J Darrin Gross So if you're willing, I'd like to ask you. Mark Shuler, what is the BIGGEST RISK? Mark Shuler I have a pat answer for that. The biggest risk to real estate is government. That's what I was alluding to. And beginning of this conversation, the West Coast Seattle is as Uber blue as it gets. You have a lot of well meaning city councils and county councils trying to address significant housing crisis that exists throughout the entire country right now. And they, rather than letting the markets Mark operate efficiently. They get in there and they they throw roadblocks in it, and we can't produce enough housing as a consequence, then we have a supply problem, and they enact rent control and other pieces of legislation that make the operation of real estate even more difficult. I That's why I left Seattle. I can't do it here anymore, specifically because of that. So that's one thing you know. You've got to look at the the risk posed by your local government, and see if that you know, if you can develop hedges against that risk. I when I first got into the business, I could do that in western Washington, but they it just became apparent after a while, there was so much legislation being layered on that the hedges were disappearing left and right, and so I made the choice that I couldn't do it here anymore. I had to find marketplaces that were more fair. And also, I will say this is a political side. I mean most politicians, politicize housing as if it's a fight between corporate interests and you know, you know tenants who don't have any control over their lives. You know, that's the nature of renting. Most operators I know are very hard working people and are doing the best they can in a pretty oppressive regulatory environment. There's no cabal of operators out there colluding and setting rents. And Berkeley just learned a big ass lesson about this where they. They tried to sue. Who was it? You know, that online platform, real page, claiming that real page was setting rent prices in the marketplace, and they were like taking them down real page. Those are, those are some tough guys, and they did not back down from a fight. Sued the shit out of Berkeley. Berkeley tucked tail and back down because they knew they were going to lose and lose big. So this issue is very emotional. It gets very politicized. It plays well on an election cycle, and so I just get tired of it. I just want to do my job. I really want to do my job and not have this white noise distraction that I have to deal with. But unfortunately, that's what that's the biggest risk I see in real estate right now. Then you you layer on top of that, this the politics in general, what I what really concerns me. Now, in addition to that, the other big risk is, this is just our political environment. It's so but, you know, bifurcated, and it's so politicized and the conversations are so extreme, there's no more middle ground, and there are only two or three things that control our entire economy, oil and bonds. And you know, if it seems like every time Trump opens his mouth about tariffs, the bond market Spike 25 basis points, I was in the middle of a refi three weeks ago, and he, he kind of went on his tariff tantrum again, cost me $250,000 that's, that's the impact bond rates have on, you know, the cost of doing business. I was in the middle of refi. I had to do nothing but suck it up and, you know, sign that loan in one day, I lost $250,000 on a refund. So government is a, you know, housing is one of the most nuanced and market driven things I can think of. It responds to supply and demand. The players are in it, who are in it, who are really good their market, they're they're watching this all the time. And contrary to popular belief, the margins in real estate are thin. They're not that great. So if the market swings wildly like that, how do you how do you do business? You can't make you can't plan for 612, 18 months down the road, which is that's the long, the length of time we think about. We're thinking in terms of multiple years cycles. And when you have this volatility in marketplace, how do you make business plans? That is in large part why we have such a housing crisis in this country that and the cost of labor, the cost of materials, has spiked dramatically. It's just more expensive to put up housing. But then you layer on all this government nonsense, this is really hard to build housing, and that's and as a consequence, supply, demand being what it is, price of housing goes up, rents go up. I don't know a developer out there that would not love to build affordable housing, but they can't afford to do so. That's my soapbox.   https://www.linkedin.com/in/shulerarchitecture/  

