In this episode, Caroline and Liz talk with artist and product designer Susan Hable. Susan is the co-founder of the Athens, Georgia-based design studio Hable Construction, which she runs with her sister, Katherine. Celebrating 27 years in business, Susan's work spans lighting, furniture, fine art, textiles, and jewelry, all rooted in her bold, hand-painted patterns and joyful sense of color. Susan joins the show to discuss her 20-plus-year partnership with lifestyle brand Garnet Hill, her artistic origins, her approach to building an intentional art collection, and the story behind her historic 1905 home. Key Takeaways from the Episode The Power of Small Patterns: While large expressions are artistic, small, tightly repeated patterns—like Hable Construction's iconic, best-selling "Beads" print—have a unique, calming effect that anchors a space. Small patterns add excellent grounding texture on everything from seat cushions to linens. Trust the Emotional Value of Art: When collecting art, buy pieces that speak directly to your heart and make you feel a specific emotion, rather than shopping for what is trendy. If original art is out of your budget, high-quality prints, art books, and local school or community art auctions are excellent alternatives. Design with Out-of-Print Inspiration: Rather than relying exclusively on the internet, Susan builds a personal library of physical books, estate sale finds, and historical reference materials to inform her custom textile patterns and landscape aesthetics. Building a Historical Garden: For her 1905 home, Susan designed a garden mirroring traditional Victorian landscapes, prioritizing an organic mix of loose, "floppy" movements (like anemones and Gaura) bordered by clean, tight lines.

Join Udi Lazimy, Founder & CEO of FUDI Protein, for a conversation on what may be the most important protein opportunity hiding in plain sight — and why the food industry has been routing it through a cow instead of putting it on your plate.After leading Sourcing and Sustainability at Eat Just — makers of Just Mayo and Just Egg — Udi saw firsthand how fragile and opaque alternative protein supply chains had become. His answer was FUDI: a food and agtech startup built on regenerative American-grown alfalfa, near-field mobile processing, and a circular model that returns byproducts to farmers as premium feed. The result is RuBisCO — the most abundant protein on Earth — unlocked for human food for the first time at commercial scale.In this episode, we get into the science, the supply chain logic, the crowdfunding strategy, and what it really takes to build a protein company that can rival egg white and whey on performance, price, and sustainability.

METRO generates more than €2 billion in annual sales with non-food products. But there is far more to pots, pans and crockery than just a complementary product range.

In this episode, I speak with Alexis Maudelonde, Senior Vice President Global Non-food at METRO, about the reorientation of METRO's non-food business. He explains how a centrally managed assortment, common sourcing and a clear end-to-end approach ensure greater efficiency and better availability, and how Supply Chain and Sales are being more closely integrated. Finally, things get personal. Alexis shares his Sound Souvenir with us, which reflects his passion for gastronomy and shows what non-food really means at METRO.

Health data affects artificial intelligence in important ways. Camille Nebeker, Ed.D., M.S., UC San Diego, explains why ethically sourced data is foundational to building trustworthy, AI-ready health data repositories. Nebeker examines how ethical sourcing applies across the full data lifecycle, including consent, governance, transparency, data quality, privacy, stewardship, and community engagement. She also shows how ideas from supply chain management and value sensitive design help teams identify ethical tensions and improve decision-making. This work helps explain why ethics cannot be added at the end of AI development and points toward more accountable data practices that support public trust and stronger downstream performance.

