While baijiu is celebrated as China's national spirit and wine is steadily gaining popularity, yellow wine—known locally as Huangjiu—constitutes less than 2% of the country's total alcoholic beverage market. Nevertheless, it holds a distinctive place in Chinese drinking culture.With a history spanning over 2,500 years, Huangjiu is among the world's oldest alcoholic drinks, yet it remains relatively obscure outside of China. Today, Simon Zhou, founder of Ruby Red Fine Wine, is here to share the story of Huangjiu. Recognized as one of Forbes China's most admired figures in the food and beverage sector, Simon started with a two-person operation, which has since expanded to a team of over 160 by 2024. Ruby Red Wine Group now operates multiple offices both in China and internationally, representing more than 300 global brands, from fine wines to premium sake. Its clientele includes leading hospitality venues, specialty distributors, and passionate wine collectors.In 2022, Simon launched Vintry France, a négociant business in Beaune, France. The following year, he invested in a boutique winery in northeast China and co-founded a rice wine production base in Shaoxing. By 2024, he had also overseen the launch of Domaine 41, a modern wine retail venture in Shanghai. Beyond his business endeavors, Simon actively educates others about wine, engaging over 60,000 followers across various social media platforms. He is now focusing some of his efforts on Huangjiu, and in this episode, we'll explore this intriguing beverage that has graced imperial courts, complemented seasonal delicacies, and is now resonating with contemporary consumers.Connect with Simon Zhou at www.rubyred.com.cn Since 2016, Bottled in China brings you into the food and drink scene through conversations with the some of the most happening personalities.

What if the real reason high-achieving leaders plateau has nothing to do with drive, strategy, or mindset—but something deeper, hardwired into the brain's survival instincts? In this episode, our host Denise Cagan is joined by a fascinating guest, and together they uncover the invisible ceiling that holds leaders back, even when they're doing everything right. Mitch Weisburgh, creator of the Mind Shifting Method, joins the show to discuss his innovative approach to revealing how unconscious survival patterns sabotage success. He explains how leaders can rewire their internal operating system to lead, decide, and scale without burning out.

Recognized by Thinkers50 as one of the most influential voices in technology, economy, and leadership, he is the founder and chairman of Njordis Group, a venture firm committed to enabling positive progress for humanity.As the commercialization of humanoid robotics gathers pace, Indset warns of the societal and existential consequences of systems that are increasingly capable of replicating human thought and behavior. In a landscape shaped by exponential transformation, where risks and possibilities unfold simultaneously, he argues for a new mindset: organizations as learning systems, guided by innovation and shaped by ethical cultures rooted in trust, change, and friction.

In this insightful episode, Michael D. Levitt explores the Square Management System Alignment Model, a framework by Matthew Person designed to foster organizational alignment without the need for micromanagement. Developed by Matthew from Town Square Advisors, this model is grounded in real-world executive and M&A experience. It focuses on aligning employee beliefs and behaviors with company systems to prevent culture drift and enable long-term, sustainable growth. Michael underscored the urgent need for such systems, sharing examples of organizations that significantly improved through alignment—not turnover—by earning employee trust and recognizing internal capability. The Power of “Constrained Independence” Matthew introduced the concept of constrained independence, a four-part management model built on Identity, Instruction, Intercommunication, and Information, with ten key operational elements. This framework helps leaders strike a balance between empowering staff and maintaining clarity. Listeners were invited to assess their own organizations using a free quiz at TownSquareAdvisors.com. Michael emphasized the importance of continuous monitoring and cultural measurement—warning that top-down approaches to diversity and alignment can sometimes lead to unintended tension unless rooted in authenticity and openness. Lessons from Championship Teams Drawing from professional sports, Michael shared a compelling analogy about leadership, team culture, and performance. While the 1990s New York Yankees focused on acquiring high-priced talent, it was the Boston Red Sox's commitment to balanced teams and deep culture, under leaders like Tito Francona, that ultimately led to their championships. The lesson? A deep bench, clear roles, and trust in your team's abilities drive real, repeatable success. Trust, Decision-Making, and Human-Centered Leadership Trust emerged as a recurring theme—especially in how it empowers independent decision-making and employee engagement. Matthew contrasted toxic, high-constraint workplaces with cultures that reward initiative. Michael reflected on his own experience of being hired for his potential, not just his résumé, and how adaptable systems that honor both organizational needs and individual strengths pave the way for high-performance cultures. Hiring, Retention, and Thriving Work Environments With over 18 years of leadership experience, Michael emphasized the importance of cultivating an environment where employees can grow, not just work. Culture isn't one-size-fits-all—it's about designing systems and environments where your people can thrive. He challenged the myth of a “correct culture,” advocating instead for cultural authenticity and values-based alignment tailored to each organization. Ethical Offboarding and Supporting Career Growth When it comes to letting people go, Michael shared his values-driven approach: treat exits with dignity, and support people in finding better fits elsewhere. Drawing on personal experiences from both sides of the table, he emphasized the long-term value of trust, transparency, and doing what's best for the individual, even when it's a tough call. Culture Meets Data: Using Analytics to Lead Smarter To round out the discussion, Matthew dove into how the Square Management System uses analytics to assess culture across various organizational levels. This diagnostic tool is especially helpful for startups and mission-driven entrepreneurs aiming to build cohesive teams from the start. The system doesn't promise perfection, but it delivers clarity—giving leaders the actionable insights they need to close culture gaps, improve communication, and align operations with purpose.