“Do not wait to be perfect.” That is the message AFL-CIO President Liz Shuler has for the next generation of women leaders as we kick off Women's History Month and Women in Construction Week 2026 on the America's Work Force Union Podcast. In this wide-ranging episode, Shuler joins us to discuss the historic momentum of the labor movement, where public support has reached nearly 70 percent. We explore the 2026 WIC Week theme, "Level Up. Build Strong," and discuss how the union advantage provides a more equitable landscape for women in the trades compared to the broader economy. Shuler also pulls back the curtain on the AFL-CIO's fight for worker-centered AI. As technology reshapes the jobsite, she explains why collective bargaining is the ultimate "guardrail" to ensure human oversight, privacy, and shared productivity gains. In this episode, we cover: The evolution of women's leadership from the shop floor to the executive board. How the labor movement is scaling state-level legislation to protect workers from "algorithmic bosses." Advice for women entering male-dominated industries: Finding your voice and building mentorship networks.

Kristen Shuler, President of East-West Ministries International, shares how God shaped her calling to take the gospel to the world's least reached people. Raised in a Christian home with a deep commitment to discipleship and missions, Kristen came to faith at a young age and learned early that obedience to God often comes before visible fruit. Those formative experiences, including years of frontline ministry overseas, continue to anchor her leadership today. At East-West, Kristen helps lead a global network focused on multiplying disciples and churches in spiritually dark places where access to the gospel is limited or nonexistent. Rather than relying on outside control, East-West prioritizes local leadership, obedience-based discipleship, and collaboration across ministries, trusting God to grow lasting movements of faith. Kristen speaks honestly about the cost of faithfulness, the patience required when fruit is slow to appear, and the freedom that comes from surrendering outcomes to God. This conversation offers a hopeful vision for wise stewardship, faithful generosity, and finding your place in God's mission. Listen to explore how obedience, prayer, and collaboration shape lasting Kingdom impact. Major Topics Include: Obedience over visible ministry results Multiplication as a core discipleship DNA Reaching unengaged and unreached people groups Local ownership of the missionary task Obedience based versus knowledge based discipleship Finding joy beyond performance driven ministry Collaboration reshaping global missions strategy Prayer as essential spiritual labor Diverse pathways for Great Commission participation QUOTES TO REMEMBER “The ministry is not about seeing fruit. The ministry is about obedience.” “Even if I didn't see the fruit, I could trust that He was at work.” “The Lord uses every step of obedience and every seed that's planted as part of His ultimate plan.” “Discipleship is not just about gaining knowledge, but about being obedient to the Word of God.” “If I tell somebody what to do, that will fail every time. But when God's Word and the Spirit lead, that's where transformation happens.” “The Great Commission is a God-given mandate for every follower of Jesus to find their place in.” “It's not about choosing what feels comfortable, but responding in obedience to what God is asking.” “The people are waiting to hear. They simply need a laborer to come to them.” “Not a single one of us can accomplish the Great Commission on our own.” “That humility we're seeing across missions organizations is something only the Spirit can do.” “We want to learn, grow, and come with open hands to see what the Lord might do through unity.” “If I'm not abiding in Jesus, I have very little to offer anyone else.” “Do we want to be known for our strategies, or do we want to be known for loving Jesus?” “If we're not marked by our love for Jesus, our strategies will be ineffective.” LINKS FROM THE SHOW East-West Ministries International International Missions Board Coalition of the Willing (see our interviews with founding members Jared Nelms and Scott Cheatham) The Treasure Principle (see our interview with author Randy Alcorn) BIBLE REFERENCES FROM THE SHOW Matthew 28:19–20 | Make Disciples of All Nations Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age. Acts 1:8 | Witness to the Ends But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth. Galatians 5:25 | Keeping in Step with the Spirit If we live by the Spirit, let us also keep in step with the Spirit. Matthew 9:37–38 | The Harvest Is Plentiful Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.” John 15:4–5 | Abide and Bear Fruit Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. John 17:20–23 | Unity That the World May Believe Matthew 6:21 | Treasure and the Heart For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. TAKE A STEP DEEPER On the Finish Line podcast, we are all about stories, seeing how God draws us into generosity over a lifetime.  But sometimes these stories can leave us thinking, “What's that next step look like for me?” That's exactly why we've launched a whole new podcast called Applied Generosity which explores the full landscape of the generous life across 7 different dimensions of generosity.  Applied Generosity helps make sense of the hundreds of stories we've shared on the Finish Line Podcast to help you find that best next step.