The current landscape of the home furnishings industry has become increasingly precarious, as recent developments in trade policy have introduced a series of complex challenges that demand our immediate attention. A new customs crackdown, alongside a sweeping tariff proposal impacting sixty nations, has significantly elevated the stakes for businesses reliant on a global supply chain. Furthermore, the multitude of billions in refund claims now ensnared in legal uncertainty adds another layer of unpredictability to an already tumultuous financial environment. As we delve into the implications of these changes, it becomes evident that the principles of sourcing, pricing, and margin discipline are poised to be rigorously tested once more. We must approach the coming weeks with a proactive mindset, leveraging the opportunity for engagement during the public comment period on tariffs to advocate for our interests and to navigate through these turbulent times with strategic foresight.Takeaways:The recent proposal for new tariffs from the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative poses significant challenges for the home furnishings industry, potentially raising costs across numerous product categories.A multitude of new regulations and compliance requirements are expected to increase scrutiny on import practices and could lead to delays and additional expenses for retailers.Macy's recent performance indicates a shift in consumer behavior, where rising prices have led to a noticeable decline in demand for mid-tier furniture products, necessitating strategic adjustments by retailers.The acquisition of Leggett and Platt by Somni Group signals a consolidation in the bedding supply chain, which may affect component availability and pricing in the near future.The ongoing legal disputes regarding tariff refunds highlight the unpredictable financial environment for importers, complicating their planning processes amidst changing regulations.As the market evolves, retailers must adapt to a K-shaped economic recovery, focusing on cost management and diverse financing options to better serve value-sensitive consumers.

What if AI Actually Costs More Than Humans?   The headcount reduction mandate has landed on your desk: replace talent with AI and cut costs. But beneath the vendor demos and boardroom promises lies a dangerous assumption - that artificial intelligence is automatically cheaper than human expertise.   What if the token economics tell a different story?   Join us for a provocative livestream that flips the AI narrative and protects your workforce strategy.   • The hidden maths of token consumption -and why projected savings evaporate at scale   • Why cost-per-inference is rarely modelled against fully-loaded employee costs in vendor ROI   • Talent attrition: when top performers leave because they see AI replacement unfolding   • Quality degradation and the invisible cost of human-in-the-loop error correction   • Vendor lock-in: how API pricing volatility turns fixed labor into unpredictable OpEx   • The productivity paradox: why AI-augmented teams outperform pure replacement strategies   • Compliance blind spots: liability, bias audits, and regulatory costs headcount never triggered   • Retraining debt: the unbudgeted expense of prompt engineering and system maintenance   • The competitive cost of hollow teams when institutional knowledge walks out the door   • Frameworks to model true total cost of AI ownership before approving any reduction-in-force   This is not an anti-AI argument - it is a financial reality check for leaders pressured to cut first and calculate later.

A 1970s spy thriller shouldn't look gray—and Anastasia Magoutas explains how color, character, and costume rewrite the Cold War. Costume designer Anastasia Magoutas joins Voice of Costume to discuss designing PONIES for Peacock, starring Emilia Clarke and Haley Lu Richardson, and how she built a vibrant, stylish, emotionally grounded 1970s spy world. Raised in Queens by Greek immigrant parents, Anastasia shares how curiosity, theater, art school, NYU, and hands-on collaboration shaped her path from acting and directing into costume design. She breaks down the creative philosophy behind the show: rejecting the flat "gray Soviet filter" often used in Cold War stories and instead creating a world full of color, humor, danger, aspiration, and real people living complicated lives. Anastasia dives into sourcing vintage 1970s fashion, using LA and European costume houses, building hero coats, duplicating key garments for stunts, and finding the difference between American casual cool and European vintage elegance. The episode also explores the contrast between Bea and Twyla—one precise, polished, and controlled; the other rebellious, chaotic, and "the right kind of wrong." Anastasia shares how trust, long-term creative relationships, fear, perfectionism, and community helped her deliver a costume world that feels cinematic, character-driven, and unforgettable. The "Voice of Costume" is the first podcast created between working costume designers sharing stories, inspiration, struggles, and insights into the creative career of costume design. A behind-the-scenes podcast to showcase the voices of Costume Designers around the world. Listen in on this inspirational, one-on-one conversation with Catherine Baumgardner.