Spa franchise growth is evolving beyond the basics of service menus and storefront expansion. Today, the most successful wellness brands scale by blending luxury with purpose—offering not just treatments, but experiences that restore, connect, and inspire. One brand leading this shift is Spavia Day Spa, founded by Allison Langenderfer. What began as a single-location concept has grown into a nationwide franchise known for elevated guest experiences, thoughtfully curated retail, and a culture deeply rooted in care. In the world of franchising, many chase unit growth without laying the cultural or operational foundation to support it. Spavia flipped that model. From the beginning, Allison built the brand around intention—delivering consistent, high-end spa services while fostering connection between guests, team members, and franchise owners. That clarity of purpose has become a major driver of Spavia's franchise growth, helping the brand stand out in a saturated industry. Allison's path to launching a wellness franchise wasn't traditional. Her background includes a successful run as a Macy's buyer, followed by a decade in pharmaceutical sales. That experience gave her a strong foundation in operations, customer engagement, and market strategy—all skills she now channels into leading Spavia. But what really sets her leadership apart is a strong emotional intelligence and unwavering focus on community. Whether it's through the brand's nonprofit initiative, Spavia Cares, or their dedication to franchisee support, the company's mission goes beyond profit—it's about impact. Spa franchise growth requires more than just a great treatment menu. Spavia places significant emphasis on guest experience—from the curated arrival ritual to the tranquil spa environment and personalized service. Each location is designed to offer a high-end, boutique feel while staying approachable and community-focused. This attention to detail has fueled word-of-mouth buzz and repeat visits, while also giving franchise owners a proven model to plug into. As the wellness space becomes more crowded, differentiation matters more than ever. Spavia's approach includes an expertly developed retail program, a market-driven service lineup, and strong national branding that still allows room for local connection. Franchisees aren't just operators—they're partners, empowered with tools and support that help them maintain brand standards while customizing for their markets. That balance is a key ingredient in scalable success and a foundational principle in Spavia's growth strategy. The heart of Spavia's spa franchise growth lies in its people. From estheticians to guest advisors to franchise owners, culture and connection drive performance. The company places a strong emphasis on training, empowerment, and creating a workplace where employees can thrive. That translates directly into the guest experience—warm, consistent, and tailored. Franchisees benefit from a model that's been tested, refined, and supported with systems. Spavia's leadership has intentionally built an infrastructure to scale, not just in size but in depth. As more entrepreneurs look to enter the wellness space, Spavia offers an opportunity to join a brand that's not just growing, but growing the right way. For those exploring franchise opportunities or seeking to lead with purpose in the health and wellness industry, Spavia stands as a prime example of how mission-driven values and a refined guest experience can fuel long-term success.
