In this podcast episode, we dive deep into why women often struggle with analysis paralysis in real estate investing. As female investors, we understand the psychological barriers that hold us back - from social conditioning to perfectionism and fear of making mistakes. We share practical strategies for overcoming these challenges, including creating a precise investment Buy Box, starting with low-risk properties, and tracking personal wins and lessons learned. We emphasize how critical community support is in transforming hesitation into confident action. Through our personal stories and experiences from successful female investors, we reveal that second-guessing is normal but shouldn't prevent wealth building. We encourage you to trust your own research, embrace imperfect first investments, and take bold steps in real estate. Our key message this week is simple: you don't need to be perfect to start investing. Whether it's a small duplex or a partnership investment, taking action is more important than waiting for the ideal moment. We've learned that surrounding yourself with supportive investors can dramatically shift your mindset and accelerate your investment journey. By understanding these barriers and implementing strategic tools, women can confidently build their real estate portfolios and create lasting financial success.

One of Mayor Mike Johnston's biggest priorities this year is showing Denverites how much better 16th St. looks post-construction.

Former Republican congressional candidate Valdamar Archuleta joins producers Paul Karolyi and Olivia Jewell Love to talk about the mayor's downtown shopping spree.

In this episode, Jack Martin, founder of 52Ten, shares how he raised over $60M and built a $145M portfolio of mobile home parks across five states. From his first unexpected deal that turned into a “light bulb moment” to today's institutional-quality acquisitions, Jack walks us through the strategies that deliver strong, stable returns for investors.

devocional Lucas leitura bíblica E dois criminosos foram levados para serem executados no mesmo local, chamado “A Caveira”. Aí foram crucificados os três; Jesus ao centro e os dois criminosos um de cada lado. E Jesus dizia: “Pai, perdoa-lhes, porque não sabem o que fazem!” Entretanto, os soldados lançavam sortes para ver quem ficaria com as suas roupas. A multidão assistia à cena e os líderes judaicos riam-se e faziam troça. “Ajudava tanto os outros”, diziam. “Vamos a ver se se salva a si mesmo, se é realmente o Cristo, o escolhido de Deus.” Também os soldados troçavam dele. E deram-lhe vinho azedo a beber, gritando-lhe: “Se és o rei dos judeus, salva-te a ti mesmo!” Por cima dele estava esta inscrição: este é o rei dos judeus. Lucas 23.32-38 devocional Jesus, por muito que até hoje custe a acreditar, foi julgado como se de um criminoso Se tratasse. A sentença capital recaiu sobre Ele ainda que o amor fosse a mola da Sua vida e estivesse inocente de qualquer atentado à dignidade humana. Esteve ladeado de bandidos na hora de extremo sofrimento e, no entanto, da Sua boca não saiu nenhum grito de indignação. A única coisa que Dele se ouviu foi: “Pai, perdoa-lhes, que não sabem o que fazem!” Que extravagância de amor! Jesus ousou sofrer de forma desmedida para salvar gente completamente escangalhada e perdida. Ninguém ficou de fora da Sua graça. Todos foram abarcados pela Sua generosidade. O Seu perdão foi extensivo dos acusadores aos zombadores, tanto os de lá de trás como os de agora. Nenhuma ridicularização pode tapar as palavras certeiras do famoso letreiro no topo da cruz: “Este é o Rei!” - jónatas figueiredo Oramos para que este tempo com Deus te encoraje e inspire. Dá a ti próprio espaço para processar as tuas notas e a tua oração e sai apenas quando te sentires preparado.

Ward ihr schon mal irgendwo neu? Wenn man neu ist, sind Freunde das A und O. So geht es auch dem Löwen. Er ist umgezogen und sucht nun Freunde. Doch das ist leichter gesagt als getan. In dieser spannenden Folge haben wir Autorin Lucy Astner zu Gast. Wir hatten eine Menge Spaß bei der Aufnahme, und ihr hoffentlich beim Zuhören!Löwe ist neu in der Gegend und sucht einen Freund. Was hat seine Mama immer gesagt: Sei nett und zeig dich von deiner besten Seite! Doch als Löwe das Zebra mit einem strahlenden Raubtierlächeln begrüßt, kommt das gar nicht gut an. Und auch Hund und Eichhörnchen nehmen Reißaus vor Löwes Überschwang. Erst als Löwe einen Gang zurückschaltet, sich entschuldigt und zur Rollschuhparty mit Gemüsesuppe einlädt, ist er erfolgreich! Am Abend hat Löwe gleich zwei Dinge gelernt: Dass man nicht immer alles richtig machen muss, solange man das Herz auf dem rechten Fleck hat. Und: dass Mütter nicht immer recht haben! Eine löwenstarke Geschichte über das Freunde-Finden."Löwe sucht einen Freund - oder: Ich hab dich zum Fressen gern" könnt ihr als Hardcover erwerben.

