#711 What happens when you flip a jet ski, lose a $500 pair of sunglasses, and decide to build a better solution? You create one of the fastest-growing independent eyewear brands in the country! In this episode hosted by Brien Gearin, Jon Strauss, founder of Neven Eyewear, shares how that frustrating experience sparked a journey that led to a $30 million business. He dives into the challenges of breaking into a monopolized industry, how a bold “Buy One, Get Two Free” offer changed everything, and why customer experience and quality matter more than flashy branding. You'll also hear about Neven's expansion into prescription lenses, their unique partnership with 3,500+ doctors' offices, and what it really takes to scale a direct-to-consumer e-commerce brand from zero to millions! (Original Air Date - 5/2/25) What we discuss with Jon: + Lost sunglasses sparked the idea + Launched with no initial sales + Breakthrough: buy one, get two free + Self-funded, bootstrapped growth + Found key supplier through trial + Navigated FDA eyewear regulations + $30M+ annual revenue milestone + Partnered with 3,500+ doctors' offices + Prioritizes affordability and quality + Strong focus on customer service Thank you, Jon!

Nic Espanet is the founder of Flex Equity Group and host of the Flex Forward Podcast. After two decades as a physical therapist, Nic transitioned into real estate—starting with passive investments before becoming a lead general partner. He's now led eight out of ten multifamily deals across Texas, with a focus on operational systems, investor communication, and market strategy. Through his podcast and syndication work, he helps others build freedom through clarity, consistency, and resilience.     Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here.     Key Takeaways Start as a passive investor to learn best practices and build trust. Your first GP deal might require sacrificing equity to gain credibility. Raising capital today is about thoughtful follow-up, not just email blasts. Real estate's control and tangibility make it more appealing than stocks. Take fast action with underperforming property managers—delay can cost you.     Topics From Healthcare to Real Estate Nic spent 20+ years in physical therapy before pivoting to real estate. Originally planned to invest in single-family homes before discovering multifamily. His first steps were as a passive LP, which taught him how great GPs operate. The GP Transition Joined a Dallas real estate network to meet experienced sponsors. Partnered with a seasoned operator for his first deal and earned credibility through effort. Built his own investor systems based on what he appreciated as an LP. Capital Raising in Today's Market Early deals filled in 2–3 days. Now it often takes weeks of phone calls and reminders. Uses GoHighLevel CRM to track interest, follow-ups, and conversations. Avoids texting new investors due to new legislation (SB140 in Texas). Lessons From the Field During COVID, personally took over a failing asset and drove occupancy from 70% to 90%. Now focuses on Texas secondary markets with population growth and minimal new supply. Attributes success to consistent communication, team alignment, and market adaptability.

An eagerly-awaited serving of TCF as Eddie gets to tell us all about the Dunhill Links experience where he showed more than a few glimpses of what he can do and where he belongs. Partnered with Andy Murray and playing with some of Europe's finest, there were huge crowds, 18 birdies for Eddie and a sizeable contingent of dogs as well as Big Ron and Mad Gazza planning their Saturday night out. A good week was clearly had by all, but where does Eddie go from here? Add to this the news that Eddie was served with a court order and Iain fell over in a kitchen and you can imagine that it is quite the episode.

This week, DB reflects on last week's fantastic conversation with Dr. Claire Perelman. Let's take a moment to really unpack jealousy and envy, no matter if you're ENM or monogamous. What does jealousy say about us -- and what does it not? There's a sense of shame around jealousy that we can move past using our emotional honesty and by naming what we're feeling. Plus: a vocab lesson on jealousy versus envy. They're different! JEALOUSY SCRIPTS YOU CAN STEALWhen jealousy pops up mid-scroll: “Hey love, I'm feeling a jealousy pang. I'm going to take 10 minutes to breathe and journal, then could we do a quick check-in about Friday's plans? I think I need a clearer start/stop time so I can plan something for me.” When you need reassurance without rules: “I'm not asking you to stop seeing them. I'm asking for a reassurance ritual--a goodnight text and a Saturday morning debrief. That would help my nervous system a lot.” When you want to celebrate your partner but still have feels: “I'm happy you had a great date, and I'm noticing some jealousy in me. Could we carve 30 minutes tomorrow for us? I want to reconnect.” Repair after a jealous blow-up: “I got flooded and got snappy. I'm sorry. The story in my head was ‘I'm being replaced.' Here's what I'm going to try next time: pause, breathe, then ask for a check-in.” ABOUT SEASON 12 Season 12 of Sex Ed with DB is ALL ABOUT PLEASURE! Solo pleasure. Partnered pleasure. Orgasms. Porn.

Making wine is capital-intensive. Making traditional method sparkling wine is even more so. From less juice from the grapes to double fermentation to more expensive bottles and taxes, Weston Eidson of recently launched Westborn Wine describes the differences in sparkling production. Detailed Show Notes: Weston's background: >10 years winemaking in Napa (Silver Ghost), family are wine collectors, interned w/ Jason Moore at Modus Operandi (2012), and acquired extra Chardonnay from Steve MatthiassonWestborn was founded in 2018, taking “Grand Cru” or single vineyard level fruit for sparkling wine (e.g., Heintz, Ritchie, Durell vineyards)Partnered w/ Russell Bevan (mentor) and Nathan Reeves (made sparkling in Margaret River)The goal is to start with high-quality wines and layer on complexity with traditional method agingTook 4-5 years to find a stride & hone the winemaking processInitially thought it would be 3 years aging vs 6 for 1st release (2019 1st release; 2018 1st vintage just disgorged mid 2025)SKUs: vintage, Blanc de Blanc, Rose, Non-vintageLuxury priced - $100+Solera method perpetual reserve program, late disgorged release, lead to a lot of capital in inventory2018: 500 cases; 2025 ~1,000 cases; target ~2,000 casesSparkling production costs vs. still wineFruit costs the same (growers love it: less shrivel, gets fruit off earlier - less pest/disease pressure; spreads out the work)Press cuts important, ~25% less gallons/ton vs still wine, as they don't take tailleNeed to make the wine twice: initial fermentation (vin clair), secondary fermentation (bottled with yeast and sugar)Custom crush costs are slightly more expensive due to double fermentationBottles are more costly and need to be bought earlier (~$0.15-20 for a standard bottle; ~$1 for sparkling)Taxes higher: $2.40/gallon for sparkling wine, $0.07/gallon for still wine

In this episode, DB talks with her friend Beatrice (aka Triss) about sex after gender affirming surgery. If you think you know what "bottom surgery" means, you might have more to learn than you think! Hear from Triss about her choice to get an orchiectomy, how the surgery and recovery went for her, and the changes she's experienced since -- plus, her ritual for the wet specimen she took home with her. Between Us is a new episode format where we speak with folks living through what some of our experts from other episodes have discussed! We're excited to bring you more intimate, one-on-one conversations with real people living their real lives about how sex and sex ed impact them every day. Guest Details Beatrice (better known online as Triss) is a Bay Area based Mexican American musician and maker. She's been out as a proudly sapphic trans woman since 2015. As an ADHD brain with an endless thirst for fun facts, Beatrice will happily nerd out over music, video games, DIY electronics, and sex (among other things).  You can catch her tearing up the stage with her band Dirty Twenties (@dirtytwentiesband) and/or watch her solo projects on TikTok (tiktok.com/@trisstunes) and YouTube (youtube.com/trisstunes)."