In this episode, Michael speaks with chef Sam Jett about building restaurants that serve communities, people, and the planet.Sam shares how he shifted from a planned healthcare path into cooking, credits McDonald's for teaching standards and systems, and recounts formative time in Copenhagen kitchens including Relæ and Noma.After years as Sean Brock's right-hand leader across multiple brands, Sam took over Audrey and refocused it on Appalachian heritage: removing luxury imported ingredients, tightening sourcing “guardrails,” and adopting a zero-waste mindset.He describes a network of about 26 regional farms/producers supplying roughly 95% of the menu and a CSA-style budgeting approach where farmers send what they choose, including imperfect crops that the team transforms using the restaurant's lab.Sam explains making the economics work through circular “mini-ecosystems” and multiple revenue streams, and emphasizes relationships and trust as the core leadership principle.Connect with Sam:https://www.instagram.com/samuel.jett/?hl=enhttps://www.audreynashville.com/Connect with the podcastJoin the Hospitality Mavericks newsletterTune in via your favourite podcast platform - here More episodes for you to check out here A big thank you to our episode sponsor Monotree.They help hospitality operators strengthen operations and scale company culture by creating a "Branded Front Door" for your workforce.Head to their website to sign up.This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podcorn - https://podcorn.com/privacy

Most New Yorkers and many of the 63 million people who visit New York each year as tourists will connect the words "Cookshop," "Shuka," and "Vic's" as outstanding restaurants and part of a chain owned by Marc Meyer. But Meyer admittedly is more than a cook. His vision of community, food and the people who prepare and serve it drove him to not only engage his workers at a deeper level than most owners, but to write a fascinating book: Voices from the Kitchen: Personal Narratives from New York's Immigrant Restaurant Workers. (Beacon Press). In this episode of "Soul of the City" Meyer talks about this and his commitment to sourcing locally, seasonally and sustainably – and the importance of immigrants to it all! In this edition of The INTELLIGENT Community Interview, ICF Co-Founder Lou Zacharilla speaks with Marc Meyer, author, "Voices from the Kitchen."

Wowie! So many excellent fragrances to get your noses around in this episode, it was difficult to know where to begin. But with so many to explore we started with a recap of the recent barnstorming success of Barnes Fragrance Fair...We talked through Suzy's choices for her sold-out talk with Alice du Parcq (and if you couldn't go or were there but missed any of the talks: never fear! They were all recorded and will be on the Barnes Fragrance Fair YouTube channel when they're all edited. We'll let you know when they're up, but meanwhile you can watch last year's talks there, including the ‘Top of the morning' show we so loved doing.)Suzy chose:Shloksha Soapy HeartBased in Tunbridge Wells, founder Jay says “Moving from India to the UK in mytwenties, I do miss the immersive sensory joys found in everyday Indian culture.Sourcing and working with traditional Indian materials connects me to mychildhood—scented trips down memory lane!”Opening notes - red mandarin and grapefruitHeart notes - jasmine, ylang ylang, green grass and saffronBase notes – sandalwood, fruity musk, oudh“You slip on your fine silk robe, gorgeously patterned with tropical birds, andquietly pad along the hallway to the bathroom. Closing the heavy wooden doorwith a sigh of relief, you lean over the sparkling slipper bath, slide the plug inand turn both taps on full. Glittering beads of water dance in the diffuse light.You perch your hip on the side of the bath as your ears fill pleasantly with theroar and tumble of the cascading water. Your life is very busy and demanding,and you get few opportunities to indulge yourself. But a long, quiet bath is oftenwhat you crave.Your eyes glance along the rich turquoise tiled shelf as you ponder how to scentyour watery sanctuary. Antique crystal jars hold delicately fragrant floralsalts—you carefully lift their lids- one by one - and their enchanting perfumesmingle with the steam. But they're perhaps not exactly what you're in the moodfor.A waxed paper tablet of old-fashioned, handmade soap sits demurely at theend of the shelf. Fresh, brand new and unopened. Your fingertips softly caressthe crackling paper as you carefully unwrap it and the dense, creamy pebbledrops into your silken lap.You dip your hands briefly in the warm bath water and rotate the smooth soap inyour hands. Rich suds fly into the air, dense but light. Airy and iridescent. Yes,this is what you were looking for.”Jorum Studio Risso‘An independent fragrance brand founded in Scotland in 2019 led by Scottishperfumer Euan McCall.

