress to long-term wellness, not just the symptoms.Support is a team effort: Family, partners, co-workers, and employers all play a role in helping women thrive during this time.Resources are growing: New digital tools, wearables, and dedicated clinics (including right here in NWA!) are giving women greater access to care and information.All this and more on this episode of the I Am Northwest Arkansas® podcast.Important Links and Mentions on the Show* Dr. Kristin Markell's Website: https://kristinmarkellmd.comThe Menopause Society: https://www.menopause.orgDr. Markell on Instagram: @kristenmarkellmdDr. Markell on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kristinmarkellmd/Contact Dr. Markell's Office: 479-222-0966You can listen to the I Am Northwest Arkansas® podcast weekly on KUAF 91.3 FM's Ozarks at Large(Other resources and episodes mentioned: Mel Robbins, “The Diary of a CEO” with Steven Bartlett, Dr. Peter Attia & Dr. Rachel Rubin Podcast, Midi Health, Electra Health)FindItNWA.com NWA's Hyperlocal Business DirectoryThis episode is sponsored by*Signature Bank of Arkansas "Community Banking at its Best!"

About the Show:“Everyone with access to a smartphone and technology today has access to the global library of entertainment twenty-four seven—and we all have to build self-control around it, or we're going to develop bad habits.”Ian McCreadyIn this powerful episode of I Am Northwest Arkansas®, host Randy Wilburn sits down with Ian McCready, founder of SelfCtrl, to tackle a challenge nearly everyone faces today: technology addiction. From video games to cell phones, Ian shares his personal story of how digital devices took over his own life and what he did to change for the better. Now, he's helping others across Northwest Arkansas and beyond find hope, healthy routines, and true connection outside of screens.Randy and Ian break down why technology is so addictive, how it affects both kids and adults, and what practical steps families, schools, and individuals can take to reclaim their attention and mental well-being. Ian gives honest advice about meaningful digital detoxes, setting boundaries, and building healthier habits at any age. Whether you're a parent struggling to limit screen time or an adult hoping to break free from scrolling, this episode is full of tips and encouragement for you.Key Takeaways:Awareness is the First Step: Admitting technology has become a problem is key. You don't have to call it an “addiction”—just a habit that isn't helping you.Dopamine Demand: Games and apps are designed to keep you coming back. As tolerance builds, it takes more and more time on screens to feel the same excitement.Detox is Possible: Even short breaks from digital devices—like a 30- or 60-day digital detox—can help your brain reset and bring back lost joy and motivation.It's Not Just for Kids: Adults of all ages, not just teens, are struggling with technology overuse and its impact on work, relationships, and happiness.Replace, Don't Just Remove: Find healthy activities to fill the time you get back—walks, conversations, reading, or family games—to make new habits stick.Support Matters: Be open with friends and family about your goals for change, and ask for their support. Accountability makes a huge difference.Self-Control is Learnable: These changes are challenging but possible, and Northwest Arkansas can be a model for positive change around healthy screen use.All this and more on this episode of the I Am Northwest Arkansas® podcast.Important Links and Mentions on the Show*SelfCtrl—Website, resources, and upcoming courses: selfctrl.comDr. Jonathan Haidt's Book: “The Anxious Generation”SelfControl on Instagram & Facebook: @buildselfctrlRecommended Reading: “Atomic Habits” by James ClearFindItNWA.com NWA's Hyperlocal Business DirectoryPodcastVideos.com – Rogers, AR – Podcast video production partnersTune in to KUAF 91.3 FM to listen to the I Am Northwest Arkansas® podcast on Ozarks at Large every Tuesday at 12 Noon...

Flair on The Clay Edwards Show: Wrestling Icon Talks Legacy, Cannabis, and Life At Southern Sky Brands in Canton, MS, wrestling legend Ric Flair joined host Clay Edwards for a lively interview blending nostalgia, business, and personal insights. Edwards, a fan since childhood, shared a vivid memory: watching TBS wrestling at 5:05 p.m., where the Four Horsemen broke Dusty Rhodes' leg. His grandfather called Flair "the dirtiest motherfucker in the game"—a compliment in Flair's eyes. At 48, Edwards thanked Flair for decades of memories. Flair's favorite era? NWA in the 1980s. He recalled Jackson Coliseum shows and nights at the Reservoir, bars like The Dock (now gone) and Martin's (still thriving). The chat focused on Flair's "Ric Flair Drip" cannabis line with Southern Sky. Overwhelmed by the facility's quality, Flair praised the team and sales across 200 dispensaries. Edwards, after touring, called it true medical-grade; if he partook, it'd be Flair's brand over competitors. Entry into cannabis came via a late associate and Mike Tyson, a friend since the '80s. Tyson, still in shape post-Jake Paul fight, partnered with Flair. Flair stays fit, deadlifting 400 lbs. Being Flair means constant fame—photos everywhere, but 99% positive. "Living the gimmick" has pitfalls, like tax issues, but he enjoys it. Edwards dubbed him a true icon. Hulk Hogan's recent death added poignancy; Flair plans Biloxi visits before Sept. 2, appearances in 14 states, CarShield ads with Ice-T, and autograph sessions. WOO Energy drink eyes China and Thailand markets. Travel tales included urging Edwards to visit Malaysia; Edwards shared his flying fear and brief LA stint. Excited for Ric Flair Drip's growth, Flair credits Southern Sky's promotion. He appreciates Mississippi's warmth (and drinking prowess over Canadians). On WWE's ESPN deal, Flair's humble: they're printing money. Hogan's decline—surgeries left him diminished—sparked anxiety; Flair's 2017 crisis (organ failure, ICU, stoma) led to life-support limits. Edwards thanked Flair, eager for more MS visits. Flair reciprocated, honored to share his story.
Yes, Vu has another NWA but this time it's totally not his fault.