Anekdotisch Evident. Kultur und Wissenschaft durchs Prisma der Plauderei
gefallenDas Bedürfnis, zu gefallen und es anderen immer recht zu machen, kennen viele Frauen. Auch Katrin. Es könnte einfach nur eine nette Eigenschaft netter Menschen sein, wenn es nicht regelmäßig zu Selbstverleugnung und Selbstverlust führen würde. In der Psychologie gibt es dafür sogar einen Begriff: fawning. Statt zu kämpfen, Reißaus zu nehmen oder zu erstarren (fight, flight, freeze), versuchen wir, durch rehäugige Freundlichkeiten die Situation zu entschärfen. Kurzfristig mag das wirksam sein, doch es lohnt sich, einen genauen Blick auf die Ursachen und langfristigen Konsequenzen dieses Verhaltens zu werfen.FaschismusFaschismus ist ein starkes Wort und wird bisweilen als „Nazi-Keule“ benutzt. Doch mit Blick auf die USA sollten wir die Fraglichkeit des Begriffs nochmal überdenken, findet Alexandra. Denn die offene Befürwortung von Gewalt, der Versuch, Demokratie und Rechtsstaatlichkeit auszuhöhlen und eine fast religiöse Verehrung von Technologie waren seit jeher Merkmale faschistischer Systeme. Gerade KI-Ideologien in Verbindung mit dem Wirken rechter politischer Kräfte könnten uns in Schwierigkeiten bringen, wenn wir nicht aktiv ein Mitspracherecht fordern. Bitte und DankeNoch immer kostet die Produktion von anekdotisch evident mehr, als wir derzeit einnehmen. Wenn ihr könnt, werft doch gern ein paar Euro in einen unserer Hüte. DANKE an alle, die schon dabei sind

In dieser sehr ehrlichen Folge nehme ich DICH mit hinter die Kulissen: Welche Business-Entscheidungen mich wirklich weitergebracht haben – und wie ich 15.000 € versenkt habe. Ohne Drama, aber mit klaren Learnings, damit DU ähnliche Fehler vermeidest und schneller vorankommst.Transparenter Real Talk: Warum „von Außen draufschauen“ sinnvoll ist – und wann „One-Size-Fits-All“ richtig teuer wird!Meine Red Flags (aus Erfahrung): Woran DU schon vor Vertragsunterschrift erkennst, ob ein Coaching/Programm zu DIR passt.Zeit ≠ Output: Warum „300 Videos schauen“ selten Umsatz bringt – und wie DU stattdessen Ergebnis-Meilensteine einforderst.Selbstvertrauen upgraden: Weshalb DU wahrscheinlich mehr weißt, als DU denkst – und wie DU das im Business klug nutzt.Individuell statt Schablone: Buche nur, wenn DIR schriftlich zugesichert wird, dass Dein Business individuell analysiert und begleitet wird (kein Einheits-Funnel).Leistungsumfang schwarz auf weiß: Lass Dir konkret zusagen: Welche Leistungen? Welche Deliverables? Welche Feedback-Zyklen? Welche Reaktionszeit?Zeitbudget vorab klären: Wie viele Stunden pro Woche sind realistisch nötig? Passt das in DEINEN Kalender – ohne dass Dein laufendes Geschäft leidet?Ergebnis-Meilensteine statt Konsum: Definiere Outcome-Meilensteine (z. B. Sales-Page final, Angebot validiert, 3 Leads/Woche) statt „x Module ansehen“.Proof statt Hochglanz: Hol echte Referenzen aus Deinem Netzwerk ein (DMs, Voice, kurzer Call). Verlass Dich nicht nur auf perfekt kuratierte Bewertungen.Reißleine-Regel: Vereinbare Ausstiegsszenarien (z. B. Nachbesserung/Teil-Refund), wenn vereinbarte Meilensteine nicht geliefert werden.Money & Mindset: Investieren ja – aber nicht, um ein Kompetenz-Gefühl zu „kaufen“. DU bringst die Expertise mit; Unterstützung muss beschleunigen, nicht ersetzen. Ziele & Kennzahlen klar (Was soll sich in 90 Tagen messbar verändern?) Individuelle Roadmap & Deliverables schriftlich fixiert Zeitaufwand/Wochenstunden realistisch geplant 2–3 unabhängige Referenzen gesprochen Meilensteine + Eskalationspfad vereinbart Vertrag spiegelt alle Zusagen wirklich wider00:00 Intro & Kontext03:12 Warum ich externe Hilfe wollte09:45 Die „Falle“: Viel Content, wenig Umsetzung17:30 Die entscheidenden Red Flags24:10 Mein größtes Learning (Selbstvertrauen & Fokus)30:05 Deine Checkliste für kluge Investitionen34:20 Fazit & EinladungSo findest Du Anja Grigoleit:Ein persönlicher Kennenlerntermin mit Anja Grigoleit kann hier gebucht werden (0 Euro): https://calendly.com/deinsupport/20minAnja Grigoleits Webseite kann hier besucht werden: www.anjagrigoleit.deFür Anja Grigoleits monatlichen Newsletter kann man sich hier anmelden: https://grigoleitberatung.activehosted.com/f/11Anja Grigoleit kann jetzt auf Instagram gefolgt werden, um immer dabei zu sein, wenn es tolle Tech News gibt: https://www.instagram.com/anja_grigoleit_official/Bei Interesse an einer Zusammenarbeit mit Anja Grigoleit kann ihr eine E-Mail geschickt werden an: kontakt@anjagrigoleit.deOder ruf direkt durch bei Anja: 0176 22855245