AND she wanted to choose Olfiction ICONIC, but Alice had chosenthat, too. So... they compromised and both spoke about those incredible scents.We'll discuss them properly on the pod when the talks are up (and when Nicola'shad a chance to get her nose on them.)Nicola's been falling in love with wearing Juliette Has a Gun Not a Perfume allover again, for its pleasing, easy-to-wear character when worn alone, and for itsability to coax beguiling intricacies from other scents while also boosting theirlongevity.Another new launch Suzy's obsessed by is Essential Parfums Ambre Latteby Jordi Fernández“I envisioned Ambre Latte as a highly addictive overdose of my favourite amberwoods wrapped in a delicious swirl of almond milk. Infused with caramel, tonka,vanilla, and benzoin, this creamy haze lends the amber structure an irresistibleand unforgettable signature. A fragrance that draws you in… and keeps youclose."‘With Ambre Latte, Jordi Fernandez offers a unique and exquisitely refined takeon indulgence.​ The fragrance unfolds in a vaporous cloud of almond milk,delicately infused with roasted tonka bean.​ Indulgence settles in — irresistibleyet perfectly controlled — as a luscious dulce de leche caramel melts into theenveloping softness of vanilla, benzoin and white musks.​Very soon, the fragrance reveals its duality. Beneath the milky caress emergesan intensely addictive woody-amber alchemy. Ambrofix, Georgywood,Akigalawood and white sandalwood structure the composition, infusing it withdepth, sophistication and modernity. They extend the trail with sensual richness,leaving an unforgettable imprint — the perfect balance between gourmandiseand addiction.'Escentric Molecules Cologne OneSuzy described this as feeling like a Cologne that's been whizzed up in a SodaStream machine! The brand says: ‘Cologne One captures the freshness of a ginand tonic in a single, sparkling gesture: effervescent, bright, unmistakably clean.The fragrance lives in its top notes: juniper for the gin, lime and citrus for lift, atouch of bergamot and mandarin, a whisper of ginger for a delicate spiciness,and a hint of cucumber's neutrality to enhance the crispness without becomingliteral. It is freshness concentrated, transparent, and immediate.The heart remains understated: iris, rose, and hedione offer just enoughstructure to support the top note, allowing the bright citrus and juniper to linger.The dry down is linear, calm, and unobtrusive: Ambroxan, Iso E Super, and atrace of musk. Nothing competes, nothing distracts.“We have a very different approach to fragrance, so our first cologne capturesthe very unique and wonderful freshness of a gin and tonic. I think it's quite newwith that sort of freshness. It's the idea of the sparkling, effervescent gin andtonic first scent, this sort of your nose in the drink,” says perfumer Geza Schoen.Cologne One is a cologne reimagined by Escentric Molecules: 15% concentrationfor lasting freshness without leaving an overwhelmingly fragrant impression. It isrefreshing, refined, and gender-neutral....

Most psychiatric treatments for autism don't address what's actually happening underneath the diagnosis. They subdue. They don't repair.In this episode, I sit down with Karen Thomas of Naturally Recovering Autism to break down what stem cell therapy can actually do for children on the spectrum.Children with autism show impaired central nervous system circulation, active neuroinflammation on brain autopsy, and higher rates of autoimmune patterns in their families. Mesenchymal stem cells, MSCs, address all three at once. They stimulate angiogenesis to restore blood flow and oxygen to the brain, suppress pathological immune responses, reduce neuroinflammation, and secrete factors that activate the body's own local stem cells. I share a clinical case of a seven-year-old who went from diaper-bound and non-verbal to verbal, continent, and climbing stairs after a single IV treatment with birth-tissue-derived cells. We also get into why not all MSCs are created equal, why 200 million expanded cells overseas often underperform 20 million original cells, what the FDA's Section 361 actually means, and how I sourced and built the cell product used in my clinic through Chara Biologics.We close on why no stem cell protocol works in isolation. Diet, detox, nutrient status, and exercise are part of the protocol, not optional add-ons.If your child is on the spectrum, or you work with families who are, this is the mechanism and sourcing breakdown most parents never get.Joy talks about:00:00 What stem cell therapy actually is05:37 The three mechanisms underlying autism08:46 How MSCs restore oxygen to the brain10:54 From non-verbal and diaper-bound to talking and walking stairs16:25 Why your own bone marrow cells may not be the answer19:58 Are all MSCs created equal21:55 FDA Section 361 and what's legal in the US23:34 Why 200 million expanded cells underperform 20 million original27:39 Inside the sourcing and 89-question donor screening43:42 Why diet and detox decide whether stem cells workAdditional Resources✨ Listen to Naturally Recovering Autism with Karen Thomas: https://naturallyrecoveringautism.com/ ✨ Karen's free four-stage webinar for parents: https://naturallyrecoveringautism.com/freeworkshop Visit My Clinic: 