Real estate isn't for the faint of heart. Mark Shuler, architect turned multifamily developer with 4,500 units, doesn't sugarcoat it—this business is a grind. After losing a million bucks on one deal, he pivoted to indoor golf simulators and is building ten locations across Phoenix. We dig into government interference, NIMBYism torpedoing projects, and why passion beats profit as your primary driver. Mark's managing 200 employees through a market downturn by focusing on operations, upgrading C-class properties, and adding afterschool tutoring. If you're in this for the long haul, this one's for you.  

Mark Shuler explains why real estate success isn't about intellect or experience—it's about grit, systems, and relentless execution.In this episode of RealDealChat, Mark Shuler—architect turned multifamily syndicator—breaks down what it really takes to scale in commercial real estate.With over $600M in assets, 5,000+ doors, and 200+ employees, Mark shares how he transitioned from being a hired architect to a general partner in large value-add syndications. We dive into deep C-class renovations, workforce housing ethics, supply-chain control, in-house labor models, and why most operators get crushed when assumptions break.Mark also unpacks the current market cycle, the rise of “extend and pretend”, why distress is accelerating, and what disciplined operators are doing right now to prepare for the next acquisition window. We talk hiring mistakes, lease audits, tenant realities, war stories, and why this business rewards those who can grind through uncertainty.This is a candid, no-fluff conversation for investors who want the truth—not the Instagram version—of multifamily real estate.

“This cycle will separate real operators from everyone else.” In this episode, Mark Shuler delivers an unfiltered breakdown of the multifamily market reset—and why 2026 is shaping up to be a defining year for investor returns. Drawing on more than three decades of operating experience and a portfolio exceeding $300M AUM, Mark walks through how the easy-credit era masked weak operations, why cap rates and valuations have structurally reset, and what happens next as loans mature, DSCRs collapse, and lenders finally force resolution. From bond markets and interest rates to supply gluts, operating cost pressures, and the coming wave of distressed sales, this conversation connects macro forces directly to Main Street deal performance. If you're an investor or entrepreneur trying to understand where risk truly sits—and where opportunity may emerge as weaker operators wash out—this episode is essential listening. 5 Key Takeaways from This EpisodeThe “easy money” era hid bad operators Artificially low interest rates allowed weak underwriting and poor operations to survive, inflating values and compressing cap rates beyond sustainable levels. This is a reset—not a 2008-style collapse Liquidity still exists, but higher interest rates and rising cap rates have permanently changed valuations, forcing deals to reprice to historical norms. Loan maturities are the real pressure point Many deals from 2019–2021 cannot refinance due to lower values and insufficient NOI, making “extend and pretend” no longer viable as 2026 approaches. Operations now matter more than financial engineering Rising expenses, labor challenges, insurance, taxes, and vacancy pressures mean only strong, vertically integrated operators will attract lender confidence. Opportunity favors prepared capital and proven operators As distressed assets hit the market, well-capitalized groups with operational depth will acquire at significantly lower bases before large institutions step in. About Tim MaiTim Mai is a real estate investor, fund manager, mentor, and founder of HERO Mastermind for REI coaches.He has helped many real estate investors and coaches become millionaires.