On today's episode of my show, The Clay Edwards Show, I kick off with excitement for the third hour's Heavy Hitters segment featuring The Outlaw Entrepreneur Show. My guest, Lee Bailey from Salad Days, discusses our innovative indoor lettuce farm in Flora, Mississippi, which supplies high-quality, pesticide-free produce to restaurants and stores. I share my positive experience trying our butter lettuce, noting its exceptional freshness and longevity compared to store-bought options, and draw parallels to growing medical cannabis indoors. I recount personal stories, including my anticipation for meeting wrestling legend Ric Flair and a childhood memory of watching NWA wrestling with my grandfather, who despised Flair's antics. The show delves into a serious incident in Copiah County: following a fatal three-car crash involving drag racing, where 18-year-old Kensavion Brown lost his life, his father allegedly assaulted four responding firefighters, sending three to the hospital. I express sympathy for the family's loss but criticize the lack of charges, urging Sheriff Byron Swilley to act and emphasizing accountability for attacks on first responders. I discuss the emotional context but insist such actions are inexcusable, sharing listener reactions and stressing the need for equal application of the law. I address backlash from my recent speech at the Rankin County Republican Breakfast, where I railed against school choice policies. I argue against allowing public school transfers, particularly from Jackson to suburban districts like Rankin or Madison, claiming it invites "cultural cancer" and undermines sacrifices made by families who relocated for better education. I support money following students to charter or private schools but reject public-to-public transfers, citing examples of negative influences and questioning motives of proponents, whom I link to financial gains. A caller challenges my stance, praising school choice successes in neighboring states, but I defend my position as realistic, not racist, and call for a ballot initiative if it's truly popular. The episode wraps with me standing firm on my views and teasing continued discussion.
We welcome in Bronze Star recipient Leo Fox, who you might know from OVW, NWA and CYN. He's a man with a very interesting story of struggles and recoveries. Now he's living his dream, wrestling full time, with a wife and new child. Of course we also talk nonsense. Which leads me to tell my paranormal experience. I hate when they reverse the tables on me. Lol.

Welcome to Wrestling Tonight, your weekly deep dive into everything happening across WWE, AEW, NJPW, TNA, and more. This is Episode 134, and we're coming off one of the most eventful weekends of the summer. We start with the fallout from TNA Slammiversary 2025, where AJ Styles returned to the company he helped build. While the Phenomenal One didn't compete, his appearance marked a symbolic homecoming — and perhaps the beginning of something bigger. We break down what his involvement means for the WWE–TNA partnership, what's next for Trick Williams and Jacy Jayne after defending their titles, and how TNA continues to evolve as a major player in the current wrestling landscape. Then — Goldberg is done staying quiet. The Hall of Famer is furious over how WWE handled his final match, venting on the Ariel Helwani Show about being cut off, ignored, and given no real send-off. With his NDA reportedly set to expire in two weeks, we dig into what Goldberg hinted at — and whether WWE might be bracing for a scorched-earth response. Meanwhile in AEW, Tony Khan opens up about feeling double-crossed by AAA during the infamous 2022 tag title switch involving FTR and Dragon Lee. We revisit the moment, what really happened behind the scenes, and why this revelation — combined with AEW's growing relationship with CMLL — signals a full pivot away from AAA in the wake of WWE's pending acquisition. Also on the show: G1 Climax 35 is underway, and early results have already flipped expectations. We've got upsets, injuries, and surprise leaders in both blocks. Seth Rollins' knee injury raises more questions — is it legit or storyline misdirection ahead of a surprise cash-in? Jelly Roll slams Logan Paul through a desk on Jimmy Kimmel Live as SummerSlam hype hits a new level CM Punk praises Triple H, reflects on creative freedom, and previews his title clash with Gunther Roman Reigns returns to Raw, but what's really motivating the One True Chief? KENTA wins the GHC Heavyweight Title at NOAH's 25th Anniversary, setting up a legacy rematch with Marufuji Plus: Omega & Ospreay's time off, WWE's new severance policy, and more
SummaryIn this week's episode of Startup Junkies, hosts Daniel Koonce, Caleb Talley, and Jeff Amerine dive deep into the topics of screen time, digital distraction, and addictive technologies with Ian McCready, founder of selfctrl. Ian's journey is as relatable as it is eye-opening—once addicted to video games himself, he now leads a nonprofit aimed at helping kids and parents reclaim their time and mental wellbeing in the age of endless scrolling and instant dopamine hits.Through candid stories, Ian shares how recognizing the negative impact of his gaming habit (sometimes up to 14 hours a day in college) prompted a complete lifestyle shift. He ultimately launched selfctrl, dedicated to equipping both youth and adults with the skills and frameworks to develop healthier relationships with screens. From school assemblies to workshops for parents, Ian and his team offer practical, actionable steps for families feeling overwhelmed by technology.What's striking is the universality of the challenge. Ian highlights stories ranging from elementary-age children struggling to put down YouTube to adults admitting addiction to mobile games and social media. Listeners will find both comfort and motivation in Ian's advice: set limits, seek real-life community, and be transparent about struggles. The conversation concludes with a powerful reminder about the value of relationships and human connection, something screens can't replace.