In this episode of Retail War Games, I sit down with Matthew Holman, the founder of Subscription Prescription. Matthew is a leading expert in helping brands scale their recurring revenue models and build sustainable, multi-channel growth systems. We dive deep into why the retail landscape has completely flipped over the last few years. Matthew explains why direct-to-consumer brands are now racing to get onto physical retail shelves to escape skyrocketing digital customer acquisition costs and build more predictable cash flows. We also crack the code on modern platform trends, discussing the true power of TikTok Shop, the role of Amazon, and why brands must treat new digital channels with a focused, purposeful startup mindset. Key Strategic Insights from our conversation: The Retail Flip: Why direct-to-consumer brands are moving to brick-and-mortar retail to secure predictable purchase orders and escape volatile digital ad costs. The Reality of the Digital Market: Understanding that direct-to-consumer e-commerce only makes up 20% to 25% of all retail sales in the U.S., with half of that market completely dominated by Amazon. Purposeful Multi-Channel Strategy: Why massive retail brands shouldn't just take giant, blind swings on digital, but instead approach new platforms with careful, starter-sized experiments. Cracking TikTok Shop: How to approach TikTok as a content-driven discovery platform, even if your product isn't traditionally "visual" or exciting. Two Distinct Industries: Why traditional brick-and-mortar operations and modern e-commerce require completely separate tech stacks, marketing strategies, and expertise.  

You've probably heard about peptides for anti aging, weight loss, and recovery, but oral peptides bring a different angle. Instead of injections, you're looking at a simpler approach that still targets growth hormone support, tissue repair, and overall longevity. The key is not just taking them, but knowing which ones work, like MK-677 and BPC-157, and how they fit into your routine. You also need to think about quality and safety. Sourcing from compliant pharmacies and following proper dosing matters more than hype. Microdosing, working with experienced practitioners, and understanding how your body responds can make the difference between real results and wasted effort. This is not about chasing shortcuts. When you combine smart peptide use with solid habits like nutrition, recovery, and hormone balance, you give your body a better shot at long term performance and healthy aging.   In this Episode, You'll Learn: Understanding Oral Peptides Clinical Trials and Peptide Effectiveness Natural Peptide Production and BHRT Anti-Aging and Weight Loss with Peptides Oral vs. Injectable Peptides Microdosing and Peptide Dosage Upcoming Event and Resources   About Dr. Nick Delgato: Dr. Nick Delgado, PhD, is a leading anti-aging expert, author, researcher, and clinician whose work centers on longevity, hormone balance, and functional medicine.

In this episode of the Woodpreneur Podcast, host Jennifer Alger sits down with Bob Kloes and Matt Schmitz of Kloes Specialty Hardwoods, a Wisconsin-based business specializing in curly maple, bird's eye maple, flame birch, and other figured hardwoods. What started as Bob's lifelong passion for custom furniture evolved into a lumber business when his wife suggested he start selling the stunning figured woods he had been sourcing for decades.