Whether it's postpartum recovery, the lines and silver hairs of aging, or the cultural pressure to stay youthful and thin, body image struggles are not just for teenagers. This episode of The Holistic Healing Podcast is for Christian women who want to align their view of their bodies with God's Word and experience freedom from comparison and self-criticism. Today's guest, Kasey Shuler, author of Love Beyond Looks: A Five-Week Bible Study on Body Image, shares how to: Anchor your self-worth in God's unchanging truth Navigate postpartum and aging with gratitude instead of shame Help your kids build a Christ-centered body image Identify and replace negative self-talk with Scripture Break free from the thin ideal and media-driven beauty standards If you want to see yourself as fearfully and wonderfully made, this conversation will equip you with biblical truth, practical tools, and a renewed perspective on your body. Episode Highlights: Faith-Based Body Image Tips and Truths [00:31] Why body image is more than a teenage struggle — Kasey shares her postpartum experience and why women at every age need a biblical perspective. [01:26] The God who never changes — Why your worth must be rooted in God's character, not fluctuating body changes. [03:18] The cultural obsession with youth — How beauty ideals affect self-worth and why the church should address them. [04:42] Smile lines as joy lines — Seeing aging as evidence of a life lived in gratitude and grace. [07:06] Postpartum compassion — Learning to honor your body for the miracles it has carried instead of criticizing it. [08:06] Three main influences on body image — Family, peers, and media—and how to replace harmful influences with biblical truth. [10:48] Psalm 139:14 in real life — How to actually live out the truth of being fearfully and wonderfully made.

Aging is evidence of grace — Lines, wrinkles, and gray hair can be reminders of joy, wisdom, and God's provision. Gratitude changes perspective — Thank God for what your body has done and continues to do. Know your influences — Family, peers, and media shape body image—replace harmful messages with biblical ones. Scripture renews your mind — Verses like Psalm 139:14 and 2 Corinthians 4:16 are powerful tools against body shame.

Resources & Links Mentioned Book: Love Beyond Looks: A Five-Week Bible Study on Body Image by Kasey Shuler — Available on Amazon Website & Coaching: joyfulhealth.co — Intuitive health coaching by grace Instagram: @joyfulhealthco Other books by Kasey Shuler: Rest and Rise, Move for Joy, Aligned Frequently Asked Questions: Christian Body Image & Biblical Self-Worth Q: What does the Bible say about body image? The Bible teaches that God looks at the heart rather than outward appearance (1 Samuel 16:7) and that we are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14). Your worth comes from being created in God's image, not from meeting cultural beauty standards. Q: How can Christian women overcome postpartum body shame? Postpartum body changes are part of God's design. Shift your perspective by thanking God for what your body has accomplished, such as carrying and nurturing life. Replace negative self-talk with Scripture, and focus on caring for your body out of gratitude rather than trying to “bounce back.” Q: How can I embrace aging as a Christian? Aging is a visible reminder of God's grace and the life He has given you. Scripture calls gray hair a crown of glory (Proverbs 16:31). Focus on spiritual renewal (2 Corinthians 4:16) and view smile lines and other signs of aging as evidence of joy and wisdom. Q: How do I teach my kids a healthy, biblical body image? Avoid appearance-based compliments and focus on character, kindness, and perseverance. Address unrealistic portrayals in media, celebrate body diversity, and remind your children that God created their bodies on purpose and with care. Q: How do I replace negative body image thoughts with God's truth? Identify the source of the negative thought (family, peers, or media) and then replace it with a relevant Bible verse. Keep verses like Psalm 139:14 or 1 Corinthians 6:19–20 visible—on your mirror, phone background, or journal—and repeat them regularly until they take root.   Faith-Fueled Wellness Quiz: Find out where you are on your wellness journey and get a custom podcast playlist filled with insight, inspiration, and motivation to help you move toward more energy, thriving health, and lasting peace — all in alignment with God's design. tinyurl.com/christianhealthquiz   Free Community tinyurl.com/holisticsisterhood   Book (Discover God's Health Wisdom: Exposing 8 Common Myths That Keep You Sick) www.herholistichealing.com/book   Holistic Health Coaching www.herholistichealing.com/coaching   Website www.herholistichealing.com   E-mail hello@herholistichealing.com