Welcome to Fertility & Sterility Roundtable! Each month, we will host a discussion with the authors of "Views and Reviews" and "Fertile Battle" articles published in a recent issue of Fertility & Sterility. This month, we welcome Dr. Lydia Hughes and Dr. Eric Widra to discuss the ethics of egg-sharing, or "split-cycles" for fertility preservation. This is where an egg donor freezes their eggs for their own future use for reduced or no cost in exchange for donating a portion of the cohort. Dr. Hughes is a second-year REI fellow at Northwestern University in Chicago, where she also completed her residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology. She earned her medical degree from the University of Alabama at Birmingham. Dr. Hughes's clinical and academic interests include reproductive ethics, PCOS, and ovarian aging. Dr. Widra currently serves as Executive Senior Medical officer and Vice President, Development for Shady Grove Fertility and US Fertility, respectively. He was formerly Chief Medical Officer of SG Fertility, and Associate Director of the Combined Federal Fellowship in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility, operated through the NIH, Walter Reed National Military Medical Center and SG Fertility.

Paul Hendricks is the Executive Director of the Conservation Alliance, a coalition of more than 270 businesses working together to protect wild places across North America. Founded nearly four decades ago by Patagonia, REI, The North Face, and Kelty, the Conservation Alliance has grown into one of the most important forces in conservation—pooling dollars, influence, and a collective business voice to support grassroots campaigns that keep public lands and waters healthy for generations to come. At a time when those places are under constant pressure, the Conservation Alliance is showing that businesses don't have to sit on the sidelines—they can be a powerful part of the solution. Paul's own path to this role winds through some of the most interesting corners of the conservation and environmental worlds. After earning a few advanced degrees, he started at Global Greengrants Fund, working with grassroots activists around the globe. He then joined Patagonia's legendary environmental team, where he learned firsthand how a company can weave values into every decision. From there he helped build sustainability programs at Rivian, tackling the climate footprint of a car company from the inside. And woven through all of that is a through-line of humility, service, and adventure. In this conversation, Paul and I talk about the roots of his love for the outdoors, the mentors and lessons that shaped his career, and what it's like to step into the hot seat as a first-time executive director. We dig into the Conservation Alliance's mission and why business advocacy matters, the current threats facing public lands, and how Paul stays grounded in turbulent times. We also talk about family, leadership, failure, and why hope is not just possible but necessary. It's a candid, thoughtful conversation with someone who's not only shaping the future of conservation, but doing it with humility, persistence, and just enough humor to keep it human. I've had the privilege of knowing Paul for almost 15 years–we met when he first moved to Colorado, became running and climbing partners, and have logged more hours together in the mountains and had more meaningful conversations than I can count. Watching him grow into this role has been inspiring, both for the positions he's held and for the way he's carried himself along the way. --- Paul Hendricks The Conservation Alliance Full episode notes and links: https://mountainandprairie.com/paul-hendricks/ --- TOPICS DISCUSSED: 2:37 – Intro, Ed's one running partner 4:03 – How the outdoors has shaped Paul's career 6:48 – Plan post-college 12:41 – Sunk-cost fallacy 14:22 – Global Greengrants Fund 17:05 – Learning from Rick Ridgeway 20:23 – Lessons from Patagonia 24:25 – Ready for a new challenge 30:00 – Laid off at Rivian 36:02 – Being in charge 38:01 – The Conservation Alliance history 43:07 – TCA within public lands threats 48:58 – What's missing from the public lands story? 51:49 – Paul's role as a leader 56:14 – Role models 59:04 – Getting outdoors now 1:01:10 – Book recs 1:03:09 – 1% for the Planet collab 1:05:14 – Wrapping up --- ABOUT MOUNTAIN & PRAIRIE: Mountain & Prairie - All Episodes Mountain & Prairie Shop Mountain & Prairie on Instagram Upcoming Events About Ed Roberson Support Mountain & Prairie Leave a Review on Apple Podcasts