We also break down how blending, proof, and finishing choices shape a bottle, plus why the restaurant experience matters as much as the whiskey.• quick intros with Tony, Dylan, James, and chef Eric at the Grandview location• why a distillery restaurant and great cocktails drive repeat visits• the three High Bank locations and how each vibe stays unique• the speakeasy trend as an “escape” experience for whiskey fans• how Whiskey War is blended for taste, affordability, and availability• why blending has shifted from hiding flaws to building quality• pairing 88 proof Whiskey War with burrata, peach jam, and balsamic• stepping up to barrel proof with chorizo rangoons and spicy ranch• what double oaking changes and why it works with berry pancakes• pairing hot honey chicken biscuits with Double Double releases• how Amburana finishing works, why it moves fast, and how they control it• favorite pairings and what we'd want to try nextYou can find us at uh sealbox.com or website, highbankdistillery.com.Brunch food that actually makes whiskey taste different is rare, and we build a full lineup to prove it from the barrel house at High Bank Distillery in Columbus, Ohio. Sitting in their “war room” surrounded by barrels, we talk with the team behind Whiskey War and walk through how a distillery can turn tasting into a real experience, not just a drink at the bar.We dig into what makes Whiskey War work as a modern blend, why consistency and affordability matter, and how today's whiskey market is changing what's possible at the same price point. Then we get hands-on with proof and process: regular Whiskey War versus barrel proof, what double oaked releases add, and why “double double” style expressions keep winning attention. Along the way we hit the bigger debates that whiskey fans love, including blending for quality, the rise of finished whiskey, and how a brand can experiment without losing its core profile.The food pairing is the centerpiece: burrata with peach jam and balsamic, chorizo rangoons with spice, berry pancakes that unlock vanilla and syrup notes in double oaked whiskey, and a hot honey chicken biscuit that shows how oak and proof can mellow heat while amplifying depth. We also talk speakeasy culture, High Bank's three locations (Grandview, Gahanna, Westerville), and the kind of hospitality that keeps people coming back.If you love whiskey tasting, bourbon blending, barrel proof releases, double oaked whiskey, and smart whiskey and food pairing ideas, hit play.

Tariffs are squeezing your margins before you even ship a unit. Whether you're doing $8K/month in home goods or $800K/month in electronics, the sourcing landscape is shifting. Neil Twa dives into what a 30% cost increase from China means for your unit economics. Two sellers, same tariff pressure, but different strategies: a $40K/month home textiles brand and a larger electronics operator. Neil breaks down three actionable moves every seller can execute, no matter your scale. The sourcing map is evolving faster than most sellers are moving. Close that gap before 2026 hits.

She's 70 years old, holds a PhD she earned in her late 60s, and looks like she cracked the code on aging. But Dr. Catharine Arnston isn't selling a beauty secret she's sharing 17 years of research into two of the most scientifically documented superfoods on Earth: spirulina and chlorella.In this episode of SHE MD, Mary Alice Haney and Dr. Aliabadi sit down with Dr. Catharine Arnston, Chief Scientific Officer of ENERGYbits, for one of the most eye-opening conversations we've had on this show. It started with her sister's breast cancer diagnosis and a pivot away from a 25-year corporate career. What she found in the research changed everything she thought she knew about energy, brain health, aging, and women's bodies.This isn't wellness fluff. There are over 100,000 peer-reviewed studies on these two algae. NASA has been feeding them to astronauts for 50 years. The United Nations endorsed spirulina as the answer to world hunger. And yet most women in the Western world have never heard of them.Learn More Here: https://energybits.com/discount/SHEMD?rfsn=9096638.6abd9cc1&utm_source=refersion&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=9096638.6abd9cc1What You'll LearnWhy algae was the first life on Earth and why that matters for your bodyThe difference between macroalgae (seaweed, kelp) and microalgae (spirulina, chlorella)How spirulina creates cellular energy without the crash of caffeine or sugarWhat phycocyanin is and how this blue pigment behaves differently in healthy versus unhealthy cellsWhy mitochondria decline with age and how to protect them with nutritionThe role of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and why your body stops making it after age 30Why menopause damages women's mitochondria twice as fast as men'sHow chlorella detoxes heavy metals, glyphosate, aluminum, and other environmental toxinsWhy chlorella is essential for anyone on a GLP-1 or any weight loss journeyHow chlorella naturally supports serotonin, melatonin, sleep, and bowel motilityThe right dosage of each algae by age, condition, and time of dayWhy high heat in processing kills the benefits of most algae on the marketThe truth about excess stored iron, inflammation, and "rusting from the inside" after menopauseHow ENERGYbits are sourced in Taiwan in triple-filtered mountain spring waterHow to use algae for weight loss, sleep, brain fog, skin health, and longevityKey Timestamps00:00 Welcome Dr. Catharine Arnston & Why Algae Matters00:25 Catharine's Sister, Cancer, and the Origin of ENERGYbits01:49 Plant-Based Nutrition and the Otto Warburg Discovery02:46 Why People Don't Eat Vegetables (and What to Do About It)03:28 Why No One Knows About Algae Despite 100,000 Studies04:19 Why NASA Feeds Algae to Astronauts04:43 Algae Is Food, Not a Supplement06:45 "Aging Is Natural, Declining Is Not"07:08 Macroalgae vs. Microalgae Explained08:24 Why Lake & Ocean Algae Can Be Toxic09:27 Spirulina: Energy at the Cellular Level10:22 Why Algae Protein Beats Animal Protein10:49 Dosage 101: When and How Much to Take12:13 Phycocyanin: The Blue Pigment That Targets Unhealthy Cells14:34 The Electron Transport Chain & ATP (The "Ferrari" Analogy)15:48 Aging, Mitochondria & Cellular Decline16:13 Superoxide Dismutase (SOD): The Hidden Antioxidant17:53 Why Menopause Hits Women's Mitochondria Twice as Hard19:38 Brain Fog, Depression & Damaged Mitochondria20:37 Mary Alice's Family History & The Case for Prevention22:10 How Fast You'll Feel It & Mitochondrial DNA Regeneration23:16 Anti-Angiogenesis & Stopping Tumor Blood Supply24:10 Chlorella: The Body's Tow Truck for Toxins27:45 Chlorophyll, Hemoglobin & Building Your Blood28:35 Glutathione, Liver Health & Tryptophan29:03 Chlorella, Serotonin & Mood29:34 Chlorella for Bowel Motility30:25 The Athlete Protocol (NHL & NFL Dosing)31:12 Sleep, Melatonin & Why Chlorella Works at Night32:54 Chlorella for Chemotherapy Recovery36:01 Pricing, Daily Cost & the Discount Code36:45 Important: Talk to Your Oncologist Before Combining38:17 Algae for Weight Loss & GLP-1 Support40:32 Safety, Sourcing & Why ENERGYbits Are Grown in Taiwan42:20 Catharine's Trip to Taiwan & Why It Matters43:31 Excess Iron, Menopause & "Rusting From the Inside"46:07 Final Thoughts & Why Consistency Wins47:32 Absorption, Exosomes & Why Algae Works So Fast48:39 Dosage for Kids, Husbands & Pets49:41 Beauty Bits: The Pink Spirulina for Skin & Hair51:07 Mary Alice Starts Her Algae JourneyKey TakeawaysAging is natural, declining is notAlgae is food, not a supplement, so your body recognizes and absorbs it instantlySpirulina nourishes & energizes, chlorella detoxes & repairsYou need both algaes for different reasons, especially after 40Most brain issues trace back to damaged mitochondriaWomen lose antioxidant and hormone protection twice as fast as men in menopauseThe right dosage matters more than the right ingredientConsistency beats intensity, your body is not a light switchMost supplements are artificial, your body wastes up to 90% of themToxins live in your fat, so detoxing is part of any weight loss journeyThe science exists, the connection between scientists and women is what's missingMother Nature provided answers long before pharmaceutical companies didWhat you can't see at the cellular level is often what's hurting you mostGuest BioDr. Catharine Arnston is the founder and Chief Scientific Officer of ENERGYbits, the medical-grade algae company she launched 17 years ago after pivoting from a 25-year international corporate career to research plant-based nutrition for her sister, who had been diagnosed with breast cancer. Her research led her to spirulina and chlorella, two microalgae backed by more than 100,000 scientific studies, and to a mission of bringing clean, hand-sourced algae nutrition to women, families, and elite athletes around the world. Catharine earned her health coaching certificate from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and went on to complete her PhD in her late 60s, becoming one of the most credentialed and outspoken advocates for algae nutrition in the world. Her upcoming book, Love Your Health to Bits with Algae, set for an October release, distills 17 years of research into accessible, "science with sarcasm" guidance for the everyday reader. Catharine lives by the philosophy that "aging is natural, declining is not" and is on a mission to make algae as common in the Western world as it has been in Asia for the past 60 years.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Nathan is the founder of Sourcify, the fastest growing sourcing platform backed by Y Combinator that helps hundreds of companies manufacture products around the world. In the past, Nathan has brought dozens of products to market, ran three e-commerce companies. He's even sold one of them and has been part of projects on Kickstarter, raising over seven figures. He writes for media outlets like entrepreneur, The Next Web Business. Com, and can frequently be seen on CNBC. Nathan also used to live in China and he speaks Mandarin fluently. So with that introduction, welcome to the show, Nathan.Nathan 00:00:41  Josh, thanks so much for having me on.Josh 00:00:43  I'm sure with your experience you have probably some good negotiation tactics. you've probably have a few case studies of people that you've helped, navigate getting better payment terms with their manufacturer. So would you mind just kind of diving in and sharing more there?Nathan 00:01:00  Yeah, totally. I mean, I think first off, you got to understand how valuable your business is to your factory.Nathan 00:01:06  Right. So I would do that by really trying to understand, you know, you make up most of their production output, you know, of all the factories, production volume that you work with, what percentage are you? Is it 30%, 10%, 50%, 80%. You know what? What is it? And then you kind of understand where you're at from a negotiation position, right? Because if you're a brand that makes up the majority of a factory's output, obviously you have a much stronger lever to pull if you're a kind of minority customer for them or a smaller customer for them, then, you know, maybe that's not even the right factory for you to be working with because you don't have a strong lever to pull. So I think, you know, number one, you've got to see eye to eye to eye with them in terms of forecasting and helping them better understand. Well, hey, you know, this year, this is how many units I'm planning to produce. And I think there's a big disconnect between supply chain teams and factories when it comes to forecasting, because a lot of supply chain team members don't understand.Nathan 00:02:01  There are a lot of brand owners don't understand. You know, that factory has to go purchase raw materials to produce your products as well, so they have their own cash flow challenges when it comes to, you know, making sure they have enough factory workers to produce your product, making sure they have the raw materials to produce your product, and then they aren't getting paid, you know, for 30 or 60 days to produce your product if you're negotiating your terms. Well. And so you've got to understand it from their standpoint as well of, you know, hey, how is this going to help their factory grow? Because it can also put them in a cash flow position, which is challenging. And so that's something you need to be aware of when you go into your negotiations. So I think number one, I would just make sure you're seeing eye to eye with that factory that you're working with to understand, you know, how big of a customer am I for them? You know, what does their cash flow look like? And have I done a good job making sure they understand my forecast? And that's when I would go into the negotiation of saying, hey, you know, we're trying to grow and to grow.Nathan 00:02:58  We need more, you know, cash flow to scale up our ads, to get more customers right. And so that's how I would approach it. I think if you're a brand that is, you know, a smaller customer like sub 10% of a factory's output, it's going to be really hard for you to negotiate that. And honestly, in that position, I might actually, you know, kind of take my option to of, you know, trying to ask yourself, am I the best customer for this factory? And can I find a factory where I'm, you know, a much larger customer that I can grow with more? so that's that's another kind of question that I would ask of, trying to understand, like if you already know your small customer for this factory, are they even the right factory for you? and then, you know, it's just.Josh 00:03:41  Real quick, before you continue on that, my question would be on that. How do you have that conversation to say, hey, by the way, how much of your business do I make up, right? Like, that could be an awkward conversat...

Matt Faircloth talks to Brandon Virgallito and Justin Spillers about how their unique acquisition methodology forces deal flow through direct owner outreach and high-volume cold calling, rather than waiting for deals to come to them. Justin and Brandon share their step-by-step process for building a repeatable, scalable system for property renovations, from establishing standardized finishes to creating a lean, fast-turn process that adds instant value to each unit often at a fraction of the cost. They also break down their disciplined approach to market selection, focusing solely on Ohio's sleeper markets with large growth potential, avoiding the craziness of overheated markets and cranes.
